The scene opens up to see Charlie wearing a grey jogging suit and Craig Whatman standing next to him with a towel around his neck ..
Whatman: Listen kid This here is your training but first..Why do you have to wear that stinkin' sweatsuit?
Charlie: It brings me luck, you know?
Whatman: Brings you luck! I'll tell you what it brings, it brings flies! Now here's what I want you to do... I want you to chase this little chicken.
Charlie: Hey yo, Craig, what do I got to chase a chicken for?
Whatman: First, because I said so. And second, is because chicken-chasing is how we used to train back in the old days. If you can catch this thing, you can catch greased lighting.
Charlie: Well, I'll do it if you say so, but it ain't very mature.
Whatman: Yeah, well neither are you!
Charlie runs around the room trying to catch a chicken but can't.
Whatman: Alright maybe you aint ready for that yet. Lets try some sit ups.
Charlie:One, Two, Three, four...
Whatman: Now remember, I want 500 hard ones. Go!
Charlie: Where was I, seven or eight?
Whatman: When I'm done with you.. You're gonna eat lightnin' and you're gonna crap thunder.
After an exhausted training session Charlie gets home and passes out only to be awoken by Craig Whatman late at night.
Whatman: Hey Charlie. It's three in the morning. It's 3am, kid. Uh, I wanna tell you this once and then, uh, I ain't gonna say it again. But Charlie, you got another shot. At, uh, I don't know the biggest title in the world, and you're gonna be swappin' punches with, with the most dangerous fighter in the world; Corey Hart. And just in case, you know your brain ain't workin' so good. All this happens pretty soon and you ain't ready. You know you're no where near in shape. So I say, for God's sake, why don't you stand up and fight this guy HARD? Like you done before, that was beautiful! But don't lay down like this! Like, uh, I don't know, like some kind of mongrel or something. Cause he's gonna kick your face in pieces! That's right! This guy don't just wanna win, you know, he wants to bury ya, he wants to humiliate ya, he wants to prove to the whole world that you was nothin but some kind of a freak the first time out. He said you were a bum! Well now I don't wanna get mad, but I think you're a hell of a lot more than that kid! A hell of a lot! But now wait a minute, if you wanna lose this thing, if you wanna lose it, then damn it I'm gonna lose it with ya.
Charlie: Gee Thanks...
The next day We see Charlie training with a sparring partner. Craig Whatman is watching on.
Whatman: Slip the jab will ya, Slip the jab, That's right, That's it, Hey I didn't hear no bell, Alright that's right slip the jab, That's it mentalize, See that bum in front of you, You see yourself doing right and you'll do right, That's pretty, That's very pretty, TIME, Come here Charlie, My god your ready ain't you, That Corey Hart won't know what hit him, Your gonna roll over him like a bulldozer, You know kid I know how you feel about this fight that's comin up, cause I was young once too, And I'll tell you something if you wasn't here I prolly wouldn't be alive today, The fact that your here and doing as well as your doing gives me what do you call it motivation, Huh to stay alive, Cause I think that people die sometimes when they don't want to live no more, And nature is smarter than people think, Little by little we lose our friends, we lose everything, we keep losing and losing until we say Aw what the hell am I living around here for I got no reason to go on, But we do kid, Boy I got a reason to go on, And I'm gonna stay alive, And I will watch you make good, And I'll never leave you until that happens, Cause when I leave you you'll not only know how to fight, You'll be able to take care of yourself outside of the ring too is that ok, Now I got a little gift for you, Look at this, See that, This here is the favorite thing I have on this earth and rocky marciano gave me that, You know what it was, His cufflink, And now I'm giving it to you, And it's gonna be like an angel on your shoulder, If you ever get hurt and you feel like your going down, This little angel is gonna whisper in your ear he's gonna say Get up you son of a bitch, Cause Whatman loves you, Ok go after him kid, Go after him
Charlie starts attacking his sparring partner with anger as if his sparring partner was a large side of beef.
Whatman: That kid is gonna do just fine..
The next scene shows Charlie outside stretching in his jogging suit and he goes for a run and you witness him running all over Philedelphia and he runs up the stairs and jumps up and down and raises his arms in the air as if in vioctory!!
Bum: You got some change?
Charlie: Sure here ya go.. (charlie gives him a couple quarters..) Hey Uh do you know how I get home?
