Summary
Dante Jones disappears disappears immediately before a big fight with a $500,000 purse that could have made him a title contender. Jack suspects it’s a stunt, but Vivian, a Jones fan, can’t believe that the Dante would go down that road. Then it’s learned he has made 2 million dollars in the past five years, but he only has $6000 in his bank account. The search continues when his younger brother, whom he is always bailing out of trouble, also disappears.

Ron: I swear to God, I don’t know anything.
Danny: A hundred points for feigning ignorance.
Samantha: Two years you’ve been steady, responsible, reliable. One night you take off. Half an hour later a boxer disappears. Now I don’t think that’s a coincidence, Ron.

Samantha: Don’t stop now, you’ve almost got the dinette set.

Samantha: You train every waking hour, you get beat in the head for a living, and all the money you win gets stolen by some corrupt manager. And the benefits are what? Getting to wear satin shorts to work?
Danny: Don’t knock it ’til you try it.
