Here Comes The Boom Page #5

---

his opponent here at the pier.

This young man is from

Boston, Massachusetts.

He has a record

of zero victories

and one defeat by knockout.

MMA fans, here he is.

Let's hear it for Scott Voss!

Here we go. Here we go.

Okay, let's go.

Come on. Let's go.

You can do this.

Block those knees, Scott!

Block them! Block them!

Pull him in close!

Time-out! Time-out!

What time-out?

Time-out?

There's no time-outs, guy.

Come on, let's go.

Put your hands up!

Come on, defense!

Wait! He kicked him

in the bells!

Ref, take a point!

Would you come on?

Man, are you okay?

He just kicked my

left nut into my throat.

Where's my stool?

What stool? You're in

charge of the stool.

We didn't have

a stool last fight.

I didn't make it out

of the first round last fight.

I'm a little confused about

my job description.

I'm a music teacher.

I don't know the rules.

I can't do this.

What are you doing?

You can't lay down. Get up.

I'm exhausted.

Yeah, that's exactly the

message you're sending him.

Hey, you can't lay down, man.

Can you continue?

He's fine.

Hey, I'm talking to him.

All right, let's go, fella.

Get up, Scott.

It's so soft down here.

So soft.

Okay, remember...

Defense.

All right, I heard you already.

Next time, bring the stool.

Okay, okay.

All right, we're ready now?

Come on, Scott.

You ready?

Let's do it! Come on!

Defense!

Watch out!

Keep those hands up!

Put your hands up!

Hands up, man!

Hands up!

Yeah, he's not listening.

Hello!

I'm talking here!

Watch out!

Nice job!

Okay, there you go.

Pull him in close.

Okay, that's right,

push him away.

Don't look at me.

Look at him!

Listen to me. You're giving

him too much space.

To take away his power, you

have to keep it in a clinch.

Got it?

I'm trying.

Defense.

Stay strong, Scott.

One more round.

Okay, it's raining.

It's over.

No, it's not.

This isn't baseball.

You fight!

This is stupid.

Fighter, are you ready?

Are you ready, chief?

I got to be honest,

I'm really not.

I'm out. I'm out.

Yeah, yeah, he's ready.

It'll blow over.

All right!

Let's fight!

Perfect.

Jump on him!

Jump on him!

Use the fact that

you're slippery now!

Don't let him take you down.

Okay, get away.

Get away.

Oh, come on!

Swim! Swim away, Scott!

Get over there! Get over there!

All right,

pencils down, people.

Let's go. Hand them in.

Let's get them up.

Let's go.

Let's bring it in.

Really? Really?

You don't even...

That's how you do it?

Malia.

Yeah?

You missed,

like, three answers here.

Come on. What's going on?

You're smarter than me.

Hey, what's the...

What's the matter?

My father is

making me quit music.

What?

But why?

He said I have to

work in his restaurant.

I mean, he doesn't understand.

When I moved here,

I didn't know English.

I had to learn everything

all over again, you know?

So I used songs

and stuff to learn.

Besides Filipino,

the only language

I knew was music.

It helps me remember.

If that makes sense.

Malia, it makes perfect sense.

I don't want to quit it.

Then you got to tell him that.

Look, you know what you do?

You tell him your teacher

won't let you quit.

He thinks school is

just a waste of time.

But it's not.

Come on, Mr. Voss.

You said it yourself.

Learning this stuff

doesn't matter.

I got to go.

Okay, what are the

three branches of government?

Three branches?

All right, three branches.

Yeah.

I got this. Don't tell me.

Oh, hey, you got to eat.

You have an hour

before the fight.

Oh. Hey,

you got my oatmeal?

I do.

The thing is

that it's not here.

It's in my classroom

right next to my briefcase.

Three branches...

The legal, the...

No, no, no, no, no,

don't count that.

Wait, wait,

you forgot my oatmeal?

Well, I brought the stool.

I got to eat, man.

Well, we can swing back.

No. Hey, stop it.

We don't have time now.

You said branches, right?

Yeah, three branches

of government.

What am I going to do here?

I got to eat something.

Oh, you know what?

I have applesauce I made.

You see it back there, Niko?

It's on the back.

Yeah, yeah, got it.

Come on, three branches

of government, buddy.

Do not throw away

that Tupperware.

I'm not going to throw away

the Tupperware, okay?

Is there cinnamon in this?

No.

Ooh! I got it.

Democrat, Republican

and Libertarian.

Not even close.

No!

Okay, last fight was better.

You lost,

but you didn't get hurt.

So, remember, the word

of the day, defense.

Close the gap,

and if he shoots...

Hips down.

Keep your hips down.

That's right.

All right, here we go.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, wait.

They didn't come for us yet.

Let me see what's going on.

Hips down.

- Yeah.

- Nope.

This isn't you.

What do you mean,

this isn't me?

This is my song.

This is him.

It's his song.

Hey, he's got the same song.

Boom!

Wow. He's good.

Whoo!

I don't believe this.

He stole my song.

I bring the boom!

Well, tonight,

he's bringing the boom.

Look, we both can't

have the same song.

Come on,

we got to get ready, guys.

No, no, you gotta

get me another song.

What?

Go, please,

go tell them to

play another song.

Get you another song.

What? I need a song.

I got it.

Yeah?

Congress, Senate and State.

Okay, again, not close.

All right, can we stick

a pin in this, please?

I know! I'm sorry, but we

didn't study last night.

I'm falling behind.

What the heck is this?

Holly Holy, Neil Diamond.

Went platinum in 1969.

Who cares?

Excuse me. I do.

It got me through

a very difficult time.

It sounds like a revival.

Yeah. Blue-eyed gospel.

Extremely intricate genre.

It picks up.

Come on.

Okay, we got to go.

Let's go.

Yeah!

All right, it's Scott!

It's Scott.

Oh, he's in the house!

Yeah!

Scott Voss!

Hey! Hey!

Whoo!

Stand up!

Scott, he's a killer!

Everybody up!

It's the Scott Man!

Yeah. It's happening!

Yeah!

He's going to kick 'em.

Oh, he's fierce.

Here we go! Yay!

No, no! Defense!

Come on, now!

Come on, Scott!

Don't grab the fence!

I'm not even

grabbing the fence!

Keep your hands up!

Ow!

Tie him up!

Come on, Scott!

Keep your hands up!

Come on, get up!

Get up, get up, get up!

Getup! Getup! Get up!

Go! Defense!

Now hit him!

Ow!

Oh.

Fight it! Come on.

Oh. Oh.

Defense, buddy!

Come on!

Lock the elbows.

Ten seconds, Scott.

Ten seconds.

Watch the Kimura.

Watch the Kimura. Watch...

That's illegal.

It's legal. It's legal.

Sorry.

Okay, watch it.

Get out of it.

Fight it. Fight it.

All right, that's enough.

Saved by the bell.

Come on, come on.

Let's go.

Sit down.

Just relax. Relax.

Oh, my gosh. My shoulder.

What are you doing?

Stick to the game plan.

I'm sick of

the game plan, okay?

I'm sick of defense. I...

Listen to me.

If you get caught, you're done.

We have a lot more fights.

Oh, man.

Tie this guy up.

Protect yourself.

Okay. Yeah.

Are you ready?

Are you ready?

Fight!

All right, Scott,

this is your round!

Oh!

Get your hands up!

Tie him up, Scott!

Keep your hands up!
