## Story

Marty Scurll is backstage "Lasst week..." (sic.) He is complimenting Matt Jackson on his muscular gain since matt became a heavyweight as he looks at the torso of someone flexing. Matt's voice says that it is down to diet, exercise and protien supplements. As the camera pulls back, Matt is actually stood to one side and it is Brian Cage that is actually flexing. Matt asks Brian to move as he is getting in the shot and Matt and Marty prepare to reshoot the piece. The opening titles run.

Cody and Brandi Rhodes are pouring out cereals at a hotel. Brandi pours milk into her bowl first and then prepares to add te cereal. Cody asks what she is doing and Brandi replies that she heard it works. When Cody asks who from a tweet from Flip Gordon appears on screen and Cody reacts angrily.

Matt is at home with his kids, packing his bag for another trip. Matt asks his kids if they are excited to be coming on the trip with him and if they know who he will be wrestling that weekend. Matt says he will be fighing Kenny Omega but his kids are upset and aks why he is fighting uncle Kenny. Matt is downcast and says that sometimes you just have to do things you don't want to and that hopefully they will be better friends afterwards.

Kenny is in his hotel room. As he packs his bag for the show Kenny is watching a promo of Matt hyping their upcoming bout, Kenny sighs as he picks up his bag and leaves.

Matt and Nick arrive at the venue in Long Beach and are surveying it from the parking lot. Cody is there and says tonight is The Young Bucks' night and nobody elses. Matt looks unconvinced as Cody walks off.

Adam Page is in an In-N-Out burger bar with Cody. Cody asks how it felt to be humiliated by Joey Ryan in the eyes of the world. When Hangman reacts Cody says he wanted to know how Hangman's burger is. Later backstage Marty asks if Hangman is ready for his match with "Dickblade"? When Page asks what, Marty asks about Hangman's match with "Switchblade" that night. Page has a flashback to Joey Ryan getting the better of him in the ring. Later Hangman is agitated and Matt asks what is wrong as he seems a little pissed off. Page reacts angrily and Matt apologises and says it is better to be pissed off than pissed on. Page has another flashback to Ryan pouring urine in his mouth, and storms off.

Later in the dressing room Cody presents the group with matching weight belts for their bouts that evening. Matt, Nick, Marty and Hangman all have one and excitedly review them as Cody leaves. Nick doesn't look impressed though and the others are confused by his reaction. In the empty arena Matt is watching a play through of the hype video for The Bucks' bout. It outlines the fractures that have grown in Bullet Club and implies that Cody is to blame. Images from the match follow, showing Kenny pinning Matt for the victory. Cody comes out and confronts Matt after his loss and when Nick tries to intervene Cody pushes him to the floor.

Back in the dressing room Matt, Nick and Marty are sat looking beat up. Cody and Hangman come in and Cody asks if they are OK. Matt gets angry and asks how Cody can come to see them after what he did in the ring. Cody says that he was trying to motivate them and when he pushed Nick over it was because he thought it was Kenny that was getting involved. Cody apologises and offers his hand. Matt grudginly accepts it and Nick does likewise. Cody and Hangman leave and the others sit and look at each other before Nick says that he doesn't think they can trust Cody any more, as the episode ends.
