Patrick's alarm goes off at 4:55, and with all the drinking Theresa did that's got to qualify as a hate crime, although it could be that that's helping her sleep right through it. After that brief moment everyone who has to get up too early experiences where you sit on the edge of the bed for a moment hating your life, Patrick gets up...

...and then we cut to the gym, where he's bobbing and weaving around the speed bag. However, when Stacy Keach enters, he tells him it's too soon for him to be working with that thing, and then says he got some tapes on Jojo, and Patrick will be fine. However, Patrick tells him things have gotten complicated...

...and we cut to the office, wherein Stacy Keach complains that Brennan is "another crook." Patrick, however, says it's either that or the Morales fight, and Stacy Keach snits that Johnny is to blame. "He's always trying to do the right thing, but he...he just gets in his own way!" Perhaps a bit charitable, but I wouldn't take too much issue with that description, particularly since he adds that "you just don't do that kind of shit to your own family!" He asks where Johnny is, and doesn't seem at all put out that Patrick told him not to come around, and I'm glad, given all the annoying favorite-son stuff, that there's come a point where Stacy Keach can forget about Johnny and put his focus on Patrick. Patrick says he doesn't want Barry involved, prompting Stacy Keach to settle my earlier question by saying that Barry will get his piece at the end of the day, which Patrick seems to know already. Jojo then appears, and after he and Patrick greet each other warmly, Jojo, who definitely seems like the friendly sort, says that he's up in Jersey City now, and then goes serious as he adds that since Barry let him go, things have been slow for him. On that note, Patrick says they've got something for him, and Jojo at first thinks Patrick's talking about sparring, which he's not too proud to do, but Patrick says they can do better - he's coming back, and he wants Jojo to be his first opponent. Jojo thinks he's joking, but Stacy Keach assures him that eight weeks from Saturday, they could be in the ring together. Jojo thinks this means Barry came around on him, but Patrick clarifies that they have a silent partner, and Barry isn't involved. This gives Jojo momentary pause, but when Patrick suggests he think it over, he firmly says that won't be necessary -- he's got to provide for his family. I hope he keeps his insurance policies updated, then. He and Patrick grin and shake...
