Till Debt Do Us Part

With his divorce settlement on the horizon, Archie needs to raise funds, and quickly. He soon spots a potential goldmine in up-and-coming boxer Carlo Rocks. But, after picking out a worthy opponent for a fight - local lad Ryan Doyle - Archie suddenly makes a nasty discovery - Carlo's manager and lover is none other than his estranged wife, Delilah. Ruffled but still in need of money, he decides to go ahead with the fight and asks Jamie to train Ryan to match standard.

Delilah is furious when she hears about Archie's scheme, but the fight must go ahead. As Jamie trains Ryan, Archie sells the contents of his warehouse to raise cash for a big bet. But disaster strikes when Ryan gets his first pay cheque; he heads straight for the nearest bar, where Delilah hatches a cunning set-up. She calls Carlo to meet her in the bar, knowing that he will see Ryan flirting with her. As expected, Carlo goes ballistic and beats Ryan up. With Ryan in hospital, Archie's only hope is to get Jamie to climb into the ring instead.

Jamie trains hard for the fight, but on the night of the match, Archie asks him to swing the result. It's the only way he can be guaranteed to win his bet. Jamie can't believe Archie's nerve, but throws the fight as planned. Stewing over the incident later, he gets so angry that he seeks out Carlo and beats him unconscious. The police are called and Jamie is promptly arrested - can Archie put aside his greed and come up with a plan to save his mate?
