Flashback to where it all starts. The protagonist and his friends discuss the influence of Mr. Arnie's establishment on the neighborhood. They are aware of young girls, as young as 10 or 11, being turned out to drugs and prostitution as a result of Arnie's pressure and influence. Likewise, the band of do gooders have observed an influx of foreign girls, speaking little English, in and out of the neighborhood, and in particular, the Gentleman's Club. The friends agree that they will rid their neighborhood of Arnie's insidious influence for good.
The group plot to assasinate Arnie. They owe a great deal of debt to one of Arnie's special girls. She has her own motive, but aiding in the overthrow of Ms/Mr Arnie will help achieve the goal. She helps the would-be assasins, but, unfortunately, the plot is foiled. All but one of the boys escape--our hero.
Ms./Mr. Arnie challenges the hero to a cage battle. If the young man wins, he takes the grand prize $100,000.00. If the young man loses, well... There is only one loss in the cage battle, Arnie warns: death. Little does Arnie know, a far greater prize hangs in the balance than $100,000.00. Arnie's influence on the neighborhood will be, forever, thwarted by the plans of our hero and his band of friends.
The cage battle begins with ten men and a host of observers. Though our hero fights valiantly, he loses the battle. A second battle begins, for change tossed by the rich, corrupt observers. However, in a final grandstand, the protagonist performs a dance--part fight, part battle--which captivates the audience. Meanwhile, the friends kidnapp Mr/Ms Arnie.
The special girl turned renegade awards the young hero with the money, though technically, he has lost the prize. Meanwhile, Mr./Ms. Arnie is hustled out of the neighborhood for good.
