Poor Communication Kills | |
| The Set-Up / int_1c445e86 | comment |
Poor Communication Kills: Tiny doesn't tell Stoker the fight is supposed to be fixed before it starts. It's ambiguous whether Stoker would have agreed to it beforehand, but by the time he finds out he's already fought two rounds and is too invested. | |
