Synopsis
Shoeshine is asleep in bed, waken up by a phonecall by his roommate Polly. He wakes up and puts on his clothes, meeting Polly in front of a cafe to eat before making plans to see The Beagles preform at the bar Ringside.

A Beagles poster flies off a telephone pole and onto the foot of Taptap. He speaks to his husband, Riff Raft, about attacking the place. He agrees. Night falls and Shoeshine, Polly, Riff, Rocky, Sandy, Taptap, Pretzel and Fox arrive at Ringside.

Ringside is attacked by the gang. Shoeshine, Polly, Beagles and agent try to escape out of the fire exit, but are stopped by Taptap, Fox and Pretzel.

Taptap knocks out Shoeshine by hitting his head against outside concrete. Scotty gets shot in the arm, but not in the bone, and Tubby gets his arm broken. Shoeshine loses Underdog’s ring.

The next day, Shoeshine wakes up and convinces Polly to go down to the police station with him to help with this case. They meet The Hunter, arguing with his boyfriend, about Ringside.

After gaining his help, Shoeshine and Polly confront the Beagles, who do not have any evidence. On the walk home they encounter Tennessee Tuxedo. Polly points out they may have a lead and Shoeshine lets him stay in their apartment.
