Zo visits New York City to bare witness to some of the shadier parts of the city: the behind the scenes speakeasies that go unnoticed by common bar flies,  the underground clubs where you got to know somebody who knows somebody to get into, and the shadiest parts of all: the secret world of the bare knuckles nock down drag out street fight clubs that nobody talks about. Zo sees an amazing fighter in one of these fights. Seemingly out of nowhere and speaking a strange accent, this mystery man makes short work of some of the toughest brawlers in the Big Apple. At the end of the fight a man proclaims, "Lionheart! King of the Jungle!" Lionheart, it seems, is the guy that you'd want to put your money on. Any other wager would be the wrong bet.
