Over the course of the remaining months, The Master transforms Stan into a lean and mean fighting machine much to the dismay of Mindy who cannot see past The Master's other 'abilities' such as eating Scorpions at the dinner table and smoking a hundred cigarettes a day. Stan is finally shipped off to jail and he soon realizes that prison is not at all like he imagined. It's worse! Thankfully Stan has been trained well and he soon brings the warring gangs together and establishes peace inside the prison walls.
