Reese:
Rocky was... Political?

Brad:
Rocky was left-handed and for his re-match with Apollo Creed, Burgess Meredith had him train as a righty. Rocky goes round after round with Apollo Creed as a righty until Burgess Meredith shouts 'Now' and Rocky swings with his left.

Reese:
[Frustrated, confused] What the f*** are you talking about?

Brad:
Ms. Lansing, all I'm saying is that Mackenzie MacHale shouted 'Now' and Will started swinging away.

Charlie:
[Laughingly] Reese! Please, leave Mac out of this, I'm Burgess Meredith I shouted 'Now' [drunkenly slurs an imitation of 'Mickey' from Rocky II] This guy, he don't just wanna beat-cha, he wants to murder ya! [Normal tone] That was my best Burgess Meredith impression.

Reese:
[Angrily] Is there something funny about all this?

Charlie:
Yeah! We've been talking about Rocky II!
