Ep. 6: The Kid Faces Barrier Freeman in a Senior-Friendly Wrestling Match

6

Following his victory at the Hollywood Bowl, the protagonist advances to a second round bout against the enigmatic Barrier Freeman. This opponent, described as half man and half older man, engages in wrestling to promote a senior-friendly society, acting as a sort of senior avenger. Freeman has purchased half the seats and distributed them to elderly attendees, creating a hostile environment where the crowd opposes the kid. Consequently, Barrier Freeman physically dominates the match, manhandling his younger opponent. The narrative questions whether the kid can reverse the situation before elimination from the tournament and hints at a potentially darker nature behind the senior’s benevolent facade.
