Million Dollar Baby Scene 4 Summary

Chateau Scrap Iron

  • It's a new day at the Hit Pit, and Maggie's working on the heavy bag again. Frankie walks by and, without stopping, tells her she's not very good at it. Thanks, boss!
  • Up in the office, Frankie tells Scrap to give Maggie all of her nickels money back.
  • When he finds out she's paid six months' worth of dues in advance, Frankie changes his tune.
  • Frankie and Scrap watch Danger stare at a bottle of water down on the main floor. He looks very confused.
  • That evening, Scrap's walking around the gym, turning off the lights, when he hears somebody still punching. Yep, it's Maggie.
  • Scrap explains that he's not a trainer, but he can show her how to hit the bag properly. And he does. He also gives her a speed bag to borrow.
  • Then Scrap shows Maggie where he lives: in a super-duper modest back room right there at the gym.
  • Maggie asks if she can stay and work a little longer. Scrap says it's cool.
  • Cut to Maggie riding the city bus home again. This time she's eating a sandwich and smiling broadly. That must be one heck of a sandwich. Just kidding. She's got an in at the Hit Pit.
