Having said all that, this is the way I heard it, episode number 366. They put him in a cage. Angie's little brother made no attempt to disguise his contempt for the four men who had summoned him.

threw a handful of papers onto the floor and said,

Before we get started, I got just one question. Then Angie's little brother spoke the words that got him

five years in a cage. Four little words that led to five years of screaming, raving, and swearing at everyone around him.

Four little words that sealed his fate.

Did he deserve it?

Absolutely.

You can't just sit around Asbury Park for the rest of your life, chasing Jersey girls.

I'm stuck,

just don't know what to do with myself.

Truth was, Angie had always worried about her little brother.

He was small for his age and had been bullied as a kid.

And now he was 17 with no prospects, no plan, and no job.

It'll pay the bills and you might like it.
