"Women are nothing but trouble. Married women are nothing but trouble piled on top of trouble."
If there was one lesson that Mick Michael learned from his ignoble father, that was it. Even with that pounded into his head, Mick still liked the ladies. Married ladies, especially. Though he'd begun branching out into the separated and recently divorced ladies.
While Mick might hate to admit it, his father was often proven right. No more so than when his estranged niece shows up at his door, begging for his help. Simply being within one hundred yards of his niece was enough to put him in prison. But she's family.
"You take care of your own."
That's another lesson, courtesy of Mick's father. Taking care of his niece was what started Mick's trouble in the first place. It was the reason why he had no job, no money, no long-term relationships, and only a single friend.
"That others may live."
It's the creed Mick has lived by for years. There will no doubt be trouble in store, but Mick is incapable of turning his niece away in her hour of need. Sure, he's an ex-con that no one trusts, but he's also ex-military, and entirely capable of taking care of himself.
This time, the trouble ends with a gun pointed at Mick's head and a trigger being pulled. And that was a good day.
