The Fort Myers Misdemeanors' run of good fortune at the end of Cruisin' for a Bruisin's first half[link] would not hold through the bout's second half. Shortly after the commencing whistles the penalty box relinquished all of its Bruise Crew inhabitants, now seeking instead Misdemeanor skates. Which allowed Tampa's Crew to augment its lead to (64-126) before Fort Myers' Krystal Death and Lil Debbie Smackcakes shut Reeces Tear Ya to Pieces down.
These penalty problems continuing on throughout the next few jams, with both teams either filling the boxes to capacity or leaving it completely empty. These problems still could not slow down the Misdemeanors' Deathrae nor Jackscratch Fever though; both working wonders in keeping the pack open for tireless jammer Ali-Skator. Skator's luck couldn't hold this long, as a brutal Kemmy Killmister shot forced her to cut, shades of Ram 'em Noodle's first half penalty coming back to haunt the other team as Noodle herself enjoys the ensuing power jam (68-126).
Noodle's revenge jam aside, the Misdemeanors pressed on. Fire & Ice, one of Fort Myers' stand-out skaters against Bradentucky, managed to evade both Muse of Bruise and Kitten Kicker long enough to score a grand slam. Determined, Muse of Bruise kept at it, finally catching her with a shoulder big enough to end the jam (81-150).
Ali-Skator was the next to impress, as she cut into the (remaining) deficit deeply with her jam. Powered by Fort Myers' uberjammer-cum-blocker Heinz's defensive barrage of blows, Ali slid right through the pack. Calling it after she eventually slid into a beautiful cross-pack Foxy del Fuego block (97-150).
The brutal hits kept increasing in frequency as Cruisin' for a Bruisin' wound down. Ali-Skator later finding out how being on the receiving end of a vicious Reeces Tear Ya to Pieces block feels. Too far out of the pack, Reeces would spend a minute simmering in the sin bin for it, only to return and box Ali out; goading the Misdemeanor into backblocking.
All this while Kemmy Killmister, Muse of Bruise, and Lesbolina Jolie teamed up on a entrapped Blitzkrieg. The team wearing down the surrounded Fort Myers blocker as they simultaneously stifled her teammates' attempts at out-running a Ram 'em Noodle power jam (97-170).
Noodle would race herself into her own share of punishment a couple of jams later. Peppered by a succession of shots courtesy of Heinz and Krystal Death, Ram 'em was then finished off with a Jackscratch Fever/Heinz blindside sandwich. All while Mess U Up Buttercup kept the rest of the Bruise Crew from coming to their jammer's aid.
Too riled up to stop, Jackscratch Fever kept delivering hard hits well into the next jam! This time roughing up Reeces, who was also catching a double dose of damage from Fire & Ice. Fort Myers looking to win by forfeit by eliminating every Bruise Crew jammer (115-184).
All this roughhousing would catch up to them though, as Fire & Ice finally catching a shot she couldn't brush off. Helped off the track, Fire & Ice served as a grim reminder of what can happen as fellow jammer Ali-Skator found herself in the center of a Dr. Break-N-Hurter, Kemmy Killmister, Ram 'em Noodle hitstorm (115-188).
Kitty Danger ending the bout before any permanent damage could be dealt, securing lead jammer on the last jam and calling it (119-200).
After a few moments of intense soul-searching, the MVP Board found the Bruise Crew's Bad Credit and the Misdemeanors' Deathrae responsible for all the defensive carnage on the track. This as Ram 'em Noodle and Heinz picked up honors for their ability to score while avoiding said carnage.
