Ep 6. Last Man Stamping

In Bad Ink season 2 episode 6, titled "Last Man Stamping," Vegas tattoo artist Dirk Vermin and his friend and sidekick Rob Ruckus take on their latest challenge in the form of a sports fanatic named Tom. Tom has been a loyal fan of his favorite team for years and wants to show his love by getting a tattoo of the team's logo on his calf.

The problem is, Tom chose a less-than-reputable tattoo artist who cannot spell the team's name correctly, resulting in a misspelled tattoo. Dirk and Rob are shocked at the mistake and immediately start to brainstorm how they can fix it. They come up with a plan to incorporate the existing tattoo into a larger design, hoping to make it less noticeable.

Meanwhile, Dirk and Rob receive a call from another client in need of their services. A man named Kenny has a tattoo of a skull and crossbones on his back that he got while serving in the military. The issue is that the tattoo was done in prison, and Kenny is worried about the health risks associated with it. Dirk and Rob offer to cover up the tattoo with a new design, but they quickly realize that Kenny's skin is incredibly sensitive and prone to scarring.

As they work on Tom's leg and Kenny's back, Dirk and Rob reflect on the impact that tattoos can have on a person's life. They talk about the importance of making sure that tattoos are done by reputable artists who use safe and clean techniques.

As the episode progresses, Dirk and Rob continue to work on Tom and Kenny's tattoos, and they run into a few roadblocks along the way. They must make adjustments to their designs to accommodate Kenny's sensitive skin, and they encounter some resistance from Tom when it comes to the size and placement of his new tattoo.

In the end, Dirk and Rob manage to complete both tattoos to the satisfaction of their clients, and they even manage to make them look better than they did before. The episode ends with Dirk and Rob reflecting on the importance of being able to make mistakes and learn from them in their line of work, and they express gratitude for the opportunity to help people improve their lives through their tattoos.
