After saving the life of Sally, a sex worker who is nearly murdered by her businessman lover, he receives an unexpected phone call from his former lover Ava Lord, who left Dwight four years prior for a wealthy tycoon, Damien Lord. Years before " The Big Fat Kill", Dwight McCarthy attempts to put his violent past behind him, working as a private detective and leading a life of complete sobriety, and struggles daily to refuse his inner demons. He leaves Johnny alive, preferring to let him suffer, and Johnny swears revenge. However, he remarks that he only considered his dead son Roark Jr., his flesh and blood. Roark reveals that he recognized Johnny as his illegitimate son. They toss Johnny out of the car, and the Senator shoots him in the leg. In payment for the humiliation he suffered at the card game, Roark takes back his money, and uses a pair of pliers to break the fingers of Johnny's playing hand. He fights them off, and tells Marcie to meet him at a hotel, and he is escorted into Roark's limousine. He walks her home, and Roark's goons suddenly attack him.

Instead, Johnny takes Marcie out for a night on the town. One other player, the corrupt police lieutenant Liebowitz, warns him to flee the city. Johnny repeatedly wins in the high-stakes game, and cleans the senator out. Taking a young waitress, Marcie, with him as a good luck charm, he buys into the backroom poker game led by the all-powerful Senator Roark. He immediately hits the jackpot on multiple slot machines. Johnny, a cocky young gambler, arrives in Sin City and heads to Kadie's place. After slitting the boy's throat, he considers his coat and realizes he cannot remember how he acquired it. He questions the leader about being called "Bernini Boy", and learns that it is the brand of coat he is wearing. With the assistance of the deadly residents lurking in the shadows, he dispatches the frat boys. He follows the two surviving frat boys into The Projects, the neighborhood where he grew up. They flee, and Marv follows them, stealing a police car on the way, which he crashes into their car, leading to his blackout and memory loss. When Marv intervenes, the leader of the frat boys shoots him in the arm, calling him " Bernini Boy", which Marv mishears as "Bernie". Stepping outside, he encounters four rich frat boys burning a homeless man alive. He retraces his steps, recalling that since it's Saturday, he watched Nancy Callahan dance at Kadie's Saloon.
Marv regains consciousness on a highway overlooking The Projects, surrounded by several dead young men and a crashed police car, with no memory of how he got there. Unlike the first film, A Dame to Kill For was a box-office bomb, grossing $39 million against its $65 million production budget, and received mixed reviews from film critics. The film was released on August 22, 2014, on 2D, 3D and RealD 3D.
