♪ He's about as sweet as it gets ♪
[in Spanish] You better hope for a boy. Raising girls is a nightmare.
[Carmen in English] Wow. Thanks, Mama.
Here. Let me help you.
Oh, thanks.
I don't think I'm ever gonna get used to that.
Better than trying to tear each other's faces off.
Anthony, get down here! That little shit ate every last cannoli.
Sorry, Amanda-san. Had midnight snack.
You ate a dozen cannolis?
They were mini. Very small. Uh, bite-sized.
Yeah, I know what mini is.
You know, just… take this to the living room.
Feel free to keep walking from there.
The guy flies in for the weekend to kill Terry Silver,
stays for another three months.
That's normal, right?
Hey. Hey, those are for the party.
It's just one.
Since when do you drink just one?
You hoping for a boy or a girl?
Ah, either way, I'm good.
Took me a bit, but I'm a pro with boys, and girls are easy.
[Daniel] I wouldn't be so sure about that, Johnny.
Whatever. Chicks dig me.
[laughs] Good luck.
[knocking on door]
Who's 30 minutes early?
Who was it?
Nobody there. Just this.
[faint ticking]
Wait. You hear that?
[ticking continues]
Is it… ticking?
[ominous music plays]
Kreese.
Come on. You think Kreese would walk into a FedEx Kinko's with a bomb?
He did let a live cobra loose in your dealership.
I heard you never caught the damn thing.
The wrangler said that was prob-- That's not the point.
What about Silver? I can see him pulling a Unabomber move like this.
Don't move it! It could have a dead man's switch.
Remember Murtaugh on the crapper in Lethal Weapon 2?
The key is staying completely and totally… still.
[ominous music crescendos and fades]
I have rearranged pastries.
Tray is now balanced.
[crashing]
[Carmen gasps]
[soft rock music plays]
The package came early.
-Guess it's a girl. -[chuckles] I can't wait to meet her.
And for her to meet her dad. [chuckles]
It's a girl!
-Ow. -I'm a girl dad. You're a girl brother.
[all laugh]
Where's Daniel?
[Johnny] Oh, yeah, uh…
[soft rock music continues]
[all laugh]
I told him not to move.
[laughter continues]
I'm too old for this shit.
[laughter continues]
[sinister music plays]
[Kim] My students' abilities far exceed what you had in America.
Our training here is more intense.
-More precise. -[student exclaims]
-And more demanding. -[Kreese chuckles]
[Kreese] What do you call that combo?
[speaks Korean]
Viper attack.
It is designed to penetrate even the most advanced defense.
And when executed correctly,
it will leave the opponent's head vulnerable.
Yoon Do-Jin.
His family has trained in our dojang for generations.
He wears the geum baeji because he is our best student.
Whatever you ask of Yoon,
he will execute to perfection.
Impressive.
[suspenseful music plays]
[yells]
[exclaims]
[in Korean] That's how you do it!
[in English] Kwon Jae-Sung! You did not follow the lesson.
[scoffs]
It's a waste of time.
Just go straight for head.
No head, no fight.
No shortcuts.
And for your defiance,
you will have a new assignment.
Whatever it is, I can do.
I am sure you can.
Go and clean my grandfather's toilet.
[students laugh]
[Yoon laughs]
[Kim in Korean] Back to work!
[man speaks Korean]
[Kim in English] Kwon has always been a troublemaker.
His rebelliousness is a distraction.
A team is only as strong as its best fighter.
Master Kim has challenged me to bring out the best.
I will handle your distraction.
[tranquil music plays]
[Johnny] All right, all right. You got the kata down. Let's see you use it.
Fighting positions.
Ready?
Fight!
[tense music plays]
[Johnny] Come on, fight.
[Sam grunts]
What is this, Ice Capades? That's enough. Fighting stance.
-Twenty-five reverse punches. Ready? -[Tory] Yes, Sensei.
-Begin. -[Sam] Hai!
Your girlfriends are broken.
What the hell did you guys do?
We didn't do anything. They're just friends now.
Yeah, they went from war to Cold War to peace.
Yeah, piece of crap fighting.
[Sam] Hai! Hai!
Sensei, I get that Miyagi-Do is about avoiding conflict,
but if they're not gonna go hard during training,
how are they gonna lead us to victory at the tournament?
They're not.
They're gonna get their asses kicked.
All right, tomorrow's the big day, boys.
Finally gonna find out which country's hosting the Sekai Taikai.
Germany would be cool. My dad's getting stationed there next month.
Oh, sick.
My money's on Taiwan. Gonna get my Din Tai Fung on.
-There's a Din Tai Fung in Glendale. -Word?
[Tory and Sam] Hai! Hai!
Love the smell of karate in the afternoon.
-I think that's pond scum. -[Daniel chuckles]
-[Johnny] Hey. -Hey.
Your daughter's a pussy now. So is Nichols.
Last I checked, Miyagi-Do doesn't mean fighting like girls.
-You know what I'm saying. -Sure.
-I thought you said girls were easy. -They are.
Okay, then, girl dad.
Work your magic.
[Amanda chuckles] This should go well.
Lee. Call your dad. Tell him you're having people over tonight.
I wish you could see this, Mr. Miyagi.
A whole dojo full of kids learning your lessons.
-[sighs] Need new mattress. -[bed squeaking]
Tempur-Pedic. Very comfy.
Almost finished?
Yeah. Still feels weird to box up Mr. Miyagi's stuff, but
if anyone's gonna move in, I'm glad it's Chozen.
Uh, cellular signal not good.
Uh, did Miyagi-san run fiber optic Internet?
It's a little rustic, sure, but it's just temporary
till you go back to Okinawa after the tournament, right?
Uh, not going back to Okinawa.
Come. Help me move bed.
Okay. Go.
[mysterious chiming]
What's that?
[mysterious music plays]
This belonged to Miyagi-san?
It must be his. He… he built the place.
[mysterious music continues]
[music fades]
I'm sure you are all curious to who our visitor is.
Sensei Kreese is one of the strongest senseis
to ever train at this dojang.
He brings an invitation
for us to test our strength against the best fighters in the world.
You will give him your full respect and attention.
Is that understood?
[all] Yes, Sensei!
A long time ago, I had a student.
I trained him to be the best of the best.
He dominated every opponent he ever faced.
He was destined to become a world champion.
And then, one day…
it all changed.
He lost
to an insignificant, scrawny little runt
with maybe six weeks of training.
And why did he lose?
Because this opponent had more heart.
So, class…
how do we defeat an opponent who has more heart?
-More practice, Sensei. -[Kreese] No.
-More offense, Sensei. -Wrong.
Have heart yourself, Sensei.
Or kill their heart with strong kick to ribs.
[in Korean] You do not speak!
[suspenseful music plays]
[in English] Kwon, is it?
It seems you don't take me seriously.
Perhaps… I need to show you just how serious I am.
[suspenseful music continues]
[music fades]
Does Devon have a home dojo?
No idea. But I am wearing waterproof shoes
in case Johnny throws us in a creek or quicksand.
You made it.
We're in the basement.
Welcome to Miyagi-Do After Dark.
-I don't think you should call it that. -Miyagi-Do Nights?
No.
[Johnny] Dark Nights?
Wait. Is this a slumber party?
I've never had one before.
I didn't know what color nail polish you guys like, so I just got them all.
Since you two are friends now, we can have a girls' night.
-With you? -Hell yeah. I'm a girl dad now.
I brought cookies and tampons and everything.
Come on inside. Grab a sleeping bag.
The Mr. T one's mine.
Sensei, this isn't me complaining, and I know you love a good theme, but
I'm not sure how a sleepover is gonna help them get their edge back.
Their friendship's caused them to lose the eye of the tiger.
They need conflict.
I used to hear about Ali's slumber parties.
Nonstop drama.
Put a bunch of high-school girls in a basement, mix in a little gossip,
pretty soon you got something that makes Scarface look like Bambi.
[chuckles]
[mysterious music plays]
Mr. Miyagi kept this hidden,
so opening it would be an invasion of privacy. Right?
Are you kidding? We have to open it.
The curiosity might actually kill me.
Sometimes better not to have answer.
Right now, anything is still possible.
If we open, we face truth.
Guys, this is Mr. Miyagi we're talking about.
Possibly the greatest man who ever lived.
How could you not wanna open his buried treasure?
[mysterious music continues]
[Amanda] Mr. Miyagi was a boxer?
From China.
There must be some amazing stories behind all of this stuff.
Well, May 3rd, 1947.
"Police are searching for the culprit in a violent robbery and assault."
"Jim Watkins of Lodi was hospitalized
after a severe beating and the theft of a valuable necklace."
"He identified his attacker as Keisuke Miyagi."
Keisuke Miyagi?
Miyagi-san had brother?
Not that I know of.
Look.
That's Mr. Miyagi,
but the name is wrong.
And he was born in 1924, not 1918.
My mom says she's 71, but she's really 73.
People lie about their age all the time.
691 Hill Street.
If Mr. Miyagi did live there, maybe we can go find some answers.
[ominous music plays]
-[Kreese] Are your lungs bursting yet? -[all] Yes, Sensei!
Good. You can thank Mr. Kwon for that.
I do not wish to question your methods,
but is it really worth wasting an entire day of training
just to punish Kwon?
This is not a punishment.
It is a lesson.
And they all will learn.
[ominous music continues]
[in Korean] We're tired of your disrespect.
You want my respect? Earn it.
We are here to train.
I will teach you to keep your mouth shut.
[laughs]
I have nothing to learn from you.
Oh.
Have it your way.
[groans]
[Kwon groans]
[in English] That's enough for today.
Come back tomorrow at sunrise.
[grunts]
You said you would bring out the best in my students,
that you could handle Kwon's distractions.
And now my top student is distracted.
Only through pain
does a champion reveal himself.
[Johnny] Who's ready to have some fun?
[pop music plays]
Ready? Fight.

[Amanda] I feel like an old-time PI.
-Wish I had a fedora. -[Chozen] I have trench coat.
[Daniel] All we have is an address on a fake ID from, like, 70 years ago.
No one around here is gonna know anything.
[Amanda] Internet said this business has been around since the 1940s.
If there's anyone alive who might be able to explain all this,
it's worth the tank of gas.
Unless Miyagi-san buried secrets for a reason.
Would it help if I said we could get sandwiches at Philippe's when we're done?
Oh, that is big help.
[rap music plays]
Spot. Take your fist.
Nice.
Hey, we're looking for the owner.
[man] Fuck off.
Awesome.
Friendly place.
I go get answers.
You know, I don't think it was such a good idea bringing him along.
He's been such a wild card since Kumiko didn't call him back.
Based on the welcoming committee, maybe it's good that we have a wild card.
Hey, excuse me.
Listen, I know I have the right address, but we figured if anyone knew anything…
Oi, Daniel-san, we have runner. Let's go.
Wh-wh-why are we chasing? Chozen?
[dramatic music plays]
Yeah, this one's my fault.
[dramatic music continues]
[Daniel] We just wanna talk!
I will cut across Hill Street and outflank.
What? We're running plays now?
Slow down!
[man] Make me, cop. You can't prove a goddamn thing.
About what?
[both grunt]
Police brutality, man.
-You do not know meaning of brutality. -[man groans]
All right. Chozen, ease up. We're not the police.
Hey, hey, hey. I don't know what you're up to, and we don't care.
-We just have some questions. -Yeah, right, Officers.
I'm only here because my mentor might have had some connection to your gym.
I know this is a long shot,
but have you ever heard any stories about or… or know the name--
Miyagi.
[mysterious music plays]
Miyagi.
[chuckles] Have you seen this one?
It looks like the dog's actually talking.
[Devon] This night really took a turn for the worse.
Literally, there's no drama.
Have faith, Lee.
I know how girls think.
It just takes one little spark.
[barking on video]
-[phone rings] -[Tory] Why's Robby calling you?
[exhales] I don't know.
What did you do?
Stole Robby's phone.
It's a nuclear option.
Probably just a butt dial.
[cell phone chimes]
What is it?
It's a text from Miguel.
What does it say?
"Hola, Mamacita."
"How about you drop the zero and…"
"…get with the hero?"
Robby's a zero. Miguel's a hero. I'm not saying that as me.
I'm saying that as Miguel. I stole his phone too.
Yeah, it's not that hard to follow.
-[Johnny] Hey, hey, what's going on? -What's behind your back?
My hands. Nothing. Just my hands.
-[cell phone rings] -Lee, your phone's ringing.
Oh, wow, multiple lines. I didn't know you were such a social butterfly.
You're catfishing us.
I don't know what that is, but catfish is gross.
You've been messing with us. Now you're trying to get us to start fighting.
We just wanted to help you get your edge back
so things can go back to the way they used to be.
You think things were better when we hated each other's guts?
No. Maybe just south of that, like a really strong dislike.
-I thought you were Miyagi-Do now. -I am Miyagi-do.
Look, we're inside with pillows, chocolates, and air conditioning.
I want you to hate each other, but in a friendly way.
-I'm calling an Uber. -Same.
I can't believe that didn't work.
[ominous music plays]
[Kwon] Hey.
You try to get students angry at me?
You think I'm afraid of them?
No, I don't.
I don't think you're afraid of anybody.
I think you're cocky and disrespectful.
But you combine that with your skills and strength,
I think you can be one of the most terrifying fighters
in the Sekai Taikai.
I don't understand.
Just take all that anger inside you
and give it purpose.
[ominous music intensifies]
[Kreese] Prove to the others that you are the best fighter in the class.
And there's only one way to do that.
[in Korean] What's the matter, Kwon? Haven't had enough?
I have had enough. Of you.
[exciting music plays]
You only know what you've been taught.
You can't think for yourself.
It makes you formidable.
But also predictable.
[Yoon yells]
[exciting music continues]
[Yoon groans]
Where are you going?
Come on.
Come on! Hurry up!
[all grunt]
[exciting music plays]
[ominous music plays]
[Kwon yells]
-[Kwon yells] -[Yoon yells]
Oh, the teacher's pet is back.
Keep talking, bitch.
[dramatic music plays]
[Kwon chuckles]
[dramatic music continues]
[Kwon exclaims]
It's mine.
[man groans]
[in English] You got me good there, guy.
A cheap shot to my blind side.
Don't be baby.
I thought you were the IRS.
Uh, I have a difference of opinion with Uncle Sam on the gym's finances.
I'm still just trying to understand
why Mr. Miyagi would be a silent partner in a boxing gym.
He and my grandfather were bros.
The way my pop-pop used to tell it, um,
this gym wouldn't have been possible without Miyagi.
But why use this as a home address? And what's with the different first name?
When people have fake documents, it's usually 'cause they're hiding something.
At least that's what I've heard.
Mr. Miyagi had nothing to hide.
-Then why did he flee the country? -Your information is wrong.
Miyagi-san flee Okinawa for America.
No. Miyagi definitely flee America. Heard something about a robbery.
Beat the shit out of some mope.
Needed my pop-pop to help him get lost, if you know what I mean.
Whoa. This is it.
I heard he stole some pricey necklace.
-Wow. -I never knew this side of him.
Look.
Your guy messed up. But don't we all sometimes?
Pop-Pop said he trusted Miyagi with his life.
He didn't throw around that kinda praise. He was a tough old SOB.
I wish I had more I could tell you.
-My Uber's five minutes away. -Yeah, mine too.
My guy's got, like, a 4.99 rating.
That's gotta be double Sensei Lawrence's.
And three times his rating for hosting a slumber party.
Can't believe he stole their phones.
He actually thought we would fall for that.
It's not like you haven't tried to steal my boyfriend before.
I was drinking.
And regardless, I… I know that was a huge mistake.
But it was, like, over a year ago.
-So, what, that makes it okay? -The shit you pulled after wasn't.
Oh, yeah, here it comes. Little Miss Perfect LaRusso.
-You attacked me at school. -You attacked me at prom.
[Sam] You broke into my house.
-You put me in the hospital. -It's happening.
I tried to make things right, and you attacked me again.
-[Sam] No, you started this whole thing. -Here we go.
I did? Because the first time we ever met,
you accused me of stealing your mom's wallet.
And even after you learned that it wasn't me, you never apologized.
I was already the new kid with no friends.
And then as soon as I connected with someone, you had to come in and ruin that.
[tense music plays]
You… you're right.
[music fades]
I'm sorry.
Oh, come on.
I was jealous and distrustful, and
I made a really shitty call, and
I should have apologized.
Long before now.
Yeah, well…
I'm sorry too.
Things went too far. And if I'm being honest, it was my fault.
I can't believe what I did to your arm.
It's not that bad, actually.
It's pretty much faded.
A lot like this thing between us. Right?
Yeah.
I really am sorry.
Me too.
[gentle music plays]
No.
Could this night get any worse?
[Devon] Cheer up, Sensei.
Maybe tonight didn't go as planned, but
that could be for the best.
I don't know what's worse. Finding out he hurt someone or…
never knowing the full story.
Man at gym said Miyagi-san was good man.
He was good man, Daniel-san.
Yeah, a good man who… committed robbery and assault.
That's one story out of a million.
It's one that he kept from me, just like everything else in that box.
We keep things from our kids, don't we?
Are we ever gonna tell Sam and Anthony about Cancun?
Definitely not.
Uh, what happened in Cancun?
You're never gonna find out, Toguchi.
Look, the best we can do
is make the most of the time we have with the people we love while they're here.
Yeah, I know. I know.
Good night, Chozen.
[in Japanese] Good night.
[gentle music plays]
[in English] Make most of time.
Hmm.
[gentle music continues]
[ominous music plays]
There is only one way
to defeat an opponent who fights with heart.
By being heartless.
Skill will only go so far.
To pierce the heart
of your enemy…
you need to harness
all that hate inside you.
[ominous music continues]
Are you ready?
Yes, Sensei.
[Kreese] Good.
Because your opponents will throw everything they've got at you.
Then we give them no mercy, Sensei.
Good.
Warm them up.
[in Korean] Viper attack. Begin!
[all shout]
[in English] No more distractions.
Very impressive.
With Kwon in line,
no dojo stands a chance against us.
[ominous music continues]
But there's still one more piece of the puzzle left.
[Johnny] Fight!
[both grunt]
[dramatic music plays]
Now, that's what I'm talking about. What the hell got into them?
I guess their breakthrough last night
took care of whatever was holding them back.
[both grunt]
Remind me to never doubt you again, Sensei.
It's like I always say.
Girls are easy.
I know there must be more to this story.
And I know whatever you did, you had your reasons.
But why didn't you tell me the truth?
[Hawk] Hey, everybody. Gather 'round!
The announcement just came out.
All right. Who's ready to find out where we're going for the Sekai Taikai?
Congratulations on your admission to the Sekai Taikai.
We're excited to finally announce the host city for this year's competition.
Martial arts has always had a rich history in the East.
And the Sekai Taikai has held many tournaments throughout Asia.
[exhales] Soup dumplings, baby.
But in recent years,
European teams have shaken up the competitive landscape,
bringing a whole new style to the event.
I'm feeling Germany.
[Gunther] Within that region,
there's one nation that has continued to stand tall amongst the pack
for its growth and dominance in both junior and senior competitions.
It gives me great pleasure to announce
this year's Sekai Taikai
will be held in Barcelona, Spain.
[cheering]
[laughs] Sick!
-All right. -Yes!
[uplifting music plays]
That's awesome.
As you prepare for your journey, we'll also present the rules of registration.
We intend to test your dojo's quality, not quantity,
and each dojo must select six fighters to compete.
[Hawk] Wait, six?
[Gunther] These six fighters will participate in team events,
with one boy and one girl serving as captains
to enter into the individual competitions,
which will be televised around the world.
We wish a hearty bona sort to all competitors,
and we look forward to seeing you in Barcelona.
What exactly does that mean?
[tense music plays]
It means we don't all get to go.
[dramatic music plays]
[music fades]
[exciting music plays]
[music fades]
