Point, Iron Dragons.
Point, Cobra Kai.
Tory Nichols with another point for Cobra Kai.
A decisive victory by fan favorite Zara
who secures another point for the Iron Dragons.
Zara! Zara! Zara!
- LaRusso, let's go. - Remember to stay focused.
Don't be afraid. Get in there. Get in there. Be aggressive.
Just take it slow.
No, not take it slow. We gotta go after 'em.
- Go after her! Stop backing up! - Slow down.
Johnny, will you let me sensei too? They need to stay balanced.
Well, we need to start going big, or we're goin' home.
Miguel Diaz of Miyagi-Do fighting courageously,
refusing to go down.
Point.
And the final point of the round goes to the Iron Dragons.
Everyone, listen up.
All right, this morning's event was tough,
but let's not get discouraged just yet.
We have two more events today.
Eliminations don't begin till the second one.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
If that wasn't the elimination round, what is?
Getting our heads cut off with swords?
We knew this wasn't gonna be easy.
We're going up against the best dojos in the world,
but don't forget
you guys are one of 'em too.
Yeah, so start fighting like it.
Johnny, come on, man.
The best thing you can do right now
is just clear your minds, get some rest, you know, put this behind you.
You got this, all right?
I believe in you.
All right, let's go.
Hey, listen, I'm gonna go check in on Chozen.
Why bother? The way he's been puking all morning, he won't be up all day.
I still don't get why he thinks drinking himself sick
is gonna get him over his heartbreak.
'Cause people don't always take the right approach.
- Like the way you've been sensei-ing. - Here we go.
You tell them to take it easy when they're getting buried alive.
Yelling at them will not make them fight better, okay?
They need encouragement and focus.
They need points.
This is a tournament, remember?
If we end up at the bottom of the rankings going into the elimination round,
we might as well say adios.
Johnny, we cannot keep arguing like this.
Not if we wanna beat these other dojos.
The Iron Dragons have fighters from around the world.
Their sensei is a former three-time champ.
I don't care. He's a pussy. I'm not scared of him.
Yeah, well, he's certainly not gonna be scared of us,
seeing that we can't even figure out how to sensei together.
I've been letting you do your go-take-a-nap-find-your-balance bullshit,
but clearly it's not working.
How do you expect these kids to master Miyagi-Do
if one of their senseis keeps calling it bullshit?
Know what's bullshit? Letting them keep losing
'cause you care more about honoring some dead guy's legacy
than doing what'll actually help them win.
Mr. LaRusso?
- Someone left this for you. - Thank you.
Holy shit.
What? Is that the bill from the minibar? Chozen should pay.
- No. I gotta go. This is important. - More important than the tournament?
We still have a few hours. I'll be back before the next event.
All right. Don't come back until you get your damn head on straight.
Well, what do we have here?
Someone's in a hurry.
What, are you running away after your dojo's brilliant performance?
Well, I totally sucked out there.
We all did terribly.
Yeah, but I landed flat on my ass.
God, I can't believe I'm making such an embarrassment of myself.
It would help if our senseis got on the same page.
Johnny needs to start working with my dad better.
Well, I mean, I don't think it was all Sensei Lawrence's fault.
What's up, everyone? It's your queen of karate here.
Just finished our second Sekai Taikai event,
where the Dragons absolutely slayed.
Although it was awesome
to see other badass girls of karate fighting out there.
Anyway, let's see if any of these other dojos there try to dethrone us.
And to all my fans, I'm here to win for you.
So stay tuned. I'll post again after the next event.
Zara out.
Sorry, I only do intros on my stories for fighters who win their events.
It's a brand thing, so don't take it personally.
Wow.
"It's a brand thing."
What if we just skip the rest of the events?
Hit Las Ramblas, pick up some churros?
What? You're already giving up?
Okay, well, let's be realistic here.
There's no way that we can win.
At this point, I'd rather not lose any more brain cells.
Oh my God, we get it. You're going to MIT. Let them know about your rank-ass farts.
No, no. [sputters] That was not me.
Just saying. Whoever denied it supplied it.
Hey, Miguel, dude. You okay?
You fought really good.
Thanks, bro. Yeah, I'm... I'm good, but I don't know about Robby, man.
I don't know what's going on in his head but he's not fighting the same.
He's probably bummed out about Tory being on Cobra Kai.
He needs to get over it. At this rate, it's not gonna matter if we advance
'cause he's gonna be fighting for us in the finals.
We're screwed.
I don't know if it means anything, but... we all think it should be you out there.
It's true. Yeah.
What?
Uh, nothing, no.
Uh, we were just sleuthing the cold case of who cut the cheese last night.
And as we all know, whoever smelt it...
...dealt it.
Wait, so let me get this straight, Daniel.
You're on your way to meet
some mysterious, potentially dangerous fighter
in the middle of a country where you don't speak the language?
Hablo un poco de español.
- Plus, I have Google Translate. - Daniel, don't be cute.
I thought we agreed to move on from digging into Mr. Miyagi's past.
That's before I learned about the headband.
Oh, so now we're letting ancient karate apparel drive our choices.
When I first met Mr. Miyagi,
he told me he was against tournaments.
Now I find out he probably fought in the biggest one in the world
during a time of his life he never spoke about.
His wife and newborn child had just died.
Well... I can only imagine what he was going through.
I know. If this guy knew Mr. Miyagi, he could shed some light on what happened.
I mean, come on, I gotta at least talk to him.
Look, I get it, but just...
Couldn't this have waited?
I thought you had two more events today.
This is when Serrano could meet. It's not far. I'm gonna be back in time.
Who knows? I may get some insights that could help with the tournament.
Just be careful.
Love you.
I will. I love you too.
Address is up there.
Are you sure it's correct? Tourists don't come here.
Sí.
I shouldn't be long. Do you mind waiting here?
Espera aquí?
Hey, hey!
I said wait!
I'll take one of those muffin thingies.
Magdalena.
- What did you call me? - It's what you're eating.
I'll take four eggs, hold the yolks. And no salt.
Hey, you know what? You're not the only one who speaks Spanish.
Yo también.
Actually, it's, uh, Catalan.
That is what they speak here in Barcelona.
It's "Barss-elona," dipshit.
Of course it is.
Why you gotta be such a pain in the ass at every buffet?
Well, because how we fuel our bodies matter.
I teach my students by example
to eat nutrients rich in protein and antioxidants
so they perform at their peak.
Maybe where you're from, they only eat crap like this.
You don't know shit about me or where I come from.
I know Americans.
Coddled, arrogant,
privileged.
You have no idea what it is like to sacrifice,
what it's like to go hungry.
Even for one meal.
Everything in your life is empty calories.
Then maybe it's true.
You are what you eat.
Yeah? I'm gonna take these empty calories, and I'm gonna shove it right up your--
Attention Sekai Taikai participants.
The next event will begin in 90 minutes.
Good news is your dojo won't be around much longer to waste everyone's time,
as you'll be eliminated tonight.
Bullshit. You just better hope you don't run into us out there.
We'll show you a thing or two about where we come from.
I won't hold my breath.
Senor?
Oh jeez.
Only five euros.
You scared me. Uh...
Sure.
Gracias.
You're welcome. Thank you.
This must be the place.
Dad? Where are you? I'm getting worried. Please call me.
Faster! Let's go!
Stop!
What are you doing wrong?
Again.
You're wasting my time.
Eyes here! Focus!
You were supposed to be here 15 minutes ago.
I was looking for my dad. Seen him?
He stepped out. Guess he got caught up or something.
It's probably for the best.
In this final points round,
competitors will try to knock their opponents off their platforms.
Once you have fallen, you are out.
Points are determined off of wins, losses, and time.
Final rankings after this event
will determine placement in tonight's elimination round.
We will now call up the first group of fighters.
All right. Listen up.
Looks like I'm taking charge, so we're doing things differently.
No more waiting around like scared little bitches,
waiting for them to come to you.
All right? You go at them. Aggressive. Knock 'em off first.
Those platforms are pretty narrow. My dad would want balance.
Yeah, well, your dad's not here. All right?
It's time for us to start scoring some points.
Sora Haruto from Hirobukan on platform one.
Devon Lee from Miyagi-Do
on platform two.
All right. Don't let me down, Lee.
Yes, Sensei.
You got this, Lee. Be aggressive.
Come on, Devon!
Come on, Lee. Don't sit back. Strike.
Lee out. Time, ten seconds.
We need to do better. Let's go.
After that, you all need to step up, all right?
Come on. Let's do this.
Help! Get me out of here!
Please. I don't know who you are, but you can't do this.
I'm an American. There must be some kind of mistake.
No mistake.
This was planned? You work for Serrano?
I just need to ask him a question about my sensei.
Please! I need to get back to my students!
Keene out. Time, 45 seconds.
All right, Miguel. You're our last chance for points.
Come on, let's get it done.
Phan out. Time, 40 seconds.
Oh crap.
Sensei?
Sensei, did you see that knee?
It's too little, too late, man.
We're near the bottom of the standings. There's nothing to celebrate here.
What?
Hey! Where the hell you think you're going?
Back to the hotel to wash off this disgrace.
You're not getting off that easy. Locker room. Now.
What I saw from you just now,
it wasn't karate.
It was weakness.
You fought like little lambs waiting for slaughter.
We keep going like this, we get eliminated tonight.
Some of you will put this behind you.
But some of you are gonna carry this for the rest of your lives.
Knowing you had this chance to make something of yourselves.
But instead, you crumbled under pressure.
And you're gonna go on to live shit lives in shitty apartments with shit jobs.
And always have to live with this failure.
So if you wanna save some humiliation,
why don't we just skip the next round and catch the next flight home?
What is wrong with you guys?
Where's your fight?
Aren't you gonna stand up for yourselves?
You keep blaming us like this isn't on you too.
If my Dad had been there, we never would've lost like that.
- Yeah, well, he didn't show up. - Probably because of you.
You keep disrespecting him, trying to prove your way is better,
when it's so clear that we should've been using Miyagi-Do.
- You shouldn't even be wearing that gi. - Hey! Don't talk to my sensei like that.
Your sensei got you knocked off the board in ten seconds.
I would sit down if I were you.
You're not helping us. I don't even know how you made this team.
Well, I, for one, will be putting all of this behind me when I'm off to MI--
Shut the fuck up about MIT.
Some of us care about winning the tournament. Be nice if you did too.
Guys, can we cool it? This isn't helping.
We need to focus up.
Maybe you should listen to your own advice.
Got something to say?
I already did.
Hey, I'm not finished.
No offense, but I'm pretty sure we've heard enough from you.
Guys, come on.
Robby.
Sorry, Dad.
Come on! Let me out!
Just tell your boss I knew Nariyoshi Miyagi.
I'm sorry, bud.
I wanna get out as much as you do.
I am such an idiot.
He led me down the wrong path this trip. Now I don't know if I'm ever getting out.
Not even you can help me.
- Sir? - Just give it to me.
There you are, sir.
Johnny.
Looks like things are going swimmingly for you at Miyagi-Do.
Where's your partner?
I hope he didn't run into any trouble.
Hey, um, Sensei. Can I talk to you?
Hey, what's wrong?
I just...
I just... I just wanted to get here so badly.
To... to prove to you and everyone that I'm a badass,
but I ended up doing something I regret.
And I hurt someone.
And... and... and for what?
I knew I couldn't beat Kenny,
so I had to cheat to make sure I would win.
And now I'm here, and I'm getting demolished out there.
I can't compete with the others.
I don't deserve to be here.
Hey, hey, hey.
Come here.
Listen, you wanna talk regret?
If I had a dollar for every time I'd done something I regret,
I'd be a gajillionaire.
One thing I'll never regret is all the work I put into students like you.
I've been putting a lot of pressure on you lately,
so I'll take my share of the blame for this Kenny situation.
If I ever pushed you beyond your limits,
it's because I know you're capable of more than you think.
I'll always have your back. All right? So don't think about regret right now.
Just think about kicking ass out there.
Because I know you can.
Your team needs you more than you know.
About Kenny, I'm not gonna be the first to say anything.
I'll leave it up to you how you wanna come clean.
All right?
All right.
Thanks, Sensei.
You bet.
You know, maybe all this Miyagi-Do good energy bullshit isn't bullshit.
All right.
Go warm up with the others. I'll meet you there.
Sorry, I'm unavailable. Please leave a message.
Hey, LaRusso, look, uh...
It's me. It's Johnny. Listen, uh...
I know I said some things, like how you shouldn't come back or whatever,
but I didn't actually mean that.
You and I, we have our moments,
but the one thing we share is we're there for the kids...
and they need you right now.
I can't believe I'm saying this, but I guess I need you too, so...
just get your ass back here.
I'm going to check on our friend.
Come on!
Jesus Christ, he picked the lock.
Damn.
Next time, feed your dogs.
Where do you think you're going?
Come on. Let's go.
You know karate.
You're Cobra Kai?
You work for Kreese.
This isn't over.
Miguel.
Miguel, hey, can we talk, please?
Look, you obviously got some shit to get off your chest about me, so just say it.
Fine. Since no one else is gonna tell you.
You have the opportunity of a lifetime to be captain,
and you're blowing it.
You've lost every one of your matches. It's like you don't even care.
It hasn't exactly been the easiest for me.
It was never supposed to be easy, okay?
You knew being captain would've changed my life.
Well, it's not all about you, dude. It can change my life too.
Hold a grudge all you want, but I won it fair and square.
Sure. But you're also gonna be the reason we go home with nothing.
So either man up
or admit I'm fighting better than you and hand it over.
We have now entered the elimination phase of the Sekai Taikai.
The dojos who do not win tonight will be headed home.
The previous rounds have determined your current rankings.
The number one team will face the number 16 team.
The number two team will face the number 15 team,
and so on and so on.
Okay, that means at number 12, we're facing number five, Dublin Thunder.
Oh, great. I heard they started a fight with some locals at the beach.
They're always looking for a brawl.
Now, for the rules of the event.
Fighters will again face off on a platform.
This platform.
But this time,
two fighters from each dojo are allowed at one time.
If one of your fighters falls...
...they are out.
But another teammate can climb up to take their place.
However, the fight never stops.
So get up there quick
to not leave your teammate alone two-on-one.
When all the fighters of a dojo have been knocked off,
the team is out.
Advancing to the next round, the Iron Dragons!
Was this dude made in a lab?
He's like a mix between the Winter Soldier and Frankenstein's monster.
Don't call him a monster.
You don't know him or what he deals with.
We love you, Zara.
Next up, Korea's Cobra Kai versus Sweden's Polarslaget.
Wow. Impressive performance by Tory Nichols of Cobra Kai.
They advance to the next round.
Yes!
Tory! Tory! Tory! Tory! Tory! Tory!
Next on the platform, Dublin Thunder versus Miyagi-Do.
Hey.
I know I didn't act like it before, but I wish your dad was here too.
I'm sure he's okay.
I'll do my best to fill his shoes until he's back.
Yes, Sensei.
All right.
All right, let's bring it in.
I got something to say.
It's been a tough day.
Probably shouldn't have been such a dick to all of you, but I want you to know
that I believe with every bone in my body that you can do this.
You guys know a lot more about balance than me,
so remember everything Sensei LaRusso said
and use all your Miyagi-Do skills to stay up there.
Yeah, let's go.
I'm thinking we should start strong with our captains. Sam.
Robby.
Devon, you'll go next.
Hawk, Demetri.
And Miguel's our anchor.
Let's do this.
Come on, LaRusso. Let's go, Robby. You guys got this.
Ais!
It's okay, Robby.
You got this, champ. Go.
LaRusso!
Miyagi-Do!
Hell yeah! More of that.
Think you're so tough? Well, I'll show you tough, bitch.
Go.
All right. Go get 'em, kid.
Nice sacrifice.
Badass, Lee!
What the hell?
Oh shit!
Sorry, dude! Sorry, du--
Shit.
Hey.
Watch how it's done.
Fuck yeah! Come on!
Come on!
Ais!
Yeah!
Yes!
Incredible performance from Miyagi-Do's Miguel Diaz.
His triumph sends Miyagi-Do to the next round.
What the feck was that?! What the feck was that?!
What the hell?
Hey, Rosa.
You won't believe what just happened.
Wait. What? Slow down. Slow down.
Well, well, well.
You were missed at the events today.
Did you, uh, get yourself caught up in something?
Think you can fuck with me?
Take it easy, Danny boy.
It's only a tournament.
Dad?
Sam. Sam.
I'm so sorry I wasn't here today.
I was so worried. Where were you?
I, um...
I, uh, wish I had a good reason.
I went out for lunch. I got in a... a cab, and we... we, um...
It's a long story. Okay?
But how'd we do here?
It was... rough.
But... we made it through to the next round.
Good.
I... I promise I will
not let you down again.
Okay?
Hey, listen, Johnny. I got your voice--
- What's going on? - I got a call from Rosa.
Carmen's been rushed to the hospital. Something went wrong with the pregnancy.
What?
When? Uh, is she gonna be okay?
I don't know.
I talked to Miguel. We're leaving tonight. I haven't told the others.
I'll take care of it. Just focus on getting there.
Leave everything to me.
All right.
Thanks, man.
