- Mr. Kesuke Miyagi: Inside you same place you karate come from.
- Daniel Larusso: My karate comes from you.
- Mr. Kesuke Miyagi: Ah. Only root karate come from Miyagi. Just like bonsai choose own way grow because root strong, you choose own way do karate same reason.
- Daniel Larusso: I do it your way.
- Mr. Kesuke Miyagi: Hai. One day, you do own way.
- Mr. Kesuke Miyagi: [after three minutes of devastating wallops, taken from Barnes at the All-Valley Karate Tournament, Daniel is slumped on the mat clutching his side... when Miyagi rushes up] Daniel-san! DANIEL-SAN!
- Daniel Larusso: Mr. Miyagi, it's over! It's over! Forget about it!
- Mr. Kesuke Miyagi: No! NO!
- Daniel Larusso: I'm afraid! Let's just get out of here! I wanna go home!
- Mr. Kesuke Miyagi: No, cannot! Cannot! MUST not! Is okay lose to opponent! Must not lose to fear!
- Daniel Larusso: Yeah, well, I'm afraid! I'm afraid of him, all right? What do you want me to do?
- Mr. Kesuke Miyagi: HAI! You stay focused. Daniel-san, you best karate still inside you. Now time let out!
- Terry Silver: [in sauna, talking to Kreese on phone] What did I tell you, my man? The minute you step off that plane, you're the biggest dojo operator in the valley!
- John Kreese: [getting back massaged] What do you mean? What are you talking about?
- Terry Silver: I bought 20 locations today. Signed, sealed, 100%. You are back, my man; bigger and badder than ever!
- John Kreese: You're a sweetheart, that's great. But what about those two jerks?
- Terry Silver: Those two jerks are taking up 100% of my time from now on. So have patience, my friend, I'm just getting things rolling. When I'm finished with that kid, he'll be begging me to be his teacher! And you know what he's going to learn from me? Pain in every part of his body, and fear in every part of his mind!
- [laughs]
- Terry Silver: And here's the kicker: he's going to thank me for it!
- John Kreese: What about the old man?
- Terry Silver: Him I hurt through the kid. Johnny, by the time that little twerp steps into the ring to defend his title, I'm going to have him thinking he's invincible. And then he's gong to find out what pain and fear really mean.
- [evil smile]
- Terry Silver: Right in front of a thousand people!
- John Kreese: How do you know he'll compete?
- Terry Silver: He'll compete. Don't worry about it, you just have fun. Go give Mamona and her girlfriend a squeeze for me.
- John Kreese: [smiling] How do you know about Mamona?
- Terry Silver: I know!
- [laughs]
- Terry Silver: Anything else?
- John Kreese: [looks at his hands] Yeah. Make his knuckles bleed.
- Terry Silver: [shocked/amazed] Hey! Hey, I like that! Oh, I like that, Johnny! I'm going to use it!
- [laughs maniacally]
- Mr. Kesuke Miyagi: If karate used defend honor, defend life, karate mean something. If karate used defend plastic metal trophy, karate no mean nothing.
- Daniel Larusso: Why do I have to do this with this thing?
- Terry Silver: Because it's a part of the training. Because I'm teaching techniques that you don't have. Techniques you'll need to win the tournament. What, do you think you can rely on that crane crap?
- [does a phoney impression of it]
- Daniel Larusso: Well, I did pretty well with it last time.
- Terry Silver: Hey, wake up and smell the coffee, Mr. Larusso. Last time you weren't fighting this.
- [shows him a picture of Mike Barnes]
- Daniel Larusso: [tentatively] Mr. Miyagi?
- [holds up injured tree as a thunderclap sounds outside]
- Mr. Kesuke Miyagi: [seeing the tree, drops broom in sad shock, but calmly takes the tree and starts fixing it]
- Daniel Larusso: [worried, sad] Will it be okay?
- Mr. Kesuke Miyagi: Depend. If root strong, tree survive.
- Daniel Larusso: If Mr. Miyagi doesn't sell this tree we're looking for, he loses his business. He's broke. His Social Security can barely cover the expenses on his rowboat. This tree is like money in the bank.
- Jessica Andrews: Great. So now we're robbing a bank.
- Terry Silver: I owe you, man.
- John Kreese: You don't owe me anything.
- Terry Silver: Oh bullshit. I don't owe you anything? What about Vietnam, huh? How many times did you save my ass?
- John Kreese: I don't know. I lost count.
- Mr. Kesuke Miyagi: [Miyagi stares wistfully at a picture of him and Daniel together] Hope confusion end soon, Daniel-san. Miyagi heart empty without you.
- Terry Silver: [at the climax of Daniel's training] Visualize: this is not a bunch of sticks and pipes anymore; this is not some pathetic mugger who needs a couple of dollars so he can eat. No! This is a deadly, hungry wrecking machine who wants to detatch your head from the rest of your body and mount it over his fireplace!
- [Daniel gashes his fist on the 2X4 with Mike Barnes' picture]
- Terry Silver: It's blood. So what? Make believe it's HIS! This guy wants to BREAK you! HUMILIATE you! STOMP YOU INTO THE GROUND! NOW WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?
- Daniel Larusso: ...NAIL HIM!
- Terry Silver: SHOW ME! DO IT!
- [Daniel breaks all three 2X4s]
- Terry Silver: YES! You nailed him! You're ready!
- [after Mike Barnes beats Daniel up]
- Terry Silver: Do you wanna see some more?
- John Kreese: I wanna see a lot more.
- Terry Silver: [to Mike] Bring him back.
- Terry Silver: [to Kreese] You see his face? See the trail? I think he peed in his pants.
- Terry Silver: Look at this. Ten years ago, nuclear was the preferred waste. You could dump it anywhere! Now everybody's a detective. I'm lucky if I make one deal a YEAR without being indicted!
- Margaret: [to Terry Silver, who's taking a bubble bath and smoking a cigar] And if you do not pay your bills, I will sue you for everything you are worth.
- Terry Silver: [disinterested] Yeah. Yeah. Look, I'll have the check out by five.
- Margaret: And what about the court on the green?
- Terry Silver: Do what I usually do. Bribe them.
- Margaret: [astounded] Mr. Silver!
- Daniel Larusso: [practicing karate in garden when suddenly the gate busts open] Hey, get out of here, man! I signed it, all right?
- Mike Barnes: What'd you call the cops for?
- Daniel Larusso: What'd you steal the trees for?
- Mike Barnes: No proof.
- Daniel Larusso: Oh, who left the application? The tooth fairy? Huh?
- Mike Barnes: [the two fight until Barnes has Daniel on the ground and steps on his throat] There's nothing you've got that I can't counter. Your karate's a joke!
- Terry Silver: [entering the garden] Let him up, punk!
- Mike Barnes: Who are you? His mother?
- Terry Silver: Maybe.
- [the two fight]
- Terry Silver: Get up. GET UP!
- Terry Silver: [grabs the book he brought with him] See this? You see it?
- [hits Barnes with the book, then grabs him by the hair]
- Mike Barnes: [afraid he's going to fall, leans a hand on Silver for balance]
- Terry Silver: Get your hand off. Get your hand off me!
- Mike Barnes: [shaking, lets go]
- Terry Silver: I ever see you even on the same street as this kid, I won't be so charitable with your health. You understand?
- Mike Barnes: Yeah...
- Terry Silver: YOU UNDERSTAND?
- Mike Barnes: YES!
- Terry Silver: [lets him go] Good!
- [kicks his butt]
- Terry Silver: Now get the hell out of here!
- Mike Barnes: [zooms out of garden]
- Terry Silver: [helping Daniel up] Who was that guy?
- Daniel Larusso: That's the lunatic that wants my title. I was hoping you would have killed him.
- [chuckles]
- Terry Silver: No, no. That's not what karate's about. It's for defense.
- Daniel Larusso: Yeah, yeah, I know, you're right.
- [tries to hand Silver's book back to him]
- Daniel Larusso: Here, here's your book.
- Terry Silver: No, I brought that for you.
- Daniel Larusso: [remembering] Oh, yeah, right. Right, thanks!
- Terry Silver: Well, of course, there's only so much you can learn from a book.
- Daniel Larusso: Yeah, you're telling me.
- Terry Silver: Come on, stand up. Let me show you a couple of moves to help you deal with punks like that.
- Terry Silver: There you are. Where'd you go?
- Daniel Larusso: I, uh, I had to go think about some things, and um...
- Terry Silver: And?
- Daniel Larusso: And, uh... listen, I decided not to defend my title. Look. I... I really appreciate everything you've done for me. I mean, you've been great, I just... you know, when I hit that guy, that... that's just not me, you know? I just... I just wanted to come here and tell you in person, 'cause I figure after everything, I owe you at least that.
- Terry Silver: You owe me a lot more than that, Danny-boy.
- Daniel Larusso: Oh, I... I'm sorry, I thought the lessons were for free, but I...
- Terry Silver: [interrupting] No, no, no, nothing's for free. You ARE gonna defend. You're getting in that ring!
- Daniel Larusso: Excuse me, Mr. Silver, you can't make me do something I don't want to do.
- Terry Silver: [laughs] Danny, Danny, Danny. From the moment you met me, I've been making you do things you didn't want to do.
- Daniel Larusso: [confused] What are you talking about?
- Terry Silver: What am I talking about?
- Daniel Larusso: Yeah, what?
- Terry Silver: [calling towards office] Let's show him what I'm talking about!
- Mike Barnes: [steps out] I'm what he's talking about, shit head!
- Terry Silver: We have an agenda here, Daniel. It's really very simple.
- Daniel Larusso: You guys are nuts, man!
- Terry Silver: [continuing] Either you fight one fight on one day, or you fight every day for the rest of your life.
- [even more hyped up]
- Terry Silver: What's it going to be, Danny-boy?
- Daniel Larusso: What's it going to be? I'm not gonna be there, so just forget about it, all right?
- [attempts to leave the dojo, but is blocked by Kreese, who scares him by popping out from behind a cardboard cutout and forces Daniel back towards Silver and Barnes]
- Terry Silver: Let's show Mr. Kreese how he's going to get his business back!
- Daniel Larusso: Hey, I'm not gonna fight. You can't make me fight!
- Terry Silver: You don't have to. You can just stand there and let him kick your ass!
- [Daniel attempts to lunge at Barnes, but is blocked by him]
- Terry Silver: [mockingly] Use the crane, Danny-boy!
- Mike Barnes: [attacks Daniel] You're doing this to yourself, man.
- Referee: You know the rules. Light contact is allowed to the body, *and I do mean light, Mr. Barnes*.
- [the Cobras are pulling Daniel/Jessica but stop about 95% of the way up so they can get the application]
- Daniel Larusso: Hey! Pull us up!
- Snake: First give us the application.
- Daniel Larusso: No! I'll give it to you when we get up there.
- Mike Barnes: [lets Jessica fall for 1/2 second. She's fallen 5 feet]
- Daniel Larusso: All right! All right!
- [gives it to Snake]
- Daniel Larusso: Here.
- Mike Barnes: Check it out.
- Snake: [does] It's cool.
- Mike Barnes: [points at Daniel lecturing] Don't even think about backing out, man, because then I'll really be pissed. And this, well, this will all seem like a happy memory compared to what I do to you... and what we'll do to her.
- Daniel Larusso: I know you don't believe in fighting, but tournament karate isn't exactly fighting.
- Mr. Kesuke Miyagi: Not exactly ping-pong, either.
- Terry Silver: You think this is the end of it, old man? I'm gonna open Cobra Kai dojos all over this Valley. Hell, I might even teach for free! From now on, when people say "karate" around here, all they'll mean is Cobra Kai karate. John Kreese's karate. You won't even be a memory!
- Daniel Larusso: Yes, he will. You won't.
- [Kreese and Silver are laughing hysterically, as Daniel turns to Miyagi]
- Daniel Larusso: NOW... will you train me?
- Mr. Kesuke Miyagi: Hai. Now Miyagi train you.
- Mike Barnes: Sir, you said if I come down here and beat this LaRusso kid, I can have 25 percent ownership in your new dojos? Well, to perform my best, which I fully intend to do, I'm gonna need 50 percent.
- Terry Silver: Whoa... I'm afraid I can't give you any more than 35!
- Mike Barnes: I guess I'll be on my way, then... nice meeting everybody.
- [turns to leave]
- Terry Silver: Hey...
- [Mike turns around]
- Terry Silver: ... you fight as hard as you negotiate?
- Mike Barnes: Harder.
- Terry Silver: All right, you got it. 50 percent.
- Mike Barnes: And I can get that in writing?
- Terry Silver: By noon today.
- Mike Barnes: Mr. Silver, you just bought yourself a champion.
- Mike Barnes: Come on, get up! Get on that line! Get on that line, LaRusso! You're worthless! Your slope teacher's nothing! Get up, man! You're no champion! Get up! You suck, LaRusso! You suck, man! And your teacher's karate is shit! You hear me? It's shit!
- [Daniel looks over at Silver and Kreese]
- Mike Barnes: You're a joke, LaRusso! Your karate's a joke and your teacher isn't worth shit! He's nothing! He's nothing! And you're nothing! I own you! I own you, LaRusso! Where's your little Jap teacher now, huh? He's a phony, man! He's a fake!
- [Daniel looks over at Mr. Miyagi]
- Mike Barnes: And he didn't teach you nothing! Your karate's shit! You hear me? Get up!
- Mr. Kesuke Miyagi: [Terry's revenge plan is working and Miyagi is concerned about Daniel's change in personality] Daniel-san, why you doing this to yourself?
- Daniel Larusso: Doing what?
- Mr. Kesuke Miyagi: What you doing.
- Daniel Larusso: Because Mr. Miyagi extreme situations require extreme measures. Okay?
- Mr. Kesuke Miyagi: Oh, Daniel-san, that not sound like you talking.
- Daniel Larusso: Well, it is me talking, all right?
- [opens door to his room and confronts Miyagi face to face]
- Daniel Larusso: Look, I'm sorry if you don't like it but I've got problems, okay, and if you're not going to be part of the solution, just don't give me a hard time about it! All right? Okay, you got it?
- [both are very hurt and upset]
- Terry Silver: All right, all right, I've heard enough. I've made up my mind. This slope, what's his name - Miyagi - and that punk kid - I'm gonna get them for what they did to you. They made you suffer, so I'm gonna make them suffer... and suffer and suffer, and when I think they've suffered enough, then I start with the pain.
- [after Terry Silver met Mike Barnes]
- Terry Silver: So what do you think?
- Margaret: Oh, he's obnoxious.
- Terry Silver: [laughing] Yeah. He's perfect.
- [relaxes into bubble bath]
- Terry Silver: [to Mike Barnes before the match] Remember the game plan. First you win a point, then you lose a point. Keep the score at zero-zero. Pulverize him for the full three minutes. Then in sudden death you get the point, we win. I want him to experience pain. First he suffers.
- John Kreese: Then he suffers some more.
- [Cobras are leaving Daniel/Jessica stranded on ropes]
- Daniel Larusso: Hey!
- Snake: Yes, sweetheart?
- Daniel Larusso: Pull us up, man!
- Mike Barnes: The stakes just went up. Give us the tree.
- Jessica Andrews: No, Daniel, don't!
- Daniel Larusso: [does anyway] All right, but just be careful.
- Dennis: [laughing evilly] What are you going to do with it?
- Snake: Replant it.
- [raises it and acts like he's gonna thrust it in the canyon]
- Snake: Down there!
- Daniel Larusso: NO!
- Jessica Andrews: NO!
- Mike Barnes: [disgusted] Enough talk. Give me the tree!
- [takes it]
- Mike Barnes: Okay. Now you want it, right?
- Daniel Larusso: Yes!
- Jessica Andrews: Yes!
- Mike Barnes: And you don't want me to replant down there?
- Daniel Larusso: Yes.
- Jessica Andrews: Yes.
- Mike Barnes: Hey, Daniel.
- [breaks the trunk of the tree]
- Mike Barnes: Make a wish.
- [goes off laughing very hard with Dennis and Snake]
- Daniel Larusso: [looks at the injured tree, heartbroken]
- Terry Silver: [Mr. Silver is invited to say a few words before the final match of the All-Valley Tournament] Thank you, John. Thank you very much. I've always lived my life by the rule: "If you get, you give." For the last twenty years I've gotten from karate. I've gotten discipline, health, self-confidence, inner peace, everything that makes me what I am today. And today it's time for me to give back.
- [audience cheers approvingly]
- Terry Silver: It's my pleasure to announce my partnership with the greatest karate man I have ever known, Sensei John Kreese.
- [more cheers]
- Terry Silver: Together, we are about to open a chain of Cobra Kai dojos, where young people can come and learn the same values I've learned: honesty, compassion, and fair play. Thank you all for coming, enjoy the final match.
- [Mr. Silver leaves to thunderous applause]
- Snake: [entering shop] What's that smell?
- Mike Barnes: I don't know.
- [sniffs air]
- Mike Barnes: It smells like yellow streak.
- Daniel Larusso: Hey! Okay! This isn't funny anymore.
- Snake: [real cocky] Oh, I know.
- Mike Barnes: Sign the application yet?
- Daniel Larusso: No.
- Snake: [calls across the room] Hey Dennis! He didn't sign it yet.
- Dennis: [puts something down he was looking at and shakes his head back and forth making tsking sounds. Then he karate chops some shoji windows]
- [in Semi-Final fight, winning 2-0]
- Mike Barnes: [seeing Daniel] You're next, LaRusso! I own you.
- [finishes his opponent off]
- Terry Silver: [speaking to Mike Barnes] If you're looking to be a bad boy in L.A., Snake's the boy to be bad with. Right, Snake?
- Snake: You know it.
- Mike Barnes: [Jessica has just called him a slimeball for his improper advances] ... Oh, that's cute. Did your mother teach you that one?
- Terry Silver: [taunting Mr. Miyagi sarcastically] Come on little man! Let's see how good you really are!
