Imagine how emasculating this must have been to Whineielle.

Yet so desperate was he for female companionship that he let it slide.

Pathetic.

Yeah, this guy went on to be an auto sales magnate.

Please!

This stuck with me the most when I first watched KK3. Seeing Daniel so miserably out of shape that a light run made him inhale the water from the fountain like so much oxygen…. sad! Terry Silver couldn't believe that Daniel was ready to drop dead after what should have been a warm up… “you training for the olympics or something?” Lol priceless

Jessica was trying to break Daniel down psychologically throughout the film. From friend-zoning him to spilling the macaroni and cheese in a carefully staged tussle with Snake, it was all designed to make him experience fear and pain. Expect a season five cameo where she’s revealed as Cobra Kai.

I imagine Jessica's condescending "Why do you call him Mister?" line was an uncomfortable reminder for Daniel of the man-child that he is. She was also quick to get in on the humiliation of Daniel when Miyagi clowned on him with the broom sweeping. She really did play her role to perfection. That's no surprise though, she was recruited by Mr Terry Silver after all.
