Good to see the spirit of Alan is alive and well
It's fair to say that Miyagi had a sense of humour (dunking Daniel in the lake, showing Daniel how to sweep, "J.C. Penney, $3.98", "Now use head for something other than target")
Child slave labour and stolen materials aside, Miyagi did have a pretty nice backyard.
Daniel's paint job on the fence looked adequate
Damn, I can't believe it. Even though he was Miyagi-Do, no one can deny his perseverance over the years. He was a pushy little bastard, but I liked that. Perhaps we could start a thread that tries to find the good in his heroes, Miyagi and Daniel.
You still telegraphing that wheel kick?
Because he was on the mat with Dynamite Mike Barnes, a man who strikes crippling fear into the hearts of his opponents. Barnes had already pulverized him several times by that point without even breaking a sweat, so when Danielle saw him fired up in the tournament fight, he knew it was hopeless. He knew there wasn't anything he had that Barnes couldn't counter. He knew that his illegal crane kicks and sucker punches would not work. He knew the crowd wasn't going to distract his opponent this time. The moment he saw Barnes giving him a death stare from across the ring, the bladder loosened. His only instinct was to curl up into the fetal position and cry uncontrollably into a puddle of his own urine.
He took the time to fix Daniel's bike though. Grooming was obviously more of a priority
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.
Barnes was clearly looking to the officials, bewildered as to why the rules weren't being enforced. When he went to check on Daniel to see if he was hallucinating, he got caught out by a trademark LaRusso suckerpunch.
And all this was after Daniel clearly verbally submitted. The corruption is plain to see.
Thankfully Mr Terry Silver will be returning to finally deliver justice.
