Um... thanks a lot
The floors of the palace were reinforced with bricks
Fifteen layers deep
to prevent anyone from other.
Mr. Parker, is everything ok?
Um... yes
You're fast
But not fast enough
Whas up with the light bulbs, Mr. Han?
I thought you're just the maintenance man
You think only with the eyes
So you are easy to fool
It doesn't hurt
Jiao Fa, ancient chinese healing
How did you do that out there?
You like... You didn't even punch them
They were like... Beat each other up
When you're fighting angry blind man
Best to just stay out of the way
So where did you learn Kung Fu?
From father
Have you ever taught anybody?
No
Would you?
Depends
On what?
Reason
What about to kick somebody's ass?
Best fights are the ones we avoid
What if I wanna avoid getting my ass kicked?
Stop saying ass
Sorry
Kung Fu is for knowledge.
Defence, not to make war
But create peace
Thas definitely not what they're taught
No such things as bad students
Only bad teacher
Uh... Thas great
I guess we'll just stroll in their school
And talk to their teacher
- Good idea - No
Bad idea
If I go there, I'm gonna get my ass kicked
I will get beat up
You get beat up anyway
Will you go with me?
No, sorry
But you said it was a good idea
For you, bad idea for me
C'mon, is not like you're super busy or anything
I don't even speak chinese
Very sorry
Ok
Alright, whatever
Wait!
What are you doing?
Why did you stop?
Finish!
Ok Mr. Han, les get outta here
We do not stop when your enemy is down
No mercy
No mercy in studio
No mercy in competition
No mercy in life
Our enemies deserve pain
What are you looking at?
He's the one that attacked me
We are here to make peace
Let your little thing mind himself
One to one, no problem
Six to one, too much to ask of anyone
I see
Prepare for match
Wow... Mr. Han...
Does he want us to fight?
We are not here to fight
You attack my students
and disrespect my studio?
You want to leave? Not so easy!
Master Li
You both came here
One of you fight now
The boy will fight there
[Open Kung Fu Tournament]
We accept your challenge
Please instruct your students
to leave my boy alone to train
Atention!
From now on, this little thing is to be left alone
Until the tournament
Understood?
If he does not show up for the competition
I will bring pain to him and to you
So uh... that go pretty much how you planned it?
There's good news and bad news
Good news is they promise to leave you alone
While you prepare
Prepare for what?
Tournament
You will fight them all one on one
Huh?
So the bad news is
They get to beat me up in public?
Yes
Great, thanks
Thanks a lot
They're gonna kill me
You saw their Kung Fu
Thas not Kung Fu
That is not represent China.
So that bad man teach them very bad things
Hurt! A lot
More good news

See you later mom
Hey, wait, this is early for you on a Saturday
