  Welcome back, my MPP community friends, to the little place on
• 0:31
  the Internet that you all like to hang out with late at night.
• 0:35
  Right here. Look at that.
• 0:36
  If you're watching on YouTube, you will know what I'm doing.
• 0:39
  If you're still watching on Spotify, we might put videos up.
• 0:44
  Who knows? This is my third place podcast
• 0:46
  and we are not breaking down another episode of Cobra Kai on
• 0:51
  Netflix in the middle of the week no less.
• 0:54
  We are your amazing host. I'm evil.
• 0:57
  That's Brandy. Hi.
• 1:02
  And for those in the chat, yes, I am aware it's still the
• 1:05
  weekend, but just to get these episodes out sooner, we are
• 1:09
  recording on Sunday so I can post those episodes out on
• 1:11
  Wednesday. The schedule may vary, but we
• 1:15
  still will be doing our usual Friday night for the live
• 1:17
  version of this. These episodes, we're we're
• 1:23
  dishing them out two times a week.
• 1:27
  We'll probably use this time as an alternative to maybe we
• 1:30
  forgot to mention something on the live episodes, who knows.
• 1:35
  Well, and we've got the new season of Cobra Kai coming out
• 1:39
  here next week, in fact. Yeah, we kind of want to watch
• 1:44
  those. We kind of want to rush this out
• 1:48
  right away. Yeah, but then I'm going to be
• 1:51
  sad rushing it through, and then I'm going to be sad.
• 1:54
  Oh, OK. I'm sorry.
• 1:56
  How are you, Brandon, since the last time we spoke?
• 2:01
  I'm great. How are you?
• 2:02
  I'm. Great.
• 2:03
  I'm great, I'm great. Well, well, this is a short, a
• 2:09
  very short episode because it's the middle of the week.
• 2:12
  We were. I guess we're not gonna ask each
• 2:14
  other how our week was cuz it still, it still hasn't yet.
• 2:22
  It's it's still going, it's still, it's still coming on.
• 2:26
  But you just say you have an affirmation.
• 2:28
  For us, I do I have an affirmation.
• 2:30
  Affirmation. Affirmations are great, and even
• 2:33
  in the middle of the week, let's go.
• 2:37
  So the daily affirmation or weekly affirmation is I finish
• 2:41
  what matters and let go of what does not.
• 2:47
  Short, simple. I finish what matters and let go
• 2:50
  of what. Does not matter or what does
• 2:53
  not. Not matter.
• 2:56
  You know what? I think that has meaning with
• 2:59
  lots of different things to be honest.
• 3:01
  Yes, that you should totally do every morning.
• 3:05
  Start a video with an affirmation.
• 3:11
  You want me to do a daily affirmation video?
• 3:13
  No. Not really.
• 3:14
  Weekly maybe? I mean, I could you.
• 3:18
  Could. Are you gonna, are you doing it
• 3:21
  on your M3P or are we just talking about personally?
• 3:26
  We'll see. We'll have to discuss that.
• 3:30
  That's an idea. That's an idea.
• 3:31
  That's an idea we're putting out, ideas we're brainstorming.
• 3:35
  I've been sending daily affirmations to one of our
• 3:37
  friends, Lauren, and she's she says I'm hitting them right on
• 3:40
  the nose for her and they've really been helping her.
• 3:42
  So that makes me feel. Oh God, I'm glad.
• 3:45
  I love that. Cheers.
• 3:49
  Yeah, I really like. I needed them before too as
• 3:55
  well. You.
• 3:56
  You've sent them to me. Like there, there like, yeah.
• 4:02
  I try. I remember correctly.
• 4:05
  I think it's the, she said. I don't know how you know, And I
• 4:09
  said it might be my empath. I'm an empath.
• 4:13
  So that's probably probably why I'm assuming, yeah.
• 4:21
  Right. Yeah.
• 4:23
  It could be, it could be part of it.
• 4:25
  Like I have that intuition and yeah.
• 4:28
  So very intuitive of you. Being an empath can have as
• 4:36
  blessings and also be not so great sometimes too though.
• 4:41
  Blessing and a curse, huh? Yeah, but that's it.
• 4:44
  Blessing and a curse at the same time.
• 4:45
  Yep, you got it. Yeah, we should talk more about
• 4:48
  that. Hey, Chris.
• 4:50
  That would definitely be something I wouldn't.
• 4:51
  I would like to talk. About we should do what happened
• 4:54
  about that. You should add that to the list.
• 4:57
  I don't have to do a list of things.
• 4:58
  We should talk about empath and empath and depression.
• 5:07
  I do. I do Taco.
• 5:08
  Yes, I do. I did.
• 5:12
  We were doing the whole. Ghost Stories.
• 5:16
  Ghost Stories on Halloween last month, and I put out one Hey
• 5:21
  Menace, welcome in Menace. Menace is in the building.
• 5:26
  Hi Menace. Like oh, I said one on the live.
• 5:34
  Like I also heard that if you don't pay attention to them,
• 5:36
  like you know, all that stuff, you kind of remind me of a
• 5:44
  leprechaun. Don't start, don't start, don't
• 5:46

• 9:19
  Also, and must be said, in every episode, every episode, we are
• 9:23
  always critiquing the show. We love Cobra Kai and we love
• 9:25

• 9:54
  Go right ahead. All right, Season 4, episode 2,
• 10:01
  first learn stand. The episode title is taken from
• 10:06
  line by Mr. Miyagi and The Karate Kid when he explains the
• 10:08
  first learning process of the crane kick.
• 10:11
  First learn stand Danielson what balance and that's what this
• 10:18
  whole episode's about balance stepnosis.
• 10:23
  Johnny picks up defensive strategies while Danny learns
• 10:26
  how to get on the offensive. Amanda confronts Tory new kid
• 10:30
  Kenny is bullied at school. Before we start, what you think
• 10:34
  of this Kenny already? I forgot how little he was, to
• 10:40
  be honest. I was like, wait, what?
• 10:42
  And then. And then I was like, Oh my God,
• 10:44
  Anthony, what's wrong with you? That.
• 10:47
  Yeah. For how little he was too, yeah.
• 10:50
  Right. I feel like he's really change.
• 10:53
  He changes from from season to season, like big time.
• 10:57
  Like it's not a little change, it's a big change.
• 11:00
  And he got that growth spurt, that lab Russo growth spurt.
• 11:03
  He's all lots of like spurt. He's a he's a he's a mob baby
• 11:08
  with chubby but and then he grew up like damn dude in the show
• 11:15
  still in 2019. He's all over here living in
• 11:17
  2025 now. Written by the team of Joe
• 11:23
  Pierrilli and Juan Thomas. Directed by the team of John
• 11:26
  Herwitz and Hayden Schlotzberg had John and Hayden the student
• 11:32
  Kenny Payne plays dungeon Lord legacies on his computer.
• 11:36
  His alarm vibrates, telling him that he's going to be late for
• 11:38
  school. He quickly gets ready for school
• 11:40
  then runs downstairs. He then finds a plate of a lot
• 11:42
  of squares of M&M, Rice Krispie treats and a lovely note from
• 11:45
  his mom wishing him a good day. While waiting for the bus.
• 11:49
  He dances happily to his music and doesn't notice the school
• 11:52
  bus pulling up behind him until it honks.
• 11:56
  The students are laughing from behind him as he goes into the
• 11:58
  bus of people's kids mock him. Anthony La Rosa describes it as
• 12:01
  trying not to shit in my pants dance.
• 12:04
  His friends commend him for the insult and Kenny sits on the bus
• 12:08
  sad he's embarrassed. Don't tell me you didn't have
• 12:12
  fucking. You're like who is TikTok I
• 12:16
  feel. Bad for playing?
• 12:17
  What are you talking about? I do too but who is TikTok
• 12:20
  directly like directed for? Who is TikTok aimed at?
• 12:27
  Kids right like before. Before we all got it.
• 12:31
  Yeah, before we took over, yeah. Before we took up, yeah, parents
• 12:36
  took over, but who was direct TikTok, direct mainly at people,
• 12:40
  the kids, what are they called musically?
• 12:44
  Musicality, something like that, Musically.
• 12:46
  And didn't they do like little videos out there dancing around
• 12:52
  before 2020? Yeah, Why couldn't why?
• 12:57
  Why they couldn't they do like put it in here like, like where
• 13:03
  is this town that in California where you can't dance around all
• 13:07
  crazy? It's not like you don't have
• 13:09
  YouTube like. I personally loved Kenny's vibes
• 13:14
  and I don't know why they were laughing at him.
• 13:15
  I thought he, I thought it was a good dance for one.
• 13:19
  It was a good dance also. Having fun like.
• 13:22
  I, I don't know, Joe and Lou and Todd, I think they wrote it
• 13:26
  because let's make fun of him for dancing.
• 13:29
  People don't do that anymore, bud.
• 13:31
  People don't make fun of other people for dancing.
• 13:33
  If they want to, like, they'll probably join in, but in 2019 no
• 13:39
  less, because those shows still out in 2019.
• 13:43
  They're still like doing all kinds of other stupid stuff as
• 13:46
  well. Jackass, the YouTube pranks, all
• 13:51
  that other stuff, but to say that a there's a fuss coming and
• 13:56
  all the students, all the students decide to laugh, not
• 14:00
  like, hey, let's have a few students here laugh and then
• 14:04
  some of these other students like good job, man.
• 14:07
  You know I'm going to join. It way over dramatic.
• 14:10
  Yeah, this is way over dramatic. And I think that they just,
• 14:16
  they, they had to come up with something to start the yeah, I
• 14:20
  don't want to say the word on here, but yeah, the whatever.
• 14:25
  Yeah, we don't want to say. Yeah, we don't say that.
• 14:29
  It's not. A Cobra Kai logo appears on the
• 14:32
  screen after that. I was like, oh, shit.
• 14:34
  This is how we're going to start this episode.
• 14:37
  Next scene, Daniel brings handheld Sanders to the deck,
• 14:40
  only to find Johnny standing down the deck with a machine.
• 14:43
  So you wanted to knock it out early?
• 14:45
  I've. It's like I can just hear Daniel
• 14:47
  asking him the night before, like, hey, we're gonna send the
• 14:50
  deck tomorrow. All right?
• 14:51
  Get ready, be ready, Be ready. OK.
• 14:54
  All right, Daniel, leave. Johnny's all like, let me go to
• 14:58
  the hardware store and get a Sander.
• 15:01
  Like bring it in. Johnny.
• 15:03
  I feel like Johnny works smarter, not harder.
• 15:07
  And yeah, he does. He's all like, yeah, let me go,
• 15:12
  let me go look for a Sander. And he, he did.
• 15:15
  He brought the standard with him and saw like and Daniel's all
• 15:18
  like. No dude.
• 15:20
  He's like ruining it. You're ruining.
• 15:22
  I wanted to sand the deck and he's a high.
• 15:24
  Like why do we make kids do chores?
• 15:27
  Like what? That's the whole point of it.
• 15:31
  Like, you know, paint the fence, hammer the nail and hammer wax
• 15:37
  the cars wax. On, wax off.
• 15:39
  Let's not forget that. Yeah, Daniel wanted to use the
• 15:44
  deck of the teacher, but moment now his whole week is tank.
• 15:47
  Like the whole week they take Jazz on one another's teaching
• 15:52
  method. Daniel doesn't want to fight as
• 15:54
  their students want them to work through their differences.
• 15:57
  They want each other to respect their styles of karate, which is
• 15:59
  hard for Daniel since he was taught karate was for defense
• 16:02
  only and states that he's finding it hard to respect Kobe
• 16:05
  Kai Johnny. Johnny rebuttals that is Eagle
• 16:09
  Fang not called the guy. Daniel doesn't see the
• 16:12
  difference as it's still teaching aggression.
• 16:14
  Johnny knows that some kids need aggression.
• 16:16
  Daniel decides they should teach each other to stop Brody Johnny
• 16:20
  off with a spit shake. I love how he's like no thank
• 16:27
  you. Keep in mind the same spit shake
• 16:32
  that he probably did to a landlord in Cobra Kai, the
• 16:35
  corporate guy, the whole thing, Armand like, like what?
• 16:40
  Yeah, we spit, shake and he probably did the whole like you.
• 16:44
  Did you do, have you ever done that?
• 16:47
  I, I gotta know, is that 'cause I, I know it's not a girl thing,
• 16:51
  it's a guy thing. Yeah, it is a boy or.
• 16:55
  A boy thing. It's like, it's like back in the
• 16:57
  day. It's oh, so here, here, Here's
• 17:02
  the thing. It was either spit to shake and
• 17:05
  all that stuff. There was also like if you, if
• 17:09
  you and another person were about to get into a fight,
• 17:12
  another person would just like instigate the whole thing and be
• 17:14
  like put the hand between each other.
• 17:18
  It's like spit on my hand, spit on my hand.
• 17:20
  And like, as soon as you spit, he'd move it like, oh shit, here
• 17:24
  we go. Throw money at each other
• 17:28
  because you know, like here so. What is the purpose of a spit
• 17:33
  shake? It's like, I don't know,
• 17:38
  Johnny's all like. Well, you said he used to do.
• 17:42
  Yeah, because I saw it. I saw it in TV shows and movies
• 17:46
  back today. So I thought it was like, hey,
• 17:50
  this is saying like, let's check on it.
• 17:51
  It's like, alright, let me like why would you spit on your
• 17:55
  hands? Like, I don't know that's.
• 17:56
  What I'm saying I yeah. We're blood now.
• 17:59
  Let's go like spit on it too. Like, all right, So both of our
• 18:04
  spits are right there. Like, oh God.
• 18:07
  Tell us that something you would do now, not in this.
• 18:11
  Era. Both are Spits combined.
• 18:17
  Who do we have? Captain Kobid, heed our hero.
• 18:25
  Wow. Wow.
• 18:30
  Next scene, Tori is at work waiting tables for little tips.
• 18:33
  She ready to take a woman's order.
• 18:35
  However, the customer revealed herself as Mendo La Russo.
• 18:38
  How do you not know the fucking girl you're bullying, Mom?
• 18:43
  No, fucking he. Does now.
• 18:45
  The dad needing Tori to stay away from Sam.
• 18:48
  Tori nervously realized that the man that came to her job.
• 18:51
  You can't do my job bitch. You can't do my home.
• 18:54
  Like what the hell exactly. Like I can't call your mom,
• 19:00
  You're like, I can't, my mom's sick.
• 19:02
  Like doesn't matter. If I halfway way lucky, I feel
• 19:07
  like Amanda is so right in this situation.
• 19:11
  Yeah, she was. It's like, where else are you?
• 19:14
  Were you supposed to check this girl out?
• 19:17
  Like hey, stop fucking messing with my daughter, I can't find
• 19:22
  you at home, I can't find you at school.
• 19:24
  I'm not stepping foot and go over Kai your job.
• 19:29
  Hey if you get in trouble, not my bad, but still stay away from
• 19:33
  the daughter. She said she tried calling her
• 19:36
  parents but didn't get a call back.
• 19:37
  But I wonder if she should have kicked in in the front door as a
• 19:39
  Turk style. She should have.
• 19:41
  She should have kicked her in the front door.
• 19:42
  It would've been great, Amanda angrily tells her that has
• 19:48
  little daily reminders of a mess story made in her house.
• 19:51
  And not just because, you know, poor Bert is all roofed up.
• 19:56
  But, you know, it's the house. The house can be replaced.
• 19:59
  Yeah, sure, why not? Bert can always be like, go to
• 20:02
  the hospital I guess. Well, Bert was just fine, so
• 20:06
  yeah. Bert was just fine.
• 20:09
  The only reason Tory isn't in jail is because Sam didn't want
• 20:11
  your deal dragged out. See right there.
• 20:15
  Yeah, I know, I know. Say like you'd think Tori would
• 20:20
  be like, Oh well OK, she's not so bad after all.
• 20:25
  Like Sam is saying, you know, Sam basically could have pressed
• 20:30
  charges and got her in big trouble and she is telling her
• 20:33
  not her mom not to. Right.
• 20:35
  Like, yeah. Yeah.
• 20:39
  But no, Tori can't take the High Road as usual.
• 20:44
  Not only that, but she didn't she didn't call the cops or
• 20:52
  anything. She doesn't want to be like a
• 20:53
  big deal, unlike Tori who made it a big deal at school and now
• 20:59
  like even other people are calling her a fucking name Sam.
• 21:06
  Like I heard she's trying to get it with that other guy, so you
• 21:13
  know, Tori could have stopped that.
• 21:14
  No, it's not true, they were drunk.
• 21:18
  And there's another problem too. She trends to have Tori put in
• 21:24
  jail if she touches even a hair on San's head before the
• 21:26
  tournament. Tori sings.
• 21:28
  Amanda should go ignoring the customer who wants a soup.
• 21:31
  Amanda's just there to deliver a message beneath.
• 21:33
  No, Tori got the message. She didn't.
• 21:35
  As pointed out by Tori. Then it would be a mistake and
• 21:39
  like Amanda threatening her, not a good luck.
• 21:44
  Did you say not a good luck that Amanda was threatening her?
• 21:47
  Yeah, she should have just went to the priest about it, like,
• 21:49
  hey, I'm gonna beat this kid up. Well, she does.
• 21:54
  She also does that too when she gets what's the word?
• 21:57
  When she gets yeah. And she runs into him.
• 22:02
  Probably, you know, like not a good luck because there's also
• 22:04
  other people around and it's something happened to Tori.
• 22:07
  Amanda is their first suspect. I feel like you're digging our
• 22:11
  theories now here. I am.
• 22:15
  Haven't had those for a while. I know right?
• 22:20
  Not ever. Ever since what?
• 22:22
  Anthony 2. What?
• 22:24
  Even see the two Anthony being Louise.
• 22:29
  Yeah. Not Daniel.
• 22:31
  Yeah. The manager intervenes.
• 22:34
  The customer asked about their soup again.
• 22:35
  She tells the customer to shut up and the manager fires her on
• 22:38
  the spot. Tori angrily throws her apron,
• 22:40
  angrily sinks Amanda, and then Lolly claims how the restaurant
• 22:43
  got a beat in the health inspection and the cook dipped
• 22:46
  his balls in the soup. Offended, the customer asked the
• 22:49
  manager, cancel the soup. Why?
• 22:50
  I leave, First of all, I leave. Fuck the soup.
• 22:54
  Forget the soup, I leave. Why would you say yeah?
• 22:58
  Can you handle the soup? Get up and leave.
• 23:01
  Everybody get up and leave. And B is not even that bad.
• 23:05
  B is just like we found a Roach. Can you, like, fix this?
• 23:11
  Yeah, sure. OK, cool.
• 23:12
  It's like a mouse problem, then. Yeah, that's math.
• 23:15
  I'd get the hell out of there. At West Valley Middle School,
• 23:23
  the students are playing basketball for gym class.
• 23:25
  Anthony watching Leah. You know they're not going to be
• 23:29
  long. Maybe I'll mentioned them in the
• 23:32
  next episode they're playing by, but it's like, I couldn't like,
• 23:35
  there it is. We didn't have enough time.
• 23:38
  All the new characters, like for three episodes, they're they're
• 23:41
  around here for three episodes only.
• 23:43
  So Leah and some of Anthony's friends are here for three
• 23:46
  episodes. I'll mention their real names on
• 23:49
  the next episode and who they're played by, where they're from.
• 23:53
  Anthony watches Leah swooning over her from a distance.
• 23:56
  The coach Coach Kenny in a with Larusso and Thompson.
• 23:59
  Anthony offers to cover the ballerina.
• 24:02
  Really he's dancing and you're calling him a ballerina.
• 24:06
  However, his plan backfires of Kenya is really be skilled in
• 24:08
  basketball, which annoys Anthony.
• 24:10
  Kenny goes to check the ball before having scores, only to
• 24:12
  hit him in the face with the ball.
• 24:15
  Did you think that that was on purpose even though he said it
• 24:17
  was an act? Like at first I almost thought
• 24:19
  it was on purpose. Kenny.
• 24:22
  Maybe Kenny is a clutch. Who knows?
• 24:24
  Like I doubt it. I if he played basketball
• 24:26
  before, like him just trying. Thompson urges Anthony to use
• 24:35
  karate on Kenny, but Anthony reminds him how the move could
• 24:38
  cause brain damage. Not from a kid.
• 24:45
  Not from a kid. An adult, Yeah, from a kid.
• 24:50
  And Thompson scoffs, calling him Lapuso, then walks off.
• 24:55
  Kenny attempts to apologize, but Anthony doesn't believe the
• 24:57
  check was an accident. Leah, another classmate, tells
• 25:00
  Anthony to give the new kid a break.
• 25:01
  She tells Kenny to ignore them. Compliments a shirt that made
• 25:04
  Anthony watch his tire exchange. Like, damn, Anthony's a lot of
• 25:16
  pressure there. But Anthony, yeah, Anthony, I
• 25:21
  just feels like not Daniel's kid.
• 25:23
  Like he's such, yeah. He's just, I don't get it.
• 25:28
  I don't get the how how he can treat how he treats other people
• 25:32
  like that, like he's complete opposite of his sister.
• 25:37
  Like I feel I don't know. Because he hasn't had that
• 25:41
  training yet of his dad. He doesn't want he.
• 25:46
  Well, he he was. He is.
• 25:48
  He was not wanting it. He was stubborn.
• 25:52
  His dad tried. And like, even his sister was
• 25:57
  hanging out with, what are their names, Moon and the other one,
• 26:04
  they were freaking Mean Girls too.
• 26:07
  But now they're like, OK, we changed, but this feels like
• 26:13
  elementary school, like middle school, right?
• 26:16
  Yeah, well, it is. Yeah.
• 26:19
  It's middle school, Yeah. It actually feels like
• 26:23
  elementary school. Yeah, I suppose it.
• 26:26
  Yeah, it is. Elementary.
• 26:28
  Middle school, Yeah. That big growth spurt in the
• 26:31
  next few seasons, and then they show up in high school.
• 26:34
  Yeah, like a whole It's TV show school.
• 26:39
  Yeah. Like where one season you're in
• 26:43
  elementary school in fifth grade, the next season you're
• 26:46
  suddenly in high school. Saved by the bell.
• 26:49
  What means world? Yeah.
• 26:52
  Yeah, so, so this feels the same way.
• 26:55
  They shouldn't have done that, but they did.
• 26:58
  I think. I feel like he's on there a lot
• 27:00
  of pressure from being LA Russo's kid and then having all
• 27:05
  like all these kids coming up to him, like, hey, you're, you
• 27:08
  know, your dad knows karate, so we assume you know karate.
• 27:11
  So we're going to be friends with you so you can.
• 27:13
  So we're going to bully other people and then you can help us,
• 27:16
  you know, do all this stuff. You think that he's getting used
• 27:18
  by his friends, basically. Yeah, basically, but.
• 27:21
  They're not your friends. No, next thing Johnny paint the
• 27:27
  dojo's walls at Daniel's behest. He points out that this isn't
• 27:30
  the right way to paint walls, though Daniel doesn't want him
• 27:33
  to miss the lesson. Daniel drinks beer while Johnny
• 27:36
  painting his fatiques. He takes a beer calling defense
• 27:39
  boring and scoff at the 3D beer. Why, Why?
• 27:43
  Why would Daniel? Why would Daniel do that?
• 27:47
  Why would he sit down with a beer?
• 27:50
  Why? Like, I feel like he was like.
• 27:52
  And. And what is it?
• 27:55
  Antagonizing? Yeah.
• 27:57
  Like, why would you do that? I mean, OK, sit down.
• 27:59
  But you're really going to grab a beer knowing that, you know,
• 28:03
  Johnny would like to do that. I'm sure not.
• 28:05
  Sit there and paint your house. Yeah.
• 28:12
  Exactly. I thought he was being a brat,
• 28:14
  but Daniel was just like, what the hell are you doing?
• 28:17
  And blue moon is pretty. Blue and.
• 28:21
  Then. Well, yeah, and then you got
• 28:23
  Blue Moon. Wait, what?
• 28:25
  Is it because they can't say another word for fruity?
• 28:29
  Or is it because there's actual fruit in the blue moon?
• 28:32
  Blue Moon is fruity, yeah. OK.
• 28:36
  Yeah, I've had it. All right.
• 28:38
  OK, so you put an orange in it? I thought that Johnny was just
• 28:42
  being an asshole again. OK, no, no, it's it's pretty.
• 28:47
  He was not. Angry Daniel Karate chopped a
• 28:49
  bottle in half, impressed. Johnny wants to learn how to do
• 28:52
  that like he'd never seen anybody do that.
• 28:54
  Come on. Well, Miyagi don't may seem
• 28:59
  boring and save Johnny from Priest a few weeks ago, which
• 29:03
  wasn't the first time. Johnny then remembered Mr.
• 29:06
  Miyagi's confrontation with Priest and how he embarrassed
• 29:09
  him. The karate hit two at the
• 29:11
  beginning. Daniel tells Johnny that nobody
• 29:13
  was more badass than Mr. Miyagi. Johnny quietly returned to the
• 29:17
  painting. There's that word again.
• 29:19
  Badass. Here we go and this is the
• 29:26
  reason why we have badass moments on the episode because
• 29:30
  they like the word. We use the word badass badass.
• 29:39
  Next thing Robbie teaches Miyagi to the Cobra Kai is
• 29:41
  acknowledging how difficult to learn the precise block stop of
• 29:47
  Pacific attack. Robbie demonstrate with Tori who
• 29:50
  blocks his punches. Crease adds that their whole
• 29:52
  style is reactive, so they have to counter move and they can use
• 29:56
  Cobra Kai to set trap. Robbie demonstrated by having
• 30:00
  Tori paint the fence, then use her lower guard to step her
• 30:04
  sweep her to the mat. He apologized as part of the
• 30:07
  lesson, but she angrily flipped him over.
• 30:08
  Mounts and prepared to deal with the fishing blow or increase
• 30:12
  stops her. Upset, he calls her into his
• 30:15
  office and tells Robbie to continue the lesson.
• 30:20
  So if we're going by past moves like this, Tori can sweep Miguel
• 30:33
  Mountain and knock him out. Tori can also sweep Robbie,
• 30:40
  Robbie Mountain, Sam can sweep Miguel Mountain, knock him out.
• 30:51
  Can Sam be the same to Robbie? Has she done that?
• 30:57
  I don't think she has. Recall so the girls on Cobra Kai
• 31:05
  are badasses and the guys so Tori and Sam are more badass
• 31:17
  than Robbie and Miguel is what it seems here.
• 31:24
  I mean I I have no objection with that.
• 31:26
  Oh. My God I love Cobra Kai.
• 31:29
  Yay. Katherine loves Cobra Kai.
• 31:32
  Girls are definitely badass. Sometimes there are more badass
• 31:36
  than guys. I'm not going to disagree with
• 31:38
  that. There you go.
• 31:45
  OK, time out. Let's tell her what's going on.
• 31:47
  But we are discussing Season 4 Episode 2.
• 31:53
  Season 4 Episode 2 we're on. Yeah, I'm waiting for the
• 31:56
  second-half of the final season. I know.
• 31:58
  Are we? I'm so excited next week.
• 32:01
  Yeah, we're waiting for the third half, third half, the
• 32:04
  third, the third, the third part.
• 32:07
  Second second part. I'm waiting for the third.
• 32:10
  Well, we haven't even seen the second part.
• 32:12
  I know, but it's. Slow it down, I don't want it to
• 32:18
  be over. All right, Kris and Tori
• 32:23
  discussed what's going on with her, and she eventually lowers
• 32:25
  her guard enough to admit she lost her job and is having
• 32:27
  trouble finding another. While on probation.
• 32:30
  He asked if she feels sorry for herself.
• 32:32
  Kris explained that when something has happened, you have
• 32:34
  two choices that are tear you down or build you up.
• 32:38
  OK, Wait, wait, wait. Yeah, I gotta stop you right
• 32:41
  there because I, you know I cannot stand Kris, right?
• 32:44
  I cannot stand him. But I love, no, I would go off
• 32:49
  every time about Case, but I absolutely love.
• 32:53
  I wrote that down. I love that.
• 32:56
  I love that statement he made. That is probably the only thing
• 33:00
  in this whole show that I'll ever say that I like about him
• 33:04
  is that one statement. It's true.
• 33:08
  Oh my God, I agree with him. I don't know why I can't stand
• 33:12
  him, but I do agree with that. Yeah, OK.
• 33:16
  I'm done. He asks if she feels sorry for
• 33:18
  herself. Chris explains that when
• 33:19
  something bad happens, you have two choices, let it tear you
• 33:21
  down or build you up. He looks at a photo of him,
• 33:24
  Silver, and the man from Vietnam.
• 33:26
  He wisely revealed that a step backwards can open the path
• 33:30
  after he asked what really happened.
• 33:34
  Who's the other man? The one that they.
• 33:41
  Say that one more time. Who's the other guy in the
• 33:43
  picture? Miss Silver.
• 33:46
  Isn't that the one that passed? Yeah, Is it I?
• 33:51
  Think so. I know twig is silver.
• 33:55
  I'm pretty sure there's yeah, there's three and there's.
• 33:59
  Yeah, the redhead is the other guy, right?
• 34:01
  Yeah. The guy in the army.
• 34:03
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 34:04
  OK. Yeah, you you're right, Crease.
• 34:12
  I don't know why he's always such an asshole to towards the
• 34:15
  men. OK I do know why.
• 34:17
  Never mind from season past season he's always has a soft
• 34:20
  spot for the women because his mom.
• 34:23
  I'm alive. And his girlfriend, I mean, and
• 34:28
  his girlfriend, well, he saved from when she was no, I met like
• 34:33
  when he first like helped her, saved her 'cause.
• 34:37
  Yeah, and I think in the next season you'll see pretty soon
• 34:41
  that he's has another soft spot, another for smaller girls.
• 34:45
  Like he's such a kind hearted guy towards the women, but when?
• 34:50
  My God, I did not call him kind hearted.
• 34:53
  Stop. It why no?
• 34:57
  Has such a good heart towards the women but when it comes to
• 35:01
  the guy, he is like such an asshole towards them.
• 35:04
  No no, no, just an asshole all around.
• 35:07
  Do not do not say he's kind heart.
• 35:10
  Crease is not kind hearted in any way.
• 35:12
  He uses his his Palpatine stuff style of the Sith ways to mess
• 35:23
  with the men. Johnny when he was younger, Hawk
• 35:33
  even now, even Robbie now, and he's not talking to Robbie like
• 35:37
  this, like, hey, don't let it tear you down and all this shit.
• 35:41
  He's like trying to get Robbie to fight his dad, too.
• 35:46
  As to Tori, he's all like, I got you, I got you.
• 35:51
  It's OK. Come on.
• 35:52
  Like, we need help. I got you.
• 35:54
  Don't worry. He's probably going to give her
• 35:56
  a job there. Yeah, with the probation, he's
• 36:00
  probably going to be like, let me see this thing and I'll tell
• 36:03
  him that you're working here and blah, blah, blah.
• 36:06
  As to Robbie, hey, you have a place to stay here if you want.
• 36:10
  Like, can we go back to freaking Creed's childhood because he's
• 36:15
  like trying to help these kids too, but he just, everybody
• 36:20
  thinks he's such an asshole talking about things, but he's
• 36:23
  still thinking about he's. Got a really warped way of
• 36:26
  trying to help. Yeah, the war on ours.
• 36:32
  I still think he was very selfish and it's all about him
• 36:35
  so. Yeah, pretty.
• 36:36
  Much He's trying to build his army.
• 36:39
  Yeah, pretty next scene, Kenny comes home and answered a call
• 36:44
  from his father who was in the military.
• 36:46
  He asked if Kenny made any friends as it would be hard
• 36:49
  switching into the middle school.
• 36:50
  Middle of the school year. They were trying to say that
• 36:53
  middle of the school year, middle school.
• 36:56
  But if Kenny does things right then he'll see the results.
• 36:58
  He didn't ask how many, how mom is doing.
• 37:01
  Kenny admits she's working a lot.
• 37:02
  His father understands that she's had a tough time since
• 37:05
  what happened to his brother. He presents that Kenny's the man
• 37:10
  of the house now. He shouldn't have to be, but he
• 37:13
  is. He asked him to rise to that.
• 37:15
  Kenny promises evil and they exchange goodbyes.
• 37:18
  Love you and hang up. And then I'm like oh shit his
• 37:22
  brother die. What?
• 37:26
  I'm like, wait a minute, wait a minute.
• 37:27
  No, yeah, I know. I I I was like.
• 37:29
  No. No, yeah, I I couldn't.
• 37:33
  I forgot. I was forgetting things.
• 37:35
  Yeah. So when Kenny is talking to his
• 37:38
  father, his father has a major Insignia on his uniform, thus
• 37:41
  making him major pain. Major pain.
• 37:48
  Such a major pain in the ass. Later on, like Kenny logs into
• 37:55
  his game to find a new request from Princess Zia.
• 37:58
  He remembers the same girl from gym class Star Wars rockets.
• 38:02
  He remembers the same girl from gym class inviting him to play
• 38:05
  with her. He aptly accept and begins the
• 38:07
  game. Yay.
• 38:12
  We all hate that, right Daniel? Give Johnny a history lesson,
• 38:19
  inspirational proverbs and saying as he learns.
• 38:22
  Wax on, wax off. What was this like a like an 80s
• 38:29
  montage? Yeah, I was.
• 38:32
  Johnny stands on the balance board in the pond as he performs
• 38:34
  Akata. He does well until he slipped
• 38:36
  and falls into the pond. Johnny Angley splashes water,
• 38:39
  calling the board unleveled. Daniel retorts that there might
• 38:42
  be a little unbalanced inside Johnny.
• 38:44
  However, Johnny doesn't understand how any of this will
• 38:46
  work in a real fight. Exasperated.
• 38:50
  Thank you for that word, fandom. Exasperated, Daniel reiterates
• 38:55
  that Miagido isn't about fighting.
• 38:57
  It's like once every season they use that big word in there and
• 39:04
  this was it and this was it. This was basically it.
• 39:07
  Exasperated Danny reader, is that Miyagido isn't about
• 39:10
  fighting. Mr. Miyagi said the best defense
• 39:12
  in all karate is not be there. Johnny asked if he don't be
• 39:20
  there jabbing that Miyagi taught Daniel send you an ancient
• 39:23
  family karate. But Danny didn't help him with
• 39:25
  his English. I love that we're training now
• 39:31
  over and Johnny getting a taste of Yaga.
• 39:34
  Though Daniel will learn Eagle Fang tomorrow.
• 39:38
  Oh God I love the montage. There it was.
• 39:42
  It was pretty good stuff. Like they've been doing that
• 39:47
  like the past few seasons. These past few episodes, Kenny
• 39:53
  and Leah play Dunyon Lord as they get to know one another and
• 39:55
  is happy to be making a new friend.
• 39:57
  He looks over her Instagram, finding it cool.
• 39:59
  He's oblivious to the fact that the person, on the other hand,
• 40:02
  isn't Leah, but Anthony Larouche and his friends.
• 40:05
  How long would these motherfuckers playing like?
• 40:08
  No, right? The entire night I just going at
• 40:12
  it time, making fun of it. I'm just like long con really.
• 40:17
  You're really. I feel so bad for him.
• 40:23
  Yeah, this looks rough. Yes, I hated that and the fact
• 40:27
  that Anthony, Anthony, Anthony is behind it all.
• 40:33
  And the fact that Anthony knew the game because they're all
• 40:37
  like, well, how do you know so much information?
• 40:39
  Because he, he's a nerd too, you know what I mean?
• 40:43
  He is a whatever, A gamer. No, not that nerd.
• 40:48
  Gamers, nerds, You know what I mean?
• 40:50
  He's a gamer. How come these kids don't know
• 40:52
  about gaming? Like come on Hut.
• 40:55
  Because it's a computer game, it's probably different than
• 41:00
  isn't it? Like Dungeons and Dragons or
• 41:01
  something. Feels like Dungeons and Dragons.
• 41:04
  It feels like the riders decided what's what's Fortnite.
• 41:08
  I don't understand what that is. That's where kids are playing
• 41:12
  these guys. Fortnite, not Dungeons and
• 41:15
  Dragons, Dungeon Wars. Or you could have made something
• 41:18
  like 2019. What was it?
• 41:21
  Minecraft. Yeah, Minecraft was very
• 41:26
  popular, yes. For children, yeah.
• 41:29
  Like you could have made something like that Lego bricks.
• 41:34
  But Dungeon Lord like OK Anthony shares Kenny, his cosplaying
• 41:42
  secret is safe with him, and his favorite character is Doctor
• 41:47
  Scribble Bottoms. That name makes me laugh.
• 41:54
  Anthony laugh or it operate being the lamest character, then
• 41:57
  launching the details about the character.
• 41:59
  Thompson wonders how Anthony knows all of that forcing.
• 42:02
  Anthony covered that. He overheard nerve talking about
• 42:05
  it. Nobody's talked about it.
• 42:08
  You knew. Thompson proposed having Kenny
• 42:10
  meet them at Balboa Park while cuffling at Doctor
• 42:13
  Scribblebottom. Kenny and Oliver, the chance to
• 42:15
  hang out with Leah, agreed to meet up that night.
• 42:17
  I looked at the park is called Balboa Rocky.
• 42:26

  episode you're listening to. But first, let me tell you about
• 43:47
  Dark Freight creations. Dark freight creations are
• 43:50
  candles that are vibrant, colorful marble tops, amazing
• 43:55
  mouth watering fragrances fueled by lovely braided cotton wigs,
• 43:59
  paper threads woven into every cosmic for a clean, romantic,
• 44:03
  slow and consistent burn. Each candle's unique from the
• 44:08
  next as they are hand mixed and hand poured right in Grass
• 44:12
  Valley, CA. They use only coconut and soy
• 44:15
  waxes for a safer, cleaner and longer burn time.
• 44:20
  That's almost 72 hours. That's like binging on all 130
• 44:23
  episodes of the podcast. All fragrance blends have been
• 44:27
  heavily researched. Dark Recreations not only care

• 44:45
  Hi everyone, I'm Lisa and I'm Dawn, and if you've ever watched
• 44:48
  a TV show and thought to yourself, Oh my God that season
• 44:50
  finale plotos was absolutely bonkers.
• 44:52
  Or seen a movie and thought, wow, I need to talk to somebody
• 44:55
  about this train wreck immediately.
• 44:57
  Then we think you'll fit right in with our podcast.
• 44:59
  I hate It. Let's watch it.

• 45:03
  And movies like Deep Water Killer, Sofa Rubber and Deadly
• 45:06
  Illusions. And we give them the total
• 45:08
  rinsing. They deserve It's basically
• 45:09
  group therapy for movie masochists.
• 45:11
  So come check us out wherever you stream podcasts.
• 45:19
  It is the only time you'll ever see Balboa Park.
• 45:22
  You think they're they're doing something?
• 45:24
  Is this the thing they're they're telling us something?
• 45:26
  Hidden messages. I don't.
• 45:28
  Know we love the 80s so much. Amanda shopping the high end
• 45:33
  store when Chris appears picking up a piece of her cheese she
• 45:37
  dropped. It was a wheel.
• 45:39
  He think it was a Gouda. Cheese.
• 45:41
  I don't know if it was Gouda. What?
• 45:43
  No, She asked for Gouda, so she picked up another Another wheel
• 45:47
  of cheese. Crees appears picking up the
• 45:52
  piece of cheese that she dropped.
• 45:53
  He think that he's there for the honey crisp.
• 45:56
  Honey Crisp. Honey Crisp.
• 45:59
  She points out his restraining order, but he here told that it
• 46:02
  works the other way around. She's the one in violation and
• 46:06
  here we go guys, that is incorrect.
• 46:10
  Anybody else listening who wants to know as a restraining order
• 46:13
  is not person dependent. Craze is the one who filed it,
• 46:16
  not Amanda. Additionally, if the petitioner
• 46:19
  breaches the order, the defendant can use the contact as
• 46:23
  justification to have the order modified or dismissed.
• 46:28
  You you are in control now. That's good to know.
• 46:34
  You've reached. I can make you now and then she
• 46:38
  can file it on him now. Did you?
• 46:40
  But did you see the fear in her eyes when she saw him?
• 46:44
  Yeah, I was. Like she.
• 46:47
  Looked. Really scared.
• 46:50
  That little reveal. Something in a in a grocery
• 46:53
  store, but you know, still. Right, right, right.
• 46:55
  That little reveal towards the his boots and then the the
• 47:00
  Western theme, like and then showing her face like really,
• 47:06
  you guys needed that? Ain't that scary?
• 47:09
  Come on. And she looked she did the whole
• 47:11
  thing. Look where she got looked up
• 47:12
  like, oh, it's here. Like she stepped closer to him,
• 47:20
  talking about the deal between the dojos.
• 47:22
  But no matter what happens after the tournament, she'll ensure he
• 47:26
  he asked if that's why she sabotaged Tori, something Amanda
• 47:29
  wasn't trying to do. He respects her, defending her
• 47:31
  daughter as all mothers should do.
• 47:34
  He then revealed that Tori's mother is sick so she has to pay
• 47:38
  the bills, provide food all by herself.
• 47:42
  He thinks she should leave Tori alone or face the consequences.
• 47:45
  After all, not every child is as lucky as her.
• 47:48
  He bites into the apple of the door.
• 47:49
  What consequences? Like what?
• 47:54
  He even told her? God don't mess with her dude.
• 47:56
  Was that like a saying for him to just like leave her alone or
• 48:00
  else? And then she doesn't.
• 48:02
  She's not going to listen to him, so she's going to buy her
• 48:04
  some groceries. I think that she was just trying
• 48:11
  to, I don't know, I think that she was trying to.
• 48:18
  I think she felt bad. Obviously, she felt bad.
• 48:20
  She did, she would feel bad, but same time if someone tells you
• 48:25
  leave it alone, leave it alone, she's fine.
• 48:28
  But to her, like if Crete is telling me leave it alone, I'm
• 48:34
  just going to leave it alone. I'm not going to leave it alone.
• 48:36
  I'm going to do something about it because who the fuck is Crete
• 48:39
  to tell me what to do, right? Well, of course she's not going
• 48:43
  to listen to crease. Nobody's going to listen to
• 48:45
  Crease. Just kidding.
• 48:51
  Daniel goes to Johnny's apartment, expecting to wake him
• 48:53
  up with his arrival. He surprises me.
• 48:57
  Johnny not only awake, but ready for training.
• 48:59
  There's another 80s montage there.
• 49:02
  I love it. Two montage there.
• 49:04
  I love the 80s montages, they're awesome.
• 49:07
  Daniel taken to the Eagle Fang Dojo.
• 49:09
  Weber Industrial. I'll be blindfolded as Johnny
• 49:12
  Aspen rated no longer awaits the problem to show up at his
• 49:15
  doorstep. Because he waits.
• 49:17
  He waits for he waits for Pop. He doesn't strike birth.
• 49:23
  He lets everything come to him because an ego doesn't follow
• 49:27
  the attack lead and grow into what they were meant to be.
• 49:30
  Men. He has Daniel shovel.
• 49:34
  Yeah, that's fine. He has Daniel Shovel hot cold
• 49:36
  out of a forge, climate change everywhere, a rope and do
• 49:39
  knuckle push ups on a wind crate, all while hurling
• 49:41
  motivational insults with him. He rigs a baseball launcher
• 49:44
  across the room, passing Daniel's hands, and the man
• 49:47
  tries to block the hurling ball. Johnny correctens and not
• 49:50
  defensive training. He has Daniel Walker across the
• 49:52
  hot cold shovel out. As Daniel tries the baseballs,
• 49:56
  Johnny urges him to attack. Daniel attaches one of the balls
• 50:01
  and hurls it back at the machine, knocking it over.
• 50:03
  He finishes the push up strengths across the cold and
• 50:05
  soars like an eagle off the chain.
• 50:11
  Webber was originally going to be Daniel last name Karate Kid
• 50:13
  before Ralph Macho was hired to the roots.
• 50:18
  Really. A scene where Johnny blindfolded
• 50:23
  Daniel and made him chug a crows looking pre training smoothie
• 50:26
  during the training montage was deleted.
• 50:29
  It was meant to be vodka and eggs mix but spiraled into
• 50:33
  whatever the prop master made. Ralph Macho filmed the scene but
• 50:38
  it was ultimately deleted. He explained a unique taste,
• 50:40
  saying it was like if Johnny Lawrence grabbed everything.
• 50:43
  This bridge we can eat the sink of kicker and ham whether it was
• 50:52
  expired or not. Maybe threw in some protein that
• 50:55
  he heard about and put in the blender that was probably still
• 50:59
  rusty and mildewing for for Daniel.
• 51:08
  Where'd you see this? At Rocky when he jug the egg.
• 51:18
  Kenny arrived at Balboa Park in his cosplay outfit.
• 51:21
  Anthony and his friends emerged that they mocked and laughed at
• 51:23
  Kenny. It turned out that Kenny was
• 51:26
  catfished by Anthony. No, you don't say.
• 51:30
  They record the entire incident. Kenny doesn't want them to post
• 51:32
  it and run just for Anthony's phone, knocking it to the
• 51:35
  ground. The impacts breaks the phone.
• 51:37
  Thompson urges Anthony to use his karate mood.
• 51:41
  Like I feel like Anthony didn't want him to do it at all.
• 51:46
  Like as soon as his phone knocked down and broke and he's
• 51:48
  all like, oh, you broke my phone.
• 51:50
  Not like his dad can't buy him anymore, right?
• 51:53
  All this other stuff from past seasons like but he for himself.
• 51:58
  Right, right. But didn't he say what was it
• 52:01
  Siri add something PSP or whatever it was to?
• 52:05
  Another PlayStation from the thing.
• 52:09
  Like it's not like he can't do that himself but period.
• 52:11
  Like all his his bully friends are for his house.
• 52:15
  Like, oh hell, Nah, he broke your shit.
• 52:18
  You should beat his ass for doing that.
• 52:20
  Dude, I can get to know it. Y'all asked.
• 52:24
  Y'all told him. Like Laruza's your dad.
• 52:28
  What are you doing? Like knock him out?
• 52:33
  Yeah, he has. He needs a new group of friends,
• 52:35
  that's all I'm saying. Yeah, Kenny admits he didn't
• 52:39
  need to break the phone. Yeah, Kenny admits he didn't
• 52:42
  mean to break the phone. The kids around Kenny and one
• 52:45
  retain restraints him while the others hit him.
• 52:47
  They urge Anthony uses Miyagi don't move, calling him Lapuza
• 52:50
  when he doesn't. As Anthony readies himself,
• 52:54
  Kenny breaks free and runs off. He hops the fence and loses the
• 52:58
  boys in the street, ultimately hiding a recycling bin to a
• 53:00
  border attack when he run off. Did it remind you of Karate Kid?
• 53:06
  Yep. Yep.
• 53:08
  Went after Danielle and he, Mr. Miyagi jumped in and saved him.
• 53:11
  Yep. But this time, Kenny.
• 53:14
  By the way, yeah, yeah, I know. I was like, my anxiety was like,
• 53:18
  Oh my God, because who's going to come save him?
• 53:21
  Mr. Miyagi's not around. Daniel's not around.
• 53:24
  Like, who's going to come save him?
• 53:26
  So thankfully he got over the fence.
• 53:29
  And I was also I was disappointed they didn't show
• 53:32
  the flashback. Oh yeah.
• 53:36
  But yeah. I feel like they should have.
• 53:39
  They should. They showed everything, but they
• 53:41
  don't show us. I know like so this is where we
• 53:44
  should break an episode. Johnny takes Daniel to hockey
• 53:49
  game to watch other men beat the hell out of each other.
• 53:53
  Wait. The training isn't over yet,
• 53:55
  which concerns Daniel. Johnny wants Danny to show his
• 53:57
  toughness. Like the players, the only rule
• 53:59
  is intimidation, which is why striking first is important.
• 54:02
  Two players are checking the divider, making both men jump.
• 54:06
  Daniel points out the penalty of fearing that.
• 54:09
  Johnny shouts out to the ref. Who which?
• 54:11
  What ref listens to people? What he did that?
• 54:23
  The referee penalizes the player and puts them in the penalty
• 54:25
  box, which is only a few feet from Daniel and Johnny.
• 54:29
  The player hurls insult at them, but Daniel does his best to the
• 54:32
  escalated situation despite Johnny repeatedly.
• 54:34
  Football player. Like seriously, Like he told him
• 54:37
  everything that happened. He's like, oh, I didn't see it,
• 54:39
  but if he says so, yeah, it must be true.
• 54:46
  You go penalty box after the game, Daniel admits to having
• 54:51
  fun as not even Daniel can ruin hockey for him.
• 54:53
  Johnny points out that the team won because they beat the crap
• 54:56
  out of the other team, not because they were on defense.
• 55:02
  I love Johnny. Daniel has better understanding
• 55:06
  of Eagle Fact but doesn't plan to change his stripe.
• 55:10
  Johnny just wants some respect for his teaching, so Daniel
• 55:14
  likens the respect to a madman with a nuke.
• 55:21
  Felt felt. Johnny accepts that.
• 55:24
  Now the hockey team. The hockey team approaches
• 55:26
  Daniel and their anger is evident.
• 55:28
  They bring up Daniel's challenge that he can kick their ass any
• 55:31
  day. Though Daniel explains that
• 55:32
  Johnny said it, not him. He goes to point at Johnny who
• 55:35
  was gone. One player recognizes Daniel
• 55:37
  from business and karate commercials, even in mentioning
• 55:39
  how man that runs the dealership.
• 55:41
  Daniel warns the player that Amanda, who they call his hot,
• 55:45
  who they call hot, his wife, they think I call her and make
• 55:49
  new comments. Annoying Daniel.
• 55:55
  I mean, take a test run with her.
• 56:04
  What does it say? Shotgun?
• 56:09
  And then I'll be in the backseat.
• 56:10
  What? What are you doing in the
• 56:15
  backseat? I get the shotgun, but the dumb
• 56:21
  guy that said I'll be in the back seat so you're just gonna
• 56:24
  sit there and watch? You're dumb.
• 56:27
  Go away anyway. Yeah, it angered him.
• 56:32
  I would have done the same thing actually.
• 56:34
  Anger. He punches the hockey player and
• 56:36
  he launches into a takedown of each member of the team,
• 56:39
  incorporating his Eagle fan. So he disarmed 1 member to steal
• 56:43
  a hockey stick and use it to offend himself.
• 56:46
  Once the team is down, Daniel circles the aftermath.
• 56:49
  He just basically take took down a whole hockey.
• 56:53
  By himself, because Johnny was going to get a pretzel.
• 56:58
  By himself, he barely took down a yeah, they disrespected his
• 57:03
  wife. How dare you disrespect my wife.
• 57:06
  I'm taking that. I mean, this hockey team sucks.
• 57:14
  Johnny appears with a pretzel, applauding as bad as way of
• 57:16
  starting dominance. Donnie Daniel questions where
• 57:19
  Johnny went. Johnny Merely's Mercer says not
• 57:21
  be here, not be there. I love that part Shit.
• 57:27
  I'm out, I wasn't there too much.
• 57:29
  Then walks out of the building while speeding as Daniel is left
• 57:33
  on top of you. Hello.
• 57:41
  So here's the thing with Tori. Amanda talks business with
• 57:44
  Anoush in the Russo Auto Group. Tori arrived angry over the
• 57:47
  shopping bag left outside her family department as she doesn't
• 57:50
  need Amanda's sympathy. Anoush tries to call Tori but
• 57:53
  it's only threatening so to leave the situation.
• 57:56
  Tori promises this will be all over soon when she humiliates
• 57:58
  Sam at the All Valley. She sings Amanda for lighting a
• 58:02
  fire under her as she really needed that.
• 58:04
  Anoush wonders if they should call the police but the man
• 58:07
  refuses. She also doesn't want Daniel to
• 58:09
  know about the wind stuff. Tori performed well when she
• 58:16
  slipped like that. Like when everything is like
• 58:21
  against her. Like whoever hasn't watched
• 58:28
  season 6 soldier ears. Give me give me 15 seconds and
• 58:33
  then you can like skip 15 seconds right now.
• 58:37
  Her mom dying and possibly could have fought Sam in one like had
• 58:45
  they let it could have like I feel like she could have done
• 58:51
  it. Sam, Yeah.
• 58:52
  Like if they if they, if they ended up fighting, she could
• 58:54
  have done it. Oh.
• 58:57
  She could have beat her. Like she performed well when
• 59:02
  she's like, under the pressure. Yeah, Yes, it does.
• 59:09
  But other than that, like everything else, like I'm gonna
• 59:11
  use my Dime Tour, Freddy Krueger stuff and, you know, cheat.
• 59:17
  Like she didn't know other people were cheating for her.
• 59:23
  I feel that's probably in a lot of us, though, Like she takes
• 59:32
  her, her whatever her pain, her anger, all that, and it it fuels
• 59:37
  her fire, basically her emotions, yeah.
• 59:44
  Yeah, yeah, they do. She does that.
• 59:47
  OK, spoiler over. Later, Kenny talks about how
• 59:54
  miserable things have been at school lately.
• 59:56
  He explains that everyone laughs at him over the video and he
• 59:58
  posted He's also chased and beat up every day.
• 1:00:01
  And doesn't know how to keep going and he doesn't feel safe.
• 1:00:04
  On the way home, the roof and his friends throw milk on Kenny
• 1:00:06
  while riding the bus. Kenny explains that one of his
• 1:00:09
  bullies knows karate reveal Sean Payne.
• 1:00:15
  Sean who's his brother older brother laughed on a karate
• 1:00:18
  statement. He tells Kenny not to worry as
• 1:00:20
  he knows a guy who can help. I'm like son of a bitch.
• 1:00:25
  He's joining cover guy and that is the last and only time you
• 1:00:32
  will see Sean on season 4. That little freaking reveal
• 1:00:38
  right there for like 5 seconds. Him laughing.
• 1:00:41
  I know a guy that is the best thing to come out of this
• 1:00:45
  episode right here that oh, because I wasn't expecting that.
• 1:00:54
  And then like, how are you going to be Shawn's brother and not
• 1:00:57
  know how to fight also? Right.
• 1:01:02
  Same with Larusso Anthony, like how is your dad the karate
• 1:01:06
  expert and you not know how to fight but you're this fucking
• 1:01:10
  big ass bully. Exactly.
• 1:01:15
  Balance. That's what I said earlier, that
• 1:01:19
  this whole episode was about balance.
• 1:01:23
  We're finding balance between Johnny and Daniel.
• 1:01:27
  They're using each other's moves.
• 1:01:30
  Anthony is the bully. Kenny is the one that's getting
• 1:01:33
  bullied when like their their kinship is the exact opposite.
• 1:01:43
  Anthony's dad is the one that gets bullied.
• 1:01:46
  Kenny's brother is the one that does the bullying.
• 1:01:49
  Even Major pain. Major Payne is a fucking bully.
• 1:01:52
  You know damn well he is. I'm sorry, I'm kidding.
• 1:02:01
  This is the first. Yeah, I think that was it.
• 1:02:03
  Right? That's it.
• 1:02:04
  OK. Yeah.
• 1:02:07
  That was a big reveal. And then the show goes to black.
• 1:02:09
  This is the first episode not to feature series regular Chola
• 1:02:12
  Maraduena, Vanessa Rubio and Thomas Ian Griffith.
• 1:02:16
  I think he was filming Blue Beetle at the time.
• 1:02:21
  Like either of this part or at the very end of the season is
• 1:02:25
  why you don't see him until like when he shows up in math ago.
• 1:02:29
  But he was like he wasn't put he wasn't in certain episodes
• 1:02:33
  because he was doing other stuff.
• 1:02:35
  It also is the first episode not to feature any Miyagi Doe or
• 1:02:38
  Eagle Fang students as it was an Anthony based episode.
• 1:02:43
  Kenny. Yeah, Anthony and Kenny.
• 1:02:45
  Yeah. The second time Sammy Dimitri
• 1:02:47
  absent, the second after the season.
• 1:02:50
  Though she doesn't appear, her brother Anthony does with his
• 1:02:52
  biggest world yet, making this the first episode where their
• 1:02:54
  ladder appears without his sister.
• 1:02:56
  I just realized that yes, Sam wasn't in the episode either.
• 1:03:00
  Sam usually everywhere. First time Eli is happening.
• 1:03:05
  The second episode of a series as a season as a series regular
• 1:03:09
  and with Miguel having his first app in this episode, Daniel and
• 1:03:12
  Johnny are now the only two characters have appeared in
• 1:03:15
  every episode. OK, badass moment.
• 1:03:19
  What do you think? If I had to pick one because it
• 1:03:23
  the only one I am going to say is when Daniel.
• 1:03:27
  That's the karate of their hockey players.
• 1:03:29
  About the whole hockey team on his own.
• 1:03:31
  So yeah, that was definitely the bad, my favorite badass scene.
• 1:03:35
  I think that was the only badass scene, to be honest, in the
• 1:03:38
  whole episode. But what was yours?
• 1:03:41
  Yeah, that one with well, the montages, I love the entire and
• 1:03:45
  both of them had montage was his Daniel teaching Johnny Miyagido
• 1:03:55
  and there was a montage in that. But Daniel telling him, you
• 1:03:58
  know, motivational speeches, telling him a story about the
• 1:04:01
  fisherman, you tell the fisherman story.
• 1:04:03
  Was it something else? Yep, Yep.
• 1:04:07
  And then vice versa when Johnny is T doing the whole montage,
• 1:04:11
  but Daniel teaching him ego Fang, but Johnny telling him,
• 1:04:15
  you know, like offensively telling him of motivation.
• 1:04:20
  I was like, do it, shut up, hit harder.
• 1:04:23
  You're such a pussy. Like be a badass.
• 1:04:26
  Don't do that. So that was part of it.
• 1:04:30
  And then the hockey player, Daniel beating up a hockey team
• 1:04:37
  because they offended his wife though, because he offended his
• 1:04:41
  wife. And that was badass moment.
• 1:04:47
  Final thought, what did I think of this?
• 1:04:50
  Johnny just casually walks, I said.
• 1:04:51
  I love how Johnny just casually walks in with the pretzel.
• 1:04:55
  Like he was like, I knew this was going to happen.
• 1:05:01
  I knew Daniel had this, you know?
• 1:05:03
  Yeah. Yeah, What if he didn't have
• 1:05:05
  this, though? He knew Like, he just went to go
• 1:05:07
  get some stuff, like, OK. Well.
• 1:05:11
  Like I was hope I was expecting his when as soon as that's over,
• 1:05:15
  Johnny, Johnny comes back. He's like hey thanks for doing
• 1:05:19
  it and pays them each. I mean, I honestly thought
• 1:05:22
  Johnny was going to come in and help.
• 1:05:25
  I thought for sure he was going to come kick their asses with
• 1:05:28
  Daniel. I wasn't expecting him to leave
• 1:05:31
  him high and dry, but I think that was his lesson.
• 1:05:35
  Yeah. What do you think of the
• 1:05:40
  episode? I like the episode.
• 1:05:43
  It's a it's a great episode. I love, like you said, the
• 1:05:45
  flashbacks. I love those.
• 1:05:47
  I always love those. I love the fact that they're
• 1:05:50
  teaching each other their methods.
• 1:05:53
  Yeah. I it's just I I feel like it
• 1:05:55
  gets better in this season early on.
• 1:05:59
  We don't have to wait till season 5 for something, you know
• 1:06:01
  what I mean? I think I it's it's.
• 1:06:06
  Yeah, 2 two episodes in, like first two episodes in the
• 1:06:10
  season. That does really good.
• 1:06:12
  Right. Yes.
• 1:06:14
  And I love how they did like a whole back story to Kenny and
• 1:06:17
  Anthony, like, OK, we're going to we're going to pause on the
• 1:06:20
  whole everybody else's story here.
• 1:06:23
  We're going to tell you this these two, how Anthony is such
• 1:06:25
  an asshole and still after all these years because he was such
• 1:06:30
  an asshole to his dad. Now he's such an asshole to this
• 1:06:32
  other kid. And then Kenny, who we find out
• 1:06:38
  is what's his faces brother and Sean.
• 1:06:43
  And I'm just like, that is awesome right there.
• 1:06:47
  And I'm like thinking like, who's he talking to?
• 1:06:49
  Is he talking to his dad? I thought maybe he was talking
• 1:06:52
  to crease for a second. Oh well, yeah, true.
• 1:06:56
  Like no, like I don't even know anybody but.
• 1:06:58
  I. Thought he was talking.
• 1:06:59
  I don't. Even know crease, but like that
• 1:07:01
  was my first thought. I was like, oh God, it's going
• 1:07:03
  to be crease again. That's when I first saw it.
• 1:07:06
  That's what I thought. Like, I thought he was his dad
• 1:07:08
  because he's telling his dad like, yeah, so this and this and
• 1:07:10
  this. I'm.
• 1:07:11
  I'm doing good, man. I think that's very cool.
• 1:07:14
  And then he finally tells him again, like, yeah, this fucking
• 1:07:16
  shit is crazy, man. Come help.
• 1:07:19
  And then, like, they know karate.
• 1:07:21
  And then you see Sean face laughing.
• 1:07:25
  I might know a guy like, yes, Sir, I know who can help you.
• 1:07:30
  I got this, we got this. And then later on in season 6,
• 1:07:34
  like you don't have this Fuck, you don't have this.
• 1:07:39
  Like we can't, we can't do this anymore, man.
• 1:07:43
  But I love how he shows up here in this first like at least 10
• 1:07:47
  seconds. Yeah, me too, for sure.
• 1:07:56
  So yeah, the the balance between all of them.
• 1:07:58
  I, I love that that was my final solid episode.
• 1:08:01
  I really enjoyed it. I might say like, these are my
• 1:08:04
  two favorite episodes so far the season because we Lear, we
• 1:08:09
  learned a lot. Absolutely, yeah, definitely the
• 1:08:13
