And welcome back again, my friends, to the M3P Podcast.
0:33
This is basically mine, yours, or anyone's third place to hang
0:37
out in the little corner of the Internet.
0:40
It is Thursday, September 12th, 2024 and so far none of our cats
0:44
and dogs have been harmed or eaten.
0:46
Oh my God, really? You had to throw that in there?
0:52
Because that's all I've been seeing like for the past 24
0:56
hours straight. Oh.
0:59
God, I go by Evo and with me it's my esteem colleague and
1:05
coach Brandy. Hi everyone.
1:13
So you have been hearing all about this past few the past few
1:17
days. 324 hours, yes, it's all over my FYP.
1:23
That's all I see are cats and dogs being yeah and pots and
1:29
pans. Like what is going on?
1:34
How was your week? My week was good.
1:38
My week was pretty good. Long but good.
1:41
Long but good. Awesome.
1:44
Same. Didn't get enough sleep, but
1:48
here we are. Well, I never get enough sleep,
1:50
so there you go. OK, the BMA for last night and I
1:56
have aged myself with Eminem. I didn't watch the whole show
2:05
because I didn't know who anyone else was in the where I got off.
2:11
I didn't know who anyone else was at all except for Supreme
2:13
Carpenter for a Girl Made World. But everybody else has sang or
2:18
was there. I was like what?
2:21
So I figured I would watch the repeats on Twitter or YouTube.
2:26
So just like Eminem, I started to watch the show and then
2:28
bailed because it was late in the old band.
2:32
So. And I missed it you.
2:38
Just missed Eminem. That's it, That's all.
2:41
OK, he that's OK. The most though I I like Eminem.
2:45
I love it. Pushing 50.
2:47
He's all like, all right, I'm gonna start the show and then
2:49
I'm gonna head out 'cause I need to get some sleep.
2:55
'Cause he has to get some sleep, OK?
2:56
We all need to get some sleep. As soon as I saw that, I was
3:00
like, all right, show's over. Have a good night everybody.
3:05
I've literally turned a year older, so thanks for making me
3:08
feel older this week. Come on, he's old, but have a
3:16
great day. Not by much.
3:18
Thank you. Wow.
3:21
Tomorrow is Friday the 13th, so I wanted to record tonight just
3:26
so I can post tomorrow. Just some time to be available
3:28
to watch a full marathon of Jason Voorhees.
3:34
Anyways, the whole thing. Which Friday the 13th movie is
3:37
your favorite? Me.
3:41
Yes, yours, which was. Just the original really, I
3:48
would think I it's been a long time since I've watched Friday
3:50
the 13th. Any of them.
3:53
It's not my favorite horror series so.
3:57
The first one is mission. Brave.
3:59
I'd have to say probably the probably the original first one.
4:01
Yeah, OK. So.
4:04
I'm old, remember I don't remember.
4:06
I have a good memory so. So if you basically like.
4:12
Either that one or wait, what? Basically what?
4:18
As a mom, you read with Mrs. Voorhees and said like, oh.
4:26
Oh, what? They left your kids to drown, so
4:30
now you must exactly run. Oh boy.
4:35
Really. OK.
4:44
So the first one's your favorite.
4:46
Mine is Jason X. I was just going to say that was
4:49
that would be my second choice if I had a pick.
4:52
The one is chased. I did say that my favorite
4:56
slasher movie was Jason, Freddy, Freddy, Freddy with Jason.
5:01
But you know, we had both of them in there.
5:04
Yeah, yeah, that. And it's still, it's still true.
5:09
Yeah, but as a stand alone Jason movie, it's not a Jason movie.
5:13
It's just him sharing the screen with another person, same as.
5:18
Jason Fox is your favorite standalone Friday the 13th.
5:22
Yeah, he's in state. See, it's been way too long.
5:30
I don't even remember that movie.
5:32
I got to rewatch it because I know all the tropes are there.
5:39
So yeah. What is your favorite Friday
5:41
13th movie? And let us know before we move
5:47
on to the list of superstitions that were sent to us and the
5:50
list. Brandy.
5:53
Start the episode off right with some affirmation of the week for
5:57
us, please. Sure, I can do that.
6:01
I thought a good one for this week was something to do with
6:09
basically your success. Yours.
6:12
Everyone's my bestie who we'll talk about later on the show.
6:18
I am worthy enough to follow my dreams and manifest my desires.
6:28
Yes, awesome, I am working enough to follow my dreams and
6:34
manifest my. Desires.
6:36
Yeah, yeah. I love that I manifest, follow
6:43
my dreams all the time, management desire.
6:46
Like this whole podcast is coming up to 15 K pretty soon.
6:53
So I'm hoping, yeah, I'm hoping it gets up there real quick,
7:00
real soon. You're going places.
7:03
It will. It will.
7:08
For sure. So finally, let's, let's get to
7:15
the superstition, shall we? Let's get to what?
7:19
Why, why? Like let's get the whole list.
7:23
Let's get to the whole list already because it's going to be
7:26
a long one and it's going to be a doozy.
7:27
And we're just like, we're good. We're just going to be here all
7:30
night. Do you want me to start or are
7:33
you starting? Yeah, go for it.
7:39
Last week we asked was one of your most memorable
7:41
superstitions, and you all came through with a barrage of
7:43
answers. Go right ahead.
7:47
Well, I no, go ahead. You go ahead and start.
7:51
I will end. I will end mine on it.
7:53
Go ahead. So I got a few Alexandria
7:58
hopefully here she says don't have two marriage facing each
8:02
other or a portal will open. I went into a I looked that up
8:10
and everything and people were like taking videos of themselves
8:14
and mirrors facing each other. And they're like, as it gets
8:20
closer and closer, the portal becomes black and dark.
8:26
That's what I said. Another one, she says, is don't
8:32
burn a Ouija board very yet. I knew that one.
8:39
I used to have. I used to have a Ouija board, so
8:42
I knew that one, yeah. I don't know anything about
8:46
Ouijas. I haven't seen.
8:47
I was like, I've seen a movie about a Ouija board, but it's
8:49
like, all right, whatever. They've made a few, they've made
8:53
a few. OK, what else do you got?
9:01
I thought you were reading an awful list of all these
9:04
superstitions. You go back and forth, you have
9:07
some from New York people or. Oh no, I I have my own.
9:11
I counted on you for the the other all.
9:14
Right, all right, so here goes. Rebecca says there's an old
9:17
timer superstition, and that's not to rock an empty rocking
9:20
chair. It serves as an inadvertent
9:23
invitation to eat the spirit. The act of rocking symbolically
9:27
open the gateway, allowing these malevolent enemies to enter your
9:31
home. As he swayed the empty seat, the
9:33
spirits allegedly find refuge in the void, casting shadows of
9:37
dark forest on your household. This guy that crazy 83 says not
9:47
to split a pole as it is thought to give you bad luck.
9:51
But if you do split the pole, just say bread and butter to
9:54
reverse the bad luck curse. Bread and butter.
9:57
Bread and butter. Bread and butter as well as
10:01
walking under a ladder as it is thought to have originated in
10:04
ancient Egypt around 5000 years ago.
10:07
The Egyptians believed that the triangular space between the
10:09
ladder, the wall and the floor was filled with good and evil
10:11
spurs and that disturbing them with anger.
10:17
Other theories about the origin of the superstition include
10:19
medieval times. Ladders were thought to be to
10:23
resemble gallows, so walking under one would mean we're
10:26
destined for the gallows. I didn't know.
10:31
Christian belief, a ladder leaning against the wall, forms
10:33
of triangle, so breaking that triangle was blasphemous and
10:39
also the risk of injury. Just don't do it.
10:43
Be careful. We have our friends Funny Bone,
10:47
96, saying Bloody Mary in the mirror or if you help, you know
10:51
Bloody Mary. OK, so that is more, I think
10:54
like an urban legend. Yes, it is.
10:57
That's an I think that's an urban legend which falls into
11:01
fall into, of course, Friday the 13th and superstition.
11:04
So yeah. So we're doing urban legend.
11:06
That's fine, I guess. If you open an umbrella at the
11:10
house, it brings bad luck. I've heard that.
11:15
Yeah, don't let a black cat walk out in front of you.
11:18
I disagree with that one. If a black Raven flies into your
11:22
house, someone in the house is fixing to be UN alive.
11:29
That's scary. Why would a Raven fly into your
11:33
house? Why would you let a Raven fly
11:35
into your house? Exactly how would that even
11:38
happen? That is a lot, Jesse Marie says.
11:42
Not to put your purse on the floor.
11:45
What? Some people, yeah, some people
11:47
believe that putting your purse on the floor is bad luck and can
11:49
lead to financial loss. Oh, is that my issue?
11:53
OK, I have to remember that now. In Chinese culture, according to
11:57
Chinese Feng Shui, putting your purse on the floor is bad luck
12:00
because it shows disrespect for your money and wealth.
12:03
The old Chinese proverb A purse on the floor is money out the
12:06
door, illustrating the relief. OK, but what if you don't have
12:10
any money? Like I don't have any money to
12:15
lose, so I guess that doesn't really matter to me.
12:19
In Brazil, 90 to 95% of people avoid putting their purse on the
12:23
floor because they believe in the lead to bankruptcy.
12:26
Some people believe that disrespecting the bag that holds
12:29
your money can cause you to lose money.
12:32
Hey, no disrespecting the bag. Keeping your purse off the
12:39
ground can also help keep it clean if you're superstitious
12:43
and want to give your bag a better home instead of using a
12:45
purse stool. A purse stool.
12:49
Or, you know, you put it on the chair next to you.
12:51
I put it on. I always have mine on my couch
12:53
so. Now this chair is safe right
12:57
here. You can't sit there.
12:58
It's safe for somebody. For who is my bag?
13:04
Because you can't put it on the floor.
13:08
Sarah Mueller says feed off the floor when you go over railroad
13:11
tracks. Some some drivers out there
13:15
believe that you should lift your feet up when crossing over
13:17
railroad tracks. There are several motivations
13:19
behind this, like you don't, you'll never get married, click
13:25
young, or lose the person you're in a relationship with.
13:29
Wow. OK.
13:30
So that doesn't really make much sense to me because if you're
13:33
driving and you lift your feet off, you're going to get stuck
13:37
on the tracks. Yes.
13:40
Am I wrong? I feel that too.
13:42
OK. I mean that that was the first
13:44
thought in my head, like, why would you stop or why would you
13:49
not press on the gas pedal when you're going over a railroad
13:54
track? We have an e-mail, so if you
13:59
would like to go next, go right ahead.
14:02
Or do you want to wait for the e-mail to be over with?
14:05
Oh no, it's completely up to you.
14:08
Why don't you go ahead? Like I feel like I need to end
14:10
on this one. You need to end on that one.
14:13
OK, well I actually looked up my superstition is or I guess I
14:24
don't know, my favorite superstar, which I didn't even
14:26
ever considered a superstition before until we started talking
14:29
about this, but Wishbones. So I have a tradition.
14:36
Every Thanksgiving I always save the wishbone, dry it out and
14:40
make a wish with someone. I've done that forever since I
14:44
was young and I continue to do it every year.
14:47
So apparently a wishbone superstition started it says or
14:53
I looked it up and it started thousands of years ago with the
14:58
a true scan Italian empire. They dedicated the they
15:05
dedicated the future or decided, I'm sorry, they decided the
15:10
future by observing chickens and viewed, hang on, let me see what
15:17
I'm saying here. Viewed the collarbone as a
15:22
sacred part of the bird. The true skins would let the
15:25
collarbone dry out and then keep them to make wishes.
15:29
Romans adopted this tradition, interestingly enough, and
15:34
started to started breaking the bones among two people due to
15:40
lack of availability. I thought that was interesting.
15:44
So that's where that came from. Yeah, I never even thought of
15:47
that. I had to look that up because
15:49
yeah, that's. The.
15:51
Breaking the wishbone and the person with the longer piece.
15:56
I guess so to like describe it. Their wish comes true, you know
16:02
that, right? Yeah.
16:04
So the one that gets like the longer the piece of the half or
16:08
whatever their wish comes true. So, yeah, the other interesting
16:14
thing I looked up was because I mentioned I think a couple weeks
16:18
to you about a story of how on Friday the 13th, it was the last
16:24
Friday the 13th we had we, it was a bucket list of my son's
16:29
girlfriend to go to a graveyard at midnight on Friday the 13th.
16:35
So we decided to do that. Yeah, Yeah.
16:39
And I had to look that up. And it says superstitions and
16:44
urban legends. Many cultures for and fork
16:48
forklore associate associate. I can't talk graveyards at
16:54
midnight with supernatural occurrences or paranormal
16:58
activity, which can be unsettling and frightening,
17:01
especially for those who believe in such things.
17:05
Yeah, So we took pictures and I took a picture of my son and I
17:13
have the picture and believe it or not, you can see there's
17:18
shadows and spirits around when we took pictures that night.
17:22
So I have those pictures. Of course, I can't show them
17:24
here, but yeah, I thought that was interesting.
17:28
It was really creepy and I can't believe I did it, but I did it.
17:30
Me and my son and his girlfriend and a couple of friends, we went
17:33
and did that because she wanted to do that so badly.
17:35
So we were in a cemetery at midnight on Friday the 13th,
17:41
walking around, seeing what we could find, and sure enough,
17:45
took pictures and there were spirits.
17:47
And I don't want to say spirits, there were shadows round that
17:52
were not there when the picture was taken.
17:54
But in the picture you can clearly see them.
17:57
So it was. Yeah.
18:00
Interesting. Yeah, wow.
18:05
So I I definitely, that made me believe more so I guess than
18:09
what I did before in those things.
18:14
Oh. And you've never gone to a
18:18
cemetery at midnight? Oh, you should do that.
18:23
You just say you're good. No.
18:25
No reason to. I'm good.
18:32
Nope. One of the things to stay away
18:34
from is cemetery at midnight. Yeah.
18:38
Yeah, that's what it says. It says you should.
18:41
I guess we didn't listen. And finally we have our friend
18:45
Kat who told me she was going to e-mail me a list and boy did she
18:49
send me a long list. 40 items on this list which we already
18:55
talked a few of them. Some of these are Spanish
18:58
superstitions and I heard some of these before when I was
19:00
working with my Spanish coworkers.
19:02
Oh, let me look it up. Mexican culture is rich with
19:07
superstitions that blend indigenous Spanish and other
19:10
influences. Here are some common Mexican
19:12
superstitions. EY or ma deoho.
19:16
It is believed that envy or excessive admiration cause harm,
19:19
especially to babies and children.
19:20
To protect against it, people often red bracelets or ambulance
19:23
with an I. Simple.
19:27
I said someone. Someone else already said this,
19:30
but it's like you say it again. Sweeping over someone's feet is
19:34
believed to curse them to never get married.
19:37
If it happens accidentally, the person must immediately spit on
19:39
the broom to break the curse. Working those hours and
19:46
sleeping, of course I said this already.
19:48
I've never seen any of them spit on the broom.
19:52
But they like warn me, don't sweep my feet or else I'm going
19:55
to be a widow or I'm going to marry a widow.
20:02
So. I want to know which one it is
20:04
because it's 2 completely different.
20:08
It is. Do we know for sure?
20:10
I don't know placing the coin under the foot of a bride or
20:14
groom to ensure financial prosperity in marriage is
20:18
customary for either the bride and groom to put a coin under a
20:21
shoe during the wedding ceremony.
20:25
This one I have all kinds of family members that have done
20:29
this. Cutting babies hair before their
20:31
first birthday is believe that their first birthday will cost
20:35
them to have bad luck or that their hair will not grow
20:38
properly. Really.
20:40
Yeah, so if you cut a kids hair before their first birthday,
20:45
they their hair will not grow properly.
20:48
That's interesting. That is so bitty.
20:52
That's interesting. I I mean, I personally have
20:55
never done that like a 40 year old, right?
21:00
The owl or La Lechuza Hearing the calls.
21:03
An owl, especially at night, is often considered a bad omen,
21:06
symbolizing death or misfortune. I had friends who told me that
21:15
the owl is usually bad luck and if you see an owl, curse at
21:19
them. And that's what they were doing
21:23
one night and I was just like, what are you doing this and out?
21:27
And that's when they told me the whole story behind it.
21:30
I was like, OK, that's cool. I don't eat it up.
21:34
Of course I don't. I didn't believe that at the
21:36
time. Putting scissors under the bed,
21:40
under a child's mattress. Believed to help them sleep
21:42
better and keep evil spirits away.
21:45
Putting salt on someone's doorstep.
21:48
It sought to bring them bad luck or drive away negative energy.
21:52
So either one like if you don't like the person and you put salt
21:56
in the doorstep, you send, you give them bad luck.
22:01
But if you do it yourself, you drive away negative energy.
22:10
Walking under a ladder said that spilling salt Of course to
22:14
reverse it one must throw a pinch of salt over their
22:17
shoulder their left shoulder. Breaking mirrors is said to
22:22
bring 7 years of bad luck putting a hat on the bed, which
22:27
I've done recently some which and I didn't know until like
22:32
I've like I've seen this stuff. Placing a hat on the bed is
22:36
considered bad luck and sought to invite misfortune or illness.
22:40
Yeah, I've been putting my hat on the bed for this entire time.
22:45
So. You put your hat on the bed and
22:47
I put my purse on the floor. What are we doing?
22:50
Sweeping at night, sweeping the house at night.
22:52
Believe to sweep away good luck and prosperity.
22:55
It sweeps away, sweeps away. Good luck.
22:58
Yes. Oh, good thing I don't sleep at
23:00
night. You see a black cat seeing a
23:05
considered a bad omen putting a glass of water by the door.
23:08
To ward off negative energy or absorb bad spirit, some people
23:11
place a glass of water near the entrance of their home.
23:14
It is believed that the water absorbs any negativity it tries
23:16
to enter. I'm going to do that.
23:20
I think I'm going to do that. Yes.
23:24
Avoiding mirrors at night, looking into a mirror at night
23:26
on a darker side. They invite you.
23:28
Spirits or bad luck. Cool.
23:31
Yeah, keeping Saints upside down.
23:34
People sometimes play statues or Saints like Saint Anthony upside
23:37
down to encourage them to fill a prayer request, such as finding
23:40
a lost object or finding a love. Oh, I like that one. #17 I've
23:47
done this every year, eating grapes at midnight on New Year's
23:51
Eve, 12 grapes at the stroke of midnight and New Year's Eve, one
23:54
for each month of the upcoming years.
23:55
Believed to bring good luck. Each grape represents A wish or
23:59
hope for the new year. So do you have to make a wish or
24:03
you just eat the grapes? Just eat the grape, That's OK.
24:06
You have to remind me to do that one.
24:08
All right, Lighting candles for protection Specific colored
24:12
candles believed to bring protection, love for clarity and
24:15
other blessings. For instance, red candles are
24:17
often used to bring love, while white candles are used for
24:20
purification. Purify yourself 19 Covering
24:28
Mirrors during Thunderstorm Some people believe that mirrors can
24:31
attract lightning, so they cover them during thunderstorms to
24:33
upload bad luck or harm. And suddenly it just triggered
24:37
me that this was done before when I was a child.
24:41
Really. Yeah.
24:42
They would cover the mirror. And I'm like why?
24:46
Now you know. I'm like, huh?
24:48
This is nothing #20 Tuesday the 13th.
24:52
Marcus Fresse In Mexican culture, Tuesday the 13th rather
24:56
than Friday the 13th, is considered a particularly
24:59
unlucky day. There's a saying, and Marcus
25:02
seen the Casas meeting on Tuesday.
25:05
Neither marry nor embark on a journey.
25:13
I'm going to hell for this one. I'm just thinking of a guy in a
25:20
hockey mask named Jesus. Oh my.
25:23
Oh. My God.
25:32
Oh wow. Jesus, I apologize.
25:39
I apologize. No, I'm Mexican.
25:43
I can say Pregnant women in the lunar eclipse.
25:46
La Luna is believed that pregnant women should avoid
25:48
looking at the lunar eclipse. I heard about this to prevent
25:51
their baby from being born with a cleft lip or other
25:54
abnormalities. To prevent this, some women wear
25:56
a metal key or a safety pin over their belly.
26:00
Come on. Really.
26:03
Huh. Covering baby's head outdoors
26:07
and it's common belief that exposing a baby's head to the
26:10
cold or wind can cause illness, so many mothers cover their
26:13
baby's heads with hats or blankets with outside regardless
26:16
of the weather #23. Hang on one second.
26:24
That reminded me of a scene in the movie that you do not want
26:29
to watch about being pregnant, like Home and where the where
26:36
the heart is. That one I was talking about,
26:38
she jumps or she thinks she's pregnant and her friend tells
26:43
her, and this would be, I guess, a superstition.
26:46
Her friend tells her that if she jumps backwards like five times,
26:51
I think it was five times, she'll no longer be pregnant.
26:54
Is that like a Spanish thing? Have you ever heard of that?
26:57
That was that was actually in the movie.
27:00
Just like if you jump backwards five times, I think it was five
27:04
times, you won't be pregnant. I'm like, that's really weird.
27:10
Have you ever heard of that? You know, how many teenagers
27:13
would have done that already? And.
27:16
This is an older movie. Well, not that old, but OK.
27:19
Oh, yes. OK, So you see?
27:20
Yeah. OK, so Danny's seen the movie.
27:22
Yeah. You know what I'm talking about.
27:24
Yeah, it was something like that.
27:25
Like she's like, oh, jump backwards 5 something.
27:28
Yeah, that. I had never heard of that, no.
27:32
Told you the movie is full of superstitions. #23 Money on the
27:40
New Year Putting money in your shoe or wallet on your leave is
27:43
believed to ensure financial success in the coming year.
27:48
Please don't do any of this. Plus myth, power superstitions.
27:54
OK guys. Burning sage or incense or culpo
28:01
or traditional resin is a practice belief to cleanse bases
28:04
of negative energies and by good spirits.
28:09
Bringing luck with a coin in the mouth when entering a new place,
28:11
a situation where luck is needed.
28:12
Some believe that holding a coin in the mouth brings to a
28:14
fortune. Yeah, that singing in my mouth.
28:18
Right. No kidding.
28:20
Knocking on wood, of course, to avoid jinxing someone or to
28:23
protect against bad luck after making a positive statement,
28:26
people often knock on wood. We do that too.
28:29
I've heard that one. Avoiding cutting nails at night
28:33
What Avoiding cutting nails at night?
28:36
Cutting your nails at night is believed to bring bad luck or
28:39
invite theft based on the idea that it serves the spirits of
28:42
the night. We.
28:44
Oh my goodness. I've done this.
28:46
Like what do you do? Cut your nails in the morning
28:50
when I'm doing anything #28 putting a broom behind the door.
28:59
Placing a broom behind the door Assad to chase the way unwanted
29:02
visitors or guests from your home.
29:05
OK. Placing a lemon with cloves to
29:09
ward off bad energy. A lemon studded with cloves and
29:12
placed in the home leads to absorb negative energy and
29:14
protect against envy. You always cut your nails at
29:18
night, Leona, so many days. Same #30 Sleeping with feet
29:23
facing the door is considered bad luck to sleep at your face,
29:27
feet facing the door as it symbolizes the way the dead are
29:29
carried out of a house. What?
29:30
The hell what? Oh my God, no.
29:33
Do you mean I have to like rearrange my bedroom now?
29:36
Yeah. Great.
29:37
I don't want to hear any more of these.
29:38
So more of these. Send more.
29:42
I'm going to have to rearrange my bedroom this weekend. 31
29:46
sweeping outward can sweep away Welt, especially toward the door
29:49
is sought to sweep away Welt and prosperity, so it's best to
29:52
sweep toward the center of the house.
29:56
Yeah, I do that already. Whatever.
30:01
Putting a figure of Saint Jude by the door.
30:03
The patron St. of lost causes lost in place near the front
30:06
door to bring hope and help in difficult situations.
30:09
Dropping silverware as a visitor sign.
30:11
Dropping a spoon or fork is believed to sign to signal that
30:14
an unexpected death is coming. If it's a fork, a male visitor
30:17
expected. If it's a spoon, a female
30:19
visitor. You just I'm just clumsy.
30:23
I just drop something that doesn't mean anything.
30:26
Come on. Putting crosses with ashes or
30:33
chalk above boards and some places, especially during Holy
30:36
Week, people mark their doors with a cross made of ashes or
30:39
chalk to protect the home or from evil.
30:43
Leaving water by the bedside for spirits.
30:45
Some believe that placing a glass of water by the bedside
30:47
helps spirits are salted as the seeds who may visit during the
30:50
night to quench their thirst. You thirsty?
30:58
Avoiding handing objects over to trash over the threshold.
31:01
Handing objects directly over a door threshold considered bad
31:03
luck. Instead, both people should step
31:06
inside or outside to make the exchange.
31:09
Seeing a butterfly inside the house.
31:10
A butterfly entering their house, particularly a Black 1,
31:12
is often considered a sign of the pending boom and bad news.
31:16
What? Just a I've never seen a black
31:20
butterfly before. Never.
31:21
Seen one either. So it's not any butterfly, it's
31:24
a black butterfly specific because butterflies are supposed
31:27
to be good luck. Probably a moth tying red
31:34
ribbons to cacti or plants to ward off the mazeoho evil eye or
31:38
prevent bad energy is common to the tie a red ribbon around the
31:41
cacti or other plant. Putting an upside down glass on
31:45
Saints altar. This practice believe the trap
31:47
negative spirits are bad luck keeping them at Bay and finally
31:50
finding a penny or coin facing up.
31:52
If you find a coin with their heads side up is considered
31:55
lucky. Picking it up, it's believed to
31:56
bring good fortune. With that one, I actually found
32:00
out also that it some people believe picking it up yes is
32:04
good luck, but also some people believe giving it a giving that
32:08
penny away is also good luck. Whole heartless game and it's
32:15
really, really good. From what I've heard of it, the
32:17
part that I heard, yeah. So yeah, he is Laurfield.
32:25
Laurfield is, yeah. He sent it to me and it's
32:32
awesome. And I said we should play it
32:35
here and play it on the podcast. In this hollow room.
32:52
But you can't break my heart if I never fucking loved you, the
32:56
shadow whispers, they fall on deaf gears retains on the full
33:05
blood I see clear through the tears the sweet was and never
33:08
till reach my face. Play the heartless game and I'll
33:12
RIP up the cherries. I eat your person and I'll
33:14
probably back. No love to set a no need to
33:20
return. You can't break my heart if I
33:26
never fucking loved you. I like the world, but your fake
33:36
confession stone coke. Feel the pressure as your story
33:40
caves in hearts and empty vessel you never could win.
33:44
Burn bridges in the night left with hollow spots.
33:46
You try to rewind the plane but it's lost in the dark.
33:50
I turned away with no more to pursue.
33:52
You can't break my heart if I never fucking love you.
33:55
No love for Shadow, no needs to return.
34:00
Just a ghost in your nightmares. That's not fucking that.
34:04
You can't blame my heart if I never fucking loved you.
34:11
There's a no more crumbling band.
34:23
No love for Shadow, no need to pretend it's just a ghost in
34:27
your nightmares. That's my fucking attitude.
34:30
You can't break my heart if I never fucking loved you.
35:12
You heard any of the breakdown episodes in the past?
35:14
Or if you're new here myself, my Co host Randy are massive Karate
35:17
Kid and corporate high fans. So we decided we were going to
35:19
rewatch the show on Netflix and breakdown the episode scene by
35:21
scene and tell you what we thought about them.
35:23
You are more than welcome to follow along and we watch the
35:26
show with us as some of our friends are doing and listening
35:29
to the podcast as well. There will be spoilers at that
35:33
time. We do tend to add in trivia or
35:34
ask a question to for you to ponder over is what we do here.
35:37
Also, it must be always be said on every episode because we're
35:40
always critiquing the show. We love Cobra Kai, we love The
35:45
Karate Kid universe, right? We do.
35:49
We do. But don't let us influence you
35:52
on the show. We're just fans of the show.
35:53
There are millions of other fans out there who have different
35:55
opinions. Ours just happens to have a
35:58
podcast attached to it. Just listen to the show.
36:03
Humorous. Let us know.
36:04
Hey, I think your opinions are wrong.
36:06
You're fine. I think your opinions are right,
36:08
OK. I think your theories are off
36:10
the wall. You're, you're entitled to your
36:15
own wrong opinion. It's OK if you want to go back
36:20
and listen to the past episodes about Cobra Kai and what we
36:22
thought about them, I suggest you go back and listen to
36:24
episode 154 and then continue on from there.
36:28
Season 3, Episode 8 titled The Good, the Bad and the Badass.
36:33
Obviously it's a shot at the good, the bad and the ugly.
36:37
Standing at a monster. Synostis informed that this
36:41
year's All Valley Karate Tournament is being canceled.
36:44
The three competing sensei attend the sitting council
36:46
meeting to save it. Written by Matea Green, who's
36:50
written 26 episodes of Cobra Kai, and she's also an assistant
36:53
to an executive producer of the show.
36:55
Doesn't know, doesn't tell us which one, but hey, she's
36:59
assisting over there. Directed by Jennifer Salota,
37:02
who's also directed the past episode.
37:04
Episode 7 Yes, The episode code opens by showing the contrasting
37:11
methodologies I've played between the now three dojos.
37:13
Daniel, Johnny and Creed alternate with the with their
37:16
class. The lesson they're teaching.
37:18
It starts out with Daniel telling his students he knows
37:21
it's been a while after his class class after the whole
37:24
fight at the school. He wasn't sure if Miyagi though
37:26
should stay open. Things have gotten worse since
37:29
he shut down, that's why he's back.
37:30
The only way to stop corporate guy is if they all work
37:33
together. But always remember the reason
37:36
they learned karate is and it's decisions over to Johnny and his
37:40
class continuing. His lesson it says is to show
37:42
the world that his class is not a bunch of pussy ass nerds.
37:47
Yeah, I'm sorry, Pansy ass nerds.
37:49
Pansy not. Pansy.
37:51
It's the same thing. His class is going to show them
37:55
that they're tough because he goes don't get shit on.
37:59
They're the ones that do the shitting.
38:03
I loved Miguel when he laughed at that though.
38:05
He's like the only one that got that and like he laughed at him.
38:10
Iron goes, yeah, just don't forget being a badass doesn't
38:13
mean being an asshole. The goal isn't to hurt other
38:15
kids. The goal is to any transition
38:18
over decrease who tells the class is to win at all costs.
38:22
Those they thought would be their allies have turned against
38:25
them. Now the enemies are attacking
38:26
from all sides and there's no turning back.
38:29
Now is the time to show them. Daniel continues and says
38:32
forgiveness and compassion. And that's when you lost me.
38:36
I'm like, what is this? Why?
38:38
Why? If you gave him compassion,
38:41
they're beating you guys up. Don't show forgiveness.
38:43
Compassion. Stop.
38:46
Because he is. He takes from Mr. Miyagi, that's
38:50
why. Don't turn the other cheek.
38:52
They're trying to beat you down. Fight back.
38:56
Sir Miyagi knows about defense. And that's all there is.
39:05
There is no offense, Mr. Miyagi, he continues.
39:08
Mr. Miyagi used to say if you're looking for revenge, you can
39:10
start by digging 2 graves. And he was right.
39:13
If you have hate in your heart, then you already lost.
39:16
Worse than live by Yep, you have hate in your heart.
39:20
You then you already lost. It's not easy, but you have to
39:23
do whatever you can. Two transitions over to Johnny
39:27
telling his class to beat the living crowd of them.
39:30
Don't let them push around, but you got to swoop down like an
39:32
eagle and grab them with your claws and sink your fangs into
39:36
them. They don't have fangs, But he
39:42
doesn't ever want his class to start the fight.
39:45
He just wants them to transitions over the crease.
39:47
Who tells the class to finish it.
39:49
We're good. He asks the class if he makes
39:52
himself clear and we get a three pool split screen of Miyagi
39:55
though led by Sam and Dimitri, Eagle Fang led by Omi Miguel and
39:58
Corporate Kai led by Torian Hawk yelling yes Sensei.
40:01
The three sensei's take over to the screen with the Corporate
40:04
Kai letters in front of them and they all smile because they're
40:05
all proud of their student. Except we are led to believe
40:07
that Creed is just an evil smirk because he's the bad guy.
40:11
He is the bad guy. And again, his acting skills
40:14
with his justice face. We talked about that before and
40:19
I agree with you there. Especially in this episode.
40:22
Especially in this episode. Yeah.
40:26
Next scene, Johnny and Daniel both arrived to pick Robbie up
40:29
Jubie. They should have just called
40:32
each other and like, hey, are you going to be there?
40:34
No. Are you going to be there?
40:34
No. Then we should all be there.
40:39
Daniel says he called and wanted to make sure someone was there
40:41
to pick Robbie up, and Johnny tells him that Robbie doesn't
40:43
need him, just his dad. You know his dad can pick him
40:49
up. Daniel asked if he has it under
40:50
control just the same way he had Crees under control.
40:53
That's not fair. He asked what he would think
40:55
would happen when he summoned the devil back to Earth.
40:58
Johnny tells him that Crees is his problem.
40:59
Daniel says that he's going to he's everyone's problem now, and
41:02
as usual, he's going to clean up Johnny's mess.
41:05
Johnny says he's cleaning up his own mess and he's dealing with
41:07
it. Which now they stand face to
41:09
face and look like they're about to fight, but they're
41:11
interrupted by Robbie, who isn't happy to see either of them and
41:13
tell both to stay out of his life.
41:18
Do you think Robbie is being a little over dramatic here?
41:22
Of course, we haven't seen Robbie since like past two
41:27
episodes. So it's like, what is he
41:32
thinking? He comes out and was like, I
41:36
don't need you and I don't need you, I'm leaving.
41:39
So he walks away and what was he doing the entire day?
41:42
Where did he go? Like we only get like later on
41:47
at night. I'm like, oh, OK.
41:49
No, no, he sees. He sees Tori.
41:52
Yeah. Oh, he has to check in with the.
41:56
Yeah. All right.
41:58
All right, So next scene, things are more positive for Miguel and
42:00
Sam, who run into each other at school.
42:02
Sam is happy that Miguel is back on his feet, and Miguel is just
42:05
happy talking to Sam again. They both walk towards study
42:08
hall and get reappointed. Sam shakes Miguel's hand but
42:11
noses right behind Miguel. The biggest plot to a shock of
42:13
the season, which is Yasmin and Dmitri making out in the corner.
42:18
Yes. They both deny.
42:22
Ever the oddest couple ever. That's all I'm gonna say.
42:27
Jam Jasmine's here. They needed her to do something
42:30
besides be the mean girl. So, Dmitri, what do you what do
42:33
you have? What do you?
42:33
What are you doing? Doing nothing.
42:36
Both of you get together. They both deny what's happening
42:41
and make them the excuse that they were both doing study work.
42:45
Yasmin calls to meet your freak and runs off Dmitri.
42:48
Carl yells Carl at her and then turns to Miguel and Sam to tell
42:51
them he is 100 and 1% in love with her.
42:54
He walks away. Sam can't believe it just
42:56
happened. Miguel states that love conquers
42:58
all and they go back on their way to study hall.
43:03
Yes, love conquers all, I guess, but I, you know, it's still like
43:11
I, I guess that they like took out Yasmin for season 2 and
43:17
that's fine. But season 1 she was like the
43:22
ultimate mean, big ultimate mean girl and stuff.
43:27
No, like the only people that were there for that whole front
43:30
wedgie were the Cobra Kai students.
43:33
Nobody's going to say anything, but she believes it's like it
43:36
was right in front of the school.
43:37
No, it wasn't just Cobra Kai. It was that party.
43:40
It was at the party, Yeah, just. Hold I There was a lot of
43:46
people. So she felt embarrassed and and
43:48
then like she went. People there wouldn't use.
43:52
Her She went to Paris. Well, probably because she was
43:56
embarrassed, so she had to get out of the country for a while.
44:00
In her backyard and her pool. And she's in Paris.
44:04
Unless Instagram actually gets your your where your location's
44:09
at right? I think so maybe.
44:13
You can't lie about that. I mean, you probably could.
44:18
She could have lied about it. This is your theory that she
44:20
never went to Paris that. She never went to Paris.
44:22
She got all embarrassed. She stayed at home for the
44:24
summer. She chilled.
44:27
She hid. She hid.
44:29
Out because she was embarrassed. Yeah.
44:32
And, and I don't like that you're implying that people
44:35
cannot change. You're implying that Yasmin's
44:40
not changed. She right here in your voice.
44:45
She changed because she felt bad for Dimitri.
44:48
She thought I was like, oh, these guys are hurting Dimitri.
44:51
That's a very good reason to change.
44:57
You just said it. You said she changed because she
45:00
felt bad for Dimitri. Yeah, I that right there says it
45:05
all. She felt bad.
45:08
Yeah. She wasn't going to change at
45:10
all if it wasn't for him and casting.
45:13
Making the point even better. To.
45:16
Me, I think that's amazing. Like, OK, here, here's this
45:20
horrible mean person. This mean girl, she had
45:23
something done to her. So what is that called?
45:26
Like OK, they're trauma bonding or whatever.
45:30
Yeah. Like trauma bonding, they both
45:33
have been embarrassed. They both have been believed, I
45:36
guess you would say. I don't know if she has, but I,
45:39
I guess you would consider that she's been bullied.
45:41
She's been on that side of it. So she knows now, and she knows
45:47
what he's gone through. Yeah.
45:51
What? What is wrong with that?
45:53
I like this. I like how this is developing.
45:56
You're just making it sound even better.
45:58
Like you're she's, she is. For him, for him only.
46:04
It's not like she's like doing anything for anybody else.
46:07
It's just like changing for him. Like she bonded with him.
46:10
Oh, you, you were embarrassed in front of people.
46:13
Here, let me try to bond with you.
46:14
Let me tell you. And that's it.
46:17
She's not like I'm not. She hasn't talked to Sam.
46:22
She hasn't apologized to Sam. She hasn't apologized to Miguel.
46:25
OK, this. But she's starting.
46:27
She's starting. You have to start somewhere.
46:30
OK, You have to start somewhere. Am I wrong?
46:33
Yes, you have to start somewhere.
46:35
OK, there you go, baby's time. So moving along at Miyagi though
46:42
the class is practicing their cada but Daniel gives them a all
46:45
a hard time. Amanda tells the class to take 5
46:47
and drink some ice lemonade while she talks to Daniel who
46:50
informs them to take it easy on them.
46:51
It's their first week back. Daniel says they should notice
46:55
by now and blames himself for being in this position.
46:57
That one day they will find themselves all alone.
46:59
They're going to need these techniques to survive.
47:02
Amanda realizes this is about Robbie and tells Daniel that you
47:04
need to let him figure it out on his own.
47:06
If Robbie wants to come back, then the door is always open,
47:08
but if he doesn't, he's going to have to let him go.
47:12
Where have I heard that before? I don't know.
47:19
If you love, if you love something, let her go.
47:22
If it comes back, it's yours. Yeah.
47:24
If you love, if you love something, let it free.
47:27
If it comes back and sewers, yeah.
47:28
Or if you love something, let it go.
47:30
I mean, they did break up, Amanda, just say like, your
47:37
boyfriend broke up with you, your boyfriend broke up with
47:40
you. So like, you know, the door is
47:48
always open. Anyway, Daniel says he just
47:53
can't let him go. He has no one.
47:58
That's that's true. Because Daniel is the all
48:01
knowing person. That doesn't mean you have to
48:05
put him down just because you're going to say it.
48:08
He's the bully. And here we go again.
48:12
Like, what is that hero, Hero, hero complex, Hero God complex
48:20
where he needs to like save everyone.
48:23
He needs to save everyone from Johnny's cover Kai when he
48:26
didn't do anything. Just build a place where Miguel
48:31
wouldn't get hurt. Like, oh, you're going to build
48:35
cover Kai, and then I'm going to like, stop you.
48:40
Well, it's kind of like, you know, when you're the type of
48:42
person that feels you have to fix things.
48:44
OK, so I can kind of relate. I have to fix Robbie because he
48:48
had no one, he had his dad. He doesn't want his dad.
48:53
That's on him, to his side, not on Daniel to be like he had no
48:56
one. That OK, I agree with that kind
49:00
of. Hero God complex.
49:08
Anyway, next scenes at the park. The Eagle Fang Dojo.
49:11
The what? The class is brown.
49:15
The class is Roundhouse kicking frisbees off of Johnny's hand.
49:18
Nobody wants the tournament to go ahead more than Miguel, who
49:20
is struggling and training. He falls flat on his face when
49:23
he tries to Roundhouse kick the frisbee.
49:26
The whole class tries to help him up, but they are dismissed
49:29
for a 5 minute break by Johnny, who tells him to get some water.
49:32
He keeps Miguel and tells him that nobody's expecting him to
49:34
be his old self. Mitch Reed.
49:36
The text out loud and Johnny's upset that they canceled the
49:39
Yall Valley at Miyagido. A board member of the Yall
49:43
Valley Cairo tournament enters and informed Daniel that the
49:46
tournament has been canceled by the council so as not to foster
49:49
an environment of violence. Since Daniel is the two time
49:52
champ, he might be able to overturn their decision, even if
49:56
he thinks it might be for the best.
49:58
But Sam insists that Karate and Miyagido getting a bad
50:00
reputation isn't going to help anyone.
50:04
See, and now that they're right there, that's why he has that
50:07
hero God complex that that guy just gave it to him being the
50:12
all Valley champ for two years. You can probably come and change
50:16
everybody's mind. Just saying.
50:19
He's a he's a member of the board also and like he has
50:24
ruling over who can enter the All Valley.
50:27
See, that's why he has the Hero God complex as you call it.
50:33
Everyone's giving it to him. Yeah, at the apartment, Miguel
50:38
asking Johnny to go speak to the board and tell them what karate
50:40
means to Johnny and how he helped kids like him and taught
50:43
him how to stand up for himself. Johnny, however, believes that
50:47
the blessing disguise may be possibly agreeing with Daniel,
50:49
sinking the fights between the kids.
50:50
I've gone long enough, Johnny sinks.
50:53
Miguel isn't wasn't going to fight anymore.
50:56
But Miguel is intent on practicing karate, enjoying the
50:59
Yale Valley if they're where to happen.
51:01
He wouldn't let him compete in the tournament anyway, despite
51:03
it being for his own safety. Miguel turns his own word around
51:06
and says that he thought safety was for pussies.
51:09
They begin to argue and yell at each other when Carmen opens the
51:12
door and overhears the commotion.
51:14
Johnny yells at Miguel that he hurt himself by doing one kick.
51:16
What would he think would happen if he was in the real fight?
51:20
He already proved that he could win.
51:22
Miguel yells back and he wants to prove it again and walks away
51:24
from him. Johnny turns to look at Carmen
51:26
and they both stare at each other, feeling bad.
51:30
Miguel just wants to prove himself again, like he's he's
51:35
hurt, he's hurt, he's hurt from the fall from the balcony Fall.
51:42
Right. But he wants to.
51:43
I get it. He wants to prove that he is.
51:47
He can do it. He's back to him, his old self.
51:51
Yeah, and of course, Miguel's mom, Carmen, walks outside.
51:55
Like what's going on? Why are you guys yelling?
51:59
Why is he yelling? Oh, OK.
52:02
And he's, he feels bad because like, it's on him now.
52:06
He feels like he it's his fault that he's injured because he
52:10
pushed him and he pushed him and priest pushed him.
52:15
So he doesn't want him to get hurt at all.
52:21
This tournament obviously means a lot to many people for very
52:24
different reasons. The only person who seems
52:25
unconcerned is Robbie, who runs a tattori at the probation
52:28
office and clearly begins to ponder the idea that Sam will
52:31
eventually turn on him as the fitter Tory claims.
52:35
Tory claims she knows who she is, but tells Robbie is
52:38
pretending to be somebody he's not.
52:41
She walks away, but before she goes home, she tells Robbie to
52:44
check off stable in the section about his home life.
52:48
Nobody checks in on you anyway, and that's why she's the way she
52:53
is. That's sad.
52:59
This is the first time these two have interacted Well, besides
53:02
Glory of Love, the episode where you're like at the roller rink.
53:12
Oh yeah. All right, so this is like the
53:14
first time since then. So but it's actual like
53:18
interaction between each other where Robbie got up to fight her
53:24
and she thought like, chill, calm down, but no, sit down, go,
53:28
sit down. You're not doing what you're
53:30
supposed to do. During this scene behind the
53:41
clerk, if you notice the Microsoft logo on the computer
53:44
screen. And I just like kept, I just
53:48
like looked at it the entire time.
53:50
I was even paying attention to Robbie coming in.
53:53
I'm just staring at it. It just reminded me of the The
53:56
Office episode in the conference room where they're waiting for
53:58
it to hit the corner. And I'm sitting there like
54:01
waiting for it to hit the corner too.
54:03
And it's like, no, Oh well, OK, the scene's over.
54:07
And it was just me I guess. Yeah, I think it was just you.
54:14
Carmen goes to speak to Johnny at his apartment and he offers
54:17
her some expired oji think it's expired.
54:23
Well buddy, yes, expired. She like looks at it and like.
54:32
And while she confesses to blaming him for what happened to
54:34
Miguel, she realized now that it wasn't her fault and that Johnny
54:36
was just as hurt by what happened as she was.
54:39
She reaffirmed the idea that being a sensei is Johnny's
54:42
calling that he has to save the tournament since there are other
54:45
Miguel's out there who need him. Next scene is at the Northridge
54:52
City Council. Johnny shows up in Sister and
54:55
Daniel section who was with Sam and Amanda and are there to
54:57
appeal against the all valid cancellation.
55:00
Johnny asked Daniel if he's ready going to read from his
55:02
diary since he has a portfolio with him.
55:05
Daniel informed him he came prepared with notes and there's
55:07
nothing wrong with that. Johnny whispers he has a knee
55:10
note he shoots from the hit. The whole interaction is like
55:19
stop. Daniel turns to Amanda tells her
55:24
this is going to be a disaster. Councilperson Roberts hits
55:26
together in a foreigner when they will hear appeals for the
55:28
cancellation. DL Valley under 18 karate
55:30
tournament. She asked who would like to
55:32
speak first. Johnny and Daniel both get up
55:34
and walk down to speak up on the podium, but looks like priest
55:36
has beaten there. Who plays up in military history
55:40
and policy states that Miyaguigo started the violence and paints
55:43
a negative picture of the roof of rich and furious Daniel and
55:46
Amanda. Amanda had to be escorted out
55:49
for her interference. Johnny and Daniel team up
55:52
against crease with also a shutting match between the three
55:55
of them. Growth with their combativeness,
55:57
only making the case that the tournament shouldn't continue.
56:00
They all sit down next to each other.
56:02
Right behind Johnny is a cameo role is Daniel Machio who looked
56:06
just like his father and yes he was named after Daniel Luiso.
56:13
Also Amanda walking out of the All Valley with the sounds of
56:15
her heels hitting the floor and echoing is just her way of
56:18
saying she will not leave quietly.
56:20
She fuck. Her bad ass, I love it.
56:24
All I heard even going even in the back in the background when
56:30
you see like her going away, like echoing around was like,
56:36
yeah. And they had to wait until she
56:39
left her for them to speak, which is hilarious.
56:42
Even more like Nah, Nah, I'm going to, I'm going to keep
56:46
walking. I'm going to keep walking,
56:48
walking back up and down, pissed off walk.
56:52
Miguel arrives in the nick of time to erupt and Sam too, and
56:55
they both make an impassioned plea for a place they can
56:59
compete fairly and safely. Miguel recounts being bullied
57:02
and insists there will always be bullies.
57:04
Karate is about standing up to them.
57:06
They need to teach kids how to defend themselves.
57:09
Sam as and physically and mentally because the scars you
57:12
can't see are the ones that hurt the most.
57:15
Yes. Miguel continues and says that
57:18
karate is about discipline isn't strength and confidence, lessons
57:22
that you can use for the rest of your life.
57:24
He doesn't know where he would be today or what he would be
57:27
today if he wasn't for a sensei. The board is convinced and
57:31
conditional to everyone signing a disclaimer, the tournament is
57:34
back on. Scars you can't see are the ones
57:38
that hurt the most. Exactly.
57:42
Basically mental health and all that stuff are abused.
57:48
Yeah, there's some mental scars in there as well.
57:55
Definitely. Definitely, yeah.
57:57
Oh yeah, definitely. I mean, even what was it, the
58:00
last episode with Sam and her PTSD and her yeah, all that.
58:06
Yeah, she learned a lot from the last episode.
58:11
Yeah. All three sons.
58:13
They stand up from their seats. Chris looks at them and says
58:15
they all got what they wanted but be careful what they wish
58:18
for and walks away smirking. This leaves Johnny and Daniel
58:21
hugging their kids for a job well done.
58:24
But when Chris got up and started talking, did was I the
58:29
only one that just wanted to punch him?
58:33
Like seriously, I wish I could have.
58:37
I mean if it wasn't for Amanda dating like.
58:41
Oh, God, the restraints that Daniel and Johnny had, like I,
58:48
you could just see how pissed off Daniel was.
58:52
Like, you could just, you could see it.
58:53
And I'm just like, Oh my God, yes.
58:55
Oh, I just want to get up and be like, yeah, but like, oh,
59:02
council person, shut the hell. Up, I know, but like
59:05
Councilwoman, it's like council. Person I served my country.
59:10
Oh, thank you for your service. Oh, my God.
59:12
Come on. You're talking to like, yeah, I
59:16
was just that. That scene pissed me off.
59:18
Annoying, yes. Pissed me off in that scene,
59:22
acting all like innocent and yeah, I, I do this and bought
59:27
Yeah. And then I love when Johnny got
59:29
up and he's like, I was one of those kids.
59:31
I was one yeah, of your students.
59:34
And just that scene pissed me off.
59:37
But were we at war? Were we fighting each other?
59:40
No. Yeah, he didn't.
59:42
He didn't put, he doesn't put that in there that, you know,
59:44
that we're all at war and all his other bullshit.
59:48
She knows how to pray people and it's nice and crazy.
59:53
Exactly. I mean, would you really punch
59:59
an old man who served? Yes, him, yeah.
1:00:03
OK, Him, yes. Him, yes.
1:00:06
I mean, Amanda slapped him. I sure as heck would slap him.
1:00:12
Yes, absolutely. Wet slap.
1:00:14
Me too. No, I would not punch an old man
1:00:20
that served, but I would punch crease.
1:00:24
This is. An exception.
1:00:27
Like I know what slap him too. He deserves a slap.
1:00:32
He does, he does. He does deserve it.
1:00:35
Slap the smirk right off his face.
1:00:37
I hate he just cannot stand. Hate is that too, smirk I.
1:00:43
Know you are all about his. Like you can see his facial and
1:00:47
it's like, I just want to smack that right off his face.
1:00:52
High on their success, Sam and Miguel chatted at the Miyagido
1:00:54
Dojo, celebrating with cans of Raw Crown Cola.
1:00:58
Miguel goes up the place because he never been there.
1:01:02
Sam welcomes Miguel to train at Miyagi go anytime and Miguel
1:01:05
says he enjoys is then like park benches and regular boring rocks
1:01:08
while at Miyagi though it looks like breathing exercises.
1:01:12
Sam asked if it's not badass for him, which he says he his class
1:01:18
trains in cement trucks and junkyard.
1:01:21
Sam points to the floating platform in the pond, says she
1:01:23
trains there, and not everything in Miyagido wouldn't seem off.
1:01:32
Paint the fence. Pick up the rock.
1:01:39
She then playfully pushes his shoulder which he starts to
1:01:41
flirt back and ask if he's looking to take on the champ.
1:01:44
Sam walks towards him, reminding him that she flipped him with no
1:01:47
minimal effort. He has to do it again and they
1:01:50
both begin to spar, only to stop at the moment where they are
1:01:52
face to face and are interrupted by Robbie who got to them.
1:01:54
Where has he been? I know he just sneaks up on them
1:01:59
at the very end there. Just because you've been in
1:02:02
prison or I'm sorry, juvie, juvie.
1:02:07
He gets upset and realizes why that she stopped riding Sanchez.
1:02:10
She stopped riding because he never answers.
1:02:12
To which Robbie is cute is that it's hard to write back when
1:02:14
you're getting his face busted. Miguel said it's not her fault.
1:02:21
Robbie tells him to stay out of it and Miguel steps up and says
1:02:24
he's not going to standing up to him even though he's still
1:02:27
injured. Robbie attempts to attack
1:02:29
Miguel, not even apologizing to him that he threw him over the
1:02:33
balcony. I lost a lot of respect for
1:02:37
Robbie in the scene. I really did.
1:02:39
I know he was all whatever pissed off about Sam and Miguel,
1:02:44
but they weren't even doing anything.
1:02:46
Give me a break. Come on.
1:02:50
I I put you in a coma and you couldn't walk.
1:02:55
But here, let me, let me let's let's redo this again.
1:02:59
Let me see if I can, you know, do it again.
1:03:01
Put you in another coma. Instead of apologizing for the
1:03:04
first time I did it, you tell Robbie Put.
1:03:09
You in another Coba he's pulling he's.
1:03:11
Pulling a crease right now and I don't like that.
1:03:13
And he's not even like under Crease's spell yet.
1:03:18
And he is already acting like Crease.
1:03:21
Dom. Really.
1:03:24
Sham and Irene should prevent Robbie from starting another
1:03:26
fight, proving that these various robberies are far from
1:03:28
over a tournament or not. Carmen arrived at Johnny's
1:03:32
apartment and heard how it went, which to her meant caliente
1:03:36
spicy. I heard how it went.
1:03:45
They quickly they kissed quickly heading to the bedroom.
1:03:47
At the expense of television. That TV needs to get like a
1:03:52
proper. That's his third TV, right?
1:04:01
Oh my God. I think you should just be
1:04:06
without ATV. Just be without ATV because the
1:04:08
next one's probably going to get thrown out or kicked into.
1:04:13
Finally at the Cobra Kai Dojo, Creases hanging up the 1st 51st
1:04:17
Paul Valley Under 18 Karate Tournament poster on the wall.
1:04:20
The bell to the doors chimed and the camera pans in on Robbie at
1:04:24
the entrance while Creases out of focus and blurred.
1:04:28
Robbie asked for Sensei Crease. We see him focus while Robbie is
1:04:31
the now is the one now that is blurred and out of focus.
1:04:34
Crease smirks, and of course he doesn't have to say anything.
1:04:37
It just stares and see. That's smirk that we all want to
1:04:40
slap off his face. And have I have I not mentioned
1:04:45
a Star Wars reference on this one?
1:04:46
Because this is it right here. You have not.
1:04:49
This is it right here. Anakin coming to the what's his
1:04:55
name? Anakin coming to the dark side
1:04:58
basically and talking to Lord Palpatine.
1:05:08
What went through your head when Robbie showed up?
1:05:13
Were you expecting that? No, I wasn't expecting that at.
1:05:16
All what what did you think? Do you think I had anything?
1:05:21
What did I'm not going to put any thoughts in your head.
1:05:23
What? What made you what do you think
1:05:29
made him decide to go to crease? So Chris went to him.
1:05:36
At fir No. Yeah, Chris went.
1:05:40
Chris was the only one that visit him in.
1:05:42
Oh, yes, yes, yes, that's right. OK, so you think it's all that?
1:05:46
OK. Chris is the only one that cares
1:05:47
about me. He already got into his head.
1:05:49
Yeah. That's what you you don't think
1:05:51
it had anything to do with like Sam, Miguel, Tori, his dad,
1:05:57
Daniel, None of them. That added to it.
1:06:01
Because I think. OK.
1:06:03
That added to it. That added to it the beginning,
1:06:07
like these two are fighting over me again.
1:06:09
I can't deal with it. I haven't even come out again,
1:06:13
they're fighting. He goes to see Tori.
1:06:16
Tori's like putting in his head that she's cheating on you,
1:06:20
dude. Yeah.
1:06:21
And kind of we're the same basically.
1:06:24
You and I are the same. Person or whatever, yeah, Sam's
1:06:29
cheating on you or cheated. Sorry, Sam cheated on you and
1:06:34
we're the same person. Like that was my thought.
1:06:36
Like, OK, yeah, first crease, but then I thought Tori got into
1:06:40
his head a little bit. He looks at it for himself when
1:06:46
Sam and Miguel are like face to face.
1:06:58
Right you there. I'm here.
1:07:01
OK like he so he's right in his face and Sam and Miguel are in
1:07:10
face to face and he figures like they're about to kiss.
1:07:14
So that's what y'all been doing OK.
1:07:17
Yeah, he jumped to conclusions. Jumped to conclusions.
1:07:20
Ready to jump Miguel out of a second story balcony again.
1:07:28
And then like, you know what? I had no place to go.
1:07:31
So let me go talk to Chris. And he stepped foot into the the
1:07:36
lion's den. He stepped foot into the bad,
1:07:39
evil place. And I love how they focus was
1:07:42
the focus on Robbie coming in with crease blurred out.
1:07:48
But as soon as he comes in, it's like, let's say crease.
1:07:51
You see crease and Robbie's no longer a factor.
1:07:56
You see Crease knowing that he's going to win this fight because
1:07:59
he has Robbie now and now he has Johnny in his head like I have
1:08:06
your son. Yeah.
1:08:10
And the way that crease is now focused, he just doesn't.
1:08:14
He doesn't even have to turn around like welcome in my son or
1:08:17
anything. He just like looks up at the
1:08:19
screen, smiles, smirks. And we as the audience are like,
1:08:25
oh shit, what just happened? He's so evil.
1:08:30
Yeah. And that was, yeah, that was one
1:08:37
of the greatest episodes, one of the best episodes of the season
1:08:41
on that alone right there. Oh, because of his facial.
1:08:45
Because of what happened throughout the entire episode,
1:08:48
him going to the committee and telling them, you know, making
1:08:53
them feel like Miyagi and Eagle Fang are the bad guys here,
1:08:59
right? Right.
1:09:00
His win is that episode, like he even says like, I guess we all
1:09:05
got what we wanted. And this is exactly why I didn't
1:09:12
care for this episode. Oh, really?
1:09:14
Wow. Well.
1:09:15
I mean the whole, yeah. I just care for it.
1:09:19
It was just like. You happen to like Crease for
1:09:22
whatever reason. I do not like him so that's why
1:09:26
he got a win and he got Robbie and I don't like that.
1:09:31
So Bailey has Tori, Hawk and Robbie now.
1:09:34
I know like, I'm not liking this.
1:09:38
I don't like it. Somebody needs to teach him a
1:09:42
lesson. Badass scene, what'd you get?
1:09:49
You're probably going to completely disagree with me, but
1:09:52
the bad ass scene for me was when when Miguel came in to the
1:10:00
all all the the conference or whatever the the committee.
1:10:05
Yeah, when he walked in and his his whole speech and what he
1:10:12
said and he basically saved him from canceling the All Valley.
1:10:19
That whole scene right was hilarious.
1:10:21
That scene, I like the whole scene.
1:10:23
I, I don't like creased, but I liked, I, I liked how they
1:10:29
portrayed him in the scene. Even though I don't like him, I
1:10:33
like how they portrayed him. I like, I love how they I love
1:10:37
how they kicked Amanda out. I love how Danny or I keep
1:10:42
saying Danny, sorry Daniel and Johnny interacted and then how
1:10:46
Miguel and Sam came in and basically they're the ones that
1:10:52
that saved the whole all valley. So I really like that and I I
1:10:56
loved Miguel's speech. So yeah, but that was the badass
1:11:01
scene for me. It.
1:11:02
Was that's I agree. I'm not disagreeing.
1:11:04
I agree, Miguel's swooping in, pying and then piking sticking
1:11:13
his pangs on the on the committee and then Sam doing her
1:11:17
thing too. Like telling them like it
1:11:20
doesn't always do your scars doesn't always have to show
1:11:23
outside. It's inside also.
1:11:25
Yeah, I see. I love that what she said.
1:11:28
And then I also, it got to me when he said he wouldn't be
1:11:33
where he was at without his sensei.
1:11:35
And then he looked at Johnny and the look on Johnny's face was
1:11:41
priceless. I love that part.
1:11:43
That was just it was it was a heartwarming part right there.
1:11:46
It. Was I really enjoyed it?
1:11:50
Your final thoughts on this episode?
1:11:54
Well, I disagree with you. As in it's not one of my
1:11:57
favorites. It's all of my favorites, not
1:12:01
one of my top again because because of crease and I'm not a
1:12:06
crease fan. So but it was a it was a very
1:12:09
good. It was a good episode.
1:12:11
I I do like how they I like how they did everything.
1:12:15
I just don't and and it's it's good because for it's building
1:12:18
up for what's to come. So there there wasn't any action
1:12:23
in it, but it wasn't boring it. Wasn't.
1:12:28
Like, you know what episode 1 and episode 2 it was, it was, it
1:12:35
was well, it was well written. It was well written.
1:12:38
It was, it was. And I had still loved, I still
1:12:43
loved Yaz, Yaz's Part 2. So, but yeah, no action, but it
1:12:50
was well written and it was a it was a good, good storyline for
1:12:53
the episode for sure. Yes, I really enjoyed it.
1:12:57
It was very crease centric. So he won.
1:13:02
He at the very end, he he like he felt, it felt like he's
1:13:05
winning the war now, like he has all his soldiers in place.
1:13:11
If you're going by what how he thinks, he has his his first and
1:13:17
second. He just needs his top guy.
1:13:20
And that was Robbie. And now with Robbie in there,
1:13:25
and once Johnny finds out that Robbie in there, he's going to
1:13:28
be like, oh shit, I can't focus anymore.
1:13:31
So he's trying to get at everybody through them, through
1:13:35
fear, with Tori through Hot and Dimitri and now Robbie through
1:13:43
Miguel and Johnny. So I really like this, the whole
1:13:51
Yasmin and Dimitri saying yeah, fun.
1:13:53
OK, that's great. Yeah, I know you're being
1:13:57
sarcastic there. No, it was fun.
1:14:05
One of my favorite episodes so far.
1:14:09
So yeah, that was that was my final thought.
1:14:11
I really enjoyed this episode. I can't believe we're only two
1:14:14
episodes away and we're already going to be done with Season 3
1:14:16
to be honest. Yeah, yeah.
1:14:18
I'm like, oh, here we go. Let's end this already.
1:14:26
You ready to go? You ready to end it?
1:14:31
Yeah, it doesn't look like a yeah.
1:14:35
Yes, all right, yes. And with that, we have come to

1:14:52
don't? Think, oh, we don't have a
1:14:54
question. No, we don't have a question.
1:15:03

1:15:09

1:15:52
Yes, with one thing you were scared of doing and you
1:15:56
