- 0:56The creators of the show, written by Lynn Thomas and Joe
- 1:00Pirelli, said Nazis is the first day of school at West Valley
- 1:05High School. But tensions between the two
- 1:07dojos have not cooled with the end of summer and the rivalry

- 2:02that Sam did not come home. He hasn't seen her since the
- 2:05last episode when he got home from camp.
- 2:08But screw that. Can you make me some waffles
- 2:10from scratch like the ones you make for Sam?
- 2:14No, no, they're not waffles or pancakes.

- 2:41Heathen Jersey He's in Jersey. You know you don't give up, you
- 2:46don't turn your back on family. Daniel and Amanda It takes
- 2:51Daniel and Amanda roughly 5 minutes not just realize that
- 2:54Sam is missing, but to break into her laptop.
- 2:57Eventually Daniel determines he can trace Sam's iPhone.
- 3:01Over at Johnny's apartment, Sam is sleeping still while Robbie
- 3:04Robin just threw some boxes and finds old drawings and trophies
- 3:06of young Robbie. Meanwhile, in the kitchen,
- 3:09Johnny's making some fried Bologna for when Sam wakes up
- 3:12with a wicked hangover. Which leads us to the next
- 3:15question, and one we heard over the chat.
- 3:19Over the course of these last two seasons, we've seen fried
- 3:21Bologna and tortilla with ketchup and s'mores with peanut
- 3:23butter cups. I've even taste tested peanut
- 3:27butter toast with Pickles I love.
- 3:34Pickles. But no, I have not done that
- 3:36yet. You yeah, you need to do that
- 3:41because yeah. So the question is, what is your
- 3:45favorite weird food combination? Leave a comment down below or
- 3:52send us an e-mail at m3pnetwork@gmail.com and let us
- 3:55know what's your favorite weird food combination is so I can try
- 3:59it out. Yeah, I saw you.
- 4:03Oh really? You're not going to try it out.
- 4:06You're not. You're just going to let me do
- 4:08this by myself? No, of course not.
- 4:13You know I will. I'm there with you.
- 4:15I'll do it. OK, All right, we're.
- 4:18Both. So let us know what your
- 4:20favorite weird food combination is and we will try it out.
- 4:28Just let us know it can't be something disgusting, just make
- 4:32sure is a good one. Yeah, I was going to say not
- 4:36don't make something up, like have it be obviously something
- 4:40that you actually enjoy, not just throw out some weird crazy
- 4:45shit that me and him have to try just because that's not fair.
- 4:50Yes, please. We'll shout you out at the next
- 4:54in the next episode if we try it.
- 4:58So yeah, Johnny is making some fried baloney for Sam when he
- 5:00gets a notification that he needs to update his phone.
- 5:02So the fried baloney is for the hangover cure, of course, and a
- 5:09notification about the update on the phone when it's new.
- 5:13I get that all the time. Robbie shows up and thanks
- 5:18Johnny for letting them crash for the night.
- 5:19Johnny says not a problem but he feels still feels he will have
- 5:22to tell Daniel about this. Robbie pleads not to but he will
- 5:26take the blame for it and say he got drunk and tell Sam to bring
- 5:29him there. Daniel gets in his car to follow
- 5:32the coordinates which leads him to Johnny's apartment.
- 5:34Daniel knocks on Johnny's door asking if Sam is there.
- 5:39John confirms she is but refuses to let him in, sensing Daniel's
- 5:42mood and he shuts the door in Daniel's face.
- 5:44Daniel breaks down the door and him and Johnny immediately began
- 5:47to fight, showing flashbacks of the ending of Karate Kid during
- 5:50the All Valley Tournament finals.
- 5:53Johnny kicks Daniel into the wall, which knocks the TV screen
- 5:56off and onto his head. Daniel asks if Johnny wants to
- 5:59finish this, to which they square off but are backed off by
- 6:03Sam and Robbie. Daniel doesn't trust Robbie
- 6:05anymore and walks them out with him.
- 6:07Before he leaves, it takes one look at Johnny, who's also ready
- 6:09but decides to walk away or until next time, closing the
- 6:13door behind them and the Cobra Kai logo appearing in yellow
- 6:17letters. That was a long cold open, by
- 6:20the way. Yeah.
- 6:22And it was, Yeah, I bet that I, I was.
- 6:29I, I just, I, I don't have words for that opening right now.
- 6:32Like, Oh my gosh, yeah. We were ready.
- 6:36We. Need that fight between not
- 6:39what? And we were ready for that
- 6:41fight. And then like Nope, not
- 6:42happening. Yeah, and I love how they use
- 6:46those. They put the flashbacks in there
- 6:49from yes, yes, I love that. Yes, love it.
- 6:55Next scene starts off with a callback to Karate Kid.
- 6:57Bananarama is cruel summer. Bananarama pancakes, Bananarama
- 7:05waffles Bananarama cruel summer. Of course, while we see that
- 7:12it's the first day of school after the summer break, Miguel
- 7:15is a straw. He can't get a hold of Tori and
- 7:16not even a text to Aisha who is also worried, especially on the
- 7:20first day of school. In the front of the school,
- 7:25Daniel pulls up to his car and has taken Sam's car away.
- 7:27They argue a bit, telling Sam she should have come to him and
- 7:30Amanda, but not not that guy. Especially after last night.
- 7:36Don't call that guy. I have apologies again.
- 7:41Gets out of Daniel's car without saying a goodbye, still unhappy
- 7:43with Daniel. Not long after Johnny drops
- 7:46Robbie off at school and they seem to be on good terms.
- 7:48He gives Robbie a school bag full of pencils and some paper
- 7:52but couldn't find a Trapper Keeper.
- 7:57I laughed because I had a Trapper Keeper.
- 8:01Of course he did. Of course he did.
- 8:05Robbie said yes. Robbie says he doesn't know what
- 8:09that is. Johnny says he had one with a
- 8:11fighter jet. It was so awesome.
- 8:13Possibly a nod to Iron Ego fighter jet.
- 8:17Trapper Keepers were pulled off the market in 2002 and I can
- 8:20still remember the Velcro and mine had the basic red car.
- 8:26What did you just have? Mine is.
- 8:28Purple. It's pretty purple.
- 8:30Yeah, purple. And I remember had a white
- 8:31stripe. It was purple.
- 8:33And yes, I can remember that. I can hear the sound of the
- 8:35Velcro. Sound of the Velcro.
- 8:39Yes. It's like you don't is sound of
- 8:43a Velcro is the same as the dial up for the Internet.
- 8:48Yes, pretty much. Those are things you remember
- 8:51from the 80s and 90s is like, And then I was like, oh God.
- 8:57Or or the you've got mail. You've got mail, AOL.
- 9:03Ah, wish I had my soundboard next time.
- 9:11What were your trapper keepers? Did you guys have trapper
- 9:14keepers also? Let us know below in the
- 9:17comments. What kind were they?
- 9:20What were they? What did you have is like and
- 9:23and I believe they're like another market, another brand of
- 9:27trapper keepers competing against the trapper keeper me
- 9:31type. And that's why like teachers
- 9:34would be like, OK, you can't have that here.
- 9:36And they disband the Trapper Keepers at school.
- 9:39And This is why I like, they stopped selling them and like
- 9:43they were pulled off the market in 2002.
- 9:45But imagine that 2000s people have Trapper Keepers also like
- 9:49so it's eighties, 90s and 2000s. So it was rolling into the
- 9:542000s. Rolling in there and then like
- 9:572002, it's like, all right, you're we're done.
- 10:00Meat is all like I, we, we were good.
- 10:04It was great while it lasted. Yeah, I think I got my first
- 10:08Trapper Keeper in 1986 actually say something.
- 10:15I was around the 90s. I I all I can remember are a
- 10:19bunch of here we go again with the garbage pail kids stuff, but
- 10:24a bunch of garbage pails stickers on some of these
- 10:27people. I swear like the 90s and the
- 10:32California were just like all basic.
- 10:35The whole thing was basic. Red car, flashy Trapper keeper
- 10:41with pictures of their favorite actors.
- 10:46The stickers of the Garbage Pail Kids.
- 10:50How about how about a lunch box? Did you have a lunch box?
- 10:54I had a lunch box tender cat. What?
- 10:56What kind of lunch box did you have?
- 10:59Thundercats. Of course it was Thundercats.
- 11:03Of course it was Thundercats. Of course it was.
- 11:08All right, so not only the question being that what was
- 11:11your, did you have a Trapper Keeper?
- 11:13Did you also have the lunch box? And what kind of lunch box was
- 11:16it and what kind of Trapper Keeper was it?

- 11:54Yeah. Wow.
- 11:56OK, all right, back to the show. Judgement in your voice there.
- 12:06No judgement at all. I was like, I figure like
- 12:08everybody's all into Haim, not the other guy.
- 12:12I am into Haim. That's why I said Haim.
- 12:14Are you talking about Feldman? Corey Feldman.
- 12:16Yeah, not Feldman. Nobody's into Feldman at all.
- 12:18Everybody. Was in no yes, Corey.
- 12:23Like, I've seen more Corey Haim movies than I've ever seen
- 12:26Feldman. Movies.
- 12:29Are there a package deal? They're always together though.
- 12:32I know, but there was a time when he wasn't like, so I was
- 12:38like, So what happens if Corey Haim went solo?
- 12:41Corey Haim became a star. Feldman was just like, let me go
- 12:45hang out with Michael Jackson. Oh my God.
- 12:52Back to the show before we get canceled.
- 12:57Back to the show. Oh, Johnny asked Robbie if he's
- 13:00OK. Robbie's worried about Samuel
- 13:02Russo's. He claimed that Miyagi don't
- 13:04help him out a lot, and maybe him and Daniel can learn a thing
- 13:06or two from each other. Foreshadowing was to come later
- 13:10on, I'm not telling you what. Meanwhile, Johnny's getting a
- 13:13call from his other son, but he turns the phone off.
- 13:16I'm saying you know it's Miguel. This is like his other son is
- 13:20Miguel. He turns to Robbie and tells him
- 13:22he better get to school. Robbie sings him for driving him
- 13:25in the school hallway. Miguel is again trying to reach
- 13:28Johnny but gets the voice message but walks past the
- 13:31hallway where Sam is putting her books in.
- 13:33Robbie comes from around the corner and checks in on Sam who
- 13:35is still moping around what she does.
- 13:37She should have gone home and been honest with her parents.
- 13:40Robbie says she's right. No more lying.
- 13:42So he come clean about putting the Medal of Honor in the
- 13:45backyard so someone could find it because he didn't want me out
- 13:48to earn any points with her and that he felt insecure.
- 13:54He does this clean cut dialogue of boy does it feel better to
- 13:58get off his chest. And it felt so corny.
- 14:02How was it like all season long? He's over here like holier than
- 14:08thou and like whatever, Miguel, shut up.
- 14:13And then here we go on the last fucking episode and he's all
- 14:16like, I feel like I have to come clean with you.
- 14:21I want to tell you the whole truth of what happened in the
- 14:23entire season. What?

- 14:32misrepresented him here on this episode when the like, it should
- 14:37have just like he yeah, he came clean.
- 14:40But like, there was a there could have been a better way to

- 14:52Sam. Not only that, Sam realizes that
- 15:02she should tell Robbie what happened last night.

- 15:06Robbie says he can't be late on his first day.
- 15:11Wink wink kisses Sam and leaves against see again, quarantine

- 16:23First hour, yes, I brought my girlfriend to my dad's house who

- 16:38Next scene, Alice played by Natasha, Tina, Lou gets on the
- 16:42PA system and welcomes everyone back to the new school year.
- 16:46Hawk was in a class with Miguel. Congratulations on kissing Sam.
- 16:49And Miguel says he's with Tori and he shouldn't have done that.
- 16:52And Hawk asked, why limit yourself to one chick?
- 16:55But he planned. And yet he plans on having a
- 16:58full rotation by midterms. A kid comes up to Hawk and tells
- 17:04him that when he was 13, he too wet the bed.
- 17:07Hawk knocks his book off and Miguel wonders what that was
- 17:10about, but Hawk just disregards it, forgot Miguel wasn't around
- 17:13for that. He's out.
- 17:15He was outside with Sam. Like looking for Sam, kissing
- 17:19Sam. Yeah, Robbie's inside like, Oh
- 17:26yeah, hey, you have to get to me first.
- 17:32Why wasn't he looking for his girlfriend?
- 17:36Who Miguel? Robbie, Robbie, he'd rather be
- 17:41fighting. All right, Alice Still, the PA
- 17:45says everyone can still purchase tickets for the School Musical
- 17:48when will be which will be a production of Grease.
- 17:51And then we get into Principal Lopez office, who is played by
- 17:53Miguel Jose Miguel Vasquez, who played Jose on three episodes of
- 17:57season nine of The Walking Dead. Corporal Abel Gomez on the four
- 18:00episodes deliverer and in 2021 played Ross Agent on Marvel's
- 18:04Black Widow movie. Principal Lopez interviewing
- 18:07Stingray about a security guard opening, which Stingray doesn't
- 18:10have any experience in, but he does claim to have won the black
- 18:12VS red challenge Karate Creek, which he pulls out the red
- 18:16bandana that he took from Miguel, a big deal in the karate
- 18:20community. He continues to say that he's
- 18:23going to say very pleased with his progress and pretty soon we
- 18:26will be seeing the yellow belt around his midsection.
- 18:31He looks around the room and tells the principal that he has
- 18:33a very nice set but wonderful about the setup in the teacher's
- 18:38lounge. Like he no, he doesn't have job,
- 18:41but hey, how's the teacher's lounge looking does?
- 18:46He ask like what is he interviewing for security?
- 18:51Is that what it is? Yeah, what?
- 18:54Crying out loud. Security guard not not looking
- 18:57for a teacher's spot or. That's why I was like, why is
- 19:01he? Why let me yourself to custodian
- 19:05when you can do like security work?
- 19:08He has the experience of karate. Oh yes, that's true.
- 19:13That is true. Like but you don't have any more
- 19:15other experiences? Like Nope, I just know karate.
- 19:19That's all you need to be a security guard.
- 19:21Exactly. Finally we get to the last
- 19:25announcement from Alice in the PA room about the academic year
- 19:28while zooming through the other students homeroom and what
- 19:30they're doing. Miguel's with Hawk, Robbie's in
- 19:32computer class and Sam who's reading The Outsiders, a classic
- 19:35book, which also starts one of her favorite actors, Patrick
- 19:38Swayze, and some guy that looks like her dad who plays him?
- 19:49Ralph Macho plays him. Is Ralph Macho an actor in this,
- 19:53in the Miyagi verse, Miyagi universe?
- 19:56Or is there like another guy playing Ralph Macho's part and
- 20:05that same guy plays him in The Karate Kid and like Ralph or
- 20:10Daniel's all like, yeah, that movie's a great movie or doesn't
- 20:18even exist at all. Maybe he doesn't.
- 20:20I don't know. Finally, Alice gets interrupted
- 20:22by Tori who hijacks the school PA system, announces she's going
- 20:25to hunt Sam down after she kissed Miguel.
- 20:28I know what you did. I'm coming for you bitch, after.
- 20:33That scene. Here we go.
- 20:37The entire episode is top notch. After Tori threatened Sam, the
- 20:43bell rings and Sam and Tori both head towards each other at a
- 20:46hallway separately and out of their classes, Miguel and Robbie
- 20:50run towards where they might be at.
- 20:54I love, I love how they like left right away.
- 20:57They're like all right let's time to go.
- 20:59Time to haul ass, time to run over there where they might be
- 21:03at. And yet Hawk shows up there
- 21:06first. Right.
- 21:09Like what? And well, it hasn't quite
- 21:13happened yet, but it's coming. And it's Fox face.
- 21:19Like I swear he looks like he's, I don't know, so evil in this
- 21:26episode. And like it starts.
- 21:29It starts in just a moment, like where, where you're coming, it
- 21:32starts. The fight.
- 21:34If you notice. The fight starts at 12 minute
- 21:36mark, Sam and Tori circling each other while other students from
- 21:40Cobra Kai and Yaguito surround them.
- 21:42Robbie shows up behind Tori and Hawk shows up behind Sam.
- 21:46Tori says that she saw what she did at the party, she kissed
- 21:49Miguel, which leaves Robbie distraught at the whole
- 21:52situation. What?
- 21:55I don't have to be a goody such a goody goody.
- 21:58And then this happens like, oh, I.
- 22:00Know she was going to turn over a new leaf.
- 22:03Back to Evil Robbie. It only took 12 minutes.
- 22:06It only took. 12 minutes. It's fault though.
- 22:13It was the reason he felt insecure.
- 22:17Tori starts to physically fight. Sam kicks her away a few feet,
- 22:20but Hawk holds on to Sam and pushes her back into the fight.
- 22:23As the two girls face off in the hall, Robbie tries to stop the
- 22:26fight by pulling Tori away from Sam.
- 22:29Tori tries to attack Robbie. He's.
- 22:31Still being good, like he's still doing a good thing.
- 22:34That's all he was doing was like keeping them from fighting.
- 22:38Yes, that's true. Tori tries to attack Robbie but
- 22:41he holds her and plays against a batch of lockers.
- 22:45At that moment Miguel arrived at the scene even though Hawk got
- 22:48there before him. Told you it witnessed Robbie
- 22:52holding on to Tori's neck. Doug who is one of the members
- 22:57of Cobra Kai and was orange shirt guy at the mall
- 23:00surrounding Dmitry tells Robbie to let Tori go but Robbie kicks
- 23:04dog away. Miguel attacks Robbie after
- 23:08mistakenly believing he is attacking Tori.
- 23:10Chris says they have to do something Dmitry says is a good
- 23:13idea and runs to tell a teacher we get an all out karate bra or
- 23:18the riot depending on who you talk to.
- 23:20Starting with Hawks saying that it is on everyone that was
- 23:24staring at each other in the last episode get into it
- 23:26including Christmas and Mitch as well as Nate and Bert having a
- 23:29little mini kid fight. They those punches weren't even
- 23:33hurting at all. What are you doing?
- 23:40Like Nate and Bert, they're just like are.
- 23:43You saying that their fight didn't count?
- 23:46Their fight didn't count. Come on, it's like Maidenberg
- 23:53would just like attacking each other with pillows.
- 23:59So they were having a pillow fights is what you're saying?
- 24:03They didn't hit, they didn't like, they didn't hurt.
- 24:05They're having a pillow fight yet?
- 24:06So like 2 little people fighting and they've they're little.
- 24:11They're tiny, too, like the two tiniest high schoolers I've ever
- 24:14seen. I didn't I I don't even know why
- 24:20they were there. Like they're too small for high
- 24:23school. They're probably freshmen,
- 24:25they're probably 9th grade at the moment, like, right.
- 24:27There obviously they have to be freshmen 'cause they are tiny.
- 24:32Suddenly, Season 3, they're like, oh, we're high school
- 24:35seniors now 'cause we're we're. Seniors.
- 24:37Yeah, you got a growth spurt. Aisha tried to stop the fight,
- 24:46but she was pushed back by a Miyagido student and ultimately
- 24:49punched him back. It wasn't a Miyagido student.
- 24:51It was a corporate high student. Because I saw this kid at the
- 24:54very end of the episode in that corporate high scene.
- 24:57He was back there. It's the same guy.
- 25:02And I'm like, this guy probably doesn't know that Aisha was
- 25:05trying to stop the fight or was trying to like, you know, be
- 25:13good about this. And then this dude's all like,
- 25:17don't, don't be coming after Tori.
- 25:19I got you And so. I just say there was so much
- 25:23lack of communication in this episode, this particular
- 25:26episode, like so much misunderstanding.
- 25:30If they would have all just listened, none of this would
- 25:34have happened. Starting with Daniel, starting
- 25:36with Daniel in the beginning of the episode, and then it just
- 25:40keeps going. I keep I kept on going and.
- 25:44Nobody returned to anyone. And nobody did.
- 25:46At the 1346 mark we get a 2 minute long shot and one take
- 25:51and it starts off when Moon attempted to stop the fight by
- 25:54asking if they can just get along.
- 25:57No Moon. Again, not everything can be
- 26:00unicorns and. Rainbows.
- 26:04She's already a rainbow. She's, she's already there.
- 26:09She's she's, that's the. Last one though.
- 26:13She's a she's in the rainbow community.
- 26:16We love her for that, but still. Doug threw a Miyagido student
- 26:21into a locker but was kicked away by the student.
- 26:23Doug doesn't know how to fight. What the hell Doug?
- 26:26Like every time I see you, he gets hit his ass, kicked
- 26:32everyone. I'm going to keep a lookout on
- 26:33Doug from now on. Everyone continues to fight each
- 26:36other, slamming people in the lockers and throwing others on
- 26:38the floor. The principal finally comes out
- 26:40of his office to call security. But Raymond, who was the nicest
- 26:42job, a job as a security guard, viciously attacked several
- 26:45Biaguido students. OK, so how long did it take for
- 26:48the fight to show up? Like 12 minute mark to like 2
- 26:52minutes, 345 minutes. And then principal finally comes
- 26:56out and he was talking. There's no other teachers in the
- 27:02in the hallway. Right.
- 27:04No teachers, no nothing. They're just letting us all
- 27:07happen. I've only counted, I've only
- 27:10counted three teachers around four teachers.
- 27:12One of them was in the in the computer at the computers when
- 27:17Tori said her saying, and she's like, Oh my goodness, that would
- 27:20that girl's voice. Oh my gosh, the principal and
- 27:26two other teachers later on. So he come and finally comes out
- 27:31and Raymond's all like, don't worry, principal, I got this.
- 27:34And he starts freaking beating up to me.
- 27:37Gotta, you know, students high fiving hawk.
- 27:39He starts doing some crazy ass stunts.
- 27:46Of course, he's wearing some tight jeans.
- 27:49So he's probably like, all right, put putting his his his
- 27:54legs like stretching and stuff. He's putting his stuff up there
- 27:58and it's like, all right. And then he goes down and hit
- 28:01someone in the freaking knee. So Ray Raymond Stingray is
- 28:08having fun here. Like, but Stingray is an adult
- 28:11fighting little kids. Right.
- 28:18I'm like, you're gonna be kidding.
- 28:20How many? Like felonies or whatever he's
- 28:23committing here? Or maybe not felonies, but yeah.
- 28:26He didn't get the job. He's not a security guard, but
- 28:28he's visually, he's viciously attacking other students.
- 28:33Kids, he's attacking kids. He's attacking children,
- 28:37basically. I mean, I, but I wanted to say I
- 28:40thought it was really cool. OK, it's not cool that he was
- 28:43attacking kids, but he I was like, hell yeah.
- 28:47He finally like has his moment and I'm like, where the hell did
- 28:50he learn these moves? Because he wasn't even like in,
- 28:55he wasn't even in there anywhere.
- 28:58They like made him leave and and told him to go away and he
- 29:03jumped out of leaves and that was it.
- 29:05Like where did he learn all these moves at?
- 29:08That's what I want to know. I have a theory and it's about
- 29:11the end of the episode. So yeah, it's a very maybe it's
- 29:16a good theory, I don't know. We'll see.
- 29:21The fight between the two. Dozens moved to the front part
- 29:23of the school as more high school students come to watch
- 29:26the fight for amusement. Oh yeah, they have their phones
- 29:29out. Everybody's watching the fight.
- 29:31When a member of school staff intervened to break it up, Doug
- 29:33violently elbowed him and flipped him to the ground just
- 29:38as Dmitry brought Mr. Palmer, hoping that he could help end
- 29:41the fight. So that's two more right there.
- 29:43One got taken down. The other one is Mr. Palmer, who
- 29:45said I don't even get paid enough for this and leaves like
- 29:51no. My God, what kind of school is
- 29:56this? Two more teachers, so I only
- 29:59counted four or five. Doug would have gone to jail for
- 30:03hitting a teacher. Prison after, Yeah, after
- 30:08beating several Miyagi. Those students.
- 30:10Hot goes after Dimitri who runs away to hide back over to Miguel
- 30:16and Robbie. Miguel gets the upper hand on
- 30:18Robbie, but after noticing Sam and Tori still fighting, he lets
- 30:20Doug and Mikey fight Robbie and he himself then runs up to stop
- 30:24Sam's and Tori's fight. Mikey's the other guy that was
- 30:27trying to like scare Dmitri at the mall in the comic book
- 30:31section. And So what was it?
- 30:33The orange shirt And then the other guy right next to him,
- 30:36that's who Mikey was. So like, hey, that's Doug and
- 30:41that's Mikey. Doug is all over the place here.
- 30:45Like it's like, it's like he's all over the school attacking
- 30:50people and everything. And then I don't see him later
- 30:53on. But yeah, this happens.
- 30:56Chris fights Mitch in one of the hallways.
- 30:58Chris dominates the fight until Mitch kicks for Chris in the
- 31:01face, knocking him down to the floor.
- 31:03After taunting Chris that he should have stayed in Cobra Kai,
- 31:06Mitch gets knocked out by a book to the face by Chris winning.
- 31:12Miguel is rejected when he tries to stop Tori, she kicks and hits
- 31:15Miguel away in anger. And he had kissed because he
- 31:18kissed bro Sam. Robbie defeats Doug and Mikey
- 31:22easily and runs to the spot where Miguel, Tori and Sam are
- 31:24where he and Miguel resume their fight.
- 31:26It's upstairs now. Burt successfully breaks
- 31:30Miyagido student Nathaniel's glasses, but Nathan then tackles
- 31:34Burt and punches him several times, only for the security
- 31:38guard to pick both of them up and take them potentially to the
- 31:40principal's office. He has one of them over his
- 31:42shoulder and the other one grabbing him by his shirt.
- 31:47And that's the 6th adult that I've seen there.
- 31:51I don't see anybody else. Like I still don't see any.
- 31:57Like how many teachers supposed to be in a school like 20-30
- 32:00forty? I only like 6 of them upstairs.
- 32:07Tori has the upper hand over Sam for most of their fight, but
- 32:10once Sam starts to get the upper hand, Tori starts fighting more
- 32:13viciously. By using her spike bracelet to
- 32:15harm Sam, Tori is able to injure Sam's risk with the bracelet.
- 32:19Just as she is about to kill Sam with the bracelet and says no
- 32:22mercy, Sam blocks and then kicks her down over the stairs,
- 32:25winning in the process. She lies there in pain for the
- 32:28rest of the fight. That felt felt like all right.
- 32:34I did that to her. Yeah, now let's see what happens
- 32:38upstairs. Like what?
- 32:42Hawk finally catches up the Dimitri in front of the school
- 32:45by a large glass trophy case and Hawk begins to fight him.
- 32:48However, Dimitri is able to use his lesson from Yagido to canner
- 32:51all of Hawk's attacks. Dimitri didn't display his
- 32:54offense by kicking Hawk into a trophy case and wins, though he
- 32:57does apologize thereafter. Jacob Bertrand, who plays Hawks,
- 33:01says that he mostly did all his stunts and moves throughout the
- 33:04season, but when it came down to the trophy casing, his mom put a
- 33:07stop to it and told John Hurwitz that her boy will not be getting
- 33:10hurt doing that. So a stunt double was used for
- 33:13this scene is why you see him face down instead of up.
- 33:17You don't see Hawks face Miguel and Robbie the last two
- 33:23fighting. Their fight seems to be even,
- 33:25but when Miguel tells Robbie that Sam loves him more and
- 33:28angry, Robbie aggressively attacks Miguel and starts to get
- 33:31the upper hand. Miguel however recovers and
- 33:34beats Robbie a second time by locking his arm, which Robbie is
- 33:38unable to break out of. As instructed by his sons, say,
- 33:42Miguel becomes the bigger man and shows mercy and even
- 33:45apologizes. Then a furious Robbie kicks him
- 33:48with a cheap shot, inadvertently sending him over a balcony.
- 33:53Slow motion left landing on the stairs.
- 33:58Which? Renters him unconscious.
- 34:00Fucking slow motion. Oh my God, this part.
- 34:06However, horrified at what he has done, Robbie runs away while
- 34:09Sam, Hawk and a cop go to an unconscious Miguel.
- 34:13All right, so this part right here.
- 34:20So for the 10 episodes that I watch in the last seven days at
- 34:26work, I get to this episode, and when you see Miguel doing the
- 34:33whole thing that he's going down and he's like, yeah, that's the
- 34:38thumbnail that I see. Really.
- 34:41I'm like, what? So I click on it and it starts
- 34:46right there. And I'm like, that's not even
- 34:47it. That's not even the episode.
- 34:49I didn't read. I didn't even look.
- 34:51I didn't even look at the freaking time stamp.
- 34:53I just saw that. And it's like, what?
- 34:56And then I see that happening and I'm just like, no.
- 34:59And then it's like you hit a crack and I'm like, Oh my God.
- 35:02And everybody's all like, are you OK?
- 35:03It's like, no, I'm not OK. No, no.
- 35:08I'm not OK, That's the scene that I see and I'm just like
- 35:12what the hell? And then I'm looking around for
- 35:14the actual episode and there it is.
- 35:16Like I pay for it. Why wasn't I notified instead of
- 35:19getting like I first thing I see on on YouTube when I see it,
- 35:22it's just and that thumbnail and I'm like, I hate you guys.
- 35:29This is why I'm like from now on, I'm staying away from the
- 35:33Internet when something like this comes on.
- 35:35Unfortunately, I couldn't do that for season 6 so and that
- 35:44was the craziest thing ever on this show is just him doing the
- 35:49whole slow motion down the stair of flying and then he falls and
- 35:54he and it's like a sudden moves. Oh my God.
- 35:58And like what that was? Crazy.
- 36:03Yeah. And I honestly, I was like, Oh
- 36:06my God, he's Yeah, I will. He could be good.
- 36:10Yes, yes, that right there. I was like in shock.
- 36:14I was like freaking out. I was just all kinds of emotions
- 36:19with that scene. Oh my God.
- 36:21Right. Yes, many emotions.
- 36:24So many and I'm just sitting there like, what the hell?
- 36:29The show coming back, We can't be that.
- 36:31That's what I was wondering. I'm like, it's going to end.
- 36:35It's going to be, it's going to end.
- 36:37It's, it's it what's happening. That's what I want to say.
- 36:40I'm like, Oh my gosh, how? Yeah, I was just.
- 36:48Next thing is a montage of the parents finding out about the
- 36:50fight. Amanda runs into Daniel's karate
- 36:52room and to tell the bad news. Johnny is fixing his TV when he
- 36:56hears Carmen scream. At the hospital we see Miguel on
- 37:00the LR table getting X-rayed on an entire body.
- 37:03Carmen blames Johnny and tells him she never wants to see him
- 37:05again and Johnny naturally also blames himself as do many of the
- 37:09remaining members of the Cobra Kai.
- 37:11If Miguel has shown had not shown mercy, he would not be
- 37:15lying unconscious in the hospital bed.
- 37:17Sam has serious injuries and is devastated over what happened.
- 37:20Daniel promises to make Cobra Kai pay for what happened as
- 37:23Tori started the fight, but with her daughter having been badly
- 37:25hurt. Get the scratch.
- 37:29Just put a scratch. Come on, stop it.
- 37:33Miguel took the entire thing. Don't make this about your
- 37:36daughter, please. She shouldn't be kissing other
- 37:39boys besides Robbie. Come on.
- 37:45So, so we're blaming this on Sam, are we?
- 37:49Is, is that what you're doing? Is that what you're saying here?
- 37:52Nobody told you to get drunk. Nobody told you to get drunk.
- 37:57Nobody told her to get drunk and kiss Miguel.
- 37:59Nobody told her to get drunk and fade fight Tori.
- 38:04Actually, I believe Tori. I blame Tori.
- 38:09Tori challenged her. Tori got her drunk.
- 38:12Tori challenged her. Sam should have been like Nope,
- 38:16I don't, I don't drink, sorry of.
- 38:18Course she's not going to do that.
- 38:21Of course not. Of course she's badly hurt from
- 38:27a scratch on her wrist. Whatever.
- 38:31I love how they said badly hurt when friggin Miguel is lying
- 38:36unconscious on a hospital bed. Right.
- 38:39With possible broken back and everything.
- 38:41And here is his daughter. You know, like 3 stitches.
- 38:50It was more than that. I'm just saying it was more than
- 38:52that. Amanda demands that Daniel gives
- 38:54up karate and Miyagito. Daniel reluctantly agrees, and
- 38:56Amanda is determined to ensure Tori is expelled from West
- 38:59Valley High School for good. What's her face?
- 39:03Sam's all like. I don't care about that.
- 39:05I care about Miguel. See, she's the only one that
- 39:08seems to care. I'm just kidding.
- 39:13Johnny checks in on Miguel outside of his room but he
- 39:15checks his phone to listen to Miguel's voice message in which
- 39:17he wants to meet Johnny after school at the Dojo to talk about
- 39:21girl problems. Johnny gets on a little better
- 39:26as he's about to leave the hospital but Daniel walks in and
- 39:28they have this 32nd long and comfortable silence as both
- 39:31parents are hurt. Daniel has his daughter got
- 39:35injured and Johnny died. Both of his sons spot and one of
- 39:39them almost go the other like both of my kids.
- 39:45When Johnny returns to the Dojo and finds several of his
- 39:47students which include Hawk, Tori, Stingray, Mitch, Big Red,
- 39:50Edwin, and then when being taught by Creed who tells Johnny
- 39:55somebody need to remind them what it takes to win.
- 39:58Notice how Doug is no longer there.
- 40:04He's he beat. The search is looking for him.
- 40:08The police is searching for him again.
- 40:11He like beat up a teacher. Like if we see him on season
- 40:17three, like he got out real quick.
- 40:20Also, the other guy that was that pushed Aisha away is there
- 40:26but not Aisha. So I was like, oh shit, so
- 40:33where's Aisha? Aisha said.
- 40:39The actress says that she was not invited back to season
- 40:44three. However, she does have yeah,
- 40:47they didn't have anything for her for season 3, didn't know
- 40:50what to do with her, her character.
- 40:54So this is her last time that she's on the show.
- 40:57She'll be on Season 3 as a cameo, but not in the credits.
- 41:03Yeah, I was going to say no, she she was, she was on there.
- 41:05But yeah, she's not on there. Cameo.
- 41:09Yeah, right. Johnny stepped forward to
- 41:12confront Crease, but all the students step up as well and get
- 41:14in front of their son. Say Crease reveals that he has
- 41:17worked out a deal with the landlord and renewed the
- 41:20building's lease in his name when Johnny was away, as Johnny
- 41:23had only been on a series of handshake deals.
- 41:27Johnny gets upset with the students, but Hawk openly blames
- 41:30Johnny that Miguel's in the hospital because of him.
- 41:32He showed mercy to the enemy because of him, and if Miguel
- 41:35dies, that's on him. Kris then explains that because
- 41:38he founded Cobra Kai, it belongs to him and it always has and it
- 41:41always will. Kris also explains that he will
- 41:43never let his students lose, even if they have to learn it
- 41:46the hard way. Kris also says that one of these
- 41:49days, Johnny will thank him for this.
- 41:51Johnny then realized that reopening Cobra Kai was nothing
- 41:54more than a massive mistake. Johnny then barely says to his
- 41:58former son say that if he wants Cobra Kai he can have it.
- 42:00Since Johnny's efforts have obviously caused more harm than
- 42:03good. Johnny didn't leave the anger as
- 42:05Chris continues to train the students.
- 42:08So here's my theory. After Johnny told Chris to leave
- 42:17and because they're doing this out in the back of the the the
- 42:23Dojo, Chris told a few of the students, the students that are
- 42:30here mostly not all the students from Cobra Kai, but the ones
- 42:35that are here mostly. So he didn't want Miguel, of
- 42:40course. And This is why you get the
- 42:42whole point of how Stingray learn how to fight because he
- 42:45even having classes late at night for Hawk, Tori, Stingray,
- 42:49Mitch, Big Red and Edwin and that other guy.
- 42:55So Stingray was learning karate through night classes.
- 42:59Gotcha. Chris had the extra set of keys.
- 43:04He has that signed deal with what's his face, the landlord.
- 43:12And like, it's his place. Like, yeah, so Johnny is from in
- 43:18the morning. Chris is at night.
- 43:20He's teaching these students late at night behind Johnny's
- 43:23back. So that's my theory.
- 43:26That's how Stingray learned these moves.
- 43:31And that's how everybody's like, you know, in here, like, oh,
- 43:36well, we're still doing karate. And the fact that Johnny shows
- 43:41up here at late at night when all these other nights he was
- 43:45hanging out with Carmen or Daniel and everybody and just
- 43:48chilling with them and not having, like, scenes at the
- 43:51Cobra Kai Dojo just tells you right there like, yeah, that
- 43:55happened. That might have happened.
- 43:57Chris might have just, you know, it's mine, so you're the one
- 44:01that's out, not me. Chris was mind controlling them
- 44:08at night. Yes, and that's why hawk are
- 44:12still like sinking increases head like oh he's my he's my
- 44:19sensei. It's like I have learned from
- 44:21him when the entire time when you saw Crease was gone the
- 44:26entire time these last few episodes, he really wasn't.
- 44:29He was just like teaching them like new stuff, telling them
- 44:35what to say, what to do, how to sync.
- 44:38And Hawk is like the leader in all of this.
- 44:41This is crease is with Hawk. Crease is Hawk is Crease is
- 44:46Padawan, Another Star Wars Yeah reference.
- 44:51There you go, The dark. The dark set of Cobra Kai.
- 44:57Well, Speaking of Fock, I mentioned earlier how he had
- 45:03this. He had that evil.
- 45:04He was. He's very sinister.
- 45:06I feel in this episode like it's a different side of Fock that
- 45:11I've seen. Like in this particular episode,
- 45:14like when he can go after Dimitri.
- 45:18That was that was a big that was that was scary.
- 45:20Like seeing him and seeing his. It was almost like, it was
- 45:25almost like what you say about Crease and his facial.
- 45:29Yes, yes, because. He kept.
- 45:31I was getting it from Hawk. Because he kept saying
- 45:35everything that Chris was crease was like telling him to do.
- 45:39Oh, that's yes, yes, I feel like that.
- 45:41Yeah, yes, absolutely. All right, next scene, we hear a
- 45:48dark tone cover of Cruel Summer as performed by Kerry Kimmel,
- 45:53while we see Johnny getting drunk on the beach and having a
- 45:56reminiscent montage of season one and two between him and
- 45:58Miguel, remembering the fun things they've done this whole
- 46:01time. And This is why I thought like,
- 46:03oh shit, they're ending the show.
- 46:06Like they better come bring it back for season three.
- 46:08They better bring it back for season 3.
- 46:10I honestly did too. I honestly thought that it was
- 46:14going to. I really did.
- 46:15I thought it was going to be one of those shows and they they
- 46:20fucking cancel when they shouldn't.
- 46:23Yeah. And Daniel's karate room in his
- 46:25house. Daniel's putting away everything
- 46:27in the room, including pictures of Mr. Miyagi.
- 46:29He tells Mr. Miyagi that he tried his best and he thought he
- 46:32was doing the right thing and then puts him away.
- 46:35Back at the beach, Johnny remembers what he told Carmen
- 46:38about not letting Miguel go astray.
- 46:40He throws his beer bottle at the car.
- 46:42He gets mad and throws his barcode onto the beach, drove
- 46:45the car keys into his car and walks away.
- 46:47The camera pans over to the beach and leading into the phone
- 46:50and the screen lighting up to reveal Allie Mills.
- 46:54Schwarber has sent him a friend request on Facebook and the
- 46:58scene and the episode ends there.
- 47:05Yelled what? I did too.
- 47:10They better be a season 2. They better be a season 3.
- 47:15I first I'm like, oh, that's it told I I yeah, it kind of ended
- 47:22like that. I was like, no.
- 47:26Can we just agree the badass moment was the fight?
- 47:29The entire scene? The.
- 47:32Entire that entire fight from start to finish.
- 47:36From the 12 minute mark all the way through the 30 minutes that
- 47:41that fight was like long and the ending of that.
- 47:46History, I swear. And the ending of that fight was
- 47:50just heartbreaking and like what the hell just did I just watch?
- 47:56What the hell did? Yeah, exactly what the hell just
- 47:59happened? That was a holy shit scene,
- 48:05yeah. Final thoughts on this episode?
- 48:10What? What do you think of it like?
- 48:14This this is my favorite. This is definitely my top,
- 48:19probably my top favorite for number one episode like see, or
- 48:27at least for any of the season finales out of the five seasons.
- 48:32This is this is definitely probably, I have to say this is
- 48:35#1 for me. This is number one.
- 48:38I love how crease is in both season finales.
- 48:43I swear to God, he's like, he's like Jason.
- 48:47Like he never dies. Jason, one of them, like
- 48:52seriously, like he, Michael Myers, Michael Myers, he never
- 48:56dies. Like.
- 48:57He's supposed to be dead and he's not.
- 48:59Like he just keeps coming back. Like, yeah.
- 49:04From start to finish, this whole episode, from the start, the
- 49:09cold open, Daniel and Johnny fighting in the beginning,
- 49:14showing the same move even from the current, from The Karate
- 49:18Kid, like they're doing the same move.
- 49:20So it's like, wait, what? Like that did really happen.
- 49:26And then like, they stopped for a minute and then they stare.
- 49:29They look right back at each other like, you want to continue
- 49:32this? Let's go.
- 49:33Like, Nah, take your kid home. We'll do this later, but take
- 49:38your kid home. We have a little low, as Chris
- 49:44says, you know, peace between the wars and stuff for a little
- 49:50bit. And then Tori, who disappeared
- 49:52late at night from the party and was like, where the hell did she
- 49:56go? I'm just going to go home, grab
- 49:58my stuff, grab my knuckles and then heads to school, break into
- 50:04the PA system and like I'm getting expelled in the first
- 50:09day of school. Fuck it, like.
- 50:12What, what sounds about to say that's like, yeah.
- 50:16Yeah, do your best and entire fight thing.
- 50:21There it is, Dimitri's glow up. Dimitri like going from right?
- 50:31Yeah. Dimitri and Hawk, yeah.
- 50:35I was like, I was scared to death for Dimitri.
- 50:40When Hawk went after him, I was like, Oh no, no, he's going to
- 50:44get his ass kicked. And then didn't Dimitri like,
- 50:50yeah, that was bad. That was a bad ass.
- 50:54That was a badass scene when Dimitri got talk.
- 50:58Yeah. Yeah, I'm just now I'm thinking
- 51:02about season three. Sorry.
- 51:04Never mind. I I know he can't go there yet,
- 51:07but yeah, OK. Oh my God, yeah, everything was
- 51:13amazing on April 27th, 2019, Fabio Gaucho wrote on IMDb.
- 51:19Someone said you told you this episode makes the audience
- 51:23shocked and morally confused. That's true, but I also think
- 51:27that as the point the blood the bad blood accumulated among
- 51:30students of the two dojos combined with the truly
- 51:32dangerous skills they acquired was a recipe for bad things to
- 51:36happen. After a long time in training,
- 51:38the kids end up applying karate to personal feuds, romantic
- 51:41jealousy, and settling scores. Even with the most Miyagi like
- 51:45lessons, that will tend to lead to grave outcomes when all the
- 51:48tensions that escalated through the season climax in the chaotic
- 51:52confrontation between teens that don't know when to stop or are
- 51:56not aware of their own strength, don't know how to use their
- 51:59skills responsibly and control their emotions.
- 52:03Both Johnny and Daniel will have to live now with the
- 52:06consequences of their actions. Unfortunately that is a recipe
- 52:09for season three that starts slowly as people will need to
- 52:12find a new relationship with karate before going back to
- 52:15training. I hope they will pull it off
- 52:17because after the awesome climax and all the cliffhangers they
- 52:20will be protest outside YouTube if there's no season three.
- 52:25There was hold on, hold on over on The Karate Kid fandom.
- 52:33Derp derp, derpy, says the scene where Johnny and Daniel silently
- 52:37share an elevator ride sums up their respective sentiments on
- 52:40the matter. Knowing full well they screwed
- 52:43up, they had no idea what to do next.
- 52:45They look just so shattered and broken nose to nose with their
- 52:48single biggest failure. OK so protest outside of
- 52:57YouTube. I was one of them.
- 53:03Unfortunately this have the show 2019-2020 happened.
- 53:10We have no idea what's going on. All of our shows are like either
- 53:14on hiatus or cancelled or we're just going to keep going and
- 53:18like do separate scenes with each other.
- 53:22And like everywhere I've seen like all these shows that I've
- 53:26been watching since like 2018 and then moved on to 2022 and
- 53:29all that stuff. You know when COVID happens, you
- 53:33know when 2020 happens because they it is the most ridiculous
- 53:38thing ever. It's like 3 people are doing 1
- 53:41scene and then like other three people are doing another and
- 53:46they don't they don't put them together anymore.
- 53:49It's like wait, what's going on? 02020 OK, I see those three
- 53:54people were in a bubble. These three people were in a
- 53:56bubble. They had their own little
- 53:58bubble. So what to do?
- 54:03We're all waiting for season three.
- 54:04We're all looking for it of what's it called, YouTube Red,
- 54:12YouTube Premium, whatever that was decided not to bring back
- 54:15season 3. Yes, I understand.
- 54:25OK, I get it. Wow, thanks for the memory.
- 54:28So I really appreciate that. Wow, 2021 Netflix decides, hey,
- 54:38we're going to bring season one and two to Netflix and we'll see
- 54:42how it goes. It happens.
- 54:45They have a tremendous amount of ratings on the shows.
- 54:49Season one and two. Great.
- 54:51OK, we're going to ask them to do season 3 for 20/22, right?
- 54:57Yes, it happened. We hear.
- 55:02So everybody that like our fans of the Netflix show, our new
- 55:09fans, we had to wait. Those other people that were
- 55:13from YouTube, we had to wait two years for season three.
- 55:17Well, everybody else on Netflix, all season one.
- 55:19Oh, season 2. Oh, season 3.
- 55:21Yay. So yes, that was my saying.
- 55:28When it got cancelled, when 2020 happened, when 2021 happened,
- 55:33when we did, they decided season three, yes.
- 55:37And was that on New Year's Eve? On New Year's Day, Season 3?
- 55:43Is that when it happened? I think so.
- 55:45And then? And then that same year, Season
- 55:484, and now we're like season five and six on 2023 and 2024.
- 55:55Oh goodness, that's telling you. It was it was great being a fan
- 56:06of Cobra Kai back in the YouTube Red era.
- 56:10Now we're like in the Netflix era.
- 56:11It's like, alright, cool. But still, people are still
- 56:19putting the spoilers out there, and I hate them for that.
- 56:21So yeah, let's not do that, please.
- 56:28So what did you think? How did you like?
- 56:30You became a fan on Netflix, right?
- 56:34I did, yes. Yeah.
- 56:35OK, so you got that season one, you got that season 2.
- 56:39What'd you think of like as soon as they announced for season
- 56:42three, what you think of it like, were you, were you like on
- 56:46board? Were you excited for it?
- 56:48Yes, yes, absolutely. I I was on pins and needles
- 56:55waiting for this announcement. So yes, I was, I was so freaking
- 57:01relieved and happy. Yeah, I was relieved.
- 57:04Actually, when I heard season three, I was like, because they
- 57:10just God the when they cancel shows that are so there's
- 57:15they're good and then they leave you hanging and then cancel a
- 57:19show. It just pisses me off.
- 57:22So I'm so glad that this this this one came back.
- 57:26I was so happy, so happy, yes, and then when they announced
- 57:32another four and five or whatever, I was like, Oh my God,
- 57:34are you kidding me? Let's keep it going, let's keep
- 57:36it going. Just keep going season.
- 57:39The Miyagi verse, the season six, and then the movie.
- 57:42Six seasons of the movie. I can't believe Cobra Kai got
- 57:46six seasons of the movie and community is still struggling.
- 57:49Oh my God, I'm still waiting for that community movie.
- 57:56Let's go. Like I hope it's real.
- 58:05That's it, you're ready to end this?
- 58:08Like did we get everything in there is like, do we love Season
- 58:122? I mean, did we get everything?
- 58:15Do do you? Did you love Season 2?
- 58:17I we should like we definitely. We're doing a Season 2 recap,
- 58:21right? Of course we are.
- 58:22Yeah, yeah, we should definitely do a Season 2 recap.
- 58:26Absolutely. Like, not scene by scene, but
- 58:29like a recap of our favorite episodes and like actually.
- 58:33Like a favorite scene or a favorite episode?
- 58:35Yes. Yeah, so like, we're probably
- 58:38going to invite Mike and Greg again on the show and we're
- 58:43going to fucking talk about this.
- 58:46I think we need to. I would love to hear their
- 58:49reactions to especially to the the season finale for sure.
- 58:55For real, like who else? Like if you were a fan of the
- 59:00YouTube red or YouTube premium, whatever the hell that was, I
- 59:02don't even care about it anymore and you, you were a fan just
- 59:06like I was any we had to wait for those two years of hiatus.
- 59:10What did you think about it once it got to season three on
- 59:14Netflix? Like comment down below, let us
- 59:17know, send me a message. I wanted it so bad.
- 59:22I said it's like I was upset. I was like how dare they like
- 59:27what? And then season three on that
- 59:29and that's why I was like upset about the fact that everybody
