Why no way?
Because--because--
Because, uh, because old man?
[chuckles]
Have tea. Feel better.
[sighs]
How come you didn't tell me?
Tell you what?
That you knew karate.
You never ask.
Where'd you learn it from?
Father.
I thought he was a fisherman.
In okinawa, ALL MIYAGI KNOW 2 THING: fish and karate.
Karate come from china, 16th century.
Called "te." "hand."
Much later, miyagi ancestor call "karate".
"Empty hand."
I always thought it came from buddhist temples and stuff like that.
You have too much t.v.
That's what my mother tells me.
Hey, you ever taught anyone?
No.
Would you?
Depend.
On what?
Reason.
How's revenge?
Daniel-san, you look revenge that way, start by digging 2 grave.
Well, at least I have company, right?
Fighting always last answer to problem.
Uh, no offense, Mr. Miyaji, but I don't think you understand my problem.
Miyagi understand problem perfect.
Your friend all karate student, eh?
"Friend"? Oh, yeah, those guys.
Problem, attitude.
No, problem is I'm getting my *** kicked every other day.
That's the problem.
Because boys have bad attitude.
Karate for defense only.
That's not what these guys are taught.
I can see.
No such thing bad student.
Only bad teacher.
Teacher say, student do.
Oh, great. That solves everything for me.
I'll just go down to the school and straighten it out with the teacher.
No problem.
Now use head for something other than target.
I was only kidding about that.
Why kidding?
Because I'll get killed if I show up there.
Get killed anyway.
Would you go with me?
No, can't.
Why? You said it was a good idea, right?
For you, good idea.
For me, good idea no get involved.
Oh, but you already are involved. I mean, you're--
Very sorry.
What?
Well, thanks for nothin' then.
Thanks for nothin'.
Like I didn't have enough problems already.
Now I got to carry your weight, too.
Don't do me any more favors again, pal.
Daniel-san?
What?
Ok, I go.
Well, excellent. Excellent. Mr. Miyaji, this is great--
Miyagi.
Miyagi. Miyagi.
Hey, what kind of belt do you have?
Canvas. You like?
J.c. Penney. $3.98.
Oh, I didn't mean a belt like that. I meant--
In okinawa, belt mean no need rope hold up pants.
That's--that's--that's-- That's funny.
Daniel-san.
What?
Karate here.
Karate here.
Karate never here.
You understand?
I think so.
Good night, daniel-san.
Good night, Mr. Miyaji. Miyagi. Miyagi.
Tomorrow morning?
10:00.
Oh, yeah.
Thanks for helping me out with my friends out there.
Hey, good morning, Mr. Miyagi.
Oh, good morning, daniel-san.
How you feel this morning?
I'm a little sore, really.
Huh.
You, uh, know how drive?
Uh, yeah, yeah, I do, really.
No, no, no, I'm not-- I'm not very good at it, Mr. Miyagi.
Me, neither.
Well, I really don't have a license.
Me, neither.
I--I guess it's ok, then.

An enemy deserves no mercy.
What is the problem, Mr. Lawrence?
[inaudible]
Hey, come on, let's forget this.
Wait. Not yet.
Class, we have visitors. Fall in behind me. Hai!
I hear you jumped some of my students last night.
Afraid the facts mixed up.
Are you calling Mr. Lawrence a liar?
No call no one nothing.
What are you here for, old man?
Come ask leave boy alone.
What's the matter? The boy can't take care of his own problems?
One-to-one problem, yes.
5-to-one problem, too much ask anyone.
Is that what's bothering you? The odds?
Well, we can fix that.
Feel like matching, Mr. Lawrence?
Yes, sensei!
No more fighting.
This is a karate dojo, not a knitting class.
You don't come in my dojo and drop a challenge and leave, old man.
Now, get your boy on the mat, or you and I will have a major problem.
Too much advantage, your dojo.
Name a place.
Tournament.
[snickering]
You got real nerve, old man. Real nerve.
But I think we can accommodate you.
Can't we, Mr. Lawrence?
Yes, sensei.
Fall in.
Ask one more small request.
Make it fast.
Ask leave boy alone to train.
You're a pushy little ***, ain't you?
But I like that. I like that.
All right. No one touches the prima donna until the tournament.
Is that understood?
(all) Yes, sensei!
But you don't show
and it's open season
on him
and you.
I can't believe this.
I cannot believe this.
What?
Huh?
You said you would make things better for me.
That I did.
How?
How? Just save you 2-month beating.
Oh, great. I can't wait. Now I really got something to look forward to.
(Daniel) How much longer till we get to your house?
(Miyagi) Hmm, other side tracks.
What, are you-- What, are you in the oil business, too?
[Miyagi laughing]
Not everything is as seem.
Ha, this place reminds me of newark. What are we gonna do here?
We start training.
(Miyagi) Much work be done.
(Miyagi) Tournament here before you know it.
(Daniel) Yeah. That's what I'm afraid of.
(Daniel) Man, that teacher was really wacko.
Hmm.
You really think I'm gonna beat that guy?
Ah, no matter.
Wacko teacher attitude rest in fist.
Stupid, but fact of life. Win, lose, no matter.
You make good fight. Earn respect.
Then nobody bother.
Yeah. They'll bury me where I fall.
[chuckles]
Either way, problem solved.
Wait right here.

Fine. You apologized.
You know, I got my license.

Hey, what's with you?
You expect me to do cartwheels or something?
No, I just expect a little courtesy, maybe.

[videogames beeping]
What's the matter? Truth hurt?
So you really think that's it, don't you?
Yeah, I know that's it.
Yeah, well, you're wrong.
Oh, I bet I'm wrong.
You know, daniel, I didn't go out with you because of a car or--or where you live.
Ok, well, while you're on the subject, why did you then?
Huh? Why did you?
Because I--I--I thought that maybe you and me were different.
Yeah, we're different. I'm from reseda, you're from the hills.
That's how we're different.
That's not what I mean.
Why don't you just admit that you can't handle the situation the way it is?
I can handle it fine. You can't.
What makes you so sensitive?
What?
She's never been anything but nice to you.
She was so nice she used me to make what's his name jealous.
She doesn't even like what's his name.
I'd never have guessed the way they kissed at that country club.
Oh, that's right.
You didn't stick around for the, uh, exciting conclusion.
Oh, what was that? His hand on her ***?
Her right hook. You think she sprained her wrist doing her nails?
She hit him?
That's an understatement.
Why didn't she say something?
She shouldn't have to, should she?
