(THEME MUSIC PLAYING)
Karate Kid!
Karate Kid!
Karate Kid!
Karate Kid!
Karate Kid!
I hope your friend can help us find the shrine
here in Hong Kong, Mister Miyagi.
Know my friend Tanaka since boy.
Can find needle in haystack.
Yeah, but can we find him?
What kind of address is "Wet duck who swim river of darkness
"meet fate from man with knives"?
MIYAGI: Tanaka have reason for riddle, Daniel- san.
Sometimes what looking for not what looking for.
What do you mean? A wet duck is a wet duck.
No, Daniel. Wet Duck!
Whoa!
TAKI: I just love riddles.
DANIEL: Not me. I'm a physical guy.
Balance important for body and mind, Daniel- san.
Please, go away. I have no money.
Pay today, old man,
or there'll be no tomorrow.
MIYAGI: Excuse, please.
Where I come from, customer pay shopkeeper.
This is none of your business.
Not my business. His business.
Please pay for merchandise.
You're the one who will pay!
DRAGON MEN: Whoa!
Ahhh!
This cover everything.
Hmm.
We return to riddle now.
Already find wet duck.
MIYAGI: Now look for river of darkness and man with knives.
Hmm. River of darkness
TAKI: A river where the sun doesn't shine.
That's it.
Wait, wait, don't tell me.
Whoa! (GASPS)
The sewer. Correct.
Next time get answer little bit sooner.
(THUDDING)
That sound.
It's a chopping board.
It's got to be the man with knives.
(CREAKING)
Ah, excuse me, Mr. Man with knives, we're looking for Tanaka.
(MAN GRUNTING)
DANIEL: Oh (CHUCKLES) "Rooftop next door," huh?
Yeah, yeah. I I get it.
DANIEL: I can't believe anyone lives here.
TAKI: Wow! This is so romantic.
(BOY YELLING)
Let me go! No fair.
(GRUNTING)
Oh
Huh?
Whoa!
My acting lessons are finally paying off.
Take it easy.
We didn't come here to fight.
I knew the Dragon's men were cowards.
I'm not a coward (GASPS)
and I'm not a Dragon man.
(YELLING)
Oh!
Dragon men are also liars!
Stop, Rina. Release the boy.
Have I not taught you to know your enemy before you strike?
This time your enemies are your friends.
Miyagi, my old friend.
This is my daughter, Rina.
Hi.
And my adopted sons, Shen Ying
and Ki Woo.
I would've beat you, if I was taller.
Hmm
Tanaka apologize for the unpleasant welcome.
They thought you were the Dragon's men.
Who are these Dragon guys anyway?
Come. We will explain over excellent wanton soup.
TANAKA: The Dragon and his men are a ruthless lot.
They make the people pay for protection,
if they don't pay, they take their valuables.
Except for us. We pay nothing!
That explain Tanaka's arm?
Yes, Miyagi- san.
But they can take the other one before I'll give into them.
That is why we learn karate
to wipe out the Dragon.
Mister Miyagi taught me
fighting is not the only way to beat an enemy.
Daniel make good point.
Ha! You don't know the Dragon.
Daughter remind Miyagi of Tanaka when boy.
Karate teach you restraint.
Times have changed, Miyagi- san.
Now we must fight to survive.
Mister Miyagi, you're the wise man.
How can they stop the Dragon's men without fighting?
Birds in danger flock together.
We rally the people together and drive the Dragon out.
Daniel- san, you rally people.
Tanaka, Miyagi and Taki look for shrine.
The people are too afraid.
It will never work.
You never know until you try.
Ha!
(PEOPLE CHATTER)
The Dragon men are coming for money.
Please help me.
Don't worry, sir. We'll drive them off with people power.
(PEOPLE CHATTER)
You take on big responsibility, Westerner.
You better hope your idea works.
DANIEL: It'll work. You'll see.
(MEN LAUGHING)
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
Excuse me.
I'm looking for the man with tattoos.
You just found him, my little fortune cookie.
(SCREAMING) Leave her alone!
(YELLING) Whoa!
Now that have attention.
Heard rumor you know where to find what looking for.
Well, at least we found out the shrine was sold to a pawn shop.
Just need find which one.
If we split up, we can search the marketplace.
ALL: (CHANTING) Dragon go home!
Dragon go home! Dragon go home!
Hey, don't stop now. We're getting down.
(ALL GASPING)
OLD MAN: Dragon men!
No money.
You tell your Dragon leader
that the people are mad and they're not gonna take it anymore.
Yeah!
What people?
Daniel
Move aside, Westerner, this is not your affair.
You tried your way. Now we must fight!
Sorry. No money.
Then we'll have to take something valuable. Like that.
No. Not for sale.
Statue in family 2,000 years.
And it'll be in your family for 2,000 more.
Too bad your people didn't show up to help you, boy,
because ours did!
(GLASS SHATTERING) (GRUNTING)
TANAKA: Dragon's men!
Stop! Out of the way, old man!
I take no orders from the Dragon or his men.
(GRUNTING)
(LAUGHING)
(GROANING)
We put up good fight, Father.
They had us outnumbered.
Take them home, Rina.
I must go find Miyagi.
This is all your fault!
You and your big ideas.
TANAKA: This fit's Miyagi- san's description of the shrine.
Ah!
This old arm is as useless as I am
My arm! It has healed!
You want to buy that old relic?
Yes.
TANAKA: The shrine's power will speed up your training,
so that you can defend yourselves against the Dragon.
It's a miracle.
It has given us power, just like it has healed your arm.
I can feel it.
I can hardly wait.
The Dragon won't know what hit him.
No, Ki. That is not the way of karate.
We must not abuse the power. You must promise.
ALL: Yes, Father.
After you have trained, I will return the shrine to Miyagi.
(YELLING)
The rally was a total bust, Mister Miyagi.
Wise man once say,
if at first don't succeed, try again.
Bad poet, good idea.
That's easy for him to say.
He's not the one who lost the shopkeeper's family heirloom.
Do not be so hard on yourself, Daniel.
You are only one small bird in a big sky.
But I started this and I blew it.
Maybe Rina was right. We should fight the Dragon.
Fighting only lead to more fighting.
Then feathers really fly.
Greatest victory of all is to win without fighting.
All I know is I've got to get that heirloom back.
I've got to!
(YELLING)
Ki Woo! We promised Father we will only practice defensive moves.
I just wanted to see if I could do it.
Hurry!
Let's put this chimney back together before someone sees.
Hiya, guys.
Rina, I need to talk to you.
There's nothing to talk about, Westerner.
Yes, there is.
I'm going to get the heirloom back from the Dragon,
and I need your help to find it.
Now you are one of us, Daniel.
We will get it back and everything else the Dragon has stolen.
This will be great!
We will knock that Dragon down to size!
It's an old chimney.
The oldest in Hong Kong.
These guys mean business.
Maybe I can find something to pry open the lock.
What if the guards come back?
Let us use the power.
Careful. We cannot let Daniel see.
(ALL YELLING)
How'd you do that?
A special karate kick. Our father taught us.
Brothers. Stand guard outside while we load the forklift.
All this belongs to the people?
Yes. Now you know why we fight so hard to get it back.
All right! The shopkeeper's heirloom!
Look!
Someone has broken into the warehouse
(GRUNTING)
(SCREAMING)
DANIEL: Any sign of the guards, boys?
No. Uh, no bad guys.
DRAGON: You let children make a fool of you?
DRAGON: It seems they have some
supernatural power, my Lord.
Their strength is 10 times the normal man.
How can this be?
Only last night you defeated them like whipped puppies.
If there is a power, I must know its source.
Follow them and find out!
As you wish.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you
What do you think, Mister Miyagi?
Miyagi think maybe heading down one-way street going wrong way.
How could this be wrong, Mister Miyagi?
We're heroes. (PEOPLE CHEERING)
ALL: (CHANTING) No more Dragons!
No more Dragons! No more Dragons!
Father, look what we have done for the people.
Ah! Next we get the Dragon himself!
This has gone too far.
I must return the shrine to Miyagi.
He cannot give it back. We need the shrine.
Ki Woo! Wait!
Father!
(TIRES SQUEALING)
The Dragon's men have taken Father.
We must get the shrine and save him.
No, no! Let's tell Mister Miyagi.
I will stop the Dragon myself!
Ahhh!
(PANTING)
Mister Miyagi! They have kidnapped Father!
Ki Woo has gone to get the shrine to save him.
The shrine! No time to lose.
It's in here.
The shrine is gone!
We're too late.
(YELLING)
What is the power, old man?
Tell me now or you will live to regret it.
(SECURITY VIDEO BEEPING) We have an intruder.
Ki Woo
Huh?
Huh?
Father
Power give me the strength to defeat the Dragon.
So, that is how the power works.
(YELLING)
(LAUGHING EVILLY)
Give it back!
No, Ki Woo.
Power of the shrine, let them be mine!
Stop. There's too much power!
(SECURITY VIDEO BEEPING)
The boy is not alone.
I've got a bad feeling about this. We got in too easy.
Bad feeling mutual.
This is all my doing.
Now to test my newest warriors.
Destroy the intruders!
BOTH: Yes, my Lord!
(TANAKA AND KI WOO YELLING)
Surrender or face the consequences!
Hey, aren't you picking on the wrong guy?
Look out, Daniel- san!
Mister Miyagi! Neat trick, eh?
Now help Rina and Shen.
Father, it is I, your daughter.
We are the Dragon's warriors now!
I am 10' tall. You are puny enemy.
(BOTH YELLING)
I am going after the shrine.
MIYAGI: Help Taki.
Can you hold them off, Mister Miyagi?
One way to find out. Go!
I am Taki.
I have come to dance for the Dragon.
(GRUNTING)
Nice move, Taki. You'll have to teach me that one.
Sure. But right now you take care of the Dragon
while I get the shrine.
So you escaped my warriors.
Now you must face me!
Whoa!
This is Star Wars time!
Hey, how about a game of pool?
Winner gets the shrine.
No, thank you.
I prefer a more physical approach.
(DRAGON YELLING)
(GRUNTING)
(DRAGON GRUNTING)
What are you doing, girl?
Ah, stay away from her!
The shrine! (SCREAMING)
Give me that!
(GRUNTING) Ahhh!
I can't move.
You've given me enough trouble.
Now I'm going to destroy you both!
(GRUNTING)
Daniel, remember what Mister Miyagi said.
The greatest victory is to win without fighting.
Use your mind, Daniel,
like we did with the riddle.
Right. Think. Focus.
Bonsai trees, water
Water, pool
Pool! That's it!
DANIEL: Taki, quick, use the pool balls!
I've got it, Daniel!
(GRUNTS) Whoa!
Ahhh!
No!
(YELLING)
Ahhh!
No! I must have the shrine!
The Dragon! He's escaping!
Mister Miyagi! The shrine! It's gone!
And so is the Dragon.
But he will come back. And without the shrine we'll never stop him.
Oh, yes, we will.
Thank you, my friends.
You have helped me to remember how to win without fighting.
Miyagi think Rina and boys learned same lesson.
ALL: (CHANTING) Dragon no! People yes!
Dragon no! People yes!
Dragon no! People yes!
Sayonara, Tanaka- san.
Must search for shrine.
Sayonara. See you next time we're in Hong Kong, Mister Tanaka.
Now that we know your address.
The riddle was really clever.
Especially the wet duck part.
You know, it takes a sharp mind to figure that stuff out.
Whoa
Another wise man once say,

Lousy poet. Good idea.
