"This could all be over in an instant!" Johnny shouts, walking back and forth between his students. Johnny was having them do very intense, harsh training until someone would come forth and confess who wrecked the Miyagi-Do dojo.
"The decision's yours. Who trashed the Miyagi dojo? Y'all know I'm no fan of LaRusso's, but that sort of bullshit we don't teach in here." Johnny says and looks to Kreese. "At least not anymore."
"So, I'm gonna ask you again. Who trashed Miyagi-Do?"
"It was not me, Sensei. I would never disrespect another man's dojo..." Chubs says, out of breath.
"Shut your cake hole, Chubs. I'm not looking for excuses. I'm looking for answers." Johnny says.
"Dad, we really don't know who did it." Annie says, tired as if her arms were going to break off.
"Somebody knows something." Kreese says. "Question is, who's gonna break?"
"Keep going, we can do this all day." Johnny says and goes into his office.
"Sensei, we need a water break." Miguel says to Kreese.
"Two-minute break. Get your bearings." Kreese says and Annie flops to the floor. She takes several deep breaths and gets up and notices Amber and Kreese talking to one another.
"I gotta go deal with something." Johnny says to Kreese, getting out of his office. "Can you man the fort?"
"Of course." Kreese answers.
"Where you going, dad?" Annie asks and Johnny gives his daughter a sympathetic look.
"Your Uncle Tommy is getting worse. Me and the boys are gonna go stay with him today." Johnny says and Annie's heart sinks.
"Oh my gosh, dad." Annie says and takes a deep breath. "I wanna see him."
"Annie..." Johnny starts to say but is interrupted.
"Dad. I don't know if I'll ever see him again. Please." Annie pleads.
Johnny sighs before saying, "Fine."
Annie walks and grabs her bag.
"Where you going?" Miguel questions.
"Oh hey Miguel. Um, my dad's friend who is basically like an uncle to me, well he has cancer and he's getting worse. So, me and my dad are just going to visit him today." Annie tells him and Miguel nods.
"Oh, okay. Well, give the guy a hug from me." Miguel says.
"What? Dude, you barely know him and he has no idea you exist." Annie says and Miguel smiles.
"Yeah, but you can still give him a hug." Miguel says and Annie laughs and shakes her head.
"I will, okay. Bye Miggy." Annie says and exits with her father.

Katie, Sam, Robby, Joey and Demetri were all trying to lift a huge rock back up.
"Are you guys lifting? Because I feel like I'm doing nothing here." Demetri says.
"Forget it, all right. It's too heavy. We're gonna need a forklift." Robby says.
"How did they even knock it over?" Joey asks.
"It's a lot easier to knock something down than it is to lift it up." Katie explains.
"Don't worry. We'll get it up again." Katie says, trying to be positive.
From teh front of the dojo, a couple of students from Cobra Kai appear.
