Nightfall comes and you are back in the valley. Seeing Po and your dad about to leave you try to help.

You: Po. Dad. Need help?

Mr. Ping: Yes. If you could bring this on the way.

You do as your told and then stop cause Po stoped.

Mr ping: Er, Po... I'm sorry things didn't work out. It just... wasn't meant to be. Po, forget everything else. Your destiny still awaits. We are noodle folk... broth runs deep through our veins!

Po: I don't know, Dad. Honestly, sometimes I can't believe I'm actually your son.

Mr Ping: Po, I think it's time I told you something I should have told you and your brother a long time ago...

Po: Ok...

You: What's up.

Mr ping: The secret ingredient of my secret ingredient soup!

Po: Oh!

Mr ping: C'mere! The secret ingredient is... nothing!

Both: huh?

Mr ping: You heard me. Nothing. There is no secret ingredient!

Po: Wait wait wait...it's just plain old noodle soup? You don't add some kind of special sauce or something?

Mr ping: Don't have to. To make something special, you just have to believe it's special.

They both look at each other and Po picks up the dragon scroll. And realizes what master oogway meant.

Po: There is no secret ingredient.

He looks back at the jade palace and knows what he has to do.

At the top of the stairs outside the Hall of Warriors, Shifu looks upon the valley, awaiting his fate. In the valley below, the lights from the evacuation make their way out of the valley. In a blink of Shifu's eyes, Tai Lung appears before him.

TAI LUNG
I have come home, Master.

SHIFU
This is no longer your home. And I am no longer your master.

TAI LUNG
Yes. You have a new favorite. So where is this... Po? [Chuckles] Did I scare him off?

SHIFU
This battle is between you and me.

TAI LUNG
So... [Tai Lung turns his back on Shifu.] That is how it's going to be?

SHIFU
That is how it must be.

Tai Lung looks back at him... and then attacks. The two battle. Tai Lung punches Shifu clean through the doors of the Jade Palace. Shifu recovers himself quickly and faces his former student. Tai Lung enters, his face a mask of pure fury.]

TAI LUNG
I rotted in jail for twenty years because of your weakness!

SHIFU
Obeying your master is not weakness!

TAI LUNG
You knew I was the Dragon Warrior! You always knew...

[Dissolve to FLASHBACK. In the Hall of Warriors, Shifu presents Tai Lung to Master Oogway. Both a slightly younger Tai Lung and Shifu look expectant. Oogway gives Shifu a look. Shifu is dismayed.]

TAI LUNG
But when Oogway said otherwise, what did you do? What did you do?!

[Tai Lung looks to Shifu who averts his eyes and the past dissolves into the present.]

TAI LUNG
NOTHING!

SHIFU
You were not meant to be the Dragon Warrior! That was not my fault!

TAI LUNG
[Points at Shifu] NOT YOUR FAULT?!
