Knuckles and Chris are now in the ring. 

Knuckles: Keep away from me!

Chris roars as he charges at Knuckles who leaps out of the way.

Knuckles: Please, Chris! I don't wanna fight you!

Scarlet now sits in the announcer's booth, with Tails by her side.

Scarlet: I don't understand, Tails. Why is Knuckles running away?

Tails: Knuckles probably doesn't want to fight 'cause he's afraid that Chris is gonna get hurt.

Chris continues lunging repeatedly at Knuckles, who continues dodging.

Chris: Let's go, Knuckles!

Knuckles: No!

Chris: Quit running away!

Knuckles: I won't! Cut it out!

Chris: Come on and fight me!

Knuckles: I'm not gonna fight you!

Chris: Hey!

Scarlet: That Chris Thorndyke certainly is brave.

Aylin rubs her face in embarrassment but smiles weirdly. 

Tails: Especially when the other guy's running away.

Chris finally pauses.

Chris: Why don't you just forfeit so I can win?

Knuckles: Okay... but look who's in the next round!

Chris looks at the tournament bracket.

Chris: I'd have to fight Amy or Rouge?! including Aylin

Chris gulps, then suddenly feigns injury.

Chris: My appendix! Get me a doctor!

Elmer raises Knuckles' hand in victory.

Elmer: Knuckles moves on!

Chris and Chuck are standing together outside the ring.

Chuck: I think you made a very wise move, Chris.

Chris nodded. 

Chris: Yeah.

Nelson: I see you have your mom's acting talent.

Chris rubs behind his head. E-77 Lucky and Mr. Stewart are next in the ring. However, words cannot say that Lucky won. Next up was Emerl vs Tanaka. Tanaka walks into the ring to face Emerl. He is wearing cultural clothing and is carrying a long wooden stick.

Aylin: ............what........

Tanaka: Brake yourself, my little friend! I am going to stick it to you!

He leaps into the air with his wooden sword, and attempts to slam it upon Emerl, but the robot copies his skill and catches the other end of the stick.

Tanaka: Oh no...

Emerl wrenches the sword out of Tanaka's grasp and leaps into the air.

Tanaka: I think I'm on the wrong end of that stick...

The wooden sword stops right above Tanaka's cowering head.

Tanaka: I give up.

Cream cheered.
