- John Kreese: Congratulations. You did what I always thought you could do. You won. Cobra Kai is back where it belongs: Back on top. Everyone closed the book on us. They thought we were done. But now they see... that the real story has only just begun.
- Aisha: [Bert describes Johnny drunk] Well, why didn't you tell us this earlier?
- Bert: I don't know. I guess I'm so used to seeing him drunk, it didn't seem like that big a deal.
- Hawk: Well, we're here and he's not. So it's officially a big deal. What if something happened to him?
- Bert: Like what?
- Hawk: Like he drove his car off a cliff, or he bought a gun and blew his brains out.
- Aisha: No. Sensei would never kill himself. It's too pussy a move.
- Hawk: Whatever. I mean, we're here. We're gonna have to do it without him.
- Johnny Lawrence: Do what without me?
- Aisha: Sensei.
- Hawk: We didn't think you were gonna show up.
- Johnny Lawrence: I may not always win but I never back out of a fight.
- Miguel Diaz: Great. Let's sign up.
- Johnny Lawrence: Not yet. There's one more lesson I have to teach you.
- [In the arena lobby]
- Johnny Lawrence: You've all learned to strike first. To be aggressive... and not be losers. I taught you to strike hard. To put every ounce of your power behind everything you do. But I haven't taught you the third rule of Cobra Kai: No mercy. The older you get, the more you're gonna learn... that life isn't fair. You wake up one morning feeling great, and then life throws a spinning heel kick to your balls, and takes a big steaming shit in your mouth. You get an F on a test. You get suspended. You fall in love with a girl, but some other dude comes and steals her away. Your car gets set on fire. Just when you think things are going good, everything falls apart. That's how it goes. Life shows no mercy; so neither do we. We do whatever it takes to keep our heads above water. We do whatever it takes to keep moving forward. We do whatever it takes to win! Remember who you are. You're badass. You don't give a shit. You kick ass. You're Cobra Kai.
- Miguel Diaz: COBRA KAI!
- [the Cobra Kai team yells alongside Miguel]
- Johnny Lawrence: All right, guys, let's get down there and kick the shit out of everybody.
- Miguel Diaz: Yeah!
- Johnny Lawrence: [Miguel pulls out his white karate gi] No.
- [confused look on Miguel's face]
- Johnny Lawrence: You're not wearing those.
- Daniel LaRusso: Look, Robby... your dad and I, we have our issues. But you and him? That's another story.
- Robby Keene: I'm sorry I lied to you, Mr. LaRusso. I just wanted to get back at him.
- Daniel LaRusso: I know. But you're never gonna find balance that way. You can't let that bad blood change who you are. I'm not saying you need to like the guy. I know I never will. But he... he is your father. And believe me, you're lucky to have one. You just gotta try to remember, he's... he's not a monster. He's just a guy with a lot of demons. Mr. Miyagi always told me there's no such thing as a bad student, only a bad teacher. And your dad had the worst teacher there ever was. It sent him down a wrong path. But you don't have to go down that path. Do you understand? You don't have to ever become him. Trust me. You let go of all that anger, and I guarantee you, no matter what happens tonight, you go home feeling great.
- Daryl: This is it, folks. The moment we've all been waiting for. The final match to determine who will be victor and champion. Will it be Miguel Diaz from Cobra Kai Karate? Will it be Robby Keene, unaffili
- [a female official interrupts and whispers]
- Daryl: Daniel LaRusso's gonna coach?
- [Female offical nods yes]
- Daryl: Daniel LaRusso is gonna coach! I'm sorry, folks. There's been a change. Robby Keene will now be fighting for Miyagi-Do Karate with former champion Daniel LaRusso as his sensei! How about that? Good luck, gentlemen.
- Johnny Lawrence: [Daniel and Johnny approach each other at the side of the mat] What do you think you're doing?
- Daniel LaRusso: Coaching my student. Somebody needs to be there for him.
- Johnny Lawrence: You think this is funny?
- Daniel LaRusso: Do you see me laughing?
- Johnny Lawrence: You're gonna regret this when it's over.
- Daniel LaRusso: Yeah, right. Like this will ever be over.
- Amanda LaRusso: [Amanda walks in to see Daniel and Sam sitting quietly on opposite sides of the living room couch] So is this the plan for the whole day? Cause I was thinking we could swing by the DMV or maybe a funeral. Put a lil pep in our step. Come on, guys.
- [Amanda looks at Sam]
- Amanda LaRusso: So your boyfriend turned out to be a jerk.
- [Amanda looks at Daniel]
- Amanda LaRusso: And your boyfriend turned out to be the son of your mortal enemy. You can't expect me to go to this tournament all by myself. You know how creeped out I get around karate moms.
- Daniel LaRusso: Nobody's making you go.
- Amanda LaRusso: LaRusso Auto Group is one of the main sponsors. One of us has to be there. You know what? Fine. Fine. I'm gonna be looking at boots on Zappos if anybody needs me.
- [Amanda leaves the room]
- Samantha LaRusso: I'll go if you want to go.
- Daniel LaRusso: I didn't say anything.
- Samantha LaRusso: I know. I just know it's your thing.
- Daniel LaRusso: Not this year.
- Samantha LaRusso: Everyone I know is gonna be there.
- Daniel LaRusso: It is the 50th Anniversary.
- Samantha LaRusso: You did a great job out there. You know, if you hadn't resorted to that sweep, you totally would've had him.
- Aisha: I don't need your sympathy.
- Samantha LaRusso: I know this is probably the last thing you want to hear right now, but I'm really sorry. You're my oldest friend and I never should've hung out with someone like Yasmine in the first place.
- Aisha: You got that right.
- Samantha LaRusso: All I know is after that front wedgie, she's never gonna live that down.
- Aisha: You saw that?
- Samantha LaRusso: It's all over YouTube. You really tore her a new vagina.
- [both girls laugh]
- Samantha LaRusso: You know? I got to admit it's a pretty cool gi.
- Aisha: Thank you.
- Samantha LaRusso: I mean, the snake's a little on the evil side but I like the colors.
- Aisha: I could probably get you one.
- Samantha LaRusso: Yeah, right. My dad would have a heart attack.
- Aisha: Well, even if you don't join Cobra Kai, we could definitely use another girl out there.
