Underdog Kids Page #2

I'm gonna pretend

like I didn't hear that.

All right. I'm trying.

- Geno, just get me a fight, will ya?

- I'll try.

What if I made it so you could beat up

the kid and then... okay, forget it.

Excuse me, Mr. Lee?

What?

Aren't you gonna teach us?

So what do you wanna do?

Um...

maybe we can start

with some punching drills?

Why do we have to start

with punching drills?

Okay, you guys wanna do blocks?

Man, blocking is for the birds.

Why don't we just go

right into sparring?

It is a known fact that without

proper sparring equipment,

one can get seriously injured,

maimed, or knocked unconscious.

Man, you're just scared

and you know it.

No, I'm not.

- Yes, you are.

- Not.

- Then back it up!

- Hey, hey, hey.

Break it up.

From now on, I will lead

and you will follow.

No questions, no objections.

You got that?

Hey, Alex, what's an objection?

That's what lawyers

always say to the judge.

Quiet!

Get back in line.

If you guys keep talking,

I'm gonna give you guys

10 push-ups on your knuckles.

On our knuckles?

Man, that's B.S.!

Okay, everybody go down 10.

Forget this. I quit.

You wanna quit? Quit.

Man, I hate this class already.

Well, that's good because

I don't like you, either.

- You're mean!

- And you're short.

Go eat some Cheerios.

Where's Raymond?

Raymond!

Oh, my God.

Get your butt over here.

All of you line up. Let's go.

What... what is this?

- Just a snack.

- Just a snack?

Oh, boy.

Okay, you guys.

Right leg back, fighting stance.

You guys do know

fighting stance, yes?

Right leg back, hands up to the side.

Here we go.

Give me some kiai. One!

Again.

- Rah!

- Two, ah!

Three!

Three, ah!

Aw, is that the best

you guys could do?

It's the sound of karate.

Oh, boy, what did I get

myself into?

Three, and...

Hah!

Hah, one, two, three.

Hah!

- Hup.

- Hup.

Do you see how I executed

that technique?

It's flawless.

Speed, power, technique, and timing

is everything in competition karate.

- Does everyone understand?

- Yes, sir.

- Does everyone understand?

- Yes, sir!

Take a break.

Freeze.

- Eric.

- Yes, Dad.

Yes, sir.

What are you doing?

Helping an opponent

is a sign of weakness.

- Never do it again.

- Yes, sir.

Dismissed.

Come on, Mom,

we're gonna miss the show.

Almost done.

Why do you always gotta do that?

What?

I mean, can't we just buy it

at the theater?

20 bucks for a bucket of popcorn?

I don't think so.

Plus, mine is way better.

Then I'm not going.

- Why?

- It's embarrassing.

Honey, nobody's gonna even know!

- I'll know!

- So what?

You wanna just sit around

and mope all day

or you wanna go to the movies?

I already told you.

- I'm not going.
