Underdog Kids Page #4

Synopsis: Jimmy "The Lightning Bolt" Lee is a former mixed martial arts champion who returns home and is asked by his father figure, Charlie, to teach a group of inner city kids martial arts in preparation for a tournament. The reigning junior national champions, the Beverly Hills Scorpions, are coached by the very cocky and arrogant Ted Barret, who is a former rival of Jimmy's. With help from local food truck vendor Big Mama, Jimmy's team becomes the Underdogs. As the Underdogs prepare for the big tournament, both the kids and Jimmy learn some lessons from each other that will make their bond stronger as they prepare for a showdown with the Scorpions.

It was nothing.

- Coach?

- Yes?

Kids.

Move aside.

Take him out.

I hear you were messing

with my brother out there.

Yeah, so?

So nobody hits my brother

and gets away with it.

I'll tell you what...

if you beat me...

I'll do anything you say.

But if I beat you,

in fact, if I beat all of you,

you'll do what I say.

Fair?

Who do you think you are,

Superman?

I'm just his nanny.

Wyatt, step aside.

Kids, I want you

to close your eyes.

Ow!

You, go! You, take him out.

Ricky, you have

a lot of potential.

You need to make a choice.

You wanna take someone out,

you gotta do it yourself.

You all right?

Six, seven, eight, nine, ten.

Get up.

- I am strong. Are you strong?

- Yes, sir!

- Are you strong?

- Yes, sir!

- Are you a champion?

- Yes, sir!

- Are you a winner?

- Yes, sir!

- Do you have what it takes?

- Yes, sir!

- Are you sure?

- Yes, sir!

- Are you sure?

- Yes, sir!

Then give me 10 more, now!

So, listen up, everybody.

You all know about this tournament

that's coming up in two weeks.

I think this would be

a good opportunity

for all of you to participate.

What are you doing here, Ricky?

- I came to apologize.

- For what?

My behavior.

And?

I won't quit.

Charlie?

You made a good choice, son.

Thank you, sir.

Wyatt?

Dude, I'm sorry.

It's all right, man.

Thank you.

Thank you all for being here.

Today we appreciate it so much.

As a proud sponsor

of this year's tournament,

we at Champions Are Us

want you to know

that we are dedicated

to building a bright future

for all our children.

And now I hope

that you will join in with me

in a nice big round of applause

for the three-time All-City

Junior National Champions,

the Beverly Hills Scorpions.

Now,

this is your first tournament,

so I want you to work really

hard and use your hands a lot.

- Your strategy...

- Jimmy Lee.

I hadn't heard that voice

in a long time.

I thought it was you.

Ted Barret. How's it going?

Great, just great.

My team's undefeated champions

three years running.

Life couldn't be sweeter.

I'm sorry, how about you?

I can't complain.

- Really?

- Yeah.

Well, that's funny 'cause

I thought I heard a nasty rumor

that you can't even get a fight.

Now, that couldn't be true,

could it?

You know, you haven't changed

since we were little kids,

you know that?

What've we got here?

This is my team.

Kids, say hello

to Mr. Ted Barret.

Ted Barret?

The undefeated

world karate champion?

That's right.

You're looking at him.

Can I have your autograph?

Well, now, if I gave you

my autograph,

I'd have to give it to

everybody, wouldn't I?

I've got some presigned 8x10s right

back there for only 10 bucks.
