Sato Miyagi, I wait long time for this. No tricks tonight, or tomorrow, everthing gone. Their homes. Their church. Everything gone.

Hey Mr. Miyagi, you know I've been thinking.
About what, Daniel-san?
That we should come with some kind of strategy.
For what?
My future, my whole tournament career.
Miyagi already have one.
Really? What is it?
Early retirement.
You could have killed him.
Well, why didn't you?
Because Daniel-san, for person with no forgiveness in heart, living worse punishment than death.
Ah, Daniel-san! Must've been some senior prom. What happened?
You mean, what didn't happen. First I let Ali borrow this car, and she redesigns my fender. And I don't know what she's done to my engine, but that ain't running right either. You know what else she's done? She tells me she's fallen in love with some football player from UCLA. Why couldn't she just lie to me or something?
Things could be worse.
Don't worry, they are. Last night, my mom tells me she got transferred by her company to their new branch... in Fresno! I can't believe I gotta spend my entire vacation in Fresno.
[Miyagi is examining the car, reaching under its hood]
You're not gonna be able to fix that.
[No sooner than the words out of Daniel's mouth than Miyagi twists something around; now the engine runs perfectly]
How'd you do that? What'd you do?
Hey, what are you building out there?
Guest room.
Are you expecting company?
Nah, refugee.
Refugee? Oh yeah, that's great. From where?
Fresno.
If you and Sato fought, would your father be the referee?
No referee.
Then how do you know who wins?
The one who's dead, doesn't.
You think you could break a log like that?
Don't know. Never been attacked by a tree.
Sato So coward, you return...
To settle affairs with father.
Sato And with me.
Sato, I no fight you.
Sato Then you die as you have lived; a coward. You see your father, then you see me.
I don't get something. If Sato hates you so much, why does he give you time to mourn?
Because, Daniel-san, my father was his teacher. Deep in heart, Sato still know right from wrong.
Then why does he still want to kill you?
Daniel-san, you alright?
Yeah... I'm sorry; that was pretty stupid, wasn't it?
[with a grim smile]
Miyagi say that to father when same thing happen. Father agree, was stupid. Father was right.
Don't those lies bother you?
Why not? People might think that they are true.
Lies only become true if person choose to believe.
Is that an old Okinawa saying?
No. New Okinawa saying.
How new?
Let's see... [pauses, pretends to think] About ten seconds.
Kumiko [confused]
But we're on the road.
You dance very nice like geisha! [snickers] His favorite teacher's karate technique... the "let's go". You know, geisha also like to sing?
Oh no, not again. Hey, I'm looking for any trouble.
There maybe trouble looking for you.
Hey, what's this? What's Sato doing here?
Don't know.
Sato [Sato gets out, dressed in a foreman's outfit]
I come help rebuild. Here deed to village. [bows low] Forgive me. I beg of you.
[Daniel and Kumiko approach Sato]
Mr. Sato? Can I say something? Well, the Obon's coming up, and they really can't have it in the village dance now...
Sato What do you ask of me?
Well, can they have it in the castle? I mean that's where it really belongs, isn't it?
Sato [smiles to Miyagi]
Your student become my teacher. [shouts] Obon will be held in castle, now and forever!
Sato [Cheering. Daniel and Sato shake hands]
One condition: you dance with us. Okay?
Okay.
Sato Chosen, don't do this. I was wrong! Hate is wrong! It's over.
Chosen, you your uncle's finest student. No disgrace in here.
Your student disgraced me. I have been dishonored all because of him.
Hey, whatever happened, I apologized.
Apology will not give me back my honor.
Well, neither will this.
In their eyes it will. No more talk. You cross bridge or I kill her.
[Daniel starts to cross the bridge]
Daniel-san, this not tournament. This for real.
Live or die, man.
Die.
Wrong. [honks Chosen's nose]
Broken ice, or a broken neck!
[The morning after the storm, Daniel and Mr Miyagi survey the damage as the villagers try to pick up the pieces]
How are they gonna recover from this? All the seeds are gone, the place is wrecked. Whare are they gonna do now?
Best they can.
Don't know.
Sato [Sato gets out, dressed in a foreman's outfit] [bows to Mr Miyagi]
I come help rebuild. [presents box] Here deed to village. Forgive me. I beg of you. [bows lower]
Kumiko It's not my place.
Mr. Sato, O-bon dance is soon... and it'll be really hard the way things are to have it here in the village.
Sato What do you ask of me?
Well, can they have it in the castle? I mean that's where it really belongs, isn't it?
Sato [smiles to Miyagi]
Your student become my teacher. [Mr Miyagi and Yukie smile. to villagers] Obon will be held in castle, now and forever! [Everybody cheers; to Daniel with index finger] One condition: you dance with us. Okay?
You got it! [shakes hands with Sato]
