    Miyagi: No call no one nothing.

    Kreese: What are you here for, old man?

    Miyagi: Come ask leave boy alone.

    Kreese: What's the matter, the boy can't take care of his own problems?

    Miyagi: One to one problem, yes. FIVE to one problem, too much ask anyone.

    Kreese: Is that what's bothering you? The odds? Well, we can fix that. Feel like matching, Mr. Lawrence?

    Miyagi: No more fighting.

    Kreese: This is a karate dojo, not a knitting class. You don't come into my dojo, drop a challenge and leave, old man. Now you get your boy on the mat, or you and I will have a major problem.

    Daniel: Let me ask you something: We both know you can stomp me, anytime and anywhere, for any reason. So why bother rubbing it in?
