Johnny stood in the office door, looking out at the room full of studens who talked among themselves. Miguel and Aisha were near the front actually practicing punches. Demetri and Eli stood near the middle of the crowd. "I don't know why I let you talk me into this. It's like extra gym class for no reason." Demetri told the other boy. Eli had his hands in front of him, he looked very timid. "Let's just give it a chance. You saw the fight, Miguel kicked ass." He replied to Demetri as Johnny walked out. "Okay today we begin.." He started but trailed off, no one was paying him any attention.  "Quite!" He called, everyone falling silent and looking over at the man. "Everyone face front."

The class started to get into order, facing Johnny. Miguel and Aisha in the front line. Johnny walked through the group, looking at them, like a wolf in a herd of sheep. He glanced at Demetri's shirt, it was green with the pi symbol. "Nice shirt." He said. Demetri smiled some "Thanks." Johnny continued walking at his slow pace.  "I'm kidding it sucks." He said very plainly. He stopped in front of a slightly heavy boy with long hair. The boy gave him a smile. "Word of advice. If you got shit for teeth don't smile." The smile quickly fell as he looked down. Johnny looked at a small boy as he kept walking. "When I walk around this room is don't see Cobra Kai material. I see losers, nerds and a fat kid wearing a funny hat with his tits popping out." Said kid lowered his head. "But in my short time as a Sensei I have seen miracles." He looked over at Miguel and Aisha. Miguel smiled some. "So there might be hope for you yet, but first I need to see where you're at. Fall in!"

All the students looked at each other in confusion. "That means line up," Johnny said. The kids started to form two lines one behind  Miguel and the other behind Aisha. "No not a line. Like lines." Demetri looked over at Johnny. "Like rows?" The boy asked. Johnny covered his face with his hands. "Oh my God." He groaned some.

Johnny was walking the rows. "Fighting positions. Jab punch." He said, one of the smaller boys punching. "Not until I say so." Johnny then called it, the students following his instructions. He fixed the ones position, helping him out. Johnny had reached the front of the class. "Hey lip." He said. Eli looked up at him. "Yeah you. The one with the freaky lip. Who do you think I'm talking to?" Eli turned his eyes down, "Excuse me Mr. Lawrence." Demetri started but was cut off by Aisha. "Sensei Lawrence." She corrected, looking back at him, her voice loud and strong. Demetri looked at her. "Okay..you shouldn't make fun of someone's physical appearance." He finished, looking back at Johnny. "Oh really?" The man asked with a small smirk on his face. "So I'm not supposed to mention his lip at all?" Demetri had a confused look on his face. "Well yeah."

"That might be what they teach you in school but in the real world you can't expect people to do what they are supposed to." Johnny said. "You hear that lip? If you can't handle someone making fun of you how are you going to handle a elbow to the teeth?" Demetri answered instead like he usually did when someone talked to Eli. "By calling the police." He said in a duh tone. Eli looked over at his friend. "Knock it off." Miguel said in a low tone. "Why? Doesn't he know that the Nazis lost the war. Why should I be afraid of him? Because he has a snake on his wall?" Demetri spoke loudly, gesturing at the Cobra Kai logo. "It's not like he's a teacher who can give you  bad grade. We're paying him, he works for us. It's not like he can actually hurt us." He looked around at the others unaware that Johnny was slowly walking towards him. "Oh shit." Miguel whispered.

The other students moved to form a wide circle around Johnny and Demetri, the younger boy looking at the others before looking at Johnny. "You done? Strike me." Johnny said. "Go ahead strike me right here." He pointed at his nose. Demetri got into the fighting position. He went to punch him but Johnny easily knocked his hand out of the way. "Harder." He said, Demetri taking a deep frustrated breath as he moved back into position. Demetri went to punch him  again, Johnny knocked his hand away much harder then last. "Is that all you got princess?" He asked Demetri. Demetri looked at bit upset as he punched again, the time Johnny flipping him to where he landed on his back hard. Johnny stood up and pointed a finger around at the others. "Let that he a lesson to all of you."

At Larusso's auto Robby was putting stickers on the car windows with the information and Prices as well as checking off the list he had. He did the simple jobs like restocking and bring the mechanics the parts they need to fix the car. Anoush walked over after talking to Daniel, he took one of the cups of popcorn Robby just filled up and ate a piece. "Needs more salt." He told the younger boy. "Hey when do you think I'll get one of those shirts with my name on it?" Robby asked. "Oh you like the shirts?" He said as Louie walked up and tasted the popcorn. "Has to much salt." He said, nose wrinkling. Anoush looked over at Louie. "He wants a personalized shirt."
"Yeah we have to get you one. Means your part of the team. What else do you need? Business cards, mugs, monogrammed cuff links?" Louie asked in a teasing tone. Robby looked at them "Alright I get it." Louie looked at him as Anoush walked away . "Relax kid were just joking, I get it. I use to be the new guy, you just want to take action, get noticed." He said. "Here's what you have to do every Wednesday someone has to rotate the cars, keep the inventory fresh. See that porch 11 there. Nice right? Well boss has been wanting to move it up towards the window. Think you can handle that?" Louie asked, holding a key in his hand. "Sure." Robby nods.

It was chemistry, today they would be dissecting fetal pigs. Sam walked in, everyone started to laugh at her because of the rumors Kyler started about her.  "Alright get into your group." The teacher told them. Sam walked up to his desk, saying how her partner was absent. "This little piggy needs a group who will take her in?" He surveyed the room. "Don't you all speak at once," finally Miguel raised his hand. "We'll take her." She smiled walking over and putting her bag on the table, on the other side of Miguel. "Thanks. I'm going to grab a chair." She smiled at him, walking away.

Robby started the car. "Hey what the hell. Starting a car in a crowded show room? What's the matter with you?!" Daniel asked, Robby got out of the car and looked over at Louie who was trying not to laugh. "Screw this." Robby said and started walking away, taking the company shirt off as he walked. Daniel gave Louie a look when he saw him trying not to laugh and followed Robby out. "Hey! Hey!" Daniel called, jogging after him. He out his hand on Robby's shoulder, the younger boy turning, fists raised like he was ready to fight. "Woah hey ease up I surrender." Daniel said with a half smile on his face. "You don't have to fire me . I quit." Robby said in a defensive voice, walking away . "Hey Robby. It's Robby right? Come back here.  You're gonna break your thumb like that." Daniel told him after he walked back over. "What?" Robby asked with some confusion leaking into his voice. "Make a fist. If your gonna lunch your boss you need to make a nice tight fist, your thumb ticked under, squeezing your fingers, arm straight out. You see?" Daniel said, arm outstretched, fist made. He then put his hand up like he was waiting for a high five. "Go ahead." Daniel nodded to his hand. Robby punched his hand. "Wow, see there we go." Daniel smiled, shaking his hand some.  "Sorry about calling you out inside, that's on me. Your not the only one here who has a temper." Robby looked confused. "Okay..thanks." He gave a slight nod of his head. "So are you from around here, graduate from All Valley?" Daniel asked. Robby shook his head. "No I'm from North hills..not as nice as this." Robby answered, relaxing slightly. "Well I was from Reseda and before that Newark, new Jersey so I know about not so nice." Robby looked shocked. "Really? I thought your family was from money." Daniel shook his hand and gave him a smile. "I guess not everything is what it looks like. I'm going to head inside and give the 'I'm sorry you almost got killed sales event' see you in a minute?" Robby nods, Daniel smiled and walked inside

The three were working on dissecting the pig. Sam looked at Miguel. "Thanks for helping me out." She gave him a smile, "Oh it's not like there was another group." He tried to play off. "I mean with the fight." She chuckled. The two starting to talk quietly.

Johnny walked out. "Everyone fall in." A lot less people were in there. "Where is everyone? Crater face, nose ring, slingshot?" He asked. Miguel looked over at him. "They quit Sensei." Johnny looked over at Miguel. "Really? I mean good. That was a test to see who the quiters are. Not you guys, you could be home playing your Icomputers, video games and eating candy. Instead your here, doing push ups and learning how to fight. Lip." He said pointing into the crowd. "Even Lip is tougher then those guys." Eli looked up shocked. "He's no quiter."

"Can you please not call me that." Eli said in his soft voice. "What?" Johnny asked, looking over at him. "I said can you please not call me that." He said as bit louder. Miguel moved towards  Johnny. "I'll warm them up Sensei." He said but Johnny raised a hand. "No. I think Lip has something he wants to say. So Lip speak up or is your tongue messed up to? Are you one of those challenged kids?" Johnny asked, walking up to him. Eli glanced between Johnny and the ground. "The doctor said I could be on the spectrum." Eli mumbled. "I don't know what that means but get off it pronto. And if you didn't want to be called lip then don't have a weird lip. Can't you get surgery for that?"

"I was born with a cleft lip, this is the scar from the surgery." Johnny looked at him. "So it was worse before? If this is the after picture I would sue." Eli looked down. "Can we change topic?" Johnny remained in front if him. "You don't think I want to? It's hard when it's right in front of you. If you want to be more then a Nerd with a scar on his lip then you need to flip the script okay? Get a face tattoo or gouge your eye out, we'll call you patch. Don't do that you'll still look like a freak." Johnny said as he turned and started to walk away. Eli looked at him before walking out if the dojo. "Really another quitter?"

After class Miguel knocked on the door, Johnny was opening a beer. "Go away there's no more classes today." He said as he turned before seeing Miguel. "Did you have to be so hard on them?" Miguel asked. "Oh come on Diaz their all losers." Johnny replied as he took a sip of his beer. "Some of those losers are my friends. And your students." Miguel said as Johnny sat down. "You wanted a full dojo now you've got one."
"Not full like that." Johnny looked at him. "Fine. Maybe I'm a loser too." Miguel said with a sigh. Johnny sat his beer on the desk. "Come on. Are you going to cry now too?" Miguel shook his head. "No..it's just. You have no idea what it's like to be us. I'll see you tomorrow." He sighed as he walked out, leaving Johnny at the desk.

Robby was working on restocking the napkins in the coffee table when Amanda and Louie walked over. "Oh you don't have to do that Robby. Louie here will be taking over your jobs for a few days." She said looking over at the man. Louie sighed. "I'm sorry for what I did, it was brought to my attention that my actions were unprofessional." He sighed. Robby looked at him, slightly confused. "Okay. Thanks." Amanda then grabbed something off of Louie's shoulder. "And we have something for you."  She showed him a shirt with his name on it. He smiled some. "It's office. You've earned it." She put it over his shoulder.

Johnny walked out into the dojo and looked over his students. "More have left Sensei." Miguel told him as he walked past him. "A bunch of p**sies." Aisha added in, much louder then Miguel. "No its my fault." Johnny said as he paced in front of them. "Since you've joined Cobra Kai I've been hard on you. Called you names, humiliated you. Some of you I hit, and for that. I don't apologize. Cobra Kai is about strength. If you're not strong on the inside you can't be strong on the outside. Right now you are all weak, and I know that. Because I used to be you. I have no friends, I was the weird kid." Johnny gestured to a small blonde boy with glasses. "But not that weird I still hooked up with babes and stuff. The point is I wasn't always this badass Sensei you see today. Cause like a cobra I had to shed my loser skin to find my true power and so will you." Johnny had stopped pacing, standing in the middle.

The door opened and a boy with a blue Mohawk walked in. "Welcome to Cobra Kai." Johnny said, not paying him much attention, Miguel was staring at him. "Eli what happened?" Eli gave him a smirk. "I'm flipping the script." He said in a strong voice, not at all like how he usually talked. Johnny gave him a confused and shocked look as he walked over. "Wait. Are you the kid with the lip? Nice cut bro. See it doesn't matter if you're a loser or a nerd or a freak. All that matters is that you become badass. Hawk fall in." Eli smirked slightly as he took off his shoes and joined the front row. "Fear doesn't exist in this dojo does it?" Johnny asked. "No Sensei." Eli replied, looking straight ahead at Johnny. Johnny started to walk down the line. "Pain doesn't exist in this dojo does it?"
"No Sensei." This time it was Aisha that answered him with a slight shake of her head. "Defeat doesn't exist in this dojo does it?" He asked looking at Miguel. "No Sensei." Johnny turned, facing the mirror. "Alright class are you ready to learn the way of the fist?"
"Yes Sensei!" The whole class said as one
