That caused Don to let out a soft laugh.
"Us? Do you remember when we first met? I was practically trying to one up you while I was still in Junior High."

"I guess it would be better than working for LaRusso, but you guys are so grown up. So prim and proper. I don't think I'd fit in."

"Karate will always be a part of me, but Eagle Fang is more than that. Was. But Cobra Kai is a legacy, a franchise even. Just easier to go with the flow and hope I don't get swept away."

"Perhaps you can take it back again? I'd hate for you to lose that part of you."

"I really liked Eagle Fang. Maybe it didn't make sense, but it was mine. And yeah, okay, maybe it was just Cobra Kai without the history and the bloodshed, but is that so bad? But people want Cobra Kai."

"You are."
He simply states.
"You should be proud of your accomplishments."

"I won, fair and square, but it doesn't take away decades of being a loser. Being a champion meant everything, and now I've proved I was... I am... I dunno."

"Even after your Sekai Taikai win?"
He asks, slowly taking a seat by Noah's desk.

Just the thought of that dog is enough to almost make me sneeze.
"Huh? I'm still on top of the world, and waiting for the other boot to drop."

"If you're referring to Kai, I think he's more excited about the dog."
A light chuckle before Don lightly claps Johnny on the shoulder.
"What's new with you, Champ?"

"Guess it's been a beat?" #TimeIsWeird "High Kicks must be thrilled you're back."

"It's good to see you again."
