Episode 11

-How are you guys doing?
-We're okay.

Call me if you need anything.

Thanks.
Bruce� anything else you want?

All right. I'll just be in the kitchen.

So, what now? Huh? You'll just drink all night long?

You're not going to eat? Or speak with me?
Is that it?

I'm still upset.

If you hadn't stop me,
I'm sure I would have defeated him.

-No, you wouldn't.
-Why not?

Don't you understand?

Mister Yamamoto�
is a true Master and Karate expert.

Based on what I saw, his martials arts skills and
strength are superior. You wouldn't stand a chance!

That's not true

Bruce� I know you're still upset because you didn't
expect you would lose against Yamamoto this morning.

But you have a rare gift. Not everyone can be
a master at such a young age.

Yamamoto isn't the only one.

There are other professional martial artists
in America who can beat you!

I don't think so.

Bruce, it's been a while since we've seen each other.

I'm always aware about
what's been happening to you.

Sometimes I read in the papers about your heroic
deeds or your latest achievement in martial arts.

But they don't admire you.
They just publish those stories to sell more papers!

In your heart, you know you can easily beat Kimura...
That's no surprise

He's just a third Dan holder of Karate,
way below your Kung Fu skills.

But what was in the papers?

They reported that you couldn't find an equal here
in Seattle. They were exaggerating!

Yet you thought it was true! Huh!

Listen to me.

No matter how good you are�
there will always be someone better than you...

so learn to be humble!

Uncle Chao� did you come to Seattle,
just to give me a lecture?

Of course not.

The truth is� I come to Seattle every year
for the Asian Cultural Festival.

It's a great opportunity for me to earn money.
I sell Chinese Herbs at the festival.

Although I've been out of the Martial Arts
world for a few years now.

I still care about the people and other things in it.
I don't know why. I just can't help it.

Maybe because�once you've learned Kung Fu,
you can never live without it again.

But you must remember this, Bruce.

It's not going to be easy, if you just depend on Kung Fu,
to gain a firm footing here in America.

You just wait Uncle Chao.

I swear, someday�
I'll be able to defeat Yamamoto in a fight.

I will not stop� until I've done it.

Yes, you're right.

I believe someday, you'll defeat him.

But not today, not in the next few days!

Bruce, you had a close call earlier.

If I didn't stop you in time, you'd be in bed
nursing a few broken bones.

Or worse� you'd be in a hospital!

You silly boy, when that happens, all your years of
Kung Fu training would have been in vain!

Bruce...

It's not good for anyone to harbor so much anger
in his heart. Especially martial artists.

One should be round outside� but square inside.

�Round outside, square inside?�

What does it mean?

You study Philosophy, right?

Chinese Philosophy requires us to be just that.

To the world outside� we should be more respectful�

conservative, humble and gentle.
Never show your hurts and pains.

But inside ourselves� we must always be confident.

We must be firm and strong. We must never give up!

Bruce� Being strong and firm inside but humble
and gentle outside does not constitute lack of charater.

Rather it signifies a distinct quality of mind and feeling.

If you're too proud�
you'll only bring trouble onto yourself.

That's just hypocrisy. Chinese Style Hypocrisy!

Professor Kein warned me about that.

You don't reveal what's in your heart.

You always smile at everyone�

But inside your mind� you're plotting something
wicked and disgusting!

You're wrong! Let me tell you Bruce, it's not hypocrisy
and it's not just for us Chinese!

It's true for all races in this world,
American, African or even Asian!

I'm not telling you this to make you a dishonest
or a sly person.

I just want you to be a man with great self-restraint...

so you'll be able to realize all your dreams in life!

Bruce� Please, listen to me.

You're top priority now is not to fight Yamamoto
and try to win against him.

Let him have the honor of being ahead of you.
Be humble enough to accept that.

Then use this time to learn more and improve
your Kung Fu skills.

Take this chance to make yourself a better person.
Stop being immature!

You're not a child anymore!
Be a man and be resposible!

But I can't accept� losing that way to Yamamoto!

It's not too late to beat him,
even you have to waite ten years.

The important thing is, you beat him!

If you're too impatient...
you'll never amount to anything.

Alright, my friends! Let us celebrate!

Cheers� for Master Yamamoto's victory!

I thought Bruce Lee's got some powerful skills.

But his skills were nothing
compared to Master Yamamoto's expertise!

He couldn't even stand a single blow!

He didn't have a chance to fight back.

If not for the old man selling herbs...
Bruce Lee might be lying in a hospital right now.

Bruce Lee can never boast to be
the best in Seattle any longer!

The city of Seattle now belongs to Karate!

On the other hand, the skill of Bruce Lee
was quite vigorous and nimble.

And his boxing style is good to view and enjoy.

It was in China� where the "Art of War" was born.

Chinese people are good� at playing deceitful games.

I believe� Bruce Lee's failure today is probably
because he's not used to my style and technique.

Or maybe� he just wanted to test my strength.

I felt� Bruce Lee's punches.
They were strong and brutal.

It could even be deadly.
He's not a man without good skills.

From now on�
you must all work hard to improve your skills.

I'm sure he'll be back.
He won't rest until he wins.

Yes.

Master Yamamoto, we don't really care about Bruce Lee
because we know he's just a nobody.

Even if he promotes Chinese Kung Fu here in Seattle�

he will always come in second to us.

Come in... this way.

Sign up here.

Line up here.

Alona, it's you.

-Surprised I'm here?
-I never thought you'd come.

I didn't know it myself
that I'd come to join in your class.

-Uncle Chao!
-Bruce.

-Come in, please.
Okay.

Alright.

Actually, I registered yesterday evening.
Didn't your colleagues tell you about it?

I didn't know that. Maybe� they were busy.
They didn't have the time to tell me.

Well, come in.
Come and take a look.

It's okay. I'll just come back when class begins.

Alright. I'm glad you came.

Don't take it the wrong way,
I still don't like Kung Fu.

I signed up because I want to find out what charm
this Kung Fu possess that has fascinated you so much.

Once you've learned it...
You'll know soon enough..

Now I think I know why� I find you interesting.

I'm so pathetic.
You broke off with me yet I still want to see you.

I have to go.

Hi, come this way.

Who was that? You're girlfriend?

Ex-girlfriend. But she doesn't like Kung Fu.
And wants me to live in the Philippines.

-So, we broke up. Come in. Let's talk inside.
-Alright.

Ladies and gentlemen, here we have the latest
equipment to help train your strength and resilience.

Okay� this way please.

These equipment helps build up your arm muscles.

Bruce� As of now,
we have eighteen students registered.

Aside from them, your former classmates and half
of the Seattle police force want to register, too.

Even Jesse's friends
would also like to sign up for our class.

But� his friends want us to give them discounts.

But if we give them discounts�
it wouldn't be fair to the others.

Besides, what they'll learn here
is authentic Chinese Kung Fu.

So, we can't lower our fees.

If this continues, this place won't be big enough,
to hold so many students.

I understand. This basement can accommodate
thirty students.

We mustn't take in more than that.

But what if there are more people
who wants to register?

Let's give them a test then.

What test?

Let's ask them to run� for 10 kilometers.

Whoever passes will be admitted.
And whoever gives up� will be excluded.

-Okay. We'll do it that way.
-Good. Let's do it.

Congratulations, Bruce!
I'm impressed. Your opening was a success.

I never expected this to happen.

Uncle Chao, thank you.

Bruce� in just a few years you were able to
open your own Kung Fu house.

I really am so proud of what you've achieved.

You must thank your father for making
a wise decision of sending you here to America.

Had you stayed in Hong Kong,
you would probably be involved in a lot troubles.

You're right.

From a mischievous little boy who likes to fight
all the time� you've turned into today's Bruce Lee.

Do you know why you were able to
make that big change?

It's because of life. You've taught me if you live
alone in a strange country...

you have no one else to depend on�
except your own abilities.

That's what I've wanted you to learn!

Only when you know yourself clearly�
will you be able to surpass yourself.

If I were a few years younger�
I would have stayed here to help you for sure.

Why don't you do that then?
Stop selling Chinese herbs and help me instead.

Actually, I've been thinking about it. We'll help
each other. You and auntie can live here in Seattle.

Maybe some other time. Your aunt is in poor health.
She can't travel yet and I can't leave her for a long time.

All right, Xiao Long. I have to go.
Work hard and do a good job.

Don't worry. I'll come here and visit you more often.

-Let me take you to the bus stop.
- You don't have to.

You still have lots of things to do.
Make sure to run this Kung Fu house well.

-Goodbye.
-Goodbye.

-Uncle� Let me see you off.
-You don't have too.

-Don't forget to write to me often.
-I will, Uncle Chao.

I really don't want you to leave yet.

-Please...
-Bruce, I don't want to say goodbye either.

Goodbye.

Master Chao!

Oh� Kimura! I'm so happy.

Bruce told me he was able to open this nice Kung Fu
house because of your help.

Bruce Lee is my teacher.
It's an honor and a privilege to help him.

Don't say that!
We're actually each other's teacher.

You know what, because you have a friend like Kimura,
I don't have to worry anymore.

-Alright� take care.
-You too.

One. Two.

One. Two.

One. Two.

Kimura� These past few days, I feel as if�
the devil is following me.

The devil? Is it Yamamoto?

Yeah.

He's a famous martial artist in Japan and in America.

He pays great attention to his training.

He has opened a lot of schools here in the US.

He seldom competes with others.

He prefers to teach than to fight.

I don't understand. How was he able to
maintain such a solid foundation?

I think� it has something to do with the Iron Man.

Iron man? What is it?

I've heard about it but I've never seen it myself.

One of his students told me that�
he beats down the Iron Man everyday�

which is twice his size and made of pig iron.

Really? That is how he trains himself?

Good. I think I must meet with Mr. Yamamoto again.

Bruce� don't make any more troubles.

He did not come here� to beat you.

He just wants to show everyone�
that Seattle belongs to Karate.

I don't care about that.

I need to see him again.

I'll make him fall flat on his face.

I've said that�
no one in Seattle can compete with me.

No one, Kimura.

Whoever he is, I'll defeat him.

Bruce� don't rush into this.

Don't try to go to his place.

He has already defeated you�
he won't bother with you anymore.

I don't believe that.
I must see him now.

Bruce� please don't be stubborn.

Kimura�
I will never claim, to be the number one fighter

But then, I'll never admit to being number two!

So I must go and see Yamamoto,
and have a rematch with him.

I will defeat him!

No, Bruce. You'll only hurt yourself.

Why did you kick the door?
You're so uncivilized!

Where's your master? Tell him to come out.

-What do you want?
-I'd like to practice with him.

-You're not afraid to die?
-I won't be here if I was.

Mr. Bruce Lee, how dare you come to my house�
without proper invitation.

You disrespect me.

I'm sorry about that.
But if you're man enough...

you wouldn't let your house dogs stop me from
coming here to speak with you.

-What do you want from me?
-I want to practice with you.

Why... you...

-You dare to challenge me again?

-Sure! Why not?
-You don't know when to give up, do you?

-We'll just exchange skills.
-You just use a soft word to mean the same thing.

Since you saw how I train. This is the Iron Man...

I'll accept your challenge on one condition.
You have to defeat Iron Man in a fight first.

Do not insult me!

If you can make him fall,
I'll agree to fight with you.

I will exchange skills or knowledge with you�
or whatever else you may want to call it.

But if you fail� don't come back here again.

I'll hold onto your words!

A true martial artist,
always keeps his promises.

Alright, Chinaman. See what I mean?

You may have made a name for yourself in your
small village and in Seattle� but that's just it.

you may have defeated Kimura,
a third Dan Karate holder.

Yet, you dare to brag
that no one in Seattle can defeat you?

You can't even beat a dumb iron warrior?

Come on. Try your One-Inch fist on him.

Bruce Lee�
Just go back to college and study hard.

Never practice your Kung Fu in front of me again.

You must transfer to another state�
if you want to remain a martial artist.

There is no place for you here in Seattle!

I don't want this kind of incident
to happen again. Do you understand?

Yes.

Bruce� what happened? Did you see Yamamoto?

Yes. I practice with a Woodman everyday.

But you know what�
He practices with an Iron Man.

I must change� my way of fighting.

I need to create my own Kung Fu!

Bruce, please� stop acting like a child.

Because if you do� you'll get into more trouble.

Didn't you hear me?
Change this Woodman to Iron Man.

As big as Yamamoto's Iron man!

Now, go!

Bruce�
You don't fight professionally to make a living.

I decided to become your student
because unlike most martial artist...

you have a deeper understanding of martial arts.

I believe that people who uses only their physical
powers to fight, shouldn't be called martial artists.

I hope you'll heed my advice.
Don't compare yourself to others.

Remember what Professor Kein said to you.

He said that, �you only have one rival in this world�
and that is, yourself.�

I believe in you, Bruce.
You will become a true martial artist.

So you shouldn't be upset
because one man has defeated you.

You said earlier, you want to create your own
Kung Fu to improve your skills� that's great.

Maybe you should� talk to Professor Kein and
discuss with him about this new style in your mind.

Ask for his help. Do that Bruce.
Focus your mind instead� on this new style.

You're right. But before that,
I must erase and wash out the shame�

and beat down Yamamoto first.

Alright. I'll order an Iron Man for you, Bruce.

-Bruce Lee...You again?
-Am I not welcome here?

You're so disrespectful!

I know� Looks like you need another beating.

Don't worry, I'll give you one!

Bruce Lee! How dare you come in here again!

I didn't mean to� watch while you train.

I came here� to deliver this to you.

No. You're not eligible to fight.

Yes, I am.

Then send your letter through the Martial Arts Institute.

I don't want any legal problems
in case I beat you to death.

Well� why don't we just follow
the basic combat rules of fighting?

You really deserve a good beating.

I've been waiting a long time for you to say that.

Get ready.

Bruce!

Bruce!

Bruce!

Where's Bruce?

Where would he go?

Wasn't he in school today?

No. I went to his class but he wasn't there.

Oh no. I'm afraid� he's at Yamamoto's place.

He's there again? Why would he go there?
Does he want to die?

Tell me, why does he keep on going there?

That's how he is.
Let's go� let's find him.

Leave! Don't ever come back!

Bruce!

Are you okay?

Promise me you'll never come here again.

Bruce� you need to rest.

-I'm not sleepy, Kimura.
-Still thinking of Yamamoto?

I'm sorry, but I don't understand.

Why do you always go to his place
only to be beaten up?

What's your reason?

To be honest� I intended to get beat up.

You did? But why?

If I don't compete�
with various masters of martial arts...

how can I learn about their
excellent ways of fighting?

Don't worry, Kimura.

I've figured out�
the secret of Yamamoto's fighting style.

It won't be long now� I'll be able to defeat him.

Bruce� I don't want you to get hurt again.

As of now, we have lots of students.
You have other duties and responsibilities.

You can't just� focus your mind on one thing.

Yes, Kimura. You're right.

I am stuck to this one thing.

I've been thinking about it for a long time.
I'll set up my own style.

Your own style?

That's right. My own Kung Fu.

An exclusive fighting style�
different from the rest of the world.

But it's not easy, Bruce.

You know what� when I was just a kid...

The first fighting style I've learned is the Mantis Style.

Then came the Shao Lin, then Hong Fist,
I've learned it all from Uncle Chao.

Afterwards� I learned Yong Chuan Chuan or
Spring Shadowboxing from Master Ye.

I felt at that time that Yong Chun Chuan
was the best fighting style.

Then when I joined the western boxing team�
I learned something useful, as well.

And now,
I've figured out some of Karate's fighting style.

Oh� is that it?
You wanted to learn Yamamoto's fighting style?

No wonder you always go to his place.

That's right.

Bit by bit, I can see that each style has its own
advantage and disadvantages�

which can be learned and utilized.

Even with my cha-cha training� I have learned
something which I can use for my own style.

For now, I haven't learned enough
boxing techniques.

But I believe I can make up for what I lack
through my study and research.

I can improve Yong Chun Chuan.
I can make it more practical and useful.

You'll improve� Yong Chun Chuan?

Yes.

You see� I've thought about it.
I'll make Kung Fu more simple and practical.

I'll eliminate those� fancy and unpractical stuff.

But we'll leave� everything that's useful.

I will bring back the original and true essence of Kung Fu.

That is, combat. I will spread the art of
straightforward offense and defense.

But Bruce, as I've said,
it's not easy to eastablish a new way of martial arts.

I know.

I also know that�
I need to learn more fighting styles.

I have to understand�
the essences of other martial arts other styles.

I have to analyze, compare and do research on them.

It's the only way I can achieve my goals
and realize my dreams.

So I need to compete� with different masters.

Only then will I know which is practical and simple
and which is not.

I didn't realize�
you have a big plan in your mind.

If Yong Chun Chuan has certain advantages�
it also has some disadvantages, as well.

I want to combine the hand techniques
and footwork of Jujitsu with Yong Chun Chuan.

I'll also integrate some Western boxing footwork
into it.

When I have successfully done it� I'll be able to
put in the essences of other fighting styles.

I will eliminate those complicated
yet unpractical moves in fighting.

Hm� A new boxing style.
A novel idea.

-Professor Kein�
-Hmm?

Is there a problem with my methodology?

I see no problem with it. But I'm telling you Bruce,
you've chosen a very difficult path.

Nevertheless, I'm happy with your progress.

Remember when you told me you were bored
for not having an equal here in Seattle?

I told you that you should defeat yourself, because
the biggest enemy one can have is one's self.

Now I feel you've changed your views.

You're right, Sir. I was like, ahm� like a frog in a well
when I made those na�ve and irresponsible statements.

I never realized that the world is tremendously big.

So, I needed to get out of the well because
I was getting comfortable in it.

After Yamamoto defeated me, I became conscious of the fact that I must improve.

And I can only do that by competing with myself.

So I continue to learn and improve every day�
and to push myself to the limit.

When the day comes it will be easy and natural
for me to defeat another fighter.

Bruce. I'm so happy to hear you say those words.

I think, this new style of fighting you want to create
will set the trend in the world of martial arts.

But I still have a lot of theoretical questions.

Oh you do? It's okay.
Ah� have a seat.

Professor Kein� I am so confused nowadays.

Oh� No, Bruce. You just think you're confused
because you've developed a new fighting style.

Everything is new� the concept, philosophy,
even the moves.

I have a strong feeling that you've discovered
the core issue of martial arts.

Now� you are able to use your enemy's
attacking power to make a counterattack.

As for the �New Fist' style,
you've put in various styles to use in it.

Am I right?
Are you listening?

Ah� actually,
it was just my intuition to use that kind of approach.

Then that would mean
you have a very good intuition.

You're simply a genius
when it comes to martial arts.

No, Sir. I'm not a genius. Please don't say that.

That's just Chinese Style humility again.

No, Sir. It's just that, ah�
I dare not call myself a genius.

-I'm just diligent.
-No. Bruce.

You are a genius. You can't deny that to yourself.

Do you know how the mind of a genius works?

A genius can see logic at the subconscious level.

What a genius does is the embodiment�
of his subconsciousness.

Logical subconsciousness?
I don't understand it.

I'll explain it to you.

When a genius is doing something, he normally
doesn't think too much about it.

But Professor� how can I do something
without thinking about it.

Listen, Bruce. What a genius does is mostly
spontaneous, spur of the moment,

no distinctive mark of craftmanship.

Most of the time, they make logical decisions about
their lives and careers in a subconscious way.

Therefore, they can reach a high level of
intelligence that ordinary people can't do.

It's because their logical subconsciousness
is not distorted.

Ah� So, Sir, what do you think of my new style�

based on your philosophical view.
Would you tell me?

I just did.
I told you how to understand the word �new'.

Bruce, let me make it clear.

You must establish your new fighting style
based on the principles of Chinese Philosophy.

Professor Kein, in China�
there are many books on Philosophy.

But the concepts and theories
differ from each other.

So, in my case, which school of Philosophy
do you think I can use as I guide for my research?

Which philosophy do you think is suitable for my
martial arts?

The essence of your new style
is Chinese martial arts.

Both Confucianism and Taoism have had
tremendous influences on Chinese Kung Fu.

You may also borrow and draw strongpoints
from other schools of thought...

and graft them onto the tree of
Chinese Kung Fu Theory.

Confucianism values harmony and moderation.

While Taoism pays attention
to dialectics and perception.

I think, if you aim directly at the center of Kung Fu,
you'll be able to simplify those complicated theories.

Simplify?
How can I simplify those complicated theories?

Based on your thesis, you've already simplified it.
You may not have expressed it clearly yet.

Alright. I'll ask you a question.

What's the simplest issue among
the complicated martial arts theories?

Don't over-analyze it, just answer the question.

Off the top of your head, what comes to mind
when I asked you that question.

Ah, It's � attack� and defend.

Ah... See? You're a genius.

It's this simple. You used a plain Tai Chi diagram
to simplify what you wanted to say.

The design of the Tai Chi diagram
is so uncomplicated�

but it involves a lot of our major concerns
about the world.

After reading your paper,
I realized your thoughts about martial arts Theory.

It is like this simple diagram� clear and easy.

Professor Kein, you mean Yin and Yang.

It's simple yet complicated.
Complicated yet simple.

That's right Bruce.
Apply it to your theory.

Simplify the complicated.
Makes it clear and simple.

Yang represents offense
while Yin represent defense.

When Yang is on top, Yin has to come down
and vice-cersa. Am I right?

What you said is true.

Just like this Yin and Yang. If there's a Yin,
there's a Yang. If there an offense, there is defense.

The never-ending cycle of this two, is the
continuous exchange of Yin and Yang.

Now Bruce, I believe your thesis has opened
a lot questions for you because theoretically...

you can't explain it yet.

You need to understand the basic principles
of Chinese Philosophy. Hm?

I think still need to further study
the elements inside that diagram.

That's right Bruce.
Don't complicate s simple problem.

People who do that are usually called Philosophers.

Sad, isn't it?

A simple thing becomes too difficult to understand
when it passes through the hands of a Philosopher.

It gets so complicated that in the end
they couldn't understand it themselves.

But a true wise man, a true genius, would simplify
a very complicated thing.

Turn it to it's simplest form.

Chinese beliefs are deep and profound
because of ancient Chinese philosophers...

simplified the most complicated concepts
in the world.

Like the concept of Yin and Yang, the term Tao,
they made it simple and easy to understand.

Now you, Bruce, you've also simplified a lot of
complicated martial arts theories...

to two words, attack and defend.

Professor Kein, my biggest dream now
is to establish my own Kung Fu House...

to promote my new style of martial arts
and introduce Chinese Kung Fu to the whole world.

Oh, so you want to establish
your own Kung Fu House? That's great.

In that case, Bruce�
you don't have to come to class.

Just do your job well
and use your time to improve your Kung Fu.

Use all of your time to try to better understand
these two words� Attack� and Defend.

Or you might even say Yin and Yang.

I believe in you. I believe you'll do a great job.

Thank you, Professor Kein.
