Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaBefore Robby eats the hot pepper he does a small prayer similar to one Daniel did in The Karate Kid Part II (1986) before he karate chops through some ice blocks at a bar.
- GoofsChozen correctly removes his shoes before stepping onto the mat, but he leaves the shoes so that the toes point towards the mat. A Japanese person would never remove their shoes this way. The correct method is to turn away from the building, or mat in this case, and remove your shoes whilst stepping backwards into the building/mat. It is considered impolite to leave one's shoes pointing towards the inside. Usually this would be done at the genkan or boundary, but in a western building at the edge of the mat or dojo proper.

Johnny Lawrence: We gotta shake the tree to get the apples.
Robby Keene: Or we could climb the tree ourselves.
Johnny Lawrence: What does that mean? What tree?
Robby Keene: The apple tree. You just said you wanted...

Featured review
Great characters and plot but some terrible writing bring it down
I think this episode manages to be action packed and emotional, its great all the different things they decided to do with the characters were pretty cool.
I just can't get behind a couple of the choices here. First the choice to have the two characters finding Miguel in Mexico in FBI shirts was simply moronic. I suppose some stupid decisions have always been in the certain persons character (vague to avoid spoilers) but come on this is really just beyond stupid it can get you killed.
Also I have to say I hate the writers decision with the Hot Pepper scene. There was an earlier scene where Terry explains away the cheating from Season 4 as it being only necessary. So there is a character eating hot peppers in a competition for money (it was only necessary to get a car) but it turns out he only pretended to eat the final most hot pepper. What is the moral ethic here for kids? Just cheat at everything to succeed? Even the good guys are cheating? The adult in the pair says "this was the most badass thing ever" (pretending to eat the pepper so the dude who ate the pepper for real loses). I just think this is terrible.
They even wrote it in a way where Karate training (mental training) was the key to succeed at first before the "surprise" of the cheat. If they had just left it that way it would have been so much better for everyone involved, the characters and the viewers its just astonishing. Maybe it pays off somewhere else.
Besides that this episode kicks a lot of ass with some very cool Karate sequences and a lot of heart and soul with all characters getting some time to shine.
