"this isn't..." "Stop!" " We're trying to help." " By breaking in?" "We're chasing him." "The guy who says he's Danny Rand?" " He escaped from a mental..." " There's nobody here but me." "And I can take care of myself." " If he does try to contact you..." " That'd be a mistake." "I want nothing to do with anything Rand." "As you can see." " Call us." " Get out." "uh... they broke the lock." "I'll send a bill." "Pretty sure they can cover it." "I promise." "Are the cops coming by?" "I haven't broken any laws." "I'm putting myself on the line here." "And I don't like it." "There won't be any more trouble." "The third tenet of the Bushido code is mercy." "But even that has its limits." "Don't be here in the morning." "Dad?" "Dad." "You caught me sleeping." "I can come back." "no." "I can't help but doze off." "I'm sure we'll find Danny within the hour." "And it's not like he's all that sophisticated." "Make sure to pay for the door repair at the hospital." "And I don't want anyone talking." "what about the pier deal?" "Patel?" "um... he's not responding to our offers." "He said he's not interested in selling." " I don't think he's gonna budge." " Add 10%." "Okay." "But we're already a million over the appraised value." "you don't need to know that." "And I want you to put Joy onto Patel." "She'll be able to close it." "I can handle this." "Doesn't it occur to you that I'm doing this all for you?" "That I work day and night so I can hand you something that's successful?" "because I want you to succeed?" "I guess." "You guess?" " I believe you." " Really?" "Because it doesn't seem that way when you directly disobey an order. and you tried to have him killed." "You don't understand that..." "Ward." "Can't you see that?" "but to come to us." "keep him safe... until I decide what to do with him." "Do I need to spell it out any further?" "I got it." "I..." "I'll take care of all of it." "and I'm gonna make you a great man." "Just cooperate." "I get it." "Ward." "I love you so much." "I don't know what he's doing here." "Hey!" "Hey!" "Thought I was pretty clear." "Very clear." "Then why aren't you gone?" "I'm worried for your safety." "Please." "I don't need you to protect me." "Are you sure?" "Because the fat one who smelled like toe fungus" " landed a blow." " And paid the price." "Still... he never should have gotten that close." "um..." "You mean like this?" "and not external strength." "So it's not necessary to use charging momentum." "Which lowers the risk of moving in." "You're working too hard." "Too much external force." "It's internal force you want to master." "And you should master silence." "Leopard Punch." "all this power derives from the harnessing of inner force." "Your chi can be focused and brought into the fight to overcome any obstacle." "Amazing." "I love it." "Thanks for showing me." "What?" "Come on." "Really?" "Really." "We were having fun." "we were." "But it doesn't change anything." "You can't be here." "What if I pay your rent?" "huh?" "I'll just stay for a week." "You're an escaped mental patient who can't even afford a haircut." "I just haven't gotten around to it." "I'm Danny Rand!" "Like you see on the building." "so..." "I'll have all this solved by Friday." "Door included." "Then..." "Then I can pay you an entire year's rent." "How does that sound?" " Friday?" " Yeah." "Come on." "whatever." "But you sleep in that corner." "And you don't go anywhere near the students." "And... use the bathroom at Starbucks." "Okay." "You're the boss." "And it might help if you took a shower." "Soon. we're gonna have a problem." "even if it is true." "okay?" "Wouldn't it just be easier to accommodate him?" "Do you really want to negotiate with somebody who clearly has mental problems?" "but we have to do the right thing here." "We are doing the right thing." "exactly? efficient and benefit both sides." "Trust me." "we can talk about it." "I have something else that needs your attention." "The pier deal and Raj Patel." "right?" "Why do we care about that crappy pier?" "Just... please?" "You used to come to my room when we were kids and ask me to do your homework with that same line." "And I passed calculus because of it." "I don't see the problem." "Just send me the goddamned files." "Thank you." "You know... this would have been romantic." "you wouldn't have drugged me and sent me to a mental hospital." "Fair enough." "We're friends." "Can't we start acting like it?" "So you came with a peace offering of... oranges and flowers?" "uh..." "it's a Buddhist tradition." "It's meant to remind you of our bond." "Kind of like the MM's." "what happened to you?" "Why are you back here?" "It's complicated." "people freak out." "you're the only link to a life that I had." "It kept me going under very difficult circumstances." "but..." " Yeah." "It's all I got." "it doesn't sound ridiculous." "I was 13 when Dad died." "And I still hadn't quite gotten over you and your family." "I was lost." "I..." "I didn't care about anything." "I was just going through the motions." "But I had this..." "I had this vision... this dream... that kept happening over and over." " I was a kid..." " back at school... just... standing by the fence waiting for me." "and he'd take my hand just as I passed the gate." "And then the dream would end." "But his smile..." "I must have had that dream a hundred times." "too." "When?" "In the hospital." "I..." "I thought he was a hungry ghost." "The people from where I'm from believe these ghosts... wander because they've been neglected by their family." "Danny... no." "I know." "It sounds weird." "The drugs they had me on were intense." "Yeah?" "Huh." "But it even smelled like him." "right?" "Marc Jacobs." "You mind if we go inside?" "Yeah." "That's cool." "Danny." "Okay." "I was left with a huge responsibility." "and... it's my job to keep it healthy and vital." "This is our offer for your shares." "I think it's quite generous." "Hundred million dollars?" "but I got him to go higher." "Just think of all you could do with that." "I have to change my name?" "The world already thinks Danny Rand is dead." "Let's just leave it that way." "You can pick a name you love." "You can start all over." "It is gonna be great." "What happened to you?" " Danny..." " Is this how you treat family?" "it is." "the generosity of this offer speaks for itself." "but Ward and I worked for this money." "while you were off doing... whatever you were doing." "So... don't turn your nose up..." "Danny..." "Hey!" "Danny..." "So you're gonna be the guy who walks away from $100 million?" "It's not about money." "I thought you understood." "Danny." "This is how it works!" "I've been meaning to ask... what's this?" "You should see the other guy." "no." "uh..." "I got this at the club." "Darryl... please." "sensei." "I got my moms and two brothers." "You think I could cover that with what I make pushing a broom?" "but those private fights are illegal. you want to bust me for making a dollar fighting?" "Darryl." "they ask about character as well as skill." "I want to be able to give you the highest recommendation." "that's all in the future." "I have to live today." "You dishonor yourself when you fight for money." "There's more at stake here than just your bills." "Excuse me." "Hey." "Are you the one who takes care of these?" "The gravestones?" "the family takes care of those." "What if everyone in the family's dead?" "man." "I just cut the grass." "But you could ask in the office." "Okay." "Thanks." "wait." "I said step away from me." "it's Danny Rand." "right?" " No." "Come on." "You were an intern in the legal department in my dad's office?" "You called his secretary Margaret a hatchet-faced bitch." "I was standing right there." "You gave me five bucks to keep quiet." "Where was my office?" "Um... you didn't have one." "They put you in the copy room." "My desk?" "Uh... it was a folding table. it was..." "it was too uneven." "Yeah?" "I went to your funeral." "Yeah." "I've been handling the estate since the crash." "That includes making sure that the graves are tended." "Thank you." "The least I could do." "Your father gave me my first job." "He always wanted Rand to be something good in the world." "I'm guessing you're not a fan of the Meachums?" "We have a very complicated relationship." "so..." "That's totally understandable." "They don't play well with others." "We need to dig up every shred of physical evidence we can find to prove your identity." "Was I wrong?" "To turn down $100 million?" "other than coming to me." "Danny." "Not millions." "It seems like that's all anyone wants to talk about." "Because it's the only language that they speak." "And it is important that you learn to understand it if you want to win." "They're supposed to be my friends. but I cannot help you make friends." "Okay." "so... what's it gonna cost me?" "Nothing." "my firm is on permanent retainer for Rand." "Deal?" "Deal." "We have a suite set up for occasions like this." "I need you to lay low... and I need you to keep from drawing any attention to yourself." "uh..." "I'm staying at the Chikara." "Is that in Brooklyn?" "The new place with the glass floor?" "it's a... it's a dojo." " Has plastic mats." " Ah." "Do you have any money for some new clothes?" "Because this homeless hipster thing isn't working for you." "Why is everyone on at me about how I look?" "It's New York City." "It matters." "If this is too much for you... you've got your look." "stick-up-your-ass thing." "confidence builder." "I can handle Patel by myself." "Sit this one out." "Not a chance." "Too important." "but you cannot be a drag tonight." "We're doing something unusual and I can't have you screwing it up." "Am I that big a problem?" "You've got a nice smile." "Use it." "Just as an experiment maybe." "Hmm." "Raj!" " Figured there's no time to waste." " Exactly." "Hmm." "Man after my own heart." "Thank you." "Let me pour this." " Thank you." " Ward?" "what's on the agenda?" "A night you will never forget." "I like the sound of that." " There you go." "Good." " Yeah." " Good!" "Good!" "Stay loose." " Yeah." "Good." "Stay loose." "Good." "Good." "Nice." "move!" "Keep it moving." "Keep it moving." "Don't let him get you." "Don't let him get you." "Good!" "nice!" "good." "Breathe." "move in!" "Move!" "Good!" "That was good." "Oh!" " You okay?" " Mmm-hmm." "maybe we should move on to weapons now." "I think I'm ready." "We are disappointed." "I..." "I'm sorry to hear that." "There are discussions about your loyalty." "Why?" "I'm doing everything you ask." "I've got my best people working on the pier." "Why did you leave?" "There was an emergency I had to attend to." "What emergency?" "There's... there's an impostor trying to infiltrate the company." "A young man claiming to be Danny Rand." "I needed to see for myself." "And?" "It's not going to be a problem." "We have an agreement." "You must honor it to the letter or there will be consequences." "I..." "I understand." " Kneel." " What?" "On your knees." "uh... the glass." "Kneel." "Scissor punch!" "Scissor punch." "Shuffle step." "Round hook punch." "Round hook punch!" "I got a Red Hook punch." " Red Hook?" " But it goes like this." "Enough!" "The dojo is a place of respect." "And who the hell are you?" "Maybe you wanna test me and find out." "You chatter like monkeys." "Your kicks and punches are like lace curtains." "Silence your inner voice." "Draw strength from your center." "Go slow at the beginning." "Come on." "What the hell?" "Who put you in charge?" "or are you training warriors?" "I am trying to provide a safe place for people." "Half the kids out there get beaten on a regular basis by family or bullies." "until now." "I'm sorry." "I know you're in a bind." "Having a tough time." "But you can't be here." "Sensei." "And here we are." "Already?" "What is this?" "I thought we were headed to a restaurant." "We'll get there." "But first things first." "you're gonna like this." "I don't understand." "this is starting to creep me out." "Meet Kevin Kennedy." "On life support following an auto accident for over a year." "He weighed 185 and has O negative blood." "In 30 minutes..." "Kevin's family will enter this room with a priest who will say last rites before the doctor takes him off life support and he dies." " Joy..." " Wait." "he signed up to donate his organs." "One of which is a liver." "Which is a perfect match for Terence." "Exactly." "His liver will never go to the national list." "It will go directly to your nephew." "Tonight." "How the hell did you manage this?" "Rand has many friends." "We'd like to add you to that list." "And the pier is my buy-in." "uh... really went above and beyond last night." "Thanks." "You want to tell me what's so important about this pier?" "It's just an acquisition we need." "For the future." "So you're not gonna tell me." "It's strategic." "That's all." "You know... it really pisses me off." "What?" "The fact you won't tell me what you're planning." "Ward." "Do you ever think about walking away from it?" "Yeah." "Honestly." "Dad put all that stuff in the will." "He wanted us to run Rand." "We lose everything if we leave." "I know." "But... people have been known to start over... with nothing." "aren't you?" "I'm tired... of a lot of things." "I'd miss you." "So you wouldn't come with me?" "I love Rand." "If it's not like that for you... that's fine." "You know I back you no matter what." "Right?" "I just want you to be happy." "thanks." "Your case is turning out to be more of a challenge than I thought." " How so?" " There is no proof of Danny Rand anywhere." "doctors' visits..." "Didn't you at least have a library card?" "Uh... yeah." "Sure." "too." "of course. and I don't like that." "Is there anything you didn't tell me?" "Something you might have missed?" "Maybe." "Hello?" "Hello?" "uh... can you help me?" "sure." "What do you need?" "uh... just looking for an X-ray from a visit when I was a kid." "I don't know." "Do you have a date?" "2001." "uh..." "I broke my arm skateboarding." "sure." "The X-rays from that period are on that shelf to your right." "too." "Okay." "I'd like to take a look." "Danny." "Danny... really." "Trying to get my head around all this." "This is not the time or the place." "You were like a brother to me." "but still..." "I looked up to you." "What does that have to do with anything?" "I know you sent that guy." "You were the only one with me the day I broke my arm." " What guy?" " Why is this so important to you?" " Do you hate me that much?" " Yes." "he's dead." "And I want him to stay that way." "Stop it!" "Stop it!" "Back up." " I don't understand." " Isn't it obvious?" "he's not your brother." "We don't want you here." "listen... okay?" "I have Hogarth now." "We're coming for you." "You can't deny what's mine." "What my father meant for me to have." "Sir." "Give me everything you have on Danny." "Everything. and I don't want to be caught off guard like I was just now." "Do you feel bad?" "About what you said?" "About what we're doing?" "I wonder why it has to be so complicated." "And I really wish that I could find something in Danny to hate because..." " it would make things a lot easier for me." " He just tried to attack your brother." "He also said Dad visited him" " in the mental hospital." " What?" "Yeah." "So... maybe he is as crazy as you say he is." "Let's get him out of here!" "Well done!" "All right!" "huh?" "How about some respect?" "Well done!" "didn't I?" "I hope you didn't lose your money on that one." "'Cause now we got the open round! sign up with Leon right there." "Who's it gonna be?" "Gonna be you?" "huh?" "You?" "You gonna be the tough guy?" "pretty boy?" "You?" "You gonna be the tough guy?" "Who's in?" "who wants to take a chance?" "It keeps getting better!" "Look what we have here!" "a fighting name or something?" "Daughter of the Dragon." "She calls herself the Daughter of the Dragon!" "honey?" "I dare ya." "I like it when you talk dirty." "then." "We got any challengers?" "huh?" "Anybody wanna take on the little lady?" "uh... that's not fair." "I paid my entry fee same as her." "Leon?" "All right." "Place your bets!" "Fighters... huh?" " For him?" " Cut the bullshit." "you tap out." "I warned you last time about the biting." "and I will 86 your ass." "I swear." "I heard you." "I'm pretty sure." "and that's the end of the fight." "Otherwise... whatever works." "Hmm?" "all bets are in!" "boys!" "man!" "Cut the Floyd Mayweather shit." "This is a..." "Ahh!" "The Daughter of the Dragon!" "Yeah!" "but you're welcome anytime." "Jeri." "Wish I could say the same." "shall we?" "Please do." "we have had a change of heart. we have decided to lower our offer to 20 million... and added a restraining order." "The restraining order is a nice touch." "I thought so." "we have had a change of heart as well. and a housing allowance in the amount of one million per year." "but come on." "You can't even prove he's who he says he is." "at worst he's a con man." "Take the offer and be thankful that we don't sue you." "Ward..." "I'm glad you mentioned my sense of humor." "I thought it was my ass." "As for proof of identity..." "What's this?" "Turn it over." "uh..." "I was always a poor speller." "This doesn't prove anything." "Anybody could have made this." "Look closely. right next to Joy's name." "I assure you... it is an exact match." "And I will be happy to depose Joy to establish provenance." "How did they get this?" "I have no idea." "Did you steal it?" "That is immaterial." "You know that it will hold up in court." "and that is all we need." "Fine. maybe longer." "We will see you in court." "It could have been so easy." "You could have just taken the money and had a great life." "It's my name." "And it means something." "I'll be back in a second." " Mmm. but I can't prove it." "We need another plan." "Okay." "We can talk about it when I get there." "Fifty." "sir." "His being represented by her grants him legitimacy." " Yes..." " And your fixer almost killed him." "Why did you go see him?" "I do what I want." "I do what I want. talk to people on the street." "You can't." "If I go to The New York Times and tell them to come..." "Your sister'd be killed and so would you." "How do you know that?" "Because this is mild." "This is what happened when I went to see Danny and they found out." "Ward." "I'm trapped and I need you to keep helping me." "I don't have anyone else."
