a beautiful path ahead of us.

Fleur, the door to youth

has been opened for you.

Are you ready or not?

Okay.

Big Brother.

Let me introduce her to you,

she's Fleur.

Big Sister Fleur.

They are all my good brothers.

-See-Through.

-Hi.

Blondie.

Ringo.

Wow, they all wear their names

on their faces.

What are we supposed to perform?

You'll know after reading this.

Read it, it's good stuff.

Fleur.

The words are upside down.

A Tai Chi cookie for you.

See you next week.

Learn Tai Chi when you're free.

You're so pretty.

I'll give you a Tai Chi badge.

It fits you. Wear it now.

Fleur, thanks. All because of you.

You're like an oasis in a desert.

Right, you're such a good sport.

You know, we haven't had

so much applause for a while.

All thanks to your skills

of seduction.

Seduction?

In fact, I've been seduced by her too.

Come, I'll give you a fan.

Thanks.

Alan.

You gave me a rheumatism plaster

last time.

-Did it work?

-Very much so.

-That's good. That's what counts.

-Right, it worked very well.

Master.

What's this?

Master, our new members.

Bruce and Fleur.

Grandmaster.

Grandmaster.

Alan, you have

more and more followers.

Master, you're the one

with more Tai Chi students.

You're the Big Brother now.

Come more often to help out

when you're free.

Will do.

Don't straighten your arms.

Go out and do the horse stance

for 20 minutes.

-Go out.

-I'm not going.

-Go out.

-I'm not going.

That's only 10% of Master's power.

We were trained like that by him

back in the days.

Want some water?

-Thank you.

-Thank you.

You're welcome.

See-Through.

You all came from here?

Correct.

What's your crime?

What about your Big Brother?

Don't ask a hero where he's from.

That's okay.

Sorry, I wanna ask.

If you can all move back a bit

during my solo.

Otherwise, I can't be seen.

We still don't know

the size of the venue.

There's no need to be so precise

in our rehearsal.

No sweat, I can move back a little.

Shoot! She just wants to show off.

Look.

Let's first try

Rebecca's suggestion, all right?

All right?

All right.

What's up?

Okay, let's start! Five... six...

seven, eight and one.

Granny, it's for you.

Rooftoppers has officially accepted

our challenge.

The battle will take place on

the 5th of next month.

A battle? That'd be like

throwing sheep to the lions.

If that's true, then the sooner,

the better.

This battle is to let you all see

Rooftoppers' true power.

After all, we'll see them

at the Dance Chample.

You still remember

our goal this year?

Unless you still plan

to hide out here.

It's actually not bad here.

Does it matter

if we have an office or not?

If you really hate

the office that much,

let's give it up after

the school returns it to us

instead of hiding here like orphans.

It's a matter of our reputation.

Let's cut the crap

and start rehearsing.

-All right, let's do it.

-All right, let's start.

Lose your diapers before the Chample.

Or people would say we're bullies.

Where's your supernova, Fleur?

Is she not here cause you guys suck?

Who the heck are these rabid dogs?

Their moves just keep coming,

how can we possibly beat them?

You wouldn't be able to do their moves

even with 10 years of practice.

Sh*t!

Well, have you guys

thought about asking

Fleur to come back?

I'm exhausted! Let's discuss later!

Do you really not remember

or are you just pretending?

Remember what?

Four years ago,

"The Damsel from Alishan".

Since I was little,

all my uncles and aunts

called me a natural born artist.

They said I was destined

for the stage.

That was the first time

I had performed

in front of so many people.

I had prepared half a year

for the performance.

I dreamed of a standing ovation

every night.

We'd like to thank

the student of Jubilee School

for performing in our school.

I think if

we had invited the Uncle

from Alishan to dance for us,

it would have been more touching.

The Uncle from Alishan?

The performance was so touching.

After that, I vowed to myself,

the next time I set foot on stage,

I would be a star.

So you're here for revenge?

Dave? Good, I'll swing by right away.

No, I just met an old friend.

Why are you dancing like a crab?

Fiddler crab, go back to the river bed

to lay eggs.

-What happened? You okay, Fleur?

-Don't touch her for now.

I'm fine, sorry.

Sorry, we're okay.

What are you doing?

Look! A shooting star.

Your secret remedy really works.

Nature works in mysterious ways.

It's all your fault today.

I needed to twist 90 degrees

to do the Fan Dance.

Twist, palm out, chaste step,

show the fan. It looks hideous.

You didn't put your heart to it.

Tai Chi values intention

over strength.

You've spent all your strength.

When you flipped the fan,

the center of gravity

was in the center.

You turned...

The mustang parts its mane,

the white crane flashes its wings.

Don't say I never listen to you.

My foot is better now,

teach me new moves.

Okay.

I'll teach you Pushing Hands.

Let's start.

Try listening to my hand with yours.

Keep touching.

Don't drop off, and don't resist.

The spirit of Tai Chi

depends on how you

harmonize with the rest of the world.

How do I harmonize?

Master, please enlighten me.

When you push towards me,

I absorb your energy

and return it to you.

Yin doesn't leave Yang.

Yang doesn't leave Yin.

The ultimate of Yin is Yang.

The ultimate of Yang is Yin.

Alan, what are you really made of?

At college, they all call you

Tai Chi D*ckhead Alan.

How come you don't seem to be pissed?

You're still trying to recruit

new members every day.

The little bunny asks you,

are you a shepherd dog?

Wow! A wolf?

Got a problem?

Beat him!

Stop! Go away! Stop!

-Go over there.

-Easy, Sir. You're hurting me.

-Sit down.

-I'm not sitting.

-Sit down!

-Go away!

Sit down!

Are you new?

Haven't seen you before.

Spare me the story

of the prodigal son.

Repent and be saved.

I'm so tired of listening

to that sh*t.

Everybody is good at something.

Like me, I'm good at Tai Chi.

What about you?

Beating people up!

From tomorrow on, learn Tai Chi

from me at 5:
00 a.m. every day.

You look really cool when you dance.

You know how?

Not really, just a little bit.

The way you dance is quite unique.

Really?

Yeah.

Master, please tell me more.

The main difference between

your dancing and theirs

is that they look so contrived

when they dance.

It's as if Vegeta is dancing.

But you're different.

You smile when you dance.

Not only your face,

but your limbs are smiling too.

That's really awesome.

Idiot, you're the only one

who thinks I'm awesome.

They all think I dance like a crab.

Like a fiddler crab.

Huh?

When I was

at the correctional facility,

I often had to pick up trash here.

So I made friends with the crabs here.

Here's where I met Shing.

He was dancing with his claw

to woo a crab girl.

While he was dancing,

some crooks tried to kidnap his girl.

Shing used his claws
