Synopsis: Jimmy "The Lightning Bolt" Lee is a former mixed martial arts champion who returns home and is asked by his father figure, Charlie, to teach a group of inner city kids martial arts in preparation for a tournament. The reigning junior national champions, the Beverly Hills Scorpions, are coached by the very cocky and arrogant Ted Barret, who is a former rival of Jimmy's. With help from local food truck vendor Big Mama, Jimmy's team becomes the Underdogs. As the Underdogs prepare for the big tournament, both the kids and Jimmy learn some lessons from each other that will make their bond stronger as they prepare for a showdown with the Scorpions.

Boy, these two fighters

are really going at it today.

So far, Scorpions are

in the lead.

Underdogs behind in points

trying to catch up.

Both teams sizing each other up.

Whoa, Wyatt, a punch

to the midsection.

A point.

Scorpion, roundhouse kick to

the head knocking Wyatt down.

You were awesome, Wyatt.

I have no excuses.

He was better than me.

That was my bad.

You've come a long way, Wyatt.

And I'm proud of you.

And the Scorpions

take the first match.

Going to the scoreboard,

Scorpions 10, Underdogs 6.

It's now Cameron of the Scorpions

against Ricky of the Underdogs

- getting ready to fight.

- Fight!

The referee gives the signal.

The battle is on.

Both fighters exchanging kicks.

Spinning roundhouse kick

that connects!

A point.

Whoa, a powerful kick to Ricky

knocking him down and getting

points for the Scorpions.

Connects with a 360 spin heel

kick knocking Cameron to the mat.

Wow, what a comeback

for the Underdogs.

Wow, what a spectacular kick.

The instant replay.

What a close fight.

And it's a tie.

That was intense.

Fight.

Scorpion attacks,

Leticia blocks and counters

with a spin heel kick.

Point!

Now Scorpions are on the

offensive.

Underdog counters.

Punches, Scorpion blocks and counters

with an under punch to the ribs.

- Point.

- Fight!

Scorpion attacks.

Leticia counters, misses.

Moving, waiting for an opening,

Scorpion moves in.

Boom! A side kick to the head.

Girl power!

Girl power is alive and well.

What a fight!

The score is now 14 to 10,

Scorpions in the lead.

Uh-oh, looks like Raymond from the

Underdogs team is on the run.

- Where are you going?

- Get him!

- Come on, Raymond!

- There you go, get him.

Oh, boy, this looks like a

train wreck waiting to happen.

He calls that the fart of death.

This has to be the skunk

maneuver of the century.

Now the match is between Scorpions'

Jake and little Sean from Underdogs.

- Sean's in trouble.

- Yeah.

Jake attacks.

Oh, this doesn't look good.

Pass this down

to your coach, all right?

Good boy.

Little Sean could sure

use a miracle right now.

What?

Little Sean attacks

with two punches, and boom.

Kicks Jake in the stomach

for a point.

Judge raises the white flag.

Point for the Underdogs.

And another point!

Don't touch my pillow.

Come on. Come on, Sean.

Come on, Sean.

Oh, boy, this next match

is gonna be interesting.

Alex's opponent

is a foot taller than he is.

What's the matter?

He's so much bigger than I am.

He's gonna kill me.

Alex, just keep looking

at him, all right?

- Remember David and Goliath?

- Yeah.

- All right, so who was bigger?

- Goliath.

- Who won?

- David.

Yeah, so have the courage

of David, all right?

Use your speed

and your smarts, okay?

And remember,

the bigger they are...

- The harder they fall.

- Yeah.

Go get him, Alex.

Get him, Alex.

Okay, here we go.

Scorpions on the offensive.

Alex trying to evade

those powerful kicks.

Alex trying to find an opening.

The Scorpion fighter is relentless,

not giving Alex an opening.

Alex shuffling his feet

side to side...

- Come on, Alex.

- ...looking for an opening.

The bigger they are,

the harder they fall.

- Yeah!

- Mazel Tov!

Alex lands a huge kick,

taking the giant down.

Whoa, did you see that kick?

Did you see that kick?

That was like poetry in motion.

Eric...

this kid Rasheed, he stutters

and he's got a bad temper.

Piss him off

and get him disqualified.

- Dad, I can take him.

- Do as I say.

You understand?

- Yes, sir.

- Okay...

- Good boy.

- ...here we go.

Scorpions team captain Eric

and Underdog Rasheed.

- Come on, Eric.

- Come on, Eric.

Come on, Shabazz.

Nope, nope. N-Nice try.

I bet your grandma hits

harder than you.

What, what?

Come on, Eric, kick him.

Eric, come on.

- Attack!

- Finish him!

- Whoa, whoa, whoa!

- No!

Rasheed, no!

Put your gloves on.

Move back. Get back.

You're gonna get disqualified.

Be careful.

Think of your team!

Think of your team, Rasheed!

Think of your team. Watch it.

Rasheed, confidence.

Believe in yourself.

Now take it to him, Rasheed.

Hey, come on, little bro.

It's all you, man.

- Come on. Come on!

- What are you doing, man?

I bet your whole family

is a spazz.

Look at his moves.

It's so unorthodox.

Come on, bro. It's you, man.

There you go.

Come here. You see that, huh?

Will you look at that?

You see that? That's a tie.

What it's not is a win.

You let him beat you.

Him! He stinks,

which means you suck.

Get out of here.

I'm sorry, what?

Can I please direct your

attention to our scoreboard?

This never happens.

Look at the score.

You've got

the Beverly Hills Scorpions 22,

Mid-City Underdogs 22.

We have a tie, ladies and gentlemen,

which means that our competition

will be decided

with a musical form competition.

And now, introducing

the musical form judges...

Master Richard Norton.

Master Don "The Dragon" Wilson.

Master Danny Inosanto.

Master Benny Urquidez.

Master Jun Chong.

First, performing

their extreme musical form,

please give a warm round

of applause

to the undefeated All-City

Junior National Champions,

the Beverly Hills Scorpions!

Let's hear it one more time

for the Beverly Hills Scorpions.

Come on!

All right,

let's look at our board.

Beverly Hills Scorpions 71,

Mid-City Underdogs 22.

So let's give a big, warm round

of applause for our challengers,

the Mid-City Underdogs.

Here they are!

We need some insurance.

Squirt that water in the socket.

- Dad, I'm not gonna do that.

- Squirt some water in the socket.

- No.

- What did you say?

You heard me, Dad.

Hey, I didn't get us

into this position, you did.

Now squirt some water

in the socket.

Give me that.

Guys, I have bad news.

What's wrong, Coach?

The CD is broken.

How are we supposed to do

the form without the music?

This is jacked up.

Yeah, how?

With our hearts.

That doesn't make sense.

I want you to listen to the music

and feel the music in your hearts.

We are the Underdogs.

This is what's handed to us.

But always remember our motto...

to take everything

that's negative in our lives...

And turn it

into something positive.

That's right.

Now I want you to go out there,

close your eyes,

and listen for my beats.

You got that? Okay.

Can somebody please turn on

the... lights... I need lights.

I can't do an event with...

Hi! Frank Bosco.

And apparently you, uh...

you see the lights are back on.

It's all good.

Now let's continue

our musical forms competition.

Thank you, Jaime.

Charlie, I need your shoes.

Okay, for what?

I don't have time

to explain right now.

Come on.

Come on, come on, come on.

- Oh!

- Oh, Charlie.

Hold your breath.

Those are my new ones.

Yes, Raymond! Whoohoo!

Good job! Way to go!

Yeah!

He came.

That's my son! Yes, he is.

Yeah!

Yeah!

What a performance,

ladies and gentlemen.
