Jackie Chan: Monkey

Kung Fu Panda 2

Monkey

Po: [struggling to his knees] I *have* to get to him.
Tigress: [threateningly] Then tell me why!
Po: He was there, OK? The peacock was there the last time I saw my parents! He knows what happened... where I came from... who I am.
[Tigress stares and opens her mouth slightly as her expression softens]
Po: Look, I'm going.
[stands up]
Po: I have to know. The hard core can't understand.
[Tigress frowns and lunges at Po]
Viper: Tigress, no!
[Tigress hugs Po; Crane's jaw drops]
Tigress: [warmly] The hard core *do* understand.
[pulls away]
Tigress: But I can't watch my friend be killed.
[to the others]
Tigress: We're going.
Crane: Uh, maybe you can't watch *me* be killed?
Tigress: [firmly] Stop being a wimp.
Monkey: And... she's back.
Master Storming Ox: [sighs] Don't worry, kid. You're better off here.

[after Po is apparently killed by Shen's cannon and the Five are captured]
Monkey: We cannot give up hope. Po would want us to remain strong. Hardcore! Right, Tigress?
[Tigress is silent in grief]

Tigress: That... was pretty hardcore.
[Po smiles at Tigress, and then shocks her with a hug. The other masters stare in astonishment, Crane drops his beak. Po notices them staring and releases Tigress who is frozen in shock. The Five leap on Po and embrace him]
Monkey: Po!
Viper: You did it!
Mantis: Come here! Yeah!
Crane: Don't ever do that again, please!
[Shifu steps forward]
Shifu: It seems that you have found inner peace...
[frowns]
Shifu: And at such a young age.
Po: Well, I had a pretty good teacher.

Master Storming Ox: [recognizes them] You! What did you do? It's chaos up there. What happened to stopping Shen?
Monkey: [sarcastically to Po] Yeah.
Po: Yeah... Guys, come on! Give me a little credit. I meant for him to get away. Cause... It was a trick. There's a plot! I was thinking... of figuring out his plot... more.
Mantis: That makes no sense.
Po: What do you mean? Sure it does.

[Inside the Training Hall, all the obstacles and other training equipment are seen as vacant. Meanwhile, the voices continue]
Monkey, Crane, Viper: [in unison] 33...
Mantis: Stop him!
Monkey, Crane, Viper: 34...
Mantis: It's too dangerous!
Monkey, Crane, Viper: 35...
Tigress: Stay focused!
Monkey, Crane, Viper: 36... 37...
Mantis: How is he doing that with his face?
[Po is seen placing a bean bun in his mouth, which is already full of thirty-seven other bean buns, he smashes his fist on the table]
Po: [with his mouth full] Thirty-eight bean buns!
Mantis: Yes! New record! You monster!
Monkey: Keep going! Hit forty!
[holds out a bowl of bean buns]
Crane: He'll never hit forty!
Po: [takes two bean buns] You got it, buddy! I'll put it up to forty!
Tigress: Do it!
Po: No problem!
[He puts the two bean buns in his mouth and tries to close his mouth. He struggles. The Five watch in silent awe]
Po: Yeah... Yeah, one moment.
[When he succeeds, he sticks his hands up in the air and begins cheering, while the Five cheer along with him]
Crane: [approached him] Well done, Po!
[Crane slaps Po on the back in congratulations, causing Po to spit the bean buns back at the Five. Monkey and Mantis are hit, while Viper ducks and Tigress blocks two of the buns]
Tigress: Your training has paid off.
