The film then veers into "Karate Kid" territory where the novice humiliates himself at every turn, is tolerated as a foreigner, and still comes out a champion. The monastery teaches non-violence, but everyone knows that sooner or later the student will catch up with the bad guy.

Li goes up to the D.S. and points to the bed he was assigned.
LI:
I will switch with Disciple Gao.
D.S. nods, and then starts for the door.
D.S.
Go to sleep. No talking! We have an early day of training tomorrow.
Gao collects his stuff and starts off to the new bed, hitting Drew with his shoulder. Drew trips him as he walks away, all done very secretively since the D.S. is watching.
DREW:
Jerk!
Li comes over to the new bed, and in silence they get climb into their respective beds. D.S. switches off the lights, then leaves, and Drew stares up at the ceiling.
DREW (CONT'D) Thanks for what you did.
LI:
Where are you from?
DREW:
New York City. You?
LI:
Beijing. What is New York like?
DREW:
Amazing. I'll tell you about...
GAO:
Shut UP!
DREW:
Blow me!
Drew waits for a moment, fearful that the D.S. will be coming back in. He doesn't.
DREW (CONT'D) Good night, Li.
LI:
Wan an.
DISSOLVE TO: ANGLE ON DREW, SLEEPING All is quiet.
Suddenly, a huge stick ENTERS FRAME, and it pauses for a moment above Drew, before THUMPING down on top of him.
Drew cries out when he is hit, and jumps out of bed, looking all around him. No one is there. A few of the disciples are moving around because he yelled, but there is nothing else there.
Drew, belatedly, gets into a fighting stance, but no other attack is coming.
ANGLE ON GAO: Who seems to be sleeping peacefully.
ANGLE ON DREW: As he climbs back into bed, bone-weary. He lies back down to sleep.
