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.

DREW:
No problem.
(he smiles) Without pause.
SAN DE:
Now, a friend would like to see you.
(beat) ... alone.
From out of the bamboo grove comes Ashema, her hands in front of her and her head down. She is not sure Drew wants to see her.
Drew looks at her, then back to San De, but he is already gone. They are alone.
Drew walks to her, takes her chin in his hand and tilts it up to look at her face. Her eyes are full of love and tenderness, and a little fear.
Drew kisses that fear away.
EXT. BEIJING HALL – DAY ESTABLISHING SHOT OF HUGE EXHIBITION HALL. THE MARQUEE READS "INTERNATIONAL WU SHU COMPETITION".
INT. BEIJING HALL – SAME DAY ESTABLISHING SHOT OF HUGE HALL, THE FLOOR OF WHICH IS CROWDED WITH RINGS.
One large raised ring is in the middle of the floor – the place for the finals.
ANGLE ON SIDE OF THE RING Where Li, Gao, San De, D.S. and some others are waiting. They are all in monastic garb.
Drew and Ashema walk up to them, holding hands. Drew is dressed in a fighting monk's costume as well, and he bows to his fellow monks.
DREW:
Are we late?
SAN DE:
The fight has not yet started.
DREW:
Did you think he would get into the finals?
SAN DE:
Who could know? He fights the winner of the Western countries, which is why I wanted you here.
DREW:
I'll help any way I can.
ANGLE ON THE CROWD As it parts to let someone through. Drew turns casually to look at the competitor. Slowly, a figure, followed by a large group of people, comes clear... it is Trevor!
ANGLE ON DREW: Who is stunned.
ANGLE ON SAN DE: Could he have known?
ANGLE ON TREVOR: Who spots drew standing near the ring. He walks past him, trying to place his face. Then, he comes back and walks right up to Drew and slaps him on the back.
TREVOR:
Carson! Drew Carson! I can't believe it! I come half way around the world, and run into you! I heard you left the city, but I didn't know losing to me drove you into being a monk!
Drew is dumbstruck, and Trevor takes advantage of it.
TREVOR (CONT'D) (to San De) He take a vow of silence too? Nice hair, Drew.
