4x05 Match Point

Kreese isn't really happy about Silver's defensive plans / armistice :) Unfortunately Silver is quite smart and probably has a good plan...

Daniel wanting to lead isn't his best character trait. Of course it'll set Johnny off! Daniel is still a bit of a hotshot and is fixated on is belief that Miyagi-Do is the only right way (I like Miyagi-Do the most but it doesn't seem that promising against Cobra Kai). I was quite excited about the possibility of a tournament-style fight between Johnny and Daniel though. I wasn't sure if it would happen but I definitely wanted to see the action. I just hoped that none of them would win because that means the other would have to loose and I don't want that. I definitely don't want Daniel to win because he already won in the past and needs the victory much less as he alread believes to be the better fighter. Johnny winning would be kinda fine but I obviously want to see the two of them working together and not just one of them teaching the kids. So I was hoping for a draw but didn't really saw a good way for that. Their solution was beautiful (with that double knockout and the attention shifting to Hawk) <3 It unfortunately still caused a breakup between the two but at least they can both continue to teach and neither of the two lost.
I also really liked how smart Amanda and Sam are and how they both assumed that Daniel set off Johnny (or at least that he played his part). And I really like how Sam understands and defends Johnny. Daniel doesn't like that of course! And I especially like that Sam is making her own decisions.

Some other notes:

• Johnny only pays $ 3 for his drink :D
• Hawk changs his style to purple hair. He really has a chance now that Moon broke up with Pipe. His reaction to that was nice.
• Daniel's own employees (his cousin and a close friend) warn him about the fight with Johnny xD
• Daniel almost apologized to Johnny. So close... :)
• Robby payback plan was good for them but quite mean... They really ambushed Hawk and it wasn't a fair fight (at least 5 vs. 1, IIRC). At least they "only" cut his hair instead of beating him up.
• Johnny is surprised about their audience after tweeting about the fight xD
• Johnny offering Daniel a diplomatic solution / to talk about it instead of fighting <3
• The breakup between Miyagi-Do and Eagle Fang Karate :(
