How come Terry Silver and John Kreese are so young in South Korea 1980 and John Kreese suddenly looks 20 years older at the All Valley which happened only four years later in 1984??? Even a few years after Silver is much older training Daniel. I know using different actors might be needed but they would have been much older in South Korea in 1980. When Kreese talks about a new kid he'd like to train (Johnny) he's very young in a flashback. In 84 Johnny is about maybe 16-18 and the flashback Johnny looks about 8-10 years old.

I love this show but I think the timeline title might be a goof.

I love how they bring back old characters not just major parts but even small roles. They must go back through the movies with a fine tooth comb and say there's something we can use in the series. I wonder if Hillary Swank will make an appearance in Season 6?

Eventually they will run out of characters to resurrect. What about Miyagi's true love (Kimiko's mother) secretly had a child that Miyagi didn't know about and grew up to come in and take over Miyagi-Do. Hmm could work.

A pleasant introduction to episode 7 sees Anthony LaRusso being bullied and dunked headfirst into a clogged toilet.

Would you look at the color of that tepid water. I'd say it's been sitting there for a good month? And what do you think that color would be classified as? Something crossed between cola, mellow yellow and bronchitis cough syrup possibly? (He can count himself lucky he's not made to eat an 'American Psycho' urinal cake.)

Meanwhile, at LaRusso's car dealership, they're drawing up battle plans and pinpointing Silver's every dojo location like they're strategically going to war with a flanking plan of surprise attack. Um?

Time out! Time. Is there even an All Valley tournament in season 5?

Chozen's taken over Miyagi-Do Karate and look who's jumped on board - Anthony.

The cracks in Tory are starting to appear as she's looking out for Devon and becoming more concerned with Cobra Kai's new direction from outside influences.

Silver, and the new addition Jade from 'Mortal Kombat 2,' monitor the students with round the clock surveillance while discussing world domination and I gotta say that Jade looks like a Foot Soldier from 'TMNT' without the ski mask.

Silver's mind never switches off. He's always thinking three moves ahead constantly. In fact, it's safe to say that Terry Silver's the type of villain who would collect your glass from a bar and frame you two season's later with the collected DNA evidence.

Johnny and Daniel pay Kreese a visit in prison - at Amanda's request - and this should go down well. Yep, he's stonewalling and tells them to beat it at first.

On second thought, I take it back, it's not Jade from 'Mortal Kombat 2,' no, she looks more like Lucy Liu and she also thinks that she's 'Lady Snowblood' as well.

Tory and Devon are paired up to take on 'Lady Snowblood' and they're quickly reduced back to white belts instantly. Call it ring rust, I dunno? I Bet The Emperor would earmark that display with the word "feeble" in his report no doubt.

In a snake ass move, Daniel cuts a deal with the devil himself - Kreese. Huh? That move's lower than a snake's belly, Daniel-San. Tread carefully.

Elsewhere, Hawk and Chozen face-off over an egg spoon race and Hawk shines him on, "Come and get it, old man." Well, that didn't last long and yes, they play a silly hide-and-seek drill with store-bought eggs. It's a bit juvenile. Um?

I'm kind of over Miguel and Sam with their awkward post break up conversation encounters. What did 'Pulp Fiction' call them? Awful cold dead silences, or something?

And as for the whole Easter egg hunt lesson? I don't know what its sole principle purpose is/was?

Round two in the egg hunt unfolds and I'm sitting here picturing in my mind the young Chozen from 'Karate Kid 2' doing this to these kids. He'd annihilate them within 20 seconds.

Is it safe to say that all of Miyagi-Do Karate have lost the edge? They've gone back to being clumsy white belts themselves. This round two egg test is embarrassing to watch.

This is just a bottle episode anyway.

Meanwhile, back in prison, Daniel cuts a deal with Kreese to spill the beans on Silver in exchange for help with a good lawyer.

Uh-oh! It's typo time. Allow me, if I may?

At the 33:36-minute mark Daniel-San passes a note in class to Kreese that reads, "NO MERCY MOTHER FLUFFY." All in capitals to emphasize the dramatics of its point. (I have altered one word to protect the PG-13 integrity of this review.)

Um, mother fluffy (sic) is one word - motherfluffy - and not spaced. So technically, and with proper grammar, it should have read, "No mercy, motherfluffy." But, I'm prone to making errors myself so who am I to complain, or judge? In one of my latest reviews on IMDb I used the word heel instead of heal when talking about healing wounds. But it was a pun related to foot lotion, you see?

No mercy mother flux capacitor, eh?

Who's the maladjusted flunkey responsible for the corruption of misleading young minds here? What you see here, people, is a breach of trust which cannot be filed under an honest mistake admission. Didn't that hippy band once sing something about teaching your children well? Have we not learned? Did we not heed the hippy message? This error of judgment will be forever etched in entertainment folklore, permanently pressed for future generations to see. TO SEE THAT 2022 GOT IT WRONG STILL. I thought we were advanced and had evolved? THIS IS THE FUTURE AND WE'RE STILL MAKING ERRORS? I expect higher standards of you than that, 'Cobra Kai.' You are aware of a thing called a proofreader, right?

My honor feels compromised by this blatant violation of sabotage. I've been shamed by my fellow man due to their lack of education. There's no hiding my disappointment.

Daniel and Johnny play Kreese for a fool, after handing him the typo-laced message and renege on the promised deal while laughing about it in Kreese's face.

Kreese just lost face in a major way. He's as embarrassed as I am right now!

He sits there and his blood boils when he realizes that they played him to their advantage. But you can see his mind working overtime. I bet he's there thinking, "Just you wait till I get out of here."

The good money says that Kreese will have the last laugh by season's end though as I already know this because I cheated and scrolled through episode 10 earlier this week already. At the end of episode 10, Kreese rises like the Phoenix, dressed as a doctor, and walks out of an infirmary a free man while smoking a stogy.

Meaning - SEASON 6, HERE WE COME!

You see, Cobra Kai aren't the only snakes here. Some of us are just as slithery.
