[first lines]
Oogway : [voice] Who knows the ways of the universe? Where and when a raindrop might fall? How strongly a wind will blow?
-
Oogway : [rain falls, thunder rumbles] A cleaner, a comedian, a dancer, and even a little doctor. It was no accident that you found them.
Young Tigress : I failed Shifu.
Oogway : Worse, you are failing yourself. No matter how much you try, you will never be Shifu.
Oogway : [dramatic pause] The question is... can you be Tigress?

Po : [picks up a radish] Nice radish.

Young Pig : Oh boy, thank you!
Mr. Ping : I'm giving it away.

Mr. Ping : I put them in the box over there.
Po : This... box?
Mr. Ping : Uh, whoops.
Po : Noooo! No...
Mr. Ping : I'm sorry, Po.
Po : Dad, they're handmade scale replicas with kung fu action! I made them the day I fell in love with kung fu! I have to find them!
Mr. Ping : Po, it was an accident!
Po : [Po starts searching the village frantically] Where are they?
Oogway : Accident... or destiny? Little does Po know that it was just such an *accident* that brought the Furious Five together all those years ago. This is the story of how the Five came to be.

[grunts]
Oogway : I can't even tell them apart.
Shifu : [grunts] Focus, control!
[Shifu continues to grunt while Tigress does her exercises]
Shifu : [Tigress lets out a small hiss] Control!
Oogway : [Tigress roars and leaps into the air] Ahh, there she is.
Shifu : [Tigress lands on the ground] What are you doing? That's not proper form! This is not control. and stand on your feet!
Young Tigress : I'm sorry, Master, I - I don't know what got into me, I won't let it happen again.
Shifu : I wish I could believe that.
[sighs]
Shifu : 100 laps.
Young Tigress : Yes, Master Shifu.
Shifu : Higher knees!
Young Tigress : Yes, Master Shifu!
Oogway : She wants to make you proud.
Shifu : Well, maybe I could be proud if she was doing the correct form.
Oogway : 'Your' form.
Shifu : Is there another kind?
Oogway : Shifu, an acorn can only become the mighty oak, not a cherry tree. You must let her grow into what she will be.

Young Tigress : Master, it would be an honor to fight for you.
Shifu : No, you are not ready. Oof!
[an ailing Shifu belches from indigestion, while Oogway chuckles]
Shifu : [to the goose] Get me a scroll.
Shifu : [Shifu writes on the scroll] This is a list of four warriors, find them in the Wang Fu village and hurry!
Oogway : No, send Tigress.

Oogway : Mmm.
Shifu : Be back before dawn. Do not fail me.
