SHIFU: You cannot leave! A real warrior never quits!
PO: Watch me!
He tries to maneuver around Shifu, but is redirected back.
PO: Oh come on! How am I supposed to beat Tai Lung? I can't even beat you to the stairs.
SHIFU: You will beat him because you are the Dragon Warrior!
Shifu pokes Po in the belly with the staff, keeping him back.
PO: Ow! You don't believe that! [Shifu hits him again.] Ow! You never believed that! From the first moment I got here, you've been trying to get rid of me!
Po attempts to maneuver again, but Shifu sweeps his legs from under him, causing him to fall on his back. Shifu points the staff at his face.
SHIFU: Yes! I was! But now I ask you to trust in your master as I have come to trust in mine.
PO: You're not my master. [He shoves the staff away.] And I'm not the Dragon Warrior.
SHIFU: Then why didn't you quit?! You knew I was trying to get rid of you, and yet you stayed!
PO: Yeah, I stayed.
Po gets to his feet.
PO: I stayed because though every time you threw a brick at my head or said I smelled, it hurt... [Shifu stares at him.] but it could never hurt more than it did every day of my life just being me.
Po pauses. Shifu is in a stunned silence.
PO: I stayed because I thought if anyone could change me... could make me... not me, it was you! The greatest kung fu teacher in all of China!
SHIFU: But I can change you! I can turn you into the Dragon Warrior! And I will!
PO: Oh come on! Tai Lung is on his way here right now! And even if it takes him a hundred years to get here, how are you... gonna change this... [indicates belly] ...into the Dragon Warrior?! Huh?
Shifu opens his mouth... and freezes.
PO: How... how?
Shifu closes his mouth, still speechless.
PO: HOW?!
SHIFU: I DON'T KNOW!
Shifu yells out the answer in frustration. Then he sighs deeply, realizing what this means.
SHIFU: I don't know.
Po's anger changes to sadness. He also sighs.
PO: That's what I thought.
Shifu walks away, leaving the path open to Po
Above them, Tigress stands in the moonlight on the edge of the palace roof. She has seen what just transpired between Shifu and Po. She turns away, a look of resolve on her face... and LEAPS. She flies through the air, towards the village in the valley below. At the last second, she slides down a pagoda roof and lands safely on the rooftop. She looks up at the horizon, then back up at the palace.
TIGRESS: This is what you trained me for.
She takes off across the rooftops. The other four are right behind her, having suspected what she would do.
VIPER: Tigress!
Tigress looks back and sees that they have followed her. She keeps going and they give chase.
TIGRESS: Don't try and stop me!
The chase continues through the village.
VIPER: We're not trying to stop you!
