Adam and Rocky are performing their kata in front of their class. When they are done, the class applauds. Adam and Rocky face their students. Adam: "You'll learn that at the end of the course. Now let's start with some of the basic katas." The students begin. A smaller student, Shawn, bumps into a bigger student, Butch. Butch: "Hey, watch it small fry!" It happens again. Butch: "Give it up shrimp, you'll never get it right. Why don't you just go back to the 1st grade where you belong." Shawn: "Quit saying that!" Butch and Shawn glare at each other. Adam: "Hey lighten up." Adam tells them that is not how we handle things here. Butch is convinced with Shawn on their team, they will not do well in the finals. Rocky tells him with an attitude like that, they don't have a team. Class is dismiss. Adam walks over to Shawn and tells him not to take the teasing to heart. Shawn believes the fellow students are right, and he will just let the team down. Adam tells him when he was younger, he was the weakest kid. But he didn't stay that way. With some practice, Shawn will get better. Adam tells Shawn once he believes in himself, the others will to.
Inside his palace, Lord Zedd had been watching the Youth Center. Goldar is with him. Lord Zedd: "Well, it appears Black Ranger has a soft spot, his memory of having been ridicule as a child." Lord Zedd laughs. Lord Zedd: "Now we need only turn this to our advantage, by showing him scenes from his miserable past." Goldar: "To remind him of his weaknesses." Lord Zedd: "Of course you dimwit! And once he's lost his confidence, I shall destroy him." Lord Zedd laughed once more.
At the Youth Center, Adam is helping Shawn with his kata. Rocky and Aisha are sitting at a table, and they shout out encouragements. Shawn falls, but Adam keeps encouraging him and Shawn gets right back up.
