Master Storming Ox:
Oh.. You! What did you do? It's chaos up there. What happened to stopping Shen?
Po:
Yeah.. Guys, come on! Give me a little credit. I meant for him, to get away. 'Cause.. It's a trick. There's a lot! I was thinking, of.. figure out his plan.. more.
Mantis:
That makes, no sense.
Po:
What you mean? What you mean? It sure does.
Tigress:
Po, the truth! You had Shen. What happened?
Po:
What're you talking about? What're you.. I don't know, what are you talking about? Uh.. Yeah! Ahh.. You got me of course.
Tigress:
The truth! Fine! They'll keep you far from danger.
Master Croc:
Realist far!
Po:
What?
Tigress:
You're staying here.
Po:
Wa.. Wait! I have to go back..
Tigress:
You are staying here.
Po:
I'm going. And you can't stop me! Okay, I wasn't ready that time.
Viper:
Guys, don't!
Tigress:
Ready!
Po:
Look!
Viper:
Stay down!
Po:
I have to get to him.
Tigress:
Then, tell me why.
Po:
He was there. Okay? The peacock was there, the last time I saw my parents. He knows what happened. Where I came from. Who I am. Look, I'm going. I have to know. The hard core can't understand.
Viper:
Tigress.. No!
Tigress:
The hard core do understand. But I can't watch my friend, be killed. We're going.
Crane:
Hey! Maybe you can't watch me be killed.
Tigress:
Stop it one wing.
Monkey:
And.. She's back!
Master Storming Ox:
Don't worry, kid. You're better off here.
Shen:
[triumphantly] You were wrong, Soothsayer! [wields sword] We sail to victory tonight. Your magic panda is clearly a fool!
Soothsayer:
[angrily] Are you certain it is the panda that is a fool?! You just destroyed your ancestral home, Shen!
Shen:
A trivial sacrifice... [sticks the sword's tip into a nearby fire, then pokes the burning tip to a map of China, which bursts into a spreading flame] when all of China is my reward.
Soothsayer:
Then will you finally be satisfied? Will the subjugation of the whole world finally make you feel better?
Shen:
[sneers] It's a start. I might also convert the basement into a dungeon.
[Her anger spent, Soothsayer approaches the peacock, who is standing at the balcony with his back to her.]
Soothsayer:
The cup you choose to fill has no bottom. It is time to stop this madness.
Shen:
[chuckles] Why on Earth would I do that?
Soothsayer:
So your parents can rest in peace.
Shen:
[bitterly] My parents... hated me. Do you understand? They-- they wronged me. And... I will make it right.
Soothsayer:
[sadly] They loved you. They loved you so much that having to send you away killed them.
Shen:
[pause] The dead exist in the past. And I must attend to the future. [to his gorilla guard] Set the Soothsayer free. She is of no use to me.
Soothsayer:
[heartbroken] Goodbye, Shen. I wish you happiness.
Shen:
Happiness... must be taken. And I will take mine.
[The gorilla guard leads the Soothsayer out]
