Kung Fu Panda Holiday

Steel yourself against my steel, villain!

Your reign of tears is over! I got the onion, Dad!

I'll get the bok choy! Hyah!

I'll get the radish.

Yah! Chop it fine, son. Chop it fine!

-Carrot!

-Mushrooms.

-Ginger!

-Leeks!

-Garlic!

-Soy sauce!

-Beets!

-No beets.

But I like beets.

Sh. One final ingredient.

Noodles!

One noodle soup!

So delicious!

Yeah.

Dad, this dream is awesome!

It's the noodle dream.

Whoa!

Tai Lung? I thought you were dea...

Wait! Please don't eat my son!

Have some delicious noodle soup.

So delicious!

Don't worry, Dad! I got it under control!

Nooo!

Oof!

Agh!

Rrr... Hyah!

Wait, wait! Where are you going?

We're cooking together!

Sorry, Dad. Evil doesn't take a holiday.

And neither do I.

Goodbye, Dad.

Po, don't go! Don't go, my son!

You can't leave me alone!

I need you.

Aah!

Pooo!

Yah!

-Dad, where'd they go? What'd they look like?

-Po, uh, I was dreaming.

It was awful! We were cooking. But then you left me.

Now, how could you leave me?

Dad, it was just a dream. I'm not going anywhere.

Now come on down. I got all the decorations out.

Oh, thank you, Po. You are such a good son.

Hmm, you owe me 17 yuan for the new door.

Oh, whoa! Right on top.

It's the sun lantern I made when I was a cub.

Do you know why it was on top, Po?

Because I opened the box this summer just to look at it.

I love winter festival so much, sometimes I just can't wait.

Me too. The decorations...

The party games.

The dancing, huh, Dad? The dancing.

BOTH LAUGH

-Whoo!

-Noodles.

Whoo!

Wha... whoa.

Good morning, Dragon Warrior.

I was just practicing my... empty belly defence.

Mr Ping, may I borrow Po for a moment?

Well, actually, we're very busy decorating for the...

Po, I've come to talk to you

about the winter feast at the Jade Palace.

-You will be...

-Be coming!

The winter feast with the kung fu masters from all the provinces?!

No, Po, you will not be invited.

-You will be hosting.

-Me? Ho-o-osting?

-Hoo hoo!

-Wonderful news, is it not?

As the Dragon Warrior,

this is one of your most critical duties.

Wow. Thank you, Shifu.

Po, this is a big opportunity for you.

Your first time with all the kung fu masters.

The winter feast is legendary.

I'll bet you got the best, biggest, brightest sun lanterns and dancing.

Po, stop. Stop. This is the winter feast.

It is perfection. Always elegant.

Always formal.

Awesome. Awesome. I'm all about elegant.

Fancy stuff and fine dinin'.

You have some noodle in your neck fat.

-Hmm? Oh.

-What I'm saying, Po,

is dancing and sun lanterns, those are common traditions.

So common. I mean, dancing? Come on.

Sun lanterns. Weak.

Dad, isn't this great?

Dragon Warrior, please, come quickly! There are bandits at the bridge!

What? I'm on it. See ya, Dad. Thanks again, Master Shifu.

Uh... Oh.

Mr Ping.

Hey, guys!

You excited about the winter feast?

Guess what... Master Shifu just told me I'll be joining you this year. Hyuh!

The feast is intense! All the masters at one table.

One perfect feast.

It's an honour to be invited!

Actually, I'm not just invited.

Hyah! I'm hosting!

-ALL:

-What?

-Wouldn't be my choice.

The feast at the palace is very...

-Elegant.

-Uhh!

It's a very, uh, sophisticated event.

Why does everyone think I can't do sophisticated?

I...have no idea.

It's just that we think maybe you could use a little help.

Tigress, I got this.

It's a dinner... eating, entertainment.

How much do you have to know?

Oof!

There are 18 gestures you must memorize for the right hand,

-19 for the left.

-19 for the right. 19... 18 for the left.

This is Feng, the palace artist.

He will do your official portrait.

Pleased to mee... ew! What?

OK, I'm going to need a do-over.

I think I was blinking.

This is where you will seat all of the kung-fu masters.

My dad is going to love this feast.

You know, he's never even been to the palace.

I am sorry, Po. There are no guests allowed.

I can't bring my dad? But he's my dad.

-We always spend the holiday together.

-I understand, Po.

I remember the day I departed my family

and committed myself entirely to the duties of kung fu.

You are the Dragon Warrior now,

and therefore this is your duty

above all other bonds.

Now...in your quest for perfection,

these instructions must be executed to the letter.

Guard these scrolls containing the ancient recipes.

-Flaked Jasmine, never ground...

-ECHOED STREAM OF WORDS

Learn to chant the traditional greeting of the masters...

Magnificent... The golden ladle.

-Wha...

-Po...Hire a chef.

-Present them with the golden ladle.

-Hmm.

-Do you have any questions?

-Nuh-uh!

-Po, do not let me down.

-Don't worry, Master Shifu,

I got everything under control!

Wha...

ohh.

Ahem!

Master Po, we have brought you

the finest chefs in China.

-You'll sample their dishes and make your choice.

-Yeah!

The chef you select will receive the golden ladle.

-Let us begin.

-All righty!

Master Po, ahem.

I present chef Wo Hop of the Heilongjiang province.

Uh! Sir.

It's a privilege for me and the citizens of my village

-to be considered...

-Hi, Po!

-...for this great...

-Hey.

-Ah! Oh! Aah!

-What just happened?

Oh, um, as host of the festival,

every gesture of yours has meaning.

You just gave him the ancient Hun Shu wave of dismissal.

The what? Is that a thing? It doesn't even sound like a thing.

He has brought great dishonour upon himself and his village,

and they will be shamed for all of eternity.

No, no. I was just waving to Monkey. Can't we just get the rabbit back?

-HE LAUGHS

-Oh... You're serious?

No.

I'll, uh, ahem, I'll get the other chefs.

Wow, this feast is intense, right?

And I just found out that I can't be with my dad.

Wait a minute. Of course!

You're absolutely right. I'll choose my dad.

Then I'll get to spend the holiday with him. Brilliant!

You are good.

Come here, you little...

-Agh!

-OK...

Gotta get rid of these guys.

Hate the food. Hate the food.

-Mmm!

-Huh?

Oh, this...

isn't really what we're looking for.

Ah. No. No.

No. Mmm, no.

No. This isn't really your year.

No. Nope. Nuh-huh.

Nah. No.

Ah. Eh. Mm-mmm.

Ew. Sorry.

-That one really is bad.

-Ohh.

No. No, none of these will do.

I'll take that. Thank you.

Nice try, everyone. See you next year!

Mmm. Awful.

Master Po...

We haven't picked a chef.

Ohh.

The golden ladle.

-Yeah.

-I'm holding it.

-Yeah.

-To be asked to prepare a meal

for all the great kung fu masters. What an extraordinary honour.

-Heh, when is it?

-Tomorrow night.

-Oh, that won't work.

-What? Why?

-Po, that's the holiday!

-Exactly!

Well, I cannot leave the restaurant.

-Why not?

-What about our friends?

What about those lonely people who have no place else to go?

We give them a place to call home.

There's always room for one more at Mr Ping's.

OK, Dad, I appreciate that you care

-for all the lonely people.

-And lonely people pay extra.

But, Dad, I need you. The feast is tomorrow.

I just fired all the best chefs in the land.

Huh! The best chefs in the land, huh?

Really? You think your fancy palace ladle

is better than mine?

This is not my "A" ladle.

Dad, look, I didn't mean that.

It's just I thought this was a way for us to be together

-on the holiday.

-I want us to be together.

But I can't be here! I have responsibilities to Shifu!

So be there with Shifu.

Don't you see my big smiling with happiness for you?

No, no, no. Come on, Dad.

Don't make me feel guilty about this.

What, uh, what do you expect me to do?

I expect you to do the right thing, Po.

Here, son.

You should have this on the holiday.

How could my dad say no?

IMITATING PING: I'd rather you stay here, do my holiday thing with me.

Yeah, fine. Whatever!

Well, what about me, Dad? Now I gotta cook all alone.

-Po.

-Hmm? Huh? Whoa!

-Shifu, hey!

-All alone? You do not have a chef yet?

No, no. Of course I have a chef.

You kidding? No chef? That would be a disaster.

Hmm.

Agh! I gotta get a chef.

-Aah! Agh!

-Pardon me.

Bunny! Oh, awesome. A real chef.

I know we got off to kind of a rocky start, what with me shaming you

in your village for all eternity and whatnot. But if you could start dicing those carrots...

-I am not here to dice carrots. I am here to fight you.

-Huh?

The only way I can lift the veil of shame

is to fight the Dragon Warrior.

Surely I will die,

but it will restore my honour.

-Aaaaah!

-What are you doing?

Ow. Come on, I don't want to hurt you.

Look, Bunny, I get this whole honour thing.

But this isn't kung fu. You're biting me. Ha!

Look, Bu-Bunny. I have enough on my plate between cooking

and my dad guilting me. Get up...

What is it with parents and the holidays?

Sometimes, they love us too much.

But it is not my place to say. It is my place to die.

-Huh!

-Oh, you gotta be kidding me.

-OK.

-How dare you?

-There you go.

-Let me...

-Po, the table is not set.

-Have you started cooking?

-We've all had our fittings.

-Are you ready?

-I'm on it!

Uh-oh, sorry.

Ow!

Wait. Da, da, da. That's not...

Of course he's never here when you need him.

Uh, Po, the vocalist for the band quit.

I've been waiting for this moment my whole life.

Let's just go instrumental.

This is an embarrassment.

Oh, Po!

Whoa!

Ha ha!

-Rrr!

-Ow!

-Bunny!

-Uhh! Sorry.

Yah! Ow!

Whoa!

-Hi, we'd like two...

-We're not open yet! Yaah!

Uhh!

Ooh.

Hah! Aaah!

This is not right.

Ohh!

Aaaah!

Wah! Ahh!

Oh! SMASHING

This is a total disaster.

Now I'm going to disappoint everyone.

My dad, the Furious Five, Shifu.

And me.

I'm not dead yet.

What kind of Dragon Warrior am I if I can't even pull off a dinner?

I guess kung fu can't solve everything.

That's it! Bunny, you're brilliant.

Mantis! Crane! Monkey!

-This may be our greatest challenge ever.

-Bandits?

-Raiders?

No. Place settings.

Tigress, the Tahlia Leap!

On it.

Viper, stars of destiny!

Whoo hoo hoo!

Yeah!

Mantis, pinwheel attack!

Ah, yeah!

You guys are the best.

And you, Bunny,

if you even want me to think about your death with honour,

you're going to have to help me in the kitchen. Let's go!

Hyuh!

Uhh!

Oh!

29 place settings, 40 chopsticks each.

We did it! We did it! Ha ha!

Every detail just right. Even down to the ground jasmine.

Ground jasmine? It was supposed to be flaked.

I'll be right back.

-Hurry.

-The masters are arriving!

I promised Shifu it would be perfeeee...

Ow! Ow! Ah ha! Ow! Wah!

Ohh.

Huh!

Urgh!

-Happy feast.

-Yeah, same to you.

Whoa, hey, hey. Look out.

Dragon Warrior coming through.

OK, hurry, Po. Hurry, Po.

You made it.

Of course. I'd never miss it.

Ahh.

It looks so yummy. I want to go first!

-Eat up.

-Here you go.

That's the one I want. Oh!

Thanks, Daddy.

Beautiful.

Elegant.

Perfect.

You've made me proud.

All 29 kung fu schools

and their masters.

Excellent, excellent.

TAPPING THEIR BOWLS

TAPPING GETS FASTER

Po!

Ahem.

Dragon Warrior,

would you honour us by reciting

the opening words to the creed of the masters?

Po.

I can't, Master Shifu.

I thought you might forget the words, Po,

so I took the liberty of writing them on your napkin.

Let me just... That's not it.

HE SIGHS No, no, everyone, please.

OK, please, no... you don't have to...

OK, well, they're off.

Anyway, um, let me just say something.

The creed of the masters is amazing.

It's like the coolest creed ever.

And, you masters, how cool are you guys? I don't even know how to tell you.

Master Rhino? Forget about it.

You're more awesomely skilled and, you know,

wrinkly than I'd ever dreamed you'd be.

And, uh, Master Sheep,

-fluffy and incredible.

-Mm-hmm, it's true.

Uh, the five. It's just...

Such an honour to be here with all you guys.

My heroes.

But every feast,

my dad and I spend all day cooking together.

And the whole neighbourhood shows up.

And it gets really loud and crazy,

and my Uncle Yang ends up laughing so hard noodles spurt out his nose.

-I'd like to see that.

-Me too.

So, uh, I wish I could stay and...

be a good host, but...

I think I need to leave

and...

be a good son.

-What's going on?

-What are we supposed to...

Po! Come back here!

Ah, I used to love cooking with my sisters.

The folk dances.

-Games. The music.

-Whoa. Wait.

What about our traditions? Who will recite the creed?

Somebody do something!

HE MAKES A WAILING ATTEMPT AT SINGING

Urgh!

-Whoa-oh-oh!

-I got that, Dad.

Po?

Ah. You came!

Oh, Po, I'm... I'm sorry I made you feel so guilty.

Nah, don't be.

That's what the holidays are all about.

Now, don't we have some cookin' to do?

ALL: Aaaahh.

Mmm. Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.

It needs...

-BOTH:

-Garlic.

Table for five.

ALL: Hey. Hey, Po.

Love your soup, Pig.

-You guys! Welcome!

-Happy holiday, Po.

-The more the merrier.

-Thank you, Mr Ping.

The little one pays full price, but eats like a child.

Welcome!

Master Rhino, come sit with me!

Whoa.

Yee yee yee yee yee!

-Master Wo Hop.

-Ohh!

-I believe this belongs to you.

The golden ladle?

Thank you, Dragon Warrior.

Now I have restored my honour and the honour of my village.

Ha ha!

Glad to be of help.

Ha ha!

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy. It is Uncle Yang.

Oh, Po, why did you ruin something that was perfect? I don't understand.

Come back here!

Ohh.

Then the crocodile thief pounced.

THE KIDS SCREAM

Peek-a-boo!

I'm going to get you.

-Oh, Po?

-I got you, Dad.

THEY LAUGH

-HE SIGHS

-This...is perfect.

There's always room for one more at Mr Ping's.

Oh, n-no. I really don't want to disturb anyone.

-You go and enjoy your party.

-I'm not going to enjoy it without you.

Oh, no, I couldn't. These are your people.

This is your family.

You're my family too, Shifu. Now, come on.

-That soup does smell delicious.

-Po, wait.

What goes on in your head, I really don't always understand.

But what goes on in your heart will never let us down.

Thanks, Shifu. Come on.

-Hey, guys, look who's here!

-It's the master.

-Master Shifu!

Maser Shifu is here!

It's good to see you, Master Shifu.

And it's good to be here, Mr Ping.

Thanks for coming, everyone.

Watch out, little one.
