Chapter 17 - Kung Broken

Diner 

(Thomas, Timmy, Freddie, and Mark)

(Waitress walks over)

Waitress: Ok gentlemen, what do you want to order?

Thomas: Fries and burgers, and don't forget the condiments so they can ketchup (laughs).

Waitress: Very clever joke.

Timmy: A piece of toast and water.

Waitress: Will like it cold or room temperature.

Waitress: Well it doesn't matter either even way because depending how fast I drink it, it will be room temperature.

Waitress: Ok.

Mark: I'll have the chicken.

Waitress: What about you?

Freddie: I will have the sweet thing in front of me and the pie.

(Waitress walks away)

Thomas: I'mguessing the only thing you're getting that sweet is the pie (laughs).

Freddie: Not funny.

Mark: He's right most of Freddie's rejection are more funnier, especially if they have boyfriends (laughs).

Freddie: Hey, is it my fault that I share common taste of women with other guys.

Thomas: Dude you barely even get to smell it, let alone get a taste.

(Thomas and Mark laugh)

Mark: That's your best joke ever.

Timmy: I think your to being unrealistic and unfair comparing Freddie's love life with food.

Freddie: Thank you, Freddie.

Timmy: He pays to get the food first but for none single girls he pays after.

(Mark and Thomas laugh harder)

Mark: You can say that again.

Freddie: Remind me Mark why are we friends.

Mark: Ah come on Freddie we need each other. If I didn't defend you from the guys that went after you,  for hitting their girlfriends, I would've been able get better at karate then I am know. Plus other times I saved you.

Timmy: Don't you have karate tournament coming up.

Mark: Yeah they are having tryouts this Friday and I'm going to nail them.

Freddie: Ego much.

(Three robbers come from the door)

Robber 1: Every on the ground.

(Every get on the ground)

(One robber grabs the waitress)

Robber 2: Where's the money?

Freddie: Hey pick up someone your own size, or in this case someone closer to it.

Thomas: Freddie, what are you doing?

Freddie: Proving I don't need Mark's help.

(Robber 2 pushes Freddie to the ground)

Timmy: You're proving the opposite.

Mark: Over here.

(Mark pushes robber 2 in the face)

Mark: You should give up now.

(Mark beats up to other robbers with karate)

Robber 3: Why you little.

Thomas: Heads up.

(Thomas throws a head of lettuce under robber 3 feet making him fall)

(Timmy smashes a plate over his head knocking him out)

Thomas: Or in this case heads down (laughs).

Timmy: Literally in this situation.

(Mark flips the last two robbers to the ground)

Mark: That was quick, even for me.

(Everybody cheers)

Waitress: You three are heroes, especially you. Are you seeing anyone?

Mark: Not recently.

Freddie: Hey, what about me?

Timmy: Don't worry Freddie you helped. If you didn't get pushed to the ground like a toy Mark wouldn't have got a chance to attack.

Thomas: And people call me a big distraction.

(Robber 2 to gets back up and pulls out a pipe)

Mark: Look out.

(Mark blocks the pipe his right hand then kicks the robber to the wall)

(Mark hand injured)

(Few minutes later)

(Cops arresting the robbers)

(Paramedic raping Mark's wrist)

Mark: Is it bad?

Paramedic: Well nothing broken but you should be careful with it for the next couple of days.

Thomas: Well Mark it looks like your Kung Broken (laughs).

(Everybody looking at Thomas)

Thomas: Too soon.

Mark: Miss please tell me I'm able to use it in the next two days.

Paramedic: I'm afraid not. Just make sure to use ice and rest for it for the next four days and it will be good as new.

(Paramedic leaves)

Mark: Guess you have to help me.

Freddie: What happened to you being the best of everything.

Thomas: Dude we can't magically repair your hand.

Mark: No but you three can help me hide from my parents and teachers from school, until tryouts.

Timmy: Mark the odds of us hiding your injury, your passing tryouts, and your hand not getting permit damage is 00000.1%.

Mark: I'll take those odds.

Lee House

(Mark, Timmy, and Freddie sitting on the couch)

(Thomas walking in)

Thomas: I talked to dad, he said you can sleep over.

Mark: Good, I pull out my phone and talk to my parents about staying here tonight, so they won't see my hand. 

Thomas: Probably should use your good hand.

Timmy: I still can't believe you are doing all this so you are a martial art tournament.

Mark: Karate is my life. I would rather die.

Thomas: You halfway there already, your hand is already mummified (laughs).

Freddie: Well you three can go through this stupid all by yourself.

Thomas: You're not going to help.

Freddie: Is never going to work. Mark is just being stubborn and pig headed as usual.

Mark: If you really think that then leave.

Freddie: Two steps ahead of you.

(Freddie leaves)

Thomas: We really need extra hands now (laughs).

Mark: Thomas your friend and I'm grateful you're helping me but if you make one more hand joke I'll punch you with my good one.

Thomas: Ok I'll stop. Timmy gave him a hand upstairs (laugh) ok that was by accident.

Madison High School 

(Thomas, Mark, and Timmy in class)

Mark: No once paying attention to me.

Timmy: No, just keep your badges covered by your sleeve.

Thomas: Are sure you can still practice.

Mark: Of course tryouts are tomorrow I'm sure my hand will be better than.

(School Speaker)

Announcer: Attention students, the baseball coach broke his leg and can't do practice today. So the gym is free for karate tryouts after school.

Timmy: Well that's really inconvenient.

Otto Shop

(Freddie works on a engine)

(Thomas and Timmy walks in)

Thomas: Talk about heavy metal (laughs).

Timmy: How long did you think of that?

Thomas: Nothing wrong with the classics.

Freddie: What do you guys want.

Thomas: Mark tryouts were moved today we have to do something.

Freddie: Why should I help? Apparently to him I'm just a fool who he has saved all the time.

Thomas: Come on that's not what I meant.

Freddie: How do you know.

Timmy: Because you two are like us.

Freddie: Hard to break it to you but me and Mark are not brothers.

Timmy: Well despite that you both argue like us but still hangout and have fun.

Thomas: Wow that was deep bro.

Timmy: I just analyzed Mark and Freddie behavior which matches our relationship.

Freddie: Well I'm not some can math problem. Can you two just leave?

(Timmy and Thomas leave)

(Freddie thinks to himself)

Joy Bowl

(Thomas, Timmy, Mark, and Freddie sitting down)

Mark: After sprinkler system wet the gym they had to change the rest of the tryouts Monday.

Timmy: That should give you plenty of time to heal.

Thomas: Lucky for you that fire alarm malfunctioned.

Freddie: Luck had nothing to do with it.

Mark: You did that, how?

Freddie: Otto shop gives you a lot of tips on how to mess with machines without getting noticed. I guess we're even now.

Mark: I guess we are, high five.

(Mark and Freddie high five hurting Mark's hand and making him scream.

Thomas: More like high cry (laughs), sorry.
