Bent on revenge, six months after his utter defeat in The Karate Kid (1984), John Kreese, the disgraced former instructor of Cobra Kai Dojo, reunites with Terry Silver, an old Vietnam War buddy and shady millionaire entrepreneur. In the meantime, Mr Miyagi and Daniel launch a bonsai business venture. However, evil never rests; John and Terry conspire night and day to strip the All-Valley karate champion of his title. To achieve their goal, Mike Barnes, their unscrupulous fighter, will use every trick in the book to bring LaRusso down, thirsty for fame and glory. Now standing at a crossroads, Daniel must keep his eyes peeled for wolves in sheep's clothing and remember where he started. With everything on the line, is a humiliating downfall just around the corner?
