Amanda reflects how Tory has been through a lot of pain, and even though it doesn’t give her reason to be bad but it makes her more human. It was actually surprising and very thoughtful for Amanda to help her before it actually is to late.
Things in life affect people different. It can make them do good things, it can make them do bad things, but as long, or at the end of the day we own up and admit our wrong doings.

@@Willow-mo Often a bad life and history are responsible for certain people being troubled and going bad themselves. We cannot condone and condemn people justly without knowing and understanding what they have been through in their life and history.
I loved getting some backstory from Amanda. I already loved her but I would love to see even more about her past and how it affects her decisions in adulthood. I thought it was very thoughtful of her to help Tory even though she knows that her and Sam aren’t on good terms.
Like I mentioned in the past to many people. You don't really understand someone's situation unless you can relate. If you can't relate, you can't know how it feels.
If that happened, cobra kai would have finished in half of S3, because if Amanda called to Georgie and told him about what happened in the arcade, He would have gone in a truck with a rifle and his cowboy hat ... because nobody messes with Texas and since Georgie is also a wealthy man, he would have gotten rid of the accusation of assault against Kreese
I really wish the writers would give Carmen and Shannon this kind of depth and screentime. They both have interesting backstories and are portrayed by talented actresses.
It would've been interesting to see what happened in the marriage between Carmen and Miguel's dad. And also I am kind of curious to see what led to Shannon being an alcoholic; which one could assume it was Johnny first not being there for Robby or something deeper than that.
I'm so glad Amanda is getting more fleshed out as a character It was already great seeing her realize just how bad of an influence Cobra Kai is but seeing her relate to Tory and taking a direct approach in reducing Cobra Kai's influence is even better
Damn this was tense! Never knew this was Amanda’s background!! Although I’m so very happy she didn’t let this ruin her. She didn’t let this define her. Now we know why she’s so quick to help people,especially Tory. It’s almost inspiring. 🙌🙌
*Amanda is just an amazingly real character* *She doesn't care about the rivalry or karate* *Or hold on to grudges* *She just sees people for what they are "people"*
Amanda isn’t Tory though. All situations are different. I would feel like my mother was gambling with my safety on the off chance Tory could change, with no safeguards in place. That’s a betrayal.
"misdemeanor reckless endangerment" Yeah, Amanda is lucky, because I'm pretty sure in real life attacking someone in their car with a bat would either be assault with a deadly weapon or attempted murder.
I was waiting for somebody to upload this scene. This gave me a whole new perspective on Amanda. All this time, I believed Amanda was so perfect n prissy, good for her opening up. Too bad Samantha didnt stick around for this story, but then Sammi wouldve just brushed it off as another "sob story from a bully", cant blame her after everything shes been thru. Just hope Amanda's story does get thru to Sammi b4 it's too late.
@@benhamilton1156 I get the feeling the relationship between Sam and Miguel will strain a bit because I saw how both were looking at Robby and Tory during prom with longing it was like both still held some feelings for their ex.
@@H.K.5 Daniel loves Miyagi more than his own wife. There should be no secrets between a husband and wife. He's more concerned about the infractions of his old building's handyman who taught him how to do dance moves on the beach
This revelation from Amanda shows why she's forgiving towards Tory AND even Robby. Even when Daniel was upset with him, Amanda could relate to his troubles and his willingness to change as we saw in the episode where they are at the country club. She defended him at the first tournament when Daniel didn't want anything to do with him at first. I want to see Amanda kick some ass too! 😆
Man, thanks for posting this. I'm surprised nobody else pulled this clip from the show. I loved this scene, when she talks about how Tory getting the same messages the same exact way, not going to lie I got a little choked up. It does make me sympathize with Tory.
I hope in the last season (6) Tory turns into a face. That's a tough life taking care of her mom who's bedridden and a little brother. And having a job to try to pay the bills, and at the same time training to be a karate champion. While trying to not flunk out of high school.
Ahh! I should've figured. I actually guessed it from the title of the video. It makes sense why she would try to help her. She was fortunate and she hoped to pass it on.
Can’t believe this convinces Daniel to literally gamble with Sam’s safety on the off chance Tory could change. Ffs dude this girl broke into your house and tried to kill your daughter TWICE. Get people to monitor Tory’s behaviour for the first month she’s back, do something that shows you love your daughter and wouldn’t roll her dice on her safety.
Ironic that Amanda expected Daniel and Sam to listen to her when she doesn't listen to them. In season 5 she acted unreasonable claiming that Daniel was obsessed with his rivalry with Silver when she never bothered to ask what Silver did to him. She was also unrealistic thinking that just because Tory did what she asked that things would go back to normal just like that *snap* when she ignored the fact that Cobra Kai was composed of more than just Tory.
That is one of the things that frustrated me about her character. She has her good moments like this but she also has a lot of bad ones where her and Daniel seem to be on entirely different wavelengths and dare I say incompatible. Especially at the charity auction when silver played them like a damn fiddle and stirred things up between them, and so easily. She just instantly believed every word he told her about Daniel and was convinced he was the bad guy and was ready to leave him without even hearing his defense. That was Amanda at her worst for me.
Gambling with your daughter’s safety and expecting her to deal with someone who tried to murder her twice is a betrayal of trust and terrible parenting.
Well I guess that story of her past is what makes here the voice of the reason in this show. Bc Amanda knows exactly how it feels like to be in Tory's shoes. Although they had 2 different situations. Both Amanda and Tory have a criminal record. Luckily for Amanda, her incident didn't ruin her life, so she is trynna help Tory so that Tory's life doesn't get ruined. Plus having a criminal record is not that bad, but that depends on what you did.
Funny, Amanda wasn't the voice of reason in season 5 when she wouldn't hear Daniel out on his past with Silver. She expected Daniel to listen to her about Tory when she compared sob stories, but she wouldn't bother to ask Daniel what Terry Silver did to him, and her cousin had to be the one to give her a wake-up call.
Amanda confessed to Daniel about her father's secret affair with the math tutor but she neglected to tell him about her mother's previous adultery with a handsome yoga instructor named Twig.
I'm sorry,but none of this excuses how Sam acted at Tori's new Job. Amanda should've slapped Sam across the back of her head and settled the feud between her and Tori after she witnessed Sam tormenting her while she was on the Job and after Kreese informed her of both her Financial situation and Lack of a Mother figure in Tori's life compared to the Vast Amount of Opportunities they've been able to Bless Sam with.
You understand it's difficult to feel sympathetic towards the girl who put your daughter in the hospital and broke into your home? She said it herself Sam has a right to be angry.
@@geraldjames7719 Maybe if Sam didnt accuse Tory of stealing and go around kissing her boyfriend maybe she wouldn't have had to go to the hospital lmao
I struggle with this still tho because I've been thru exactly what Tory has and I never tried to kill a classmate for being a bitch to me. Why does that make Tory more sympathetic? It makes her more unstable in my opinion because obviously she's cracking under all of the pressure.
It means that Tory needs someone to take a more active role in her life. If she's cracking under the pressure that means she can't handle things by herself. People are feeling sympathy for her because, for the first time we see her making a real effort to move past her destructive tendencies

@@xxwhispersxx2856 That's just part of Amanda's character; she was once a confused and angry teenage girl, so she can relate to Tory. Suddenly the situation changed from her daughter being a victim, to there being two victims.

I didn’t. She avoided the answer. This is not why she wanted to help Tory. She got her fired is why she wanted to help. Not only that, she let sam harass harass her not only at her SECOND job, but in her own home
@@nevermore7285 Amanda was there to intimidate and threaten Tory to tell her to stay away. She reacted emotionally to being threatened and intimidated, like anyone would. There was no way she wouldn’t get upset and lash out

Because her parenting here is terrible. Just let your daughter think you’re gambling with her safety on the word of someone who tried to kill her. Twice.
Is that actually misdemeanor reckless endangerment? I'm pretty sure no judge would let the charge be lowered when she beat someones car with a bat while the person was inside. That would cause more than $500 in damage so even destruction of property would have been a felonious charge. Thats just a plot device, something that can have an impact without having the impact be a crater... being a felon follows you for the rest of your life.
It is the job if the District Attorney to bring about charges and yes they do this all the time. I have even seen sex and battery charges be brought down to lower charges. It is very realistic seeing as she is white, female, young, and most likely a first time offender.
@@poker8100 Amanda’s one of my favourite characters and her actress is how I discovered the show and entire Karate Kid franchise … and I thus didn’t expect all this for her.
Yeah, shoehorning this backstory in after showing she’s a reasonable person is a cop-out way of trying to make Tory sympathetic. She tried to kill Sam twice, no mother would gamble with her daughter’s safety like this.
They had Sam’s parents gamble with their daughter’s safety and made her feel like they don’t love her on the off chance a psycho who tried to kill her could change. That wouldn’t happen.
Well Sam is a bit more like Daniel than Amanda. I believe Daniel was admitting to Amanda that he himself needs a wake up call to change course in his own way.
Amanda now needs a language arts tutor. Or maybe just look on Google the definition of the word "prank". That wasn't a prank Amanda, that was a felony!😅
@@Heraldo_Del_Mar didn't you hear she ask Daniel if he remembers about her "prank" and Daniel saying "sure, it was a highschool prank..."?

@@Heraldo_Del_Mar I would tell the truth after probably getting married. But it doesn't really matter what I would have done.

Miguel mentioned that his dad was on something which is why both his parents had split up. Terry said that he was on drugs back in Karate Kid 3, so I'm pretty sure that Terry Silver is his dad
@@issacalleyne8665 Incorrect, go watch season 4 again and you'll see that his mom said that the father doesn't even know that Miguel exists, so Miguel has never met his dad. It would be hard to id him if he's never seen him before

Thats just a plot device, something that can have an impact without having the impact be a crater... being a felon follows you for the rest of your life.
It is the job if the District Attorney to bring about charges and yes they do this all the time. I have even seen sex and battery charges be brought down to lower charges. It is very realistic seeing as she is white, female, young, and most likely a first time offender.
I completely hate this entire backstory of Amanda!
Why tho
@@poker8100 Amanda’s one of my favourite characters and her actress is how I discovered the show and entire Karate Kid franchise … and I thus didn’t expect all this for her.
Yeah, shoehorning this backstory in after showing she’s a reasonable person is a cop-out way of trying to make Tory sympathetic. She tried to kill Sam twice, no mother would gamble with her daughter’s safety like this.
Lets report this for copy right as it is not used for fair use
Amanda is just tired of being laughed at by members of her country club.
I hate the writers
What do you have against The Big 3?
They had Sam’s parents gamble with their daughter’s safety and made her feel like they don’t love her on the off chance a psycho who tried to kill her could change. That wouldn’t happen.
Ending will be. Tory ends up like Amanda and Miguel like Daniel and they end up together.
Come on, guys. Everyone in this show would be in jail by now if there was an ounce of realism to any of this. Wake up!
In this episode I loved Amanda more than ever
But being honest ... I like Amanda but I hate Sam
+Heidy Vanesa Merchán Screw you for hating Sam!
Well Sam is a bit more like Daniel than Amanda. I believe Daniel was admitting to Amanda that he himself needs a wake up call to change course in his own way.
Amanda now needs a language arts tutor. Or maybe just look on Google the definition of the word "prank". That wasn't a prank Amanda, that was a felony!😅
Smh. 😓 Did you not hear her say that it's not something she brings up on a first date, or any date?
@@Heraldo_Del_Mar didn't you hear she ask Daniel if he remembers about her "prank" and Daniel saying "sure, it was a highschool prank..."?
The problem is that Amanda didn't tell Daniel the whole story.Surely that is not something to say in a date, but they have been married for about 16 years, she had plenty of opportunities to be honest with him.
@@celinreyes1983 Still, she had her reasons to put it behind her. What would you've done.
@@Heraldo_Del_Mar I would tell the truth after probably getting married. But it doesn't really matter what I would have done. I just wanted to express in a funny way how I would have reacted if I was Daniel. My comment wasn't meant to be taken seriously. Now if you have a crush on Amanda I totally apologize😅
Thank you for pointing that out. Mr Captain Obvious. Next thing you're going to say is that we're commenting on RUclips
Miguel mentioned that his dad was on something which is why both his parents had split up. Terry said that he was on drugs back in Karate Kid 3, so I'm pretty sure that Terry Silver is his dad
Could be
I doubt it Miguel mom would have seen him in the tournament when he announced to the audience about cobra kai
Silver is 100 percent NOT Miguel's dad. Miguel knows his dad's identity and knows he's in Mexico.
@@issacalleyne8665 Incorrect, go watch season 4 again and you'll see that his mom said that the father doesn't even know that Miguel exists, so Miguel has never met his dad. It would be hard to id him if he's never seen him before
@@awabbelghith2885 It's possible that she knew Silver is the father and just wants nothing to do with him which could explain why she never said anything about him
