Mister Miyagi always sounds like he had an answer for everything.
[ This is easier to latch onto, and his remark isn't dishonest: everything about Mister Miyagi has always been about his positives, the way he always had a lesson. And a man who's lived a life like he has, a war hero who moved from one country to another--who could doubt he knows (or knew) a few things?
There's some admiration, to be sure. ]
You know what he gave you? [ ...still, he has to wonder: did it actually work, or did a younger Mister LaRusso just assume it did? Because imagining magical solutions available in a place like this, and anything back home being just as effective, well...
Did the old man just have a secret formula??? (just like how karate people can totally sense others around??) ]
