Terry is honestly much scarier, more sadistic and twisted than Kreese. When Kreese came back, Daniel was no longer intimidated, but when Terry returned he was terrified.

Ofcourse. Terry is still a beast fighter. Daniel knows he can’t beat him and neither can Johnny obviously. Chozen will have to step up big time for the next season

[@captainmarvelous7678]

@@nissy9220 that's not the reason because Daniel hasn't seen him in 35 years, he has no idea if Terry can still fight. He's scared because Terry legit mind fucked him before and he has way more ptsd from him than Kreese, who never actually put his hand on Daniel or did anything but make threats from afar. Whereas Terry invaded his life and relationships and manipulated him like clay.

He just knows he's afraid of him because of past experiences.

[@jessecandiver3391]

I think Terry was jealous of Kreese's soft spot for Johnny. He was bitter that it was always about Johnny and never about bringing back the glory days like he was promised. I love that they humanized him and gave him understandable motivations instead of just being a boring villain.

[@Matt_Moore]

I don’t think Silver was actually jealous. Sure it appeared that way, but that was Silver feigning to get what he wanted. Kreese was playing checkers while Silver played 4D chess.

[@SemiOmni314]

​@@Matt_Moore He's 100% jealous. He was living a happy life, up until Kreese came back, dredged up old war memories and made him feel indebted to Kreese again. He only thought of the idea to frame Kreese after being reprimanded for beating up Johnny. Kreese is a douche, but how many times has he tried to bring Johnny to his side? Why does Johnny get so many freebies from Kreese, while he gets nothing? Silver saw the writing on the wall that Kreese would chose Johnny over him as his any day of the week, and he was fed up with being used.

[@Matt_Moore]

@@SemiOmni314 Maybe… I just think Silver is too cold and calculated to actually feel real jealousy towards Johnny Lawrence. You could be right though. I agree with all the rest you said, except I am not so sure that the Johnny incident was the moment in which Silver began plotting to overthrow Kreese. That plot might have began much earlier, and the fight with Johnny just served to confirm a weakness in Kreese in which Silvery could exploit. Also I don’t think Silver was really happy. He was doped on medication just going through the motions, and realized something was missing from his life.

[@adamcarlson2192]

@@SemiOmni314 Kreese would definitely have thrown Silver under a bus if he was convinced it would get Johnny to rejoin him. For whatever reason, he really did see Johnny as something of a son to him, and even though he's pretty twisted in his parental methods, he really did try to do the best for Johnny. Silver meanwhile is a narcissistic prick who really only does care about himself... he felt indebted to Kreese for having his life saved in Vietnam, but he feels like he's paid that debt back a thousand-fold. Now, all that matters is showing that he's "the best" by having the best dojo, the winning-est dojo. Whatever it takes.

[@adamcarlson2192]

@@Matt_Moore Yeah, I don't think he cared one way or the other about whether Kreese cared about Johnny, except that once he realized the extent of it, he was willing to cut Kreese out of everything from then on out. It was a weakness, and needed to be surgically removed.

[@diamondinthesky4771]

When Kreese reawakened Terry's inner Cobra, he clearly didn't think he would get bit.

[@lesterglenn111]

Kreese had that coming to him he treated terry silver like shit. He kept bringing up the fact he saved him from death. He belittled him all because he lost a bet. You is not suppose to talk to a grow man like that. Terry did the right thing get him out his life. You don't need people like that around you.

[@vicshephard9231]

In Daniel's position, I'd be ready to snuff Silver's flame. He's not a kid anymore.

It wouldn't have backfired if Kreese hadn't had a soft spot for Johnny though. Kreese doing a few good things was ultimately what did him in.

The thing that makes Silvers so dangerous is that he's charming and that charm makes a villain more powerful and more deadly because they know how to out smart the good guys.

[@alanguages]

Silver is willing to go out of his way to get his hands dirty to accomplish his goals. That speaks volumes on his character. He is like Thanos, that he likely would say: "Fine, I'll do it myself."

[@adamcarlson2192]

@@anthonylee5359 Well, that's kinda the Cobra Kai way. But scarily, for the most part, he doesn't need to cheat. He's pretty damn bad-ass just in his skills alone. Miyagi kicks his ass 13/10 times, though.

[@Zurround]

@@anthonylee5359 LIKE WITH JOHNNY?? We do NOT know for certain that he could have won a FAIR fight. He got a brutal free hit in with that surprise attack (ambush) out of the dark and even though Johnny got up his head was probably spinning which reduced his concentration. He actually put up a decent fight, he countered many of Terry's attacks and got some good hits in himself before losing. Terry also had "home court advantage" as he was much more ready for the fight than Johnny was. Its quite possible that Terry was worried that he could not win a FAIR fight so he cheated with the ambush attack which a fighter with honor would never do. Sato in KK2 was only willing to have a fair fight and never would have ambushed Miyagi like that.

I think Silver wanted Daniel’s forgiveness more than he let on based on his facial expressions after Daniel rejects him he walks away after giving Daniel a look of disappointment and when he gets into his car. When he calls him an arrogant little prick he doesn’t do it with a sinister grin, he does it with anger like he’s been hurt

Man, I REALLY thought that he had poisoned Kreese at the end there. He waited and let Kreese drink first, then gave that look. Oh yes, keep doing exactly what I want, it just showed in his eyes. Then Kreese seemed to be slightly... off. He seemed to be staring off into space and a little... sedated. I was SURE that Silver had poisoned him with venom he harvested from the cobra in the dojo. Oh, well. Still a good payoff.

SAME, I thought that was the end of Kreese...

It's kinda like Silver was just messing with the audience. Because he poured them both a drink, toasted, waited for John to drink AND didn't drink. He just sat the drink down after John drank. It was weird.

A sedative would allow him to be captured with minimum officer casualties. Silver is a thoughtful, civic minded citizen.

I think Silver will exploit Stingray a great deal. Stingray is in a LOT more debt to Silver than just being let into Cobra Kai. Let's not forget Stingray assaulting his neighbour. Let's also not forget that he was throwing a party with underage drinkers AND he just got off probation for related matters. Silver's lawyers can keep all of that out of the way whereas if Stingray doesn't do exactly as Silver says, he will be in a world of shit. Silver has Stingray by the balls.

Actually, Terry might be willing to go as far as to kill on a much worse scale because Kreese attempted to kill Johnny in Karate Kid, and in s3, he almost suffocated Johnny again and was going to stab Daniel for intervening. Remember, Kreese left his psychotic Captain to die by letting him fall to his death in a pit of snakes with an already wounded leg. So if Kreese already killed someone before and is willing to do so then Terry, who framed Kreese by nearly killing Stingray while being excellent at preying the opponents weakness; the mind and body is more of a snake than Kreese ever will be. Terry is really terrifying.

Kreese was bad but Silver is worse. I don't know how else to explain but it's like the followers end up taking it further.

Cobra Kai keeps honouring the series' legacy and it honestly makes the original source material even better with each installment instead of cheapening or lessening either experience. I was genuinely impressed when they introduced the idea that the reason Silver was off his rocker and totally loony in the 3rd film was because he was literally off the shits, high as a kite off the cocaine. Like. Wow. It wraps it up perfectly without even trying. The writers from Cobra Kai don't shy away from what the audience perceive as low points of the series, they write around it instead of pretending it didn't exist, something lesser writers love to do because it's easier than doing your research, biting the bullet and putting in some damn effort in the writing room once in a while. Season 3's use of Kreese in Vietnam was also a big winner, making Kreese's stoic performance in the original even more believable and chilling. I can't wait, once again, for the next season. Here's hoping they bring back Julie Pierce. Not that I don't want to see Barnes, but that I'll be even more impressed if they manage to improve on and honour the source material once again with her inclusion.

He was teaching that hitting an opponent when they are at their weakest or when their guard was down was more beneficial than just striking first and blind aggression takes a backseat to preparation and focused retaliation. He had learned something that Kreese hadn't and Kreese was too petty to take some notes. I hate that Kreese fkd up Terry's progression, but it will be interesting to see where he goes from here.

Rumor is Robby is heading off to Mexico with Johnny... which is right for Robby's arc. Kenny and Tory are going to be Terry's paths forward. Keep using Kenny to terrorize Anthony to get at Daniel. Terry's gonna drop a fat stack of cash in front of Tory to get her to keep quiet. It might even come in waves. Like "Let me help you with that"... eventually there will be a feeling of being indebted to him and she'll probably keep playing along. It's possible Sam or Hawk drop Miyagi-Do and pick up Eagle Fang. It'd be a very interesting step to see in Daniel's arc, he's accepted that Sam can forge her own path. So now he can attempt to give guidance on how to teach. Rather than teaching a student. And Sam will get a taste of what it means to have students as she finds her own path. Hawk's story has come full circle. So it should be interesting as to what is in store for him. Him stepping up as a possible teacher for Eagle Fang could also be cool. And we also have Barnes waiting in the wings too. Season 5 is gonna rule

[@derrickhaggard]

Also me and many fans are predicting that Hilary Swank will be possibly joining Cobra Kai S5 reprising her role of Julie Pierce which will be a benefit for the good guys as she's battled against and won against rich villains before with her dealing with Col. Dugan and the Alpha Elite and the various rich girls who bullied her, plus her fusion style of Miyagi-Do Karate, and Chinese Martial Arts will be a big advantage for Daniel and Chozen and the Miyagi-Do students as not only Terry, possibly Mike if he comes back, Stingray, and the Cobra Kai students won't have anyway to defend against it since they've never battled someone proficient in both Karate, and the various Chinese Martial Arts at all, plus she'll be able to teach Daniel, Chozen and the students moves they didn't even think were possible like the Praying Mantis technique, plus she'll be a big help to Amanda in helping Tory get redemption as Julie knows exactly what Tory's been through in her personal life.

[@digenesakritas1107]

Tory is loyal to Kreese not Silver, can see her and Robby joining Eagle-Fang. The Cobra Kai roster will be Shawn (gets out of juvie) Kenny, Kyler, Piper and maybe using the old Silver playbook buying a champion!

[@kartikayysola]

Not so sure about Tory. She was VERY insistent about wanting to win the tournament her own way, and she looked visibly shaken when she overheard Terry bribing that ref. Which means that if Terry gives her money/expensive stuff now, he's just doing it to get something he wants, opposed to someone like Amanda LaRusso who decided to help her of her own accord once Kreese made her aware of Tory's situation. If anything, I think that has planted the seeds of Sam and Tory working past their differences and ultimately burying the hatchet. We've seen her negotiate between Daniel and Johnny before, why not between two girls who both owe something to Amanda?

I posted on a different thread that a great setup for a long overdue "rematch" between Daniel and Mike is for Daniel to have continued lessons from and sparring sessions with Chozen and it gets to a point where every time they spar its Daniel restraining Chozen. Much like Rocky evolving beyond Apollo (symbolized by winning the running race on the beach) Daniel evolves beyond Chozen. It would show progression of his character.

We all watch Cobra Kai for what it is, a lighthearted franchise revival. However, it is quite poignant for such a show to give Terry's descent such a deep take. We all see how he has things sorted but still feels that loneliness and ever since the call from Kreese, the things he buried deep within just resurface. All his rehab is dismantled and the monster is unleashed. He sees that he is still a slave to Kreese and still yearns for his validation and his actions don't have forgiveness as LaRusso still hates his guts. He sees that being apologetic and grateful doesn't quite get end well always. It's quite 'Bojack' of his transformation but from the perspective of let's say Penny. I don't wish this show takes an unnecessary dark route like most revival franchises trying to make their new versions more grittier, but for Terry, I really wish the character is given his dark spiral.

Tory will begin to truly see the light and be conflicted on whether she should stay at Cobra Kai. Maybe she and Sam will become friends, but they’re at least cool with each other now. Anthony now HAS to learn Miyagi-Do to defend himself from the now evil Kenny, and we’ll hopefully see both of their characters redeemed slowly, particularly due to their mutual crush on Lia. They’re gonna have to be mindful to not be mean to each other while she’s around, or else we get Karate Kid 1 all over again 😓 Silver bails out Shawn early and has him join Cobra Kai to keep Kenny loyal to Cobra Kai, causing a rift between Robby and Kenny, and Robby and Shawn. And, I believe Daniel may bail out Kreese to form a temporary alliance with him to take down Silver. Finale: Miyagi-Fang (including Chozen, Robby and Tory, hopefully Kenny and Kreese?) vs. Cobra Kai

[@shadowthehedgehog3113]

TECHNICALLY he wasn't trying to undermine Kreese when he said everyone has a weakness. He only turned against Kreese after he realized nothing he did would ever be good enough for him (basically the episode where he beat up Johnny and Stingray).

[@derrickhaggard]

I think we may see Tory finally earn her redemption in S5 as the final scenes showed she was pissed when she discovered that her victory against Sam in the girls finals of the All-Valley tournament was tainted due to the fact she won the first place trophy via Terry bribing the ref to screw Sam over and essentially ensure Tory wins without her actually earning it via defeating Sam something that Tory made clear she didn't approve of proving despite all of her villainous flaws she still has the good qualities she showed in S2 including now revealing she had a code of honor in that she wanted to win the 1st place trophy yes but win it by actually beating Sam, not by taking the easy way and just have it handed to her via Terry bribing a crooked ref to screw over Sam. But that's just my take. And I think we may if possible actually see Hillary Swank join the cast for S5 reprising the role of Julie Pierce and it is possible considering that considering what happened Daniel is going to need help taking down Terry especially since Johnny is going to be focusing on keeping Miguel safe, and Daniel made it clear that he didn't want to disrupt Chozen's life in Okinawa by having him come to the US so calling the only other Miyagi-Do student who directly trained under Mr. Miyagi that's still in the country that's he's friends with to help out is right now the only choice and yes the creators confirmed Next Karate Kid is canon within the Karate Kid/Cobra Kai timeline along with it being confirmed that it is canon that Daniel and Julie met and befriended each other at Mr. Miyagi's funeral. And Julie has experience dealing with and coming out victorious against rich scumbags like Terry who seemingly can get away with anything due to his bank account via her run-ins with the Alpha Elite, and the various other mean girls at that private school she went to and got suspended from, also Julie can teach Sam, Hawk, Demitri and the other Miyagi-Do students and even Daniel some moves they didn't even realize were possible to do like the Praying Mantis Strike via the fact her style is a fusion of Miyagi-Do Karate, and Chinese Martial Arts including the agile and graceful Chinese Long Fist style a fusion style Terry, Stingray and the others at Cobra Kai won't expect. And as for Julie I think she actually kept her skills sharp by continuing to train after all remember Mr. Miyagi taught her using Angel the female Hawk Julie was caring for as an example stating "A female hawk doesn't let what she was taught by her father be forgotten cause she no longer has use for it she remembers what her father taught her in order to use it when needed while hoping that time never comes." basically teaching Julie that keeping up with her training even though it's not needed is acceptable cause even though she doesn't want to use her martial arts training to fight there could be a time where she has to use her martial arts skills to aid in a fight if such a time comes. Plus Julie returning to aid Daniel, and the other Miyagi-Do students could lead to interesting plot developments for example she could be the one who makes a connection to Tory and help her earn redemption due to the fact she's been where Tory is at and knows exactly what Tory is going through in terms of feeling angry at the world due to seemingly unfair circumstances, and being distrusted and viewed as the troublemaker simply because she's not rich, plus we could get more backstory on Mr. Miyagi's time as a soldier in the US Army's 44th Nisen Division in WW2's European Front cause remember Mr. Miyagi is technically Julie's honorary grandfather, due to viewing her grandfather as his brother when her grandfather saved his life during a battle and in return teaching his new honorary brother Miyagi-Do Karate, resulting in her grandfather teaching her father, and her father teaching her.

He didn't win the tournament tho ;-; he won the boys division

[@bessiewarner2617]

Silver not only has fighting skill, he enjoys doing bad rather than just using bad methods as a means to an end. And on top of all that, he rich as hell and has connections to best use those funds

Props to the writers for bringing back the original CK dojo location. Looking forward to seeing it more in S5

Terry Silver is such a great villain and Thomas Ian Griffith plays him perfectly.

[@TheCynicalOne_]

The fact that he’s a senior citizen, hasn’t practiced karate in ages, and is still super formidable is quite telling

[@jordstev8779]

Terrys a tall dude and those kicks are powerful

[@franciscoramirezespanagarc7974]

I liked when Silver told Daniel that he always knew there as a little of Cobra Kai inside him. It’s true bur Daniel refuses to admit it. I also like the way Terry broke free from Kreese”s hold.

[@kevs7967]

One thing I noticed when watching the season is when Terry let's his hair down freely, he is 'Terrence' who is logical, calm and reasonable. When he has his ponytail, he is violent, aggressive and intimidating.

Terry Silver, terrorizing Gen-X teens in the 80's, and then bossing around the Gen-Z kids of those same teens and turning them against their parents. The old sack of bones really is unredeemable.

[@Dec4AllTimeAlways]

Thomas Ian Griffith is a black belt in taekwondo and kenpo. Cobra Kai needs Terry Silver for as long as possible. Terry will find redemption again like Kreese will. They're not all evil. Just broken from all the bullying.

Silver being on cocaine really does explain his behavior in Karate Kid 3
