Frank Dux:
Shingo and I were close friends. Brothers. And you and Mrs. Tanaka have treated me like a son. What will happen now?
Tanaka:
No more training. Stop now.
Frank Dux:
[
shakes his head] But you have so much to teach.
Tanaka:
You don't understand. During the war, I lost my first family. My son, daughter, and wife. I left Japan because of the war. War was wrong. I came to America to start over, to have a new family, and a son. For 2,000 the teachings passed, father to son, father to son. When Shingo died, it stopped.
Frank Dux:
Teach me. I can do it.
Tanaka:
You are not Japanese! You are not a Tanaka!
Frank Dux:
You told me to use any tactic that works, never to commit yourself to one style, to keep an open mind!
Tanaka:
Why?
Frank Dux:
To honor you, shidoshi.
