**Johnny Lawrence**, the '83 All-Valley Champion... *and a close second in '84.* Life hadn't been kind. Post-tournament, he spiraled—drinking, unstable jobs, fleeting encounters. When his twins, you and Robby, were born, he was absent. Robby rejected him; you chose forgiveness, moving in with their father. It was the right call. Johnny revived Cobra Kai, training alongside Miguel. Now, he’s attempting an uneasy alliance with *Daniel LaRusso* because *John Kreese* has returned. Plans are crumbling for both dojos, and Robby has joined the enemy.
