"They did what!" Jenny yelled into her phone as she was having a lunch date with Jessie Bobby's wife. They meet up once a week to commiserate over having stubborn husbands and equally stubborn children. The only reason she agreed to Jimmy's hairbrained idea was because Bobby would keep their shenanigans to a minimum.
"They got into a pub brawl and then Tommy died while camping." She explained to Jessie who was six months pregnant with her fourth and final child. Jessie rolled her eyes and let out an exasperated sigh. "Tell me they at least won?" Jenny chuckled as she repeated the question to Johnny.
"Yeah we did, didn't think those old men could still move like that." Johnny explained as she put it on speaker.
"Hey now Bobby knows plenty of ...moves." Jessie smirked at the choked snicker coming from Johnny's end.
Their was a pause as someone grabbed Johnny's phone and put it on speaker. "I may be a Pastor now but I'm still bad ass!" Bobby snickered into the phone.
"You sure are babes!" Jessie giggled. Jenny didn't know why she put up with the pervy younger woman. She brought out the child in Bobby.
"So whose going to tell Dutch?" Jenny asked, immediately sobering up the atmosphere.
"We're on our way now." Jimmy answered.

Dutch had a bad feeling when he woke up in his cell. He wasn't a superstitious man, or a particularly sentimental one. But there were two things he cared about; his best friends and his appeals to get paroled.
The last ten years he had a lot of time to think about his past and the many mistakes he's made since his teens. He regretted taking Karate lessons from Kreese. That man messed with his head programming him to win at any costs, hence the reason he wound up behind bars. "You have visitors!" The guard he was on good terms with spoke as another guard unlocked his cell after securing him they led him to the visitors center. He expected to see Bobby or Jimmy, his most frequent visitors ever since Tommy became sick. But seeing Johnny there with a grim look on his face told him that it wasn't good.
"He died didn't he." To his dying day he'll deny the tears that fell down his cheeks.
"Just last night while we were camping." Bobby explained after a brief pause.
"So what else has been going on in your lives?" He asked to distract himself from his grief for a little while at least. They took turns updating him on their lives.
"Watch your back around the old prick! Some people can change, but not him." Dutch warned the most vulnerable of his friends.
"You didn't say anything about me reopening Cobra Kai?" Johnny asked suspiciously.
"You're not Kreese, you won't poison their minds the way he did ours….Besides it'll drive the car salesman nuts." While he and the other Cobras outside of Johnny are on decent terms, it was fun taking him down a few pegs.
"He opened up Myagi-do in response." Dutch shared a commiserating look with Bobby and Jimmy he knew the LawRusso feud was going to get messy.
"Make sure the feud doesn't get out of hand." Dutch didn't want Johnny to end up in the cell next to his.
"I'll keep better tabs on him. The Arch diocese wants me to relocate to Encino." Dutch wasn't surprised his friend became a pastor. He was the comparatively even tempered one in the group.
"Does Jessie know?" He barely knew the feisty younger woman before he screwed his own life up. But she left quite the impression on him. The way his friend paled told him the answer.
"I'll tell her tonight."

"They want you to relocate to Encino." Jessie stated more than asked. After twenty years she could read her husband like a book. Besides the senior pastor let it slip.
"Who told you?" The calm tone he used told her he was close to snapping and turning back into the angry man she met at work twenty one years ago. Then he turned to the church and became the good man she loves to pieces.
"Robert, but it's cool, this way you can be closer to Johnny." Jessie liked the man, he has zero filter just like she did.
"And nip the feud in the bud before it ruins lives." Jessie continued though from what she's seen on the internet it's already bad.
"What about the kids, they'll be leaving their friends." Well Anna and Alexis will be pissed, the twins were popular with the boys, not that Bobby knows. Jacob will be glad to get away from the toxic atmosphere of his junior high.
"They'll just have to get over it." She was putting her foot down on that one. The move would put her away from the only real friend she has but it'll be worth it in the end.
"I love you." She giggled, their baby squatting on her bladder was proof enough of that.
"So when is the funeral?" She fought back her tears as she saw the pain in her husband's eyes.
"Friday." She turned the burner off and hugged Bobby.
