Dialogue

 * [First lines; Oogway meditates in the Spirit Realm on a floating rock island with a tree]
 * Oogway: Inner peace. Inner peace. Inner peace. [a peach blossom petal lands on his nose] Itchy nose. [gently blows it away, but as he breathes in, it flies back into his nostril, and he sneezes, causing it to fly off] Finally, inner peace. [out of nowhere, a green blade on a chain zooms toward him] Now, what? [catches the blade in front of his chest. Another blade on a chain tumbles from the sky. He bats the first one, causing them to collide] Kai, old friend.
 * [Kai, a massive bull with a horned hat, stands on another floating rock island]
 * Kai: Master Oogway.
 * Oogway: Our battle ended 500 years ago!
 * Kai: Well, now I'm ready for a rematch.
 * Oogway: Took you long enough! [laughs. Kai angrily charges at him, cutting through the floating rocks between them, but he manages to dodge. Just as Kai lands on the island, he leaps up] You've grown stronger. [draws a golden Chinese character with his yin-yang tipped staff and pushes it to Kai. It breaks on top of him]
 * Kai: 500 years in the Spirit Realm, you pick up a thing or two. [indicates his collection of green discs] I have taken the chi of every Master here!
 * Oogway: [gasps] No!
 * Kai: Yes! And soon, I will have your power, too!
 * Oogway: When will you realize? The more you take, the less you have. [Kai chucks his blades into two boulders, then pulls himself up as Oogway spins his staff, creating a yin-yang forcefield. Kai smashes the boulders together on top of Oogway, and the forcefield dissipates. Oogway gapes as the chains wrap around his body, and Kai pulls him down]
 * Kai: With your chi, I will finally be able to return to the mortal world. [his hands glow green] And this time, you won't be there to stop me.
 * Oogway: [warmly] Ahh...it was never my destiny to stop you. I have set another on that path. [gets engulfed in green, then shrinks into a disc, which Kai catches]
 * Kai: Then I will find him, and take his chi, too.


 * Po: Justice is about to be served! [jumps into the air, leaping downstairs as the movie's title card appears, the Furious Five follow him and land in Mr. Ping's Noodle Ship with dramatic poses] We'll have two justice platters, please.
 * [Mr. Ping writes down their orders on his notepad]
 * Monkey: Three.
 * Crane: And a few tofu buns.
 * Po: Oh, and the spicy noodle soup for Tigress. [to Tigress] Did you want extra sauce with that?
 * Monkey: She wants it on the side.
 * Tigress: On the side.
 * Po: On the side.


 * Shifu: My final class because from now on, your training will be in the hands of the Dragon Warrior. [points his staff at Po]
 * Po: [nods and smiles for a second, then reacts in realization of shock; voice booming] WHAT?! [almost knocks Shifu back] Me, teach? I mean, why not Tigress? She's always telling everyone what to do.
 * Tigress: Be quiet, Po.
 * Po: See what I mean?
 * Shifu: Tigress is not the Dragon Warrior. You are.
 * Po: Come on, they're the Five! What can I teach them?


 * [The Furious Five are battered and burned in the training hall after Po failed to train them properly by winding up his words]
 * Viper: [weakly] Good job, Po.
 * Po: [nervously] Did you at least learn a little something?
 * Tigress: [injured and burned; annoyingly] Yes. That you can't teach.
 * Crane: And Tigress is flammable, turns out.


 * Shifu: I'm not trying to turn you into me. I'm trying to turn you into you.


 * Po: Who are you?
 * Li Shan: [muffling] I'm Li Shan.
 * Po: What?
 * Li: [swallows] I'm Li Shan, and I'm looking for my son.
 * [Everybody gasps]
 * Po: You lost your son?
 * Li: Yes. Many years ago.
 * Po: I lost my father.
 * Li: I'm very sorry.
 * Po: Thank you. [pause]
 * Li: Well, good luck to you.
 * Po: You too. I hope you find your son.
 * Li: And I hope you find your father. [they both walk off, everyone face palms, but they stopped with realization] Son? Oh, my gosh, it is you! Well, don’t just stand there. Give your old man a hug.
 * [Po hugs his real dad, much to Mr. Ping's shock]


 * [With Oogway's chi, Kai departs the Spirit Realm, and appears in a field; 2 farmers, a rabbit and a goose, cower in fear at him]
 * Kai: What is this place?
 * Rabbit: [uneasily] Uh, my brother's farm?
 * Kai: Ah. If I stepped on you, would you die? [both cower. The goose, terrified, lays a pile of eggs]
 * Rabbit: Yes?
 * Kai: The Mortal Realm. [to the jade pendant of Oogway around his neck] You hear that, Oogway? I'm back! KAI HAS RETURNED!!!
 * Rabbit and Goose: [confused] Who?
 * Kai: Kai. General Kai, supreme Warlord of all China!
 * Goose: I don't know.
 * Kai: The Jade Slayer, Master of Pain, You may know me as "the Beast of Vengeance". [still no reaction] Uh...Maker of Widows?
 * Goose: Huh?
 * Kai: [exasperated] Okay, I used to work with Oogway-
 * Rabbit and Goose: Oh, Master Oogway!
 * Goose: He was a great warrior!
 * Rabbit: We've heard of Master Oogway, he's a-
 * Kai: [cutting them off] OK, OK. Enough. SILENCE!!!


 * [At the Jade Palace, Po, Shifu, and the Five are all in the scroll library, searching for some knowledge about Kai after their fight with his Jade zombies]
 * Shifu: [searching] Kai. Kai. Where is it? There's so much wisdom in here, I can't find anything. [finds a jade scroll] Yes. Behold. All the answers will be found within. [unveils the scroll] What? It's blank? Are you kidding me?! Not again! Wait, wait. Hold on. Sorry. Oh, ok, here we go. It's written in Oogway's hand. [reading] "Long ago, I had a brother…"
 * Monkey: Oogway had a brother?
 * Shifu: In arms. In arms. Sorry. He says, Brother-in-arms.
 * Mantis: Can you just unroll it all at once?
 * Shifu & Oogway: [in unison] "I was an ambitious young warrior…"
 * Oogway: [narrating] …leading a great army. And fighting by my side was Kai, my closest friend. One day, we were ambushed. I was badly wounded. My friend carried me for days, looking for help, until we came to a secret village, high in the mountains. An ancient place of healing. A village of pandas.
 * [Shifu, Po, and the Five gasp]
 * Po: Pandas?!
 * Oogway: [narrating] Yes, pandas. Pandas who used the power of chi to heal me. They taught me how to give chi. But Kai wanted the power all to himself. He saw that what could be given could also be taken. I had to stop him. Our battle shook the Earth. Until, finally, I banished Kai to the Spirit Realm. Should he ever return to the mortal realm, he can only be stopped...
 * Shifu: "…by a true master of chi."


 * [Outside an abandoned ship, after Masters Bear and Croc have run in to confront Kai]
 * Mantis: You gotta get in there.
 * Crane: But Master Shifu said-
 * Mantis: You're seriously afraid? Even Master Chicken is going in there, and he's a chicken!
 * [Master Chicken clucks, pulls out his wing blades and runs inside the abandoned ship]


 * [At the Jade Palace, an arrow with a scroll flies towards the courtyard, but is caught in midair by Monkey; a number of other arrows surround Shifu as he reads another scroll]
 * Monkey: It's from the Eastern Province! [hands Shifu the arrow]
 * Shifu: Master Lizard, Master Ox, Master Eagle...all of them. [snaps the arrow in half] In every village from the sea to here, every Master in China has vanished.
 * Monkey: Maybe they are all at a party?
 * Viper: Monkey!
 * Monkey: I didn't get invited either.
 * Shifu: Kai has taken their chi. We are all that stand between him and the knowledge Oogway left in our care. [to Tigress] The villagers, evacuated?
 * Tigress: Done, Master.
 * Shifu: Crane, Mantis?
 * Tigress: Still nothing.
 * Viper: [gasps] Wait, it's them!
 * [Crane and Mantis fly in, but on closer look, they're both turned into jade zombies]
 * Shifu: [horrified] No! [the jade Crane and Mantis land in front of Shifu and the others - as Kai emerges in the mist, whirling his blades; fiercely] Kai!
 * Kai: [looks at the giant statue of Master Oogway] Nice. Very tacky.
 * Shifu: How dare you set foot on these grounds?!
 * Kai: [sneering] Look at you pathetic fools, groveling at the feet of Oogway the Magnificent.
 * Tigress: [fiercely] You are not fit to speak his name!
 * Kai: I am not fit, little kitten? [Tigress growls enviously for being called that] I fought by his side. I loved him like a brother...and he betrayed me. [calmly] Well, now I will destroy... [shouting] EVERYTHING HE HAS CREATED!
 * Shifu: Go!
 * Tigress: How's that for a little kitten?


 * Monkey: [grabbing jade Mantis] Mantis! It is me, your bestie!


 * [As Kai destroys statues outside the Jade Palace]
 * Shifu: I will not let you destroy Oogway's memory!
 * Kai: Why not? He destroyed mine.


 * [Tigress shows up at the Panda Village]
 * Mei Mei: Who's she?
 * Lei Lei: [gasps and runs to Tigress and hugs her] Big stripy baby!
 * Po: What are you doing here?
 * Tigress: Kai attacked the Valley. He's taken every master in China, including Shifu and the others. It's all gone, Po. Everything. Everyone.
 * Po: Everyone?
 * Tigress: Everyone.
 * Mr. Ping: [concerned] How's my restaurant? [some pandas look at him, confused] We'll talk later.
 * Tigress: And now he's on his way here. [to Po] He's after you, Po. He's after all pandas.
 * [All the pandas gasp in horror, fearing that Kai is coming to their village]


 * [When Po is warned by Tigress that Kai is coming to the Panda Village, he walks up to his father]
 * Po: You need to teach me the secret chi technique now!
 * Li: No, no. I'm afraid you need more time. [to the pandas] Everyone, go get your things!
 * Po: I don't have more time! I need to learn it now!
 * Li: Sorry, you're not ready. [to the pandas] Pack everything!
 * Po: I am ready!
 * Li: Not quite.
 * Po: [follows him on the bridge] What are you talking about? I've done everything you've asked. I've mastered napping, sleeping in, hammocks, hot tubs. I am totally at one with my panda parts! Now why won't you show me?!
 * Li: Because I don't know it!!!
 * Po: [shocked] You...what?
 * Li: I don't know it, okay? No one does! Maybe we used to, but...but not anymore.
 * Po: You lied?
 * Li: No, I...Yes.
 * Po: Why?
 * Li: To save your life! I find out some blade-swinging maniac is coming for you. What am I supposed to do? Just-Just let that happen?!
 * Po: Yes! I'm the Dragon Warrior, facing maniacs! That's my job, but because of you, I left the valley unprotected. I left my friends unprotected, and now they're all...they're all...
 * Li: And you would have been, too! I lost you once, I am not going to lose you again. I can't. [tries to take Po to his hut]
 * Po: [pulls his hand away from him] You just did. [storms off]


 * Tigress: This isn't going to work.
 * Po: It has to.
 * Tigress: You're not thinking straight.
 * Po: I am!
 * Tigress: [kicks his feet] You're not.
 * Po: I am.
 * Tigress: No.
 * Po: Yes, I am.
 * Tigress: No, I've seen Kai. I see what he can do.
 * Po: But he hasn't seen what I can do. [does the Wuxi Finger Hold again, just like in the first film]
 * Tigress: [confused] The Wuxi Finger Hold?
 * Po: It's my best move. I just have to get to Kai, grab his finger, and then, skadoosh, back to the spirit realm.
 * Tigress: [squeezes his hand] He has an army of jade warriors. Everything they see, he sees. So, there's no sneaking up on him. [pushes him down] You'll never get close enough.
 * Po: It's gonna work. [gets up]
 * Tigress: [puts him down again and puts her feet on him] He can only be stopped by a master of chi.
 * Po: [gets up again] Oh, you sound just like Shifu with the, "Chi, chi, chi." "Chi this. Chi that." "Chi-chi-chi-chi-chi-chi!" I'm not a master of chi, okay? I don't know if I'm the Dragon Warrior. I don't even know if I'm a panda! I don't know who I am! You're right. There's no way I can stop him and his army.
 * Li Shan: Unless you had an army of your own.
 * Po: You?
 * Li Shan: Not just me.
 * Mr. Ping: [appearing behind him] Us.
 * Li Shan: All of us. [All the other pandas appear] I finally found my son, after all these years. It's going to take a lot more than the end of the world to keep us apart.
 * Po: But you don't even know kung fu.
 * Li Shan: Then you will teach us.
 * Po: What? I can't teach you kung fu. I couldn't even teach Tigress. And she already knows kung fu!
 * Li Shan: Po, I know I'm the last guy you wanna trust right now. But you gotta believe me. We can do this. We can learn kung fu. We can be just like you!


 * [Po unrolls the jade scroll and looks at the drawing of Oogway and Kai's battle, then sees Li Shan looking at the drawing of the ancient panda masters using their chi to heal a wounded Oogway]
 * Li Shan: I wish I could have taught you this, son.
 * Po: It's okay, Dad. I'm…
 * [They, Tigress, Mr. Ping, and all the other panda villagers suddenly hear the sound of Kai's blades]
 * Tigress: He's here.
 * [Kai launches himself to the top of the ice wall with his blades]
 * Po: [amazed] That's what I call a dramatic entrance!
 * Kai: You must be the Dragon Warrior.
 * Po: And you must be Kai - Beast of Vengeance, Maker of Widows.
 * Kai: Yes! Finally! Thank you! Almost makes me want to spare your life.
 * Po: Oh, you want to spare me? How about you spare me the chit-chat, alright? Let's do this.
 * Kai: I'm going to take your chi, then the chi of every panda in the-
 * Po: Augh! Chit-chat.
 * Kai: In the-
 * Po: Chitty-chitty-chat-chat, chat-chat-chat!
 * Kai: In the-
 * Po: Chit-chat!


 * Mei Mei: Get ready to dance…with danger! [takes out a pack of nunchucks and fights the Jade zombie Master Badger Twins]

<hr width=60%>
 * [Po prepares to use the Wuxi Finger Hold to send Kai back to the Spirit Realm]
 * Po: Sorry, buddy. Gotta send you back to the Spirit Realm. Skadoosh! [flexes his pinkie, nothing happens] Okay...That didn't work, let me try one more time. Skadoosh! Skadoosh, skadoosh...! What the...?
 * Kai: Hold on, wait! It is working! No! No, no! No! No! Oh, no! No, no, no, no, no, no! No! [retches, then laughs] No, it's not. Did Oogway teach you that little trick? Too bad. It only works on mortals, and I...am a spirit warrior.

<hr width=60%>
 * Kai: So, Oogway, this was the one destined to stop me? I will have his chi. And then all of theirs! [cuts of the panda villagers' escape with his blade; to Po] And you... You really thought you can send me back to the Spirit Realm? You are just a stupid mortal.
 * Po: It only works on mortals. You're right. I can't send you there. But I can take you there. What's that? [points out in the air, distracting Kai and everyone else; then jumps on Kai and headlocks him with his arms]
 * Tigress: Po!
 * Li Shan: Son!
 * Po: Skadoosh! [lowers his pinky, releasing a yellow shockwave]
 * Li Shan & Mr. Ping: SON!
 * Kai: NO!
 * [A yin-yang symbol made of flower petals appear where Po last stood after the shockwave]
 * Li Shan: What happened? Where's Po?
 * Tigress: He took Kai away. He saved us.
 * Li Shan: No.
 * Mr. Ping: He saved us. But who's saving him?

<hr width=60%>
 * [Li Shan, Mr. Ping, Tigress, and all the other panda villagers gather around to use their chi to help Po before Kai tries taking away his while in the Spirit Realm]
 * Li Shan: Po… You taught us who we were meant to be. A father.
 * Tigress: A friend.
 * Panda Cub: A dumpling kicker.
 * Panda Grandmother: A lethal fighting machine.
 * Big Fun: A hugger.
 * Mei Mei: A nunchuck chick.
 * Lei Lei: Stripy baby.
 * Mr. Ping: A family.

<hr width=60%>
 * Kai: Who are you?
 * Po: I've been asking the same question. [performs multiple stances by using his chi] Am I the son of a panda? The son of a goose? A student? A teacher? Turns out... I'm all of them. [forms a chi dragon avatar around him] I am the Dragon Warrior. Get it? See the giant dragon? [laughs] Get ready to feel the thunder! Whoa! This is awesome!

<hr width=60%>
 * [Final confrontation in the Spirit Realm]
 * Kai: It took me five hundred years to take Oogway's chi. I will have yours if it takes me five hundred more!
 * Po: [makes "chit-chat" gestures; his dragon avatar mimics the movement] Chitty-chitty-chat-chat! Chit-chat! [furious, Kai charges at Po, who begins to charge his chi energy] You want my chi so bad? Then take it! [channels his chi into Kai's body]
 * Kai: [last words before his death] Yes! The power...is mine! [the jade pendants, the chi he has collected from the Masters, begin to break away from him] Wait! No! It's too much! IT'S TOO MUCH!! NO! [begins to glow, overloaded with power, as the pendant of Oogway floats away from him] NO!!!
 * [In a flash of light, Kai is destroyed. Back in the panda village, the jade pendant of Master Bear emerges from the spirit realm and shatters, releasing him]
 * Master Bear: [in combat stance] Who, huh, where'd he go?
 * [Masters Chicken and Croc are returned as well, followed by Shifu, Crane, Monkey, Mantis, and Viper]
 * Viper: We're back!
 * Monkey: Besties!
 * Mantis: I'm still green, it didn't work! Oh, wait, that's my normal green.
 * Lei Lei [grabs Mantis, makes him do "kissy face" with Po's Tigress action figure] Greenie baby!
 * Mantis: No! Not a baby! Antenna of Fear! Antenna of Fear!
 * Li Shan: What about Po?
 * Tigress: Have you seen Po?
 * Viper: No...he's not here.
 * Mr. Ping: [worried] Po, Po? Why isn't he back?
 * [In the Spirit Realm, after destroying Kai, Po floats away; the jade pendant containing Oogway's chi shatters, restoring him]
 * Oogway: Dragon Warrior.
 * Po: Oogway? Whoa! [floats right into the water, and then back up] I can't believe it! [Oogway laughs] Whoa...you are extra shiny.
 * Oogway: As are you.
 * Po: I know, right? It's like the best cape ever. When I run with it, then it looks really cool.
 * Oogway: It suits you. You've grown.
 * Po: Yeah, gotta lay off the Panda Buffet.
 * Oogway: Grown up. [chuckles] As I hoped you would when I sent the message to your real father.
 * Po: You sent the universe mail? Whoa!
 * Oogway: Yes. Because the universe needed you.
 * Po: Me? W-Why me?
 * Oogway: You finally became the panda you were always meant to be.
 * Po: But...how'd you know I could?
 * Oogway: On the first day we met. I saw the future of kung fu... [flashback to the first movie, Oogway choosing him as the Dragon Warrior] ...And the past. [flashback to Oogway learning chi from the ancient pandas] I saw the panda who could unite them both. That is why I chose you, Po. Both sides of the yin and yang...and my true successor.

<hr width=60%>
 * [Po returns to the mortal world]
 * Po: Dad. Dad. Dads!
 * Li and Mr. Ping: Son! [both run to Po and hug him]
 * Mr. Ping: Don't you go disappearing in petals ever again.
 * Li Shan: We thought we lost you.
 * Po: No, you saved me. you all did. [looks at everybody and Big Fun laughs] Now, come on over here!
 * [Everyone runs to Po]
 * Big Fun: Hugs!
 * [Tigress, Monkey, Crane, Viper, Mantis and the pandas hugs Po]
 * Po: Master Shifu!
 * Shifu: The student has truly become the tea… [notices the Staff of Wisdom in Po's hand] Wait. Where did you get that?
 * Po: Oh, this. Oogway gave it to me in the Spirit Realm.
 * Shifu: [sighs] Of course he did.
 * Po: I think I've mastered chi.
 * Shifu: [sighs again, facepalms] Of course you did. [looks at him hopefully] Can you teach me?
