* [[Meaningful Background Event]]: In the first movie after Daniel leaves Cobra Kai Dojo and talks to his mother at work in a nearby restaurant. While they are talking they are sitting by a window with Cobra Kai Dojo in view. One of Johnny's friends is seen walking out and across the street, he stops in his tracks upon spotting Daniel through the window. He runs back and gathers the rest of his friends, Johnny included to show them where he is. Not too long after this part was when the gang run Daniel off the escarpment.
* [[Motive Decay]]: Terry in ''Part III'' does what he does out of friendship and loyalty to his friend, John. The opening scenes of the movie really do a good job of driving this home. And yet, he's the one who comes up with the idea of completely destroying Danny and Miyagi, and his motivation ends up devolving completely into this.
