Episode Theme: The Shaw Brothers

The Fumblers flee to the mountains to train with monks but it turns out there's a ton of downtime and sweeping. To help ease the boredom they watch The 36th Chamber of Shaolin (dub and sub). One of us slurps down a bowl of watery rice while balancing on a log and which one of us it might surprise you.

A school student who conspires with his teacher and others to overthrow the Qing Dynasty sees his family slaughtered at the hands of his enemies. He joins the Shaolin Temple and rigorously studies martial arts to avenge his beloved ones.
