Daniel and his wife Amanda (Courtney Henggeler) manage a car dealership together, and the two of them have a daughter named Sam or Samantha (Mary Mouser). Since his loss to Daniel, Johnny's life has been in a steady downward spiral.
But things start to get better for Johnny after he meets Miguel Diaz (Xolo Mariduena), a bookish teenager he rescues from bullying. Miguel joins him as his first student at the titular dojo, which he brings back.
