Lured to a farm, Po, Shifu, Monkey and Mantis get attacked by the crocodile bandits, while Tigress stays in the Palace as the child's protector. There, they are attacked by Lidong and Fung, who manages to capture Zan, but Tigress eventually defeats them, kicking Lidong off the Palace, and then obtains a motherly role to the child.
