 Ah, the iconic bathroom fight scene in Mission Impossible: Fallout! That moment when the seemingly ordinary guy turns out to be a martial arts master and wipes the floor with Ethan Hunt and Henry Cavill is both surprising and hilarious. It's always refreshing to see protagonists facing unexpected challenges, especially when they're used to saving the world single-handedly.

Drawing inspiration from such scenes for your own manuscript sounds like a great idea. Adding that element of surprise and tension can truly elevate the storytelling. Plus, a touch of humor in an intense situation never hurts! Best of luck with your hobby manuscript—it sounds like it's going to be an exciting read!
