8. Mulan Is As Inept With A Sword As With A Tea Kettle
Mulan is hopeless. She can’t serve a pot of tea, and she also can’t wield a sword. She fails at one task after another while she is training, even with the help of Mushu, and is the laughingstock of the recruits that she is training with.
Finally, Shang Li has had enough and sends her packing. He hands her horse’s bridle and tells her to go back home. She will never succeed in anything. But Mulan is determined to not only save her life but to prove her own self.
