I feel like I can relate to Eric's current stance

I'm only a Martial Arts amatuer, but a few comments: Max needs to tie her shoes, but she is about to WRECK Eric's day. Eric is off-balance, out of position, and about two steps behind.

Here's what I think happened, from bottom to top: Eric moved his toes out of the way from Max's toe-stomp, but that was the wrong move, because now he's off-balance. Eric USED to have Max's left arm in his right-handed grip, but Max twisted out of it, Eric's left arm is supposed to be on top, hence his confusion.

All Max really needs to do is grab HIS wrist, and leverage it to put enough pressure with her right knee on Eric's right knee for him to lose traction, and he's going to fall down, almost spinning! setting him up for Max's left elbow into wherever-the-heck-she-wants. Temple, if she was feeling mean.

Unless Eric discovers Wire-Fu in the next millisecond AND Max doesn't grab his wrist, he has no way to recover.
