Shawn wanted to help clean up Chow's gym when it flooded last year, but was told that she probably shouldn't. At the time she was training for the Olympics and was only a few weeks away. Nobody wanted to see her get hurt. While it was tough for her to just stand by and watch others clean up, it was for the best. If she got hurt, it would have been a tragedy.
