Don't move.
I'm in position, move in.
Where is Juntao?
Juntao? He is everywhere.
You want a piece of me?
Don't move!
Shoot me!
Sang got away.
Forgive me, Consul Han.
I believe we can ill afford to lose men of your high character.
And speaking as a friend who's fought side by side with you
for 15 years...
I will miss the unshakable support you've given the Royal Hong Kong Police.
On behalf of all Brits
who have ever carried the shield in Hong Kong
we shall miss you.
And we wish you happiness
as you take up your new post in the United States.
Ladies and gentlemen, Consul Han.
Thank you, Thomas.
Now, you know,
Thomas is not going to make this evening easy.
Excuse me.
Commander Griffin
I am pleased to leave you and Hong Kong with a special gift tonight.
Earlier, Detective Inspector Lee and his special task force
have once and for all crushed the Juntao criminal organization
and reclaimed artifacts from 5000 years of China's heritage
This is the kind of legacy I dreamt about.
Hong Kong forever
To Hong Kong, forever
Soo Yung.
Why didn't you tell me you weren't going with us?
I was trying to find the right time.
When? After I left?
Soo Yung, I'll miss you very much.
You're my best student!
Your mother would've been proud.
Will you practice your kicks and eye gouges?
I don't like America.
I won't have any friend in America.
Everything will be O.K. I promise.
This is for you.
Thank you.
Don't worry.
America is a very friendly place.
Stupid fool, get out of my way!
Man, are you crazy?
Shoot!
You moron!
Clive, what's up, man?
You're late.
I'm late? Yeah, you're late.
I've been waiting inside for an hour.
I was in the diner.
I told you, "the back of the diner."
You thought I'd do this up front?
Are you crazy? I'll get busted.
I was in the diner, you weren't.
I said... It don't even matter.
I'm late, you late, it don't matter. Let's do this.
What's that? Put that gun away.
How many people you killed this year?
Stop it. Come on, let's do it.
Don't be late again.
I ain't going to be late. Come on.
That's tight. That's beautiful. That's nice.
What's that? That's C-4.
That's C-4? That's C-4.
Oh, shit!
What's the problem?
Ain't no problem. I been looking everywhere for this shit.
How the hell you find some C-4?
You don't know how you're making me feel.
The Iraqis can't even get this shit
Who'd you get this from?
That's a hot ticket.
You don't know how happy you made me.
You got what I want. I'll get what you want. Let me get that money.
Step away from the car.
Officers. Hands above your heads.
What's wrong, officers?
Just do it. No problem here. Why mess with us?
Take it easy, buddy! You don't want to do that.
Yes, I do!
No, he don't. He's just playing!
No, I ain't playing!
Yes, he is, officer!
Drop the gun!
He's my cousin. We're talking.
Get back in the car and leave.
We can't do that, buddy!
I'm going to blow his head all over the parking lot!
Get in the car and buy some doughnuts.
See what you did? You made him mad. Let me talk to him.
Don't move!
Everything cool now. He down, the gun down.
Now get back in the car and leave.
Put your hands on your head!
Officer, everything cool, officer.
Do it now!
Didn't I tell you to get in the car?
Stop it! I got C-4 in the trunk!
Clive... guess what, man?
I forgot to tell you. I'm LAPD.
You under arrest.
Soo Yung, come on. We're going to be late.
Let's go.
Excuse me.
Telephone. China.
Soo Yung.
I love you. Have a nice day.
Will you be home after school?
No. I am going to pick you up myself.
Good-bye.
Hello, this is Han. Hello?
When you walk by every night
talking sweet and looking fine.
I get kind of hectic inside.
Baby, I'm so into you
Darling, if you only knew
all the things that flow through my mind
Is there a problem officer?
No problem. Just rush hour.
Security's in place?
You're sure the exhibits will be ready this weekend?
Yes, sir. Your opening remarks are scheduled for 7:30.
Excuse me, Consul Han...
I'm Warren Russ with the Federal Bureau of Investigation
This is Agent Whitney. We need to speak with you in private, sir.
Excuse me.
I know this is a difficult time for you, consul...
but I want you to know, we'll get your daughter back.
Will you get her back alive?
We have the best agents in the world in this house and on those streets.
I would like one of my people to help.
Let me assure you, Consul,
the FBI considers this a top priority.
We have plenty of people on the case.
Mr. Russ, I am not an American.
My daughter, she is not an American.
I understand that, sir, but...
He's already on a plane.
I trust you will treat him with the same courtesy as you have shown me.
Yes, sir.
Ten people jumped out.
I started slapping and throwing them everywhere.
Then two stupid cops came and messed everything up.
I had to save their life. It might be in the paper...
I saved their life and then
I start running and trying to get the bomb...
I can't believe you went without me.
I'll talk to y'all later.
I'll tell you the best part after work.
This is why nobody will work with you.
Why you're the only cop in the department without a partner
Johnson, look, first of all:
If you want to go on a date, you'll have to wait on the list
like every other woman.
And second of all: I work alone.
I don't want no partner. Don't need no partner.
And I'll never have a partner.
Did Kojak have a partner?
The fat guy.
He wasn't never with him. Did Columbo have a partner?
Captain Diel ordered me to go with you
because you needed bomb squad backup.
But once again, you screwed me and you screwed yourself.
Look, Johnson, it's dangerous out there.
It's safer for you to be here behind the desk.
We were supposed to be on the same team.
Team? Johnson, this is the LAPD.
We the most hated cops in the free world.
My own mama ashamed of me. She tell everybody I'm a drug dealer.
Ain't no team. It's a pit stop for me, baby.
I'm on the verge of leaving all y'all suckers behind.
Actually, you're on the verge of being suspended.
Have a nice day.
Somebody said I was getting suspended?
Quit playing, girl.
I know you playing.
Johnson, somebody told you I was getting suspended?
This is a problem.
All I need is a foreign national getting his head blown off...
and turning this into an international incident.
What can we do? He's on his way.
Call the field office. Have them send over a rookie.
We'll have him escort this guy around town for a couple of days
pretend to follow leads, show him some sights,
keep him out of our way.
Warren, you sure you want to do that to one of our own men?
What do you suggest?
As long as we're going to humiliate someone...
might as well be LAPD.
Even if I had an extra man,
who would want such a bullshit assignment?
Well, it's a disgrace to me.
It's a disgrace to my department. It's a disgrace to...
Dan, I'm sending someone right over.
Cap... I know you read the paper.
They lying. You know I wouldn't do nothing like that.
They over-exaggerate. You know how the paper is.
They just want a story.
Two officers were shot.
One man lost a pinkie.
But didn't nobody die.
You destroyed half a city block.
That block was already messed up.
And you lost a lot of evidence.
Still got a little bit left.
What you did was dangerous and completely against policy.
And not only that.
You did a good job.
What?
Everyone around here is image-conscious.
Everybody's afraid of their own shadow.
It's nice to meet an L.A. Detective who's willing to lay it on the line
Captain, that's the way I feel.
That's what I've been trying to tell everybody.
Every so often we have to let the public know
we can still blow shit up.
You goddamn right! That's the only way I work, Cap.
So I ain't getting suspended?
Suspended? Are you kidding?
I don't even know why I said that.
I just got a call from the FBI.
A 10-year-old daughter of a Chinese diplomat was kidnapped.
And they want you on the case.
FBI wnat me?
That's right.
Stop lying. I don't lie.
Tell the truth. I'm telling the truth.
Thank you, Captain.
Congratulations, Carter.
Appreciate it! You are going to the show.
I'm going to look out for you when I go to the top.
I'll make you mayor.
I'd rather you didn't.
Listen up! If anybody need me...
I'm going to be working a big, big case for the FBI!
Take care of that for me.
I need one of those earpieces immediately, all right?
How you doing?
Cross check the personned records with the new list from Interpol.
See if you can make any matches or connections.
Okay, boys, what do we got?
Have we checked the Consul personal records?
I want to know who's he been talking with,
who's he been dealing with.
Okay, give me the story. Any demands?
Any fingerprints? Have we interviewed his staff?
Whitney, who is this?
Give me a copy of that.
James Carter, FBI.
Warren, he's here for the special assignment.
I'm Agent-in Charge Warren Russ.
It's good to have you on board.
I been waiting for this.
You guys take a while to process an application.
Well, Carter...
your particular assignment is considered G-14 classified.
Why don't you and I take a walk and I'll fill you in.
Okay, Warren.
G-14 classified.
That's good.
You don't understand, this is my dream.
I'm excited about working with the FBI.
I'm glad. Listen.
His name is Lee, and the director considers this a top priority.
No disrespect, sir, but he'll get in my way.
I'm not used to having a partner.
If I'm going to handle the situation for you, I must work alone.
Cartel... he is the situation.
Must be a misunderstanding.
I'm here for the kidnapping. The liggle girl?
Forget the firl. Your assignment is Lee.
Who is Lee and what kind of assignment is that?
Lee is a foreign detective. A friend of the consul's.
You're to keep him out of sight and away from danger. Understand?
I understand. You want me to babysit, but I don't do that.
I came for the big assignment.
Truth is, this is an FBI operation...
and I don't need help from the LAPD or some Chung King cop.
You got it?
Why didn't you put one of your men on this top-priority case?
What I supposed to do with him?
I don't give a damn.
I don't want to see him or you until this is resolved.
His plane arrives in an hour.
We want to make a good impression, Carter.
It's his first trip to America.
This is bullshit!
Tell me you speak English.
I'm Detective Carter. Do you speak any English?
Do you understand the words that are coming out of my mouth?
I cannot believe this shit.
First I get a bullshit assignment.
Now. Mr. Rice-A-Roni...
...don't even speak American.
Come on, man. My ride over here.
Put yoru bag in the back.
Put your bag in the back!
No...
You put your own shit in the back! I'm not a skycap.
I'm FBI. You understand?
What the hell you think this is?
Captain, I don't think this is funny.
Captain. You need to call the FBI and tell them you made a mistake.
I can't do that, Carter.
I'm sure that you and Mr. Lee will have a nice time together.
I'm warning you. Call the FBI
or I'll drop his ass off at Panda Express.
Drop this case, Carter,
you're suspended for two months without pay.
All right, you can forget about being mayor, then.
Congratulations, Carter,
it looks like you finally got yourself a partner.
One little pinkie get blowed off, man, everybody tripping.
"Chinese Consul"?
That's one place you can't go.
I ain't getting fired for nobody. You going to pay my bills?
Soo Yung.
That's the little girl?
Say something.
They all think it's real funny.
Give Carter the big G-14 classified case.
I'll show the FBI they don't know who they playing with.
I'll solve this case myself.
That's right.
I want to show you something first. Look familiar?
Just like home, ain't it? Look. Just like home.
I ain't never been to China, but I bet it probably look like this.
Star maps!
Look, look. John Wayne.
John Wayne? You know John Wayne?
John Wayne.
Yeah, hang out with the Duke.
I'll be back. You may see one of your cousins around here.
Find them and stalk them! Star maps!
Right here! Star maps, people!
You got the address to Michael Jackson house?
Never-Neverland?
You can't come around my job! That's harassment.
Checking on you.
I'm legit, selling star maps. It's all I sell.
Legit, my ass.
What you and your Asian gang friends talk about? Kidnapping?
I don't know nothing.
Give me a star map...
for $45. Do you understand?
I don't know about a kidnapping.
But some dude's buying guns, explosives
and people like he's starting a war.
What's his name? I don't know.
You don't know his name?
For $45, I don't know.
For $45, you tell me something.
I don't know nothing for $45.
I didn't tell you nothing!
Lee!
Didn't I tell you to wait for me?
What the hell you doing on this bus?
You think I'm playing with you?
Think I'm playing? I ain't playing with you. Sit down.
It's okay. It's all right. FBI.
Take a picture. Wait a minute.
All right.
Out of my way! Watch out!
FBI. Stop this bus.
Stop!
FBI. I need this motorcycle. Get off!
Get out of the car. Get out of the car now!
Where are you going? Didn't I tell you to stay by the Duke?
What are you doing?
Mind your own business, stay in the car.
I just wanted to find out where you was going.
I don't want to shoot you. I wanted to go with you.
What's happening here?
Put the gun down. Put the gun down! I ain't playing with you!
Think I'm playing?
Don't move!
Drop your guns.
Hey, man... look. FBI.
I'm policeman.
I'm just showing him how to take a gun from a suspect.
All of a sudden you speaking English.
A little. "A little," my ass. You lied to me.
I didn't say I didn't. You assumed I didn't.
"Assume" I kick your Beijing ass. I ain't scared of you.
I know you know that tricky shit.
I'm not responsible for your assumption.
You full of shit. You understand? You full of shit.
Not being able to speak is not the same as not speaking.
You seem as if you like to talk.
I let people talk who like to talk.
It makes it easier to find out how full of shit they are.
What the hell did you just say?
I like people to talk because it's easy...
So I'm the one full of shit?
We both full of shit.
You full of shit.
I'm going to kick your ass.
Don't nobody do that but me.
You want me to kick your ass, don't you?
You must take me to see Consul Han right away.
Just sit there and shut up. This ain't no democracy.
Yes, it is.
No, it ain't. This is the United States of James Carter now.
I'm the president. I'm the emperor. I'm the king.
I'm Michael Jackson, you Tito.
Your ass belong to me.
Why would they not want my help?
They don't give a damn about you.
They don't like you. I don't like you.
I don't care. I'm here for the girl.
She don't like you.
Nobody likes you.
You came all the way here for nothing.
You ain't going to be...
Beach Boys.
Hell, no. You didn't just touch my radio?
They are great American music.
The Beach Boys will get you an ass-whupping.
Don't ever touch a black man's radio, boy.
You can do that in China, but you'll get your ass killed here
I'm going to show you real music.
That's music. You hear that?
Can you do that to The Beach Boys? Can you do that to The Beach Boys?
Hell, no.
I must get to the consulate. What are we doing here?
It's called a shakedown. Serious police work.
Whatch me handle my business and control the space.
I want to help with the investigation. This is my case.
Your case?
You can back me up.
When we get in here, you follow my lead and do what I do. Okay?
What's up, my nigger? What's up?
Is this weed?
Got a prescription?
Where's it at? Where's it at?
I should take you to jail.
For what?
That's a cigarette.
This ciga-weed!
Look like a cigarette.
You better have glaucoma.
I do.
What's up, my nigger?
Check that, baby.
What's happening, Carter?
Put the guns down. Put the guns down.
MC Hammer Daddy, put the goddamn gun down.
I got questions and I need answers.
Put them down.
Where the girl? What little girl?
The little girl. What little girl?
The Chinese girl.
I don't know about no girl!
You know what I'm talking about!
I'll take you in if I don't get answers.
Carter, put the gun down.
Don't act like you know me. You don't.
I see what's going on. Y'all trying to play me like a fool
Lee, go outside. It'll get dangerous in here.
I may have questions.
Wait by the bar. Remember what I told you?
Back me up. I'm going to take care of everything.
You sure? I'm sure. Now go on. Go on.
Think I'm playing.
Hurry up!
Come here.
Don't come in my business scaring me. Goddamn.
I was just playing. Give me a hug.
I'm showing that rookie the ropes.
Why didn't you come to church Sunday?
I had some things to take care of. But I made the night service.
Come here. I want to holler at you.
What's up?
Who's running around town buying explosives and weapons?
I don't know nothing about that.
Luke, I know what you do.
The only reason I ain't busted you because you my cousin...
and it'd kill Aunt Bootsie.
Why put Aunt Bootsie in this?
I ain't playing.
She got a bad heart, but if I have to, I'll bust your ass.
Tell me something.
The word in Chinatown is there's a new dude in town
bad-ass dude out of Hong Kong, buying up every goddamn thing.
What's his name?
I don't know. He ain't buying from me.
You don't know his name?
Nobody know his name.
What's up, my nigger?
What did you just say?
What's up, my nigger?
Come here.
What you say, boy?
I don't want trouble.
Please... I said I don't want trouble.
That's bad for you.
Where the little girl at? What little girl?
You know what firl I'm talking about!
You better take your hands off my suit.
Your mama bought me this suit. It's my favorite suit.
Now let me go.
I'll see you Thanksgiving. Appreciate it.
Get your big Happy Meal ass over in the corner.
I'm still the law here!
Next time I come in, y'all better clean this shit up!
And brush your teeth! Let's go.
What are we doing here?
I'm getting something to eat.
You want anything? A Cup of Noodles or something?
Carter, stop wasting my time. I made a promise to Soo Yung.
You right. I have been wasting your time. I'm sorry.
Let me get something to eat. Then I'll take you where you want.
Okay?
Okay.
Shake?
What are you doing?
YOu not the only one with quick hands.
I'll be right back.
Shit.
I got you a beef and bean burrito.
We have a taxicab approaching. The man stepping out. Asian.
About 5-10.
Someone's approaching the gate, dropped off by a cab.
Tell them to intercept.
Intercept.
We will intercept.
Can I help you?
I must see the Consul.
About what?
Please, it's very important.
Tell us why you need to see the Consul.
We'll tell you whether it's important.
Do you have identification?
It's about his daughter.
Hands above your head!
He asked about the Consul's daughter.
He asked about the daughter.
You don't understand. I was invited.
Don't move! Throw your gun away.
He's going to kill them.
Is everything all right?
You'll be safer on the second floor.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry about this.
He went over!
He's on the grounds. Come on.
Stay away from the window, please.
Get down, now!
Don't move!
Sorry I'm late.
Wait here.
Mr. Russ, I think there has been a misunderstanding.
It's all right. It's okay.
It's him... the guy from China.
What?
Come in, please.
Mr. Russ, I would like you to meet Detective Inspector Lee.
Excuse me very much.
Oh, yes...
your gun.
Where the hell is Carter?
I got to put up with this. Look at this.
You seen a little Asian dude about this height with a steering wheel on his arm?
Go screw yourself.
What did you say?
Go screw yourself.
Take your sensitive ass up there and let me in. Out of the way!
Don't make me get out of this truck.
When I get in here, I'm slapping somebody. I don't play that.
What happened? Your job was to keep...
It ain't my job to jump on buses.
I do not do that! I am not Carl Lewis!
Who is this man?
Sir, I can explain.
Agent Carter has been helping with my investigation.
He's upset that we have not done our job.
Me and Lee are handling the situation.
Everything's under control.
We're on top of it. We'll get her back.
He is passionate about finding your daughter.
Thank you.
We wanted Detective Lee to have one of our best men by his side.
Agent Russ, this is a good time to tell the Consul the details of my assignment.
Yes.
Carter, can I speak to you for amoment?
You want to speak to me? In private?
I see. This must be G-14 classified.
FBl-type stuff.
Let me call my captain, tell him what's going on.
We'll talk in a second.
G-14. I love when the G-14 be coming around.
Who is this? Hello?
Am I speaking with FBI?
The FBI? Yeah, this the FBI.
You are FBI?
Yeah, this is the FBI.
If you want the girl back alive, listen and do not talk.
I'm listening. Let me get a pen.
All right, cool.
The drop will be made tonight, 11 p.m.
The amount will be 50 million dollar.
Fifty million dollars?
Who you think you kidnapped? Chelsea Clinton?
Keep him talking.
In used currency. Nothing bigger than a 50.
All right. Fifty million dollars, no problem.
I want 20 million in 50.
Twenty million in 50s.
Twenty million in 20s.
Ten million in 10.
And Ten million in 10s. You want any fives with that?
What is your name?
What's yours? You called us. Why you want my name?
I want to tell the Consul
who caused his daughter death because he talk too much.
All right, calm down.
I'm trying to hook you up. I'm on yorr side.
You'll receive instruction for the drop half an hour before it is to be made.
If it is successful, the firl will live.
I'll make sure you get the money. We can spend it together...
because I don't even work for them.
We got it. 620 South Broadway. Downtown.
Tactical Team One, proceed down Sixth to Sixth and Broadway.
Team Two, I want you around the back at Fourth and Main.
Set up a perimeter.
Take your team and cover the building floor by floor to the top. Move.
They must not go into the building.
Yeah, you right. Let's go tell them. Come on.
Mr. Russ, you must pull your men back.
What the hell are you doing here? Where is Carter?
Please listen to me!
Mr. Lee, you may be very competent...
but the fact that you know this girl compromises your judgement.
Sir, if you were asking for $50 million,
would you be in a place like that?
Get this clown away from me.
Take a hike.
Hey, man.
Why were you hiding?
What're you talking about?
You were hiding.
I bent down to tie my shoe and you was gone.
Sir, the area is secured. Room's empty.
Damn it!
Everybody, pull back!
Goddamn!
Get some paramedics here, now!
Evacuate the building. Get fire crews here.
We got an explosion at Sixth and Broadway.
That ain't far enough, man!
I ain't Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Push it down some more.
Don't come any... Stop.
Think I done broke my... Shit!
Who was that you was chasing?
His name is Sang, from Hong Kong. Because of you, he got away.
Why you didn't tell me about the bridge?
I did. No, you did not.
I said, "Stop!"
I don't understand what you be saying!
What?
You see what I'm saying?
What's this in your hand?
He dropped it.
Oh, shit. Come on.
Where we going?
I messed up my suit.
Fifteen seconds.
Make a decision.
Johnson!
Shit!
Did I come at a bad time?
I got bad news for you, Johnson. We're all dead.
I was distracted, sir.
Distractions occur in the field. That's why we call this practice.
If you can't handle the pressure, then quit.
Yes, sir.
Give her a break.
Don't worry about him. How you doing? What's going on?
Give me some love.
Why are you tormenting me?
Is that any way to treat a friend? I came to see how you're doing?
And I need some help.
Help?
I know you have feelings for me...
but we got to put that aside. There's a girl's life at stake.
Since when do you care about anybody but yourself?
Please, take a look at this.
We found this on the kidnapper. Tell me what it is.
Now you want me to work with you?
I don't have time for this. I got my own shit to deal with.
Who are you?
Sorry we got you in trouble.
He's sorry he got you in trouble. Tell me something about this.
It's a remote. Could be nitro cap, cross delay.
Not homemade. Definitely not American.
It could open a garage door or blow up some C-4.
C-4?
Yeah, C-4.
This means so much to me.
Go, go, go.
Sorry about spreading those rumors on Christmas about us sleeping together.
What?
He's just joking.
Bobby, what's up, man?
I need to see Clive Cobb.
No way, Carter. It's lights out. They locked down.
Want me to lose my job?
I got you this job. You better open the gate and let me in.
Can't do it.
Didn't I turn my back when you bought that weed?
I was splitting it with you!
Didn't I give you the bigger half? Bobby, do me this favor.
Shit. You got five minutes.
Hey, Cobb, your two brothers are here to see you!
Clive, how you doing, man?
You got balls coming here.
I was around. I figured you'd be bored.
I came to see how you was doing.
What do you want?
I came to bring you a gift.
You got time on your hands and I brought you a toy.
I don't want that. You don't?
I heard you like to play with stuff like this.
I don't play with stuff like that. I don't know what it is.
Never sold this to nobody?
How could I? I don't know what it is.
Maybe if you hold it. Want to hold it?
I don't want to touch it.
Why you don't want to touch it? 'Cause I don't want to touch it.
Scared of it? You think I'm stupid?
Stupid enough to get busted.
You want my fingerprints on it to frame me.
Why would I do that? You think I'll trick you again?
I don't have to. You'll do life when they find out you killed the girl.
I don't know anything.
Ain't what I heard. That's what I'll tell everybody.
I don't care what you heard.
I got a big mouth.
Let me tell you something.
I don't know anything about it, so kiss my fat ass.
It'd take me all day to kiss your fat ass.
What'll you do? Want some of this? I'll give you all you want.
Give me a name.
I ain't telling you shit.
She's only 11 years old.
I don't want her to die.
Look at the picture.
I don't care about him or you! I care about the girl!
Give me the name.
The guy's name is Juntao.
I never seen him.
Where can I find him?
Foo Chow Restaurant, Chinatown.
Do yourself a favor. Get rid of this guy. He'll get you killed.
I'll come and bring your fat ass some cookies. We appreciate this.
That's it.
What are we waiting for?
We scoping the place out.
We ain't going to run in. That's how you get shot.
I'm falling asleep.
What is it good for? Absolutely nothing.
Man, you don't know nothing about no "War".
Everybody knows "War."
What is it good for? Absolutely nothing.
Good God, you all.
It ain't "you all." It's "y'all".
You sound like a karate movie. Y'all.
Say it from here with some soul. Y'all.
Let me show your goofy ass how to do this.
Come on, come on.
Do that again. Do it again.
Like this?
One will be inserted in the suitcase. The other will be on you.
When you make the drop.
Do we have it?
Pick it up.
You have what the else about.
I do.
I hope now you realize how serious I am.
Take the money to the alley
behind the FOO CHOW Restaurant in Chinatown
You have twenty-nine minutes left.
Go alone.
"FOO CHOW Restaurant"
Damn, Chin, this some greasy shit.
Ain't you got no better food,
like chicken wings, ribs, fries or something?
Chinese food. No sould food here.
Ididn't say soul food. I said, "better food."
I don't want that greasy shit. How do you sell a box of grease?
Umchilia what?
Hey, come on.
I'm no punk bitch!
I ain't no punk bitch neither!
I'm no punk bitch.
I'll knock your hat off.
Man, what you got me eating?
That's eel.
Is it good?
Very good.
What you got?
Camel's hump.
What?
Camel's hump.
Kind of good!
Need a little hot sauce, but it's kind of good.
We're still waiting?
How do we get this guy, Juntao? How we know he exists?
Nobody ever seen him.
I know. He killed my partner.
I'm sorry about that, man.
That's why I don't have a partner. I learned that from my daddy.
Your daddy was apoliceman?
Fifteen years, LAPD.
My father was also a policeman.
He was a cop?
Not a cop. An officer, a legend all over Hong Kong.
My daddy a legend all over America.
My daddy once arrest 15 people in one night by himself.
My daddy arrest 25 by himself.
My daddy saved 5 crackheads from a burning building by himself.
My daddy once caught a bullet with his bare hands.
Ny daddy would kick you daddy's ass from here to China or Japan,
wherever you from and up that Great Wall.
Don't talk about my father.
Don't talk about my daddy.
That your boy?
Yes. Let's go.
I better go in first. Nobody going to recognize me.
I'll wait five minutes.
Hey, take my ID. If anything go wrong...
you bust in like you LAPD.
This won't work. I'm not 6'1".
Yes, it will. It's all about attitude, all right?
Flip it open. Flip it closed. Do it fast.
You'll get it. Look.
Take this.
Hey, man, act like you from out of town.
I am from out of town.
Don't act like a cop.
Act like a tourist or something. Don't be obvious.
Okay. No problem.
Welcome.
Hey, how you doing?
For one?
No, for two. I'm here to meet with Mr. Juntao.
I'm sorry, I don't know Mr. Juntao.
You don't understand. I'm his lawyer, legal advisor.
He got into some shit, said to come here.
I'm very busy. I ain't got time to come, but I'm here.
My wife wants me home, my baby shit all over, needs diapers.
Get Mr. Juntao?
I already told you, I don't know him.
Think I came here for nothing?
Want to give me gas money? Got $5 on you?
Go upstairs and tell Mr. Juntao get down here.
Thank you.
Can I sit right here?
Right here?
Y'all got any eel?
Sure.
How's your camel hump?
Excuse me.
Where is Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles?
This way?
Sorry, I'm from out of town.
Thank you.
What's that?
Excuse me.
Somebody's asking for Juntao.
Bring him up?
Bring him up.
No, wait.
Get the girl out of here.
Make sure those two don't leave.
Are you ready to order?
No.
Fine.
Juntao will see you.
It's about time.
Stop it! Let me go!
This is tight.
This ain't nothing like downstairs. Y'all got it going.
What's up, man?
What y'all watching?
Where Juntao at?
Why y'all so quiet?
That was childish, man. That wasn't even called for!
Now I came down here to see Juntao
because he told me to come down here
because I'm his half-brother from Beijing.
Me, him got the same mama. I'm Blackanese.
We all the same. Wait a minute!
You going to kill me?
Put the gun down, fight me like a man.
That's right, fight me like a man!
Anybody can shoot somebody.
That's what I'm talking about. Give me room.
You don't know who you messing with I'll knock.
Which one of y'all kicked me?
Me.
All right.
Hold on. Let's talk about this.
Let's talk, hold it a minute.
What that mean?
It's a misunderstanding.
Let's pray about this.
FBI, huh?
No, I ain't FBI. I'm a security guard at the mall.
Now wipe yourself off.
You're bleeding.
He just playing, man. He playing, he didn't mean that.
He meant cut me loose.
Don't move.
LAPD!
Watch out!
Behind you!
Carter!
Freeze!
We kicked y'all ass. All y'all! I got y'all ass.
Carter.
I'll kill you, man.
Lee, over here!
Is that my gun?
It is!
Let's go!
How you going to drop the badge?
Then you threw the gun out the window...
I got everything under control! Don't worry!
Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
It's cool.
Why am I not surprised to find you here.
Dan, I want these two back at the consulate immediately.
Let's take a ride, gentlemen.
You better get your hand off me. Hey man, he with me.
Just let me explain. I'll start from the top.
We were making the drop.
Han was about to get his daughter back and you two screwed it up!
Wait, didn't you hear what Leee siad?
Mr. Lee is on his way to Hong Kong.
Get out before I file obstruction of justice charges against you.
We was about to solve this case...
You're no longer on this assignment, Carter!
Case closed.
I only meant to help. Please forgive me.
I must now rely on the FBI.
They'll take you to the airport.
Juntao was behind this.
Juntao?
Consul Han!
Sorry, sir.
It was all my fault.
Lee would never jeopardize your daughter's life. He loves her.
It's a little too late for apologies, sir.
Consul...
we have a call...
We're ready.
Pick it up!
The ransom is now 70 million.
I'll call tomorrow with instructions.
Deliver the money, or pick up the body of your daughter.
You must understand, what happened tonight was not...
Daddy, are you okay?
Soo Yung.
Tell them I will do whatever they...
Soo Yung.
Sorry, man.
Be sorry for Soo Yung.
No hot leads?
None.
Listen, we're doing everything we can here, right?
Tracing everything coming into the compound...
Excuse me, Consul. You have a guest.
Jck, let me get back to you.
Thomas.
I'm sorry, my friend.
I couldn't stand by and do nothing.
Hey, what's up, baby?
May, you got guts calling me. I'm going to hang up.
Wait a minute, don't hang up.
You know what? You was right about me, all rigth?
I'm sorry.
Are you on drugs?
You was right. I was egotistic, inconsiderate.
I was self-centered. I ain't used to partners.
But it ain't about me, it's about the girl.
She'll die if we don't help her.
You understand what I'm saying?
Not yet, but keep talking.
I think something's big going down tonight.
I need to find out where the Consul will be.
Think you can help me?
I'll see what I can do.
I don't need you to "see." I need you to do it. Can you do it?
Okay, Carter.
All right, one other thing.
What color panties you got on?
Consul Han, I want you to go to the Chinese Expo as you plan.
Have the money in the control room. Be sure to make no more mistake.
I understand, but I want to speak with my daughter!
Excuse me, who's the captain on this plane?
It don't matter.
Tell the captain we got a problem on the left side of this plane.
The engine needs a new alternator.
My supervisior say: "Go fix that plane.
Put that alternator on it.
Don't let that plane leave till I come."
Tell the proper authorities not to move this plane...
before the FAA come and we in shit.
Go on!
What are you doing here?
Get your ass up now.
We got work to do.
Go away. I've disgraced myself.
What about the little girl?
Leave me alone. You could never understand.
A man like me?
You are devoted only to yourself.
You're ashamed of being an officer. You dishonor your father's name.
You know nothing about my father.
You say he's a legend.
My father was a legend
killed making a routine traffic stop...
by some punk who didn't want no ticket.
His partner's supposed to back him up, but never did.
My father was as devoted as you.
And now he's dead. And for what?
A traffic ticket and some punk? What's the honor in that?
You believe your father wasted his life, died for nothing?
Then prove me wrong.
For 15 years, until China resumed control of Hong Kong
Juntao was the most powerful crime lord in southeast Asia.
The British tried to close down his operation.
But we failed.
But why the Consul's daughter?
Detective Inspector Lee helped me
raid every known asset of Juntao's operation.
We confiscated millions in weapons, cash
and a collection of Chinese art that was unsurpassed in the world.
Then Juntao disappeared. No witnesses.
Do you really think he'll kill the girl?
My advice is...
pay the money.
Consul? I'm going upstairs to make the drop.
I want you to remain calm, as if nothing's wrong.
Don't leave Agent Whitney's side even for a moment.
I understand.
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. I am Consul Han.
On behalf of the People's Republic of China,
thank you for coming.
I am pleased to present 5000 years of China's history and heritage.
A collection witch, until recently, was thought to be lost forever.
This some nice shit.
Buddha'd go good in my bathroom.
Hey, this is the history of my country.
Priceless pieces of Chinese culture.
If anything gets damaged...
Don't worry. Ain't nothing going to happen to this.
And now, we can pass them on...
...to our children.
Pardon me.
I seen that guy at that Chinese restaurant.
Consul Han has been fighting flu for the past few days,
so perhaps I should finish what he started.
First we got to clear out the riffraff.
Anybody stay behing, they got something to lose.
Wait here. I'll be back.
...in creating a peaceful future between our two countries.
The more we see differences and similarities...
Excuse me.
I'm Detective Carter from the LAPD.
We got Carter down here.
What is going on?
We received a threat on the building.
We ask if you exit the building as soon as possible
and please do not panic.
Did you hear what I said? Get out the door!
There's a bomb here.
What's this panic about? Have the agents hold positions.
Everybody, take cover, hold your positions.
Get your ass out the building.
Lady, put the glass down, get out of here.
Woman, the exit over there or you'll get your head blowed off.
Come on, come on!
Come on, titty, titty! Get them titties out of here!
Somebody grab Carter!
Juntao.
Consul Han, six blocks of C-4 are wired to your daughter outside.
Before the changeover, most of this exhibition
was in the hands of a single private collector.
Me.
I worked most of my life
to acquire and catalog these priceless pieces you see before you
And then in one fell swoop...
it was taken from me.
But tonight
I shall be paid in full.
Don't move!
She dies if I press this button.
Just be patient.
My transportation will be here shortly.
Stay calm.
I was going to tell you, you're in the red zone.
There's cops all over.
Didn't know I could do that, did you? Put your hands up!
I ain't going to kill you. I'm just going to kick your ass!
Tell your friends about me.
How you doing?
We been looking for you. I'm Carter from the LAPD.
Everything's okay now. I'll take you to your daddy, all right?
First thing I'll do, I'll take this vest off.
Don't touch it!
I think it'll be safer if we take it off.
I heard them say it will explode.
Okay, I think it'd be safer if we leave it on. Don't move.
Where are you?
I'll be there about five minutes.
Everything is fine.
Over!
Don't move!
Hold your positions!
Do not draw your weapons!
Ladies and gentlemen, I think we'll call that an evening...
Thank you, and good night.
Juntao.
Juntao!
I got something for you!
I got something you want.
I got your bomb right here.
Sweetheart.
Daddy!
Hold on.
Want to blow something up?
Come on.
Push the button. Come on.
Push the button.
What are you doing?
I'm playing. Play along.
Come on, push the button!
Yeah, come on, push the button!
Blow everybody up.
Yeah, blow everybody up!
Push the goddamn button.
You heard what she said.
Come on!
Everybody excited about something blowing up
and look at your little punk British ass.
Come on! Push the button!
Deal with it, please.
Where you going?
Cover the Consul!
No, no.
It's okay. She's professional.
We must take the vest off.
Okay, give me a second.
Just give me a second.
There's a trigger on this vest. It'll blow if I take it off.
Haven't you done this before?
It's different in the practice room.
Everybody take cover.
We need more men down here!
Say again! Dan, do you read me?
Need some help down here, damn it!
"Roses are red"
"Violets are blue"
"Sugar is sweet"
"And so are you"
The remote can still set it off.
Get rid of it.
She okay? Yes.
I know that ain't the bomb!
Get that bomb away from me! Take the bomb outside!
Take the bomb outside.
Juntao.
Yeah, take it over to Juntao. Go to Juntao.
You go this way. I go that way.
Go!
Don't shoot!
Shit!
Where you going?
Meet me on the roof.
Don't move, man.
Yeah.
I been looking for your sweet and sour chicken ass.
Your boys ain't here. Where they at? You all alone.
I kill him.
Go ahead. I don't like him.
Put your gun down.
Fight like a man.
What you say?
Fight like a man.
Fight like a man?
All right. I'll kick your ass. Then I'll take your ass to jail.
All right, come on, put the gun down.
Same time.
Wipe yourself off, man. You dead.
Thank you, God.
Carter.
Oh, shit.
You know he dead.
Carter.
Help! Do something!
Be cool, man! Hang on!
I can't hold on anymore!
Hang on for about a hour! I'll get the ambulance! I'll be back!
What the hell are you doing?
Just hang on! I'll be right back!
Carter.
I was just playing.
Do something!
I can't hold on anymore.
Oh, shit.
Thank you, thank you.
Man, what the hell you doing?
I just being polite.
Next time, be polite to my nuts.
I'm sorry.
Thank you.
Oh, shit.
Excuse me. Are you all right?
I'm fine.
I owe you everything.
Only your friendship.
Look who's here.
What took you so long?
I think this belongs to you.
Thank you.
You should come with me.
Get on the plane when you get off work. You fly for free.
I'm a young black man trying to expand my horizons.
Travel a little bit. See the world.
What y'all doing? I'm through with y'all. I'm going on vacation.
Now, hold on there.
We came by to tell you what a great job you did yesterday.
And when you come back, there'll be an FBI badge waiting for you.
You serious?
Come on, man, don't be playing.
I don't know what to say. It's like a dream come true.
I got a idea though.
Why don't y'all take that badge
and shove it up yoru ass? All up in your ass.
I'm LAPD.
Bitch.
First class, I like this. This is tight.
Can I take your jacket, sir?
My jacket? No, you can take this bag though.
How you doing? What's up?
What's up, man? You ready to go?
May I offer you some peanuts?
Thank you.
You are very beautiful.
Thank you very much.
You never told me you spoke Chinese.
I never told you I didn't. You assume I didn't.
This is cool. Han's letting me go to Hong Kong with you.
I ain't had a vacation in 5 years.
We can hang in my crib. I will show you my 'hood.
You can show me some Chinese girls.
When I get there, I want a massage. I'll get buck-wild.
No police work for two weeks... How long this flight?
Fifteen hours.
Fifteen hours? What are we going to do for 15 hours?
Hell, no.
Stewardess!
Stewardess, give me another seat!
Listen to me!
Stewardess!
