Previously on Martial Law.

Lee Hayes has been smuggling the fake diamonds in the cars he's been stealing,

handing them to Asia.

That's Lee Hayes.

I'm impressed.

Very good. Very good.

What's policing like in that godforsaken, dog -eaten, overpopulated

You are a very unhappy person.

Get the fool out of me.

We'll be sending one of our own finders over to Shanghai.

I'm not going, you hear me?

Shanghai is a beautiful place.

Wherever you try to hide, I will track you down, you hear me?

What happens now?

They get sent back to Shanghai.

It is my great honor to introduce the mayor of Shanghai, Mr. Chang Yin, and

introduce him to Los Angeles.

Thank you. I am happy to be among so many new friends, and needless to say,

several old ones.

I hope that my visit not only will bring two cities together, but two cultures

together. Please, continue with the festivities, and thank you again.

Oh, yeah.

You're looking good.

Sam and the mayor look pretty tight.

Yeah, they go back a long way.

They told me it was one of Sam's biggest advocates to show him.

Remember him?

Well, they promoted him. Mr. Mayor, Captain Law, could we talk in private?

The hay has escaped.

When? The details are rather sketchy, but I believe 48 hours ago.

Why were we not informed earlier?

The warden was too embarrassed, so he wasted a lot of valuable time conducting

his own search.

My only regret is that my top cop is here instead of in Shanghai. I will

Shanghai PD and help them any way I can.

Thank you.

So this Lee Hay is a pretty bad boy, huh?

Of all the criminals I have encountered, Li He is the worst.

That bad?

Yes.

He is the reason Hebe and I came to LA.

Hey, look, Samuel.

The little ceramic bird, they must be giving him away as party pay.

See what this says.

Try that.

He says boom.

Does boom in Chinese mean the same thing it means in English?

Yes.

It is from Lee Hay.

Don't move.

I'm not moving.

Slowly look under your seat.

Nothing.

Look under mine.

I'm going to look again.

I'm no expert, but I think you're sitting on a bomb.

Is there a timer?

Yes, and a little sideways thingy. Precious. Switch.

If I stand up.

Boom.

How much time?

A minute five and going south.

I don't leave as much time to call the bomb squad. What color are the wires?

I got a red one, a blue one, and a green one. Good. Maybe simple to disarm.

You also got yellow, black, but like a little stripy one, taupe.

Tope? Yeah, Tope.

And we got 45 seconds left.

We must find something heavy to take my place.

Oh, yeah, like a counterweight. But what?

That rock.

That ain't a rock. That's a boulder.

Who?

Rick.

Harry. Okay, it's a boulder, man.

Okay, I'm going to slide this under you. Slide out.

group has yet stepped forward to claim responsibility, but we don't believe

the bomb was in any way connected to the mayor of Shanghai's visit.

Hey, Lewis, have you seen my replacement?

They can't do better than that. That's the new LAPD spokesman.

Only as a precautionary measure.

Wrong.

You never give the public the impression of security with anything left in the

back.

Yeah, it's one.

Who? I was there. Who got hurt? Get your facts straight, Opie.

A 15 -year -old black Labrador dog was hit by a piece of falling debris from

the... car, due to his old age and frail conditioning, had to be put down.

Oh, spare me.

I'm a dog lover, but come on. This is a press conference, not a Barbara Walters

interview. Terrell, who cares? No offense, man, but no one really cares

these guys have to say. Believe me, it's in one ear, out the other.

That's where you're wrong.

And it's not about the message, it's about the delivery. When you do it

Lewis, the people feel it, and it gives them confidence in the LAPD. It lets

them know we got their back.

Lewis? Here's the bomb squad report on family car.

Or what's left of it. Thank you, Jane. You're welcome. Hi to Ralph. Hey, Jane.

Los Angeles.

Los Angeles?

You'll

go.

Are you talking to L .A.? Who

is

this? This is Samuel.

Yeah? Well, this is Portman. Remember me?

I'm the guy they sent to Shanghai when they transferred you over there.

Yes, I remember.

You were a very unhappy person.

Oh, yeah?

Well, you should see me now.

I need to talk to Malone.

Louis, this is Portman for you.

Portman.

Hey, Portman. How's it going, man?

How's it going?

How do you think it's going?

What's the worst thing that ever happened to me?

I hate the food, the water, the weather, the chopsticks.

I hate everybody here, Malone, and they hate me.

Well, I guess something's never changed.

You know what they got me filing papers?

Chinese.

I'm sorry to hear that, man.

It says we'll be visiting the Zhengzheng Temple on Monday at 3 p .m. The weather

will be sunny.

Someone gave Li He a warning.

It's Johnny Lau, Li He's lawyer in Shanghai.

He used to always write cryptic messages like this. If the weather was sunny,

it's good news. If the weather was rainy, it's bad news.

Malone, you got a phone and decent seat.

Get me out of here, please.

Get me out of here.

I want the Samalot dead.

The device had a pressure switch. There's just no way he should have

But he did.

Look, I'll make it up to you, okay?

I'll give you a refund.

You Americans are so fond of your money -back guarantees. Well, I've imported

someone 100 % reliable.

No guarantee...

What

are you going to do?

Kill me?

No, he's going to take you to the zoo, but he's going to give you a head start

first.

Run!

That one was for free.

Jamal, just both of that, please.

So you really think Lee Hay would hire the same driver?

You know, Leahy's got a narrow bandwidth of trust, and Jamal's in it.

Besides, you can't find him. That's another good sign.

Mm -hmm.

Is this your best guess to his locale?

Yeah, I remember his brother Damon came out here to be an actor.

Oh, there he is.

Shuttling tourist.

Yeah, Hollywood's a cool place.

Thank you for joining us today on Fox Better Tours.

We will be starting our tour here in Hollywood, then moving into Beverly

and Bel Air to view...

Ticket, please.

Go by Tom Cruise's house.

Right past the parking lot.

How about Julia Roberts?

Close enough you can sniff her trash. Can I have your ticket, please? One more

question. Lee Hay. You go by Lee Hay's house?

Hey, Damon. Looks like your career's really taken off.

LAPD. Relax.

Just want to ask you a few questions about your bro.

I had a hot driver gig for a couple of days.

Who's he driving?

Lee Hay?

I don't know nothing about that.

Then why'd you run?

I ain't talking to you.

That's right, you're not.

You got somebody else in mind.

Where's Lee Hay?

Oh, no, you didn't spit on me. I'm going to forgive you for doing that. You

can't forgive me. Spit on me.

Hey, it's Li Hei.

I don't know where Li Hei is.

And I can't help you.

But you're going to be unconscious.

Okay,

okay, okay.

All my brother told me is that Li Hei was supposed to look like some badass

Shanghai.

Calls himself Golden something.

Golden Dragon?

That can do it.

You know Golden Dragon, Salmon?

Yeah.

The Golden Dragon is Shanghai's premier assassin.

He's hired mostly by the Triads, and he's totally indiscriminate.

How indiscriminate? He takes out the target, and anyone else in the way does

matter. All right.

We need to get a photo and a description of this guy so we can put out an APB.

There are no pictures of Golden Dragon.

He is a master of disguise.

Damn.

So we got Shanghai's number one bad guy running around with their most revered

assassin. That's one lethal couple.

All right, Sammo, you got any ideas on how we can get a line on this guy?

I may not know his face, but I know his methods.

Hey, be careful.

Keep your eyes on the road.

Okay, you're saying this Golden Dragon guy killed some innocent nobody, hates

his identity, and travels to the U .S.? Yes. This man, Yang Xin, was killed in

Shanghai the day before yesterday.

Now go to Dragon, using his identity, and staying at the Bonaventure, and

driving a Lincoln Rent -A -Car.

Pretty good for a dead guy.

I have good news from Geneva.

You got my money?

In dollars or francs?

I... What is it?

There's no peace, sir. Lieutenant.

You gotta guess by the name of the game. Shit, we need to get...

Sam O 'Law is here.

Meet me in the basement.

Thanks for the call.

3151, let's hit it.

Looks like nobody's home.

Easy, dog.

Golden Dragon has just left.

He must still be in the hotel.

I'll call for backup.

By the time they get here, Golden Dragon is gone.

I will go look for him. You stay here and search the hotel.

This is Samuel.

Can you guess who this is?

Mihei.

I was hoping to see you again.

Where? Take the elevator to the fifth floor. Turn the elevator off and wait.

I see nothing changed.

When I say half, you half.

Only a fool beats a tiger.

You're no tiger, Samuel Law. You're a coward.

You send your student Pei Pei into danger rather than face me yourself.

I knew your weakness.

So did your wife.

Samuel Law, you're supposed to be the best cop in China.

But here I am, a free man once again.

You cannot stop me.

You see all those innocent people down there? It's the army.

Golden Dragon, keeping a watch on you.

If I don't walk out of this hotel, I'm harmed.

You know what he's capable of doing.

Women, children.

I told him, it's over.

Their blood will be on your hands.

Give my regards to Pepe.

We must cancel the rest of your public events.

We find your picture in Golden Dragon's room. You are his target.

Oh, Consul General, please excuse us. I would like to have a few words in

private with my old friend.

Of course.

I respect your word like that of a... brother, but I cannot allow myself to be

intimidated by Li He.

A man is the bravest when he exercises caution.

You will not lose face if you cancel.

But I'm not afraid of losing face.

You see, in two days, I'm scheduled to sign a deal with an American consortium

for $2 billion to build a state -of -the -art water purification plant for

Shanghai.

And if I leave now, that deal will fall through.

And I cannot allow that to happen.

I understand.

But we must not underestimate Lee's threat.

And we cannot kowtow to him either.

You must protect me.

I trust you with my life.

My hair look okay? Wonderful.

Excuse me.

Terrell Parker.

Pleasure to meet you.

The car detailer. I got my keys right here. Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Car detailer.

Lieutenant Terrell Parker. I'm the guy that used to do your job.

Oh, right, the old spokesperson.

We have lost O .J., right? No, no, that was the guy before me. Look, I just

wanted to see if you had any questions about the job. Can I help?

You know, advice on navigating the world of senior department politics and big

-time TV journalism.

You don't have any questions for me, do you?

Not really.

Ever since I arrived in Los Angeles, things have really fallen into place.

Oh, so you were a competent spokesperson elsewhere.

No, I was a weatherman.

Channel 36, Topeka.

Topeka.

Wait a minute.

How does a weatherman named Blaine from Topeka suddenly become qualified to be

the official spokesperson for the LAPD?

I was famous for enunciating.

No, no, no. But between you and I, I don't plan on spending a lot of time

this. I see this job as more of a stepping stone that's going to catapult

into my dream job.

And that might be...

Co -anchoring entertainment tonight?

No.

Like John Tess used to do?

Exactly. Got to go. Showtime.

Nothing on any of Golden Dragon's known aliases.

He's vanished.

Oh, we got one thing, Lieutenant.

We swept the rental car, found this snag to the trunk latch.

What is it, a dry -cleaning tag?

Maybe. Grace is trying to pinpoint the store.

Excellent.

The ticket comes from a costume shop in West Hollywood.

Great. Knock it out.

My fork, it's gone.

Somebody stole my fork.

Fork I brought all the way from America.

What are you doing?

Somebody stole my fork. I ate my last meal in America with that fork. It's a

that was familiar to me.

Now it's gone because somebody thought it'd be funny to steal a fat, dumb

American's fork.

Yeah, I don't know if you noticed, but over here, people don't like me.

I have noticed.

But I suspect that people don't like you over there either.

Sam will tell you that?

No. I figured it out on my own.

What do you want?

We recovered this box of files from Li He's lawyer's office.

But they are in English.

You want me to translate?

We want you to tell us their significance.

Now this is a switch.

So, will you do it?

Sure, why not?

Beats filing.

Maybe if you do a good job...

I will help you find your fork.

Is it normal for a business of this size to have this level of security?

For reasons of security, I'm afraid questions about security are off limits

this time. Sorry, no.

I can't believe this is the guy that got to replace me. He's not even a cop.

Why should he be a cop?

To do the job right.

I mean, you have to understand the balance of information that the public

with the nuances of a cop's mindset.

There are a lot of guys on the street he represents.

He looks good on camera.

I think here in L .A., that is enough.

Makeup and hairspray, that's all it takes? I don't think so.

You know who this guy wants to be?

John Tesh. I mean, literally, he wants to be John Tesh. See, you don't even

who the heck John Tesh is, but it's this bizarre music phenomenon.

I can't even begin to explain it to you. I know John Tesh.

Dutch on the Beach is a very relaxing CD.

I confiscated 12 ,000 pirate copies in China.

You know, Shanghai just has not been the same without you.

L .A. ain't been the same since we got here.

I'm going to bust you now. Hey, Mary, let me ask you a question. Did it really

take five cops to replace him when he left?

Well, actually, it was seven.

Two had to retire because of exhaustion.

Well, with the LAPD.

Well, my, my. So you are.

What can I do for you?

We need to know what was rented by whoever lost this claim check.

Oh, well, let's see.

Oh, this was rented only yesterday, so it should be right here on top.

Um, 54, 55.

Oh, here we go.

How ironic.

One of our most popular costumes.

LAPD uniform.

This is Sammo.

You look a bit nervous.

Hey, hey.

Okay.

Wrong way, Captain Hall.

I'm behind you.

Your eyes are cold.

It's a little warmer.

Sammo! We got a light on the Golden Dragon. We bought a police uniform. He's

masquerading as the LAPD, Sammo.

Protect the mayor.

Excuse me, Mr. Mayor, sir.

With all due respect, my chief's office recommends that you cancel your last few

public engagements.

Sir, I respectfully agree with the lieutenant.

Simon, what do you recommend?

If you wish to continue, we will stay by your side.

Thank you.

There, it's settled.

We will go to the tree planting.

Mr. Mayor, sir, I must reiterate, this is very dangerous.

Lieutenant. I understand, and I well appreciate your concern. But if I bend

the will of criminals like Li He, what will the people think about Shanghai and

its citizens?

I hope you understand.

I don't believe that!

Town King's family law has not made my job any easier.

You only have one more day to complete your task before the mayor flies back to

Shanghai.

Each event carries a greater risk.

And that's the consequence of your failure.

Well, this one will work. Good. To introduce to you the Honorable Ching

I am pleased to be here today to plant this cherry tree as a symbol

of our friendship between two cities.

Los Angeles forever be strong and prosperous.

I thank you.

Sam, let me ask you a question. Why do you think Lee was the mayor saying I

I think it is connected to the filtration plan contract.

It is about one thing, money.

John,

I see it! Get out!

There was no gun. It was just a car tire blowout.

Sounded like a gun.

This is an example of how well organized the department is for protecting

visiting dignitaries.

Well, I don't have a statement to make right now. We're all very nervous. The

mayor not safe.

What kind of security measures do you have? Hi, Lieutenant Terrell Parker. I'm

the former spokesperson for the department.

I just want to say a few words. I mean, we here at the LAPD have a very

difficult task.

We protect over 500 major visiting dignitaries to this city every year.

They go through every section of our wonderful city.

And you know what?

We've never lost one yet.

And that's because we have more than ample security procedures in place to

handle any situation.

And that's our mission.

Our mission is to make sure that every citizen is protected, from the humblest

guy to the President of the United States. We do both.

And we do it successfully.

Each and every day.

Terrell, maybe you could give us some background.

Will you be coming back as spokesperson?

What about this time?

Do you have any special... So

you're

just going to keep sitting there? You come over here and find out what's going

on.

Please, enlighten me.

These files are a proposal bid for a water filtration plant that's been built

here in Shanghai.

Aiming to accompany his Western Allied Water Technology.

Based in good old Southern California.

That's not the interesting part.

What is?

These files are stolen.

How do you know?

Files are facts.

Take a look at the timestamp.

Now. I don't know too many law offices that are open for business in Los

at 3 a .m. in the morning.

You know, you might not believe this, but in L .A., I'm a pretty good cop.

Can I talk to you?

Sure, man.

Boy, I lost it.

My career's over.

Oh, calm down. Have a seat, mate.

I mean, you were so good.

Did you ever do weather?

I had a girlfriend named Rain, but no, not per se.

I mean, first there's that dog getting killed with a bomb.

Then I cause a near panic in the park.

I just don't think I'm cut out for this city.

Whoa, whoa, you're being too hard on yourself.

Everybody's got a learning curve.

That's when I was starting to believe my fan mail, too.

You get fan mail?

Only about 100 letters a week.

Not like when I was back in Kansas.

Listen, do you think maybe you could show me some of your old stuff?

You know, give me some pointers.

I think I could learn from you.

I'd be happy to.

But wait, back up.

A hundred pieces a week?

You were talking about me, weren't you?

Li Hei has an interest in many companies.

One of them made a rival bid on the water plant contract.

You know, if the mayor is killed before the contracts are signed, then it has to

come up for bid again.

And now that Lee Hay has the details on the American Consortium's bid, he can

undercut them. Lee Hay would make millions of dollars.

Right. Well, now we know why he wants the mayor.

We've still got to come up with a plan to stop him.

I have an idea, but it comes with risk.

Okay, my man.

Free to go.

Stop at the front desk.

By the time you're lucky, I don't see all your cop asses.

Especially you.

Especially you.

All set up?

Yeah, all set up.

You really think he's going to lead us to his brother? Yes.

He will want to warn him about us.

Especially me.

It's Asian.

Man, she kicked me. I was on top of this bus, I'm telling you. Hey, what do we

have here?

A family reunion?

Jamal, we've been looking for you, buddy.

What's the matter? You're not going to buy us a beer?

Hands above the table.

Come here, you.

You don't follow instructions too well, do you?

Where's Lee Hayes? I don't know. Come on, you're his driver. Draw out the map.

Check the other side.

All clear.

Lee Haywood's here.

This is his brand.

Well, LeMay has only got the Chinese opera left before he signs the contracts

tomorrow. And Lee said he had to finish his job tonight.

So tell me, how do these Chinese operas usually end?

In tragedy.

Hey, no one's allowed to be back here.

Sorry.

I'm sorry, sir. You have to go to the front. You all!

Samuel.

Ah, how grand.

I wish you could join us for the performance instead of being on duty.

I know this opera.

I have done it 300 times.

Maybe we'll escort you to your seat.

Thank you.

Enjoy the performance, Gerardo. Thank you.

Samo, Chinyan's in his seat.

Good.

I will check back, thank you.

Oh!

Golden target is here.

Mail, let's go. We've got to go. We've got to get you out of here. Come with

please. Move.

Drop it.

To Amrita.

Hey, babe.

Your beauty almost makes me angry. They touched you.

airports. So far, no Li He.

Patrol officers found the Lincoln Li He carjacked abandoned at the airport.

I guess he has a few aliases of his own.

Chen Yan back in Shanghai and the contract signed.

My guess is that Li He won't be going back to China anytime soon.

This is Sammo.

Hey, Sammo.

How you doing, pal?

It is only permanent.

Hi. I'm out of here.

Thank you for your help.

Who's Portman?

My pleasure, my extreme pleasure.

Anything for my Chinese brethren.

You sound very different.

Happy. Are things better now?

Oh, yeah, so much better. You know, I'm really starting to finally adjust. I

just wanted to call you to make sure that everything turned out okay.

Yes, for now.

Thank you. Now listen, you keep in touch.

Anything you need in the homeland, I'm the guy.

Keep my regards.

To Lieutenant Lee.

Next time I see her, I'll do that. Ni hao and all that. And a big tai jian to

you. Sai jian.

Sammo sends his regards.

Now, let's hurry up and eat, because we've got to see the movie.

Foreman, I have a confession.

You're not married, are you?

No.

I'm the one who stole your phone.

You know what?

I'm way past silverware.

Come on, let's eat.

and it's not about the message it's about the delivery if you do it well

feel it and they have like like if you do it if you do it i

have

an idea but it comes with a rig risker it comes with a rig too

Slowly look under your seat.

Slowly look.

Up next, Kiefer Sutherland stars as a young man searching frantically for his

missing girlfriend in The Vanishing. Then at 10 past 11, an ex -boxer gets

entangled in a kidnap plot in the film noir After Dark, my sweet.
