Quite a show.

I'm impressed.

The question is, are you Pete? I'll be honest with you. You're pretty good,

but... But... Go ahead, say it.

For what?

It's not good enough, eh?

No. No way.

Not for what you're walking into.

Not exactly what we were hoping to hear.

We?

Who's this?

Jody Powell, your new partner.

Sound like you know what worked better alone.

This comes from Blaisdell.

Well... Dan, I gotta find a way into that tournament to try out for this

afternoon. You got a trick move or something you can show me?

Look, Dan, I've shown you everything I got. That's all there is.

Well, right now, a young girl's life depends on me knowing a move that is

put Bruce Lee on his back.

I'm looking forward to working with you too, detective.

The grandson of Kwai Chang Kane walks out of the past.

But I want to fight.

So did your great -grandfather when he was your age.

He teaches his son wisdom at a Shaolin temple.

An evil force destroyed that temple. Father and son each believed the other

perished. Fifteen years later, they were reunited.

Now Kane faced new challenges.

And his son grew up.

Look, I'm not my father. I don't do kung fu. I'm a cop. That's who I am. That's

what I... I am gay.

I will help.

Hey, nice chair.

This place needs some furniture.

Somehow I just can't picture you shopping.

It was a gift.

From someone you helped?

Yes.

Well, I'm not here to bring you a gift, but I do need your help.

What are you doing?

Is it called gardening?

That doesn't look like any gardening I've seen. That's magical.

Of rain from the sky, dust from sunlight, all unite together to create

And anyway,

the plant seems to like it.

In an hour, I've got to compete in a major martial arts tournament.

Really?

I am pleased.

Don't be. It's undercover work.

There's no way I'm going to qualify.

Why not?

You've been training for this all your life.

Well, I know. And, Pop, the moves that you taught me are great.

I need a trick.

A trick?

I'll make you a lot of money someday.

No, I'm serious. This is very serious stuff.

So is Kung Fu.

There are no tricks.

There is only discipline, training, practice.

I know all that.

There's got to be an exception.

Okay, a 17 -year -old girl has been kidnapped.

Her time's running out.

She's got six hours for a ransom to be delivered, or she dies.

I ran through some information on my computer.

It says that the guy running this tournament may be involved.

He's got a security company that he's using to target the children of wealthy

families. So why should this girl die?

Well, her abductors miscalculated.

Turns out that this girl's parents don't have the money.

You have, as they say, not much to go on. I know.

It's a long shot.

But it's all I got.

And usually those are the ones I get.

I...

I don't need to compete in the main competition. I just need to get inside

Kinnessy's operation.

I just need one move. One move.

Please.

I need a butt kicker.

A butt kicker?

Attack me.

Attack you?

That's the one.

Can you pass me a knife, please?

What?

I'd like to cut the tension in here a little.

Sorry.

I guess I was just thinking about that girl.

Grabbed from her room in the middle of the night alone.

Waiting, terrified.

I guess I just... Relayed everything to my own...

My sister always told me that your childhood was something very special.

It was until I was 12. Powell's not your real name?

Married to Jim Powell when I was 22, divorced at 23.

My maiden name is Blakemore.

Kira was my sister.

Officer needs assistance in the alleyway south end of Magnolia.

No wonder Blake still wanted us to ride together.

Yeah, well, maybe he wants you to stop blaming yourself for her death. I did.

Cops die in the line of duty.

It's something that happens.

You go into this life, you know the risks.

Look, Kira was a very good cop, and you treated her like one.

You could show me the same courtesy.

Well, good cops don't do what we're about to do. We're working undercover.

We're going to break the law.

If the feds had evidence, Tennessee would be in jail right now.

We're going in there without a warrant. Now look it up. It's called breaking and

entering.

Besides, anything we find is not going to be admissible in court.

Oh, from the repetition I hear, that wouldn't stop you for a second.

I think your sister talked a little too much.

You keep them occupied. I'll get into Kinase's office. Maybe we'll get lucky

their computer.

Yeah, well, if that doesn't work, I'm going to jam the barrel of a gun down

Kinase's throat and make him tell me where Jennifer is. The hell you are.

got a game plan, and let's just keep to it.

Why are the tryouts in Kinase's building?

He likes to hold them where he trains his own guys. The finals will be at the

arena tomorrow.

You think we'll make it that far?

If we do, Jennifer's dead.

The Guinness Day holds this competition every year.

Advanced ticket sales point to another successful event, Mr. Guinness Day.

Yes, I'm gratified.

Martial arts have always been an essential part of my life.

Come on, Howard.

This is supposed to be your year.

To share the discipline, the grace, the austerity with the public is my payback.

There are champions arriving from all over for your tournament, yet you still

hold open tryouts.

Yes, you never know where the next great martial artist will come from.

You came with the cop, remember?

You got anything?

Officers are on the second floor. I'm on my way. You report to the guy with too

much grease in his hair. The one holding the clipboard. Candy Park. Can you see

the system?

No, I'm dead. He would love them.

Do you think I should call the paramedics now or later?

I... I got my dad's trick move.

Next. Come on, Ben. You saw what he did.

If you want.

If you want to move gracefully by Baldwin, Benson.

But you go to hell, old man.

Never call me that again.

Who's next?

Callahan!

Hey, Callahan, let's go.

Callahan?

Harry Callahan.

Do it, Harry.

You're kind of a hero.

Hmm. Great.

Well, I'll just make my day.

What, do we shake hands first, or do I bow, or what?

Never mind.

anything just to close up now and go for a skinny dip.

What do you say to that, Cain?

A cooling thought.

How come you never give me a straight answer on anything?

I am a simple man.

Darling, you have got to be the most complicated guy I ever met.

Look at all the hours we spend together, but I don't know the first thing about

you. What do you?

Wish to know.

Take your pick.

Where are you from? Where are you going?

Your likes, your dislikes.

I like you.

You're not just saying that because I got you cornered.

No. You have a gentle spirit.

Your friendship touches others.

Well, thank you for saying so, Cain.

And it's real sweet.

You betcha.

We just kicked butt for the best in the world, honey. So we want some beer,

hamburgers, fries, and the curly ones, making fat and sassy. Oh, we'll take

place apart.

Yes! Won't be the first time.

Yes, it would be, sister.

Because when I take a place apart, you have to rebuild it from the ground and

up.

Lighten up, Ben. You don't have to prove anything to her.

It's part of my training. What's it to you? What kind of training? You did not

learn that in some back alley kung fu academy.

Who taught you that?

I don't remember. I had lots of trainers.

Who the hell are you?

Kinase. This is my tournament.

Well, I just stomped on your number three guy.

Do I qualify or what? Yeah, you qualify, Callahan. You're in. I wouldn't miss

watching you fight for anything in the world.

I haven't seen that move in ten years.

Martial arts champion?

No. There's some guy working in a diner in the middle of nowhere.

Chili Cafe, Texas.

Never been there.

What was he doing working in a diner?

Washing dishes.

You got some nice moves, kid.

Real nice.

But maybe you were lucky.

We'll find out tomorrow.

Tell me you're getting these Kermit.

That's it, baby.

Keep them coming.

on here?

I've been shown into this office and told to wait. Mr. Kinase will be right

you, Ms. Powell.

So where the hell is he?

Just what did you want to see Mr. Kinase about?

A job.

I'm an executive secretary.

Mr. Kinase already has a secretary.

Is that right? Well, maybe your boss just wants a tête -à -tête with a girl

wears your clothes too tight.

Forget it. This outfit is a little too macho for me anyway.

No chance I Do not require them of course

not You are troubled You can

sense that Everything else in the garden is in harmony

Something which happened many years

ago

hangs on my heart.

Ah, we must be careful of what we carry there.

A man was injured as a result of my actions.

There are some pains the mind can ignore,

but the heart cannot.

Those must be embraced and set free.

What's the latest on the Newley family?

Well, the old man's putting the ransom together.

It'll be collected by midnight tonight.

Then we call him with the drop set.

He hasn't got it.

What do you mean, he hasn't got it? They're living in a $3 million home.

I know.

When we put the security system in, I went over every part of it.

Mortgage is up to Newley's elbows. Look, I told you he wasn't the right target.

And I'm not interested in your opinions, Parks.

I make the decisions here.

I select the targets.

Now, does the family know that we're not bluffing?

Do they know that they're going to have their daughter delivered on their front

lawn with her throat sliced at 2 a .m.? They know.

Who is that guy?

He's some guy off the street who's got a few good moves, that's all.

That's the girl, the one that was in here.

Oh, you sure about that?

Wouldn't forget that figure.

Barks.

Take Stone with you.

Follow them.

I think we're being followed.

Slickback hair, green jacket, Marshall's vest.

Oh, right.

Mm -hmm.

Well, he's probably going to follow me, so I want to split up and keep him off

the street away from any innocent bystanders. You go back to the precincts

we got, all right?

Great.

Just work.

I'm so stunned by my martial arts display you had to see it again, huh?

Mr. Kinase would like to know just who the hell you are.

Who do you want me to be?

Are you a cop?

Are cops banned from your martial arts competition on principle?

Mr. Kinase likes to know who he's dealing with.

So maybe I'm a cop, so what?

Has Kinase got some unpaid parking fines?

Maybe he's running a large -scale dorsion operation that's falling apart

scene.

No hard feelings, right?

Of course not. No, you could take injections like an adult.

You ever spend any time in a mental institution?

No, can't say I have. It's the solitude that gets to you.

It's eroding.

Gives you too much time to think about yourself. All the flaws.

All the flaws?

Had an argument with a guy one night.

After a martial arts tryout.

I beat him to death.

Well, I'm sure you had a good reason.

Took my parking space.

Good reason?

What are you working on now?

I don't like your face.

I don't like your attitude.

I don't like your style of fighting.

I got great teeth.

Still breathing.

I'll call the paramedics.

You were following me, Pop.

No, I was following him.

He was following you.

We gotta talk, Pop.

Yeah.

How's Jennifer doing?

After hours of begging and pleading, she's finally shut up.

Except for the odd whimper.

Well, she's scared.

Wouldn't you be?

What's chewing on you?

My conscience.

Oh, let me talk to you.

Please let me talk to you. Just... Please?

You better be careful. She didn't see you, did she?

No.

But it doesn't matter this time.

Her old man can't make the ransom.

Now, if she goes past the deadline...

Kinase wants you to waste her.

We never had to kill anyone before.

Rules have changed.

You did good, Jordan.

Real good.

It's up at the core in 72 seconds.

Bank accounts, financial statements,

growth files.

The feds would squat to get this stuff.

How do you see anything with those glasses on, Kermit?

Life's better green.

Anybody want a gummy bear? We're running out of time, Kermit.

You've got the growth potential of Kinisei Securities. Have you got

that's going to link them to the kidnapping?

We need to know now if we're going to save Jennifer's life.

Patience was never your long suit, Peter.

It's in here.

Somewhere.

Needles glow in haystacks. That's why I wear green glasses.

Your attention is great.

That girl could be buried alive with her air running out for all we know.

No. Can you see her?

Yes.

She is in the darkness.

Very frightened.

But she is alive.

Where? Where is she?

I do not know. I can see only the darkness.

Are you no closer to finding her?

No.

Well...

I mean, we better.

We're running out of options.

I blew my cover with Kennedy.

Perhaps not.

Tell me about him.

It is personal.

Do you know what happens in a police investigation?

Nothing is personal.

Everything gets put out on the table, and especially when a young girl's life

in danger. Now, I want some answers. Let's start in a small town in Texas

Chilicote. Chilicote.

Yes.

I myself was searching for answers, traveling, working.

Dishwasher, I understand.

For those moments.

So you ran into Kinase and something happened?

Yes.

Hey, Ben's got something to prove to everyone. Isn't that right?

He just won a big martial arts tournament. He's the best in the world,

celebrating. Yes!

Best in the world?

I'm not so sure about that, Ben. You might not even be the best in this

What are you talking about?

The guy over there?

I bet money that he could nail your ass.

The Dutch boy?

He's got tattoos on his wrist.

That's the mark of a Shaolin priest.

They're pretty scary.

I hear they can drop you with one finger.

Yeah, fine. Let's find out.

Okay. Come on, Ben.

He'd just go to you because he lost you in the second round.

This should be fun.

Say, Chinaman, is it true what he says, that you're some kind of a priest?

I am a busboy.

That's very funny.

Because you kind of look like a worm to me.

Check what you are.

Some kind of a worm.

I am what you see.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Show me what you got, Chinaman.

I do not wish to fight you.

It's just a dishwasher.

Not going to fight you without a reason.

Give him a good reason.

Three guesses with that Chinaman got that lipstick smudge on his cheek.

Hey, sweet lips.

Well, how do you know?

Hey, are you the special on the menu here?

You stay away from me.

Whether I do or not depends strictly on your boyfriend over there.

Goodness. Do not touch her.

Okay, I won't touch her.

What do you say, Chinaman?

That's you and me get to it, shall we?

Get back.

Okay, man. Okay.

Okay, come on.

Okay.

Oh, God!

So he started a fight with you. You nailed it.

Why should you feel guilty about that?

I allowed it to him.

You're not telling me everything.

I have told you all that you need to know.

He didn't get it all.

What?

Kinsey's computer is tempested. Damn!

Of course it is.

What am I thinking of?

You didn't get the MYOB file.

What the hell are those?

Mind your own business.

Kermit? MYOB. Mind your own business.

These are the files. Yes!

I've encoded his precious files with the outdated Q -Box file protection version

3. Kenneth A. unknowingly opens his guarded secrets to a full -flank attack

file inscription Codebreaker Dragon Master version 3 .6.

In English, please.

I think the information we seek is in the secret files.

And they can be accessed in 22 seconds with what I am about to give you.

Accessed?

You want me to go back in that office and access their computer?

No other way to do it, sweetcakes.

Ta -da.

We took out Kennedy's right -hand man. They're going to know I'm a cop.

Not if you go back with me.

Come on.

The last person in the world Kennedy wants to see is you again.

I am the only person he wants to see.

While we engage him in conversation, you will exit his computer.

How soon will the girl die?

Two hours.

Then you must go now.

And tomorrow at the arena?

That may have five cameras, two wide -angle from the rear, two on the

spectators, and a steady cam on the combatants.

You got that?

Have you heard from Parks yet?

No, sir.

Mr. Parks isn't going to be reporting in.

He'll have to make a phone call from intensive care.

You put my instructor in intensive care.

Well, he came at me with brass knuckles.

I hate that.

I guess I'll have to move you up in the rankings.

Come on, Jody. Talk to me.

Send you to the lion's den. I'm sitting here. Let's get the show on the road.

We're not green.

What's that? Your eyes.

Yeah. Bring it on home to Kermit.

Eight seconds.

Nine seconds.

You know, I still want to know where you learned that move.

Four seconds.

She did it.

Jody, Jody, Jody, you get the key to my heart and the liquor cabinet.

What have we got?

Give me ten minutes.

Great.

Another job interview?

It had to be you.

He couldn't possibly have learned that move from anybody else.

Is he your son?

Yeah.

Well, you got some nerve, China man.

Walking in here like this.

But then again, that's what it's all about, isn't it?

Nerve.

And who is the best?

I have come to ask your forgiveness.

Forgiveness?

For what? For accepting your challenge.

I was dishonored by my actions and by the injury I caused you.

Never mind the injury.

It was getting beaten.

Ow!

Ow! Ow!

Ow! My leg!

Ow! My leg!

That dishwasher.

You were beaten by your own rage.

That might be.

But I have mellowed a lot over the past ten years.

Let's see how it goes this time.

I am not here to fight you.

Then you're here to die.

What the hell's going on here?

Retribution, officer. I assume you are the police.

But not your father.

He's here for reasons of his own.

Magemont Hotel.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

Fifth time that's come up in this file.

Owned by Kinisei Holdings.

Check the dates.

Peter was right.

They correspond with the last four kidnappings.

That's where Jennifer is.

to protect my death.

I've never seen you leave your computer before, Kermit. I thought I'd get some

fresh air, find out what's happening in the world. Is Nixon still president?

I

don't need

two good legs.

I have this.

Let's get to it, China man.

carried your pain as well as mine all these years now perhaps we are both

free

Get these off.

It's all over now.

Everything's fine.

Everything's going to be okay. Everything's going to be fine.

It's okay.

Cain.

Hey.

Were you really going to leave without saying goodbye?

I did not know how to find you.

Barney says you're the best dishwasher he's had in years.

He hates to lose you.

So do I.

What is it you're looking for out there?

When I find it.

That's for fighting for a girl's honor.

Hey, send me a postcard.

From wherever.

Let me know how you are.

Maybe.

And I'll come and find you.

See ya.

But I didn't care.

Sir.

Well,

that's what it was all about.

Thought you might like to meet her.

A beautiful child.

But that is not what it was all about. It was a question of honor.

Yours are kinesis.

Yeah.

What do you mean, yes?

Kenneth Lee attacked you from behind.

Where's the honor in that?

I allowed it to happen. Where is the honor in that?

Kenneth Lee was a blackmailer and a kidnapper. He's out the streets, and

all they care about.

Yes.

Tell me, can I look forward to any more surprises from your past?

Perhaps.

The past may sometimes benefit the present.

Now...

I must leave.

You must... Where are you going?

To send a postcard.

A postcard?

Yeah.

A postcard.

Why not?

Why should I understand anything you do at all?
