Jonny Quest, brought to you by...

Hong Kong's a great city. Isn't it, Race?

Yeah. It's a great city, alright.

But I sure wish they'd fix their streets.

Well, I guess we've seen enough for one day.

We'll head back.

Hey, dad. Race. Gain way. Here we come.

- Jonny, slow down. - It's okay, dad.

Our driver said I could try it!

But, boy, I never thought these things could go so fast.

Yippee!

Uh-oh!

The brakes, Jenny. Use the brakes.

- The brakes, Jonny. - I can't!

They won't work. Hang on!

Aa-choo!

Aa-choo!

Better step on it, Race,

so we can get them into some dry clothes.

Right, doctor.

- I'm sorry, dad. - Me, too.

Being sorry isn't enough.

Your prank means repairing or replacing one pedicab

and placating the driver.

You're confined to your quarters till further notice.

Oh, gee.

You mean we'll miss the Chinese New Year's celebration?

We'll see. We'll see.

Wow, what a scary dragon!

It sure is. Oh, boy! This noise.

Sounds like the fourth of July.

- Uh-oh. - Bandit, drop it.

- You'll get hurt. - Hey, no, Bandit. Drop 'em.

- Come here! - Get away from there. Hurry!

That'll teach ya.

I don't think he likes fire crackers.

What a leap! Right into your arms!

Golly, Bandit! I didn't know you could jump so high.

Let's go, boys. Time to have some dinner.

- Boy, this is good! - It sure is. I was starved.

Excuse, please.

You like I take picture?

- Make very fine souvenir. - Sure, why not? Shoot.

Will you look at that ham?

He can smell a camera a mile away.

Hold it, please.

The picture will be ready shortly.

Hoisin, quickly.

The picture.

Dr. Quest.

Come on, Bandit.

Time to stop admiring your picture and get to sleep.

Yes. And don't keep us awake tonight with your snoring.

Good night, Hadji.

Good night, Jonny.

And happy new year.

- Jonny! Jonny! - Huh?

What's wrong with Bandit?

Oh, he's probably having a nightmare.

Dreaming about those firecrackers.

Yeah. That must be it. Go to sleep, Bandit.

But what happened to dad?

- I don't know. - Shouldn't we call the police?

No, Hadji. That's just what we can't do.

Read this.

"Do not call police or Doctor Quest die!"

- What can we do then? - You boys, stay aboard.

I think I know where I can get some answers.

Race, you're not very complimentary.

You've been in Hong Kong three days.

And the first time I see you

is when Dr. Quest gets himself kidnapped.

Do you think I had something to do with it?

No, Jade. I didn't say that.

But you'd never turn down an opportunity

to add to your bank account. We both know that.

I have expensive taste, Race.

But I almost never kidnap my friends... for money that is.

Okay, so you had nothing to do with it.

But not much happens around here that you don't know about.

Now, I want Dr. Quest back, alive and unharmed.

- Now, how about it? - Okay, Race.

I'II lend a hand. But not for old times sake.

- It'll be expensive. - It figures...

(Undo) I told you I have expensive tastc.

- Give me an hour. - One hour. I'll be back.

- Oh, and Jade... - Race.

Would I double cross an old friend?

But Jade, baby, would I lie to you?

You'd II. To your own mentors.

Honest, Jade. I got a real bad memory.

I can't remember nothing.

- Will this help your memory? - Now, that's real strange.

It's beginning to come back to me.

There was a snatch tonight. But... l don't know.

It's gettin' hazy again.

Perhaps more of this will blow the haze away.

Yeah. Well, it helps.

- Ah, yeah. Chu Sing Ling. - What about Chu Sing Ling?

Well, he... gee, I think it's gettin' hazy again.

No. It's gettin' clear.

Chu Sing Ling is entertaining Dr. Quest at Moitu island.

- Why? - I don't know. Baby. Honest.

I'm telling you all I know.

Quest is with Chu Sing Ling right now.

- Impossible. - Oh, come now, Dr. Quest.

A talented scientist like yourself

never uses the word "impossible."

And besides, I have the proof.

- Proof? - Certainly.

I'm not talking a theory, doctor.

I am talking fact. Watch.

You cannot deny what your eyes can see.

- Incredible! - Yes.

Incredible, but still a fact!

Look, Dr. Quest.

Arachnid Araneidae. A common spider.

One exposure to my bacteria and this little fellow will grow

as large as his, uh, brother in that cage.

Who by the way, is still growing.

Surely, Dr. Chu, you realize the hazards you're creating?

Oh, quite, Dr. Quest. Quite.

Your bacteria has the potential destructive power

of the atom bomb.

Right again, doctor.

And you're not taking the proper precautions.

The residue from your bacteria culture tanks is draining

into those marshes and contaminating the sea.

Who can tell what monsters you're breeding out there?

That's one of the problems

you've been brought here to solve.

Meaning what?

Meaning, doctor, control of the growth cells.

I must have the answer. I must know.

And you must realize I can have nothing to do

with your mad scheme.

I understand your refusal, doctor.

And I'm prepared to persuade you to change your mind.

Nothing you could think of would make me change my mind.

You will change.

Do not forget, Dr. Quest.

My people invented the art of persuasion.

Ah, Mr. Bannon. Miss Jade, not here.

Well, she was to return in an hour.

Now, where is she?

She come back. Leave note for you.

Then she go.

"Will deliver Quest. Relax. The price is right."

Alright, where did she go, Kallum?

Kallum, not tell.

But you must tell me. Jade is in great danger.

You can trust me, Kallum.

- Miss Jade go... - Yes, yes...

- Moitu island. - Moitu island.

Thanks, Kallum. And don't worry. I'll bring her back.

Race. Race. What dld you find out?

Any news?

Yes. Bad news.

Your father's being held on an island, south of here.

I'm going after him.

- Well, I'm going with you. - And I.

No, it's too risky. Sorry, boys.

Now, gas up the hydrofoil while I pick up some gear.

Aye-aye, sir.

You still do not care for my pets, Dr. Quest?

This is mad, Chu.

Release me. We'll destroy these monsters before it's too late.

No, doctor.

They will live but you will die

if you do not decide to co-operate.

I will give you three hours to change your mind.

I won't be changing my mind, Chu.

In three hours or in three years.

The bars to these cages can be opened automatically.

I will set the automatic control for three hours.

When you decide to co-operate

just call the guard who will be outside this door.

- And you will be released. - You already have my answer.

You're mad, Chu, mad!

Very well, then die the death your stubbornness demands.

The choice is yours.

Okay, boys. We're here.

Jonny, Hadji, we're here. You can come out now.

You too, Bandit.

How did you know we were here?

Yeah, Race. We didn't make a sound.

You pulled the stowaway bit so often,

I've come to expect it.

Besides, I know how you feel.

We just wanted to help.

I know. Well, I'm glad you're here.

Filo-h? Sun. I can u» you.

How?

To stay here and guard the boat.

And keep out of trouble.

I just don't believe it!

Gosh! What is that noise?

I don't know. But it sure sounds awful.

Shh. Quiet, Bandit.

I think he's worried about Race.

Quiet, Bandit. Bandit! Bandit!

- Come back here! - Bandit!

- Come on, Hadji. - But Race said...

Look, Had“. Dad's “m there somewhere.

Race has gone in and now Bandit's gone.

I can't just stay here and do nothing.

Okay, let's go.

The shots came from those buildings.

Sounds like Race is taking on a whole army.

- Let's go. - Wait. Look.

I'm having a nightmare and I'm not even asleep.

It's Bandit. He's over there.

Come on, Hadji.

- We've gotta help Race. - I know. But how?

- The bulldozer. - Can you drive one?

I don't know. I've never tried.

Sounds like you're having trouble out there.

But too late to save you, Dr. Quest.

You have five minutes before those cages open

to change your mind.

They seem anxious, don't they?

You're wasting your time, Chu. I won't change my mind.

One side, Race. We're coming through!

Be my guest!

Good work, boys!

Take that Bulldozer down by the pier where you'll be safe.

- That's an order. - Right, Race.

Time's up, Dr. Quest.

I will leave you alone with my pets.

Not so fast, pal.

Don't you know it's bad manners

to leave your guests all tied up?

Untie him.

I was beginning to think you might not make it, Race.

So did I, doctor. The traffic was rather heavy.

Maybe your host would like to trade places with you.

Not a bad idea, Race.

You made a serious mistake, my friend,

when you overlooked the guard.

Now, you can both stay and entertain our little pets.

We'll be leaving you now, and...

I'm disappointed in you, Race.

I left you a note saying I'd handle this.

You sure have, Jade. Good work.

Good work, nothing.

Wait till you get my bill.

It's Chu.

- He got away. - We'd better get outta here, too.

We're locked in. Look out!

Quick! The window. Out that way!

Someone here called a cab?

We'll never make it back to the hydrofoil, Jonny.

Hand for tho plor. We 7! Borrow Chu 's spudboat.

Good thinking, Jade.

Keep up the speed, doctor. We're almost out of rifle range.

But not out of cannon range.

- They're gaining on us, doctor. - I'm giving it all I got!

- Wow! That was close! - Hey, what's that?

It's unbelievable!

No! No!

No! No!

He's walking right into the high voltage wire.

Well, that's the end of Chu Sing Ling.

And the end of a horrible experiment, I hope.

If it hadn't been for Jade

we might never have gotten off that island.

- Jade, we're in your debt. - You'll get a bill.

Well, I don't have any money with me, but...

how about this for a down payment?

That's a good lesson for us, Hadji.

When we grow up, everything's gonna be strictly cash.

You said it!
