Transcript
but 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 years...

I will sorely miss

the unshakable support...

you've given

the Royal Hong Kong Police.

So, on behalf

of all Brits...

who have ever carried the shield

in Hong Kong we shall miss you.

We wish you nothing

but happiness...

as you take up your new post

in the United States.

Ladies and gentlemen,

Consul Han.

Thank you, Thomas.

You know Thomas is not going

to make this evening easy.

Excuse me.

Commander Griffin...

I am pleased to be able

to leave you and Hong Kong...

with a special gift tonight.

Earlier this evening,

Detective lnspector Lee...

and his special task force

have once and for all...

crushed the Juntao

criminal organization...

and reclaimed artifacts from

years of China's heritage.

This is the kind of legacy

I dreamt about.

-Hong Kong forever.

-To Hong Kong forever.

Stupid fool! Get out of my way!

Man, are you crazy?

Shoot!

-Clive, what's up, man?

-You're late.

-I'm late?

-Yeah, you're late.

I've been waiting in the back

for over an hour.

-I was in the diner.

-Think I would do this s*** out front?

-I'm gonna get busted.

-You weren't in the diner.

It don't even matter. Let's do this.

What's that, a gun?

Stop it, man.

Let's do it. Come on.

-Don't be late again.

-I ain't gonna be late. What we got?

That's tight.

That's beautiful.

-That's nice. What's that?

-That's C.

-Oh, s***.

-What's the problem?

No problem. I been looking

everything for this s***.

How the hell you find some C ?

The lraqis can't even get this s***.

Where'd you get this from?

It's a hot ticket.

You don't know

how happy you made me.

You got what I want.

Let me get that money.

-Step away from the car.

-Hey, officers.

Put your hands above your heads.

Just do it now.

Ain't no problem here.

Why y'all messing with us for?

All right, take it easy, buddy.

You don't wanna do that.

-No, he don't. He's playing.

-No, I ain't playing.

-Yes, he is, officer.

-I'm not playing!

-Drop the gun!

-He's my cousin. We're just talking.

-Get in your car and leave.

-We can't do that.

I'Il blow his head

all over the parking lot.

-Go away and buy some doughnuts!

-You made him mad.

Let me talk to him.

All right?

-Don't move!

-Everything's cool now.

He down. The gun's down.

Get back in the car and leave.

-Hands in your head!

-Everything's cool, officer.

Do it now!

Didn't I tell you?

Stop it!

I got C in the trunk!

Clive, guess what, man.

I forgot to tell you.

I'm LAPD.

You under arrest.

Excuse me.

-What?

-Telephone. China.

Soo Yung, I love you.

Have a nice day.

Will you be home after school?

I am going to pick you up myself.

-Is there a problem, officer?

-No problem.

Just rush hour.

Security's in place?

You're sure all ofthe exhibits

will be ready by this weekend?

Yes, sir. Your opening remarks

are scheduled for :.

Excuse me, Consul Han.

I'm Warren Russ with the FBl.

This is Agent Whitney.

We need to speak with you

in private.

Excuse me.

I know this is a difficult time

for you, Consul...

but we'Il get

your daughter back.

But will you get her back alive?

We have the best agents

in the world on those streets.

I would like one

of my people to help.

Let me assure you, the FBI

considers this a top priority.

We have plenty of people

on the case.

Mr. Russ, I am not an American.

My daughter is not an American.

-I understand that, sir...

-He's already on the plane.

I trust you will treat him with the same

courtesy as you have shown me.

Ten people

jumped out ofthe trunk.

I started handling all ofthem.

Throwing them everywhere.

Ten two stupid cops

came out of nowhere...

messed everything up,

but then I regrouped.

It ain't in there.

Anyway, I saved their life.

I start runnin',

trying to get the bomb...

-I can't believe you went without me.

-I'Il talk to y'all later, all right?

I'Il 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,

ifyou want a date with me...

you have to wait on the list

like every other woman, OK?

Second of all, I work alone.

I don't need no partner

and ain't never gonna have one.

-Did Kojak have a partner?

-Yeah. The fat guy.

He wasn't never with him.

Did Columbo?

Captain Diel ordered me

to go with you...

you needed bomb squad backup, but once

again you screwed me and yourself.

Look, Johnson,

it's dangerous out there.

It's safer for you

to be behind the desk.

We were supposed to be

on the same team.

This is LAPD, the most hated cops

in the free world.

My own mama ashamed of me.

She tell everybody l'm a drug dealer.

This is a pit stop for me.

I'm on the verge of leaving

you suckers behind.

Actually, you're on the verge

of being suspended. Have a nice day.

Somebody told you

I was being suspended?

Quit playin', girl.

I know you playin'.

Somebody told you

I was being suspended?

This is a problem. That's all I needed.

Some foreigner...

getting his head blown off

and creating an international incident.

What can we do?

He's on the his way.

Call the field office.

Have them send over a rookie.

We'Il have him escort this guy

around a few days...

pretend to follow some leads,

keep him out of our way.

You want to do that

to one ofthe men?

What do you suggest?

Well, as long as we're gonna

humiliate someone...

might as well be LAPD.

Even if I had an extra man who would

want such a bulls*** assignment?

Well, it's a disgrace to me.

A disgrace to my department.

It's a disgrace to...

Dan, l'm sending someone

right over.

Captain, I know you read

the paper, but they lying.

I wouldn't do anything like that.

Theyjust want a story.

Two officers were shot.

One man lost a pinkie.

-But nobody died.

-You destroyed half a block.

-That block was messed up.

-You lost lots of evidence.

We got a little left.

What you did was dangerous

and completely against policy.

And not only that...

you did a good job.

What?

Everyone around here

is so image-conscious.

So afraid oftheir own

goddamn shadow.

It's nice to meet a detective who's

willing to lay it on the line.

Captain,

that's the same way I feel.

Every so often, we have to let

the general public know...

-that we can still blow s*** up.

-That's the only way I work.

So that mean

I ain't getting suspended?

-Are you kidding?

-Don't know why I said that.

I just got a call from the FBl.

The  -year-old daughter

of a Chinese diplomat...

was kidnapped this morning,

and they want you on the case.

-FBI want me?

-That's right.

-Stop lying.

-I don't lie.

-Tell the truth.

-I'm telling the truth.

Thank you, Captain.

Congratulations, Carter.

You are going to the show.

I'Il look out for you

when I reach the top.

-I'Il make you mayor.

-I'd rather you didn't.

Hey, listen up!

lf anybody need me...

I'm gonna be working

a big, big case for the FBl!

Yo. Take care ofthat for me.

I need one ofthose earpieces

immediately, all right?

Hey, how you doin'?

I want the consul's personnel

records cross-checked...

with that new list

we received from lnterpol.

See ifyou can make

any matches or connections.

OK, boys, what have we got?

Have you checked the consul

personnel records yet?

I want to know

who's he been talking with.

OK, come on. Give me the story.

Any demands? Any fingerprints?

Whitney, who's this?

Give me a copy ofthat.

James Carter, FBl.

Warren, he's here

for the special assignment.

I'm Agent in charge Warren Russ.

It's good to have you aboard.

I waited a long time for this.

You guys sure take a long time

to process an application.

Well, Carter, your particular assignment

is considered G-  classified.

Why don't you and I take a walk

and l'Il fill you in?

G-  classified.

That's good.

You don't understand.

This is my dream.

I'm very excited about

working with the FBl.

I'm glad.

Listen, his name is Lee.

And the director considers

this a top priority.

But he's gonna get in my way.

I'm not used to having a partner.

If l'm handling the situation,

l'm gonna have to work alone.

He is the situation.

Must be a misunderstanding.

I was sent down here for

the kidnapping. Little girl?

Forget the little girl.

Your assignment is Lee.

Who is Lee and what kind

of assignment is that?

Lee is a foreign detective

and a friend ofthe consul's.

It's yourjob to keep him out

of sight and away from danger.

You want me to baby-sit,

but I don't do that.

I came down here

for the big assignment.

This is an FBI operation and I don't

need any help from LAPD...

or some Chun-King cop.

You got it?

Whoa. Hold it.

Why not use your men

for this top priority case?

What am I supposed to do,

take him to the zoo?

I don't give a damn. I don't want to

see him or you till this is resolved.

His plane arrives in one hour.

We want to make a good impression.

It's his first trip to America.

This is bulls***!

Please 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 s***!

First, I get a bulls*** assignment,

now, Mr. Rice-a-Roni...

don't even speak American.

Come on. My ride's over here.

Put your bag in the back.

Put your bag in the back!

You put your own s***

in the back!

I am not a skycap.

I'm FBl, you understand?

What the hell you think this is?

Captain, I don't think

this is funny.

No, l'm serious, Captain.

Tell the FBI you made a mistake.

I can't do that.

I'm sure that you and Mr. Lee

will have a nice time together.

You better call the FBI or

I drop his ass at Panda Express.

Drop this case, you're suspended

for two months without pay.

You can forget about

being mayor then.

Congratulations, Carter.

Looks like you finally

got yourself a partner.

One little pinkie get blowed off

and everybody trippin'.

Chinese consul?

That's one place you can't go.

I ain't getting fired.

You gonna pay my bills?

That's the little girl?

Say something.

Y'all think this is real funny.

Give Carter

the big G-  classified case.

Gonna show the FBI they don't

know who they are playing with.

I'Il solve this case myself.

That's right.

But I wanna show you something

first. Look familiar?

Just like home, ain't it?

I ain't never been to China,

but it probably look like this.

Get your star maps!

Look, John Wayne.

You know John Wayne?

Yeah, man.

Hang out with the Duke.

I'Il be right back. You might see

one ofyour cousins here.

Right here!

Star maps!

You got the address

to Michael Jackson's house?

You can't come around myjob.

That's harassment.

I'm just checking up on you.

I'm fully legit now.

I'm selling star maps.

Legit my ass.

You and your Asian gang friends

know about a kidnapping?

I don't know nothing.

Give me one ofthem star maps...

for $  you understand

what l'm saying?

Don't know nothin'

about no kidnapping...

but this dude's buying firearms,

explosives, and people...

-Iike he's gonna start a war.

-What's his name?

-For $  I don't know his name.

-You better tell me something.

-I don't know nothing for $.

-Stucky, you don't...

I didn't tell you nothing!

Didn't I tell you

to wait for me?

What the hell you doing

on this bus?

Think l'm playing with you?

I ain't playing with you.

Sit down.

All right.

It's OK.

It's all right. FBl.

Take a picture.

Wait a minute.

What?

Get out of my way!

FBl. Stop this bus.

Hey, look.

Hey, kids, get back in here.

Sit down.

Stop! FBl!

I need this motorcycle.

-No way, man.

-Get off!

Get out ofthe car!

Get out ofthe car now!

Where you think you're going?

Didn't I say to stay by the Duke?

-What do you think you're doing?

-Mind your own business.

Hey. What you doing?

You thought

I was gonna shoot you?

What's happening here?

Put the gun down.

I ain't playing with you!

-Think l'm playing with you?

-Don't move!

Drop your guns.

-Look. FBl.

-I'm policeman.

I'm just showing him

to take a gun from a suspect.

All of a sudden

you speaking English?

-A little.

-My ass. You lied to me.

I didn't say I didn't.

You assumed so.

Assume I kick you little

Beijing ass right now.

I know you know

that tricky s***.

I'm not responsible

for your assumptions.

You full of s***,

you understand that?

Not being able to speak

is not the same as not speaking.

You seem as ifyou like to talk.

I let people talk

who like to talk.

It makes easier to find out

how full of s*** they are.

What the hell did you just say?

I like people to talk...

-So l'm the one full of s***?

-We both full of s***.

You full of s***.

I'm gonna 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,

l'm the emperor, l'm the king.

I'm Michael Jackson, you Tito.

Your ass belong to me.

Why would they not want my help?

'Cause 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.

The girl don't like you.

Nobody likes you.

You came all the way

over here for nothing.

You ain't gonna be...

Beach Boys.

Oh, hell, no.

You didn't just touch

my goddamn radio.

The Beach Boys are

great American music.

The Beach Boys will get you

a great ass-whoopin'.

Don't ever touch

a black man's radio, boy.

You can do that in China but you'Il get

your ass killed out here.

Let me show you real music.

That's real music.

You hear that?

Now 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.

Very serious police work.

Just watch me handle my business

and patrol this place.

I want to help with

the investigation. This is my case.

Your case?

Look, you can back me up.

When we get in here, follow

my lead and do what I do.

What's up, my ni**er?

-Is this weed?

-What?

You got a prescription for this?

Where is it?

Where is it?

Where?

-I should take your ass to jail.

-For what?

-Look at this!

-That's nothing but a cigarette.

-This ciga-weed!

-Well, it look like cigarette.

-You better have glaucoma.

-I do.

What's up, my ni**er?

Check that, baby.

What's happening, Carter?

Put the guns down.

M.C.Hammer there,

put the goddamn gun down.

I got some questions,

and I need some answers.

-Put'em down.

-Where the girl?

-What girl?

-The little girl.

-What little girl?

-The Chinese girl.

I don't know nothin'

about no Chinese girl.

I'Il take your asses in

if I don't get answers.

-Carter, put the gun down.

-Don't act like you know me.

I see what's going on here.

You trying to play me like a fool.

Lee, go outside real quick. It's gonna

get a little dangerous in here.

-I may have quest...

-Lee, go and wait by the bar.

-I'Il take care of everything.

-You sure?

I'm sure.

Go on now.

Think l'm playing?

Hurry up!

Don't come in my business

scaring me like that.

I was just playing.

Man, give me a hug.

Just schooling the rookie,

showing him the ropes.

Why you didn't come

to church Sunday?

I had some things

to take care of.

But I made the night service.

Come here,

I wanna holler at you.

Who's this guy buying up

these explosives and weapons?

I don't know

nothing about that.

Luke, I know what you do.

The only reason why

I ain't busted your ass...

'cause you my cousin,

and it'd kill Aunt Bootsy.

-Why you put Aunt Bootsy in this?

-I ain't playing.

I know she got a bad heart,

but I will bust your ass.

Tell me something.

The word down in Chinatown is

there's this new dude in town.

Bad-ass dude outta Hong Kong

buying up every goddamn thing.

-What's his name?

-Don't know.

-He ain't buying s*** from me.

-You don't know his name?

Don't nobody know his name.

What's up, my ni**er?

What did you just say?

What's up, my ni**er?

Come here!

You better watch your mouth!

-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 girl

l'm talking about.

Man, you better take

your goddamn hands off my suit.

Your mama bought me

this suit for Christmas.

I'Il see you Thanksgiving.

Appreciate it.

Get your big

Happy-Meal ass over.

Get over in the corner!

l'm still the law around here!

Next time I come here,

y'all better clean this up!

And brush your teeth!

Let's go.

-What are we doing here?

-I'm getting something to eat.

You want anything,

like a Cup O'Noodles?

Stop wasting my time.

I made a promise to Soo Yung.

You're right.

I have been wasting your time.

I'm sorry. Just let me

go get something to eat.

When I come back out, l'Il take

you wherever you want to go.

Shake on it?

What are you doing?

You ain't the only one

with quick hands, are you?

I'Il be right back.

I got you a beef-and-bean burrito.

We have a taxicab approaching.

A man stepping out. Asian.

We've got someone approaching the gate.

Dropped off by a cab.

-Tell them to intercept.

-Intercept.

We will intercept.

-Can I help you?

-Yes. I must see the consul.

-About what?

-Please, it's very important.

Why don't you tell us why

you need to see the consul?

We'Il tell you

whether it is important.

Do you have identification?

-It's about his daughter Soo Yung.

-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 gonna kill them.

-Is everything all right?

You'Il be safer

on the second floor.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry about this.

He went over.

Stay away from the window, please.

Right here.

Get down! Now!

Don't move!

I think there has been

a misunderstanding.

It's all right. It's OK.

It's him. The guy from China.

-What?

-Come in, please.

Mr. Russ, I would like you

to meet Detective lnspector Lee.

Excuse me very much.

Your gun.

Where the hell is Carter?

Then I gotta put up with this.

See a little Asian dude

about this height...

with a steering wheel

on his arm?

Go screw yourself.

-What you say?

-I said go screw yourself.

You take your sensitive ass

up there and let me in!

Don't make me get up

out ofthis truck!

Man, when I get up in here,

l'm slapping somebody.

What happened, Carter?

I ain't supposed to be

jumping 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 ourjob.

Me and Lee are taking care

ofthe situation.

We have everything

under control.

We'Il get your daughter back

safe and sound.

He is very passionate

about finding your daughter.

Well, I owe you my gratitude.

We wanted Detective Lee to have

one of our best men by his side.

Maybe this is a good time to tell him

the details of my assignment.

Can I speak to you

for a moment?

You wanna speak to me?

For a moment? ln private?

Oh, I see!

This must be G-  classified.

FBl-type stuff.

Let me call my captain and

let him know what's going on.

We'Il talk in a second.

When a G-  comes around.

-Who's this? Hello?

-Am I speaking with FBl?

-Give me the phone.

-Yeah, this is the FBl.

-You are FBl?

-Yeah, this is the FBl.

Ifyou want the gnrl back alnve,

lnsten and do not talk.

OK, l'm listening.

Let me get a pen.

All right. Cool.

The drop will be made tonight.



The amount will be $  million.

Fifty million dollars? Who you think

you kidnapped, Chelsea Clinton?

Keep him talking.

-In used currency.

Nothnng bngger than a.

All right. Cool.

Fifty million. No problem.

I want   million in   s...

Twenty million in  s.

Twenty million in  s...

-Twenty million in  s.

-And   mnllnon nn   s.

And   million in   s.

You want any fries with that?

What is your name?

You called us.

Why you want to know my name?

I just want to be able to tell

the consul who's responsible...

for his daughter's death

because he talks too much.

All right, hold up. Calm down.

I'm trying to hook you up.

I'm on your side.

You will receive instruction

for the drop...

half an hour before

it is to be made.

If it is successful,

the girl will live.

I'm gonna make sure

you get the money...

and we can spend it together

when you do...

'cause I don't even

really work for them.

We got it.

South Broadway. Downtown.

Team one, proceed down

to th and Broadway.

Team two, I want you around

the back on th and Main.

Set up a perimeter.

Take your team and cover the building

all the way 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's Carter?

Please, listen to me.

You may be very competent

but the mere fact...

that you know this girl

compromises yourjudgment.

Sir, ifyou were asking

for $  million...

would you be in a place

like that?

Get this clown away from me.

Take a hike!

-Why were you hiding?

-What you talking about?

-You were hiding.

-I bent down to tie my shoe.

Sir, the area is secured.

-Room's empty.

-Damn it!

-Everybody pull back!

-Goddamn!

Get some paramedics

down here now!

Evacuate the building right away!

Get fire crews here!

We got an explosion

at th and Broadway.

That ain't far enough, man!

I ain't Kareen Abdul-Jabbar!

Push it down some more!

Carter, don't come any... stop!

What the hell...

I think I done broke my s***.

Who was that you was chasing?

His name is Sang from Hong Kong.

Because ofyou he got away.

Why you ain't tell me

about the bridge?

-I did.

-No, you didn't.

I said stop.

I don't understand

what you be saying.

What?

You see what l'm saying?

-What's this in your hand?

-He dropped it.

Oh, s***.

Come on.

-Where are we going?

-I messed up my suit.

Fifteen seconds.

Make a decision.

Oh, s***!

Did I come at a bad time?

I got bad news for you, Johnson.

We're all dead.

I was distracted, sir.

Distractions can occur

in the field.

That's why we call

this practice.

Ifyou can't handle the pressure,

then quit.

Man, give her a break.

Don't worry about him.

How you doing, girl?

Give me some love.

-Why are you tormenting me?

-That any way to treat an old friend?

I came to see how you was doing,

and I need some help.

Help?

I know that you have

strong feelings for me...

but we gotta put that aside. It's

a little girl's life at stake here.

Since when do you care about

anybody but yourself?

Please, just take a look at this.

We found this on a kidnapper.

Tell me what this is.

You want me to work with you?

I don't have time for this.

I got my own s*** to deal with.

-Who are you?

-Sorry we got you in trouble.

Yeah, he's sorry. Tell me

something about this I don't know.

A remote. Could be nitro cap,

could be cross-delayed...

definitely not homemade,

definitely not American.

I could open up a garage door,

or blow up some C.

C ?

Yeah, C.

This means so much to me.

Hey, and l'm sorry about

spreading all those rumors...

on Christmas about us

sleeping together.

-What?

-He's just joking.

Hey, Bobby, what's up, man?

-I need to see Clive Cod.

-No way, Carter.

It's lights out.

You want me to lose myjob?

I got you this damn job.

You better let me in here.

Can't do it.

Didn't I turn my back when

you bought that bag ofweed?

I was splitting it with you.

Didn't I give you the bigger half?

Do me this favor.

S***. You got five minutes.

Hey, Cod.

Your two brothers

-You think l'm stupid?

-Stupid enough to get busted.

-You want my fingerprints, to frame me.

Why would I do something like that?

Think I would try tricking you again?

I don't have to frame you. You'Il do

That ain't

-Very good.

-Camel's hump.

-What?

-Camel's hump.

but it's kinda good, though.

We still waiting?

How we gonna get Juntao?

How we know he exists?

Ain't nobody seen him.

I know. He killed my partner.

I'm sorry about that, man.

That's why I have no partner.

I learned that from my daddy.

-Your daddy was a policeman?

-Fifteen years LAPD.

-My father was also a policeman.

-Your daddy was a cop?

Not a cop, an officer.

A legend all over Hong Kong.

My daddy a legend, too.

All over America.

My daddy once arrested   people

in one night by himself.

My daddy arrested   by himself.

My daddy saved five crackheads from

a burning building by himself.

My daddy once caught a bullet

with his bare hands.

My daddy'Il kick your daddy's ass

all the way from here to China...

or Japan or wherever you from.

All up that Great Wall, too.

-Don't talk about my father.

-Don't talk about my daddy.

-Hey, that your boy?

-Yes, let's go.

I better go in first.

Ain't nobody gonna recognize me.

I'Il wait five minutes.

Hey, you take my ID.

If anything go wrong,

you bust in like you're LAPD.

This won't work.

I'm not '.

Yes, it will work.

It's all about attitude.

Flip it open, flip it closed.

Do it fast. Open, close. Fast.

You'Il get it. Look.

Take this.

Hey, man, act like

you're from out oftown.

-I am from out oftown.

-Don't act like a cop. Like a tourist.

-Don't be so obvious. All right.

-OK, no problem.

-How you doing?

-For one?

No, for two. I'm here for a meeting

with Mr. Juntao.

I'm sorry.

I don't know Mr. Juntao.

Maybe you don't understand.

I'm Mr. Juntao's legal advisor.

He got into some s*** again.

I'm a very busy man.

I ain't got time

to be coming down here.

My wife wants me to come home,

baby's s****ing all over.

Would you please get Mr. Juntao?

But I have already told you

I don't know...

You think I came here for nothing?

You gonna give me gas money?

Would you please go tell

Mr. Juntao to get his ass here?

Thank you.

Can I sit here?

Right here? Thank you.

-Y'all got any eel?

-Sure.

How's your camel hump?

Excuse me?

Where is Roscoe's

Chicken and Waffles?

This way?

I'm sorry.

I'm from out oftown.

-Thank you.

-Welcome.

What's that?

No, wait.

Get the girl out of here.

Make sure those two don't leave.

-Juntao will see you.

-It's about time.

Stop it!

Let me go!

This is tight.

Ain't nothing like downstairs.

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...

'cause he told me

to come down here...

'cause l'm his half-brother

from Beijing.

Me and him got the same mama.

I'm Blackinese.

We all the same. Whoa.

Wait a minute.

OK, you gonna kill me?

OK, put the gun down,

fight like a man.

Fight me like a man. S***!

Anybody can shoot somebody.

That's what l'm talking about.

Back. Give me some room.

You don't know who you messing with.

I'm gonna knock that yellow...

-Which one ofy'all kicked me?

-Me.

OK. All right.

Hold on. Let's talk about this.

Let's talk about this, man.

No, no. What that mean?

This is a misunderstanding.

Come on, let's pray about this.

-FBl, huh?

-No, I ain't FBl.

I'm a security guard,

I work at the mall.

Now wipe yourself off.

You're bleeding.

Oh, hell no. He just playing.

He ain't mean that.

He meant cut me loose.

Let me go.

LAPD.

Watch out!

Behind you.

Freeze!

We kicked y'all ass.

All y'all.

Y'all got your ass kicked.

I'm gonna kill your ass.

Lee! Over here, man!

Is that my gun?

-It is my gun.

-Let's go.

Why you gotta drop

the goddamn badge?

Then you threw the gun

out ofthe window.

Come on, this way.

I got everything under control.

Don't worry about nothing.

Jesus, Mary and Joseph!

It's cool.

Why am I not surprised

to find you here, Carter?

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'Il start from the top.

We were making the drop.

Han was about to get her back...

and you two screwed it up.

What you talking about?

Didn't you hear what Lee said?

Mr. Lee is on his way

to Hong Kong.

Now get out of here...

before I file obstruction charges

against you.

We was about to solve the case.

All we need to do...

You're no longer

on this assignment, Carter.

Case closed.

-Consul Han!

-Sorry, sir.

It was all my fault.

Lee would never do anything to

jeopardize your daughter's life.

He loves your daughter.

It's a little too late

for apologies.

Consul... you have a call.

We're ready.

Pick it up.

The ransom is now   million.

I will call with instructions.

You deliver the money or pick up

the body ofyour daughter.

Please. You must understand.

What happened tonight was not...

Soo Yung, please tell them

I wnll do whatever...

Sorry, man.

Be sorry for Soo Yung.

No hard leads.

None.

Listen, we're doing

all we can here, all right?

Tracing everything that's coming

into this compound.

Excuse me, Consul.

You have a guest.

Jack, let me get back to you.

I'm sorry, my friend.

I couldn't stand by

and do nothing.

Hey! What's up, baby?

Man, you got guts calling me.

I'm gonna hang up.

Hey, wait a minute.

Don't hang up.

You know what? You was right

about me.

I'm sorry.

-Are you in drugs?

-You was rnght.

I was egotistic.

I was inconsiderate.

I was self-centered.

I ain't used to working

with partners...

but it ain't about me.

It's about the little girl.

She gonna die without our help.

You understand what l'm saynng?

Not yet,

but keep talking.

I think something big going down

tonight, all right?

I need to find out

where the consul's gonna be.

You thnnkyou can help me?

-I'Il see what I can do.

-No. I don't need you to see.

I need you to do it.

Can you do it?

OK, Carter.

One other thing.

What color panties you got on?

Consul Han, I wantyou to go

to the Chnnese expo as you planned.

Have the money

nn the upstanrs control room.

Be sure to make

no more mnstakes.

I understand that, but I want

to speak with my daughter!

Excuse me, miss.

Who's the captain on this plane?

Look, it don't even matter.

You need to go up there...

tell the captain we got

a problem on the left side.

Something wrong with the engine.

You need a new alternator.

My supervisor said, 'Willy, go on

down there and fix that plane.

Don't let it leave

till I come down there.'

I suggest you tell

the proper authorities...

not to move this plane before

the FAA come here... Go on!

-What are you doing here?

-Get your ass up. We got work to do.

-Go away. I've disgraced myself.

-Lee, what about the little girl?

Leave me alone. A man like you

could never understand.

-A man like me?

-Devoted only to yourself.

You're ashamed of being an officer.

You dishonor your father's name.

You don't know anything

about my father.

-You say your father is a legend.

-My father was a legend.

He was killed making a routine

traffic stop in daylight...

by some punk

who didn't want no ticket...

when his partner was to get out of

the car and back him up, he didn't.

My father was as devoted as you,

and now he's dead.

For a traffic ticker and some punk?

What's the honor in that?

You believe your father

wasted his life, died for nothing?

Prove me wrong.

For   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 lnspector Lee

help me raid...

every known asset

of Juntao's operation.

We confiscated millions

in weapons and cash...

and a collection of Chinese art

unsurpassed in the world.

Then Juntao disappeared.

No witnesses.

Do you really think

he'Il kill the girl?

My advice to you is...

pay the money.

Consul, l'm going upstairs

to make the drop.

I want you to remain calm

as if nothing's wrong...

and don't leave Agent Whitney's

side even for a moment.

I understand.

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.

I'm Consul Han.

On behalf ofthe People's Republic

of China, thank you for coming.

I am pleased to present. years

of Chinese history and heritage...

a collection which, until recently,

was thought to be lost forever.

This some nice s***.

That Buddha'd go good

in my bathroom.

This is the history

of my country...

priceless pieces

of Chinese culture.

If anything gets damaged...

Ain't nothing gonna happen

to none ofthis stuff.

And now we can pass them on

to our children.

Pardon me.

I seen that guy

at the Chinese restaurant.

Consul Han has been fighting flu

for the past few days...

so perhaps I should finish

what he started.

The first thing we gotta do

is clear out this riffraff.

If anybody stay behind,

they got something to lose.

I'Il be right back.

...future between

our two countries.

The more we see

the differences...

-Excuse me, ladies and gentlemen.

-Goddamn it.

-I'm Detective Carter from the LAPD.

-Russ, we got Carter down here.

-What the hell's going on?

-We have just received...

a threat on the building.

Please exit the building...

as soon as possible,

and please do not panic.

Didn't you hear what I said?

Get your s*** and go out!

There's a bomb in the building!

I don't believe this.

Agents, hold your positions!

Everybody take care,

but hold your positions.

Get your old ass

out the building!

Woman, the exit over there.

Gonna get your head blowed off!

Titty, titty...

Get them titties outta here.

Will somebody grab Carter?

Consul Han, six blocks of C are wired

to your daughter in a car outside.

Before the changeover,

most ofthis exhibition...

was in the hands of a single

private collector.

Me.

I worked most of my life

to acquire and catalog...

these priceless pieces

that you see before you.

And then, in one fell swoop,

it was taken away 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 just gonna tell you

you was in a read zone.

You didn't know I could do that.

Put your hands up!

I ain't gonna kill you this time.

I'm just gonna kick your ass!

You tell your friends about me.

Hey, how you doing?

We've been looking for you.

I'm Detective Carter, LAPD.

Everything is OK now.

I'Il take you to your daddy.

And first thing l'm gonna do

is take this vest offyou.

-Don't touch it!

-It'Il be safer ifwe take it off.

No. I heard them say

it will explode.

I think it'Il be safer

ifwe leave it on. Don't move.

Where are you?

-Don't move!

-Hold your positions, goddamn it!

Do not draw your weapons.

Ladies and gentlemen...

I think we'Il call that

an evening.

Thank you and good night.

I got something for you!

Got something you want.

I got your bomb right here.

Want to blow something up?

Come on.

Push the button. Come on.

-Push the button.

-What are you doing?

Just 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.

You got everybody excited about

something being blowed up...

and look at your

little punk British ass.

Push the button!

-Deal with it, please.

-Where you going?

Cover the consul!

It's OK. She's a professional.

You must take the vest off.

Just give me a second.

There's a trigger on this vest.

It'Il blow if I take it off.

Haven't you done this before?

It's a little different

in the practice room.

-Everybody take cover.

-We need more men down here.

Say again. Dan, do you read...

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 if off.

Get rid of it.

-She OK?

-Yes.

I know that ain't the bomb.

Take that bomb away from me!

Take the bomb outside.

-Take it over to Juntao.

-Go that way, I go that way.

Don't shoot!

Where are you going?

-Meet me on the roof.

-Roger.

Don't move, man!

I been looking for your

sweet-and-sour chicken ass.

Your boys ain't here now.

You all alone.

-I kill him.

-Go ahead.

I don't even like him.

Put your gun down.

Fight like a man.

-What you say?

-Fight like a man.

Fight like a man?

-I was just being polite.

Next time,

I'm sorry.

Thank you.

-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.

I think you should come with me.

Get on the plane when

you get offwork. You fly for free.

I'm trying to expand my horizons.

Travel a little bit.

I'm through with y'all, man.

I'm going on vacation.

Now, hold on there.

We were just coming by...

to tell you what a great job

you did yesterday.

And when you come back...

there's gonna be

an FBI badge waiting for you.

You serious?

Come on, don't be playing.

I don't know what to say.

It's like a dream come true.

I got an idea, though.

Why don't y'all

and shove it up your ass?

All up your ass. I'm LAPD.

B***h.

You assumed I didn't.

Man, people tell me s***.

What's wrong with you?

My daddy once caught...

My daddy one caught a bullet

No bulls***.

What's the honor in that?

You believe your father

They must not...

You're right, man.

Let's go tell them.

Anything goes wrong, you bust

He cannot speak English.

Man, this is cool.

You need some lunch?

I got it before, Jackie.

Now you know

how difficult I am.

Look at Jackie.
