What is this?

Don't look at my brother,

I'm talking to you.

You're making a big mistake, little boy.

That's OK, you f***ing racist sh*t.

Take him home, Alby.

Hey! I'm alright, I'm alright.

Take him home. Take Ghandi home.

Take this chink-lover home.

Go ahead.

Go ahead, put him to bed.

Good night, Ghandi...

They're not "people".

Give me a beer, alright.

Hey, you, uhm...you're still working on

those egg rolls? I'm hungry, let's go!

What's the matter with you? Why do

you fight with friends over nothing?

- He ain't my friend.

- Well, he's my friend.

He just gets me mad with

all that sh*t about the Chinese.

- What do you mean?

- It gets on my nerves.

Since when are you so

sensitive about the Chinese, eh?

I ain't, it just bothers me, alright.

- Yeah, why's that?

- It just does.

You're not answering my question.

What do you want from me, Alby? I'm sick

and tired of his sh*t, he's a f***ing a**hole.

What's wrong with you?

These are our friends.

You were born in this

neighbourhood. Don't forget that.

Come on, huh?

What are you gonna

do about the store?

Let me worry about that.

You've got people out there.

We're closed.

It's the Uncle.

Enrico, I've prepared a

twelve course meal.

Marvelous.

- I love it.

- You like it?

How do they make it?

Ah, if I told you,

you would never eat it...

Why don't you get us some drinks.

I'll get you a waiter.

No, you take care of this.

- It's beautiful.

- Just feel free.

Like family tonight, alright?

Enjoy it.

I'm so glad you are here to join us.

Veal and... J&B.

Where's your cousin?

I don't know.

Well, you should.

He's your responsibility.

Look, what we want is peace

in the neighbourhood again...

...we can't have it

as long as he's alive.

We want you to find him.

Enrico...

There's an old custom in China.

It's called ganbei.

Ah, look at that guy.

He can really drink, huh?

Hey, a**hole.

Let's go see my cousin.

The Italians saw them

by Christie street.

They followed a block and then shot 'em

and left 'em in the middle of the lot.

Two of the guys followed

and brought them back.

You should've helped me. We could've

settled our differences afterwards.

I warned you not to cross the Uncles.

What did you expect?

I expect that my cousin

will fight by my side, man.

I expected you to help me.

You knew I couldn't.

No, I didn't.

I didn't wanna fight the whole war, man.

I just wanted a piece of the action.

We're just poor Chinese kids.

We got nobody to help us.

You gotta get out of here.

We'll go back to Hong-Kong.

The Unlce will never forgive you.

Doesn't matter.

You know, in our people tradition,

I had to just die in here.

It's close, the guy on top

ain't Chinese no more...

Tsu-Shin!

Did you have any problems getting out?

- Nah.

How do you say "I love you" in Italian?

Ti amo...

Ti amo.

How do you say it in Chinese?

Ngoh oi neih.

Ngoh oi neih...

Hey, what are you

guys doing over here?

Nothing, we're

just hanging out.

Well hang out someplace else.

Let's go, take a hike.

Come on. What are you, deaf?

Let's go, move it.

Let's go!

Hey.

Chinatown's this way.

You're f***ing crazy!

What's your problem?

You don't listen!

Come on!

Mom, I'm gonna go. You want anything?

- No.

Where's Tony?

I don't know, he went out.

- He say when he'll be back?

- No, he didn't say.

This kid's unbelievable.

Look, when he comes back, tell him

I want him downstairs right away.

What's the matter with you?

Cause all week I'm asking him to

help me set up and he disappears.

Will you leave him alone,

he's only a baby.

That's no excuse, ma.

Alright, I'm gonna go.

You gonna come down later?

Yeah sure.

I'll see you at the festa.

And be careful.

- What the f*** do you want?

- I wanna see your brother.

Dude, f*** off!

Come on!

Alberto...

Oh, Alby...

Alberto!

Dio mio!

No!!!

Alberto! Dio mio!

Son of a b*tch!

Come on!

Signora, my condolences.

If there's anything I can

do for you... Anything at all.

Can you give me back my son?

Can you bring back my Alberto?

Look at this motherf***er...

Where's Tony?

I don't know.

Antonio!

Figlio mio!

Alberto mio!

Come on...

Look, we know who they are and we're

gonna f***ing kill 'em! - They are dead!

Everything will be taken care of.

We know who did it.

What are you gonna do, huh?

Kill more people?

Alby's in there because nobody gives a

sh*t about blowing somebody's brains out!

You keep quiet!

No! I wanna know how you're gonna

bring my brother back by...

...slashing on somebody's

f***ing throat.

You f***ing sh*t!

You f***ing murder!

That's enough!

You're a liar, aren't you?!

Motherf***er!!

That's enough, I said!

Take him out of here now!

Move! Come on!

Your brother is on his way.

You ready?

Tyan!

Tyan!

Tyan!

- Get away from him! - No!

Tyan...

I love him, Yung.

Just come with me.

We're going back to Hong-Kong.

No...

You're no longer Chinese, anyway.

Come on, let's get outta here.

Someone! Help!
