I know. What can I do?

I don't know!

You could act like you care.

Get over it!

Stop feeling sorry for yourself!

JIMMY:

I'm sorry. Billy, wait up.

I said wait a second!

Satori's gone!

We can't bring her back.

She should have told us

about the dragon.

She dumped it on us as usual.

How could she know

this would happen?

She did the best she could.

She was the only family we had.

Nobody would take care of us

after Dad died.

What have I been doing?

We need a plan!

No! No more plans!

You're always planning,

and I'm sick of it!

Don't fly off the handle!

This isn't some tournament!

We have to think about this.

What matters now

is that we work together.

We ain't got nobody else.

That's how Satori would want it.

You look like hell.

Look who's talking, Ug Lee.

Get it straight:

You're Ug Lee; I'm Home Lee.

Oh, OK.

JIMMY:
Even if Satori's book

burned in the fire,

it probably

wouldn't work anyway.

BILLY:
You're such a downer.

BILLY:
So what's the deal?

JIMMY:
This is what we'll do.

We have eight hours of daylight.

We'll be safe while the cops

are on the streets.

That gives us time to get-

- Don't you guys own a watch?

- Yeah, I own a watch.

It's time to skin you guys,

compliments of Koga Shuko.

- Oh!

- Ow!

Jimbo?

Billy?

Look out!

Come on! Ha ha ha!

BILLY:
Let's go!

Hey, punks, special delivery!

Airmail!

Never seen a postman

move that fast.

Get them out!

Come on out of there!

Come on out of there!

Let's swim.

In that sludge? We'll melt.

That's liquid death, man.

Open the door!

Ah, sweet!

JIMMY:

Where you going on that?

- Aw, man, look at this baby.

- You can't even start it!

Oh, yeah? Watch this.

Whoa!

Break the door down!

I can see you.

- No, you can't.

- Aah!

Come here. Cry on my shoulder.

- Quit screwing around.

- Better get us out of here.

Woo!

- Yeah!

- Yes!

I think it worked.

Whoa!

Whoa!

Faster!

...on the corner

of Sunset and Vine.

Now for the highlight

of your Hollywood river tour,

we're now approaching the world

famous Mann's Chinese Theatre!

BILLY:
I think we lost one.

This river's flammable!

We're cooked!

Whoa!

Yeah, come on, Jimmy!

Send in the divers

for the medallion.

- Blech!

- Yuck!

This water's gross.

Needs a seat and lid over it.

If it gets in your mouth,

you get diarrhea

and your hair falls out.

I'll bet those stooges

think we're dead.

Exactly. It's time

to take the fight to Shuko.

The Hollywood river caught fire

once again today.

When the police went

to investigate,

they were attacked in

broad daylight by gang members.

Here we see footage

from our cop-cams,

as gangs attacked the police,

chanting, "The truce is over."

This is the first daylight

gang attack in seven years.

Let's go now live

to police headquarters.

Chief Delario, Sam Gilespi,

102 News.

Why aggravate the gangs?

What will you do?

They have rights, too.

GILESPl:
Maybe the gang members

are misunderstood.

Maybe they need a hug.

GILESPl:
Why did gangs

break the truce?

You realize that it's

23 minutes till sundown?

I'm gone.

GILESPl:
That's a wrap.

OK, how hard can it be to

pull my dragon from the river?

I mean, it's down there!

The river's really deep.

Damn kids!

Huey, Lewis, any news?

- Huh?

- Huh?

I just want total domination

of one major American city!

Is that too much to ask for?

Huh?

It's a bad career move, boys.

Bad career move.

Time for plan B.

He who cannot adapt

shall perish.

Get out of here. You disgust me!

Now! Leave!

Except for you.

Lash. You stay.

No comment.

He wants to meet?

When?

BILLY:
We can't take Shuko

by ourselves. We need help.

JIMMY:
The Power Corp?

I can't believe

you'd ask Marian for help.

BILLY:
We'll go to the police.

They'll believe

this medallion thing.

"You see, Officer,

we've got this magic medallion.

"This 600-pound mutant,

a chick with a whip...

"and this rich guy

want to waste us. Send help."

I don't think so.

The way to stop Shuko is to get

his half of the medallion.

For that, we need help.

JIMMY:
I won't ask Marian.

- Fine. Then I'll ask her.

- Ask her.

- I'm gonna.

- Ask her.

Don't you want to stop Shuko?

This is it.

Yeah, you're right. For once.

Open up.

Here comes another airplane.

No more spinach! Ugh!

Abobo-ls that French?

I'm gonna barf.

Damn it! Hit the generator!

I got it!

Ahh...

Now for the last time,

why is Shuko uniting them?

I told you everything l-

He used you!

Why are you protecting him?

I need to get into

Shuko's headquarters, OK?

What's he got up there?

Heat sensors?

Infrared? What? What?

Infra what?

- Don't act dumb!

- I'm not acting!

Well... maybe another week

of my special spinach diet...

will help you to remember.

Spinach is supposed to be

very good for you.

Lock him up.

OK, so where is it?

- It's right there.

- Right where?

Right there.

See, I told you I could find it.

- OK, let's go.

- We're going.

- OK.

- OK.

BILLY:
Hope they

have a bathroom.

JIMMY:
You're weird.

Wait a second! It says,

"Please use other door."

They want you to think

it's the other door.

That's what

they wanted us to think?

BILLY:
Got a match?

"Caution, watch your step."

Watch your step?

Great. Power Corp midgets.

You need some help?

Why didn't you use the stairs?

"Please use other door."

BILLY:
What's with the kids?

New recruits?

MARIAN:
It's the only safe place

for them.

None of them have homes.

JIMMY:
They're not

the only ones.

I saw the theater.

Actually,

it's where we caught Abobo.

BILLY:
Abobo?

JIMMY:
I don't remember

Abobo being there.

No, you wouldn't.

He's as big as a house.

Shuko did some sort

of experiment on him.

He looks like

the Stay-Puff marshmallow man.

MARIAN:

Let me get this straight.

Shuko can hot-wire

people's bodies,

and now he wants your half

of this magic medallion?

JIMMY:
In a nutshell.

We don't have much time.

BILLY:
Yeah.

MARIAN:
Why?

Shuko thinks you're dead.

We have the element of surprise.

So prove it.

Make it do something.

We would, Marian, but we're

not sure how it works... yet.

Tried clicking

your heels together?

BILLY:
I get it. I got it.

We've never tried this

at the same time.

- Billy-

- Let's try it together.

- It's the Double Dragon.

- We look like double dorks.

Just try it.

Come on.

Ha ha!

OK.

OK, forget this stupid thing.

Shuko killed Satori.

Will you help or not?

Welcome to the Power Corp.

Don't be an oxygen hog.

Get lost.

I just got on this one.

- Hurry up!

- Airhead.

Hello,

and welcome to the Shuko Center,

where everything and anything

is available for a price.

Information booths are located

on every floor,

so please feel free to use us.

Loitering is

strictly prohibited,

and any...

Hey!

Hey, you kids,

get out of here!

We need some help here now!

MARIAN:
Our skaters

should have security occupied.

Come on. Let's go.

JIMMY:
So what's the plan?

OK, the plan is that I have

loaded Abobo's Gangnet link...

with false information...

so it seems like
