Let me see.

Nope, no ring.

Well if it's just a fling,

go all out!

Sophie, don't listen to Lucy.

She's a bad influence.

Get in there!

Move it! Go back!

That's what you get for stuffing

your face all the time.

Sophie, what's going on?

Why are you breathing so hard?

This ride is crazy,

and it won't stop.

Not this way!

Slow down, I'm dyin' here.

- Get on top of me!

- What, on top of you?

Yeah, Sophie! Get some!

Ow! Take it easy!

Sophie, stop messing around.

Where are you?

I'm on top.

Sophie, so wild! I bow to you!

It's not what you think.

Such dirty minds.

We're being chased.

What did you say?

Where are they?

They were just here!

Let's get down.

Today has been a blast!

We jumped down off the building!

- Sorry, gotta run.

- I'm not finished!

We have to get them!

Bo, meet us at the safe house.

Hurry P!

Over there!

Did you find them?

What about you?

Nothing over here.

Did you look carefully?

We've looked everywhere.

Boss,

we have the diamond.

But there's a problem.

It's a bit complicated.

You know how I hate

to be disappointed.

In other words,

Gao got away with the diamond,

but he can't open it?

You sure messed up, Field Agent.

What do we with this girl?

Unfortunately, she's become the key.

Key? What key?

Where am I?

If I tell you I'd have to kill you.

Fine.

Who's taking me back to the hotel?

The hotel isn't too far.

Just a little

over 2000km.

Put this on.

Hey,

where are we?

I had enough fun. Someone take me back.

This is not a game.

Wow...

what is this place?

Our safehouse.

What are we doing here?

We're looking for a

diamond, the "Lucky Star."

It's not a regular diamond.

It absorbs extreme heat

but is cool to the touch.

It was stolen during an

exhibition in London.

The world's arms dealers are after it.

Arms dealers?

Wait a sec,

how do I know you guys aren't the bad guys.

Trust me, we're the good guys.

My name is Yan,

David Yan.

This is Bo, our tech specialist.

Yo Yo, I know I'm way more handsome

than a tech guy.

We're after the diamond,

but the case it's in,

well, only you can open it.

You guys are for real!

Hey! Don't touch that.

Know what this is?

It's called "Bo 1.0."

It's a super virus

that can hack any system

generate a full system crash

in less than two minutes.

My masterpiece.

Gao has gone underground.

Our only lead to the Lucky

Star is the seller,

do you remember what he looks like?

He is...

very ugly-

Can you describe him?

How ugly?

Like, really ugly.

Forget it David,

we can't go on a wild goose

chase for ugly dudes.

We just have to suck it up to HQ

and admit that we've failed.

No.

I can't have another mission

end the way it did last time.

Pull up the list of all

known jewel thieves.

Here,

that's him.

Whoa!

Li Wan.

I've worked on a case that

he was involved with.

He goes to a gentlemen's club every Friday.

It's called "Rebecca.

Rebecca Club is in Hong Kong.

Li Wan is a VIP member there.

But Rebecca is limited to only 54 members.

A new guest will be noticed right away.

You need a girl.

Girls always get into clubs.

A dancer,

good idea.

Want me to call the HQ for a female agent?

No time, this goes down now.

So where are we gonna find an agent?

Michelle?

Africa.

Amy?

South America.

Lisa?

Maternity leave.

I'm just a travel agent!

I sell tickets! And draw comics!

I absolutely cannot dance.

She's right, it's a terrible idea.

We've got 48 hours.

Plenty of time to train.

Look,

thank you for saving my life!

But I've got to be on my way.

Taxi! Taxi!

Over here, hello!

Whaddya know, she's crazy.

Taxi, hey!

Hey.

Sophie,

you're the key to a 250

million dollar diamond.

The bad guys are after you.

And when they find you, they'll kill you.

I knew I should have never left Beijing!

Taxi! Taxi!

I want to go home.

Crying won't solve anything.

Sophie,

I need your help.

Trust me.

Life is worth the adventure.

So.

If I help you find the diamond,

I can go home, right?

Deal.

Do you like a firm mattress?

I don't mind.

Great.

There's your bed.

Sweet dreams.

How come you guys still haven't cracked

open the case?

This is very odd.

We've run millions of thumb prints.

No matches.

In three days,

I'm going to demonstrate this

powerful weapon to buyers.

I can't do that

with the diamond locked in a case!

We're out of options

until we find that girl.

It was Li Wan's fault...

Take responsibility. The buyers are set.

Either find me another diamond

or find me that girl.

Three days. Or you'll find out

how I got my reputation.

Try me.

Keep at it!

Where's Sophie?

Stayed up all night

watching dance videos.

Get up. Training time.

First lesson.

Always remember,

if something goes wrong,

switch to Plan B.

Plan B is to escape. Run.

Understand?

Run? How hard can that be.

Watch closely.

Plan B!

Here we go,

The horse stance.

Left strike, right strike.

Pop that butt back in,

straighten that back.

Balance.

Turn, like this.

That's right, that's the movement.

Should be straight.

The most important thing is to kick

the enemy's... family jewels.

Hey hey.

Not mine.

Sophie, lie down.

Sophie.

0w!

Does this hurt?

You're so tight.

That's right, keep it tight.

0w!

Lock my shoulder.

0w!

That hurts!

OK.

Who do you hate more than

anyone in the world?

CiCi!

CiCi.

Who do you love the most?

Not telling.

CiCi stole him from you!

Ah!

Ow...

This tactic works.

Final lesson.

Observation.

Nothing is what it seems.

Awareness can separate life from death.

Over there,

what do you see?

Let's see,

There's a man fishing.

Seems like he's talking to himself.

But in fact, he's talking

to the fish.

He's telling them about his lost love.

He'll release the fish

back into the ocean,

and they'll carry his message

across the world in search of his love.

There's a woman

who just found out she's pregnant.

She knows the baby will grow up

to be strong and tall,

because the baby won't

stop moving in her tummy.

Over there is a little boy

who loves throwing pebbles.

In 20 years,

this lonely boy

will meet the love of his life.

Little does he know that

at this moment,

that little girl

is in that woman's tummy,

watching him.

What did you see?

Four unarmed civilians,

potential weapon in the boat anchor,

potential sniper cover in the tower.

Chopper access,

boat access,

and limited land access.

You missed everything.

Guys.

Let's get serious.

Okay, the mission is simple.

Bo distracts a dancer.

You'll go onstage as her replacement

and get Li Wan's attention.

Then you find a way to slip him this.

What's this stuff?

A little nitrous oxide,

a drop of tropane alkaloid,

with a touch of baby formula.

Poison? You guys gonna kill him?

It's a truth serum.

After ingestion,

he'll tell you everything,

and remember none of it.

Ask him who he sold the

Lucky Star diamond to.

You'll get the answer.

And when you go to the VIP room,

change into this.

It's your bulletproof jacket.
