Rapid Fire

Hold it!

Hey!

Do not disturb our guests.

You make us look bad.

Long flight, huh, Mr Serrano?

to my country, my friend.

Hey, come here.

It's a long way from the south side, Tommy.

Welcome, Mr Serrano.

Mr Serrano? Get outta here! Tony.

Do not fear the weapon,

fear the man.

Please... Tony.

Can you believe it's been 20 years, Tony?

Meanwhile, you still look like a kid.

Now look at me

I got wrinkles on the inside, my friend!

- You don't know my worries, Tommy.

- Cocaine sales down 37 per cent.

- You got good sources.

- CNN.

Hey, uh...

I need help, Tommy.

Come. Let us see the fight.

Sit in the back and keep

a watchful eye.

Hey, Tommy,

I didn't come 10,000

f***in' miles to watch

these guys whack each

other with big toothpicks

Why did you come, Tony?

You know why I'm hurting,

then you know why I came.

I supply you with heroin, you distribute it.

It's good business for everyone.

Better for you.

I made you, Tommy. I want something back.

I want a piece of your end.

I like you, Mr Serrano. Don't push it!

Now you listen to me,

you f***in' little bastard!

I got you started when

all your couriers could

deliver were fortune cookies and

You were a f***in' runner for me, Tommy.

That's your history.

You owe me, the Tongs owe me,

everybody owes me.

And I don't give a f*** who hears it!

What the hell did he just say?

It's a Sicilian proverb.

It means:

"Don't ask for what you can't take."

Machine guns cannot murder our dreams.

Prisons cannot silence our voices.

Two years ago today,

Tiananmen Square was a nightmare!

But the dream of democracy lives on...

Free China now!

Free China now! Free China now!

Free China now! Free China now!

- Check this out.

- Free China now!

Free China now!

Free China now! Free China now!

Freedom in China

Dad! We have to get outta here!

Jake! Jake, get out now!

Agh!

Dad!

Jake!

Jake!

Dad!

- Uh, Jake Lo, right?

- Yeah.

- Hi. I'm Paul Yang. It's great to meet you

- I know who you are. I'm not interested

You were there.

We're having a fundraiser tonight, you know

I thought maybe you could come and, uh

- speak to the students

- No

Don't you care about the cause?

Do you see me waving a flag?

Okay, how can you not care, man?

Your old man's death had...

nothing to do with the revolution

My old man died for nothing

That's nice. That's good.

Very good improvement.

Jake...

This is life study, OK?

Just draw what you see.

That's what I see.

OK, everybody. Good work. See you Friday.

Could I look at what you did?

Sure. Yeah.

Wow!

- That's me?

- No. You're the dragon.

- Do you like it?

- I really like it.

- Here.

- Thanks.

Well, I'd better go get dressed.

Yeah. You'd catch a cold.

Hey.

You wanna go out with me tonight?

- Yeah. Sure.

- Great!

Um...

Why don't you meet me here...

around 8:
00?

Who knows? Maybe you'll think

I'm sexier with my clothes on!

- Thank you.

- Sure.

Don't bet on it.

Carl!

Kinman!

I have a little gift for you

Oh, Tommy, this is beautiful!

- Fifth-century Mongolian.

- Oh, I know. I know.

It's good to have you back in LA.

Carl, I want you to be extra careful

in the next few weeks, OK?

Why?

Serrano. He paid me a visit.

Let me tell you something.

Serrano's got dick. He's broke.

All his guys are in the pen. He's weak.

I know he's weak.

As long as you take care of business,

everything will be fine.

I will. I will, Tommy.

- Hi, Jake.

- How you doin'?

Come in.

For a minute I thought

I had the wrong address.

No. This is the place.

- This'll work. Yours?

- A businessman lets us use it.

Ladies and gentlemen... Jake Lo.

He was there, everybody.

He was in Tiananmen.

His father was one of

the great martyrs of the cause.

Hi.

I'm so glad you could make it, Jake.

How else could we get you down here?

Just wait a second. Listen to me.

Please. We need money, Jake!

Just a few words. No politics, no flag-waving.

- Just the truth about what you saw.

- Paul?

This is our sponsor - Carl Chang.

Jake. Great admirer of your father's.

So what's in this for you, Mr Chang?

Democracy. Capitalism.

It's all a good cause.

Well, uh, if you'll excuse me...

Refreshments are upstairs.

It's a pleasure, Jake.

All right, everyone! You follow me,

I'll give you a tour of our operation.

As you can see over here...

Come on, stay for one drink.

Let me make it up to you.

Well, you have something for me?

The trucks are rolling. They will arrive

in Chicago ahead of schedule.

Ahead of schedule?

That's what I like to hear.

Over there.

We came down the chimney. Ho-ho-ho!

Ho-ho.

Your boss, that, uh...

ungrateful yellow bastard...

won't give me what

should be mine by rights.

He says...

"Oh, you got to be willing to take it."

Well...

I'm an American.

And we know how to take things.

I'm takin' your percentage

of the heroin business...

as of right now.

You do not want to do this.

- You can't do this!

- It's done.

Give me your shipping manifests

and your books.

Come on, come on, come on.

Oh, that's a good boy.

You goddamn Guinea bastard!

Son of a b*tch!

He's mine!

Come on!

Agh!

Some Chink kid over there in a blackjacket!

- He saw me whack Chang!

- You heard him! Move it!

You get to the front!

Angelo, get down from the goddamn roof!

Come on. Give me your hand!

Agh!

Go down the stairs! You'll be OK. Go!

Get me outta here.

Black jacket across the kitchen. Get him!

Sh*t!

Son of a b*tch!

Whack him!

Sh*t!

- Freeze!

- Hey!

Hands on your head!

- Gentlemen. Nathan Wesley, FBI.

- Morning.

- Special Agents Stuart and Daniels.

- Hello.

This is a local murder case.

Who called the Feds?

Carl Chang was the chief middleman

in the supply of heroin

to the Chicago Mafia.

- Who's this kid?

- Name is Jake Lo. Student, art major.

- We wanna see him.

- This way.

He's the only one who saw what went down.

Father was career army, deceased.

Army intelligence.

He was attached to the Beijing embassy

in '89 when the sh*t went down,

Medal of Honor, taught

the martial arts at Langley.

Wing chun, kung fu, mui tai.

Great. More cops.

- We're FBI. I'm Special Agent Wesley.

- Cops in suits.

You wanna take a look at the mug books?

Help us out!

You know what I think?

Maybe this is the guy that did it.

- The guy that did it needed a gun.

- Put that thing down!

- Hey, hey! Take it easy.

- Shut up, Frank!

Now look in the goddamn books.

- He's not in the books.

- What makes you so sure?

Look. Look.

Serrano.

- That's who shot Chang?

- Friend of yours?

This is our break.

How about giving Jake some space?

Cigarette?

In 48 hours, the grand jury

shuts down a three-year investigation...

into the Chicago branch of La Cosa Nostra,

of which Antonio Serrano is the boss.

- Great. Keep the picture.

- Serrano must've taken this awful personal.

I'll bet he hasn't pulled

a trigger himself in 15 years.

That's right.

And you, my friend, were there to see it.

You're our prize witness.

Look, all I wanted to do was clear myself.
