Revenge of the Green Dragons Page #2
This is a great man.
Teddy Sham had a hit single in Hong Kong
before bringing his family to America.
His son, Ricky, was Paul's best friend.
He was killed one night when
he and Paul were out drinking.
Ever since, Dragons kept an eye
on Tina, Teddy's daughter.
For Paul it was a matter of saving face.
For the rest of the Dragons,
Teddy and Tina were the relatives
who came for the weekend,
but were still sleeping on
the sofa a month later.
Hey, Bobo.
So you came here with your dad?
Eight years ago, yeah.
You must get a kick listening
to your father sing.
Look, Sonny, I should go.
Hey, hey, hey!
Whatever you think I am, you're wrong.
What do you want, Sonny?
You want to be my boyfriend?
Let me tell you something.
I don't date Green Dragons.
It must be hard living a lie,
pretending to be who you
are just so you can fit in.
Have a good night.
Dai Lo! Dai Lo! White Tigers!
Steven!
Steven! Steven! Steven!
Stay awake! Steven!
Open your eyes! Open your eyes!
Open your eyes!
Open your eyes! Steven!
Open your eyes! Stay with me.
You did good tonight.
From now on,
you're in charge of collections.
I'm not your brother.
Speak English, motherf***er.
Look, I just wanna see
you guys stay alive, okay?
Pathetic.
Let me guess, you heard nothing,
saw nothing.
But your friend is in there with
eight bullets in his chest.
Help me out, little brother.
Go f*** yourself, big brother.
If you think of anything, call me.
Hey.
You know, Big Nose
going to be all right.
How do you know that?
You probably don't know this, but
I can read someone's future
by looking at their face.
Can I?
Our entire life is
mapped out in the eyes,
the nose, but most
importantly the mouth.
It tells how your life will end.
You have a beautiful mouth, Sonny.
Lies do not come easily for you.
If you live past this year,
you'll live a long life.
Authorities say a Venezuelan trawler
ran aground tonight in
the Long Island Sound
in an apparent attempt to smuggle dozens
of Chinese men, women and
children into the country.
Once the ship was
marooned on the sandbar,
many were left to swim for their lives.
I think we tell the families
it was an act of God.
We could've made a fortune today.
Winning at mahjong doesn't
mean winning every hand.
How many Chinese are there, Paul,
waiting to get here. A billion?
Now this, Sam, this is different.
They ran the f***ing boat
right up onto the beach.
Don't you get it? They're like rats.
You let one in, you get 10.
The next month, that 10 turns into 100!
Yeah, no, I will.
You all right?
I was nine when my mother died.
I can still remember her eyes.
She was so scared.
They fished me out,
gave me to another family.
It's a risk, bringing people to America.
It takes 20 men to get one of you here.
Still, only three in five make it alive.
So why do they do it?
Why do I do it?
'Cause they pay you, what...
Ten grand?
Thirty.
Look, a dishwasher here
works like a slave.
But he has hope. He can
dream of something better.
A fisherman in China,
he'll never be anything
but a fisherman in China.
Listen, little brother.
I know how you feel.
Please, Dai Lo, let me have my revenge.
You'll get your revenge.
You want back at the White Tigers?
Yes, Dai Lo.
Then obey me.
Always, Dai Lo.
You take eight bullets and live.
More than any Dragon ever!
I swear to you on my honor,
you get revenge you deserve.
On the streets,
you learn to protect what's yours.
There were always the back and forths,
the eye for an eye.
When the White Tigers shot up our place,
they were looking for trouble.
We were more than happy
to return the favor.
Let's rock 'n' roll!
It's a trap, motherf***er!
Let's go!
You ain't sh*t, I Chung.
You Dragons ain't sh*t.
We Tigers wipe our asses
with you pieces of sh*t.
- That's right, b*tch!
- Can't believe this motherf***er!
You beat him like a dog,
he's still talking sh*t!
Dai Lo.
Look at his mouth.
Get up!
Open up!
Dai Lo! Flashing the bird, Dai Lo.
That's right.
Motherf***er flashed me the bird.
Don't move! Don't move!
Don't f***ing move. Don't f***ing move.
Don't f***ing move.
Look who's flashing the
bird now, motherf***er!
You touch your woman
with this f***ing claw?
No respect for the p*ssy.
You better kill me...
'Cause if I live, you're dead.
All of you, f***ing dead.
What did you say?
What the f*** did you say?
See you, motherf***er, in the next life.
You Tang?
Boyer, your new partner.
Who did you piss off?
White Tiger.
Looks like our guy flipped off
the wrong people.
You work the Gang Unit?
No, but I know these guys.
Now, you touched him already, right?
How long have you been a detective?
Two weeks. You?
Almost six months.
They assign this to two detectives
and not even a year's worth
of experience between us.
- So, what about it?
- So...
I've seen missing dogs get
more attention than this guy.
'Cause he's Asian.
What? Tang? Did I say something wrong?
I hear your boys have been
playing a little rough lately.
I have no boys. I'm a businessman.
You look familiar.
Have we ever known each other?
Yeah. You and your boys used
to beat the life out of me.
Look at this.
Can't be good for business.
Do you know what
bo ying means, Detective?
What goes around comes around.
Bringing me in,
middle of the night,
is disrespectful.
How the hell you eat with those
You know, they're coming, Sam.
Whether you want to believe it or not.
In case you forgot, let me
remind you, we're the FBI.
We don't investigate tourists
who overstay their visas.
You assume whoever
comes here is a saint.
Remember the Irish?
They put every convicted criminal
they had on a boat to Ellis Island.
There's guys in Flushing right now,
illegal aliens,
and they're building empires.
And just like the Jews and the
Irish or the Italians before them,
you and everybody else doesn't think
that there's an immigration problem.
And there is, and it's about
to become a crime problem.
You listen to yourself?
If you wanna investigate a couple of
delivery boys, you go right ahead.
But don't do it on government time.
You are dead wrong about this.
Sure I am.
How was your trip, uncle?
Exhilarating.
Listen, tomorrow I want
you to come with me.
We're gonna pay a visit to Ah Tai.
White Tiger Ah Tai?
you've been alive, Sonny.
He used to walk my sister to
school, carried her backpack.
When was the last time you were home?
Me?
Five, six years.
You wanna go next week?
Bring me back some mooncakes?
I'll buy you the ticket.
I can't. I got Thursday nights.
You can find someone for that.
Right, Sonny?
Yes.
It's Hong Kong.
You tell me what I got to do,
Dai Lo, and it's done.
Good man.
I'll have Sonny arrange everything.
Since when can't an old
friend bring you mooncakes?
Might be an old bastard,
but there's not a lot I don't remember.
- What do you mean?
- Your sister.
