Running down the street.

Hears FOOTSTEPS

Turns.

Lee chasing him.

Gaining on him.

Eddy FIRES a wild shot.

He turns a corner --

LEE:

Full stride --

Races around the same comer...

Cars, people, lights.

Eddy twenty yards away.

Kneeling in the firing position.

Aims, FIRES.

Eddy FIRES again.

Then runs into a crowded intersection --

Lee chases...

INTERSECTION - CITY STREETS - DOWNTOWN HONG KONG

More TRAFFIC.

Cars, buses, trucks, pedestrians --

He sees...

EDDY:

Boarding a CROWDED STREETCAR --

Runs toward the streetcar --

People cutting him a wide swath...

It moves off down the track.

Eddy looks out the window.

Sees Lee running toward the streetcar.

He'll never make it.

Eddy sits down next to A MIDDLE-AGED COUPLE.

Safe.

The streetcar pulling away from him.

He turns on the speed.

Chases down the track.

Running like hell.

Catches it. Jumps on the back platform.

Lee comes into the car.

Gun out.

Terrified people trying to get out of his way.

He sights Eddy now cringing behind a WOMAN.

Reaching for his pistol.

LEE:

Raises his gun.

Takes careful aim.

People SCREAMING.

LEE:

Freeze!

EDDY:

Grabs the Woman as a shield with one hand.

Raises the gun with the other.
