4/6/92 D.G. W.H. 84.

Chang bursts in.

Sees that Lee has everything under control...

CHANG:

We have to move! Now!

JEFF:

What's your hurry?

CHANG:

Gunshot. People come here -- maybe five flowers --

they're going to kill you.

LEE:

We wouldn't want that. Spoil all the preparations

we're making for you back home.

EXT. STREET' - WALLED CITY - NIGHT

Chang leads the way out of the small house.

Jeff and Jenny follow covered at the rear by Lee --

ACROSS THE WAY- DIRTY GLASS WINDOW

Paul Yau watching...

INSERT - YAU'S HANDS

He snicks a clip into a 9mm pistol, then checks the clip of a second auto --

HIGH SHOT-STREET - WALLED CITY - NIGHT

Chang still leads the group along --

EXT. ROOFTOPS-NIGHT

Paul Yau moves quietly along -- then quickly scrambles down a drainpipe.

CHANG:

Eyes alert...

He looks back

CHANG:

About two more blocks

JEFF:

Mind if we stop for a cigarette?

85.

CHANG:

'Not so funny. This is a very bad place...through

here

INT. KITCHEN

A filthy, rat infested area with a back door --

Jeff, Jenny, Lee, Chang come in --

Chang moves straight through to the back door --

EXT. ALLEY

The group makes its way out into the very narrow streets.

They round a corner.

Suddenly Chang goes down in a HAIL OF BULLETS --

Paul Yau BLASTING with both hands --

Jeff pulls Jenny back behind a building.

Lee comes forward with his pistol.

FIRES four times

Yao is HIT, falls back out of sight.

Lee quickly bends over Chang.

JEFF:

He's dead.

Lee looks up -- Jeff holding Chang's pistol directly at his face...

JEFF:

He wanted to kill me.

LEE:

'Too bad he didn't. This was a good man.

JEFF:

You want to do something about it?

LEE:

What do you have in mind?

JEFF:

Man kills your partner, you're supposed to do

something about it.

LEE:

Man kills my partner, I like doing something about it.

JEFF:

You wounded him. He won't make it very far. Let's

you and me have a truce and go kill the son of a b*tch.

LEE:

You're still under arrest.
