LEE:

You mean "we're" all the same. Remember, as I go, you go.

Chen doesn't say anything because he knows Lee's right. After

a moment he gets up from the chair.

CHEN:

The Ginza massage is getting a visit from us tomorrow

night, so move it or lose it.

LEE:

Go ahead and take Ginza. More arrests will help keep

things calm.

A smiling Lee, stamps out his butt and circles the table.

LEE:

If the Feds get near Uncle Benny, our heads go first. So

you do whatever it takes to make some kind of case against

Bobby Vu and the rest of the Fukes. I'm sure the FBI will be

just as happy with them. As you said, we're all the same.

Lee slides two tickets into Chen's front jacket pocket.

LEE:

Knicks, court-side.

Chen puts down his glass and walks into the hallway.

INT BLUE EMPRESS HALLWAY - NIGHT

He cuts across a narrow corridor and passes through a door tucked

behind dried, hanging ducks. Then it's down a flight of stairs...

INT UNDERGROUND STAIRS & HALLS - NIGHT

...through a maze of underground alley-ways, populated by well

dressed TEENAGE THUGS, and into the world beneath Chinatown.

Chen walks up toward a massive BOUNCER standing in front

of a steel door. He slides the tickets into his shirt pocket.

CHEN:

Knicks, court-side.

The Bouncer opens the door, exposing a room filled with Chinese

MEN playing all things you can wager a buck on.

INT GAMBLING PARLOR - NIGHT

Chen surveys the action which is loud, fast and furious. He

fires a smoke, pulls a fist full of hundreds from his envelope

and lays down his first bet of the night.

EXT:
EAST BROADWAY ARCADE-NIGHT

Jack and his attractive girlfriend AMY SAN hang with their

friends in front of the arcade when Bobby Vu and three other

Dragons pull up in a red Lincoln. They quickly grab hold of

Jack.

BOBBY VU:

(Fukienese)

You let your brothers die?

Everything stops as Bobby punches, kicks and throws Jack

around the street. The other Dragons keep everybody away,

though they already seem to know.

JACK:

(Fukienese)

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

BOBBY VU:

(Fukienese)

Are you Fukienese Dragon?...ARE YOU?!

JACK:

Yes.

Bobby looks over at Amy. She's sexy as hell and he lets

her know he knows it. He then turns to Jack and grabs him

by his hair.

BOBBY VU:

Avenge your brothers. Kill that cop.
