Finishing The Game: The Search For A New Bruce Lee Page #2

against the Russians.

I make public appearances

as Addey the Astro-duck

and they treat me like a king.

Especially moms.

Is space exploration

an important issue for you?

Actually, no. I think there are

far bigger problems here on Earth

and here in this country.

- Can you elaborate on that?

- Racism for one.

Our people have been oppressed

for far too long.

- Really?

- Yeah.

There have been no reparations

for the abuse our people suffered

building the railroads

in the 1860s.

That's just the tip

of the proverbial iceberg.

But, Tarrick, um...

aren't you Caucasian?

I'm half Chinese.

So, um...

so, Tarrick,

why do you want to audition

for The Game of Death?

I admire Bruce Lee as a role model

for the Asiatic community.

I try to be the same. Maybe my work is on

a smaller, more humble, grass-roots level,

but I think that reaching out

to promote the yellow brotherhood

certainly has its place.

Do you really feel like

you have a shot at getting the part?

Nothing has ever been given to me.

My life has been a continual struggle.

It's that very struggle

that fuels my art.

You call me "slanty eyes."

I stay silent. But my eyes

can see the damage being done to me.

Emasculated half-man.

I don't deny there's a piece of me

long-dead on the tracks.

But I am railroaded every day.

Tracked and trapped.

But never defeated.

Never defeated.

But also...

never free!

Let's face it, leading men and ladies

are white. You can't deny it.

But what about the people they visit,

the ones they encounter?

The noble savages,

the angry Pygmies,

the exotic geishas

and the street thugs.

All of them?

Colored folks.

And when I say "colored,"

I mean all colors.

Hollywood needs these colors

to paint their pictures.

And I'm the one

who delivers the variety.

I represent Latinos,

Orientals and Afro-Americans.

Hell, I even got clients

who are Afro-Latinos and Latin-Orientals.

You want 'em, I got 'em.

Some of my clients

have even stepped into the spotlight

and made a real name

for themselves,

Clear. Go!

Just relax.

Troy Poon was the costar

of a hit primetime TV show.

Chang.

Bring this clown

down to the squad car.

Hey, man,

I ain't gonna do your laundry.

"Hey, man,

I ain't gonna do your laundry."

Troy's tag line swept the nation.

J.J. Walker had nothing on him.

Wow.

It's Rob Force.

You know, the last time we met,

you had the gun to my head.

I should have shot you

when I had the chance.

Woulda, coulda, shoulda,

Robbie.

Any last requests?

Hey, Chang, why don't you send for

someone to pick up this rotting corpse?

Hey.

I ain't gonna do your laundry.
