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

damn things is beyond me.

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?

I've known him longer than

you've been alive, Sonny.

He used to walk my sister to

school, carried her backpack.

When was the last time you were home?
