Rush Hour 2
(3.00 / 1 vote)EXT. HONG KONG SKYLINE - ESTABLISHING
A smoky haze dims the blazing sun. Skyscrapers sit like
watchtowers over the city, where East meets West for five and
EXT. AMERICAN CONSULATE - HONG KONG - DAY
THE AMERICAN EMBASSY - U.S. and Chinese flags side by side.
HU LI, dark glasses, EXITS and slowly moves toward a STREET
VENDOR across the street.
She pays for an order of pork bao; as she takes her first
bite we see:
TWO OFFICES ON THE SIXTH FLOOR BLOWN OUT - a huge fireball
erupting over one side of the embassy.
People panic and run. Hu Li doesn't even flinch. She takes
a bite of her pork bao as she casually turns to the stunned
street vendor.
HU LI:
(Chinese, subtitled)
Someone better call the police.
EXT./INT. LEE'S CAR - CONTINUOUS
The passenger window rolls down and we see Carter, styling in
a Chinese-cut suit. He's holding a Chinese-English
dictionary, leaning out the window - giving his best "do me"
look to two girls in a convertible.
CARTER:
(int Chinese)
Deng wa lu yun cai-shen wu.
The HORRIFIED GIRLS speed off, and Carter turns to Lee, who
is driving and singing to his radio.
LEE:
(singing)
...wish they all could be California...
wish they all could be California
girls...
Carter ejects the BEACH BOYS CD from the stereo and TOSSES it
out of the SUNROOF.
CARTER:
I warned you about playing that sh*t
when I'm in the car.
LEE:
That was my CD. Don't you ever touch a
Chinese man's CD.
CARTER:
Did you see the way those girls drove
off? I did you a favor.
LEE:
Those girls drove off because of you.
CARTER:
All I did was invite them for a drink.
LEE:
You invited them to get naked and
sacrifice a small goat.
CARTER:
(checking Chinese-English
dictionary)
I said that? Which word was "goat?"
LEE:
You owe me a copy of the Beach Boys
Greatest Hits, Volume Two.
CARTER:
Don't be giving me attitude, Lee. I've
been here three days and we haven't done
sh*t. We haven't been to a club,
haven't even talked to a girl. I'm on
vacation, and I want some mu-shu.
LEE:
Mu-shu? You're hungry?
CARTER:
Not Mu-shu. Mu-shu. I want to see some
women. Now stop playing dumb and show
me the shu!
Carter flips through the dictionary. A CALL COMES in over
LEE'S CELL PHONE.
INTERCUT:
INT. SUPERINDENDENT CHIN'S OFFICE - NIGHT
The following conversation is in Chinese, English subtitles.
SUPERINDENDENT CHIN
Lee, there was a bombing at the American
Embassy. Two American translators were
killed.
LEE:
Any leads?
SUPERINDENDENT CHIN
(beat)
We think it's Ricky Tan. If you don't
want to take the case, I'll understand.
LEE:
It's my responsibility.
Lee hangs up the cell phone.
CARTER:
What was that? Did you just pick up a
case? Did we just take another damn
case on my vacation?
Lee smiles at Carter.
LEE:
Of course not. My Superindendent
invited us to a club tonight. Big
party.
CARTER:
Don't be messing with me, Lee. I will
kick your ass. I'll hit you so hard
you'll end up in the Ming Dynasty.
LEE:
Carter, would I lie to you?
Carter follows Lee out of the car, the two men making their
way to the door of the Raven Club. Carter is combing his
hair, getting himself ready for a night on the town, stopping
when he spots two hot WOMEN walking into the club.
CARTER:
That's what I'm talking about. A real
Hong Kong night club. You want an
Altoid?
LEE:
No.
CARTER:
You better take one. Your breath has
been a little funky all day. Let me
look at you.
Carter looks at Lee. Fixes his collar.
CARTER (CONT'D)
Just relax and don't worry about a
thing. I'll hook you up in there. You
got condoms?
