but we've never been able

to pin anything on him.

Why the hell would Ko want to snatch

Shapiro's daughter?

We don't know, maybe they've had

a falling out of some kind.

Whatever the reason,

there's a good possibility

that Laura Shapiro

is now being held in Hong Kong.

That's impossible.

Nobody couId smuggle a girl

into Hong Kong that quickly.

- It's impossible.

- Not for Ko.

He's right. Ko's got most of the island

in his back pocket.

Sir, if Laura Shapiro's in Hong Kong

we should check it out.

[Captain] Forget it, Wong.

My Chinatown contacts

can give me the names of some good

informers over there.

lt might be worth our try.

Garoni could come with me.

He knows Hong Kong

from his Vietnam days.

You're way out of line, Wong.

l Iike it.

If you men could find Laura Shapiro

and pin it on Ko,

you might just be able to shut off the

largest heroin pipeIine

to ever come out of the Orient.

Okay, we got nothing to lose.

Why don't you two men

go to Hong Kong

as special advisors

to the local police

and see what

you can come up with.

Yes, sir.

See you, Captain.

Thank you, Captain.

Thank you.

Here's the keys to that Jeep

you asked for.

Oh, thank you.

- You sure you don't want a driver?

- No, we're okay.

Thanks for getting this

through customs for us, inspector.

We really appreciate it.

Superintendent Whitehead will meet you

tomorrow afternoon at four.

- You got it, Billy?

- Oh, yeah, thanks, see you tomorrow.

- Thanks a lot, inspector.

- Good night.

Sleep welI.

Man, you love it, huh?

We could stay at a better place,

you know?

We're on an expense account.

NostaIgia, Billy, my boy, nostalgia.

Memories of magic nights on R and R.

l remember during 'Nam,

there was nothing around here

but a bunch of horny grunts, you know?

And the women, Billy...

oh, the women were motherin' me.

And besides, nobody's gonna Iook

for us in a dump like this.

What's that?

An old Chinese coin.

A friend of mine in Chinatown

gave this to me.

lt's sort of a calling card.

- Oh yeah?

- Yeah.

Looks like a bunch of sh*t to me.

[male] I still say, it's ludicrous.

The idea that anyone couId smuggle

a girl into Hong Kong

without my office knowing about it

is simply impossible.

lmprobable, not impossible.

Now, listen to me, you two,

I spoke to your Captain and he told me

about your Dodge City tactics.

We don't appreciate people like you

in Hong Kong.

l want you to assure me that you'll

behave with the utmost discretion.

Discretion is my middle name, sir.

Show them out, inspector.

Yes, sir.

Thank you, sir.

Gentlemen, you must forgive

the superintendent.

He's been trying to nab Ko for years.

Considers it

a personaI mission in Iife.
