Big Trouble in Little China (1986) Edit

A girl brave enough to embrace the naked blade.

A girl from China? All right, I never done that.

A girl with green eyes to satisfy Ch'ing ti,

A guardian. What it sees, Lo Pan knows.

A lot of Chinese hear these things when we're kids, then we grow up,

A special kind of woman with dragon green eyes,

A thousand years ago, huge earthquakes turned the world upside down.

A what?

A world so unreal and yet, at once, so frightening.

A young man, a king, a warrior, is entombed in this old man's crippled body.

Afraid? Are you kidding?

After all these years.

Against the Bodhisattva of the underworld, the ultimate evil spirit.

All has become strange.

All movement in the universe is caused by tension between positive and negative furies.

All right, boys, where's the main panel? Probably through here.

All right, look. What's your name? Mine's Jack Burton.

All right, out this hatch and up the cable. Does that sound like a brilliant idea or what?

All right, which way? Fast, before they wake up.

All right. You got any guns?

And a man would have to be some kinda fool to think we're all alone in this universe.

And a wise man has enough sense to get in out of the rain.

And all I need is a woman, Mr Burton,

And anybody that showed up was gonna join Lem Lee in the hell of being cut to pieces.

And he stands there, waiting for me to drive my truck straight through him,

And I suppose that you expect me to believe in sorcery as well?

And imposed upon him that horrible curse of no flesh in 272 BC.

And live out my earthly pleasures with Miao Yin.

And marry her to appease the God of the East.

And my money. And time is money to a guy like me. And your phone is dead, by the way.

And owns the Wing Kong Trading Company,

And pretend not to believe them.

And price is no object, Mrs O'Toole.

And the poison arrows fall from the sky and the pillars of heaven shake.

And there are people who say you're involved,

And this time they are not alone. Egg Shen is with them.

And where's that gettin' us? Nowhere, fast.

And yet we all keep trying, like fools.

And your souls speed with his to the hell of the oily dragon!

Are we going up or down?

Are you OK? Are you Miao Yin?

Are you still serious about this? And monsters and ghosts as well, I suppose?

As I insert this needle into Miao Yin.

Bad news. The Lords of Death stole it after you ran away.

Beautiful green eyes, like creamy jade.

Because it's real.

Because what I really am in the mood for is a girl with green eyes.

Before you knew me, I slept on the floor.

Bend over.

Blindfolds!

Boy, I wish these were in colour.

Boy, listen to me. Real tough guy.

Boy. The guy you always told me about.

Breaks my heart to do this, but the next time I'm down here,

Bus driver. What kind of bus and where, please?

But finally we shall bring order out of chaos.

But I can!

But I've experienced some unreasonable things.

But if I'm gonna be your attorney, there are a few things I have to know

But there is one thing even David Lo Pan must acknowledge.

But this woman has a deadline, and her pen is mightier than your sword.

But to appease the emperor, he had to kill her.

But who's so reclusive that no one has laid eyes on him in years?

Bye, Jack.

Call the cops!

Call the cops!

Can you?

Ch'ing ti is appeased.

Ch'ing ti, make me flesh again soon.

Ch'ing ti! Ch'ing ti!

China is here, Mr Burton. The Chang Sing, the Wing Kong.

Chinese girls do not come with green eyes.

Christ!

Come into our presence and witness this holy matrimony.

Come on, come on.

Come on, Dave, you must be doin' somethin' seriously wrong.

Come on, Jack!

Come on, Jack!

Come on, Jack!

Come on, let's go!

Come on!

Come on.

Come on.

Come, Miao Yin, it won't hurt.

Come, my love. Give it to me.

Course I do, but it's underneath the...

Dammit!

Do you at the present time have any knowledge

Do you really believe in magic?

Don't get up. Phone company.

Don't make a sound.

Don't panic, Jack. They're OK. They're good guys.

Duck!

Egg Shen, bus driver.

Egg Shen! You have come a long ways to find me, but it is too late.

Egg Shen?

Egg's kind of our local authority on Lo Pan.

Empty.

Exactly. It's real and we can touch it, so at least we know where we stand.

Excuse me for a second, guys. I think I know that car.

Excuse me, ma'am. I don't suppose you saw a...

Excuse me.

First time you ever plugged somebody?

First, just state your name and your occupation for the record.

Flightnumber26 has just arrived at gate number seven.

Follow the leader. One, two, three.

Get in.

Get that one!

Give the guy a chance.

Go ahead. You want bad publicity? Give us the run around.

Go for it, Wang!

Go right! Now!

God, aren't you even gonna kiss her goodbye?

God, it's creepy. Do we have to go in? Because I will, if we have to.

Good work, Jack. I think they actually fell for it.

Good!

Goodbye, Mr Burton.

Great Ch'ing ti, equal with heaven,

Great! Who wiped out all those yellow turbans? Those guys were winning.

Great.

Great. Thank you, Jack.

Green explosions? People flyin' in and out? That was not real. I wanna talk to the cops.

Green flame! All hell is breaking loose here.

Hang onto this.

Have me over for dinner some year and prove it. In the meantime, pay up: $1,148 times two.

He does.

He looks you crooked in the eye and asks you if you’ve paid your dues,

He quits? What is this? It's a brand new day and he's still got 100 bucks in his pocket.

He says it was the Storms. The Three Storms.

He subjugated Lo Pan, made him of no flesh.

He was marrying both of us, just because my eyes are green too.

He wishes. Look, you know me.

Heaven and earth, boys. What can I tell ya?

Hell of the upside down sinners!

Hello. Hello?

Her mother? Her father? He must be a holy man. I must know.

Here he is, Jack.

Here's the deal. I run interference and you bring up the rear. Can you handle that?

Here's to America's colours, the colours that never run.

Here's to the army and navy and the battles they have won.

Hey, you! Come on over here and fight like a man!

Hide!

Holy shit!

How can I know that, Mr Shen?

How do you do, ma'am? Henry Swanson's my name and excitement's my game.

How seldom it works out.

Huge buzz.

I am the past, come back to haunt you, Lo Pan!

I am! It worked!

I bet up there's where we first got on that elevator.

I came here alone. I worked my fingers till they bled.

I can help you.

I can see things no one else can see.

I can't believe you're stuck on even. This is odd!

I can't concentrate when you do that.

I can't eat, sleep or think properly without her any more. She'll put my whole life in order.

I count to three, open the door, and we go.

I do. How about we meet in my restaurant in a few hours? I pay then.

I don't blame you. I'm Chinese and I don't even wanna believe it, but it's for real.

I don't know what that means. All I know is, this Lo Pan character comes out of thin air

I feel pretty good. You know, I'm not...

I got a great idea.

I have suffered so much pain and agony. Look at me!

I know. There's a problem with your face.

I love working nights.

I mean, it's not deductible, is it?

I must sacrifice you, but I love you and I need you.

I need you, Miao Yin.

I picked up girls from everywhere else, but never from China. Is she pretty?

I ran straight through him, Wang. How the hell did I do that?

I saved every nickel to bring her here because I love her so much.

I says "Honey, I never drive faster than I can see."

I thought what we were here, racial differences aside,

I wanna see that disgusting flesh peddler David Lo Pan in person.

I want my truck back. Now where the hell am I?

I was born ready.

I'll go anywhere or do anything to get my story. It's my big break.

I'll stick with these. You comin' with us, Egg?

I'll trade ya.

I'm always pokin' my nose where it doesn't belong and, I admit it,

I'm gonna tell you about an accident and I don't wanna hear "act of God", OK?

I'm Margo Litzenberger. I'm with the Berkeley People’s Herald.

I'm mortal!

I'm not gonna complain, because I'll bet I'd have lost my shirt in the next 20 minutes.

I've been trying to get somebody from the press to listen to me about this, Burton.

I've known her since we were kids. I haven't seen her in five years.

If the Storms have Miao Yin, there's one place they'd go.

If we go tonight, we can buy her back. A warrant's too complicated,

If we're not back by dawn, call the president.

In order to be whole again, he had to find this certain girl of his prophecy,

In the middle of an alley, while his buddies fly around, cuttin' everybody to shreds,

Insult me.

Is it gettin' hot in here, or is it just me?

Is it too much to ask, Thunder? Kill him! For me!

Is that you grant me flesh and blood.

Is this gonna get ugly now? I hope not.

It feels like down.

It is time to collect.

It won't solve anything, Dave. Too many people have been droppin' like flies already

It's a good knife.

It's about all sorts of scary things: an ancient army of the dead,

It's all in the reflexes.

It's like leather bucket seats: double the price.

It's not possible that you saw David Lo Pan. The bastard's afraid to show his face.

It's OK, Jack. Wing Kong storeroom. Emergency provisions.

It's OK, Tara. You can go back to sleep.

It's working!

Jack, listen. I need more of your help. I can't pay you today, OK?

Jack!

Jack!

Jack?

Jesus Christ! Where are we?

Jump, Jack!

Just look under B U R T O N, will ya?

Just passing the neighbourhood on a dark and stormy night?

Just sit tight. We've got one of our best men inside right now, stirring the pot.

Kill her? No!

Later.

Learn how to play some fan tan here, buddy boy!

Leaving behind their wives and children.

Let him complete the ceremony. Then he is ours for certain!

Let me go! Let me go!

Let's get outta here.

Let's go! Open the doors!

Let's go. It's clear.

Let's you and me have a little talk, friend.

Like the immortals. His flesh and his bones are atomised.

Like...

Listen, I've had it up to here with you maniacs.

Little bastard sorcerer has brought them through the Bog of the Dead Trees.

Lo Pan appeared on the street?

Lo Pan has plans for us, or we'd be dead doornails.

Lo Pan is dead and the evil spell's been lifted.

Lo Pan, the word is, ordered the boss of the Chang Sings, Mr Lem Lee, assassinated.

Lo Pan. The godfather of Little China, Mr David Lo Pan.

Long time ago, Chinese men with gold rush fever flooded into California.

Look at that. Doesn't that make you feel good?

Look out, guys!

Look, we came here to see David Lo Pan, all right?

Lords of Death controlled by the Wing Kong, Jack. Just errand boys for the Wing Kong.

Lucky us. We made it.

Many normal people were killed.

Many unnatural people roam free

Margo, jump in!

Marry her?

May the wings of liberty never lose a feather.

Maybe you can come over to my place later and help me find a title?

Maybe. Take your tie off, please.

Miao Yin or Grace Law.

Miao Yin!

Miao Yin!

Miao Yin?

Mr Burton, if you have an influence over your youthful friend, you better exert it now.

Mrs O'Toole will take care of your needs.

Mutual Fidelity Insurers of Sacramento.

My demon. The god I must appease in order to regain my heart, my blood.

My destiny rests in your capable hands.

My God, no! Please! What is that? Don't tell me.

My work's done.

Next year we'll start importing a lot of strange things from Peking.

No pathetic excuses.

No questions! Just get outta here, Jack!

No way!

No, not me, Mr Burton.

No, these are our friends. These are the Chang Sings.

No, you don't. You belong to Ch'ing ti.

No!

No!

No! I don't understand. I don't belong to you!

No.

No.

Not acting on orders from the Wing Kong.

Not against Lo Pan, but here's one for you to make you feel better, like Dirty Harry.

Not so fast, gentlemen.

Nothin' or double.

Now we must satisfy the First Sovereign Emperor by destroying this!

Now, let's try that again. Don't make me kill you, tough guy.

Of the whereabouts of a Mr Jack Burton or his truck?

Offices, storerooms: a nice false front.

Oh, boy.

Oh, Christ!

OK.

OK.

OK. But not that bottle.

Old Jack always says

On a stormy night, when the lightning's crashin', the thunder's roarin',

Open up or I'll blow his head off!

Open! Or he dies in the name of Ch'ing ti

Or I'm not about to waste another 2,000 years.

Otherwise I will send both of you to the hell where people are skinned alive.

Peasant magic!

Play your cards right, you live to talk about it.

Plays at being a man. A creature of vast, dark, destructive power.

Please, help me.

Please.

Please.

Plus, the skirmish you guys stumbled into.

Prepare them.

Preparing for Lo Pan's wedding.

Pull it apart. Come on!

Put me down, you overstuffed monster!

Relax.

Remember what old Jack Burton does when the earth quakes

Repulsive and evil, existing only to plague the living.

Safe. Safer with me than any creature on earth!

Safety!

Saving all their pennies. And then they sent for their families

Seawater from the bay fills this room. They divert it through pipes to different chambers.

See? That was nothing.

She has green eyes. You know how rare that is, Jack?

She's a what? Oh, come on!

Shit, Jack. I don't like the looks of this.

Shit, Wang. It's only a game.

Shit!

Sit back and enjoy yourselves, see?

So do I!

So what is this? Chinese or somethin'?

So where is he, Egg? Where?

Something about beginner's luck. It doesn't translate. But he quits.

Somewhere inside.

Son of a bitch must pay!

Sorcery, the Chinese black magic.

Stay away from her. She's a lawyer.

Stop! Red light!

Strange girl.

Sure. And sorcery.

Take it away!

Take it easy. OK, we made it.

Tara!

Tell me about Miao Yin.

Terrific. A six demon bag. Sensational. What's in it, Egg?

Thank you. Now, before we get to the meat of this thing,

That building there. The White Tiger.

That is not water.

That sounds pretty great. But sooner or later I rub everybody the wrong way.

That still don't make any sense to me.

That way maybe.

That you might be responsible, that you're a very dangerous man.

That's right, Egg Shen. The best of two worlds.

That's what I thought you meant. Where's your truck?

That's why I was there. I was protecting her civil rights, making sure she gets a chance.

That's why the bottle didn't slice. My mind and my spirit are goin' north and south.

The cab driver said... He told me that I could...

The cable is three storeys high and covered with grease.

The evil dream will die.

The First Sovereign Emperor of China,

The First Sovereign Emperor...

The girl with green eyes. The girl who can tame the burning blade.

The image of difficulty at the beginning.

The light's green. You can go.

The Lords of Death. Street gang. Punks from Chinatown. What are they doing here?

The moment of truth.

The most dangerous den of madmen in Chinatown? You can't waltz in like...

The only way it might work is if you buy a bigger truck

The Spirit City and monkey sacrifices.

The stuff in these bottles is priceless.

The way I see it, it doesn't mean we shouldn't ask. Where's my truck?

Then the people turn into demons and live for ever.

There are many mysteries and unanswerable questions, even in a life as short as yours.

There are many mysteries and unanswerable questions, even in a life as short as yours.

There can't be many Chinese girls with green eyes these days.

There have been others, to be sure. There are always others, are there not?

There, I think. Down there.

There's Buddhism, Confucianism and Taoist alchemy and sorcery.

There's my truck... My truck!

These guys are animals, Jack.

They have returned.

They have survived the burning blade, tamed the savage heart.

They just wanted a girl to sell and Miao Yin got in the way.

They took the girl they kidnapped to the White Tiger's for a quick sale. Who was she?

This bottle.

This fine warm day.

This is Jack Burton at the Pork Chop Express and I'm talkin' to whoever's listen in'.

This is just so shocking. I mean, I must just be so monumentally naive.

This mix up is my fault, sort of.

This one has fire as well!

Three guys did all that? Listen.

Three!

Time to go.

To commit great offences against the gods.

To help build this beautiful Chinatown you see outside your window

To make me whole and young again, so that I may rule the universe from beyond the grave.

Tour bus. Bus for tourists. San Francisco Chinatown.

Triple. You earned it.

Trouble, huh?

Two girls with green eyes?

Two, three feet thick, I'll bet. Probably welded shut and covered with brick by now.

Unless the coward's afraid to see an unarmed girl one on one!

Until I find her and marry her.

Very small.

Wait a minute, pal.

Wait a minute, pal.

Wait a minute!

Wait a minute! I'm a reasonable guy,

Wang, haul ass!

Wang, these guys, these Sing Dings. They got enemies?

Wang!

Wang!

Wang.

Was a couple old friends, both of us Californians.

Watch out, Wang Chi!

We are getting ready to strike the final blow.

We are in his debt. He showed great courage.

We call Gum Shan Mountain of Gold, see?

We fight together, Jack. Do or die.

We have to gather our strength, because now there's clouds and thunder.

We made it. Holy shit, we made it!

We may be trapped.

We really shook the pillars of heaven, didn't we, Wang?

We take what we want and leave the rest. Just like your salad bar.

We're all in: me, Gracie and Margo. Uncle Chu and Egg are in Egg's bus, ready to get us out.

We're getting close. Real close. And now for some more bad news. Ready?

We're in a room. No windows, a few skeletons.

We're inside Lo Pan's domain.

We've got to do something!

Well then, what you're saying is this David Lo Pan... What is he? A ghost?

Well, all set?

Well, I don't know my policy number. It's in the glove compartment.

Well, last chance. I'm a rich man now.

Well, last time we had this problem was on account of squirrels chewin' the wires.

Well, let me think about it.

Well, let's go. What are we talkin' Chinese history for when we gotta get...

Well, that the White Tiger would...

Well, there's gotta be a listing, honey. I pay 'em six G's a year in premiums.

Well, what a night's work! You got a problem like that again,

Well, why don't you go on over to China? Visit the motherland?

Well, you see, I'm not sayin' that I've been everywhere and I've done everything.

What a pig you are, Burton! I mean, really!

What do I know? She's not even your type. All brains.

What does it mean?

What does that say?

What happens? You stay here a while? Old girls leave, new girls come in?

What I need to get straight is... These Storms, what are they? Magicians?

What I'd like to do today is get your version of what happened.

What province is she from? Hunan?

What sort of strange things?

What you got here is two people dragging a third.

What, I'm supposed to buy this shit? 2,000 years and he can't find a broad to fit the bill?

What?

What's goin' on, Wang? Why'd they steal your girl?

What's goin' on, Wang? Why'd they steal your girl?

What's in the flask? Magic potion?

What's it gonna hurt?

What's she doing now?

When some wild eyed maniac grabs your neck,

Where are you goin', Egg?

Where is he?

Where?

Where'd you get that?

Where's Gracie?

Where's Jack?

Which Lo Pan? Little old basket case on wheels, or the ten foot tall roadblock?

Whichever comes first.

Who are these people? Friends of yours? Now this really pisses me off to no end!

Who the hell are you, anyway?

Who the hell are you, anyway?

Who's that?

Whoa. Who is that?

Will you just stop rubbing your body up against mine?

Wind! Fire! All that kind of thing.

Wing Kong outside.

With a cosy little apartment in back, just big enough for two.

With the easing of trade restrictions,

Working for years to complete the transcontinental railroad,

Yeah, I am. It says "Keep out."

Yeah, I know what you mean. My wife gave it to me for Christmas.

Yeah, in deep shit.

Yeah, it did. Two hours ago. Tall guy, weird clothes. First you see him, then you don't.

Yeah, Jack Burton just looks that big old storm right square in the eye and he says

Yeah, right. What I meant was, I don't got that kind of money on me.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah.

Years ago I promised myself a long vacation.

Yes! Guide my hand

Yes. I thought that was your whole damn point!

Yes. Miao Yin.

Yes. Only a dream can kill a dream.

You all right?

You are not looking for a truck. You're looking for a girl. A girl with green eyes.

You can rule the universe from beyond the grave.

You can see things no one else can see, do things no one else can do.

You could be in a great deal of trouble. Half a city block explodes in a ball of green flame.

You got a tongue, Dave. Ask her yourself.

You have come to seek me out with your green eyes.

You heard me!

You just listen to the Pork Chop Express and take his advice

You just stare that big sucker back in the eye and remember what Jack Burton always says.

You know what I don't like? Where is everybody?

You know what this is? This is like some radical Alice In Wonderland.

You like that one? What did he say, Wang? In English?

You mean Chinese black magic?

You mean the Lo Pan that's chairman of the National Orient Bank

You never could beat me, Egg Shen.

You never know till you try.

You seem to be one who knows the difficulties between men and women,

You sound a little nervous, pal.

You tell me! How come it's not safe to walk in Central Park or to give a stranger a lift?

You think they'd let us walk in and out like the wind?

You wanna go up or down?

You want one more? All right!

You will come out no more!

You, whose eyes flash like emerald lightning.

You'll gang up on Jack so fast he won't know what the hell happened.

You're outta your mind, Wang. God bless ya!

You're right, I did. Thanks, Wang.

You're stayin' here with Eddie and Uncle Chu.

1,148, Jack.

All right, where's my truck? I'm outta here. Isn't your truck insured?

And it's gonna cost. She's got green eyes. Seriously? That's an extra.

And what the hell is Gracie Law doing here? She can't get enough of me.

Any of 'em savvy English? Hey, man. Who is this guy?

Are you crazy? Is that your problem? No, he means it, Jack.

Are you OK, Jack? Yeah.

Because the world's full of crazy people. The American girl knew something was up.

Call the police. You're not a one man army. Cops got better things to do than get killed.

Can I ask you a serious question? Absolutely not.

Cash or charge? Gosh! Cash, I guess.

Ch'ing ti. The God of the East. Who, him? This guy?

Cheers! This does what again, exactly?

Come on! How?

Countin' backwards? Not backwards. Downwards.

Course not. Come on!

Do you mean oil? I mean black blood of the earth.

Don't give up, Jack. OK. Let's just chew our way outta here!

Don't look, Jack! I already did.

Don't! Don't what?

Down. Lo Pan is down there. Down where?

Eddie? But he's... He's got a crush on you.

Eddie's the new maît re d' here. And a whole lot more.

Egg! Jack, come on!

Everybody got that? Ready?

From the airport. This morning, sure.

From there we can... Do you have a gun, I hope?

Go right, down that alley. Lords of Death! What alley?

Good afternoon, Mr Wong. Eddie Lee, meet my friend, Jack Burton.

Great start. It's the other way. The front door will get you nowhere.

Great work, Jack. Yeah.

He lives here? He owns the block. He's a rich guy.

He's got more enemies... He's got Miao Yin. I'm going!

He's helping us out. It has been almost two hours.

Hell of being what? The Chinese have a lotta hells.

Hell of boiling oil. You're kidding!

Here, let me hold that. A brave man likes to feel nature on his face.

Here, let me hold that. A brave man likes to feel nature on his face.

Hey, all right! Time for the medicine!

Hey, thanks. Wait a minute.

Hey, Wang Chi! Lookin' for us?

Hollow. Fuck it.

How are you gonna spring us? I have no idea.

How can you tell from here? Not her. She's trouble. Miao Yin.

How do you think I feel? I lost a whole girl! The Lords of Death were only on a joyride.

How? Yes, how? Help me out here.

Hurry! Move it, Egg!

I can take it. We don't know.

I can't see! It's OK. It's only temporary. Over here.

I don't get this at all. I thought... Shut up, Mr Burton!

I don't have that kind of money. I didn't hear that.

I don't make the policy around here. Come on, man! Give 'em a tour.

I don't think I've had the pleasure. Miss Gracie Law, Mr Egg Shen.

I don't wanna insult you. No, no. Go ahead.

I feel kind of invincible. Me too.

I got a very positive attitude about this. Good. Me too.

I gotta go somewhere. No, you don't.

I have a knife. A knife? He's 12 feet tall!

I know. It's an elevator. It only goes down. Yeah, look.

I need the money. I got near a thousand bucks here, Wang.

I think it was Lo Pan. Who?

I'd better locate the central junction box. I think it's down there.

I'd like to shoot that bastard. Not until he's married.

I'll follow you. You don't trust me? That makes me sad.

I'll try. Look stupid.

I'm feelin' like an outsider here. You are!

I'm going now, alone if I have to! Where? It's pouring out.

I'm gonna marry her, Jack. Oh, God!

I'm just a poor Chinese boy, you know? You own a restaurant. That's more than me.

I'm on board too then. Yeah, sure, kid.

If we reach Lo Pan... When we reach Lo Pan.

In there? Are you nuts? Go!

Indeed! Or check into a psycho ward.

It depends on how you look at it. The hell it does! So somebody

It reminds me of an old Chinese joke. Save it. I'll give you a lift. Get in.

It sounds like... Something breathing underwater?

It's all in the reflexes. It always works at home.

It's like some giant garbage disposal. I think it is, sort of.

It's me. Are you all right?

It's Miller time. You know what I say when it's Miller time?

Jack Burton? Yeah.

Jack next. Where does it go?

Lo Pan's. The Wing Kong Exchange. The Wing Kong Exchange?

Look into my eyes. No! Never!

Look, this Lo Pan I ran over... through... Has spirit medium powers.

Look. Yeah.

Lords of Death, Jack. OK, I'm goin' home. Keep your money.

Margo! Jack!

Master, you are flesh! I am?

Miao Yin. And the ultimate evil spirit.

My fiancée. The White Tiger's? Oh, God. I'm sorry.

My office. Sit down. You sleep in your office?

My office. Sit down. You sleep in your office?

My truck! Forget it!

Never mind me. We gotta get Lo Pan. Where is he?

No horseshit, Jack. No horseshit.

No, no. Yes.

No. Ah, sure. Easy come, easy go, Wang.

Not while I'm around. It's all up to you now, Jack.

Nothin' or double. Bullshit.

Nothin' or double. Why, man? Don't be stupid.

Now, if you’re protecting Jack Burton... You leave Jack Burton alone!

Of course it is. Then smart man gets it later.

Of course. Why?

Oh, God. Will you leave him alone? Mr Shen, please.

One and the same person, Jack. You know something you're not tellin' me.

Only an evil dream. Get to the goddamn point, Egg.

Real things? As real as Lo Pan.

Relax. I am relaxed.

Right. Here, Jack.

Safe. Where is she?

See you around, Burton. Never can tell.

Sewer? Yeah. Water comes in up there.

Shit! See?

Shit. How can I? I need the cash for Miao Yin.

Smart man calls the cops. Cops got better things to do than get killed.

So how long you been in the US of A? Three months.

So what are you gonna call it? I don't know.

So when the furies are out of balance... As they are in Lo Pan, who is cursed.

So who are we pickin' up? A girl. I don't wanna talk about it.

Sorry, I'm just thrilled to be alive. Yeah, sure. Let's go.

Sorry. Don't you know how to drive this thing?

tell me what is goin' on! The truth?

That was his funeral. It was a war, Eddie.

That's what this is. Then you've got a best seller on your hands.

Then he's flesh. Then it's too late.

Then that was your abandoned truck. Abandoned, like hell!

Then you have succeeded, Mr Burton. What, you?

There are not. Never were. So beggars can't be choosers.

They know your name. That's not good. Let's go!

They stole my truck? Take it easy, Jack. You're with friends.

This gets worse? Come on! 2,258 years ago

This is gonna take crackerjack timing. Total concentration. You ready, Jack?

This is salt water, Wang. And get your truck back!

This whole place is melting! Hello! Hello!

To sharpen their knives? I can't ask you to...

Too long. Let's go in. It's only been ten minutes.

Up or down? Up.

violence out of the question... Hold it! Slow down.

We'll find it for you. Damn right you will.

Were they real? Yeah. Dressed for Lo Pan's wedding.

What are you doin', Jack? I'll be right back.

What are you doing here? Don't panic. It's only me, Gracie Law.

What do we got? He can't count. Even!

What is it? A parade? A funeral.

What more can a guy ask for? The six demon bag!

What the hell...? They got a clubhouse where they hang out.

What was that? 6.9 on the Richter scale. Hang on!

What? That's an exaggeration, Jack, I promise.

What? What the hell...?

What's going on here? Some kind of...? Magic. The darkest magic.

What's happening, Wang? Chinese standoff.

What's wrong with my condition? Try standing downwind where I am.

When did this happen? It didn't, not like he says.

When I find her, I will marry her. Never!

Where are we, Wang? You are nowhere!

Where does this go? Up. To Lo Pan's office. It's cooler up there.

Where in the hell are we? Underneath Chinatown.

Where the hell are we? Come on, Jack.

Where's Eddie? Beats me.

Where's Gracie? On the floor next door. She's a wildcat.

Where's Jack? It's OK. Everybody relax. I'm here.

Where's Margo? I don't know.

Where's Miao Yin? Inside.

Where's the light coming from? The floor.

Who? Jack Burton. Me!

Why are you dressed like that? I was getting married.

Why didn't you tell me? I didn't want to alarm you, Uncle.

Wing Kong. Who wear red turbans?

with light comin' out of his mouth! Jack, please.

Would you consider jumping right into... Sure, but not with a man in your condition.

Yeah, sort of. It's hard to explain. Try real hard.

Yeah. No visitors.

Yeah. Thought so. Good. Do we drink it?

Yes. Absolutely.

Yes. She must be something extraordinary.

You are. Now we have to grab your fiancée...

You can't keep the press out. It's America. You're not going back there.

You did that, right? I guess so. I hope so.

You didn't. It only appeared that way. Right!

You mean like you've got on Gracie? Are you kidding? I just want my truck back.

You mean the truth? Of course.

You pay now. Where you gotta go? The airport.

you reach for the sky! Let's go!

...then the power in this flask will be our only hope

"Besides that, it's all in the reflexes."

"Have you paid your dues, Jack?" "Yes, sir, the cheque is in the mail."

"What the hell?"
