A scene from Bulletproof Monk 2003
Monk With No Name

So, this is the Golden Palace where you learn how to fight.

Kar

What the hell are you doing here?

Monk With No Name

I should have known from your sloppy technique.

Kar

This is my place, okay? Get out right now.

Monk With No Name

An enlightened man would offer a humble traveler shelter for the night and share a quiet conversation over a bowl of Cocoa Puffs.

Kar

Really? [Places bottle on counter, and walks up to Monk] Well, I guess I ain't that enlightened. 'Cause I was thinking more of kicking your freaky ass back to wherever the hell it comes from.

Monk With No Name
[Walk round Kar]

For someone who says he wants to kick my freaky ass, you do a lot of talking.

Kar
[Takes off jacket]

Really? Well, I warned you, old man. [Starts fighting match]

Monk With No Name
[After fighting match]

Got a little quickness in you, don't you?

Kar

Okay. Fine. Guess I can't make you get out.

Monk With No Name

I overheard people calling you Kar.

Kar

Spelled with a K. It's Cantonese.

Monk With No Name

Funny. You don't look Cantonese.

Kar

It means “family”, okay? I figure I never had one growing up, but from now on I'll never be without it.

Monk With No Name

I'm afraid you are mispronouncing your name, sir. It should sound more like “Ga”.

Kar

Look, it's my name, okay? I'll pronounce it however I want. What about you? What's your name?

Monk With No Name

I don't have one.

Kar

What do you mean?

Monk With No Name

You gave yourself a name. I gave mine up.
