Chief Inspector Lee

If you're half-Chinese, I'm half-black. I'm your brother and I'm fly. You down with that, Snoopy? That's dope, isn't it?

Chief Inspector Lee

The ambassador is my responsibility!

Chief Inspector Lee

I'm not constipated anymore!

Chief Inspector Lee

You're glad we're not in Hong Kong. Phone book is twice as big.

Good girl!

4 scenes

For your information, I'm half-Chinese now. That's right, Lee. For the last three years, I've studied the ancient teaching of Buddha, earning two black belts in Wushu martial arts, spending every afternoon at the Garden Massage Parlor in Pico and Bundy. I'm half-Chinese, baby.

Lee

If you're half-Chinese, I'm half-black. I'm your brother and I'm fly. You down with that, Snoopy? That's dope, isn't it?

Sorry, Lee. You can't be black. There's a height requirement.

You know what I think? I think you feel sorry for this guy. Maybe Kenji didn't get away in L.A. Maybe you let him go.

Lee

The Yakuza killed his family in Tokyo. He was sent to China when he was seven. He was put in Chenzou, the orphanage where I grew up. We kept each other alive.

You protected each other and you still protecting him.

Lee

I called him Shoung Dih. He was like my brother. And then, I left him.

You were adopted. What choice did you have?

Lee

He ended up on the streets. You could never understand.

I understand. I got a brother, too. My little brother, Perry. We used to be best friends. Now we don't even speak. He thinks I tipped off the cops about the chicken fights in his garage. Can you believe that? My own brother think I'm a snitch. Just because my chicken lost in the semifinals. I didn't even really care.

Lee

Carter.

He had to fight a chicken that didn't make his weight. And he still went the distance. He had a lot of heart. And he was delicious.

Lee

It's best if I do this on my own. This fight's personal.

Look, I'm-a help you, man. And I'm-a tell you right now. Whatever Kenji's trying to tell you, it ain't true. He ain't your brother.

Lee

And you're not my brother.

Fine. I'm not your brother.

[To Lee, as they ride the elevator to their rooms]

It's all your fault. How come you didn't tell me about Kenji?

Chief Inspector Lee
[Clearly upset]

It was none of your business.

In cased you missed it, man; people are trying to kill me! I'm covered in shit and some French cops whooped my ass with some yellow pages, man. So don't tell me it ain't none of my business.

Chief Inspector Lee

You lucky we're not in Hong Kong. Phone book is twice as big.

Why didn't you tell me you had a brother, man?

[After Det. Revi kisses him cheek to cheek]

Hey man! You touch me again, you going to owe me dinner and a movie.

Detective Revi

Congratulations! It appears we have finally brought down The Triads.

Chief Inspector Lee
[Total disbelief]

We?

You didn't do shit!

Chief Inspector Lee

My butt still hurts!

Detective Revi
[Winking at Lee]

The Americans and the French need to work together in the spirit of brotherhood. Together, we can do anything. Anything!

He's right, Lee. Together we can do anything. You go this way...

Chief Inspector Lee

And I'll go that way. [They team punch Detective Revi]
