[CRASHING]
[IN CHINESE] Hello? Hello?
[CRASHING]
Hello? Hello?
[BANGING]
[CRASHING]
[SHOTS BOUNCING OFF]
[GUN CLICKS]
[BANGING AND CRASHING]
[SCREAMS]
Hong Kong's a great
city, isn't it, Race?
Yeah, it's a
great city, all right,
but I sure wish
they'd fix their streets.
Well, I guess we've
seen enough for one day.
We'll head back.
[IN CHINESE] Take us back!
Hey, Dad, Race!
Gangway! Here we come!
DR. QUEST: Jonny! Slow down!
It's okay, Dad,
our driver said I could try it,
but, boy, never thought
these things could go so fast!
Yippee!
Uh-oh!
HADJI: The brakes, Jonny!
Use the brakes!
Oh, no! Oh, no!
The brakes, Jonny!
I can't!
It won't work!
Hang on!
Ah-Ah-Achoo!
Ah-Ah-Ah-Achoo!
Better step on it, Race,
so we can get them
into some dry clothes.
Right, doctor.
I'm sorry, Dad.
Me too.
Being sorry isn't enough.
Your prank means repairing
or replacing one pedicab
and placating the driver.
You're confined to your quarters
till further notice.
Aw, gee.
You mean we'll miss the
Chinese New Year's celebration?
We'll see, we'll see.
[GONG CLANGS]
[DRUMMING]
Wow, what a scary dragon!
It sure is,
but, boy, this noise!
It sounds like
the Fourth of July!
[FUSE CRACKLING]
[POPS]
[BARKS]
[GROWLS]
Uh-oh!
Bandit, drop it.
You'll get hurt.
Hey! No, Bandit!
Drop them!
[GROWLING]
HADJI: Come here!
JONNY: Get away
from there! Hurry!
[FIRECRACKERS
BANGING, BANDIT BARKING]
That'll teach you.
I don't think he
likes firecrackers.
[EXPLODING]
What a leap!
Right into your arms.
Golly, Bandit, I didn't know
you could jump so high.
[WHIMPERS]
Let's go, boys.
Time to have some dinner.
Boy, this is good!
It sure is! I was starved!
WAITRESS: Excuse please.
You like I take picture?
Make very fine souvenir.
Sure, why not?
Shoot.
[BARKING]
RACE: Will you look at that ham.
He can smell a
camera a mile away!
WAITRESS: Hold it, please.
The picture will
be ready shortly.
Ho Sing. VOICE: Quickly.
The picture.
[SPEAKING CHINESE]
Dr. Quest.
JONNY: Come on, Bandit.
Time to stop
admiring your picture
and get to sleep.
Yes, and don't keep us
awake tonight with your snoring.
[BOYS LAUGH]
[BANDIT GRUMBLES]
Good night, Hadji.
Good night, Jonny,
and Happy New Year!
[GROWLING]
Jonny
Jonny!
Huh?
What's wrong with Bandit?
Oh, he's probably
having a nightmare.
Dreaming about
those firecrackers.
Yeah, that must be it.
Go to sleep, Bandit.
[BOAT ENGINE STARTS]
But what happened to Dad?
I don't know.
Shouldn't we call the police?
No, Hadji,
that's just what we can't do.
Read this.
"Do not call police
or Dr. Quest die!"
What can we do then?
[RACE OPENS DOOR]
You boys stay aboard.
I think I know where I
can get some answers.
Race, you're not
very complimentary.
You've been in Hong
Kong three days,
and the first time I see you
is when Dr. Quest
get himself kidnapped.
Do you think I had
something to do with it?
No, Jade, I didn't say that,
but you'd never turn
down an opportunity
to add to your bank account.
We both know that.
I have expensive tastes, Race,
but I almost never
kidnap my friends,
for money, that is.
Okay, so you had
nothing to do with it,
but not much happens around here
that you don't know about.
I want Dr. Quest back
alive and unharmed.
Now, how about it?
Okay, Race,
I'll lend a hand, but
not for old times' sake,
it'll be expensive.
It figures.
I told you, I have
expensive tastes.
Give me an hour.
One hour, I'll be back.
Oh, and Jade
Race, would
Idouble-crossdoublecross an old friend?
[SPEAKING CHINESE]
[SPEAKING CHINESE]
[TIRES SCREECH]
But, Jade, baby,
would I lie to you?
You'd lie to your own ancestors.
Honest, Jade,
I got a real bad memory.
I can't remember nothing.
Will this help your memory?
Now, that's real strange.
It's beginning to
come back to me.
There was a snatch tonight,
but I don't know, it's
getting hazy again.
Perhaps more of this
will blow the haze away.
Yeah.
Well, it helps.
Ah, yeah! Chu Sing Ling.
What about Chu Sing Ling?
Well, he
Gee, I think it's
getting hazy again.
No, it's getting clear!
Chu Sing Ling is
entertaining Dr. Quest
at Moy Tu Island.
Why?
I don't know, baby, honest!
I'm telling you all I know!
Quest is with Chu
Sing Ling right now.
Impossible!
Oh, come now, Dr. Quest.
A talented scientist
like yourself
never uses the word impossible,
and besides, I have the proof!
Proof? Certainly!
I am not talking theory,
Doctor, I am talking fact.
Watch!
[SPIDER SQUEAKING]
[GILA MONSTER ROARING]
You cannot deny
what your eyes can see.
Incredible!
Yes, incredible,
but still a fact.
Look, Dr. Quest.
Arachnid araneid,
the common spider.
One exposure to my bacteria,
and this little fellow
will grow as large
as his, uh, brother
in that cage
[SQUEAKING]
who, by the way,
is still growing.
Surely, Dr. Chu,
you realize the hazards
you are creating.
Oh, quite, Dr. Quest, quite.
Your bacteria has
the potential destructive power
of the atom bomb.
Right again, Doctor.
And you're not taking
the proper precautions.
The residue from your
bacteria culture tanks
is draining into those marshes
and contaminating the sea.
Who can tell what monsters
you're breeding out there.
That is one of the problems
you have been
brought here to solve.
Meaning what?
Meaning, doctor,
control of the growth cells.
I must have the answer.
I must know!
And you must realize
I can have nothing to
do with your mad scheme.
I understand your
refusal, Doctor,
and I am prepared to
persuade you to
change your mind.
[ROARING]
DR. QUEST: Nothing you could think
of would make me change my mind.
You will change.
Do not forget, Dr. Quest,
my people invented
the art of persuasion.
KA LONG: Ah, Mr. Bannon.
Miss Jade, uh, not here.
She was to return in an hour.
Now, where is she?
She come back,
leave note for you.
Then she go.
"Will deliver Quest.
Relax the price is right."
All right, where'd
she go, Ka Long?
Ka Long not tell.
But you must tell me.
Jade is in great danger.
You can trust me, Ka Long.
Miss Jade go
Yes? Yes?
Moy Tu Island.
Moy Tu Island.
Thanks, Ka Long,
and don't worry!
I'll bring her back.
[BOAT ENGINE REVS]
JONNY: Race! Race!
What did you find out?
Any news?
Yes, bad news.
Your father is being held
on an island south of here.
RACE: I'm going after him.
Well, I'm going with you!
And I.
No, it's too risky.
Sorry, boys.
Now, gas up the hydrofoil
while I pick up some gear.
Aye, aye, sir.
[ROARING]
You still do not
care for my pets,
Dr. Quest?
[SPIDER SQUEAKING]
This is mad, Chu.
Release me, and we'll
destroy these monsters
before it's too late.
No, Doctor, they will
live, but you will die
if you do not
decide to cooperate.
I will give you three
hours to change your mind.
I won't be changing
my mind, Chu,
in three hours,
or in three years.
[ROARING]
CHU: The bars to these cages
can be opened automatically.
[SQUEAKING]
I will set the automatic
control for three hours.
When you decide to cooperate,
just call the guard
who will be outside this door,
and you will be released.
You already have my answer.
You're mad, Chu.
Mad!
Very well,
then die the death your
stubbornness demands.
The choice is yours.
[SQUEAKING AND BANGING BARS]
[ROARING]
Okay, boys, we're here.
Jonny, Hadji, we're here!
You can come out now!
You too, Bandit.
[BARKING]
How did you know we were here?
Yeah, Race, we
didn't make a sound.
You've pulled this
stowaway bit so often,
I've come to expect it.
Besides, I know how you feel.
JONNY: We just wanted to help.
I know.
Well, I'm glad you're here!
Yeah?
RACE: Sure. I can use you! How?
To stay here and guard the
boat, and keep out of trouble!
[FROGS CROAKING
AND CRICKETS CHIRPING]
[SNARLING]
[SNARLING]
[SQUEAKING]
[SNARLING AND SQUEAKING]
I just don't believe it.
HADJI: Gosh, what is that noise?
JONNY: I don't know,
but it sure sounds awful.
[WHIMPERS]
Shh! Quiet, Bandit.
I think he is
worried about Race.
Quiet, Bandit.
Bandit! Bandit!
JONNY: Come back here!
[BARKING]
HADJI: Bandit!
Come on, Hadji.
But Race said
Look, Hadji, Dad's
in there somewhere,
Race has gone in,
and now, Bandit's gone.
I can't just stay
here and do nothing.
Okay, let's go.
[IN CHINESE] An
intruder! An intruder!
[WOODEN BEAMS SNAP]
[CRASHING]
[GUNSHOTS]
The shots came
from those buildings!
Sounds like Race is
taking on a whole army!
Let's go!
Wait, look!
I'm having a nightmare,
and I'm not even asleep.
[BARKING]
It's Bandit!
He's over there!
Come on, Hadji!
[IN CHINESE] Let's take a look!
Find the stranger,
he's somewhere!
We've got to help Race!
I know, but how?
The bulldozer!
Can you drive one?
I don't know. I never tried!
[SHOUTING IN CHINESE]
[EXPLOSION]
Sounds like you're
having trouble out there.
But too late to
save you, Dr. Quest.
You have five minutes
before those cages open,
to change your mind.
[SQUEAKING]
They seem anxious, don't they?
[ROARING]
You're wasting your time, Chu.
I won't change my mind.
[CHAIN RATTLING]
[ENGINE APPROACHING]
One side, Race,
we're coming through!
Be my guest.
[GATE SMASHES]
Good work, boys!
Now, take that bulldozer
down by the pier
where you'll be safe.
That's an order!
Right, Race!
Time's up, Dr. Quest!
I will leave you
alone with my pets.
RACE: Not so fast, pal.
Don't you know it's bad manners
to leave your
guests all tied up?
RACE: Untie him!
I was beginning to think
you might not make it, Race.
So did I, doctor, the
traffic was rather heavy.
RACE: Maybe your host
would like to trade
places with you.
DR. QUEST: Not a bad idea, Race.
[IN CHINESE] Hands up! Hands up!
You made a serious
mistake, my friend,
when you overlooked the guard.
Now you can both stay
and entertain our little pets.
We'll be leaving you now, and
[THUD]
I'm disappointed in you, Race.
I left you a note
saying I'd handle this.
You sure have, Jade.
Good work.
Good work, nothing.
Wait till you get my bill.
[GLASS BREAKS]
It's Chu!
He got away!
We'd better get out of here too.
We're locked in!
Look out!
[ROARING]
Quick, the window! Out that way!
[CRASHING]
Someone here call a cab?
[GUNSHOTS]
We'll never make it back
to the hydrofoil, Jonny.
JADE: Head for the pier,
we'll borrow Chu's speedboat.
Good thinking, Jade!
Keep up the speed, Doctor.
We're almost out of rifle range!
[SPLASHING]
But not out of cannon range!
[CANNON FIRING]
They're gaining on us, doctor!
DR. QUEST: I'm
giving it all I've got!
Wow, that was close!
Hey, what's that?
[ROARING]
[IN CHINESE] Look out! Look out!
[ROARING]
It's unbelievable!
[GUNFIRE]
[SCREAMS]
No! No!
No! No!
He's walking right into
those high voltage wires.
[SCREAMS]
Well, that's the end
of Chu Sing Ling.
And the end of a horrible
experiment, I hope.
If it hadn't been for Jade,
we might never have
gotten off that island.
Jade, we're in your debt.
You'll get a bill.
Well, I don't have
any money with me,
but how about this
for a down payment?
That's a good
lesson for us, Hadji.
When we grow up,
everything's gonna
be strictly cash.
You said it.
