00:20:31Give me a little warning next time, okay
00:20:50Trouble behind you you read me

00:22:04No, no
00:22:21You left there in a pretty big hurry I
00:22:25Thought you could handle it
00:22:27My only job here is taking care of the girl
00:22:30Well, you take your job too. Seriously. You should learn how to relax a little bit a
00:22:37Cop can screw up and still keep his job a
00:22:40Bodyguard always has his mission
00:22:43If he fails, he's not really a bodyguard, is he?
00:22:46I've sent for the headmaster
00:22:51It's only for two weeks, yes, it's just a leave of absence
00:22:55He's made me a prisoner in this place
00:22:58They gave me two weeks leave from the school because of him. He sent my hairstylist home
00:23:04I wanted to work out so he bought all this stuff for me James. I can't stand him anymore
00:23:09I want him to give me some peace
00:23:13Keep calm Michelle, but hang on
00:23:22Sir aha John, can you try and ease up on Michelle?
00:23:27Why would I ease up if I'm going to successfully protect miss young? I want to restrict the scope of her activities
00:23:35It's not much longer. I just want to be absolutely sure she's safe
00:23:40But if you're not happy with what I'm doing
00:23:42I'll just walk away
00:23:44Forget the contract. No, I'm happy John. I want you to stay Michelle is impossible. Sometimes isn't she?
00:23:52It isn't easy being protected it often is very stressful
00:23:56I'm sure she'll be alright. Let me have Michelle
00:24:00He wants to talk to you
00:24:07So
00:24:09No, actually I
00:24:12Now Michelle, how's this sound if John doesn't ease up by tomorrow you tell me I'll get you someone else

00:41:22That's right, I'm sorry
00:41:35I
00:41:40Thanks, you're welcome
00:41:55Why are you crying
00:41:59I'm sorry. What for for taking the gun or for something else?
00:42:05I once knew a boy named Yi Tong who studied at the Shaolin Temple
00:42:10He was given a new master when he was nine
00:42:13The master would forgive whatever he did
00:42:17No matter how severe as long as he tongue would say, I'm sorry
00:42:22instead of any kind of punishment
00:42:25the master would
00:42:27Just ask he tongue to say he was sorry. It didn't matter
00:42:31What he'd done?
00:42:33He tongue got very good at saying he was sorry
00:42:37One day he was playing with some lighted candles in the temple of the shining waters
00:42:43He dropped a candle and the next thing he knew there was a fire burning out of control
00:42:49He ran just as far as he possibly could
00:42:54Until something made him stop
00:42:58He returned hoping
00:43:01He would have a chance to
00:43:04Apologize to the teacher. He was sure that saying those words would redeem him
00:43:15There was no opportunity to say those words
00:43:18the fire
00:43:20made sure of that
00:43:23The master died in the flaming temple the boy stopped saying I'm sorry
00:43:31I
00:43:35Hold on John Chang or should I say Yi Tong?
00:43:42Just as the boy learned how to stop saying those words some of us need to learn how to say I'm sorry
00:44:00Hey
00:44:03Let go that hurts, what are you trying to do? Where's the body? Oh
00:44:13He's right in there in that drawer
00:44:26Hey, hey, you're not supposed to remove the bodies it's against the law
00:44:30Oh, no, no, no, no, no, wait take this to buy your silence
00:45:00I
00:45:30Oh

00:46:56You could be dead also
00:46:58As well as your boss
00:47:03The wounds are very strange the victims all died from a loss of blood I
00:47:09Don't know what kind of weapon caused this
00:47:12It's a Red Army bayonet
00:47:15The three edges cause rapid blood loss
00:47:18Thank you doctor
00:47:19Don't mention it
00:47:21They killed these guys to get to the corpse, but why I really don't know
00:47:27Anyway, thanks for taking him out. He would have killed me
00:47:31Is your arm? All right. Yeah, it hurts a little bit but not as much as dying would have yeah, come on
00:47:39I'm gonna have to ask you again
00:47:41Do you know this man?
00:47:43I'm warning you. Mr. Chu. You better answer. Wait, don't threaten my client. He has the right not to answer and you know it
00:47:51All right, then you'll be sorry

01:05:38You
01:06:08You
01:06:38You
01:06:49Hey, what's the matter
01:06:51Nothing. Why?
01:06:53Sure, John. You've been eating all night
01:06:56When something's bothering me, I smoke like a fiend
01:07:00What's bothering you?
01:07:03It's just money problems
01:07:06My son has a chance to study medicine in the u.s. But I can't afford to send him there
01:07:11I even gambled some of Ken's money away trying to raise the cash
01:07:17Hey, can you make any dough working as a bodyguard? Looks like it. I thought you were happy being a cop
01:07:24With more money I would be
01:07:28So why'd you join I
01:07:30Wanted to be a big hero, so I joined the force during my first year
01:07:34I interrupted a bank robbery in progress rescued four hostages and shot the robber
01:07:40So you did become a hero, right? Yeah, damn, right. They even gave me a medal
01:07:45It was when I first met my wife. Oh
01:07:49Hey
01:07:51Look at this
01:07:53That was when we were still together
01:07:56Before I screwed things up. Oh
01:07:58Boy I
01:08:01Spent so much time trying to live up to my reputation
01:08:06That I didn't have time for her
01:08:09And she found someone who did
01:08:11Yeah
01:08:13She sure did
01:08:14Some guy with a corner office started buying her things, you know
01:08:18How am I supposed to compete with that on my salary?
01:08:22I thought maybe she was just looking for a little attention. So I said to her it's him or me
01:08:29Ah
01:08:29She chose the corner office
01:08:33Why couldn't you talk to her
01:08:36that's my point that women like to be talked to I
01:08:42Was too busy being the quiet hero
01:08:46Which reminds me?
01:08:48You're up the same tree
01:08:51You
01:08:54Know opportunity it disappears before you can ever stop it. How many chances do you suppose men like us are gonna get to be happy?
01:09:04All the kung fu in the world isn't gonna help when it comes to women. Yeah
01:09:10well
01:09:12All I can say is you've got to take your shot
01:09:17Otherwise, you'll regret it
01:09:20What about my responsibilities?
01:09:22Sure
01:09:24It would be nice. I
01:09:27Bet it would be much better than that, but don't try and you'll never know
01:09:31Hey, it's her
01:09:36She's calling you no the pager gets stuck
01:09:41You're the one who's stuck and you know it so please go talk to that girl right now
01:09:50Oh
01:10:20Oh
01:10:50That's just how you looked when you shot my brother only this time you're the one that's gonna die so get ready
01:11:20Oh
01:11:50I
01:12:20I
01:12:51Oh
01:12:53Charlie take this money. Go on bet it all number three in the six
01:13:00Forget it Ken, you know, I can't do that. Come on. It's for your son

01:26:33Fester
01:26:35Mr. Chong John Chang was trained to take a bullet you duck because that's the natural instinct
01:26:41There's no reason for you to feel guilty.
01:26:49This is from Comrade Chang to Sergeant Lau.
01:27:00Step on it, okay?
01:27:04We're going to be late.
01:27:05You could get authorization for Chang to stay in Hong Kong.
01:27:08With all your money, you could pull the strings.
01:27:21Charlie, this is just between you and me.
01:27:24It's for your son's education.
01:27:26No more gambling, okay?
01:27:31No more gambling.
01:27:33Yeah.

01:27:39Stop right there.
01:27:40Wait!
01:27:45I have a permit.
01:27:46Talk to the border guard.
01:27:56I have written authorization for Mr. Chang to remain in Hong Kong.
01:27:59Mr. Chang wishes to return to Beijing.
01:28:04No.
01:28:09He left you this.
01:28:10He's not coming back.
