18. All right. Let's get down to business. Did you check the tunnel?

19. All right. Don't be frightened.

20. Not with that jukebox. nobody will ever hear you.

21. I went through the tunnel this morning.

22. Let's make sure of this.

23. Here's the map I drew according to what that guy told me.

24. This is where you live.

25. According to this guy. There's a stairway from a room of your place into the tunnel...

26. then another stairway up from the tunnel to the second floor of the old man's house.

27. There's a ladder leading downward from the back room...

28. and a stairway leading up to Lu Sung's apartment.

29. A tunnel runs under the street. but it's not straight.

30. There are curves in it.

31. - Well. It's clear so we can get through it. - Oh. yes.

32. There are still some candles in the stone walls. In case we need light.

35. Don't like these daylight jobs. Too dangerous.

43. Not a chance. It's a cinch.

44. Well. I wouldn't want anybody to get hurt.

46. The shop will be closed up. All we want is to get him downstairs...

47. so we can duck through the tunnel. get up to the apartment. Grab the jade.

48. Clean and simple. Nobody will get hurt.

49. Nobody but Lu Sung.

50. Don't start worrying about him. You said he was gonna give it away.

51. I know. But giving it to a museum is different than having it stolen.

52. It ain't gonna do nobody any good sitting in a museum.

53. This way. You get a chance to lay your hands on a pot full of dough.

54. And after you start you and this niece of his off right...

55. - ... what about that? - If I didn't feel the jade belonged to Lily...

56. I would have no part of this.

57. Sure. You got a good reason.

58. As a matter of fact. You're not even stealing it if it belongs to her.

59. She's your girl, you're gonna marry her. Right in the family.

60. It's not as simple as all that. It's still stealing.

61. But I said I'd do it, and I will.

62. You got nothing to worry about.

63. It'll have a lot to worry about. But that's my business.

64. Now. look. Kid...

65. don't start getting the shakes. I told you. You got nothing to worry about.

66. We'll get in there fast and grab it. They won't know what happened.

67. - No cops. No guns. No nothing. - Are we finished?

68. Long as you got it straight.

69. You come to my place tomorrow afternoon at 2:30.

70. - That's all I have to know. - All right.

128. Go ahead. Donovan.

129. Come on. come on. Get up.

130. Lily-

131. She's fainted. You didn't have to do this.

132. Don't be a fool. She saw us.

133. Okay. Send out a 33 emergency...

134. and tell Hill to have two men from the bomb squad ready to leave with me.

135. - Yes, sir. - All right. Miss Lane...

136. I'm coming with two men from the bomb squad.

137. Thank you. Inspector Henderson.

138. He'll be down in a few minutes with two men from the bomb squad.

139. Don't worry.

140. - Inspector Henderson's on his way down. - Oh. good.

141. - How can you find anything in this rubble? - Found this much.

142. Couldn't have been a very big bomb.

143. Big enough.

144. Lu Sung. What is this? What happened?

145. A bomb was thrown through the window.

146. That must have been what woke me up. I was taking a nap. I live across the street.

147. This is the manager of my shop. Harry Wong.

148. Miss Lane. Mr. Kent of the Metropolis Daily Planet.

149. - How do you do? - How do you do?

150. This is a terrible thing. Who could have done it?

151. Whoever did it should be drawn and quartered.

152. I think I'll run up and see how Lily is.

153. I will go with you.

154. Mr. Wong. I don't suppose you have any idea who might have done this.

155. If I searched my mind for a century. It would do no good.

156. Lu Sung has no enemies.

157. He is the most beloved man in all of Chinatown.

158. Ask any of them.

159. So many beautiful things. broken and shattered.

160. Can you estimate the loss. Mr. Wong?

161. That would be difficult.

162. Fortunately, the one piece of great value. the Kuan-yin jade...

163. Lu Sung has always kept under lock and key in his apartment.

164. - However. There is— - Clark. Come up here quickly.

165. - What happened? - She isn't anywhere in the apartment.

166. - Who isn't? - Lily. Lu Sung's niece.

167. I left her here on the couch. When Lu Sung and I got up here. She was gone...

168. and so was the Kuan-yin jade.

169. What happened. Mr. Kent?

170. The Kuan-yin jade is missing.

171. And so is Mr. Sung's niece.

172. Excuse me. I'd better go down.

173. Now. look. Inspector. You've got to be reasonable about this.

174. What do you mean. Reasonable?

175. If Wong's a suspect. Let's question him. What are we playing?

176. You don't understand. There's more to this than just a robbery.

177. You're telling me. Look at that mess.

178. I don't mean the bomb. Lu Sung's niece may be involved.

179. So what? Good grief.

180. When the department doesn't solve a crime in minutes. The papers cut me into ribbons.

181. Wait. Wait. Wait. Here he comes.

182. Mr. Wong. I'd like to have you meet Inspector Henderson.

183. - How do you do? - Mr. Wong is the manager of this shop.

184. Lu Sung obviously is in good hands.

185. I'm going to get the clerks to help me clean up.

186. - Well. Can't you use the phone? - Well. They have no telephones.

187. - I don't know. - I think that's all right. Inspector.

188. Mr. Wong will be glad to answer questions when he returns.

189. - Most certainly. Sir. - Okay.

190. Thank you.

191. You notice the bamboo dust on his shirt?

192. I wouldn't know bamboo dust from feathers.

193. Well. Here's some.

194. There's plenty more in that box upstairs.

195. Wong had no opportunity to get any of this stuff on him...

196. unless he was carrying that jade figurine. The problem is, how did he get to it?

197. It'll lay you 10-1 the girl's involved.

198. You could be right at that. Come on. let's go on up.

199. You don't have to be afraid of me. girlie.

200. - Lily. - Don't touch me.

201. The Kuan-yin belongs to you. You are Lu Sung's only living relative.

202. He had no right giving it to a museum.

203. Thief.

204. No. Lily.

205. The Kuan-yin belongs to you by heritage.

206. I did it only to get money so we could get married and go away.

207. Come on. she'll get over it.

208. You're responsible for this. You said there would be no trouble.

209. That you would pay me before the police arrived.

210. Did I know she was gonna be in the room?

211. What did you wanna do. leave her to tip the cops?

212. Then pay me and go. I've had enough of this.

213. It'll pay you when I get this thing where it's safe.

214. You promised to pay me on delivery.

215. That's before she messed up the caper. I gotta get this thing where I can sell it.

216. - What good is it to me unless—? - Then give it back. I'll return it and confess.

217. Too late for that now. Sonny boy.

218. Give it back!

219. Let's face it. Your niece must be mixed up in this. It figures.

220. I will not believe it.

221. Then where is she? People just don't disappear.

222. - Inspector, I don't see the point in all this. - Oh. you don't. Eh?

223. Someone tosses a bomb through a window. a statue disappears...

224. - ... and you don't see any point. - Wait—

225. Suppose you stick to reporting. Kent. and I'll take care of the police work.

226. - Or would you like my badge? - I'm trying to tell you—

227. I know what you're trying to say.

228. You've already said too much.

229. You talked me into letting that Wong character get out of here.

230. He's been gone 15 minutes.

231. - Where does he live? - Harry Wong?

232. - Yes. - Across the street. Number 17.

233. Don't anybody leave. I'm not through.

234. - Mind if I come with you. Inspector? - What good would it do if I did?

235. The police. Open up.

236. Let me try. Inspector.

237. No one in there.

238. I hear something.

239. What is it?

240. Be right back.

241. Lily couldn't have done it, Lois.

242. - She just couldn't. - Of course she didn't.

243. The Kuan-yin!

244. - Why. you dirty— - Shut up.

245. You'll get the same thing. Maybe worse.

246. Now lead the way downstairs.

247. And remember, I'm right behind you.

248. Go on. Go on.

249. Turn left when you get out of the store.

250. Don't bleat, or I'll kill you.

251. Move. Move!

252. Stand back. Please.

253. What's going on here?

254. Good grief.

255. Inspector. You better have someone get down there and shut off the water.

256. - What's the matter? - Miss Lane!

257. Don't come in here. Or I'll shoot her.

258. - Get more men. - We can handle this.

259. - Just keep the crowd back. - Go ahead. Move them back.

260. All right. Come on.

261. Don't worry. We'll get you out of this.

262. He's got the Kuan-yin jade.

263. - It'll make a deal with you. - No deals.

264. - Come out with your hands up. - Wait a minute.

265. What's your deal?

266. Don't make any deals. He may have killed Lu Sung.

267. Shut up!

268. It'll give up the jade and let her walk out if I go free.

269. - Is he kidding? - Hold it.

270. We'll have to think it over.

271. You've got five minutes.

272. Watch him.

273. Who's the guy in the circus suit?

274. He's Superman.

275. This time he's not so super. Is he?

276. Wait and see.

277. Who told you about the underground tunnel. Wong?

278. I knew about the tunnel because I knew about the trap door in my apartment.

279. - But I didn't know where it led. - In the days of the Tong Wars...

280. all Chinatown had underground tunnels. Inspector.

281. But I have been living in this house for 16 years...

282. and did not know of this one. nor the sliding wall.

283. - Who told you where the tunnel led. Wong? - Greer.

284. He learned it from the man who built this house.

285. He also learned that the tunnel could be flooded with water.

286. What did Greer plan to do with the jade statue?

287. He said he would take it to England and sell it.

288. How much were you supposed to get?

289. I'm too ashamed to even talk about it.

290. It'll write everything out. And I'll sign it.

291. - Now. please take me out of here. - Sit down. Wong.

292. - You'll testify against Greer. Won't you? - I'll do anything you wish.

293. Anything to make amends to Lu Sung. to Lily and to myself.

294. Look at me. Wong.

295. I'm gonna do something I've never done in 20 years on the police force.

296. I'm going to act as the judge and jury.

297. I'm not going to arrest you.

298. Why. inspector. What are you trying to do. become a Superman?
