148. There's no business

149. so they spend their time exercising.

151. Before Mr. Chen passed away,

152. they learned karate to handle the villains.

154. I'm not interested in foreign martial arts.

155. It doesn't matter what style if you can use your body well

172. Have you learned any boxing?

173. Ah Lung came from Hong Kong to help us.

174. He's an expert Chinese boxer.

175. I'm just a novice.

176. Chinese boxing? I understand it's like dancing.

177. But it sadly lacks power?

178. You lack power when you haven't mastered the fundamentals

179. Right.

180. How then do you develop power?

181. By putting the hip into it.

182. Right.

183. Will you demonstrate how to put the hip into it?

184. I'm afraid I'll hurt someone.

185. What are you afraid of?

186. They're wearing protective padding.

187. They won't get hurt.

188. We've guests coming. Change and get to work.

189. Hurry!

190. Come on, let's go.

191. Change and get cracking!

192. Quen, where's the toilet?

193. Over there. It's labelled in English.

194. Thank you!

195. Out, get the hell out of here, now!

196. Come on!

197. Get out!

198. Why?

199. That's why!

200. What's your decision?

201. Uncle Wang.

202. Yes.

203. Come quick, they're here again!

204. Stop it!

205. All right!

206. If you don't answer by tonight,

207. don't blame us for getting rough.

208. Please help us out,

209. put in a good word for us.

210. Give us a few more days to think it over.

211. You've been delaying a long time.

212. Are you or are you not selling?

213. Hey, don't you hit anyone.

214. Don't fight please! We'll only wreck our own things.

215. Remember, by tonight you'd better have an answer for us

216. Let's go!

217. Sorry!

218. Watch where you're going next time.

219. You don't even know a word of English.

220. Why did my Uncle send you here?

221. They're young and headstrong,

222. Don't blame them, everything will be all right.

223. Lucky they weren't armed today.

224. In broad daylight?

225. They wouldn't dare use a gun in public.

226. If Uncle Wang hadn't stopped them...

227. I'd have used karate on them!

228. You can talk!

229. What good is your karate?

230. It's still better than Chinese boxing

231. People shove you out of the way

232. and you even apologised!

233. Sit down, sit down, please!

234. May I help you?

235. Can you help me?

236. Sure!

237. I'd like some Chinese spareribs.

239. Do you need me to tell you

240. what Chinese spareribs are?

241. Well let me show you!

242. What are you doing?

243. You know what we are doing, don't they, fellas?

244. You all should have left this restaurant!

245. Get Uncle Wang out here to help.

246. Stay calm. Don't wreck our place.

247. It's no use.

248. Do you want to step outside!

249. Sure!

250. Good!

251. Go...

252. Ah Lung, you...?

253. Let's go!

254. Jimmy... Jimmy...

255. Chinese boxing?

256. Damn! They think this is Chinese boxing

257. If I knew Chinese boxing

258. I'd give them a good taste of it!

259. I'll go!

264. Ah Lung, bravo!

265. Magnificent!

266. Excellent!

267. Don't be overjoyed.

268. There'll be more trouble after this.

269. With Ah Lung's skill

270. those men will think twice now.

271. You don't understand.

272. It's hard to beat local hoodlums.

273. This is their territory.

274. We must be careful.

275. Let's be more patient.

276. More patience! Man, our Dragon is here!

277. You'd be wise to heed my advice.

278. Is that so?

279. Calm down, everyone.

280. Ah Lung, it's late, you must be tired.

281. Let's turn in.

282. Want some supper?

283. No, I must get up early for training.

284. I hear it's easy to buy a gun here?

285. Yes, any local citizen can get a license.

286. What are you doing?

287. Making darts.

288. Darts?

289. What's the matter? Want to eat?

305. We couldn't see clearly

306. Will you show us again?

307. Please show us.

308. Go on then!

313. Be quiet and let's watch, okay?

314. So shut up!

315. Step back!

316. Are you all right?

317. Everything all right?

318. Fantastic!

319. Ah Lung, will you be my teacher?

320. You said physical training is useless.

321. So why are you doing it now?

322. I never liked karate.

323. That's Chinese boxing, you dig?

324. We'll give up karate.

325. Let's learn from Ah Lung.

326. Right!

334. What was that?

335. He wants us to see his boss.

336. Shut up! Now move!

337. See you tomorrow.

338. All of you are good for nothing!

339. You! Didn't you have a gun?

340. What I like, I get

341. and I want the restaurant.

342. Yes boss! Yes boss!

343. Yes boss! Yes boss! You've wasted enough time!

344. But, I... I always do my best.

345. Then why did you fail?

346. They're getting help from a man called Tang Lung.

347. A man? Only one man?

348. But this man knows Chinese kung fu.

350. Good morning. Sit down. Eat.

351. You won't often find this in Rome, how does it taste?

354. And you?

355. Want some more?

365. All right. He'll be back soon.

366. Where is he now?

367. These are famous relics of the past.

368. Over there... what is it?

369. Our slum is full of these wrecks.

370. Please.

371. A king built these gardens for his queen.

372. It took a lot of time and money.

373. They must have been really in love.

374. Are you married?

375. How do you like the palace?

376. Such a big place is a waste.

377. In Hong Kong I would build a skyscraper and collect rent.

378. I'd better return to the restaurant.

379. Close the door.

380. You better cool it, baby.

381. Bring him down!

382. Chinese kung fu?

383. The boss means well.

384. He appreciates talent

385. and he knows you're strong. Oh, what rippling muscle!

386. We don't want to harm you.

387. Here's a ticket back to Hong Kong.

388. Better to stay out of trouble.

389. All right! Take him away

390. but be careful with the gun in public.

391. Yes boss! Come on, let's go!

392. Go to see if anybody around?

393. Put your hands down! Put your hands down!

396. Get him!

397. Get him!

398. Let's get him!

399. Get him!

400. Get him!

401. Miss Chen, quit while you're ahead.

402. You'd better say yes.

403. We're offering you a good deal.

404. Hello!

405. Tell him.

406. We don't want any more trouble, or else I will retaliate.

407. He told us not to come and cause any more trouble.

408. Move them out.

409. Hurry up and pick up everybody.

410. Hold it, that's a customer.

411. Welcome!

412. Welcome!

413. Serve our guest properly.

414. See? I told you to be patient.

415. You should bear the responsibility for this.

416. What should we do now?

417. We'll fight to the end.

418. This is no joke.

419. I know, but...

420. I know how you feel

421. but we must think of Tang Lung.

422. They'll do what they say.

423. You mean...

424. Keep him under cover for awhile.

425. Tomorrow is Chinese New Year's If there's trouble...

426. I don't know if he'll agree?

427. I know he's stubborn

428. You must persuade him.

429. Without him, we'll be forced to sell the restaurant.

430. We'll have to see.

431. We may have to cooperate.

432. But we mustn't sell the place.

433. Let me decide.

434. All right.

435. Better go and talk to Lung.

436. Is your restaurant open tomorrow?

437. Good, we'll go to the countryside and practise.

438. Remind Quen to bring the protective padding.

439. Firecrackers?

440. It's banned in Hong Kong. There must be Chinese living nearby.

441. You must leave Rome for awhile.

442. Leave Rome?

443. We don't want you to go,

444. especially me, but you must.

445. Do you understand me?

446. I don't understand.

447. Ah Lung, why won't you...

448. Are you afraid of fire crackers?

449. I'll take you to the airport.

450. Why?

451. Those men want you...

452. My duty is to help you.

453. I know, but you must leave

454. They intend to kill you

455. Kill me? Who?

456. Time's up. Let's go!

457. It's too noisy. I'll close the window.

458. Stay here, don't move about.

459. Miss Chen!

460. Hello! May I help you?

461. Three... five...

462. Hello, what was that Sir, can you please repeat that?

463. Hello... hello... hello...

464. Don't waste time.

465. Here's the agreement of sale.

466. Sign it!

467. No!

468. Why be so stubborn?

469. The boss has been nice to you.

470. If this knife crosses your face,

471. you'll look ugly.

472. So don't make our boss mad.

473. I won't sign!

474. It's for your own good.

475. We'll get the restaurant sooner or later anyway.

476. Tang Lung will soon be here.

477. Tang Lung? You think he will come?

478. He's reporting to our Lord in Heaven!

479. Be careful.

480. The mastermind is over there.

481. You're crazy!

482. Let me tell you.

483. He doesn't understand Chinese.

484. Let's go.

485. I've thought of a great way to handle that Tang Lung.

486. Do unto other's as you would have them do unto you!

487. Well, among my friends

488. there is one Japanese martial artist

489. and one European martial artist

490. They are both strong

491. but the problem is they are from different schools.

492. I'm afraid they might not cooperate with each other.

493. Money will buy cooperation.

494. If money is not a problem.

495. Then I suggest we call America for Colt.

496. Is this Colt good?

497. Is Colt good? He is America's best!

498. You better pray that you don't fail this time!

499. He will beat Tang Lung.

500. I'll bet my life on it.

501. Operator!

502. I'd like to call America.

503. Yes, A-me-ri-ca!

504. Happy New Year!

505. Happy New Year!

506. Thank you, Uncle Wang...

507. I didn't expect traditional lucky money abroad.

508. Uncle Wang gives us lucky money yearly.

509. This is my best New Year ever.

510. First, we successfully defended our restaurant,

511. and second, we have Ah Lung with us,

512. who's also our teacher.

528. I came to bring greetings.

529. It was our fault. I must apologize.
