Well just call this a loan, then.
Hey, Sam, why don’t you just let me work?
-That way... -No. Take the money.
Hey, come on.
Isn’t there some kind of work?
Afraid not.
I dont want it.
Hmm.
Since you insist...
How ‘bout...

The American sailors are going to take it out on me.
Just dont go quitting right now.
You know, we had a deal.
You asked for work, and I gave you work.
You have to keep up your end of the bargain,
or theyll tear my place apart and me along with it.

Remember, you gave me your word.
Go right! Right, right, right, right!
Right, right, right, right!
Stop fighting!

-Whoo-hoo! -You’re some sparring partner.
You kicked ass.
Thats what Im talking about. Ha ha!
Moaning
Hey, Jet, look at me.
How bad are you hurt?
Im really sorry about all this.
Hey, you don’t have to come tomorrow.

Hello. Come in. Please.
Okay.
Am I disturbing you?
Not really.
I just had to see you.
I wanted to ask...
Are you going to spar here again?
Yes. I said I would, so I will.
Anyway, Sam already paid me.
He’s looking out for me, right?
Hes just a puppet for Bailey.
Sams not on your side. He set you up.
Sam?
They wanted you to act as his sparring partner.
They made the plans yesterday.
Well...
I have my own plan now.
-Oh, yeah. How’s that? -You were unstoppable, Bailey.
Heres my left jab.
Hey, come on, now. You want some?
Come on!
That guy never knew what hit him.
He didnt know whether he was coming or going.
Captain, what did you hit me for?
You son of a bitch.
You want to fight this guy,
let’s see you fight him like a man.
No, Jet. Can’t you just let it go?
No. Not until I teach all of them a lesson.
Hey, young man, good to see you. You showed up just in time, huh?
Quit playing games!
When Im finished with them, Im coming for you.
What are you talking about? rn with you, huh?
-Look, Bailey, theres the man. -Right on time.
You look all right,
but I don’t think you can handle the heat.
Come here!
All right, now my rules.
-Tell him. -Are you ready?
What rules? Im not fighting you.
Youre fighting him.
-You remember me, huh, boy? -[Thunder crashes]
You’re fighting me, not Bailey.
I’m not going to do it.
Uh-huh. He didnt come here today to fight with you.
Bailey disgraced his uniform, and I wont stand for that.
Youre a good fighter.
Lets see if you can do the same to me.
The fights over when one of us doesnt get up.
I plan on kicking your ass, and I never lose.
Hey, you don’t have to fight him, you know.
He wants to kill you. Don’t do it, Jet.
Thunder crashes
You dont want to fight?
That would make you a punk, right?
So, what do you say?

Jet’s been hurt in a fight.
I took him to my house.
Is that you, Jet?
Xiang!
Xiang, are you all right?
Yeah, I’m all right.
What happened?
It began when I took Yao’s wife to the hospital,
and they jumped me.
Those Yankees broke your rickshaw,
and now they’re gonna pay.
lUs just a rickshaw. Forget about it.
Its you that matter, not the rickshaw.
Were going home.
Gasps

Hey, let go! Im staying!
What are you doing, Xiang?
Stop it! Grunting
Xiang, stop. This is embarrassing.
Whats wrong with you, anyway? Are you crazy?
XIANG: What were you doing in that filthy whorehouse?
JET: What are you talking about?
You know what rn talking about.
Will you stop acting crazy?
Damn it! Just settle down.
Hey, look, you had no reason to hit her.
She saved my life. You should be grateful.
But instead, you hit her. Why, Xiang?
Tell me why. Why did you hit her?
Because shes my daughter.
And so what? Shes your daughter.
Oh, now I see. Xiang...
Don’t you remember?
You told me on the island.
You said you survived that battle
because you wanted to see your daughter again.
-Go! -Wait! Hold it!
But when I asked you about her...
you said that she was dead!
I believed it. Xiang, how could you?
Cant you please go away?
Shes still human, or did you forget?
She might be a whore. Still that changes nothing.
Shes still your daughter!
All right. Thats it.
Tell everybody!
You all hear that? My daughter is a filthy whore!
Why dont you just tell the whole world?
Hmm.
Whats the difference?
Shes always going to be your daughter.
Xiang, why are you doing this to her?
You ought to be...
Youre acting just like...
Just like an old...
Like an old what?
Like an old fool. Thats what.
All right, get out! You hear me?
Get out! Go!
Here, take your things and don’t ever come back!
Oh, well, then,
you want me to stay away, I will.
Permanently!
People giggling
Come here, sweetheart! Come to me!
-Hey, I’m gonna get you! -[Giggling]
Laughing
Youre such a big girl.
Oh!
Laughing
My father. He used to love the beach.
I...
We used to be so happy.
So close.
My father and I.
Oh, dad really loved me.
He did, huh?
It must hurt.
Seeing me as a prostitute.
So much has changed.
First, Mama died.
And then the war.
If only things were different.
There has to be a way to make him change his mind.
Xiang, are you in here?
Hey. Hi.
Xiang, I want to talk to you.
Eh? What is there to talk about?
Hey, just because you threw me out
doesnt mean I cant come back here.
Anyway...
Listen.
I need your advice.
You want my advice? The hell you do.
Im in love, you see, with this woman.
You can’t be.
Yeah, and you’re responsible.
If you didn’t throw me out, we wouldn’t be together.
But you did. It’s pretty crazy, huh?
You brought us together. So, in a way...
So, in a way, you owe me.
Hey, you know what? She’s a real beauty, I tell you.
She’s got eyes the size of this bowl.
And long legs and breasts like this.
And a little nose.
A little nose like this.
Chuckles You just ate her nose.
And her rear end. 0000h!
Sweet, just the way I like it.
But...
Whats the matter?
Shes a hooker.
Oh.
You see, she didnt want to do it.
She was a student, but because of the war,
she was forced into it.
You know what?
She says shes quitting.
Its good shes quitting.
Because no one really wants to be...
Wants to be a whore.
Quitting is the only right thing for her to do.
Give her a chance, Jet. That girl has courage.
Yeah, she deserves a chance, right?
So, when can I introduce you to her?
Whenever you like.
Shes right here, waiting outside.
Hey, Xiang.
Look.
What?
What are you doing here?
Get out!
-Hey, no! -Get out!
Whoa! Stop it!
Stop it, Xiang! What are you doing?
Get her out of here!
Crying
Dont go!
Xiang, have you forgotten what you said?
Why not give her a new opportunity?
Just because shes your daughter?
Why is it so hard for you to see?
Do you think that she really wanted to do this?
Come on, Xiang.
Why can’t you just forgive her?
Is it because youre too damn stubborn?
Grunts
Papa!
Oh, Papa!
Na crying
XIANG: Jet?
I hear you, Xiang.
It’s all right now.
Why dont we sit down and eat?
Well, I made such a mess.
Yeah, but you missed the table.

Papa...
I could go get some more food and wine.
Yes, go ahead.
Ah, wait. The best wine.
