All language subtitles for 10. The Green Hornet - 10 - The Preying Mantis

Mr. Reed. I know the Sentinel has been

campaigning against the protection racket

in the city. Who is this?Never mind who

I am. But if you want a big story for

your newspaper, you send a reporter to

the Golden Lotus Cafe as soon aspossible.

What's the matter?Somebody

calling about the Sentinel's crusade

against the protection racket. And a tip

that something's about to happen at the

Golden Lotus Cafe. The Golden Lotus?You

Get the Black Beauty ready.

Look, they're closing.

What are you doing here?You can't use our

tongue this way any longer. The

Zhou Yang is my tongue now. I'm warning

you. Nobody wants Luo Xin.

What

do you want?Tribute to the benevolence of

Zhou Yang Tong. Benevolence?You mean

black male?Get out! We're willing to be

reasonable, Winghope. I say get out, or

I'll call police.

Another challenge for the Green Hornet.

His aide, Cato, and their rolling

arsenal, the Black Beauty. On police

records, a wanted criminal. The Green

Hornet is really Brit Reed,

owner-publisher of the Daily Sentinel.

His dual identity known only to his

secretary and to the district attorney.

And now,Protect the rights and lives of

decent citizens rides the Green

Hornet.

He's gonna be all right. What happened to

you?I ran into a little ampoule.

Jimmy!

one of them. My uncle may die. You

may have killed him. No, Mary, I had

nothing to do with it. You must

believe me!

And although the attack on the Chinese

restaurant owner had all the aspects of

is suspected that something more

malevolent is really the case. As the

Daily Sentinel has reported in a series

of articles in recent weeks, there has

been a resurgence of the vicious

extortion racket in this city. It is the

Daily Sentinel's belief that this

criminal operation is now attempting to

invade the city's Chinese community.

Well, I'm certainly glad that your

newspaper's taking that position, Britt.

I never could buy that Tong war angle.

Somebody is using the Tong for his own

purposes. There's one person that knows

who it is. Jimmy Key. You think so?I'm

positive. Well, Mary Chang thinks he's

one of the gang. She's wrong. That mask

was not his. He was unconscious during

the raid.

Frank, we've got to find that boy. I've

got a hunch we're not the only ones after

him. If he poses the threat to the Tong

and they're after him, they're going to

silence him permanently. I'll have the

police put every available man on the

search. Good.

Kato?Yeah?Talk to Mary Chang.

See if she knows where Jimmy Key might be

hiding. Okay.

You know, if we ever meet up with that

masked Kung Fu man again,

I want him. You got him.

The

Praying Mantis School of Kung Fu has 500

founder. You can learn much from watching

the Mantis himself at work. Note the

tightness of the defense.

Elbow's well tucked in. My friend. You

have a few things to

learn yourself.

Haven't you heard?Heard what, Mr.

Slake?That old man you beat up last

night. He's in pretty bad shape.

So?you're supposed to get the merchants

down here to buy our insurance, not to

put him in a hospital or a cemetery. I'll

handle things my way.

As long as you're working for me, you'll

it. I could kill you with one try.

About that kid the cops are looking for,

the one that saw you go in the cafe last

night. What's his name?Jimmy Key. I guess

you realize if we don't get him before

they do, we're in serious trouble.

Jimmy Key will come to me. All I have

to... You do it. Don't

talk about it.

I guess you have this outfit under

control. The old man of the tongue are

frightened. The young man are with me.

Except one. Now you'll find

him.

I could get somebody there to talk. And

when I was walking in, who do you think I

saw coming out?Well?

Duke Slate and a couple of his boys.

Who's Duke Slate?Among other things, he's

the boss of protection racket on the west

side. And now he's expanding into

Chinatown. Looks like it, doesn't it?

Let's keep the lid on this until we get

the whole story, okay?Sure. You know,

sometimes I can see a bit of your old man

in you after all. Rest his soul. I

hope you realize that's probably the

highest compliment you'll ever receive.

I know, Miss Case, and it... humbles me.

Mr. Reed's residence. Kito, this is Mary.

Yes, Mary. I know where Jimmy is. Where?

In the old Buddha temple at the end of

Mandarin Park. He called

and asked me to meet him at 9:00 tonight,

but... But what, Mary?I don't know what

to do. I can't explain. Something's

happening. I have a feeling I'm being

watched. Mary, this is Brett Reed. Where

are you?The restaurant. Stay there.

I'll have Miss Case, my secretary, pick

you up and take you to her apartment.

Thank you, Mr. Reed. Thank you.

Think he saw it badly?Just stunned. We'll

take him to Scanlan. Maybe he'll tell

Frank what happened outside the Golden

Lotus last night. He will. I know Jimmy.

Then Frank will have Duke Slate in his

Chinese hatchet bin right where he wants

him.

Hello?Yes?

What?

No, you go on home, Miss Case.

Mary Chang's been kidnapped. Kidnapped?

But why?You think

Jimmy Key will talk if it means

endangering Mary's life?No.

Obviously, Duke Slate and his Chinese

friends don't either. Okay, we've got

Jimmy. They've got Mary. What do we do

now?There's one thing we can't do. We

can't turn him over to Scanlon.

And although the police refuse to

speculate, it is believed the mysterious

disappearance of Miss Mary Chang is

connected with a protection racket which

has been operating recently in Chinatown.

I hope your plan works. It will. Jimmy

Key is no fool. Get that.

I wouldn't if I were you. What is this?I

have a feeling we've met before.

Not now. Let's talk. What

have we got to talk about?Mary Chang. Who?

And the reason she's been

kidnapped. I don't know what you're

talking about. You kidnapped Miss Chang

to force Jimmy Kay into giving himself up

in exchange for her release. Then you

plan to kill him to keep him from

talking. You sure you're at the right

address?It won't work slate. Key can't

give himself up to you. I have him in my

possession. What's your interest in Jimmy

Kay?Purely monetary.

What does that mean?It means I'll be

happy to turn him over to you for

$25,000. For 25,000?

for me. You should teach him some

manners. Hold it.

You're not going to deal with him?You got

any better suggestions?Yeah, let me

handle them.

What are you laughing at?You.

Now stay out of it and shut up.

All right, it's a deal.

One more thing. I want Mary Chang.

She should be worth some dollars to her

uncle when he recovers. If he recovers.

Now, about the delivery of Jimmy Key.

Where and when?Midnight tomorrow night at

Soyen headquarters. No, I prefer a more

neutral territory. Say, the

Buddhist temple. The end of MandarinPark.

Until

tomorrow night. Until tomorrow

night.

basement. Kato fixed up a guest room for

him. It's comfortable and escape proof.

Do you have any idea where he is or who

you are?No. He was unconscious when we

brought him here. What makes you think

you'll be able to spring Mary Chang?Lo

Sing will have his whole gang of thugs

there at the temple. You can't handle

them all. From what I've seen of Lo Sing,

I don't think we'll have to worry about

police cars standing by, and I'll keep

these handy.

Where are you taking me now?You'll see.

My father's head with Soyung for 30

years. I'm glad he didn't live to see

what you and Lo Sing have done to our

Tom. Lo Sing and him?

Don't kid me. You're partners.

Most things going to be pretty surprised

to hear that.

Now wait. until they get on the steps.

Good evening, Mr. Slate.

Yeah, you too, Slate.

What is this?A meeting of the. What's he

saying?He's

calling a traitor

to the Tong, and he's

telling others to remember's honorable

history. He's

pleading others to overthrow. Hey! Mary!

Jimmy! Jimmy! All

right, let's get this over with. I'll

take the money and the girl and...

I do not pay tribute to anyone.

All right, this has gone far enough. Now

give him the money and let's wrap this

up. You'd

better listen to him, Lo Singh. I no

longer take orders from Mr. Slate.

Big talk. That's all that it

is. Lo Seng,

you are nothing without me. He's nothing

with you. I was willing to let you two

operate, provided you played it straight

with me. As of now, you're out of

business. Now, who makes the big talk?

Is that all you think it is?How would you

stop us?

Kung Fu?Isn't that the traditional

way?All right, hold

it. Now we're not playing any games. Stay

out of this, Slate. What do you say, Lo

Sing?Man against man.

Slate is right. What's the matter, Lo

Sing?The stakes too high?You

afraid you might lose?I'll kill him as I

would to fly. More

big talk. This man is your

leader, your hero. He

Enough!

Bye! Bye!

Bye!

Any questions?Untie me.

Lo Singh is finished. So

ends the evil times this tongue has

fallen upon. Now let's be wise enough to

return the Toi yen to the tradition it

represents. The tradition of my father.

Okay, move in.

We're not needed here anymore.

I'd like to compose another toast.

Welcome back, Wing Ho, in a speedy

recovery. And I want to make one,

too. True to Soy Yin and

Jimmy for restoring the Golden Lotus.

Excuse me, I'll get it. This is the 6th

course. Don't we get a breather?There's

still two more before the main course,

Mr. Oxford. You can serve mine under the

table. It's for you, Mr. Oxford.

Oh, oh, thanks. Excuse

me. Yeah?

Yeah.

Thanks for the tip.

Britt. That was Sergeant O'Mallory. The

cops have got a guy trapped on the top

floor of the Century Bank building. So?

It's the Green Hornet.

The Green Hornet. So Sergeant O'Mallory

thinks. Well, aren't you coming?Well,

not till I finish my almond duck. Almond

duck?You're going to look pretty funny if

it is the Green Hornet. Well, I can't

argue with you there, Mike. Say, would

you like some more peach chow yuck?I'd

love some.
