- Hello.

Mr. Peter Cee?

Peter, you have a long distance call

from Jack Lee in Hong Kong.

- Thomas, please.

- Hello Peter.

Is that you?

I just called to confirm that I'll be arriving

on the night of black flight, tomorrow afternoon.

- Hey that's great.

I'll pick you up in front of the arrival section.

I was really hoping that you would be able

to come to Manila for the tournament Jack.

I bet you'll beat 'em all.

- (laughs) We'll see about that.

But it will be very nice to see you again

after all these years.

So long.

- Okay.

We will see you tomorrow Jack.

- Come on in.

Have a seat.

What have you to report?

- I have been informed by my contact in Hong Kong

that the man who has the secret book

written by Bruce Lee before his death

is arriving in Manila from Hong Kong tomorrow morning.

- His name is Jack Lee.

- Very good.

I've been trying to locate the whereabouts of that book

for years.

Now I have my chance to get it.

- It's been a long time.

What have you been doing these past few years?

- Do you remember me telling you

about the book that Bruce Lee gave me before he died?

Well I've been perfecting all of many secret stands

that Bruce has led me to.

- Do you have many students studying under you?

- Well only very select few.

Before Bruce died he made me promise

not to impart any secrets of his book

to anyone who was not dedicated to peace and brotherhood.

I am to use it for greater purposes.

- Then you must be an excellent shape

for the tournament this afternoon.

- I'll drive to Frederic Hotel.

I have made the reservation for you.

You can rest a while and I'll be back to pick you up

at three o'clock, so we have time to see

some of the other fights before we have to fight.

- That's fine with me.

You know I really appreciate

all this trouble you're going to.

- That's what friends are for Jack.

I would appreciate it very much Jack

if you could come to my gym tomorrow.

My students are anxious to meet you.

- Oh course, I'll come over tomorrow morning.

So long Peter.

Thanks.

See you at four o'clock.

Bye now.

- [Clerk] Good afternoon sir.

- Hello, I have a reservation.

- Name please.

Would you please sign here sir.

- Alright.

- Hello?

- Hey boss, that guy Jack Lee arrived.

I followed him in to the Frederic.

- That's good.

Keep him under surveillance.

I'll tell you when to move in on him.

- Thanks a lot.

Wait, I'll give you something.

Here you go.

- Thank you sir.

- And now Peter Cee versus Miquel Cordero,

an elimination bout.

- Yeah!

- And now another elimination bout between Chan Youngill

from Korea and Jack Lee from Hong Kong.

- Thanks a lot.

(laughs) It's okay, it's alright.

- [Peter] Congratulations Jack.

Great fight.

- [Jack] Thanks.

- Come on.

Let's go.

- You and your men are useless to me.

You hear?

Useless!

You call yourself a fighter.

You and those other bums couldn't even beat one man.

Six against one!

- That guy's no ordinary fighter.

He's damn good.

- No one is that good.

You hear?

No one!

Only in the movies could it happen.

But no, you guys have to let it happen to you, you fools!

Now get out of my sight.

Now move!

I see I'll have to use subtler means.

- Good morning.

- Good morning sir, can I help you?

- Ah, I wonder if you could tell me

how I can get to the Garbat Stream?

- [Clerk] Well you go out the front entrance of the hotel

and turn right, walk straight ahead

and turn left.

You'll see the street sign right there.

- Yeah, thank you.

- Can I use your phone?

- Yeah, sure.

- Hello?

Yes, we've been waiting for your call.

- Hello?

Yes, this is Miguel.

- I followed him to the TaeKwonDo gym.

He'll probably be there for some time.

- Well, he'll come back here to the hotel

when he's spent his fare.

You better come back here and put into effect

(laughs) our plan.

- Right Miguel, be right back.

- Okay Suzanne.

You cannot fail.

I want that book.

At all costs.

- I know what to do and I won't fail.

- So you say.

What a lovely face.

What beautiful eyes.

What a pity if anything should happen to them.

- Stop it Miguel, you're hurting me.

- You cannot fail.

If you fail I fail, and I wouldn't like that.

I have never failed.

- Alright, over here.

Spread out.

Ready.

Now!

Attack me.

- No, wait.

- Hey, what's the big idea?

- Excuse me.

Why not try it this way?

- Hey man, watch it.

Hey man, what business do you have interrupting us?

Besides, we don't need no teaching from strangers.

- Well, I'm sorry.

I was just trying to help.

- Well don't bother us again.

We're busy.

Besides, you ain't got nothing we need anyways.

- Now, just a minute James.

Don't you think you call me more than you need to?

- Stroke-- - Ah shut your face Manny.

- Just a minute, that's no way

to treat your fellow student here.

- Now look man, you're asking for it.

If you think you're so damn good, then show me.

Come on and show me the way you fight.

I said fight.

Do it.

Come on.

Come on boy, I'll whip your ass.

Come on-- - Hey, stop it.

Just a minute.

This is my guest.

- It's alright Peter.

I'm gonna teach him a lesson.

- What?

You?

- James.

- It's okay Peter.

I assure you.

- Are you sure?

- Alright.

I don't know what's wrong with him.

He just walked off.

He could have just apologized.

- Wow, thanks for the tips.

I learned a lot.

You're really good.

- Of course he's good.

He's one of the best students that Bruce Lee ever had.

- No wonder he's good.

- Ah, he's the one that you were telling us about.

- Yes.

This is the very man.

- Well it's nice to meet you.

- Oh Mr. Lee, wait a minute sir.

I'm really impressed

about the (speaking in foreign language).

Would it be possible for you to teach me personally?

I'm going to spend most of the rest of the day

with my friend Peter here, but if you would later come,

at six o'clock and meet me this afternoon,

we could talk over the matter.

We'll go to my hotel for dinner and talk it over there.

- That's great.

See you later sir.

- You know, I call myself a teacher.

A master even.

And yet I got beaten yesterday like an amateur.

- Your techniques in marital arts are good.

But you have to be prepared for unorthodox techniques.

Like the ones your opponent used on you yesterday.

- Yes, but...

- No, seriously,

my friend, don't sell yourself short.

You're good, but you were just not prepared.

- Hmm, you're right there.

- That's why Bruce's (speaking in foreign language)

is so effective.

It allows for the grading to be dwell,

the grade us all on unorthodox style,

a free style while makes him prepared for anything.

- I see.

But it could take years to learn the beginnings

of such a style.

- That's where you're wrong.

You see, you have a very good style,

which you have developed over years and years

of hard practice and training.

By adapting the basic (speaking in foreign language)

you can develop your own free style

and master the basic techniques in a very, very short time.

- I wish that you were going to stay in Manila longer, Jack.

You see I planned to give you this.

- I, I don't know what to say.

You're giving me your most valuable possession?

- You get to help you.

I want you to have it.

Besides, that's what friends are for.

- Thank you my friend.

- Perhaps some day, someone as close to you needs help,

you can give it to him.

- That, I will surely do.

- I am sorry, I wasn't watching where I was going.

- That's okay, I wasn't watching either.

- My name is Jack Lee.

And you are?

- I'm Sally, Sally Phillips.

- Pleased to meet you Sally.

- So nice bumping into you too.

- How about we buy you a drink

to make up for my good friend?

- I'm not the one he bumped into.

- Can I bump into you then?

- Come on Mr. Lee, offer to buy her a drink.

- Well we haven't eaten our supper yet.

You could.

- Say no more my dear.

Can I invite you to dinner, sweetheart?

- Well.

- Provided?

- Provided what?

- Provided you tell me your name first.

Well, here you go.

Listen Suzanne, since you are visiting Manila,

I'd like to volunteer to show you the sites.

- Well. - Provided.

- Provided what?

- You let me show you the sites alone.

- Well, I guess so.

If you two don't mind.

- No, go right ahead.

Enjoy the sites.

I'm sure that we can find something to do by ourselves.

Can't we Jack?

- Oh, well, I,

I guess so.

- Come on.

Whoops.

This is my lucky day.

Your plates on me.

Come on.

- Okay.

- Just a minute.

- Oh.

I don't usually drink.

- I can tell that.

You only had a few glasses of the wine.

You are alright, aren't you?

- Yes, yes of course.

I think I.

- Oh.

Well why don't we go someplace else Jack?

- Where?

- Come on and find out.

Here we are.

- This isn't my room.

- That's right Jack, it's mine.

Come on in and have another drink.

- No thank you, no drinks, thanks.

- Well make yourself comfortable.

I'll slip into something else.

Jack, darling.

This is brand new and I haven't had a chance

to try it out until now.

The sales lady was absolutely right.

Well, shall we get to know each other better Jack?

How about it Jack, huh?

- You're a good fighter yourself.

- Who are these men?

- Just some poor sports I met earlier.

I'll take care of those guys.

They're students of a friend of mine.

There's a plane I have to catch.

- Oh no, please don't go.

- I'm sorry Sally.

But I have to get back to my students in Hong Kong.

- Hello?

Oh, it's you Sally.

Did you get the book?

- No, and he's leaving on the next flight for Hong Kong.

- Then you failed me.

- But I didn't fail you, I didn't.

- You'll never fail me again.

- No, no stop.

Wait.

- Freeze mister.

That's right, this is for you.

Put your hands up.

Don't try anything funny or I'll blow you away.

Put your hands up.

Turn around and head for your room.

Let's go.

- Good morning Mr. Lee.

I hope you had a nice sleep.

You have something that I want.

It wasn't in your room because it was searched thoroughly.

- What are you talking about?

- You know what I'm talking about.

Now don't you play games with me.

Where's the book?

- Book, what book?

- I told ya not to play games with me.

Now don't make it tough on yourself.

- Just wish you would tell me what this is all about.

- Just a minute Ralph.

Let's give him a chance to reconsider.

After all, we really don't wanna hurt him.

I just want the book. - Come on boss,

I ain't got a chance to get warmed up yet.

- Shall I let him continue Mr. Lee?

- That's up to you

because I don't know what you're talking about.

- Tie him good.

The book Mr. Lee.

- Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

You won $500 in all sir.

- There you are.

- Thank you very much.

- And you.

- Post a guard outside.

We'll continue with him tomorrow.

Let's go back to Manila and try to find out

what he did with the book.

We'll just have to continue to try and make him talk.

- Well you won again.

Take that, thank you.

Thank you.

Thank. - I am really lucky.

- Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

- Look at all that money.

We're making a fortune.

- You won $500 all in all sir.

- [Peter] I wonder what happened to Jack.

He said he was going to meet us at the cock meet.

- [Woman] Oh, maybe he had something else to do

and couldn't make it.

- [Peter] Let's go this way.

- Hey boss, we just got a telephone call from the villa.

They say that guy Jack Lee just escaped.

- What?

I want him found now!

You, get over and keep an eye on that gym and Peter Cee.

- Right boss.

- And you, get back to the villa

and find out what the hell happened.

- Come on with me.

- Master Lee.

My master wants me to apologize for the way I acted.

I hope you'll forgive me.

I forgive you this time.

- Thank you.

What happened to your face?

- It's nothing really.

Where's Master Cee?

- Oh, he went out to see the cock fight with Maria.

Is it important?

- Well I've something very important to tell him.

So as soon as he arrives, please tell him

to come over to my hotel room.

At once.

- Yes master, I'll tell him that.

Goodbye Master Lee.

- He's not from Manila, so there aren't many place

that he can go.

Hello.

- Hey boss, I was keeping an eye on that gym

of Peter Cee, like you told me.

Guess who I saw coming out, big as life?

- Yeah, well get on with it.

- It was that guy, Jack Lee.

The guy I caught last night.

- Yeah, well where is he now?

- Right here in the hotel.

I followed him here myself.

- Very good, that's just where I want him.

Now, listen to me.

- Yeah boss, I got it.

I'll keep an eye on him.

You can count on me.

- Just do it.

Now move!

Come on, we got work to do.

- Who's there?

- [Man] Bellboy with a message, sir.

- I want the book.

And this time I'm gonna get it.

You wait over there.

This is my fight.

And don't interrupt.

- Master Lee was just here.

He says it's urgent to see you.

- I'll go see him at the hotel.

You wait here.

- I'll go with you.

- No, you stay here with Miriam.

- Okay.

- It's gotta be in Peter Cee's gym.

There's no other place.

- If it's there we'll find it

if we have to tear the whole place apart.

- I wanna see Peter Cee.

- Who are you and what do you want with him?

- Nevermind, wipe 'em out!

Take her to the villa.

Now tear this place apart until ya find the book.

- Oh no, who did this to you?

- The book.

- They're after the book.

You must take care.

- Who?

- They will kill for it.

Who is it?

From earlier.

You fought in the tournament.

- He's going to our gym?

- For the book.
