Princess Kasumi.

Your brother is dead. Your destiny is to lead your people.

I will not believe he is dead until I see his body.

There is no body.

Then he is not dead.

I am going to find him.

The guards won't let you leave.

I am not a cricket in a box. I alone determine my destiny.

But Princess, as your brother's best friend, you must let me help you.

If my brother is really dead, then you are no longer his best friend.

Princess Kasumi, if you leave you suffer the same fate as your brother.

You will become an outcast. A shinobi.

So be it.

Princess! The guards will kill you!

Ayane, I know of your love for my brother.

I will find Hayate and bring him home.

Princess Kasumi.

I beg you. Do no leave the clan.

I'm your servant...

...but if you leave I'm honor bound to kill you.

Miss Armstrong, I'm sorry to interrupt, but it's your father again.

I told you, I'm busy.

-But Miss Armstrong, he just... -Okay! Put him on speaker.

Very good.

Hi Dad, what's up?

Sweetheart, I just hope you know what you're giving up!

Dad, we already talked about this.

But if you get the afternoon flight, you could still make it

to the tag team championship in Des Moines.

Dad, I already told you, I am done wrestling.

I'm done being fake. I'm done.

Sweetheart.

Are you there?

Hey Dad, I'm gonna have to call you back in a minute, okay?

Uh, Miss Armstrong...

Miss Armstrong!

Here's the deal, lady. We want the yacht.

If you do exactly as we say, you'll live.

If you don't, then you'll pay with excruciating...

New deal, boys.

You boys get off my yacht now

and you all will avoid excruciating pain.

You need some help, Buddy?

It's okay; come on. Come on.

It's okay. I'll give you a hand.

Yeah.

What do you know? Looks like I'm going to the ball after all.

May I help you?

You're under arrest.

Someone broke into the safe at the Hotel Peking last night.

Stole cash and diamonds. We received an anonymous tip it was you.

It was Max.

He said it was you.

You just said your tip was anonymous.

Tell me about the diamonds.

Well, they're a girl's best friend.

Made form carbons. Subjected to high pressure.

Traditionally a 60th Wedding Anniversary gift.

And they're forever.

Well perhaps spending a few hours in a cold cell

under some hot lights will make you a little more...

agreeable.

-Can I at least get dressed first? -Be my guest.

Would you hand me my bra, please?

Do me up.

Evening.

Kasumi has abandoned the temple.

She has become shinobi.

An outcast.

A disgrace to the clan like her brother before her.

You must follow her. Find her

and kill her.

Welcome to the world's greatest Martial arts tournament's DOA.

I'm Helena Douglas, and I want to thank you

for accepting our invitation.

Each of you has been individually selected because you represent

the best fighting style in your specialized field.

Soon, you will get a chance to prove

that you are the best fighter in the worid.

And at the same time, pick up a ten million dollar prize.

In the meantime, relax before the real fun begins.

God, this is so embarrassing, Dad. I cannot believe you're here.

What? I got an invitation, just like you.

Dean Armstrong. Baby.

So how come you're here? That lady just said

"the best in your fighting style."

Now if I recall, you're a wrestler,

and wrestling ain't really fighting, now is it?

-Come on, Tina, he's beneath you. -I sure would like to be.

-Son of a... -Dad.

Whatever.

God, I cannot wait to kick his ass.

Why do you follow me?

I was invited to DOA. I promise not to harm you.

Unless we meet in a match.

Max.

Oh no.

Max!

Listen. I don't know who you're pretending to be

or how you got yourself invited to DOA.

But what I do know is you left me alone in my Hong Kong hotel room.

I would never leave such a woman as you alone.

Especially not in a hotel room.

I'm winning the 10 million dollar prize money.

If I get to put your double dealing ass in Dead or Alive

so much the better.

Let me help you with that.

Hey everybody, I hope you're enjoying the flight.

My welcome gift to you is this.

To get to DOA island, you have to bail out now.

Parachutes are under your seat.

Just aim for the Buddha on your left. Have fun!

Oh, and one more thing: whoever doesn't make it

to the compound by sundown is disqualified.

Princess! Allow me to go first!

Looks like we landed off target.

How in Hell are we supposed to get up there?

We'd better get going.

Well, you're both on your own. I don't do teams.

That's fine with me. Any team you're a part of is bound to lose, anyway.

Well, I'll remember that when I'm collecting the 10 million.

Okay, here goes.

Race ya.

If we're going to make it, we need to work together.

Sorry!

Oh God, what are you doing down there?

Jesus, hurry up!

We better go.

Thanks, guys.

What took you guys so long?

Who the Hell is that?

Trust me, you don't want to know.

Welcome to DOA. Glad you made it.

I'm afraid you guys were the last to arrive.

Now if you'll all follow me, I will conduct you to the others.

DOA Combatants, your host, Dr. Victor Donavan.

Welcome to you all.

Dead or Alive was created by the late, great Vane Douglas.

Helena's father and my very good friend.

Vane's will decreed this tournament, and as of this year,

marking her 21st birthday, Helena's participation.

My assistants will escort you to the lab, where you will

now undergo a complete physical.

Once you pass your physical, DOA begins.

Hey, this thing kind of reminds me of a disco.

-Zack. -Yeah?

May I please remind you of the importance of this procedure?

It's important, I know. But you can't stop Zack, man.

You can only hope to contain him a little bit.

What do you got there, some modern dentistry chair?

I'm sorry, sweetheart.

Weatherby, have you got those diagnostic reports I requested?

Thank you. How do our contestants look?

We've got a strong group, sir. They look really good.

Bring up Tina Armstrong. I was impressed with her musculature.

Oh God. This is gonna hurt.

Standard procedure, Miss Armstrong. Everyone's going through this.

Are the nanobots broadcasting?

Perfectly. All contestants are online.

All metabolic functions and muscle movements are being broadcast

and ready to download to computer.

Good. Start a contestant database.

We are up and recording.

This is Donavan, to all combatants. Welcome to DOA.

Fights can happen anytime, any place, against anyone.

I select match-ups based on computer analysis...

of the most competitive scenarios.

The computer will broadcast your opponent's image

to your ID bracelet.

No weapons are allowed in a DOA fight

except the human weapon.

Get ready, fight!

To win, you must knock out your opponent.

Losers will be sent home.

Bayman wins.

Christie wins!

Helena!

Helena wins!

Hayabusa wins!

Gen Fu wins!

Princess Kasumi?

Sister of Hayate.

It is an honor to meet you.

I came to find my brother. I am told that he died last year at DOA.

I want to know what happened.

Your brother was a great and noble fighter.

He met his end with dignity.

Hayate was matched against Leon.

Hayate fell from this very balcony.

We never found his body.

I hope that you would choose to stay with us at the tournament

and fight with the same spirit that made your brother so great.

You will win DOA.

You're the best in the world.

Thank you, little sister.

When I leave I will be a shinobi, but I must accept this challenge.

-I wish I could go with you. -No.

You have to stay and lead the clan.

Farewell, Kasumi.

Hayabusa will protect you.

Hayabusa, why do you invade my privacy this way?

She is here.

I know. I have seen her.

I beg you once again, Princess. Go home.

Ask for forgiveness. You have a responsibility to your people.

But I also have a responsibility to my brother.

Donavan is lying.

He says Leon killed Hayate above the Buddha head.

Why would he lie?

I am convinced he is hiding the truth.

What do you propose to do?

Find my brother.

Then I will help you.

Hayate was like a brother to me, too.

Be careful, Kasumi.

I knew you'd miss me.

That's presumptuous.

No, it's a Peyraguey. Your favorite.

So how did you survive the first round?

I feigned an injury so Zack went through.

You know, I set you up in Hong Kong on purpose.

You'd never have come here if you'd gotten away with all that money.

And you wouldn't have been invited to DOA without

demolishing the pride of the Hong Kong police.

Don't tell me you want me to help you

steal the 10 million dollar prize money.

Try 100 million.

Just waiting for us in a vault on the island.

What's the catch?

Well, we have to find the vault and we have to crack the code.

The usual. Shall I tell you more?

Later.

Right now I'd prefer you do something else with your mouth.

Well, well, well.

Don't you just love this place?

Know what I especially love?

You.

Want some?

I'll pass.

It's been quite a day, sir.

I want to see Kasumi in action.

Here data is stronger than I expected.

-Let's match her against Leon. -Leon? That's harsh.

Now that's she's decided to stay

let's see how she compares to her brother.

All right.

Before I take your life, will you repent for leaving the clan?

My only goal is to find out what happened to my brother.

Leon.

Room service.

So you want to play, little girl?

So, according to my source, Helena is the key.

Helena is the key?

-I felt the earth move. -Yeah, that's the desired effect.

No, really, I felt the earth move.

Come on, loosen up. You're way too beautiful to be this tense.

Maybe a little quality time with Zack will loosen you up.

You couldn't have killed my brother.

Close your eyes.

-Keep them closed. -Okay.

-You're wearing way too much clothing. -Hey now.

Come to daddy. Lay it on me.

Oh shit!

Tina!

Quite a fight.

Kasumi lives up to her brother's reputation.

One quarter final spot left.

Looks like a father-daughter grudge match. Yeah.

Thanks for letting me sleep here. My room is an absolute wreck.

Tina! It's showtime!

Dad! Not now! I'm in my underwear!

Which I hate.

Why you can't just sleep in the nude like me, I'll never know.

Oh my God.

No. Dad, she's another fighter. We're just sleeping together.

-Yeah, I can see that. -No, no. I mean--

We're not "sleeping together," we're just sleeping.

It seems to be my baby girl's found herself a special friend.

We'll settle up tomorrow, sweetie. Nice to meet you, Miss.

Oh, it's Christie.

-Tina's real name is Christina! -Dad!

Thanks a lot. Bitch.

Save your strength, sweetheart. Big day tomorrow fighting daddy.

Dr. Donovan, you should take a look at this.

Have you seen this Max character? A DOA fighter.

Yeah, right. This guy's a total fake.

We should kick him off the island!

You're just worried this phony's making the moves on your dream girl.

I can have him removed from DOA island, or

I can have some fun. Punch up Bayman.

Good call, sir.

Hey, Buddy, your day's up.

You know-that was an accident.

I had the worst sleep ever last night.

Christie kept stealing all the blankets.

You know, are you sure this is such a good idea?

Because those things look really sharp.

Acupuncture has many medicinal qualities.

But, in a ninja's hands, it can be lethal.

That actually feels better.

Tina!

Careful, baby.

Sweetie? I've come at a bad time again, haven't I.

Does, uh, Christie know about you two?

Dad! You know what, let's just go ahead and get this over with.

My raft, my rules. Whoever falls in the water first loses.

Fair enough, Tina.

No! Dad, you bit me!

Sorry. Old wrestling reflex.

Dad, you have to understand. I'm here to prove that I'm not a fake.

Even if that means I have to hurt you.

Nice try, sweetie.

Dad, you're not taking this seriously.

I have a question.

Do you do squash?

Sorry. Just slipped right out of my hands.

We're playing volleyball, you want in?

Yeah, let's play.

If you must know, I was working.

Oh. "Working it" seems a better description.

Helena and I take on all comers!

Hey Kasumi, come on, let's go kick some ass.

I just hope you're better at volleyball than you are at seduction.

50 says that Tina gets her little ass stomped.

You know, on second thought, why don't we just go ahead

and make it a whole dollar.

Hayabusa, are you all right?

Yeah.

Do you think you can manage to keep them occupied?

I'd like to search his lab. Search for signs of Hayate.

I can try.

Hey Kasumi, come on!

Ho, party people gather 'round!

I hope you're enjoying the fun in the sun, but before the day is done

we got some hot action.

Just in time.

Now without further ado, let's get this game started for all of you!

DOA style! Bring it on!

First to 5 wins.

Oh! This action is hot!

Oh! Christie with a monster smash! You go girl

Yes! Kasumi and Tina make it a come back with that shot.

I must go.

Ayane, I don't want to fight you.

You are a shinobi.

So was Hayate when he came here, yet you did not pursue him.

Hayate was different!

Because you loved him?

Hayate is in both our hearts.

Help me find out what happened to him.

He's dead.

Prepare to join him.

Kasumi!

Kasumi!

The tattoo she has is on her lower back, right?

Well I've just deciphered it and it means "Helena."

Get it? Helena is the key.

-Helena must be the code. -Max, it's brilliant.

Except she had it done last year in Paris.

She's been showing it off to us.

I'm Weatherby.

What are you doing?

I work in the lab. I'm Weatherby.

Helena.

I know.

Would you like another drink?

I'll get you another drink. Um, I'll get you another drink.

Thanks, Wellington-

Actually, it's Weatherby. It's a pretty funny story.

My Grandfather came over with his horse--

-Hey, Wellsby. -Yes!

What are you doing?

My Grandfather came over...

Baby, come on. Loosen up, it's a party.

You know you want to dance with me?

Well see, I'd love to, but I don't know how good

you're gonna be on the dance floor with 2 broken legs.

So what, you just gonna ruin this party for everybody?

Fine. Sunrise tomorrow morning.

In the square.

Fine.

Boy, am I sorry I mess with you so much.

From now on, I tell you, my money is on you to win.

I appreciate that.

Our nano bots were working overtime on that fight.

But you were right about Tina.

I have to say, I did not see it coming.

That leaves a showdown between Helena and Christie.

And who was your favorite to win, Mr. Weatherby?

My money's on Helena. She rocks.

You were right.

She does have another tattoo.

First I want a deal.

-Okay. -I want half.

And if I win, I get to keep the prize money.

Of course.

Let me show you something.

Very smart.

Vault's in the Buddha head.

So now we just need to find a way in.

So it's down to the 4 of us. Where's Hayabusa?

I haven't seen him since yesterday.

Well, let's go find him.

No. I go alone.

Well, I'm gonna come too.

I said no. He means nothing to you.

Well, that's not entirely true.

You know, he and I-

You mean--

Just once. And he was so persistent, you know.

I'm just kidding.

Come on, Christie.

Second fioor. Follow me.

Weatherby. Take the rest of the day off.

I've got some unfinished business to attend to.

Holy shit! See, when I win the money

this is exactly the kind of office I'm gonna build.

I know you. But why are you facing that way?

That's a lot of steps. My legs are on fire.

I guess you've had a pretty rough day.

You could say that.

I lost to Christie.

Yeah, I saw that.

But it was a close fight.

You almost made it to the quarter finals of DOA, Helena.

Your father would have been very proud.

-Thanks, Motherby. -It's Weatherby, but you don't--

This looks homey.

Look at this. They've been monitoring everything we do.

Bunch of pervs.

Hayabusa.

Hayabusa. What happened?

Perfect.

I mean, it was amazing. Your father recruited me

straight out of college.

I had no idea. That's great.

Your father was a great man.

Helena, there's something I should tell you.

Donovan wanted to take my research into a different direction.

Never gonna happen. I did not set up DOA for this purpose!

I want to know what happened...

He and your father got in this big argument about it.

You're not gonna get away with this, Donovan!

Your father was so against this

he decided to shut down the whole thing.

-So why didn't he? -He never got a chance to.

He died that night.

This is Donovan to all units.

Proceed immediately to the Great Steps

and eliminate Weatherby and Helena.

No one is to enter the lab complex the rest of the day.

And I mean no one.

What are you gonna do?

I'm gonna go see Donovan. My father didn't want him

to get away with it, so neither can I. Come on.

Well what do you want me to do?

Protect me.

That's funny. I was just about to make the same suggestion.

I got your back, Helena!

That hurt! That didn't feel good!

Okay. Well, I'm never gonna mess with you!

Never?

Well, maybe in a controlled environment.

There's gotta be another way into the lab.

Well, that's where I come in. Come on.

Princess!

Now that I have your attention

let me introduce you to the future.

This is amazing. I can't believe my father never told me about this.

Well, I'm afraid that's not the only thing you don't know.

Donovan has taken my concept and used it for his own ends.

So stupid. I should have done something earlier.

Now, it's time to harvest.

Okay, now what?

Donovan has begun the download. We've got to go!

-Do you think it will really work? -Of course! I created it!

Look!

-Help them! -I'm on it. I'm on it.

Come on.

I've got to bypass 4 security protocols to free them. Not easy.

Now for the ultimate test.

The moment I've had to wait a year for.

I've kept him in superb fighting conditions.

Send him in!

Hayate! My brother.

Hayate!

Kasumi!

Kasumi!

Kasumi, I was afraid you would come looking for me.

Hayabusa.

How could you let this happen?

Your sister has the same strong will as you.

Yes, she does.

But she lacks that perfect blend of skills

timing, and strength

to set you apart as the world's greatest warrior

You have me. Let them go.

First things first. I challenge you to a fight.

You win, they all go free.

If you refuse my simple request, they die.

Your choice.

So be it.

Hayate!

No!

Hayate!

Ayane!

I thought you were dead.

I will never leave your side.

-Come on. -It's almost there.

Buyers around the world, I hope you've enjoyed this live demonstration

of the sheer power of this new technology.

Thank you for your down payments.

Transmission to you of the download program will begin immediately.

What's going on?

Oh. No.

-This is not good. -What's not good?

Donovan's transmitting the program to buyers across the world.

I have to stop him.

What?

That was close.

Time to call the cavalry.

Donovan needs to know this is over.

What now?

Bayman, grab the money from the vault. Meet me outside the lab.

Look!

He's headed this way.

I need more time to free the others.

Show me the money.

Oh, no, no. listen. I can explain. Look, just...

You're not gonna get away with this, Donovan.

That's exactly what your father said

right before I had him killed.

What a shame.

You didn't download my moves.

I think I underestimated you, Helena.

You believe the CIA'll stop me? I don't think so.

I'll take this.

All your hard work right here.

By the time they get here, this place will be dust.

Warning, self destruct activated

Enjoy your life with your new girlfriend.

All three minutes of it.

Warning, self destruct activated.

Please evacuate immediately.

Follow me!

Take care of this.

Come on. Follow me. Donovan's getting away.

Go! I'll handle him.

Oh, no.

Come on. We gotta get out of here!

Oh, no.

No! Some thief you are!

-The lab is gonna explode! -Get the money!

We gotta go now! No!

Ten seconds!

-Oh my God. Max. -Weatherby.

-The money. -Get out of here! It's gonna blow!

Come on! There's another way out! We gotta go now!

-Get in. It leads to the ocean. -What about the money?

-This place is gonna blow! -Let's go!

What about the money?

Go! Go!

No.

What about the money?

Well, it was either me or the money.

And Wallaby chose me.

My name is Weatherby. Weatherby.

Oh, for God's sakes, get a room.

Don't you think that guy in the second row is cute.

Is there a guy in the world you don't have a crush on?

You can have him but what about the other three hundred?

Why don't we just split them up evenly?
