Close Escape (1989) - full transcript

There'll be some new stuff
arriving tomorrow

Good, I'm staying at room 1608
of Wah Mei Hotel

Take them here and let me have
a look

Leung!

Here it is

Thanks, what about you?

I'm not thirsty. You drink it

Why? Are you on diet?

Do I look fat?

Man, are you angry?

My new name is April



pr-al, what's wrong with
your original name?

Tell you once more, I'm April

Okay, April, you little girl

By the way, where's your brother?

I don't know. Maybe he's something
to do at the Police Station

Leung, where shall we have supper?

Supper? This is male changing room

Have some soft drink first

Let's go, bye!

Leung, why are you so late

everyone is waiting for you

Is something wrong with you?
You are waiting for me or Ben?

He always comes late

Yeah, he does



Let's have a bath

Take off all our clothes

What are you doing?

You nuts

Who is making this trick?

Where is the valve?
Switch it on for me

We're not kidding, but
I'll check and see

Be quick...

I must be strict to you

What are you doing?

You ass!

Why is it so?

What's the matter?

Blue Elf

It must be you

It's not me...

It's Ben!

How dare you betray me?

You still deny?
How dare you fool me?

Hey, my clothes

What is happening inside?

Your brother

Tell your brother that
we'll wait for him outside

It's outside!

Let's go

Hey, what are you doing?

Ask him!

Let's go

Brother, you were so careless

I'll embrace you

Stop joking

You ass!

Tease him if you want to but

don't get near me

Do you miss me, Big Eye?

Of course I do

Boss!

He refused to eat anything

He will commit suicide

Boss, don't we have to work tonight?

I'm taking a rest
as I don't feel well

Did you go to a doctor's?

Wait, you've got a fever

We'll soon have a doctor at home

Why consult others?

I'm an undergraduate only

Why don't you stop smoking
when you feel sick?

Don't screw me!

Still smoking?

I'll be more than worse if I don't

What are you going to do
after graduation?

Maybe I'll become an assistant
practician at Government Hospital

Don't you want to further
your study in America?

I want to but I've no money

I'll support you even I have
to sell the bungalow

Studying abroad is not really
so important

That bungalow is for you to
memorize May

How can you sell it?

What's the use of retaining it
Now that she's dead

By the way

I know you still miss her a lot

But I can do nothing about that

Though you lost your wife,
you still have a brother

Stop that miserable look

Your girl is being upset again

Big Eyes!

You are a nuisance!

Big Eyes!

Welcome, Mr. Chiu

Come in, please

Alright!

Manager, these gems are perfect

I'll take them all

Thanks, Mr. Chiu

By the way, what is the price
of these gems?

Let me see

Thirteen millions, you can't
buy such a good quality and

quantity with this price outside

Manager cheers to our cooperation

Good, cheers

Manager, please tell me

Whenever there are good gems

Of course, I'll let you know
as early as possible

Why, is there a fire?

Put away the jewels first

Poky, ask someone to see to it

Mr Chiu, the phone doesn't work

Go to the balcony

Run away...

Where is there a fire?

Go. Run quickly

Don't...

Tell me, who sent you
to assassinate me?

Will I tell you, idiot!

Are you going to say or not?

I will. Your mom asked me to

and your dad doesn't even know

You are too smart and daring

I'll say

Say...

The one who hired you

Is it Chiu Ying Kau?

It's you who said that not me

Don't shoot me...

I won't shoot
I must tell you one thing

What is it?

I am indeed your dad,
you mom doesn't even know

Dad?

What is that?

It's poisonous pill, idiot

Poisonous

Then you were also beaten up?

When can I leave?

Wait until our men come back

Come this way

Mr Chiu, you may leave

I'm sorry Mr Chiu, I've finished

I feel great, let's go on

Good, go ahead

I know the case very well

But I want to ask

why you were there

It's simple, because I was
the buyer of the diamonds

Really? You have always been
interested in shares

Why do you suddenly turn to diamonds?

You know me well!

But I can tell you

I'm interested in anything
that makes money

But didn't you lose all your
money in the Stock Market?

Do you still have money
to buy diamonds?

What do you mean?

Nothing, I was just uttering

Would you stop that nonsense

I don't have such spare time

Why so furious?

I'm just taking evidence and

I'm not charging you of anything

Uncle Kwut, what is it?

Sergeant Kwut
you come at the right time

I was going to be cooperative

but the manner of your men is very bad

Uncle Kwut how is the statement?

It's finished, just waiting for
his signature

Would you care to go over
this statement, Mr. Chiu

Sign here if it's ok

Thanks for your cooperation

You may go now

What's the matter, Uncle Kwut?

He ran illegal business before

But he mysteriously made

a fortune recently

I reckon he is involved in this case

We'll wait and see

I'm always right about that

Go on with your work

Hi, Mr. Chiu

Kan, how is the stuff?
Is everything OK?

Yeah, everything is fine

Why did you say so?

Let's talk when we meet tonight

Just a few pain relievers and
you'd to hospital?

Happy birthday

It's a long time we had such
a happy time

Your monkeys!

Who got sharpest eyes?

It must be Sergeant Kwok

You even made that,
then you must be in good mood

Anyway, you remember my
birthday

Forget this!

Brother, run fast!

Kiss him... or let him kiss you

Hope you enjoy longevity and
happy birthday

Hurry!

What is that, don't take my photos

Get away if you don't want to
take some for me

OK

No, you're like a eunuch

You deserve this

Make a pose, movie star

Don't screw me

Are you happy?

Of course I am

I have an appointment,
enjoy yourselves

Are you serious?

This party is for you

how can you leave so early

How can you do that?

How can you go away when
we are so happy!

I have an appointment,
I'll be back in a few days

It's so frustrating

He has something to attend to

I know that

Drive slowly, it's rained before

I will

This is the key of the bungalow,
clean up for me when you're free

OK

Be careful

Come to see me if you have time

What is this key?

None of your business

Wait!

Welcome, please follow me

Why are you so late, take a seat!

I'm sorry, I am a bit late

It's OK, let's drink with Tung

Brother Tung, let's drink this

Sushimi? It's my favourite

Let's eat together

Eat more as you like it

I won't take others share

I'll take my share only

Brother Tung, are you joking?

Get out of here

Tung, do we have a little
misunderstanding?

Say if you have anything

Or it will affect our
relationship

It's something in future, but
now I want cash

Well, where's the stuff?

Good, I trust you though you
don't trust me

One million dollars in cash

If I can cash this cheque tomorrow

you can get the stuff here
as usual

I'll go first

Anyway, Happy Birthday

Say hi for me to your brother

I've got to answer a call first

No, you can't stop

Chop him up!

Don't let him run away!

Stop, or I'll fire at you

I won't play anymore.
I am very hot

Brother Leung!

Faggot, rest again?

This is for you!

Fine

This is huge!

I've found him

Kill him

Take it back to you

Brother, what are you doing?
Stop...

What are you doing?

Be careful

Don't go!

Leung!... Don't chase, Leung

Leave me alone, I must chase
after them

Let me go! Brother

How are you, brother?

Call the ambulance, quick!

Brother! Wake up!

Ben, see if it's this one?

It's him
I won't forget his face

What a coincidence!

Why?

He's called Big Head Man,
he is lousing around

He sticks to chiu Ying Kau
recently

Uncle Kwut
locate him immediately

Take it easy, it's not our case

If Officer Ma learns about this

Will you still help me?

I will... but...

Come on, have some egg tarts first

Officer Ma is here

There are hot egg tarts

Ben, what is it?
Come have some egg tarts

It's just the odds.
Why all these?

Officer Ma, what's the day?

I have something to tell you

My application of emigrating
to Canada has been approved

Congratulations!

You guys remember to be good

So don't make a mess before I go

We will

All are imitation

It's not my business, ask Yok

I really found this out of him

But I don't know why it's so

Maybe Tung has done all this

Boss, what shall we do?

The people from Thailand are
arriving in two days

Boss, I know he has a brother

Shall I take him out?

Of course you must

Be careful this time

I will and I'll go now

Wait for me here

Leung...

I am okay
I hope that my brother

can live happily with May in heaven

Leung, don't think too much

I owe him so much

Believe me

I will find out the one
murdering Tung

There is something I don't know
if I should tell you

What is it?

I suspect that Tung was involved
in a case of diamond robbery

He may even have taken part in it

No, my brother was not that
kind of person

Leung, Tung is just a man,
or he is just confused

Shut up, please

Leung...

Let me tell you, if you frame
my brother again

we won't be friends anymore

Leung, get real

My brother was dead

do you know my feeling?

Not only your brother

one of my men also died

All he left was a widow,
Children and

a flag to cover his coffin

Brother, what are you doing?

Nothing

Leung, don't blame my brother

I want to be alone, go away

I'll look for you later tonight

Hello!

Hello, Mr. Chiu, Sergeant Kwok
wants to see you

Ask him in

Come in

Mr. Chiu

Sergeant Kwok
you are free today, sit down

What can I do for you?

About the diamond robbery

after we have investigated

we believe he is the suspect

Have you seen this man before?

Take a close look

he may be the one who killed
Lam Wai Tung

I believe these two cases are
related

I'm sorry I can't help you

What a pity!

By the way, do you know
Lam Wai Tung?

No, I don't. What is it?

He was my buddy

He was killed and his funeral
is at today

I feel sorry for you!

Big Eyes!

Hey!

Your brother's funeral
is finished?

Who are you?

Listen, you'd better give us
back the stuff

Or you will die

like your brother and the dog

Why did you kill my brother?...

Stop pretending you don't know

You don't know who we are

You'd better give us back
the diamonds

Diamonds? Good come and get them
I'll be waiting

Brother

Hello, is it Police Station?

There's a murderer here,
please send someone here

Thanks

The address here is Happy Valley

Don't make haste,
what is your address?

Brother Leung...

Man, get down here...

Brother, wait for me

Tell me, where are the diamonds?

Say, where are the diamonds?

Let me teach you something

Yes, you are smart and I am sly

You are smart and I am cunning

How can you catch up with me,
stupid

Don't be as foolish

as your brother

You bastard!

Damn you!

Hold it, stop lousing

You'd better tell us

I know nothing

Tell us

How can I tell you
as I don't know anything

Boss, I believe he knows
nothing about that

Fix him, our usual way

Do you really mean to kill him?

We will have nothing
if we kill him

I didn't ask you to kill him

You mean to...

Kill you

Why?

Do you know the police are
looking for you?

We will be in great trouble
if you are alive

Help, someone is killing me...

Aunt, I didn't kill...

Aunt, I didn't kill anyone

Don't shoot

He killed someone,
he's holding a gun

Call the police

He will shoot, let's run away

Sorry, I braked too slowly

I'm sorry, I didn't mean it

We will soon get to the hospital

I must get a 10 o'clock plane

Shut up!

What do you want?
What are you doing?

Turn left at the next comer,
quick!

I will do whatever you say,
don't act rash

Stop here

Get off

I'll see you later

Get off!

Where do you want to go?

Can I get my luggage back?

Is this your house?

Take easy, I am not a bad guy

Come and help me

Me?

Come on

I... I can't

Come on

help me take the bullet out

Bullet? I get nervous
when I see blood

Just help me, hurry up!

I'll try

Don't point it to me

You might shoot at me
if you can't bear the pain

I'm sorry, I said I can't

Try again...

I'll make it, hold it

Are you OK?

You guys get nothing

How can I make investigation?

We're unable to obtain any clues

Look everywhere

It'll soon be solved

I cried out and

that guy turned to me

He is holding a gun

Ben, we've got a warrant

to arrest Lam Wai Leung now

It's a frame for him

Leung was trapped

There was a wallet on the spot

Leung's I.D. card is inside

A maid saw him holding a gun

It must be Chiu Ying Kau

Don't worry
I am always on your side

How is Man? Is she okay?

She is fine, thanks

I wonder where Leung is now

Let's go

You finally wake up

What are you doing?

Where are you going?
Do you want to call the police?

I wouldn't have come back
if I wanted to

I got to buy some disinfectant

Where is my gun?

It's over there

You must stay here temporarily

You too, Mr. Lam

The police are looking for you
be careful

I didn't kill

It's not my business

I am just unlucky to see you

I am sorry

It's alright. Anyway,
my plan to Hawaii is in vain

It's exciting here,
have some biscuits

Still painful?

It's better now

Try it, how is it?

Brother...

What is it?

Is there any news of Leung?

No

Brother, take me with you.
I can help

This is men's duty

Why did you speak so loudly?

Forget it, I am in bad mood

I'll let you know once
I have news

I must go out

Brother...

What is it?

There is a cockroach

Are you OK, Miss?

Thanks, call me Miko

You are Japanese?

Yes, I am a Japanese reporter in HK

You seem not to be

what is that?

Pick them up

The Stock Market collapsed
on Friday, 13th October

All the money I've made is lost

I have only this bungalow left

I won't sell it, I must at least

leave this for my brother

So I promised to do one more
time for Chiu Ying Kau

I hope this is the last one

It's so hard

I feel that the cancer
has spread everywhere

So I hope to leave some money

for Leung

For Leung to be a doctor

I don't know what he thinks

But I hope he will understand me

Why
Why didn't you tell me?

I won't become a doctor,
why didn't you let me know?

I don't,
I don't want to be a doctor

Take a walk with me

on the beach, Mr. Lam. I'm bored

Not a good idea.
It must be freezing outside

I make you some noodles?

No

It's not good to eat too much

I think I'd better get some sleep

This is phone recording
nobody is here

If you want to leave message

say after you hear a 'DO' sound

I am Leung, if you're back...

Leung, this is April

Where are you now? Are you okay?

I am fine
I am now in a safe place

Don't worry!

I got you involved last time
I'm really sorry

Leung, forget it

We are best friends

Is Ben here?

He is out to investigate
your case

What did he find out?

I didn't kill anyone
I am innocent

We believe you are innocent

Where are you now?
I'll come and accompany you

No now. I'll contact you later

Study hard, bye!

Hello... Leung...

Boss, will this work?

Do you have a better way then?

We can only do this
from the time being

What if the Thai people know?

This is HK, not Thailand

Chiu

Mr. Shek

Take a seat, Mr. Shek

Well, you come by yourself?

Do you see anyone around me?

I can deal with you on my own

I am kidding only,
don't get angry

It's really funny

Is the stuff ready?

All is ready

But I want to raise the price by 20%

Twenty percent?
You want to run away?

It's trivial to you, Mr. Shek

You know how much you can make

if they're exported to Thailand

Pick them up

Well, I'll think it over

I'll let you know in a couple of days

Alright!

Thank you, Sir.
Let me pick it up

It's nothing,
mind the broken glass

Why you got upset again?

You should be opened up
if you want to recover

Stop thinking about
the misfortune

It is a specialist said

What a coincidence, Sergeant!

Yeah, it is

What happen to this young guy?

He is injured and drunk

This way, officer

Get away...

Were you racing?

You are bleeding

Are you okay? Can you walk?

Call for ambulance

Hey men!

A policeman crashed under
influence of alcohol

Damn it. Everything is gone

I thought I could have
a glorious retire but now...

You shouldn't drive
when you are drunk

No, someone trapped me

Yeah, I was trapped too

I was told to write a report,
you tell me how I do write

You got to make it,
don't put shit on me

Yes Sir

From now on,
whenever there is a case

I will assign it to other units

If you want to show off,
wait until I have emigrated

Get out

Thank you Sir

Officer Ma,
I'll take responsibility

if there is

You'd better go home
to look after your babies

Faggot!

Officer Ma's got angry

I won't care about it

Will you go on investigating?

Why not? I will go to the end

How about your hand?

It's nothing

Uncle Kwut, it's so quiet,
Uncle Kwut...

What's the matter?

It's no use to wait here

Yeah, it won't work

I am sleepy

We shall fix an overhearing
aid on his car

What? Be careful

Okay, be careful

Hey, don't sleep,.

Alright, go ahead

Okay, see you later

Does Yok's car ready?

Yes, you may use it any time

Let's go!

Boss, how about the Thai?

Hold it

Be quick!

OK

Sorry, boss

I've closed it, but why...

Be careful next time

How's going on?

You mean the love affairs?

Fine, she believes me thoroughly

Would you like to try?

Thanks

you fool me?

I don't know that,
let's drink this

Thanks!

Can't you be more serious?

Boss, I am kidding only

We can't locate the diamonds

that guy really knows nothing

To my knowledge

the diamonds must be
in the bungalow

I don't care if he knows or not

you've to fix him since you've
got the money

It's good to mention it.
Please...

The money you gave me didn't
include expenses of accessories

Living, eating, medicine and
Clothes, it's over budget

Okay, I know what to do

I want cash

Okay

You should be a whore
to make money

Dare you say it again

I am sorry

You see, you are worse than
a whore

Your kungfu is quite good,
but got bad temper

I'm not bad tempered,
he is meant to be

You damn Japanese

How's that, mixed guy?

Stop all that, you go first

Tell me if you've got any news

I'll, don't worry

That's it

Bye!

Leung...

What are you doing?

I'm sorry, I didn't mean it

You know everything about
my brother

You shouldn't blame on
your brother

You shouldn't blame him

It's that damn Chiu Ying Kau

He's lucky, I haven't seen him
the whole day

So you looked for him?

Don't act rash, he's mad

I will also do anything

Think before you act

Sorry I brought you all this

You may go now. I think you
won't tell the Police, will you?

I will if you let me go

I just worry about you

I'll wait till you have
recovered

I have holidays, anyway

As you like

If the Thai knows that
we play tricks

he won't take it easy

But we've to meet him
at Status Square

Shall we go?

Why not?

Uncle Kwut, Chiu Ying Kau is here

Sure, I've got the clue

Tell Man quickly!

Man...Chiu Ying Kau
is approaching get ready

Boss, it's time but the Thai
hasn't turned up

Can you hear what
they are talking about?

I can't heard
as it's too noisy here

Ask Man to get closer to them

Man, get closer them

I don't care if he comes or not

Many people are willing to pay
at this price

He's still got some influence
there

we can take advantage from him

By the way
how's the shares now?

Don't worry, everything
is arranged

Chiu

I know what to do

What is your decision, Mr. Shek?

Record every word they say

It may be evidence
when we charge him later

Man, get closer,
the background is noisy!

We'll go first, bye!

Leung!

Stop him,
or everything will be spoilt

Leung

Chiu Ying Kau!

Get away...

Let me go

Stop, get up

Don't act rash

Don't move

Don't act rash

Shit!

Fire at him!

Put down the gun

Sergeant Kwok,
you shelter the convicted

You are too stupid for that

Fire at him!

I know what to do

Let's go

Shoot him

Let's go...

Let's go...

Don't move. Go away with Leung

I'll fix that

Let's go...

Let's me go...

I'll fire, don't do that

Sir, I do know law!

You should be careful
or you might lose your pension

I'm a faggot,
I forget the law now

You'd better go away

Otherwise, we'll be in great
trouble get away...

You're smart

Get aside

Miko, I've got something to do

Don't wait for me, go now

I don't know when I'll be back

Very nice to meet you

Thanks for your care and
encouragement

I won't forget the time
with you

Good bye

Leung

You are too smart!

I don't know who's got bad luck

I have to explain to people
in Thailand

Mr. Shek, I'll give you
the old price

Don't fool me

You've got no diamond with you

If you could take out a diamond

I would do whatever you say

Screw you, what do you mean?

Have you finished?

You want to show up
before your men?

Chiu, you'll be in great
trouble if you hurt me

Remember I am always over you

Shut up!

Boss, what shall we do now?

We have no time left how

He must die if we can't find
the diamonds

Did you hide here these days?

Yes

Leung, where's the hostage?

I don't know, maybe she's gone

Don't worry, it's okay

What about the incidence
at Status Square?

It's fine.
Uncle Kwut will fix it

But it's too bad we couldn't
get any evidence

Where is the phone?

It's over there

Leung!

What's the matter?

Come here, I've something
to tell you

Uncle Kwut, this is Ben

I am with Leung

What is it?

Does that girl was good to you?

Why are you asking this?

Nothing, it seems you care
about her

Leung...

Miko!

Are you okay?
I was looking for you

I thought you wouldn't come back

It's fine now, this is...

Let me introduce for you...

Sorry, I've to go now

Man!

Don't let officer Ma know that

Brother, I am leaving now
Man...

Give me a call if you've got
something else, Uncle Kwut

Where's Man, Ben?

She's gone!
What are you guys doing?

Leung,
this is...

Let's me introduce for you,
this is my buddy, Ben

Miss Miko

I know you

You know her?

She is with Chiu Ying Kau

Sorry, I don't know what
you're talking about

I saw you with Chiu Ying Kau
the other day

No!

Dare you deny,
go with me to the Station

What are you doing, Ben?

Go...

Ben!

Go...

Stop that, Ben!

But she has rescued me before

Let me go...

Stop that, calm down, will you?

Don't move

Sorry, Leung

So you are with Chiu Ying Kau

Fire...!

Leung, don't push me!

Leung, I'm sorry, I must take
the diamonds away

But I can guarantee your safey

It's meaningless to say any more

You won't believe what I say

But though I've been lying

I was true to you

when I was with you

Get away!

Give it back to the cop

Why is my brother's gun here?

Hey...

Damn it, what's going on?

Be careful!

My hand

Let me go first

Let me back first

Come on

My hand

Let me go first

Let's go

Can you find it?

I can't

Go over there

Tell me,
where are those diamonds?

I've got no time

I am not fooling you

That Japanese girl took
the diamonds with her

Boss, I've told you
she's unreliable

What are you talking about?

It's not the time
for saying this

No, boss, that Japanese girl...

Shut up! If you guys are smart

I wouldn't have to ask her

You know nothing except
throwing money

Sorry, boss!

What the use of it?

You apologize but never improve

Can you show me your ability?

Listen, find that Japanese girl

Yes

Look everywhere

Don't go!

Don't move

Don't think that
you can go away with your gun

I'll wait to see. Fire!

Be careful, go...

Leung, don't shoot

Leung, there's only one bullet left

Go in, they have no bullets left

Go, they have no bullets left

Don't move

Don't move, go there

Stay aside

Brother

Leung

Stop that...

Don't move!

What are you doing?

Stand still or I'll fire

You'd better stay where you are

Remember I am your boss

I've found what you want

I will do whatever I want now

I want to take them away

You give up money for the sake
of that guy?

Come on, Leung!

Come on, Leung!

I hate you, Chiu Ying Kau

I don't want your money,
how's that?

I owe you nothing
as you get the diamonds

Let's go

Let's go

Come on!

You like diamonds, eat them all!

What don't you eat your
favorite diamonds?

Eat them all!

Leung, stop that

Don't fire

Leung...

Miko!

How are you, Ben?

OK, I think I must go to hospital

Forget it

Please don't, Leung
