Tiger is the owner of a brothel who moonlights as a kung fu artist under the watchful eye of "Master." They run into serious trouble when ninjas inexplicably show up and jeopordize Tiger's prostitution ring.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[GROANING]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

-Ninja, show your stuff.

Just leave Mariko and the child.

I'll spare your life.

-You want me to
leave them alone?

You'll have to kill me first.

-You want to kill my brother?

Kill me first.

[MUSIC PLAYING]



-Get away.

-Brother!

-Take care of the child first.

Go.

-What about you?

-Run!

-Just run.

-Princess-- Princess--

-Go.

-Brother, I--

-Run!

-Princess!

-Run!

-Princess-- Princess, run.



Get away.

Princess!

Brother!

-Get away.

Get away now.

-Get going.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

WOMAN: Tiger, there's
a guest leaving.

Come back next time.

-Hey, come inside.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Come in.

-I'm good.

-Hey, come on.

-No thanks.

No thanks.

-Come on.

Come on, pretty girls.

-Are you Mr. Tiger?

-Why yes.

That's me.

What's the matter?

-Well I heard this joint
is the best in town.

-What a good fellow.

You're right.

-How much?

-How much?

Your money's no good in here.

Don't you know that we don't
want three types of customer.

I'm very sorry.

-What three types?

-No under age.

It's not ethical, and
it's illegal of course.

-I'm over 30.

-And no fat belly too.

It's too dangerous, and
the girls don't like it.

-Oh well, Tiger.

Who cares about a big belly?

Hey handsome.

Let me take care of you.

-Hey, what about
the house rules?

There's still one
customer we don't take.

-What type?

-Just like you, drunkard.

Get lost.

-Drunkenness must
run in the family.

What a big deal if I'm drunk?

[HICCUP]

-Of course it's a big deal.

It really does matter
because if you're drunk,

it affects your performance.

And it may take a long time
before you get out of the bed.

You see?

-Hey, Tiger.

This is a bad season.

Who cares?

Business is business.

If the customer
takes a long time,

maybe he'll be a
little bit tired.

But I can take care of him.

Hey, come on.

I'll take care of you.

Come on.
-Hey, come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Hey, young man.

Don't just look.

Why don't you go in?

-Me?

No, no.

-Hey, you're a big fellow.

Are you a virgin, or what?

-A virgin?

You got to be joking.

-You mean you've done it?

Who with?

Your maid?

-No, no no.

I just play with myself.

That's what I do.

-You-- you play with yourself.

We've got pretty girls in there.

Why don't you go try it out.

Come on.

-No.

No, no.

Forget it.

-Hey, come on.

Don't be shy.

They're good.

-I can't.

I can't.

Those girls, they
don't know my style.

-You've got to be joking.

They're going to satisfy you.

-Hey, young man.

I don't care what
style you want.

Just come on in.

-Yeah, go on.

Go on.

Get in there.

-Hey, little Tiger.

Come on.

-Master.

-Keep your voice down.

How's the business going?

-It's pretty good.

You got a full house.

-Oh, that's good.

Remember, don't call me Master.

OK?

Now I'm off.

-See you later.

Come on.

Come on.

Come in.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Hey, come on.

Come on, pretty girls.

Come on, everybody.

Come in, the girls
are beautiful inside.

Satisfaction guaranteed.

They're very good.

You got to try it.

[SCREAMING]

-What the hell are you doing?

I'm not the one who's screaming.

-Oh, I'm sorry.

I thought you were
making all that noise.

-Mai Lin, what's the matter?

-I'm coming.

That's why I'm screaming.

-What?

What are you talking about?

I didn't even drop my pants yet.

-If I'm not coming right now,
what are you going to do, huh?

-Mai Lin, you're
not even doing it,

and you're screaming like hell.

What's going to happen
when he comes all over you?

-Well, what is it to you?

Get lost.

-You're crazy.

-Hey, hey.

Mr. Woo, you can't go.

Don't leave me here.

Stop going.

Hey.

-Mr. Woo, what's the matter?

-I told you.

She won't play it my way.

-Hey lady, what's
the matter with you?

This isn't your first or
second or third time--

-But he-- he wants a free fuck.

-I told you.

She won't do it.

-Listen, man.

Who the hell do
you think you are?

People pay to fuck.

-What are you going
to do about it?

-What can I do?

I'll show you.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Want a free fuck?

You better leave
your clothes behind

before you leave this place.

You're shit.

Go on, get lost.

Hey, welcome, welcome, welcome.

Come on.
Come on.

Come on.

Come inside.

[LAUGH]

-After 18 years, I finally
become the Grand Master.

This time I have a
chance to come here,

and I tell you that it's all
because of Fugiko and Sakura.

You will get your reward.

After our mission
is completed, I

will reward all
who are faithful.

-Grand Master--

-Did you find them?

-No, they ran away.

-This is the law.

Reward for success.

But if you fail,
then you must die.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

-What's going on?

[MUSIC PLAYING]

-Turn your head
and turn your soul.

Beautiful girls for everyone.

I don't care how good you are.

Just come in and try us out.

[INTERPOSING VOICES]

-Come on in, everyone.

-Hello, you want to
try the Japanese style?

-We have girls too.

Hey, don't you know
the rules around here?

You're opening a whorehouse.

You shouldn't make
it so obvious.

Aren't you afraid the
police are going to come?

-Don't you forget that
this is Japanese territory.

You should be the
one who's afraid.

-Shit.

-Hi!

-Hey, what are you doing?

-That man is too much.

Oh God, I can't
stand it any more.

OK buddy, I'm going.

Sayonara.

Come on.

-Good bye, and thank you.

I hope to see you again.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

-Sakura, how is it?

Does he got a plum
sign on his chest?

-I didn't see it.

That kid is smart.

-The Grand Master
wants the news bad.

All the ninja are
out to look for them.

If we can't find them first,
we'll be in a real big trouble.

Got that?

-I can only spy on
him at the front door.

-It's not enough.

We must find out who
it is at all cost.

-Yes, I will, brother.

-Try to get close to him.

I'm going.

-Now come on in.

Come on in.

Come on in.

Come back next time.

Thanks a lot.

Thanks a lot.

Now sir, this one is
the best room we've got.

Now take care of him.

-I will.

-I'll tell you, I'll be rich
for the rest of my life.

I tell you--

-Here, have some tea.

-If I become rich, I won't
forget you, sweetheart.

-Forget it, man.

Stop dreaming again.

-Hey, you just don't believe me.

Do you?

-Yes, I don't believe you.

-All right, I'll
tell you everything.

Listen to me.

Last time I saw some guys,
and they were carrying

stuff in and out of the mansion.

I think there are many
treasures in that house.

All I got to do is
steal it, then--

-Now I know you're dreaming.

-You think I'm
getting sick, huh?

-I really do.

I think you are sick.

-No, no.

You'll see.

I'm going to make it.

And after that, well
I'm going to marry you.

What do you say, huh?

-Right.

I'm going to tell Master.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

-Master!

Master, Master!

Master, come out.

-How do you know
there's trouble?

-Master, Master.

Master, Master!

-Tiger, keep your voice down.

-Master, you OK?

-I am OK.

I just had a little fight with
a couple of Japanese ninjas.

-Huh?

Master, why don't you
beat the shit out of them?

A couple of Japanese
are nothing.

Even 10 of them,
they're not your match.

Are they?

-Forget it.

I'm a beggar.

Did you ever hear of a
beggar beating up people?

-Master, my whorehouse
is in trouble.

We've got competition.

-What competition?

-A Japanese whorehouse.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

MASTER (VOICEOVER):
How can it be so soon?

-Hey, Suni.

-Master.

Oh, OK.

Come on, guys.

Get out.
Party is over.

Come on.

Hurry up.

-Tiger--

-What, Master?

Master!

Master, what are you doing?

Master, no!

Master--

-Get up.

-No, not again.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

-From now on, I will
teach you the highest

style of our kung fu.

This style consists
of seven parts.

Each part is very
difficult to learn.

You will soon be in trouble.

That's why from now
you have to learn.

-Teacher, is this necessary?

-Although you've got a good
physique, it may be too late.

Beggar, the cup.

-Yes.

-Drink it.

-Master, it's a mistake.

This is vinegar.

I can't drink that.

-Everything's all right.

Just drink it.

Drink it!

-Master, it's too sour.

I think I'm going to be sick.

-Shut up.

Just keep your
concentration on your mind.

Let the blood flow out.

Give over your body.

Let the air get
into your stomach.

These feelings are normal.

-Teacher!

-Beat him!

[MUSIC PLAYING]

This blood is different
from our normal human blood.

It can increase body
capacity, so you

can become a good grand master.

This blood is not easy to find.

-Is it necessary to go
through all this trouble?

-Forget it.

Just concentrate.

-I'm not worried about the game.

It's about your student.

I just don't understand.

-Don't worry, you will one day.

-Well, I hope you know
what you're doing.

I'll take this back.

-You can't do that.

It's cheating.

-OK.

I'll see if I can beat you.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

-I got you.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

You lose.

[FLUTE]

[ROAR]

[MUSIC STOPS]

[LAUGH]

-For these few days I've
really given you a bad time.

I know it.

I've never given you
such a bad time before.

But if we don't train you
ahead, by the time you get

to real practice, I'm
afraid that your body

won't be able to handle it.

I forced you to do it this way.

It's the only way.

-I understand, but-- but--

-But what?

-Why don't you let me get
some fire to warm me up?

-Warm fire?

-Yeah.

-Warm fire will force the
cold air into your body.

This will kill you right away.

What's wrong?

Why do you keep
shivering like that?

-It's just-- I
just feel so cold.

-That's OK.

Come on, walk with me.

You'll feel better.

Come on.

-Master, no, I can't.

I can't.

-Why-- why not?

-It's just I don't want to.

-It's nothing.

A little walk will help you.

-Master.

-Yeah?

-There's something
I want to know.

-Tell me.

-So many strange things
have happened lately.

I just can't see the connection.

-Sometimes you may not have
anything to do with people,

but the trouble will
still follow you.

That's life, I'm afraid.

-But I'm poor.

I've got no power, no money.

Then how would I get
into trouble like this?

I just don't understand.

-I can only explain the
facts of life to you.

-I think something's wrong.

-Stop asking so many questions.

I want you look for a blind
fortune teller for me.

-Blind man?

Hey Master, I've got a lot of
blind masseurs in my place,

but I've never seen a
blind fortune teller.

Do you think he know
the black clothes guys?

-I really don't want
to tell you the truth

before you're practicing
better in your kung fu.

But those black
clothes people are

called-- they're called ninjas.

-Ninja?

What are ninja?

Big deal.

Master--

-Don't call me Master.

Why you're not even
1/10 as good as a ninja.

-Master!

-You listen to me.

These black clothes people
are Yi Ho Ling ninja.

Somewhere around
100 years ago, there

were many lords ruling Japan.

These lords were always
fighting each other and hiring

groups to kill each other.

They used them for murder--
to murder each other.

Ninjas, they're divided
into many streams.

Among them, Yi Ho Ling
ninja is the best.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

MASTER (VOICEOVER): A ninja
can take a whole lifetime

before he completes a mission.

Even if he's hurt, he will
not give up until death comes.

-They are different from
regular kung fu masters.

You could say they are
well-trained real killing

machines.

It's only death
that can stop them.

-Master, don't they
have any weak points?

-They do have a weak
point, but only one

is the perfect way to kill them.

-Which one?

-You won't understand
even if I tell you now.

Well Tiger, go back
to the town now.

We'll talk tomorrow.

OK?

-OK.

See you later.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

-Devil mask.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

-Thank you.

Come again.

Master, thank you for
your help last time.

Please come in.

-Oh, no.

I've got some business to do.

-Come on.

Try the Japanese style.

-Japanese style?

No thanks.

-We're into the same business.

Why don't you exchange
the experience.

-No, no.

I don't do that kind of thing.

-You can't even make it?

-Are you crazy?

-Good.

-Hey, no!

[GIGGLING]

No!

You can't do this to me.

No.

Look, look-- I'm not ready.

No!

Hey, help me.

Hey lady, let me out of here.

Come on.

Lady, sorry.

I'm coming here just--
just-- just for--

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Oh my God!

You're a man.

Oh no!

I don't like homosexuals,
not the backdoor.

You see?

Stay away.

Now stay away.

Don't hit me.

You wouldn't try it.

You'll regret it.

Ow!

Hey!

Stay away from me.

I haven't taken a
bath for three months.

Do you understand that?

Three months, no bath.

Hm.

I didn't think I was that sexy.

Just stay away from me.

You Japanese are crazy,
you bisexual idiot.

Hey, there you go again.

No way, Jose.

I'm getting out of here.

-How is it?

Did you see it?

-Hey, everybody's
got the same thing.

Look at what, huh?

-Thank you.

-Thank you for coming.

-Come again.

-Thank you, bye.

-Good night.

-Fuck this.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

-No escape.

Why not make a good move?

I won't run away again.

Ha!

-This is for you.

Hey?

You have such bad taste, you
must be crazy for flowers.

-Hm.

If I was crazy for flowers, you
wouldn't be the one I'd pick.

You're so young
and inexperienced.

-Me, inexperienced?

You know what they call me?

They call me pile driver,
specialize in digging a hole.

Eh, see you?

-Pile driver, huh?

Come on, forget it.

Last time you ran like hell, and
you're saying that you're good.

-What a joke.

Who do you think I am?

I'm a lion.

-I think you better let
our girls teach you.

You want to try it, huh?

-Those girls?

I don't like them.

They're all dogs.

See you later.

Bye.

-Come on.

This way, please.

-Oh?

Oh, yeah.

Oh wow.

Let me try, huh?

Oh, same as usual.

[LAUGH]

-Hey mister, new arrivals.

Come on, this way.

Come on.

They're beautiful.

-I'm not interested.

-Come on, quick.

-Master, try some more soup.

It's not bad.

-What's going on?

Where did you get the
money for this meal from?

-Well this-- the business
is good, more tips.

And the customers,
they treat me well.

Hey, cheers.

Master--

-It's nothing.

Go and get me the blue bottle
which is under the bed there.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

TIGER (VOICEOVER): Strange.

How come Master's
got these things?

-Hey Tiger, how come it takes so
long to get the bottle for me?

-Oh, coming.

Master, here it is.

Say Master, did you know that
the monk mansion is possessed?

-Monk mansion-- who said that?

-A drunkard named Chin.

-Silly nonsense.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

-This style is to
try to train you

to get the goal up
in the high place.

-Huh?

Master, that's easy.

I'm good at that.

-Wait.

-Master, what's this?

Master, this is oil.

-Go.

-OK.

Hey!

[MUSIC PLAYING]

-Oh spare me.

Master, spare me, spare me.

Master-- Master, spare me.

Stop it.

I give up, Master.

I give up.

I give up.

Spare me, Master.

Master, sp--

[YELL]

-Are you blind?

Hey.

-I have nothing to do with you.

Why are you following me?

Ah last time I let you go.

Why have you come back?

[LAUGH]

Hey, I'm really sorry, sir.

-Yeah young fellow,
watch your way.

Don't you see I'm a blind man?

Hey, don't touch my stick.

You again, run.

Oh sorry.

Come on.

Have a seat.

-Sir, I'm looking for
a blind fortune teller.

Is that you?

-Well I'm a blind
fortune teller.

Who is your master?

-My master is--
what's it to you?

-Hey, you tell me.

Maybe I could help you.

-What are you saying?

-Oh I can read
your life for free.

Is that good enough?

TIGER (VOICEOVER): Master asked
me to look for the blind guy.

He may be the one.

-Well my master is Kol Tai.

He is the leader of
the beggars in here.

-OK.

I will read your
life right away.

Your birthday is--

-Oh my birthday is
August 15, 1915.

-One, two, three,
four, five, six,

seven-- what do
you want to know?

-Well lately a bunch of
ninja are trying to kill me.

I wonder what's going on.

That's why I came
to you for help.

-Oh this is because you have
all these troubles in your life.

Stay close to one flower.

You will have seven dangerous
moments to go through.

If not, you will die.

-So how do I get through them?

-Hm, with plum flower.

-Plum flower?

-Yes.

-Hm, plum flower.

Plum flower can
help me with this.

Plum flower can help
me with all this?

But what is plum flower?

Ah, it might mean a girl
But I can't touch a girl.

I've been saving it for
just the right girl.

Hm, plum flower-- What
it is plum flower?

What is the damn thing?

What a joke.

Ow.

Plum flower, plum
flower, plum flower--

-Are you calling me?

You must be desperate.

-Leave me alone.

-Oh, come on.

What's the matter?

If you're desperate,
maybe I can help.

I haven't got a
customer tonight anyway.

-Hey, no thanks, girl.

-This soup is for you.

Maybe after you drink
it, you'll become a man.

-Hey, get the hell out of here.

Go away.

Buzz off.

Go on, get the money.

Out, out!

What a cow.

Plum flower, plum
flower, plum flower--

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[STRUGGLING]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

-Anybody who has a plum
sign is your master.

-Yes.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

-Oh!

-Master.

-This is weird.

The blind guy said
I needed plum flower

to help me live through
this, to assist me in this.

I better go and ask the Master.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[SCREAM]

-Master!

Master, Master!

[MUSIC PLAYING]

Everybody, run for your lives.

Otherwise it will be too late.

Run!

Run, everybody!

Little Pan, Little Pan!

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[LAUGH]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

-Brother!

Brother-- Brother, I
looked for you everywhere.

You survived 18 years.

Brother, you survived 18 years.

I looked for you everywhere.

Brother, Brother, Brother!

[SCREAMING]

[FLUTE]

-Brother, Brother,
Brother, Brother,

Brother, Brother, Brother!

Brother, Brother, Brother!

Brother, Brother!

[FLUTE]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

-Ah, Master.

-It's time.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

-You are--

-I'm Fugiko.

My father used to
work for Princess.

[SCREAMING]

-What's your boss's name?

-I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know!

-I don't know!

-We don't know.

-Ladies, 10 years of this
research, all wasted.

-No, no, no!

-I ask you once more.

Is there any tattoo
on Tiger's body?

-No.

He doesn't have a
tattoo on his body.

No.

No really, he doesn't.

No!

-He doesn't.

[SCREAMING]

-18 years ago the
war on Plum Hill

destroyed my entire family.

Me and my sister were
following the Master

and looking for
the Young Master.

We seek revenge.

-What?

You mean the princess
is still alive?

-Yes, she is.

-Master!

-Tiger!

-Let him go.

-Tiger!

-Don't worry about me, Master.

This guy gave me trouble before.

If he gives you
trouble, I'll kill him.

-No, Tiger!

Tiger!

Tiger, stop fighting.

He is one of us.

-Master, what are you saying?

-Young Master-- Tiger, let
me tell you everything.

40 years ago there were many
pirates and Japanese immigrants

living on the main
shore of mainland China.

Most of the Japanese
residents were Yo Hu La ninja.

Our village was destroyed.

It was destroyed by
a group of ninja.

Only three children
survived the massacre.

I am one of them.

The other is the
blind fortune teller.

Your-- your father is the third.

The one who kept us is also the
leader of that group of ninja.

He's the Grand
Master of them all.
