Jackie Chan Adventures (2000–2005): Season 2, Episode 27 - Demon World: Part 1 - full transcript

Shendu alters the Book of Ages, and changes history. In a world where demons rule, Jade remembers how things were, and must convince her Uncles to help her set things right.

Surprise!

Jade. Jade.

Mom, dad!

Hope you don't mind us
dropping in uninvited.

Cousin Jackie.

It's so good to see you again.

You have been such a
wonderful role model for Jade.

Oh, well, thank you. I... ow!

You take credit for
my good influence?

Uncle! Uncle! Uncle!

Is uncle everyone's uncle?



He's actually our cousin.

Aren't you?

What brings you
all to Hong Kong?

We've banished the last demon.

Demon?! Demon?!

Uh...

Uh, right.

Uh, the demon is the
name of a roller coaster

at the new Hong
Kong moose world.

Look at the cool watch
Jackie got me there.

Watch: Hey, hey, hey!
I'm Marlon moose.

Oh.

Please, have a seat.
We will make tea.

Wipe your feet.



Easy, t. If mom and dad find
out about all this demon stuff,

there's no way they'll
let me stay with Jackie.

Ah, ancient history.
The portals are sealed,

the demons have been banished...

Even shendu is no more.

Aah!

Stop!

What is it now, shendu?!

Admittedly, I have failed
you, my siblings.

Aah!

But I may yet save you as well.

We can all regain our freedom,

and even reclaim the
centuries wasted in this void,

if you allow me to
pursue one last recourse.

Ha! And that would be?

The book of ages.

(All gasp)

Ludicrous.

Even we never dared
to tamper with that.

You risk altering the
very fabric of reality.

Am I to assume this reality
pleases you, sister?

Hmm. These are desperate times.

Then I will make things right.

All you need do is
allow me to once more

depart from this realm
and possess a human.

The right human.

More tea?

Oh.

Jackie?

(Gasps) My tea cup!

Quickly, before it stains.

Shendu: A broken tea
cup is the least of...

A dem...

Well, this was fun. Gotta go.

You are leaving? So soon?

We'll be back.
It's just, um, Jackie's, um...

Allergic... Yeah, uh...

(muffled threats)

Um, the tea makes
his eyes all red.

(Shendu struggling)
What is he saying?

Uh, thank you very much.
Good-bye!

Uhh!

Aah! Hey.

(Both gasp) So reckless.

(Groans) Quickly.

Jade...

You are not going
anywhere but to your room.

You are moving back home
with us immediately!

I am?

We are very sorry, Jade,

but it seems it
is unsafe for you

to remain with cousin Jackie.

He is clearly a troublemaker.

Jackie's not a troublemaker...

But he is in trouble.

I could not find Jackie.

Me, neither.

(Sighs) Same here.

Jade. Jade?

(Cell phone rings)

Hello?

Jade! Jackie?!

I'm at the airport.
Shendu's flying to Australia.

Australia? Why?

Unh. He... ooh...

Shendu: You will
find out soon enough.

Jackie? Jackie!

Captain black,
requesting satellite surveillance

to track Jackie.
Yeah, that's right, Jackie.

And we're gonna need a jet.
A fast one.

The book is close at hand.

(Chanting)

Jackie!

Unh!

Whoa.

Don't know what you're doin',

but it can't be good.

(Gasps)

Shendu: Ah, here we are.

The book of ages,
where all history is magically recorded.

History lesson's over, shendu!

Whoa... unh!

So it is written,
so it shall be.

(All gasp)

Jade. Jade.

Mom? Dad?

What are you doing here?

Uh, Hong Kong moose world?

Why aren't you at the palace?

And where did you find
those strange clothes?

I was gonna ask you
two the same thing.

And what do you
have in your hand?

(Musical fanfare plays)

Hurry. We must pay our respects.

Respects? To who?

What's going... On?

Jade, it is forbidden. Get down.

(Gasps)

Shendu!

Shendu's alive?

I gotta tell... (Gasps)

Jackie?

Jackie, your hair.
What are you doing?!

Hmmph!

Your job.

Sweeping dragon doo-doo?

Where have you been, Jade?
Where is your uniform?

Um, why, exactly,
do we have to wear uniforms?

Because it is required
of all servants

of the supreme ruler,

his majestic
highness, lord shendu.

Are you telling me
shendu rules the world?

Oh, of course not.

Each of the 8 emperors
has his or her own domain.

Since when?

Since the Dawn of history.

What is wrong with you today?

History.

Uncle said that book of ages

magically recorded history.

When shendu wrote in it,
he must have rewrote the past

so he was never destroyed,

and the demons were never
banished through their portals.

And now... (Gasps)

I'm in demon world!

Jackie, we gotta talk.

Jackie?

Jackie? Where'd you... whoa!

Today you must scrub
master's bath chamber.

No way!

Then fill his tub
with fresh muck.

Eww! (Gags)

And it's talonsday,

so don't forget to
trim master's toenails.

Jackie, listen to me!

I don't work for shendu,
and neither do you.

Demons don't rule the
world, humans do.

The demons were banished
into the netherworld

by the 8 immortals
a long time ago.

Then they got out,
and we banished 'em again.

But shendu possessed you,
found this magic book, changed the past,

and now none of
that ever happened.

That's crazy, Jade.
You're crazy.

Humans ruling the world!

It's true. We built cities,
with cars and computers and...

My watch. Look at my watch.

What's a watch?

Watch: Hey, hey, hey!
I'm Marlon moose.

Aah!

Magic is outlawed.
You know that.

It's not magic, it's technology.

Human technology.
And you gave this watch to me.

But I guess you
wouldn't remember that.

Jade, if what you say is true,
why don't I remember any of it?

I don't know. Maybe... (Gasps)

"And Jade chan became a wily
accomplice in the battle versus evil."

This is from the book,
and it's about me.

It didn't get rewritten,
so neither did I.

That's why I remember.

And that's why I'm still
wearing these clothes.

(Gong sounds)

The dinner gong.
Quickly, you must change into these

before master sees you.

(Sighs) Guess I
don't exactly blend.

Better keep my life
story someplace safe.

Jackie, where'd you go?

Jackie?

Dance, my jesters. Dance!

Ow! Ooh! Hot! Hot! Hot!

Shendu: Dance!

No way.

You!

Uh...

Heh heh.

Why do you not bow?

Uh... oh-uh... yes...

Y-your scariness,
please excuse my slow-witted niece.

Uh... unh!

If she were not excused,
she would be in flames.

Now fetch my dinner!

Yes, master.

Jackie.

(Clears throat) Tasty treats
for his glorious excellence.

What a good slave you
make, Jackie chan.

My Joy is to serve you, master.

Mmm.

Keeping one's enemies
close is not just wise,

it is gratifying.

Shendu remembers the
way things were, too.

Child!

Uh, yes, master?

It's talonsday.

Gross!

(Sighs) You forgot
master's clippings.

Jackie, there is no way I am
ever going near his feet again!

And shendu treats you
like a dog on a leash.

I can't stand it.

Well, what can I do?

I'm just a food servant.
His slave.

The Jackie chan I knew
was nobody's whipping boy.

He was a hero.

He was?

And you can be again, Jackie.
Help me fix history.

Help me rewrite the book.

(Wheezing)

Which way?

But servants aren't
allowed in the library.

I told you, we aren't servants.

Jade, be careful.

Whoa.

Ow!

Get out!

Uncle?

Only master's library
boys allowed in here.

Uncle, we need your help.

We're looking for a book.

Forbidden!
These books are filled with magic.

Even I am not
allowed to read them.

The book of ages...

Never heard of it.

Are you sure?

Maybe it's over here.

No, it is not.

How about here? Not there.

Well, maybe over here.

No. I have been library
boy for 60 years.

I am sure.

Really? Really.

In that case...

(Gasps) Forbidden magic!

Relax, it's just an atlas.

If the book's not here
in shendu's library,

there's only one other
place it could be.

Australia.

Oi-ya! No man's land.

That continent is forbidden.

There is nothing there, Jade.
Just a fortress.

(Scoffs) Fortresses
are usually built

to protect something. Duh!

But it is said that all who approach
the fortress will be destroyed.

Well, we have to get
inside it somehow.

Why?

'Cause shendu used
the book of ages

to rewrite reality.

That is crazy.

You do not believe her, do you?

(Sighs) There is one
thing that I believe.

Demons ruling the
world is a bad thing.

Cool. Look, uncle,
I can prove I'm telling the truth.

Watch: Hey, hey, hey!
I'm Marlon moose.

Ayah!

(Scream echoing)

Shh. You will alert the...

(wind howls)

(Whispering) Shadowkhan!

She opened the book.

Heh. Get 'em, Jackie!

Get them?

You know, hah! Heeyah!
Hoowah! Huh! Hi-yah!

Huh! Hi-yah!

Oh! The martial
arts are outlawed.

I do not know how to fight.

Serious?

But I do know how to run!

Uhh!

Uhh! My hair!

You were due for a trim.

Wait!

This way!

Er, this way!

The front door.

(Both gasp)

Uh, the side door.

Don't suppose
there's a back door?

Jade: Wait for me!

Cool!

Master's magic chamber.

Entrance to this room
is punishable by... uhh.

(Uncle chanting)

Huh? Uncle! (Gasps)

You saved our... ow!

What choice did I have?!
You are family.

A chi spell?

Thought you weren't allowed
to read the forbidden books.

I do not read. I... I skim.

We must leave, uncle.

It is only a matter of time
before shendu discovers

you use magic to...

Kibosh his ninjas?

But where will we go?

All aboard the Jade
express to Australia.

Oh, we are doomed!

Even if we escape from here,

we have no way to
journey to no man's land.

The talismans would sure help.

What talismans? What talismans?

Uncle, let me reacquaint you
with a little magic trick

you once knew.

This'll let us grab
the 12 talismans

that give shendu
his magical powers.

There is no such thing!

Watch me.

Believe me now?

Chan?!

Oh!

Jackie!

Aaaahhhhh!

Jackie!

Hey, Jackie.

Yes?

How many different dialects
of Chinese do you speak?

Oh, cantonese... Lei ho ma?

Mandarin... (Speaking mandarin)

Chengdu... (Speaking chengdu)

Shanghai... (Speaking Shanghai)

Thai... (Speaking thai)

Very good Korean.
Ok English... How are you?

Japanese, of course...
(Speaking Japanese)

Spanish... Cmo ests?

Morocco... (Speaking arabic)

Russian... (Speaking Russian)

Unh! What... what happened?

Now I'm mixed up.
