NightMan (1997–1999): Season 1, Episode 15 - House of Soul - full transcript
[THEME MUSIC PLAYING]
MAN: Great. Right over there.
[HORSE SNORTING]
Yeah, that was on board.
You may call this
a bribe, inspector,
but I call it the price
of freedom.
I have no idea what'’s
in this heathen cargo.
But let it be someone
else'’s affliction now.
Chop chop. Get
that benighted baggage
off my ship.
Ever since we shoved off
from Shanghai
this voyage has been cursed.
[BELL DINGING]
Calm seas suddenly
become raging storms.
Six good men
pitched overboard.
Cursed I tell you.
Good riddance.
[CHATTERING]
Well, well.
What have we here?
Attempting to steal
what I'’ve already stolen.
We not steal
treasure, Mr. Leland.
We bring to your estate
in morning.
These streets,
Chinatown.
Very dangerous.
Yes, for you.
[GASPS]
[HORSES SNORTING]
[WOMAN SCREAMING]
MAN: Earthquake!
Earthquake!
[SCREAMS]
[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING]
Okay, I surrender.
You'’re right.
The new speakers
do make a huge difference.
Yeah, yeah, they'’ll soon
be calling this place,
House of Soul,
Concert Hall.
Is Johnny around?
Yeah, but you
don'’t want to go near him.
He'’s composing.
Oh.
Thanks for the warning.
I have never met
a person more...
uncomposed who
is composing.
Yeah.
Oh, they'’re here.
Oh.
Welcome back.
Have you had time
to look over
the contracts?
Yes, I'’ve got them
right here.
So when'’s Jerry Springer
going to arrive?
Jerry Springer.
Just as soon
as we can make a deal.
TheJerry Springer.
You know like,
at the end of the show,
where Springer'’s final moment,
you know, that Jerry Springer.
I'’ve got
the provisions
right here.
What'’s going on, Jessica?
Nothing major.
Just your average everyday
megabucks TV deal.
Oh, megabucks TV deal?
Here?Mm-hmm.
Why?
Well, the House of Soul
was built over the ruins
of a 19th century temple,
on a street that was leveled
by the great earthquake
of 1906.
Temple, huh?
That'’s funny.
Place doesn'’t look
Jewish to me.
[LAUGHS] Jewish.
Chinese temple.
Lily is
an antiquities professor,
her research indicates
that right below us,
is the main street
of what used
to be original Chinatown.
So Jerry Springer
is going to do a TV special,
called Remarkable Tales
about unearthing this temple.
Cool.
Just as soon as we
can make a deal, Jessica.
So what do you say?
I don'’t know.
I mean,
all teasing aside,
it'’s not exactly
a megabucks TV deal.
But you can'’t just look
at the $5,000 location fee,
there'’s also the publicity
the House of Soul will get,
by being featured
on national TV
with Jerry Springer as host.
Will he be around a lot?
Of course, Jerry'’s
wild about the project.
And he just loves
Johnny Domino'’s music.
Who is Johnny Domino?
Well, he is a saxophonist
and he'’s a good one.
You couldn'’t get Kenny G?
It doesn'’t matter,
he'’s just part of
the flashy background.
What'’s special about this
special is the untold wealth
of buried ancient treasure.
Yeah, right,
tell that to Geraldo.
But I'’ve got
documentation, Jerry.
We'’re looking
at a 30 share.
Huge demos.
I also figure it'’s a potential
seven figure profit.
What time you say
the call was?
ALEXANDRA: 8:00 a.m.
tomorrow morning.
JERRY:
The House of Soul,
by night home to hippest
of the Bay City'’s hip.
Okay, now we'’ll cut in
some shots of Johnny Domino
and the patrons,
the band,
yada-yada-yada.
Okay, and then,
by day, today, a portal
to the mysterious
and exotic world
of ancient Chinatown.
A Chinatown like
you'’ve never seen.
Until now.
Okay, let me see
the script.
This is really exciting.
[LAUGHS] It will be
even better when
we make a discovery.
Uh, excuse me,
pardon me,
if Jerry has any special
security needs
while he'’s in town
just give me a call.
Frank Dominus.Yeah.
Okay, done.
DIRECTOR: Stand by,
three, two, one...
What are you gonna do?
It'’s been a slow month.
JERRY: But first we go
back to that fateful day
of April 18th, 1906,
when the face of the city
was forever changed.
Cut.
Okay, then we'’ll throw
in some of that old
earthquake stuff.
And shake, rattle
and roll, and then...
Then we go to location
number two.
I wanna know exactly how
the excavation is proceeding.
When they find the temple,
get with me right away,
and I'’ll double this.
I wanna get there in time,
be able to reclaim
my family'’s property
from them, okay?
Don'’t worry, you will.
RALEIGH: Combinations
of months of research, huh?
Years, my great uncle
told me about this
place before he died.
The famous
Temple of the Sun.
Ever since I'’ve immersed
myself in old books,
city surveys, building
plans, anything,
to pinpoint
the exact location.
Beneath this floor
we'’ll discover the street
which leads
to the buried treasures,
of ancient Chinatown.
Jerry keeps talking
about buried treasure,
I thought he was looking
for a historical Chinese
monument to uncover.
Yeah,
I noticed that.
I think we'’ve got
something here.
I'’m hitting wood
and I can feel air
coming up from underneath.
Great, now if we could
just clear,
camera range and let Jerry
make the discovery.
Okay, we are nearing
the end now of this
remarkable tale.
Follow me to the treasures
of the Temple of the Sun.
[GASPS]
ALEXANDRA:
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Hey, Jerry.Poor Jerry.
Are you getting this?
FRANK: Jerry,
man, you okay?
Somebody get a ladder
over here. Get a ladder
over here.
Are you guys
okay down there?
You could'’ve
killed yourself.I'’m okay. Yeah.
Just my leg. Oh.
Watch the first step.
It'’s a doozy.
Alexandra, you didn'’t get
that on camera, did
you, my fall?
Javier! Shut that off!
Of course not, Jer.
What is this?
FRANK: Looks like a city
all on it'’s own, doesn't it?
[GROANS]
You know what, Raleigh,
I'’m gonna take him...
You take care of this.Sure.
I got to go. I got
to take care of this leg.
Put some ice on this thing.
Before it swells.
This is incredible.
We found it.
According to my research,
this is part of the street
where the temple stood.
Do you know what that means?
That this treasure is ours.
What treasure?
Didn'’t I mention it?
No, you seemed to have
overlooked that small detail.
It seemed like a long
shot at the time.
Time to pay off
that long shot, Lily.
All right, according
to my research,
there may well
be a treasure trove
of Chinese antiquities
down here somewhere.
They were stolen
from Beijing in 1906,
and shipped over here right
before the earthquake hit.
They'’re rumored to be hidden
in the Temple of the Sun.
Can you spell
renegotiation,
Ms. Tremaine.
I don'’t think so,
Jessica,
in the contract,
paragraph 15,
subsection E,
is what I'’d like
to refer to as,
"the treasure clause."
Raleigh.
What do I do here?
I think that maybe
we should talk to Johnny.
What does a saxophone player
have to do with a fortune
and buried treasure?
I don'’t know, if anybody
has a way of keeping
people honest,
he knows what
they'’re really up to.
He'’s a musician.
He cuts a record
and he could be a millionaire,
overnight, me...
I'’m a poor business woman,
eking out a living.
This may be my only
chance ever to strike
it rich.
If we drag Johnny
into this,
he might think
he'’s entitled to a cut.
Point.
But if that lady is right,
you'’re entitled to nothing.
I know.However,
I may have a way
back in, for us.
"Us"?
Engineers don'’t get many
chances to strike it rich
either, Jessica.
How much?Fifty-fifty.
"Fifty-fifty"!
A 100 percent of nothing
is nothing, right now,
you'’re entitled to nothing.
All right.
Fifty-fifty.
But only if you'’re idea works.
It'’s gonna work.
Okay, everybody out.
What?
What are you
talking about?
We have a contract.
It'’s iron clad.
RALEIGH: I'’m sorry,
but your excavation
has already caused
one potentially
serious accident.
Now, Jessica clearly
has a right
to shut down this
operation until it'’s made safe.
That way she won'’t
be held liable.
All right, ladies.
This show is canceled
until further notice.
Everyone, out.
Wait, wait. I don'’t
really believe you
have the right to do this.
Ah, you heard the lady.
Out.Out.
Out.
[LAUGHS]
[THEME MUSIC PLAYING]
If you think
you can override
my treasure clause
by denying me access...
I will be
willing to bet,
that your treasure clause
only kicks in if you find
the treasure first.
However, this building,
belongs to Jessica.
Well, keep in mind
that it'’s just
the building
that'’s yours.
Let'’s go.
Wow.
Whoof.
Thank you.
That was slick.
No problem.
Partner.
Now, we'’ve got
to figure out
how to get
to the treasure first.
Without letting
the whole world
in on it.
It'’s our secret.
Our secret.
FRANK: Hey, guys.
You don'’t intend to leave
that fortune
in buried treasure down there
unsecured, do you?
Frank. What are
you talking about?
I am talking about
the treasure I just heard
that construction guy
telling somebody about
on the phone in the men'’s room.
Who knows who that guy down
there was talking to
at the other end of the phone.
See.
Plans on file with
the city show that
this basement
is 15 feet lower
than the one
next door.
So that should put us
at the same level
as the old street.
That'’s about it.
It is the same basic
distance from the street
as the area we
uncovered today.
You break through that wall,
you'’re in old Chinatown.
Get the speed drills.
MAN: Okay, boss.
Frank, there
is no treasure.
At least not yet anyway.
FRANK: Uh-huh, well,
I just thought maybe
you might wanna hire
a security expert
to secure access to that,
non-treasure
from unwanted intruders.
For how much?
Well, there'’s three of us,
I... how about a third?
BOTH: "A third"?
Yeah.
Just for security?
Have you ever been
around anybody who
got treasure fever?
BOTH: No.
They become animals.
They turn on their own
loved ones, it isn'’t pretty.
Now, I'’ll see
to it that no one
comes near our treasure.
[SAXOPHONE MUSIC PLAYING]
[AUDIENCE CLAPPING]
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Can I help you?
Oh, well,
no, well,
we'’re supposed
to meet Ms. Rogers
about a TV show here
at the House of Soul
and we can'’t
seem to find her.
What TV show
is that?
A Jerry Springer
special.
I'’m surprised
she didn'’t mention
it to you
because you'’re
supposed
to be on it.
Oh.
Follow me to the treasures
of the Temple of the Sun.
Yeah, Jesse'’s
all business.
If she said she
was gonna be here,
she'’ll be here.
Okay, well, thanks.
Appreciate it.Sure, sure.
There may well
be a treasure trove
of Chinese
antiquities down
here somewhere.
Are you sure that
this is gonna work?
Of course, this
is going to work.
[JESSICA GASPS]
RALEIGH: Oops, no panic.
I am sorry, I'’ll find it.
What are you
doing here?
My job.
You hired me to protect
this place, didn'’t you?
Remember?
Your job, huh?
Since when is
a metal detector
your weapon of choice?
FRANK: How can I
protect something
if I don'’t know where it is.
Besides what is that?
Security system.
That'’s funny.
It looks just like
that X-ray setup
the archaeologists use
to discover
the hidden chambers
of King Tut in the pyramids.
[CHUCKLES]
See you'’re not
the only ones who
watch the History channel.
We'’re all here
for the same reason.
To find the treasure.
If there is one.
I can'’t believe that
you'’re trying to cut me out.
We weren'’t. Exactly.
Time is everything.
If word of this treasure
would leak out...
Don'’t even think like that.
Wait. [GASPS] I just
had a horrible thought.
What if Lily'’s
calculations
were just
a little bit off.
And the good stuff,
was under
the building
next door.
What we have come
to reclaim
is inside somewhere.
Let'’s go in
and take it.
Not yet.
Chinese people have waited
almost 100 years
for their treasure.
We can wait a little
while longer.
[ENGINE STARTING]
Whoa.
Hey, what is this?
JESSICA: What is it?
FRANK: It looks like
an old carriage.
JESSICA: I see that.
What'’s inside?
RALEIGH: Who'’s inside?
[GASPS]
FRANK: Hey, let me see that.
In the light.
Nah, it'’s just
an old horse bone.
Somebody should
look inside.
You mean me?
RALEIGH: Uh-huh. Yeah.
JESSICA: We'’re getting close.
Jerry and Alexandra might pay
some big bucks for this.
Cool, cool, cool.
You rolling?
Mm-hmm.
It'’s stuck.
[MYSTICAL INSTRUMENTAL
MUSIC PLAYING]
What was that?What?
What was what?
Nothing, nothing.
I just saw...
weird shadows
or something.
Raleigh, would
you get a grip?
There'’s nothing here.
[SCREAMS]
[JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING]
Listen, we can'’t
find Jessica.
She'’s up to something...
Wait a minute.
I think I found her.
Hey, where are you going?
Where have you been?
Oh, we found something
down there.
A skeleton.
"A skeleton"?
What skeleton?
The skeleton that
Frank was dancing with.
Raleigh will tell you
about it. I am gonna
grab something to drink.
[CHEERING AND APPLAUDING]
JOHNNY: Thank you.
Thank you very much.
We'’ll be back in ten.
Where was this skeleton?
In the carriage.
What carriage?
The one that... never mind.
You know, I am beginning
to think this whole treasure
thing is a curse.
Curses equals ratings.
You know, you'’re acting
awfully strange.
You know, I think
that she knows
something that we don'’t.
Uh-huh.All right.
There is a rumor
of a curse.
But as a person of science,
I didn'’t think
it was worth mentioning.
Science.
A treasure.
A curse, we could be talking
network'’s sweep show here.
Did you mention something
about a renegotiation?
Why do we need you?
Whoa, whoa, wait
now, Jessica.
The contract that
you signed may not
hold up in a court of law
but then again
you never know.
And...And I know.
A 100 percent of nothing
is nothing.
All right.RALEIGH: Cool.
But after this,
no more partners.
We tell no one else.
Is it a private party?
Can anyone join in?
What, did
someone die?
What on earth are you
talking about?
That'’s right.
What, people can'’t
stand around
and have a good time without
you being the center
of attention or something, what?
Okay, wow, I guess
this party isn'’t having
that much fun.
Good luck trying
to find your treasure.
I told you not
to tell anybody.
I didn'’t say anything
to him, Jessica.
JESSICA: Then who did?
What?
What'’s on
your mind, kid?
I was wondering about
treasure and how
it affects people.
Do you remember that old
movie with Humphrey Bogart?
Yeah, yeah. The Treasure
of the Sierra Madre.
Yeah.
The desire for gold,
drove most men crazy.
Yeah, well, you know,
it'’s funny what
the mere mention of
"priceless artifacts"
will do to some people.
I gotta go. I gotta go
wrap up some
of the sound equipment.
Let me know if you see
anything on that monitor.
What?
That monitor you got.
That'’s funny.
You'’re funny. Funny.
JERRY: Where is Mr. Skeleton?
I swear to you, Jerry,
it was right here.
LILY: That'’s it. The J.L.
J... J what?
J.L. This carriage belonged
to Jonathan Leland.
What is going on here?
Who is Jonathan Leland?
I'’m Jonathan Leland.
The fourth, that is.
Where did you come from?
My building next door.
Altman owns
the building next door.
Not anymore.
Wait a minute.
Who is Jonathan Leland
the first?
The baron who stole
the treasure in 1906.
Didn'’t I tell you this?
ALL: No!Sorry.
Anyway, Leland stole
the treasure originally...
That'’s not true.
He bought the treasure
from the thieves
who stole it
from the museum
in Beijing.
How do you know all this?
Your scholarly
research, Ms. Lily.
Who do you think anonymously
funded it in the first place.
Or didn'’t you really want
to know where that money
was coming from?
For you.
What'’s this?
A court order enjoining you
to cease and desist from any
treasure hunting until I...
Until you can steal it.
Until I can recover
the bones of
my great grandfather,
and give them
a decent burial.
Where do you think
those bones are anyway?
You can bet
they didn'’t walk
out of here.
JESSICA: Mr. Leland,
this is my property
and I am going to get
my own court order.
Fine, we can have our...
respective lawyers
battle this out
for the next 20 years,
or we can come to some
sort of mutual agreement.
Wait a minute.
No, we have
an arrangement with her.
He can'’t do that.
Yes, he can.
Twenty years
legal fees,
that'’s a real
treasure hunt.
[THUD]
Raleigh.
Hey, Raleigh.
Jessica?
Mr. Dominus.
This place is sealed
off, you know, nobody'’s
supposed to be down here.
Do you think I'’d simply
let the remains of
my great grandfather rot,
down here, did you?You'’re a little late,
aren'’t you?
[CHUCKLES]
Look, Mr. Dominus,
all I want
to do is retrieve
the bones
for decent burial.
Be in and out fast,
and look,
here'’s a little
something for you.
What do you think
you'’re doing? [GRUNTS]
According to Lily'’s
research, if we find
the sword of Kwai Chan,
the rest
of the treasure
is ours.
What?
What'’s the matter?
MAN: No way.
Don'’t stand there,
go get him.
Come on, go, go.
[GUNSHOTS]
[SCREAMS]
[GRUNTS]
Who sucker punched me?
Come on back here
and I'’ll kick your...
Good lord.
RALEIGH: Frank!
Frank, where did
you go, man?
Let'’s get out
of here, man.
Come on, let'’s go, there's
a huge thing down there.
Whoa, Frank,
calm down.
Get a grip. Okay, now
what kind of thing?
I don'’t know,
man, it'’s tall,
it'’s got glowing eyes,
I tell ya,
a skeleton
is one thing,
but this ain'’t
for real, man.
Yeah, of course, man,
I am right behind you.
Let'’s go.Scaredy-cat.
All right, come on
out, Johnny.
Come on out, I shouldn'’t
have went up to the loft,
you read my thoughts,
decided to get even
with us.
Maybe we'’re getting a little
greedy, but I tell you what,
cut you in on a little piece
of it if you come on out.
Come on, Johnny.
You scared the hell out
of your dad, now come on.
Oh, Johnny.
Please, please, tell
me that is you.
JOHNNY: Raleigh. Raleigh!
Right.
Oh, Johnny, there'’s
something down...
Here. Tell me I didn'’t
see what I just saw.
[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING]
Didn'’t I mention that there
was a ghost associated
with this curse?
A legendary
5th century warrior,
Kwai Chan,
allegedly guards
the treasure.
Now, no enlightened
modern person
would believe such
an absurdity.
Besides, I didn'’t wanna
scare anybody.
You didn'’t have to.
Well, it was no ghost
that gave me this bump
on my head, I know that.
It'’s that Leland punk.
That still didn'’t explain
the big guy in the armor.
JESSICA: Well,
I'’ve got a theory.
Maybe Leland
hired a goon,
to dress up like
this ghost warrior,
scare everybody off, so that
he could find the treasure.
Except it backfired
on him when Frank
busted him, so then,
Leland pretended
to run
from the ghost warrior,
to make it look good.
I saw that one on Scooby Doo.
Or there really
is a ghost warrior,
who will kill anyone
who tries to steal
the treasure.
Yeah, right.
What do you
think, Johnny?
[SCREAMS]
I think there'’s only
one way to find out the truth.
And why do I get
the feeling that you'’re
not gonna share it with me?
It'’s time for my next set.
Catch you guys later.
Excuse me. Johnny.
RALEIGH:
I know what
you'’re thinking.
It'’s time
for Night Man.
But do you think that
it'’s wise for our man
to show up,
with all these
cameras around?
He might not
have a choice.
JERRY: I'’m not so sure
it'’s a wise idea
to be going back
down there again.
But, Jerry, think
of the elements.
A treasure, a curse.
A ghost.
Your point?
ALEXANDRA: Every TV
in the country will
be tuned in.
You could go down
there alone,
with just Javier.
You know,
guerrilla journalism,
it'’s all the rage.
What about
the restraining order?
When has anything ever
restrained Jerry Springer.
We'’re gonna get in
and get out, Javier.
Find the treasure while
Alexandra stalls from upstairs.
Who knows
maybe we will...
maybe we'’ll run
into a ghost or two, huh.
What!
I am only kidding.
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
It'’s only a joke.
Geez.
We need something
to draw him out.
Help! Help! The master...
he'’s got Jerry.
Go. Go.
Did you hear?
We'’ve got to save Jerry.
He'’s a celebrity.
Hold on now.
We are going
to take care of this.
I'’m gonna
handle this,
all right?
[JERRY GROANING]Easy, you'’re going
to be all right.
It was...
it was as big as...
Shaq on steroids.
Right.Yeah, man.
As much as you
get bumped around
it'’s a good thing you got
so much hair up there.Yeah.
That'’s not
a piece, is it?
No!
God, I haven'’t been
banged around this much
since we did
that feuding
trailer park show.
Oh, yeah, I saw that.Oh.
Yeah.
Wait.
I'’m on your side.
Let me help you.
Together, we can
get your treasure back.
LILY: Oh, my God.
[PANTING]
I found the sword.
The temple.
[FOOTSTEPS]
JERRY: I don'’t know
what that was.
Some kind of elaborate hoax.
Oh, no, this
isn'’t a hoax.
How do you know? How do
I know this isn'’t some
kind of a set up.
That isn'’t a set up.
Jonathan Leland, the fourth.
I have great news.
I found the sword.
It points towards
the temple ruins
just like my
great uncle said.
At last,
the treasure is ours.
There is one little
problem though.
Kwai Chan.
Don'’t tell me about
the ghost warrior.
There'’s no time
for superstitions.
We'’ve already begun
dealing with the real
enemies of our people.
Looks like Leland the fourth
couldn'’t stay away
from the treasure hunt.
Ghost nailed him.
Although I pity the guy
that tries to tell that theory
to Lieutenant Dann.
I don'’t know.
I really didn'’t get
that sort of vibe
from that ghost...
whatever it is.
No, this is different,
Alexandra. The risk
is just too great.
But, Jerry, this could
be the first 90 share
in television history.
We'’re talking,
not just a show,
we'’re talking mini series.JERRY: I know,
it'’s a miniseries.
We did it all the time.ALEXANDRA: Listen...
What?Don'’t forget...
that you survived
the death battle
with the ghost warrior.
I did, didn'’t I?
Yeah, so what do
you say, boss?
Sorry to break up
this little seance
but I'’m yellow-taping
that hole up there
which means I need
everybody out of here
now, okay?
FRANK: Hey, Charlie,
come here, will you?
Well, now what? What?Well, it'’s simple.
He said no one
through that hole.
But he didn'’t say
anything about
going through
the hole next door.
That'’s why I pay
you the big bucks.
[CHUCKLES]
See, the sword points
to the direction of the temple.
This way.
This way.
Isn'’t this amazing?
LING: Well done.
LILY: Come this way.
[LILY GASPING]
Congratulations,
comrade Liu.
You'’re a great patriot.
I'’m just happy that
we can return this treasure
back to the people of China.
But, of course.
Hurry and pack this up.
We must get
to the ship before dawn.
She was right.
There really is a treasure,
and the little scholar
is stealing it.
I never did trust her.
Do you know
what this means
if we can capture
this on tape?
TV immortality.
You follow them, I'’ll go
get Javier, and bring
the truck.
Okay, I'’ll stay with them
and give you directions
on the cell phone.
[BELT CHIRPING]
We'’re making a right now,
making a right on Madison.
A right on Madison.
Right! Right, right.
I recognize this.
Right, make a right.
[TIRES SCREECHING]
Okay, you make a left
on Bordon.
Left on... on Mordon?
No, not Mo... Bordon,
Bordon, like the milk,
whatever.
They'’re getting
near the docks now.
I can see they'’re getting
near... turning left,
on Calloway,
left on Calloway.
Towards the docks,
can you hear me?
Okay. I am gonna be hiding
down there. Here'’s the phone.
Tell Alexandra
and Javier to hurry up.
I wanna get this whole
thing on tape, got it?
Hurry.
Finally, the curse of the great
Kwai Chan can be at peace.
It'’s a shame though,
necessary I suppose that,
he had to kill Leland.
The ancestor of a thief
is still a thief.
[BELT CHIRPING]
[LASER BEAMING]
[ALL GROANING]
Unbelievable.
You. Who are you?
A friend, interested
in saving your treasure.
But we are returning
the treasure
to its rightful place.
It'’s true, yes.
This man is not taking
the treasure to Beijing.
He'’s selling it in Hong Kong.
He'’s the one
that killed Leland.
A kingdom for a camera.
Did you...
No one'’s gonna
believe this.
I'’d say it's time you
start telling the truth.
It'’s true.
And so what?
I am one of the new breed
of Chinese capitalists.
Haven'’t you heard?
There'’s no more future
in patriotism.
Nor treachery either.
Get them.
[GRUNTS]
[GUNSHOTS]
[GRUNTS]
Now he'’s taking bullets.
[LASER BEAMING]
[CRIES IN PAIN]
[SCREAMS]
[GUNSHOTS]
Unbelievable.
Get out of here.Let'’s move.
[YELLING]
I haven'’t seen anything
like this in my life.
We could have
this on camera.
If they don'’t get
here they'’re history.
I see the docks, I see
it right there, right there.
Pull up over there
on your left.JAVIER: Okay.
[GASPS] You'’ll never
get away with this.
The degree is not gonna
help you now, Lily.
You'’re my way
out of here.
Let'’s go for a ride.
No. No.
Please.
Now I'’ve got
a guy who flies.
Don'’t drop me.
Yes.
Shall we?
[SCREAMS]
Where'’s the damn camera?
ALEXANDRA: I don'’t see
them... Lets go this way.
Ghost ship.
Ah, Jesus.
The treasure
is safe at last.
Thank you, friend.
[SIRENS BLARING]
[INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER]
Sorry, we must'’ve made
a wrong turn.
Ah, it'’s okay.
It'’s all right.
Did we miss anything?
Did you miss anything?
No.
No, I told you,
it was...
that was no story.
No, no story.
You did
a good job, Raleigh.
Yeah.
Now the treasure will
finally find it'’s way
back home.
The treasure
and it'’s guardian.
Excuse me.
Hey, Jerry.
If you'’re ever
out this way again,
you know you might need
a little security.
Give me a call.
You can'’t be too
careful, you know.
What'’s the matter
with Jerry?
I don'’t know.
I'’ve never seen
him like this,
so quiet.
[THEME MUSIC PLAYING]
MAN: Great. Right over there.
[HORSE SNORTING]
Yeah, that was on board.
You may call this
a bribe, inspector,
but I call it the price
of freedom.
I have no idea what'’s
in this heathen cargo.
But let it be someone
else'’s affliction now.
Chop chop. Get
that benighted baggage
off my ship.
Ever since we shoved off
from Shanghai
this voyage has been cursed.
[BELL DINGING]
Calm seas suddenly
become raging storms.
Six good men
pitched overboard.
Cursed I tell you.
Good riddance.
[CHATTERING]
Well, well.
What have we here?
Attempting to steal
what I'’ve already stolen.
We not steal
treasure, Mr. Leland.
We bring to your estate
in morning.
These streets,
Chinatown.
Very dangerous.
Yes, for you.
[GASPS]
[HORSES SNORTING]
[WOMAN SCREAMING]
MAN: Earthquake!
Earthquake!
[SCREAMS]
[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING]
Okay, I surrender.
You'’re right.
The new speakers
do make a huge difference.
Yeah, yeah, they'’ll soon
be calling this place,
House of Soul,
Concert Hall.
Is Johnny around?
Yeah, but you
don'’t want to go near him.
He'’s composing.
Oh.
Thanks for the warning.
I have never met
a person more...
uncomposed who
is composing.
Yeah.
Oh, they'’re here.
Oh.
Welcome back.
Have you had time
to look over
the contracts?
Yes, I'’ve got them
right here.
So when'’s Jerry Springer
going to arrive?
Jerry Springer.
Just as soon
as we can make a deal.
TheJerry Springer.
You know like,
at the end of the show,
where Springer'’s final moment,
you know, that Jerry Springer.
I'’ve got
the provisions
right here.
What'’s going on, Jessica?
Nothing major.
Just your average everyday
megabucks TV deal.
Oh, megabucks TV deal?
Here?Mm-hmm.
Why?
Well, the House of Soul
was built over the ruins
of a 19th century temple,
on a street that was leveled
by the great earthquake
of 1906.
Temple, huh?
That'’s funny.
Place doesn'’t look
Jewish to me.
[LAUGHS] Jewish.
Chinese temple.
Lily is
an antiquities professor,
her research indicates
that right below us,
is the main street
of what used
to be original Chinatown.
So Jerry Springer
is going to do a TV special,
called Remarkable Tales
about unearthing this temple.
Cool.
Just as soon as we
can make a deal, Jessica.
So what do you say?
I don'’t know.
I mean,
all teasing aside,
it'’s not exactly
a megabucks TV deal.
But you can'’t just look
at the $5,000 location fee,
there'’s also the publicity
the House of Soul will get,
by being featured
on national TV
with Jerry Springer as host.
Will he be around a lot?
Of course, Jerry'’s
wild about the project.
And he just loves
Johnny Domino'’s music.
Who is Johnny Domino?
Well, he is a saxophonist
and he'’s a good one.
You couldn'’t get Kenny G?
It doesn'’t matter,
he'’s just part of
the flashy background.
What'’s special about this
special is the untold wealth
of buried ancient treasure.
Yeah, right,
tell that to Geraldo.
But I'’ve got
documentation, Jerry.
We'’re looking
at a 30 share.
Huge demos.
I also figure it'’s a potential
seven figure profit.
What time you say
the call was?
ALEXANDRA: 8:00 a.m.
tomorrow morning.
JERRY:
The House of Soul,
by night home to hippest
of the Bay City'’s hip.
Okay, now we'’ll cut in
some shots of Johnny Domino
and the patrons,
the band,
yada-yada-yada.
Okay, and then,
by day, today, a portal
to the mysterious
and exotic world
of ancient Chinatown.
A Chinatown like
you'’ve never seen.
Until now.
Okay, let me see
the script.
This is really exciting.
[LAUGHS] It will be
even better when
we make a discovery.
Uh, excuse me,
pardon me,
if Jerry has any special
security needs
while he'’s in town
just give me a call.
Frank Dominus.Yeah.
Okay, done.
DIRECTOR: Stand by,
three, two, one...
What are you gonna do?
It'’s been a slow month.
JERRY: But first we go
back to that fateful day
of April 18th, 1906,
when the face of the city
was forever changed.
Cut.
Okay, then we'’ll throw
in some of that old
earthquake stuff.
And shake, rattle
and roll, and then...
Then we go to location
number two.
I wanna know exactly how
the excavation is proceeding.
When they find the temple,
get with me right away,
and I'’ll double this.
I wanna get there in time,
be able to reclaim
my family'’s property
from them, okay?
Don'’t worry, you will.
RALEIGH: Combinations
of months of research, huh?
Years, my great uncle
told me about this
place before he died.
The famous
Temple of the Sun.
Ever since I'’ve immersed
myself in old books,
city surveys, building
plans, anything,
to pinpoint
the exact location.
Beneath this floor
we'’ll discover the street
which leads
to the buried treasures,
of ancient Chinatown.
Jerry keeps talking
about buried treasure,
I thought he was looking
for a historical Chinese
monument to uncover.
Yeah,
I noticed that.
I think we'’ve got
something here.
I'’m hitting wood
and I can feel air
coming up from underneath.
Great, now if we could
just clear,
camera range and let Jerry
make the discovery.
Okay, we are nearing
the end now of this
remarkable tale.
Follow me to the treasures
of the Temple of the Sun.
[GASPS]
ALEXANDRA:
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Hey, Jerry.Poor Jerry.
Are you getting this?
FRANK: Jerry,
man, you okay?
Somebody get a ladder
over here. Get a ladder
over here.
Are you guys
okay down there?
You could'’ve
killed yourself.I'’m okay. Yeah.
Just my leg. Oh.
Watch the first step.
It'’s a doozy.
Alexandra, you didn'’t get
that on camera, did
you, my fall?
Javier! Shut that off!
Of course not, Jer.
What is this?
FRANK: Looks like a city
all on it'’s own, doesn't it?
[GROANS]
You know what, Raleigh,
I'’m gonna take him...
You take care of this.Sure.
I got to go. I got
to take care of this leg.
Put some ice on this thing.
Before it swells.
This is incredible.
We found it.
According to my research,
this is part of the street
where the temple stood.
Do you know what that means?
That this treasure is ours.
What treasure?
Didn'’t I mention it?
No, you seemed to have
overlooked that small detail.
It seemed like a long
shot at the time.
Time to pay off
that long shot, Lily.
All right, according
to my research,
there may well
be a treasure trove
of Chinese antiquities
down here somewhere.
They were stolen
from Beijing in 1906,
and shipped over here right
before the earthquake hit.
They'’re rumored to be hidden
in the Temple of the Sun.
Can you spell
renegotiation,
Ms. Tremaine.
I don'’t think so,
Jessica,
in the contract,
paragraph 15,
subsection E,
is what I'’d like
to refer to as,
"the treasure clause."
Raleigh.
What do I do here?
I think that maybe
we should talk to Johnny.
What does a saxophone player
have to do with a fortune
and buried treasure?
I don'’t know, if anybody
has a way of keeping
people honest,
he knows what
they'’re really up to.
He'’s a musician.
He cuts a record
and he could be a millionaire,
overnight, me...
I'’m a poor business woman,
eking out a living.
This may be my only
chance ever to strike
it rich.
If we drag Johnny
into this,
he might think
he'’s entitled to a cut.
Point.
But if that lady is right,
you'’re entitled to nothing.
I know.However,
I may have a way
back in, for us.
"Us"?
Engineers don'’t get many
chances to strike it rich
either, Jessica.
How much?Fifty-fifty.
"Fifty-fifty"!
A 100 percent of nothing
is nothing, right now,
you'’re entitled to nothing.
All right.
Fifty-fifty.
But only if you'’re idea works.
It'’s gonna work.
Okay, everybody out.
What?
What are you
talking about?
We have a contract.
It'’s iron clad.
RALEIGH: I'’m sorry,
but your excavation
has already caused
one potentially
serious accident.
Now, Jessica clearly
has a right
to shut down this
operation until it'’s made safe.
That way she won'’t
be held liable.
All right, ladies.
This show is canceled
until further notice.
Everyone, out.
Wait, wait. I don'’t
really believe you
have the right to do this.
Ah, you heard the lady.
Out.Out.
Out.
[LAUGHS]
[THEME MUSIC PLAYING]
If you think
you can override
my treasure clause
by denying me access...
I will be
willing to bet,
that your treasure clause
only kicks in if you find
the treasure first.
However, this building,
belongs to Jessica.
Well, keep in mind
that it'’s just
the building
that'’s yours.
Let'’s go.
Wow.
Whoof.
Thank you.
That was slick.
No problem.
Partner.
Now, we'’ve got
to figure out
how to get
to the treasure first.
Without letting
the whole world
in on it.
It'’s our secret.
Our secret.
FRANK: Hey, guys.
You don'’t intend to leave
that fortune
in buried treasure down there
unsecured, do you?
Frank. What are
you talking about?
I am talking about
the treasure I just heard
that construction guy
telling somebody about
on the phone in the men'’s room.
Who knows who that guy down
there was talking to
at the other end of the phone.
See.
Plans on file with
the city show that
this basement
is 15 feet lower
than the one
next door.
So that should put us
at the same level
as the old street.
That'’s about it.
It is the same basic
distance from the street
as the area we
uncovered today.
You break through that wall,
you'’re in old Chinatown.
Get the speed drills.
MAN: Okay, boss.
Frank, there
is no treasure.
At least not yet anyway.
FRANK: Uh-huh, well,
I just thought maybe
you might wanna hire
a security expert
to secure access to that,
non-treasure
from unwanted intruders.
For how much?
Well, there'’s three of us,
I... how about a third?
BOTH: "A third"?
Yeah.
Just for security?
Have you ever been
around anybody who
got treasure fever?
BOTH: No.
They become animals.
They turn on their own
loved ones, it isn'’t pretty.
Now, I'’ll see
to it that no one
comes near our treasure.
[SAXOPHONE MUSIC PLAYING]
[AUDIENCE CLAPPING]
Thank you.
Thank you very much.
Can I help you?
Oh, well,
no, well,
we'’re supposed
to meet Ms. Rogers
about a TV show here
at the House of Soul
and we can'’t
seem to find her.
What TV show
is that?
A Jerry Springer
special.
I'’m surprised
she didn'’t mention
it to you
because you'’re
supposed
to be on it.
Oh.
Follow me to the treasures
of the Temple of the Sun.
Yeah, Jesse'’s
all business.
If she said she
was gonna be here,
she'’ll be here.
Okay, well, thanks.
Appreciate it.Sure, sure.
There may well
be a treasure trove
of Chinese
antiquities down
here somewhere.
Are you sure that
this is gonna work?
Of course, this
is going to work.
[JESSICA GASPS]
RALEIGH: Oops, no panic.
I am sorry, I'’ll find it.
What are you
doing here?
My job.
You hired me to protect
this place, didn'’t you?
Remember?
Your job, huh?
Since when is
a metal detector
your weapon of choice?
FRANK: How can I
protect something
if I don'’t know where it is.
Besides what is that?
Security system.
That'’s funny.
It looks just like
that X-ray setup
the archaeologists use
to discover
the hidden chambers
of King Tut in the pyramids.
[CHUCKLES]
See you'’re not
the only ones who
watch the History channel.
We'’re all here
for the same reason.
To find the treasure.
If there is one.
I can'’t believe that
you'’re trying to cut me out.
We weren'’t. Exactly.
Time is everything.
If word of this treasure
would leak out...
Don'’t even think like that.
Wait. [GASPS] I just
had a horrible thought.
What if Lily'’s
calculations
were just
a little bit off.
And the good stuff,
was under
the building
next door.
What we have come
to reclaim
is inside somewhere.
Let'’s go in
and take it.
Not yet.
Chinese people have waited
almost 100 years
for their treasure.
We can wait a little
while longer.
[ENGINE STARTING]
Whoa.
Hey, what is this?
JESSICA: What is it?
FRANK: It looks like
an old carriage.
JESSICA: I see that.
What'’s inside?
RALEIGH: Who'’s inside?
[GASPS]
FRANK: Hey, let me see that.
In the light.
Nah, it'’s just
an old horse bone.
Somebody should
look inside.
You mean me?
RALEIGH: Uh-huh. Yeah.
JESSICA: We'’re getting close.
Jerry and Alexandra might pay
some big bucks for this.
Cool, cool, cool.
You rolling?
Mm-hmm.
It'’s stuck.
[MYSTICAL INSTRUMENTAL
MUSIC PLAYING]
What was that?What?
What was what?
Nothing, nothing.
I just saw...
weird shadows
or something.
Raleigh, would
you get a grip?
There'’s nothing here.
[SCREAMS]
[JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING]
Listen, we can'’t
find Jessica.
She'’s up to something...
Wait a minute.
I think I found her.
Hey, where are you going?
Where have you been?
Oh, we found something
down there.
A skeleton.
"A skeleton"?
What skeleton?
The skeleton that
Frank was dancing with.
Raleigh will tell you
about it. I am gonna
grab something to drink.
[CHEERING AND APPLAUDING]
JOHNNY: Thank you.
Thank you very much.
We'’ll be back in ten.
Where was this skeleton?
In the carriage.
What carriage?
The one that... never mind.
You know, I am beginning
to think this whole treasure
thing is a curse.
Curses equals ratings.
You know, you'’re acting
awfully strange.
You know, I think
that she knows
something that we don'’t.
Uh-huh.All right.
There is a rumor
of a curse.
But as a person of science,
I didn'’t think
it was worth mentioning.
Science.
A treasure.
A curse, we could be talking
network'’s sweep show here.
Did you mention something
about a renegotiation?
Why do we need you?
Whoa, whoa, wait
now, Jessica.
The contract that
you signed may not
hold up in a court of law
but then again
you never know.
And...And I know.
A 100 percent of nothing
is nothing.
All right.RALEIGH: Cool.
But after this,
no more partners.
We tell no one else.
Is it a private party?
Can anyone join in?
What, did
someone die?
What on earth are you
talking about?
That'’s right.
What, people can'’t
stand around
and have a good time without
you being the center
of attention or something, what?
Okay, wow, I guess
this party isn'’t having
that much fun.
Good luck trying
to find your treasure.
I told you not
to tell anybody.
I didn'’t say anything
to him, Jessica.
JESSICA: Then who did?
What?
What'’s on
your mind, kid?
I was wondering about
treasure and how
it affects people.
Do you remember that old
movie with Humphrey Bogart?
Yeah, yeah. The Treasure
of the Sierra Madre.
Yeah.
The desire for gold,
drove most men crazy.
Yeah, well, you know,
it'’s funny what
the mere mention of
"priceless artifacts"
will do to some people.
I gotta go. I gotta go
wrap up some
of the sound equipment.
Let me know if you see
anything on that monitor.
What?
That monitor you got.
That'’s funny.
You'’re funny. Funny.
JERRY: Where is Mr. Skeleton?
I swear to you, Jerry,
it was right here.
LILY: That'’s it. The J.L.
J... J what?
J.L. This carriage belonged
to Jonathan Leland.
What is going on here?
Who is Jonathan Leland?
I'’m Jonathan Leland.
The fourth, that is.
Where did you come from?
My building next door.
Altman owns
the building next door.
Not anymore.
Wait a minute.
Who is Jonathan Leland
the first?
The baron who stole
the treasure in 1906.
Didn'’t I tell you this?
ALL: No!Sorry.
Anyway, Leland stole
the treasure originally...
That'’s not true.
He bought the treasure
from the thieves
who stole it
from the museum
in Beijing.
How do you know all this?
Your scholarly
research, Ms. Lily.
Who do you think anonymously
funded it in the first place.
Or didn'’t you really want
to know where that money
was coming from?
For you.
What'’s this?
A court order enjoining you
to cease and desist from any
treasure hunting until I...
Until you can steal it.
Until I can recover
the bones of
my great grandfather,
and give them
a decent burial.
Where do you think
those bones are anyway?
You can bet
they didn'’t walk
out of here.
JESSICA: Mr. Leland,
this is my property
and I am going to get
my own court order.
Fine, we can have our...
respective lawyers
battle this out
for the next 20 years,
or we can come to some
sort of mutual agreement.
Wait a minute.
No, we have
an arrangement with her.
He can'’t do that.
Yes, he can.
Twenty years
legal fees,
that'’s a real
treasure hunt.
[THUD]
Raleigh.
Hey, Raleigh.
Jessica?
Mr. Dominus.
This place is sealed
off, you know, nobody'’s
supposed to be down here.
Do you think I'’d simply
let the remains of
my great grandfather rot,
down here, did you?You'’re a little late,
aren'’t you?
[CHUCKLES]
Look, Mr. Dominus,
all I want
to do is retrieve
the bones
for decent burial.
Be in and out fast,
and look,
here'’s a little
something for you.
What do you think
you'’re doing? [GRUNTS]
According to Lily'’s
research, if we find
the sword of Kwai Chan,
the rest
of the treasure
is ours.
What?
What'’s the matter?
MAN: No way.
Don'’t stand there,
go get him.
Come on, go, go.
[GUNSHOTS]
[SCREAMS]
[GRUNTS]
Who sucker punched me?
Come on back here
and I'’ll kick your...
Good lord.
RALEIGH: Frank!
Frank, where did
you go, man?
Let'’s get out
of here, man.
Come on, let'’s go, there's
a huge thing down there.
Whoa, Frank,
calm down.
Get a grip. Okay, now
what kind of thing?
I don'’t know,
man, it'’s tall,
it'’s got glowing eyes,
I tell ya,
a skeleton
is one thing,
but this ain'’t
for real, man.
Yeah, of course, man,
I am right behind you.
Let'’s go.Scaredy-cat.
All right, come on
out, Johnny.
Come on out, I shouldn'’t
have went up to the loft,
you read my thoughts,
decided to get even
with us.
Maybe we'’re getting a little
greedy, but I tell you what,
cut you in on a little piece
of it if you come on out.
Come on, Johnny.
You scared the hell out
of your dad, now come on.
Oh, Johnny.
Please, please, tell
me that is you.
JOHNNY: Raleigh. Raleigh!
Right.
Oh, Johnny, there'’s
something down...
Here. Tell me I didn'’t
see what I just saw.
[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING]
Didn'’t I mention that there
was a ghost associated
with this curse?
A legendary
5th century warrior,
Kwai Chan,
allegedly guards
the treasure.
Now, no enlightened
modern person
would believe such
an absurdity.
Besides, I didn'’t wanna
scare anybody.
You didn'’t have to.
Well, it was no ghost
that gave me this bump
on my head, I know that.
It'’s that Leland punk.
That still didn'’t explain
the big guy in the armor.
JESSICA: Well,
I'’ve got a theory.
Maybe Leland
hired a goon,
to dress up like
this ghost warrior,
scare everybody off, so that
he could find the treasure.
Except it backfired
on him when Frank
busted him, so then,
Leland pretended
to run
from the ghost warrior,
to make it look good.
I saw that one on Scooby Doo.
Or there really
is a ghost warrior,
who will kill anyone
who tries to steal
the treasure.
Yeah, right.
What do you
think, Johnny?
[SCREAMS]
I think there'’s only
one way to find out the truth.
And why do I get
the feeling that you'’re
not gonna share it with me?
It'’s time for my next set.
Catch you guys later.
Excuse me. Johnny.
RALEIGH:
I know what
you'’re thinking.
It'’s time
for Night Man.
But do you think that
it'’s wise for our man
to show up,
with all these
cameras around?
He might not
have a choice.
JERRY: I'’m not so sure
it'’s a wise idea
to be going back
down there again.
But, Jerry, think
of the elements.
A treasure, a curse.
A ghost.
Your point?
ALEXANDRA: Every TV
in the country will
be tuned in.
You could go down
there alone,
with just Javier.
You know,
guerrilla journalism,
it'’s all the rage.
What about
the restraining order?
When has anything ever
restrained Jerry Springer.
We'’re gonna get in
and get out, Javier.
Find the treasure while
Alexandra stalls from upstairs.
Who knows
maybe we will...
maybe we'’ll run
into a ghost or two, huh.
What!
I am only kidding.
[SPEAKING SPANISH]
It'’s only a joke.
Geez.
We need something
to draw him out.
Help! Help! The master...
he'’s got Jerry.
Go. Go.
Did you hear?
We'’ve got to save Jerry.
He'’s a celebrity.
Hold on now.
We are going
to take care of this.
I'’m gonna
handle this,
all right?
[JERRY GROANING]Easy, you'’re going
to be all right.
It was...
it was as big as...
Shaq on steroids.
Right.Yeah, man.
As much as you
get bumped around
it'’s a good thing you got
so much hair up there.Yeah.
That'’s not
a piece, is it?
No!
God, I haven'’t been
banged around this much
since we did
that feuding
trailer park show.
Oh, yeah, I saw that.Oh.
Yeah.
Wait.
I'’m on your side.
Let me help you.
Together, we can
get your treasure back.
LILY: Oh, my God.
[PANTING]
I found the sword.
The temple.
[FOOTSTEPS]
JERRY: I don'’t know
what that was.
Some kind of elaborate hoax.
Oh, no, this
isn'’t a hoax.
How do you know? How do
I know this isn'’t some
kind of a set up.
That isn'’t a set up.
Jonathan Leland, the fourth.
I have great news.
I found the sword.
It points towards
the temple ruins
just like my
great uncle said.
At last,
the treasure is ours.
There is one little
problem though.
Kwai Chan.
Don'’t tell me about
the ghost warrior.
There'’s no time
for superstitions.
We'’ve already begun
dealing with the real
enemies of our people.
Looks like Leland the fourth
couldn'’t stay away
from the treasure hunt.
Ghost nailed him.
Although I pity the guy
that tries to tell that theory
to Lieutenant Dann.
I don'’t know.
I really didn'’t get
that sort of vibe
from that ghost...
whatever it is.
No, this is different,
Alexandra. The risk
is just too great.
But, Jerry, this could
be the first 90 share
in television history.
We'’re talking,
not just a show,
we'’re talking mini series.JERRY: I know,
it'’s a miniseries.
We did it all the time.ALEXANDRA: Listen...
What?Don'’t forget...
that you survived
the death battle
with the ghost warrior.
I did, didn'’t I?
Yeah, so what do
you say, boss?
Sorry to break up
this little seance
but I'’m yellow-taping
that hole up there
which means I need
everybody out of here
now, okay?
FRANK: Hey, Charlie,
come here, will you?
Well, now what? What?Well, it'’s simple.
He said no one
through that hole.
But he didn'’t say
anything about
going through
the hole next door.
That'’s why I pay
you the big bucks.
[CHUCKLES]
See, the sword points
to the direction of the temple.
This way.
This way.
Isn'’t this amazing?
LING: Well done.
LILY: Come this way.
[LILY GASPING]
Congratulations,
comrade Liu.
You'’re a great patriot.
I'’m just happy that
we can return this treasure
back to the people of China.
But, of course.
Hurry and pack this up.
We must get
to the ship before dawn.
She was right.
There really is a treasure,
and the little scholar
is stealing it.
I never did trust her.
Do you know
what this means
if we can capture
this on tape?
TV immortality.
You follow them, I'’ll go
get Javier, and bring
the truck.
Okay, I'’ll stay with them
and give you directions
on the cell phone.
[BELT CHIRPING]
We'’re making a right now,
making a right on Madison.
A right on Madison.
Right! Right, right.
I recognize this.
Right, make a right.
[TIRES SCREECHING]
Okay, you make a left
on Bordon.
Left on... on Mordon?
No, not Mo... Bordon,
Bordon, like the milk,
whatever.
They'’re getting
near the docks now.
I can see they'’re getting
near... turning left,
on Calloway,
left on Calloway.
Towards the docks,
can you hear me?
Okay. I am gonna be hiding
down there. Here'’s the phone.
Tell Alexandra
and Javier to hurry up.
I wanna get this whole
thing on tape, got it?
Hurry.
Finally, the curse of the great
Kwai Chan can be at peace.
It'’s a shame though,
necessary I suppose that,
he had to kill Leland.
The ancestor of a thief
is still a thief.
[BELT CHIRPING]
[LASER BEAMING]
[ALL GROANING]
Unbelievable.
You. Who are you?
A friend, interested
in saving your treasure.
But we are returning
the treasure
to its rightful place.
It'’s true, yes.
This man is not taking
the treasure to Beijing.
He'’s selling it in Hong Kong.
He'’s the one
that killed Leland.
A kingdom for a camera.
Did you...
No one'’s gonna
believe this.
I'’d say it's time you
start telling the truth.
It'’s true.
And so what?
I am one of the new breed
of Chinese capitalists.
Haven'’t you heard?
There'’s no more future
in patriotism.
Nor treachery either.
Get them.
[GRUNTS]
[GUNSHOTS]
[GRUNTS]
Now he'’s taking bullets.
[LASER BEAMING]
[CRIES IN PAIN]
[SCREAMS]
[GUNSHOTS]
Unbelievable.
Get out of here.Let'’s move.
[YELLING]
I haven'’t seen anything
like this in my life.
We could have
this on camera.
If they don'’t get
here they'’re history.
I see the docks, I see
it right there, right there.
Pull up over there
on your left.JAVIER: Okay.
[GASPS] You'’ll never
get away with this.
The degree is not gonna
help you now, Lily.
You'’re my way
out of here.
Let'’s go for a ride.
No. No.
Please.
Now I'’ve got
a guy who flies.
Don'’t drop me.
Yes.
Shall we?
[SCREAMS]
Where'’s the damn camera?
ALEXANDRA: I don'’t see
them... Lets go this way.
Ghost ship.
Ah, Jesus.
The treasure
is safe at last.
Thank you, friend.
[SIRENS BLARING]
[INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER]
Sorry, we must'’ve made
a wrong turn.
Ah, it'’s okay.
It'’s all right.
Did we miss anything?
Did you miss anything?
No.
No, I told you,
it was...
that was no story.
No, no story.
You did
a good job, Raleigh.
Yeah.
Now the treasure will
finally find it'’s way
back home.
The treasure
and it'’s guardian.
Excuse me.
Hey, Jerry.
If you'’re ever
out this way again,
you know you might need
a little security.
Give me a call.
You can'’t be too
careful, you know.
What'’s the matter
with Jerry?
I don'’t know.
I'’ve never seen
him like this,
so quiet.
