BRIDGET: YOUR FAMILY HAS MADE
QUITE A SPLASH IN SAN FRANCISCO,
WITH THEIR PHILANTHROPIC WORK,
A CANCER CENTER DEDICATED
TO YOUR LATE BROTHER RAYMOND,
THEIR BUSINESS VENTURES.
YOUR FATHER AND SISTER HAVE BEEN
FRONT AND CENTER.
BUT YOU'VE BEEN UNUSUALLY ABSENT
DURING THIS PERIOD.
I WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT.
QUITE A SERIOUS ONE.
YOU SEE, I'VE ALWAYS LOVED FAST CARS,
AND SOMETIMES... [SCOFFS]
SOMETIMES THE LOVE ISN'T MUTUAL.
AND HOW ARE YOU FEELING NOW?
I'M BETTER THAN EVER.
I APPRECIATE THE LOVE AND SUPPORT OF MY FATHER,
AND FRANKLY, I'M LUCKY TO BE
LEARNING THE BUSINESS FROM A MASTER LIKE HIM.
MY FATHER, MY SISTER.
THEY'RE ALWAYS LOOKING TO THE NEXT FRONTIER.
I'VE BEEN GIVEN A SECOND CHANCE, I FEEL.
AND I'D BE A FOOL TO THROW IT AWAY.
WELL, IT'S A VERY GENEROUS OFFER,
AND I PROMISE TO GET BACK TO YOU ASAP.
[DOOR CLOSES]PHONE'S BEEN RINGING LIKE CRAZY.
OHH. ONE OF MY FORMER COWORKERS AT LOUNGR
POSTED A VIDEO OF ME QUITTING.
YOUR JERRY MAGUIRE MOMENT?
HARDLY. WENT OVER
LIKE A THUD IN THE ROOM.
BUT IT WENT VIRAL.
APPARENTLY, MY CAN-DO ATTITUDE
GOT THE ATTENTION OF EVERY HEADHUNTER
IN SILICON VALLEY.
ANY OF THESE JOBS LIGHT YOUR WICK?
MM. THEY'RE ALL...SOLID.
I MEAN, MAINLY THE SAME POSITIONS AND TITLES, BUT
AT LEAST LATERAL MOVEMENT
IS BETTER THAN NO MOVEMENT, RIGHT?
YEAH, HON. I'M PROUD OF YOU.
[CELL PHONE RINGING]
BETTER GET THAT.
408 AREA CODE. ANOTHER ONE.
HELLO? HI. YES,
THIS IS ALTHEA SHEN-SOONG.
OH! YOU SAW THE VIDEO.
[DOOR OPENS]
THANK YOU, PROFESSOR. I REALLY APPRECIATE THE HELP.
HENRY: ALL RIGHT. TAKE CARE. NICKY: WHAT'D SHE SAY?
SHE RECOGNIZED YOUR SKETCH.
SHE SAYS IT'S DEFINITELY
FROM THE ZHOU DYNASTY.
IT'S CALLED A YUELING BELL.
WHEN IMMIGRANTS FROM YUELING
SETTLED IN THE BAY AREA,
THE VILLAGE SENT THE BELL TO CHINATOWN,
HOPING THAT IT WOULD BRING THE COMMUNITY GOOD FORTUNE.
SO, THAT'S HOW IT ENDED UP HERE.
SOMEHOW, IT ENDED UP BROKEN
AND THEN BURIED BENEATH THE CITY.
UNTIL RUSSELL TAN DUG UP THOSE PIECES.
REALLY, NOW, THE QUESTION IS WHY,
AND WHAT DOES MIA HAVE TO DO WITH IT?
[CELL PHONE BUZZES]
WHAT IS IT?
KERWIN.
LOOKS LIKE HE'S IN TOWN.
THAT CAN'T BE GOOD.
IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE.
LAST TIME WE SAW KERWIN, HE WAS
TEAMED UP WITH ZHILAN,
GOING AFTER THE WEAPONS.
HE BETRAYED HIS FATHER.
I DON'T KNOW-- DOES RUSSELL TAN
SEEM LIKE THE FORGIVING TYPE?
THIS ARTICLE FEELS CALCULATED.
WELL, TAN HAS BEEN WORKING OVERTIME
TO LOOK LIKE AN UPRIGHT CITIZEN.
HE'S BEEN DONATING TO
CHARITIES AROUND TOWN,
SUPPORTING LOCAL BUSINESSES.
BUT A STORY LIKE THIS REEKS OF P.R.
WHAT IF KERWIN ISN'T REALLY
BACK IN THE FAMILY FOLD?
WHAT IF RUSSELL'S JUST USING HIM
TO CLEAN UP THEIR IMAGE?
IT'S POSSIBLE.
OR MAYBE KERWIN BURIED THE HATCHET WITH HIS DAD
AND THEY REALLY ARE JUST WORKING TOGETHER AGAIN.
EITHER WAY, KERWIN'S IN
THE LION'S DEN RIGHT NOW.
HE COULD HAVE INFORMATION WE NEED.
IT'S NOT LIKE WE CAN CALL HIM UP AND SAY,
"HEY, KERWIN, CAN YOU SPILL YOUR DAD'S SECRETS?"
UNLESS...
NICKY, YOU CANNOT REASON WITH THIS GUY.
HE KILLED SIMON LAU'S BODYGUARD.
HE WOULD'VE KILLED US, TOO.
I KNOW.
OK.
WE DON'T HAVE ANY OTHER LEADS, RIGHT?
MIA'S GONE. RUSSELL TAN'S
PROBABLY LOOKING FOR HER RIGHT NOW.
WE KNOW HE NEEDS HER FOR HIS PLAN.
HENRY: WELL. NICKY: I KNOW IT'S JUST A HUNCH.
BUT I THINK WE HAVE TO TRY.

SO...TO WHAT DO I OWE THIS PLEASURE?
WE READ YOUR PROFILE.
SAW YOU WERE BACK IN TOWN.
CHASING THAT BRASS RING.
KIND OF LONG ODDS, DON'T YOU THINK?
THAT PROFILE SAID RAYMOND WAS
FIRST IN LINE FOR THE THRONE.
AFTER HE DIED, JULIETTE SEEMS
LIKE A LOCK-IN AS YOUR FATHER'S SUCCESSOR.
BUT HEY, YOU KNOW YOUR FAMILY BETTER THAN WE DO.
WHAT ARE YOU GETTING AT?
YOUR FATHER'S BEEN REAL BUSY,
BUYING UP REAL ESTATE IN THE CITY.
HE'S PLANNING SOMETHING BIG.
BUT I'M SURE YOU ALREADY KNEW ALL THAT.
AND ABOUT THE BELL HE DUG UP.
BEEN FOCUSED ON THE RECOVERY.
BY THE WAY, HOW DID YOU GET IN HERE?
YOU'RE CLEARLY NOT MEMBERS.
OH, WE LIED AT THE FRONT DESK.
LIKE YOU LIED TO THAT REPORTER.
"IT'S AN HONOR LEARNING FROM
A MASTER LIKE MY FATHER."
KERWIN, YOU WALKED AWAY FROM A LIFE
MOST PEOPLE ONLY DREAM ABOUT.
PARTNERED WITH ZHILAN, WORKED AGAINST YOUR FATHER,
AND NOW YOU'RE BACK?
WHAT HAPPENED, KERWIN?
THINGS DIDN'T WORK OUT.
ZHILAN'S OUT OF THE PICTURE.
PERMANENTLY.
NICKY: WHAT ARE YOU SAYING? KERWIN: I'M SAYING
MY FAMILY ORDERED HER KILLED IN PRISON.
I SAW IT MYSELF.
PHOTOS OF HER CHARRED BODY.
A GIFT FROM DAD.
SO, THAT'S WHAT THIS IS ABOUT.
YOU DON'T WANT TO TAKE THE REINS FROM YOUR FATHER.
YOU WANT TO TAKE HIM DOWN.
YOU WANT...REVENGE.
AND WHAT DO YOU WANT?
I JUST WANT TO TALK.

HOW'S A SHAOLIN MONK GOING TO HELP ME?
I THOUGHT YOU LOT DIDN'T DO REVENGE.
WE HAVE OUR REASONS.
YOUR DAD'S GONNA DO SOMETHING
BIG AND TERRIBLE IN THE CITY
AND WE WANT TO STOP HIM.
WE DON'T KNOW HOW, BUT
IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THAT
ANCIENT BELL HE JUST DUG UP.
HMM. SO, WHAT? DO YOU PROPOSE
WE WORK TOGETHER? AND DO WHAT?
STEAL IT. THE BELL.
YOU WANT REVENGE,
YOU REALLY WANT TO HURT YOUR FATHER,
TAKE AWAY THE THING HE CARES ABOUT THE MOST.
HENRY: ZHILAN COULDN'T STOP HIM.
WE DON'T KNOW HOW TO STOP HIM.
THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN IS YOU.
[LAUGHS] YOU WERE A LOUSY ROOMMATE.
JIN: HMM? FRANK: LOUSY!
[BOTH LAUGH]
I WOULD'VE TOSSED YOU OUT
IF YOU HADN'T BEEN SO PASSIONATE ABOUT THIS PLACE.
HEY, WHAT ABOUT MY ART?
I WAS TALENTED, TOO, YOU KNOW. [LAUGHS]
YOU WERE RAW BUT YOU WERE TALENTED.

HENRY.
HENRY: THE YUELING BELL. NICKY: LOOK CLOSER.
THE PENDANT.
THE GUARDIAN?
LI JIAMING.
A GUARDIAN THAT MOVED TO SAN FRANCISCO
AT THE TURN OF THE CENTURY.
THE DETAILS ARE SKETCHY
BUT HE DISAPPEARED.
PEOPLE CLOSE TO HIM BELIEVED HE'D BEEN KILLED.
HOW DO YOU KNOW ALL THIS?
IT'S ALL IN THERE.
THEY TALKED OF THE RITUAL OF THE BELL.
MY FATHER SPEAKS OF A SHUANG XUE HU DIE.
A BUTTERFLY OF TWO BLOODLINES.
THAT MEAN ANYTHING TO YOU?
TWO BLOODLINES, LIKE WARRIORS AND GUARDIANS?
ACCORDING TO MY FATHER,
THE BUTTERFLY IS CRUCIAL
TO HIS PLAN WITH THE BELL.
SHE IS THE SACRIFICE THAT MAKES IT ALL WORK.
THE BELL IS AT MY HOUSE RIGHT NOW.
IT'S BEING RESTORED. THE WORKERS FINISH TONIGHT.
AT THE BREAK OF DAWN, IT'S BEING MOVED
TO ONE OF MY FATHER'S HIGH-SECURITY FACILITIES.
AFTER THAT, IT'LL BE COMPLETELY UNREACHABLE.
TONIGHT IS YOUR ONLY SHOT.
YOU WANT US TO BREAK INTO YOUR HOUSE?
WE'LL NEED YOUR HELP.
I KNOW THE COMPOUND'S SECURITY BACKWARDS AND FORWARDS.
CAMERA POSITIONS, GUARDS, ALARMS?
YES, ALL OF IT. I'LL HAVE EYES ON YOU THE ENTIRE TIME.
WHAT ABOUT YOUR FAMILY?
I'LL TAKE CARE OF THEM. THE HOUSE'LL BE EMPTY.
YEAH, EXCEPT FOR THE ARMY OF PRIVATE SECURITY.
I TOLD YOU. I'LL KEEP YOU SAFE.
WHAT'S OUR ACCESS POINT?
WEST GATE.
8 P.M. SHARP.
SO, HOW DO WE GET IT OUT?
YEAH. THE BELL WEIGHS A TON
AND IT'S MADE OF BRONZE, SO,
STEALING'S NOT GONNA WORK FOR US.
GOTTA DESTROY IT SOMEHOW.
ALL I CARE ABOUT IS
STICKING IT TO MY FATHER.
HE CARES ABOUT THIS BELL MORE THAN ANYTHING OR ANYONE,
AND I WANT TO TAKE IT FROM HIM.
SO, STEAL IT. DESTROY IT.
I'LL LEAVE THOSE DETAILS TO YOU.
I CAN'T BE EXPECTED TO DO EVERYTHING.
JIN: WE GOTTA DO SOMETHING.
THE COLLECTIVE IS PART OF OUR HISTORY.
IT MEANS SO MUCH FOR SO MANY.
THE STUDIO NEXT DOOR-- THEY WANT THE WHOLE SPACE.
THEY OFFERED TO BUY ME OUT.
THE CITY'S CHANGED, JIN.
CHINATOWN'S CHANGED.
I APPRECIATE THAT THE COLLECTIVE
MEANS SO MUCH TO YOU.
IT'S BEEN MY WHOLE LIFE.
BUT I'M TIRED.
I HAVE BEEN CARRYING THIS PLACE ON MY BACK
FOR TOO LONG AND...
I JUST CAN'T DO IT ALONE ANYMORE.
[SIGH] ANY IDEA WHY NICKY CALLED US HERE?
I DON'T KNOW BUT AT LEAST WE KNOW SHE'S NOT DEAD.
SHE'S BEEN DODGING YOU, TOO, HUH?
OH, YEAH.[PHONE CHIMING]

YOU SOUND THRILLED.
WAIT, WHAT ABOUT YOU?
SHOULDN'T YOU HAVE FOUND OUT ABOUT--
YEAH. GOT MY MATCH TODAY. UCSF.
CONGRATULATIONS? WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?
LOOK, IT'S WHAT I WANTED. THERE ARE JUST--
THERE ARE JUST THINGS I'VE BEEN PUTTING OFF
BECAUSE I HAD TO BE HERE.
AND NOW IT'S HITTING ME THAT THEY'RE
REALLY NOT GONNA HAPPEN.
I ALWAYS THOUGHT AT SOME POINT,
I'D TAKE A YEAR OFF.
TRAVEL, ADVENTURE.
BUT I'VE NEVER EVEN LEFT THE COUNTRY.
AND NOW I'M GONNA BE LIVING AND WORKING HERE
FOR THE NEXT 5 TO 7 YEARS?
I'M GONNA BE 30 BY THEN.
SO, WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO?
HEY.
ARE WE INTERRUPTING SOMETHING?
NOTHING AT ALL.
GREAT. I NEED YOUR GUYS' HELP WITH SOMETHING.
ALTHEA: NICE TO SEE YOU, NICKY. RYAN: YEAH,
IT'S, UH, BEEN A MINUTE.
I'M SORRY, GUYS.
I KNOW I'VE BEEN KINDA DISTANT LATELY.
I THOUGHT I'D HAVE TO GO AT THIS ALONE
TO KEEP YOU GUYS SAFE AND AFTER LOSING MIA,
I DON'T KNOW, I JUST STARTED TO SPIRAL.
RELAX. WE'RE MESSING WITH YOU.
COME ON. WHAT'S UP?
NICKY: WE ARE GOING TO BREAK INTO
RUSSELL TAN'S MANSION AND DESTROY
THIS ANCIENT, TWO-TON BRONZE BELL.
RYAN: NATURALLY. HENRY: AND WE COULD USE SOME IDEAS.
HOW DO WE DESTROY SOMETHING THIS BIG,
THIS SOLID, QUICKLY?
WHAT ABOUT DYNAMITE?
RYAN: TOO SOON? NICKY: HA HA.
BREAK-IN SITUATION, REMEMBER?
NEEDS TO BE QUIET.
PROPANE TORCH? IS THAT SOMETHING?
NO. IT TAKES TOO LONG.
CHEMICAL DECOMPOSITION.
YEAH. IT'S BEEN A WHILE SINCE UNDERGRAD CHEM,
BUT WITH BRONZE.
YEAH. RIGHT.
A COCKTAIL OF NITRIC ACID AND VINYL CHLORIDE
CAN BREAK DOWN BRONZE, AND BREAK IT DOWN FAST.
IT'S HIGHLY CORROSIVE.
HAVE TO GET THE RATIOS RIGHT AND APPLY
THE PROPER VOLUMES, BUT--
DO YOU HAVE ANY OF THIS "COCKTAIL"
LYING AROUND THE CLINIC?
IT'S INDUSTRIAL, NOT MEDICAL.
PLUS, GETTING THE AMOUNT THAT YOU NEED
AS A CIVILIAN MIGHT BE TRICKY.
I CAN HELP WITH THAT.
JULIETTE: I'M STILL TRYING TO UNDERSTAND.
YOU SPENT ALL THESE YEARS LOOKING FOR THE WEAPONS.
THEN THEY WERE DESTROYED.
I WANTED TO WIELD THE ENERGY OF BIANGE
TO RING THE BELL AND UNLEASH ITS SECRET POWER.
BUT I WAS A FOOL.
THAT POWER WOULD'VE DESTROYED ME.
LIKE IT DESTROYED THE GUARDIAN JIAMING.
[PLACES GLASS ON TABLE]
I NEEDED A STRONGER INSTRUMENT,
A SACRIFICE.
NOT ME, NOT A GUARDIAN OR A WARRIOR.
I NEEDED BOTH.
MIA. BUT FATHER, WHAT IS IT ALL FOR?
[DOOR OPENS]
JULIETTE: KERWIN. [DOOR CLOSES]
KERWIN: AH.
I THOUGHT YOU'D BE GETTING READY.
FOR THE FOUNDATION DINNER.
WE PULLED OUT. FATHER NEEDS HIS REST
BEFORE HIS FLIGHT.
WE'LL BE DINING AT HOME TONIGHT.
SOMETHING THE MATTER?
NOT AT ALL.
I THINK DINNER AT HOME WOULD BE...LOVELY.
LET ME SEE YOUR SCHOOL I.D.
THAT'S NOT GONNA GET US VERY FAR.
I'M JUST A T.A.
NOT ANYMORE.

WHAT ABOUT THE COCKTAIL?
OH. I FOUND A CHEMICAL
SUPPLIER NEARBY.
I'M RUNNING A REQUEST THROUGH A VPN

WITH HENRY'S NEW CREDENTIALS,
CHECKOUT SHOULD BE A CINCH.
SENDING THE ADDRESS NOW.
GREAT. I'LL CALL AS SOON AS I GET 'EM.
RYAN: OK. WE GOOD?
YES.
I THINK.
THE NITRIC ACID GOES IN FIRST?
NO, THE VINYL CHLORIDE!
NICKY, YOU HAVE TO PAY ATTENTION.
WE'RE DEALING WITH HIGHLY VOLATILE CHEMICALS.
CAN'T YOU JUST DO THE MIXTURE FOR US?
FINE. BUT APPLYING THE COCKTAIL,
IT'S MORE THAN JUST DUNKING THE BELL IN A BUCKET.
YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO WIELD
THE DISPERSAL DEVICE CORRECTLY, TOO.
GUYS? WHY DOES DOING THIS STUFF
BRING ME MORE SATISFACTION THAN
ANY OTHER DAY JOB I'VE EVER HAD?
BECAUSE IT'S CREATIVE?
THERE ARE REAL STAKES OTHER THAN MONEY?
UH, WE'RE ACTUALLY HELPING PEOPLE?
ALTHEA: NO, THAT'S NOT IT. RYAN: OK.
ALTHEA: I MEAN, THAT PART'S
GREAT, TOO, DON'T GET ME WRONG, BUT
IT'S NOT WHY.
IT'S BECAUSE I'M NOT TAKING ORDERS FROM ANYONE.
HA! YOU BOSS US AROUND
BUT YOU'RE NOT OUR BOSS, AND
I CAN ALWAYS TELL YOU TO STUFF IT.
WHICH YOU DO.
ALTHEA: HA! THAT'S IT!
I DON'T WANT A BOSS!
I WANT TO BE A BOSS!
I THINK YOU'D MAKE A GREAT BOSS, ALTHEA.
ALTHEA: THANK YOU. RYAN: OK, SO, BACK TO THE BELL.
YOU'RE ALSO GONNA NEED PROTECTIVE GEAR.
ROOKIES MESSING AROUND WITH THIS STUFF
IN A HIGH-STRESS SITUATION? NICKY: RYAN.
NO, YOU OR HENRY COULD GET SERIOUSLY HURT.
NICKY: I THINK YOU SHOULD COME. RYAN: WHAT?
LOOK, I DON'T HAVE TIME
TO WRAP MY MIND AROUND ALL THIS.
THIS IS OUR ONE CHANCE TO PROTECT MIA
AND I CAN'T MAKE ANY MISTAKES.
I NEED YOU THERE.

OR YOU CAN GIVE ME
MAYBE 5 MORE MINUTES IN HIS INNER SANCTUM.

WHY? TELL ME WHY.

YEAH, BUT YOU'RE LEAVING THE RESTAURANT.

JIN, WE BUILT HARMONY DUMPLINGS TOGETHER.

I WOULDN'T DO THIS.
I'M DOING THIS BECAUSE OF YOU.
YOU INSPIRED ME.

YOU WERE ALWAYS SUPPOSED TO DO THIS.

I KNOW YOU CAN HANDLE THIS PLACE YOURSELF.
JIN, THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT.
I'LL MISS YOU. I'LL MISS YOU.

[CELL PHONE CHIMING] NICKY: WHO'S THAT?

[THUNDER]
I TOLD YOU. YOUR BROTHER IS PAST SAVING.
YOU WERE RIGHT.
KERWIN'S ALWAYS BEEN MY...BLIND SPOT.
I MADE MISTAKES, BUT HE'S GONE NOW,
AND...WE HAVE TO MOVE ON.
HOW? THE BELL CAN'T BE FIXED.
NO, BUT IT CAN BE REPLACED.
YOU'VE READ THE HISTORY.
THE BELL IS ONE OF A KIND.
YES. I'VE READ YOUR RESEARCH
AND I KNOW IT'S NOT ABOUT THE BELL.
IT'S ABOUT WHAT THE BELL CAN DO--
THE TONE IT CAN PRODUCE.
WE HAVE THE SPECS--
DIMENSIONS, WEIGHT,
THE RESULTS OF THE COMPOSITIONAL
ANALYSIS I ORDERED.
GIVE ME TIME, GIVE ME RESOURCES,
AND I CAN CREATE AN INSTRUMENT
THAT WILL MAKE THE SAME EXACT TONES,
THAT WILL MAKE THE MUSIC YOU NEED FOR YOUR PLAN.
FATHER, JUST GIVE ME A CHANCE.
