"Now, listen." "Hello, Vince." "Couple of things you gotta work on, kid." "That's your timing, and how to knock on a door." "You're gonna have to leave her alone, Vince." "Whoever I want and whenever I want it, Danny." "Not this one." "She must be something very special to you to talk like this to me." "Not special, particularly." "Just mine." " You've been holding out on me, Danny." " Take anything else I've got." "Her." "Come on, you don't want her." "You've got a couple hundred women..." "I don't want anybody telling me what to do." "Now, get out." "Get out of the way." " Is he dead?" " Dead?" "No, he's all right." "You're not." "You're on your own, darling." "I think I just wore out my welcome." "Dad?" "We've been here before, son." " Take me with you." " I can't this time." "Mr. Corbino?" "Yeah, it was coming." "He'll kill you." "He'll never catch me." "Now, you stay here and look after Omar." "And I'll get word to you soon as I can." "You'll be all right." "You be careful." "Where is he?" "Get him!" "I want Danny Caine's head on a pole!" "Your tread must be light and sure  as though your path were upon rice paper." "It is said a Shaolin priest can walk through walls." "Looked for, he cannot be seen." "Listened for, he cannot be heard." "Touched, he cannot be felt." "This rice paper is the test." "Fragile as the wings of the dragonfly, clinging as the cocoon of the silkworm." "When you can walk its length and leave no trace  you will have learned." " Good evening, Mr. McCord, Miss Lilly." " Good evening, Al." " Looks like a good card tonight." " Yes, sir." " You betting on the Irishman?" " Certainly not." "I'm on Omar." " Danny Caine's Omar." "Right, Lilly?" " Oh, yes." "He's magnificent." "Yes, he's magnificent." "Hey, you!" "No Chinese allowed." "I am looking for..." "If you're looking for work, go to the kitchen entrance." "You better hurry before Mr. Corbino sets the dogs on you as a preliminary for the main event." "That's right." "Right on around of the kitchen." "Excuse me." "What do you want?" "No scraps." "No handouts this place." " Free soup kitchen?" "San Francisco." " I do not want food." " I am in search..." " You want a job." "Good!" "I give you job." "You start now." "Wash pots." "Well, do you want work, or not?" "Before you begin, you bring another sack of potatoes." "Storeroom right here." "Quick." "Hurry up!" "This storeroom is not mine to protect." "There is no need to raise a weapon against me." " Hey, where is he?" " Who?" " The boy!" "Zeke." " The boy is not here." "Look, he's always hanging around in here." "I said, where is he?" " I don't know." " Look, I said, where is he?" "Why must you hurt this man?" "Well, now." "Maybe you'd like to tell me where he is." "Where is he?" "Lt'd be worth a dollar to you to tell me where he's at." "That ain't enough?" "I thought two bits was enough for a half-breed pot washer." "Now, say it." "Where is he?" " I'm gonna kill you." " You're not gonna kill anybody." "You had it coming." "Now, get in the storeroom and search, and stop fooling with the kitchen help." "Come on." "Get out here!" "Let go of me!" "Take your hands off of me!" "That's good!" "That's good!" "You finally found somebody you can beat, huh?" "You did it." "You sold me out." "What did they give you for me?" "A dollar?" "Free meal?" " My father will get you for this." " Don't be too sure of that, Zeke." "He's left you high and dry." "Smart boy like you probably got that figured out." " What has this boy done?" " What's it to you?" "I don't need you." "Or anybody else." " Then, why do you hide?" " Yeah, that's right, Zeke." "Now, why are you hiding there?" "Let him go." "Go get out of here, all three of you." "You think that trash in there is gonna be a friend to you?" "You're a smart boy, Zeke." "Strong." "You're good-looking too." "One thing you've gotta learn is how to pick your friends." "How to put your money there." "Bet you think I came down to beat you up." "You're all right, kid." "One thing you did wrong is pick the wrong father." "You can't be responsible for that, can you?" "Tell you what I'm gonna do." "You're gonna sit at my table tonight for the fights." "Now that Danny's gone, somebody's gotta take his place, don't he?" "Danny Caine?" "Oh, yeah." "Chinaman, here." "There's a silver dollar for you." "Thanks for the tip." "Next time I know who to call on." "Get up there." " This boy is the son of Danny Caine?" " Yes." "Where is Danny Caine?" "That is what they would like to know." "Gentlemen!" "Two, three, four, five six, seven eight, nine, 10, 11 12, 13, 14..." "Go!" "Four, five, six, seven, eight nine, 10, 11, 12, 13 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 19, 20, 21, 22, 23 24, 25, 26, 27 28, 29, 30!" "And the winner is Danny Caine's Omar!" "And now, ladies and gentlemen, your host for this evening Vincent Corbino!" "Thank you!" "Ladies and gentlemen, that's all the fighting for tonight." "But tomorrow night, Barbary House will present once again more hand-to-hand combat featuring Omar and as a special feature, the McAfee Brothers in a three-man free-for-all!" "All right, break up and dry yourself." "Oh, Zeke!" "Come on." "Sit down." "Enjoy your champagne." "Come on." "He'll be fine." "Sit down." "Enjoy the party." "Where did you come from?" "You're hurt." "Where is your bed?" "In there." "Never felt stronger." "I don't need no help." "Ten times stronger after a fight than I is before." "Is there no one to care for you after your fight?" "Mr. Danny Caine, my owner, care for me personally." "Won't let nobody else lay a hand on me." "Trained me himself." "Your owner?" "That's just a fight term." "He own my contract, not me." "Don't nobody own me." "Not no more." " Where is your owner tonight?" " He'll be back." "He wouldn't let a fighter like me slip through his hands." "We're gonna hit the top together." "Can I get some more water?" "More water." "When I get some money in my fist, I can do anything." "Hey, Omar!" "That's one of the greatest fights I've ever seen." "You all right?" " Hi, Zeke!" "Mr. Corbino." " That's a good fight, Omar." "You beat my boy but it took you 19 rounds." " I could take on two more rounds." " That's what I like." "Spirit." "I threw that no-good Irishman out on his tail." "He won't fight for me anymore." "Hey, I won before, but this is heavier." " That's a bonus." " Thank you, Mr. Corbino." "Well, Zeke, what do you think of your new fighter?" "Me?" "Why not?" "Your father ran out on him." "I guess he belongs to you." "I think we'd better wait till you hear from your father, Zeke." "He still owns my contract." "Well, you wait until Danny Caine comes back to ask for my forgiveness and you'll be an old man before you get back into the ring." "Hey, I wanna talk to you tomorrow." "I got big plans for you." "Come on, son." "Oh, it's you again, eh?" "What do you want?" " You're no flunky kitchen help." " I seek nothing from you." "Are you giving me the evil eye?" "Hey, bring that water on in here." "He's my attendant while Mr. Caine's gone." "I hired him myself." "Paying him two bits a week." " I think you hired a troublemaker." " No." "He's a good man." "Hey, prizewinner like me?" "Got to have men working for him, don't he?" "Two bits a week." "Come on, come on, son." "I wanna talk to you about your fighter." "Got some big plans for him." "Now, what I wanna do is..." "He seeks to win the son in order to capture the father." "Wait a minute, wait a minute." "I'm taking this somewhere where it won't be stolen." "I done fought enough for one night." "I don't wanna have to fight somebody sticking they hands under my pillow." "You cannot do it alone." "I will help you." "You tell anybody where I take my money, and I'll kill you." " Omar?" "Omar?" " Yes, Mama." " You won tonight!" " That's right, Mama." "I'm a winner." "Mama, this is my friend." "Hello." "I like him." "You're my son's good friend." "I wish you'd tell him not to fight no more." "Hey, what kind of talk is that?" "Fighting's gonna make us rich, Mama." "The next time I come home, I'm coming in a golden carriage." "I've been listening for them gold wheels and the horses with golden horseshoes." "Come on in, now." "The blood that runs through your veins also flows through those of your brother." "It is these ties of blood which root us into the past  and thrust us forward into the future." "I looked for you all night." "You must have known I was here." "Danny?" "I thought you were someone else." "Danny Caine." "He would find it amusing." "After 15 years, I come running back, and into the arms of a servant." "Where's Mr. Caine?" "He's not here." " Where has he gone?" " No one knows." " He left quite suddenly." " With someone on his heels." "Trouble always followed Danny like a shadow." "I see he hasn't changed." "Well, I guess no one ever changes." "I was a fool to come to this place." "But I guess I don't change either." "Did he leave an address?" " A note, anything?" " Only his son." " Danny has a child?" " A son." "No longer a child." " The boy is here?" " Yes." "Perhaps you have seen him, tonight at the fight?" "He was at Mr. Corbino's table." "I'm busy." "What is it?" "There's a woman out here." "She mentioned the name of Danny Caine." " Danny Caine?" " Yeah." " Who is she?" " She's Nob Hill rich, a Cantrell." "Ah, Miss Cantrell, won't you come in, please." "Thank you." "Would you sit down there?" " May I offer you something?" "Some wine?" " Thank you, no." "Cantrell." "You must be the general's daughter." " Yes." " Then Harvey Prentiss is your cousin." " Yes." " I'm very grateful to Harvey." " He's helped to make me a rich man." " And you've made him a fool with your fighting and your liquor and your women." "Well, I only sell people what they want." "If they don't get it here, then they go elsewhere for it." "A starving man will pay his last penny for food and a man who's bored will pay his last penny for pleasure." "But I don't think that you came here to plead for the salvation of your cousin." "I don't think you care one way or the other." " Hey, look at this." " Hey, pup." "Well, that's a good-looking outfit." "You like it?" "I see you have an eye for beauty." "I'll have to find a pretty young girl for you." "That should be fun to me too." "Not tonight, though, right?" "I'll talk to you later." "Are you sure you won't have some champagne?" "We have all kinds of refreshments here." "Just for the two of us." "I think you're mistaken, Mr. Corbino." "I only came here to talk to you about Danny Caine." "Well, what about Danny Caine?" " I'd like to find him." " So would I." "For different reasons." "I'm not too sure the reasons are different." "Is that boy his son?" "And why do you ask that?" " Just curious." " Just curious." " About Danny Caine." " Yes." "What is Danny Caine to you?" "You know, Miss Cantrell, I've seen that look." "In a hundred different women's eyes." "I think our reasons are the same." "Revenge." "Fuller." "The lady is leaving." "Ma'am?" " Little lady, I'm..." " Let go of me." "Why are you parading around like that, if that isn't what you had in mind?" " Please leave her alone." " Look, I'll let you..." "Get your hands off me." " Let go of her, please." " This is none of your business." "Please." "Gentlemen, gentlemen." "Save your fighting for the ring inside." "McCord!" "Thank you." "McCord!" "Come on and have a nightcap with me." "I have some very good cognac." "You'll enjoy it." " Now, Fuller..." " Yes, sir." "You!" "I'll tend to you tomorrow." "Come on." "Get moving in there, Tompkins." "Get that left up there." "Come on." "Hit, hit, hit." "Move around." " Hello, Omar." " Hello, Mr. Corbino." " How are you?" " Fine." "You've been a bad boy." "Insulting my customers and bloodying up my guards." "I did what I had to." "You don't have to hit people." "To protect the lady." "I protect anybody that comes into this house." "Not some tramp from off the road." "Don't they teach you to become angry where you come from?" "I think that you've been wasting your fighting talent." "Protecting ladies." "I think you should fight for real." "Mr. Burkett, hey." "Now, you get in the ring with a boxer." "Let's all see you do your stuff now." "I do not fight for entertainment." "How about for money?" "I have no need for money." "I think you're afraid." "I am not afraid of your fighters." "Well, you're gonna have to prove it, then." "You don't fight, you get out of here." "I got all the kitchen help I need." "I will fight." "You hear that, Zeke?" "He's all yours." "You got yourself another fighter." "Introducing, in this corner, Zeke Caine's "Shanghai Kid"!" "I've never been to Shanghai." "All Chinese come from Shanghai." "Did you find him?" " No luck." " What do you mean, no luck?" "I didn't hire you to gamble." "I'm paying you to find Caine." "Sanders and Doc trailed him as far as San Rafael." "Only Doc came back." " They're out there laughing at me." " No one laughs at Vincent Corbino." "Not for long." "What about the woman?" "There's some big mystery about Delonia Cantrell's past." "Something about an awful lot of money from General Cantrell that is covered up." " Twenty-six, 27, 28, 29, 30!" "The winner tonight is Zeke Caine's Omar!" "All right, ladies and gentlemen!" "A free-for-all!" "A three-man event, using the old London rules!" "Presenting a new fighter to Barbary House, the Shanghai Kid!" "And the McAfee brothers, Joe and Tim!" "That isn't a fair fight, it's two against one!" "No, no, son, it's every man for himself!" "But they're brothers!" "Look at those skinny arms!" "This is a free-for-all!" "A best-man contest!" "I know these boys, they ain't funny." "One of them will tie you up while the other one beat you up." "So don't do it." "I have agreed." "Go!" "We're gonna shake hands first." "He's the best, isn't he?" "And the winner is the Shanghai Kid!" "You've fooled them, and I'm sure glad you did." "Shanghai, that was quite a fight." " You were magnificent!" " I had a hunch about you." "Here's your share." "I made a lot of money on you tonight." " No, thank you." " You were great, Kwai Chang!" "Hey, you!" "Come on, let him through." "Let him through." "Let him through here." "Can I ask you something?" "Yes." "Anything." "What are these?" "You have them on both arms." "I am a priest." "We follow the Tao of Shaolin." "I never heard of a priest fighting." "We are taught to defend ourselves." "But you didn't have to fight tonight." "You weren't in danger." "Corbino said I must fight or leave." "I did not wish to leave." "But why would a priest wanna be here?" "It is time for you to know." "Look at me." " You know my name." " Kwai Chang." "I am Kwai Chang Caine." "I am your father's brother." "You're my uncle?" "Yes." "But you must tell no one." "No one." "I promise uncle." "But how did you find me?" "Why are you...?" "Well, Shanghai!" "I should have kept you for myself." "But a deal's a deal." "You're Zeke's boy." "You'll be a big attraction around here." "You already have an invitation to a party." "Shanghai Kid is finished for tonight." "I promised them a fighter." "Now, listen, before you pass on this, it's Delonia Cantrell's party." "Private room seven." "You see, kid?" "Every man's got his price." "I thought you'd come." "We have much to discuss." "Our separate searches lie along the same path." "Come in." "Welcome, Shanghai!" "It's a big party tonight, but don't expect too much, too soon." "There, now you look like a proper gentleman." "Look at me tonight, sitting pretty!" "I'm a winner!" "You know it, Omar." "There's nothing but winners here tonight." "Bring them on!" "Bring them all on!" "Oh, look at those muscles." "Twenty dollars that you can't put your fist through this panel." "Get your money." " Lf you will excuse me." " Nonsense." "You've given us a show, now let us give you one." "I promise it'll be even more entertaining." "Shanghai, look what I brought you." "I have no need for clothes." "That's the joy of our way of life." "We use only what we do not need." "We do only what is not necessary." "Are you sure?" "Thank you." "Come here." "What do you want?" "I can get you anything." "Money women rich women fine clothes." "Until you tire of me as a plaything." "As they will tire of Omar." "Just one." "In the stomach." "Just one." "Just one." "You can't hurt me." "Omar will pay any price to be a man." "You make him pay dearly that his hopes for tomorrow may be realized." "Why did you call me up here?" "To find out my price?" "Because of the boy." "Zeke." "He's so friendly with you." "I wonder, what interest do you have in Danny Caine and in his boy?" "I don't have to explain myself to you." "I love him." "Can you understand that?" "Danny or Zeke?" "Can you understand the love of a mother?" "For her son?" "You are Zeke's mother?" "Yes." "For a little while, I was Danny Caine's wife." "I've never been happier." "But my father found us out." "Because I was only 16, he had the legal right to take me away." " He bought an annulment." " And Zeke?" "My father arranged it all." "I went away to have the baby, and he was taken from me." "But Danny took him." "Yes, I..." "I realize now how my father bought the annulment from Danny." "Not with money." "But for the promise of our child." "I was angry with Danny after our marriage ended." "But it was I who ran." "To South America with the new husband my father had chosen for me." "He died last year." "I am sorry." "But this is all behind." "And now you have found your son." "How can I go to him tell him?" "Won't he hate me?" "A child and his mother." "Only open your heart." "You're so kind." "So understanding." "Almost as though you were part of all this." "Who are you?" "I am Kwai Chang Caine." "Danny is my brother." "You should be working out too, unc..." "Kwai Chang." "After what after he did to them McAfee boys last night he don't need it." "A fighter has to stay in good condition." "I appreciate your concern, Zeke." "But you need not worry, I exercise in my way." " They were a triumph last night." " Sure was." "You're a big hit, Shanghai." "Big hit, you're good for business." " He sure is, Mr. Corbino." " That's right." "Putting away those McAfees." "That spread through San Francisco like wildfire." " I think he's gonna be the greatest." " We'll see about that." "I got great plans for you and your fighter." "Come on in!" "The Angel!" "There's proof of it now." "Best fight in town for your man:" "The Angel in a fight to the finish." " I don't want the fight." "Why?" "Don't you think he's good enough?" "He's good enough." "He's the best!" "All right, well, that's my best." "That's my man." "What's the matter?" "Don't you think your fighter can do it?" "He can do it, he's the best!" "I just don't want him to fight The Angel." "What is a fight to the finish?" "That's no rounds, anything goes and only one man walks out of the ring." "And the other?" "The Angel has had three fights under these conditions." "Each time he killed his man." "What do you say, Shanghai?" "Whatever the boy says." "I will not fight this man." "Mr. Corbino I'll take on The Angel." "I could use some of that money." "I'm sorry, Omar, you're stepping way out of your class." "Don't do it, Omar." "Hey, boss." "Why not let him fight him?" "The Angel's gotta fight somebody irregardless of who it is, it's gonna draw a good crowd." "You know, Fuller, that's the first time you've made sense in a long while." "All right, Omar." "You want him, you got him." "Tonight!" " Wait a minute..." " Vincent Corbino's Angel of Death versus Zeke Caine's Omar." "Yeah, doggy, that's gonna be a good one!" "Zeke, come up to the office." "We'll make the arrangements." "I'll second for you, all right?" "Come on!" "I've never seen Omar in such good condition..." "You must not fight him." "Don't tell me what to do." " You, too, think I was afraid." " Well, wasn't you?" "I will not kill for someone's entertainment." "And now, ladies and gentlemen!" "Vincent Corbino's Angel of Death against Zeke Caine's Omar, in another fight to the finish!" " Did you tell him about me?" " No." "Toe the mark!" "Go!" "All right, now, watch his jab, watch his jab." "Watch his jab!" "Get closer!" " We must get him away from here before..." " No." "We must wait until we hear from Danny." "Watch his jab!" "That's the way, now go!" "Watch his jab!" "Watch his jab!" "One more, that's it!" "Omar!" "Two, three, four, five..." "Omar." "I'm sorry." "So sorry." "Your father always treated me like a man." "Ma..." "Mama..." "Yes." "I will take you to her." "I'm alone now." "For as long as I've got left." "I got no need to listen." "Omar won't be coming down that road no more." "Never no more." " I can help you." " Thank you." "Whatever needs to be did, our friends will do it." "Oh, wait!" "I've been holding this to give to Omar." "You know the boy Zeke?" "I know him." "Take this to him." "It come tonight." "With a message from his father." "Take it." "Go to the town called Orion." "I know you mourn for Omar." "But we are leaving now, you must get dressed." " We're leaving now?" " There is word from your father." "He has sent this to you." "Hurry, Zeke." "We must leave by nightfall because you are a prisoner here." "A prisoner?" "Corbino holds you and waits for your father to come for you." "Danny knows this." "That is why he has sent for you." " We'll have to get some horses." " No." "I should've killed you the first chance I had." "Why is she here?" "Do you remember when I asked you to look at me?" "Yes." "Now look at her." "She is here because she is your mother." "It's true!" "It's true!" "Why didn't you tell me?" "This must wait till later, because we must leave." "Yes." "Quickly." "If we ride in this, they will find us quickly." "Our way will be hard." "We must cross the mountains." "And we have no food, no water." "Perhaps you would wait." "I've waited long enough." "Get after them!" "Come here!" "Get out here and get after them!" "We must go." "Quickly." "I want that kid!" "And I want Danny Caine!" "Are you all right, Mother?" "I shall never hear that word often enough." "We cannot stay here." " But she's tired." " I know that, so will Corbino." " We must move on." " Lean on me, Mother." "And on me." "[ENGLISH|"
