A Royal Kick In The Arse

Chong Wang

 * Who loves you, baby?


 * You know what I call him? Not Roy O'Bannon. Roy O'Baloney!

Roy O'Brannon

 * [as it starts raining] Oh, this country blows.


 * That's a terrible name for a detective. Sherlock Holmes?


 * Hey, Rathbone! I was just thinking of a title for my new book. "Roy O'Brannon vs. Little Lord Sissy." Or how about "Roy O'Brannon versus the Man who would be Queen?"


 * I call that my kung pow chicken.


 * [in London] Hey, I'm walking here! You're driving on the wrong side of the road! Bunch of amateurs, these people don't get it!


 * I'm gettin' ready to launch a little thing called operation sweep her off her feet.


 * [to Chon Lin] You have a GREAT body. There! I said it! It's out in the open!


 * Ooooh... You think you're so cool with your karate... and your child-like reflexes!


 * And just to set the record straight... Roy O'Brannon is not attracted to loose women; loose women are attracted to me.


 * I see a lot of myself in that kid. It's kinda freakin' me out.


 * I'm a 30 year old waiter/gigolo. Where's the future in that?


 * Hey, Chon, you're lucky I didn't invest in that ridiculous "auto-mobile" idea. Yeah, that's gonna make a lot of money.

Dialogue

 * Doyle: I think you gentlemen should accompany me back to the Yard.
 * [cut to Roy and Chon in a cell at Scotland Yard]
 * Roy: This isn't a yard! It's a JAIL!


 * [Lin slaps Chon Wang]
 * Chon Wang: I just saved you!
 * Chon Lin: You were late!


 * Roy: Guys, do whatever you want to the kid, but that's my watch you're holding.
 * Fagin #1: Well, there's a load of us, and only two of you, so piss off!
 * Roy: Easy, fellas, you lost one war this way, don't make the same mistake twice.


 * [why Chon should sleep with the woman for money]
 * Roy: Think about your sister in London.
 * Chon Wang: What?


 * Chon Wang: It's a puzzle box. I don't know how to open it.
 * Roy: What do you mean, you don't know how to open it? You just get a hammer and smash it open so you can see what it says.
 * Chon Wang: No. I must have patience. By the time I'm able to open it, I will be ready to read the message.
 * Roy: Oh, come on, Confucius, that's the corniest thing I've ever heard!


 * Roy: Look at you!
 * Chon Wang: Look at you!
 * Roy: What brings you to New York?
 * Chon Wang: My share of the gold.
 * Roy: Refresh my memory. What gold are we talking about?


 * Chon Wang: We are wasting time.
 * Roy: What do you think I've been doing? Sittin' here and drinking expensive hooch? [to Charlie] Boy, refill.


 * Chon Wang: I look like a fool.
 * Roy: What? You're a Maharajah! That's Indian royalty!
 * Chon Wang: But I'm Chinese.
 * Roy: It's the same thing.


 * Roy: So what did your dad do? Was he an imperial guard?
 * Chong Wang: No, much more important. He was the Keeper of the Imperial Seal.
 * Roy: That's what I love about China. Everybody's job description sounds so damn cool!


 * Chon Wang: Wu Chow!
 * Roy: Wu who?


 * [after Lord Rathbone has explained his plan to become King of England]
 * Roy: Woah, woah, you're like twentieth in line for the throne.
 * Rathbone: [annoyed] Tenth. But I'll soon be taking care of that...by process of elimination.
 * [later]
 * Roy: I'm guessing by your hasty retreat that you're still twentieth in line for the throne.
 * Rathbone: TENTH!
 * Rathbone: TENTH!


 * Chon Wang: For father.
 * Chon Lin: For father.
 * Roy: For Old Man Wang.


 * Chon Wang: If you break her heart, I break your legs.
 * Roy: That's fair.
