The two men had befriended each other after the competition. although Ken's actions were controversial in heavily gun-controlled Hong Kong, the court finds him to be not guilty and he is released a hero. Soon after, Ken is attacked by the escaped robber Pang Tao. Their confrontation opens up a very different background story and brings about a myriad of lies and traps and changes in relationship as Jerry and Ken try to outsmart each other. (Verleiher-Text)
