Valmont[after perfectly landing from a large fall] Fantastic! I've never felt so alive! [proceeds to leap up the cliff past Jackie] Something about the Statue, Chan. It's good luck! [leaves]
Good luck, or bad magic?
[Ratso and Finn sit in front of a fully transformed cat-like representation of Valmont]
Dude, check it out. [Valmont chugs a large jar of creamer] Uh, want a little coffee with your cream there, Big-V? [Valmont ignores him and just licks his fingers]
I'll give him one thing; he's very tidy.
I say we collect the dough for this thing pronto, get Valmont to a doctor. Maybe there's some kind of cure.
Don't you mean... a veterinarian?
[Finn and Ratso snicker]
I heard that. In fact, my hearing has become quite accute. There is no cure, because this is not a disease. It's a transformation. And I rather like the new me.
My patience wears thin, Valmont. Every moment spent imprisoned in this stone casement is an eternity lost!
ValmontI assure you Shendu, my men are spending every waking moment searching for your Talismans.
[Finn and Ratso enter the room arguing over a newspaper]
Aw, come on, I wanna see the baseball scores!
Nuh-uh! Not until I finish checking out Stewie Cablooie. He's the bomb!
You two! Come closer!
Uh oh...
Show me the parchment.
[shows Shendu the Sports section] You a Giants fan, Shendu?
Argh! Turn it over!
The hair plugs ad?
[seeing an article about an ancient statue] The statue of Lo Pei...
You wanna see Lo Pei, oughta check out my salary. Get it? Low pay?
So she speeds off, and then zappo, she's gone!
It was freaky, Big V! Left behind some kind of energy hole!
ValmontEnergy hole? Zappo?
A crude description, Valmont, but I indeed sense a wrinkle in time. The child has used the speed talisman to forge a tunnel to the past.
ValmontAnd if Shendu's rabbit dug a hole, all you idiots have to do to secure the Talisman is go through that hole.
But tunnels through time flow only in one direction. If you wish them to return, they will require this. [a Shadowkahn warrior presents a crystal orb to Tohru]
So uh...just how far back does this tunnel thingy go?
We talking dinosaurs?
ValmontI don't care if it leads to the Big Bang, you buffoons! Just bring me that talisman!
Young ValmontYou may have won today, Chan, but we will meet again, and-
[Young Jackie bluffs a hit inches from Valmont's face, causing him to scream and faint]
Jackie, it looks like you will have a very interesting future, with a very odd niece. One more thing. Did she say anything else about my future in antiques?
ValmontAnd now that I'm finally rid of that petulant lizard, Shendu, the Dark Hand will rise ag-
Uh, Valmont? Your pancakes are getting cold. [Valmont gives Ratso his pancake stack]
ValmontSpeaking of temperature, you'll need to acquire some serious heat if we're to embark on our epic crime spree!
Now you're talking, Big-V!
So, what's the plan?
ValmontYou three will break into Section 13 and steal the Talismans.
Whoa, again?
Uh, busting into Section 13's kinda risky.
Besides V, we don't do flunky work.
Not unless we're getting paid.
ValmontUh true, this Demon nonsense has depleted Dark Hand finances, but you know I'm good for it!
[long pause]
Okay, but you gotta make us partners.
ValmontCall yourselves Vice Presidents if you wish, just bring me those Talismans! [the restaurant bill is placed on the table, which Valmont hands to the Enforcers]
Hey!
ValmontWhat? I didn't eat.
ValmontWell?
Uhhh...
That thing about making us partners? Don't worry about it.
ValmontIf I were employing you, I would fire you!
[steps from behind a corner] You three! I require your assistance.
...So what's the gig pay?
[Daolon Wong chants an incantation which transforms Finn, Ratso, and Chow into Dark Chi Warriors]
Gan, Ren, Chui!
You're orange!
You're bald!
Freaky...
Bow before me, Dark Chi warriors.
Finn don't bow to no- [Daolon forces them to bow using Chi magic]
You are no longer mortal men, but powerful servants enslaved to do my bidding.
ValmontNow see here! Finn, Ratso, and Chow are my servants, and I will thank you not to- [Daolon Wong traps Valmont in the ground up to his neck] AH! Hey!
[detects a Talisman power] Ah, it would seem good fortune is mine, for one of the Talisman powers remains near. Come my warriors. [transports himself away]
Where'd he go? [the Dark Enforcers are transported away, leaving Valmont behind]
ValmontWait! You can't just leave me here! Release me at once!
ValmontMe, Valmont, mastermind of the Dark Hand, fleeing authorities like a common- [bumps into Daolon Wong, causing him to drop his belongings]
You!
The supplies for my locator spell! You shall suffer for what you have done!
ValmontWhat I have done? You transformed my enforcers into samurai zombies! I've been reduced to performing my own dirty work! [grabs Daolon Wong] Return Finn, Ratso, and Chow to me at once!
Ha! Why would Daolon Wong heed the demands of an insignificant pickpocket?
ValmontB- Because I'm bigger than you!
Oh? [blasts Valmont with Dark Chi magic, transforming him into a child] Not anymore.
While Uncle and I search for the horse, you two will wait here and stay out of trouble.
Aw...
Young ValmontNow see here, just because I look like a child doesn't mean you can treat me like one!
I am treating you like a criminal. Tohru will treat you like a child.
Now... [pops knuckles] Are you going to be a good little boy?
Where to, little man?
Young ValmontKempton Race Course, and if you call me that again, I will have you eliminated.
Gan, Ren, Chui!
[summons the Dark Enforcers]
Dark Finn I'm Finn, he's Ratso, that's Chow. Would it kill you to learn our names?
The horse!
[the Dark Enforcers seize Young Valmont from the horse]
Okay stretchy, get off your high horse.
Young ValmontUnhand me, you buffoons!
Whoa!
It's Big-V!
And he's mini!
Young ValmontIndeed. I attempted to liberate you three, and that rancid prune of a wizard burdened me with this juvenile curse!
Whoa, you tried to rescue us?
Aw.
We didn't know you cared!
[attacking Giant Jade]
You're going down, Queen Kong!
The bigger they are, the harder they- [Giant Jade immediately defeats them by stepping on them]
Young ValmontThey didn't see that coming?! Honestly, why did I ever want them back?!
ValmontRise and shine, Tohru.
[waking up] Where am I? Who am I?
ValmontYou are Tohru, my most loyal henchman.
ValmontI am Valmont. Don't you remember me?
I remember nothing.
Valmont[to himself] Jolly good potion. [to Tohru] It would seem you are the victim of amnesia. Allow me to fill in some blanks. I am the leader of the Dark Hand, a premiere crime syndicate, and you work for me.
[looking around at Valmont's rundown apartment] "Premiere crime syndicate"?
ValmontUm, a temporary setback, I assure you. But it was only yesterday that you and I were at the top of our game! [shows him a photo album of him during his Dark Hand days] See? You made the FBI's Most Wanted, three years running.
Oh, so it is true... But how?
ValmontOur nemesis must have throttled you famously for your entire memory to just up and vanish.
Nemesis?
Valmont[flips a page] Jackie Chan.
Chan will pay!
ValmontMany thanks for your help, Chan. A shame Tohru must render you senseless so we may get on with our crime unhindered. Tohru, if you please?
No.
ValmontWhat do you mean, no?!
You were not so loyal to your loyal henchman.
ValmontWell, I- I was simply hoping to duck away and find a large mallet with which to assist.
Something inside tells me that Jackie is my friend.
ValmontAnd something inside tells me that you are forgetting who is boss!
