Synopsis
Ko Chow is an undercover cop who is under pressure from all sides. His boss, Inspector Lau, wants him to infiltrate a gang of ruthless jewel thieves; his girlfriend wants him to commit to marriage or she will leave Hong Kong with another lover; and he is being pursued by other cops who are unaware that he is a colleague. Chow would rather quit the force, feeling guilty about betraying gang members who have become his friends.

Quotes
Fu
[Fu talks about his family life] You know, my father was a crook. I got it from him. I just hope my son doesn't turn out like me.
Ko Chow
Is your old man still in jail?
Fu
He's been dead for ten years. My father was stupid. He got shot by the police.
Ko Chow
So you despise them?
Fu
Not at all. They were just doing their job, so why should I?
