Ricky y su compañero apodado 'Músculos', son dos policías que viajan hasta Tokio para coger a un peligroso criminal. Pero cuando llegan les tienden una trampa y se llevan a Ricky secuestrado, por lo que Músculos recibe la ayuda de la inspectora Barbara Woo y del gordinflón Fastbuck para llevar el caso. Los tres, gracias a su audacia y su conocimiento en artes marciales lucharán para liberar a Ricky y cazar a los delincuentes.
Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, Yuen Biao y el resto de la pandilla viajan a Tailandia para tomarse un merecido descanso por cortesía del departamento de policía de Hong Kong.

Como era de esperar, las paradisíacas vacaciones acaban en desastre y el grupo debe regresar a toda prisa para interceptar a unos asesinos que se proponen eliminar a un señor del crimen de Hong Kong.
