Their divorced father, Larry (Yueh) is a decorated member of the police force and a prison officer, who constantly disagrees with his sons on their choice in relationships with their girlfriends and demanding for them to focus on their studies and school performances. Their father's subordinate in the police force, local cop Officer King Kong, also picks on the brothers constantly, believing that they will grow up into becoming criminals.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })After failing his SAT to secure a better future in a prestigious college, Paul unexpectedly meets up with Shi-shi (Prudence Yip), a refugee from an illegal Vietnamese refugee camp.

On The Wrong Track / int_4e3d253b	comment	Downer Ending: Not only does Paul fail to outlive the credits, but things aren't looking good for Shi-shi, still stuck in a refugee camp.
