One of his more recent invitations is from a Mr Han. The British government is very interested in Mr Han. They believe he is responsible for prostitution, drug smuggling, and arms dealing. Lee is asked to go undercover and find proof of his crimes at the next martial arts tournament. Joining Lee, are two old friends; an American called Roper (John Saxon) and Williams (Jim Kelly).
