Quotes:

[first lines]
Johnny Wadd: [voice-over] The Chinese believe that certain pieces of jade are endowed with mystical qualities. Qualities which can pass on to its owner untold power, wealth, and happiness. A legend, I thought at first. But now I'm beginning to wonder. In fact, I've been wondering ever since a certain piece of this type of jade came into my possession by accident...
