Mr. Wong in Chinatown (1939)
Eine hübsche Chinesin, die den Detektiv James Lee Wong aus San Francisco um Hilfe bittet, wird in seiner Eingangshalle von einem Giftpfeil getötet. Es stellt sich heraus, daß sie Prinzessin Lin Hwa ist, die sich auf einer geheimen Militärmission für die chinesischen Streitkräfte im Kampf gegen die japanische Invasion befindet. Wong stößt in dem Fall auf zwei Captains mit dem Anfangsbuchstaben J, von denen keiner der ist, der er zu sein scheint.
