Martin Riggs and Roger Murtaugh, each now feeling too old to be doing
what they're doing, try to stop the Chinese Triads from doing their
illegal business in the U.S. Uncle Benny, Chinatown's mob boss, has
imported Chinese slaves to pay for an artist to create counterfeit
Chinese currency which the Triads (led by Jet Li) will use to buy the
Four Fathers (heads of the Triads) back from the Chinese military. Chris
Rock joins the team as a new cop and Rianne's husband. Lorna is
pregnant and considers marriage with Riggs, and Leo Getz is back, now as
a private investigator.

Riggs und Murtaugh stoßen durch Zufall bei einem Angelausflug auf ein
Schiff voll gefangener chinesischer Immigranten. Der nichts ahnende
Murtaugh nimmt die Chinesen bei sich zu Hause auf. Eine Entscheidung mit
fatalen Folgen, denn die asiatische Mafia hat ausgerechnet an dieser
Familie ein hohes Interesse. Damit ist ein Zusammenprall zwischen dem
Copteam und der asiatischen Unterwelt vorprogrammiert.

LAPD sergeant Roger Murtaugh, his partner, sergeant Martin Riggs, and
their friend Leo Getz, who is now a private investigator, are out on
Murtaugh's boat, fishing in the Los Angeles Harbor, when they are
sideswiped by a huge freighter. After a wild gunfight against a group of
Chinese men who were on the freighter, it is discovered that the
freighter is full of illegal Chinese immigrants. As Murtaugh sulks over
what is left of his now sunken yacht, he discovers a hidden Chinese
immigrant family and their patriarch, Mr. Hong, and decides to take them
in. At the police station, Detective Ng expresses his belief that
Chinatown crime boss Benny "Uncle Benny" Chan is behind the smuggling.
Sergeant Lorna Cole of the Internal Affairs Division is unable to help
out on the case because she is pregnant with Riggs's baby, and
Murtaugh's daughter Rianne is also pregnant. Helping Riggs, Murtaugh,
and Leo on the case is Sergeant Lee Butters, the father of Rianne's
baby. Wah Sing Ku, a leader in the Chinese Triads, is angry about the
disappearance of the Hong family, the family Murtaugh took in, and Wah
Sing Ku and the triads are the most dangerous enemies that Riggs and
Murtaugh will ever face together. Wah Sing Ku and his men show up at the
Murtaugh house, take the Hongs, and set the house on fire with Riggs,
Lorna, Murtaugh, Rianne, Murtaugh's wife Trish, Murtaugh's other
daughter Carrie, and his son Nick inside. Unknown to Wah Sing Ku, little
Ping, the youngest member of the Hong family, was left behind in the
house. Ping frees Riggs, who frees the others. Later, when Riggs,
Murtaugh, Butters, and Lorna discover that Wah Sing Ku has killed Mr.
Hong, Mr. Hong's uncle, and Uncle Benny Chan, Roger takes it very
personally because Hong and Hong's uncle were killed.
