Question: In the later scene where the two Asian gang members are being interrogated to discover who hired them, they jokingly say something to each other in their own language, the translator cop makes some smug comment back, and then reveals to Steven Bauer that their employer was Lauderdale. Is anyone able to translate what was said during this little exchange?

Factual error: There is no way that Brian could have crossed underneath a tractor trailer the way that he did on the freeway scene. The speed of the truck, moving fast at least at 60 or 65 miles an hour on a California highway, would have struck and run him over immediately had he tried to duck underneath its cargo like that on a skateboard.
Brian Kelly: If my dog had a face like yours I'd shave his ass and teach him to walk backwards.

Answer: More than likely, it was probably something made up and meaningless. But of course, we would never know because it's Vietnamese. The best you can do is have a Vietnamese person view that part of the film and get them to translate it if it was actually a real sentence being spoken, which I doubt.
