The plot of the movie is filled with hilarious moments that showcase Chow's signature style of humor, as well as heart-stopping action sequences that keep the audience on the edge of their seats. The story takes place when the drug lord Panther (Man Cheung) is released from prison and decides to take revenge on the police officer who put him there. The officer in question, CID detective Chow Sing Sing (Stephen Chow), is given the task of going undercover as a Chinese language teacher to infiltrate the high school where Panther's young brother is studying. The school principal (played by Anita Mui) is also hiding some secrets, which makes Chow's job even harder.

The movie is set in the early '90s and has a distinctly retro feel. The acting and dialogue are over-the-top, but that's precisely what makes the movie so entertaining.
