Synopsis

Showdown in Chinatown!

Jim wants to be a normal American kid. The only problem: His grandfather is the meanest, ugliest man in Chinatown. Grandpop has no patience for his "native born, no brains" grandson, and Jim is not all that interested in hearing about old Chinese customs and superstitions.  But then a nasty green imp shows up, determined to settle an ancient family feud. The imp is making Jim's life miserable, and Grandpop seems to be the only one who can help.  Could Grandpop really be the reincarnation of an ancient Chinese warrior-- the world's only hope against one mean gree imp?
