When he triesto help a beautiful Chinese girl get away from a molester(actually, Alice [Ellen Chan] is attempting to bite the guy's neck, and he's the onetrying to get away), the Count [Peter Kjaer] slips a drug in Tsung's Coke. For the restof the evening, the virginal Tsung is seduced (and bitten) by Alice. Tomemorialize the blessed event, Tsung gives Alice the talisman he wearsaround his neck, a talisman given to him by his nurse girlfriend May Chen [Sheila Chan]to assure his faithfulness to her. When the Count later drinksAlice's blood and gets a taste of Tsung's virgin blood, he proclaims itthe equivalent of ginseng and wants more at all cost. Unfortunately, Tsunghas already left England and returned to Hong Kong, so the Count ordersAlice to go find him.

Meanwhile, in Hong Kong, Tsung is boasting to his colleagues about nolonger being a virgin. It's actually the vampire thing he should beworried about. When May serves Tsung's favorite food -- garlic shrimp --Tsung almost chokes on it. When May and Tsung go shopping, Tsung buys apair of sunglasses because the sun has begun to bother his eyes. He alsocan't resist buying a black cape. While performing surgery, Tsung beginsto salivate at the sight of the blood. He no longer goes to work in thedaytime and drinks V-8 juice "like a vampire." It's when he wakes up andfinds himself hanging from the ceiling that Tsung gets worried. Hisoperating buddies, Doctors Chin [?] and Chang [David Wu] confirm it after examiningTsung's body for bite marks.

Alice finally catches up with Tsung. Alice has fallen in love withTsung and really wants to help him. So long as he's not taken in any humanblood, she assures him, he can be saved if he a) destroys the Count(impossible), or b) finds a corpse whose blood is still warm and swapsblood with it. The next time a patient dies, Tsung does just that.Unfortunately, May is somewhat of the jealous type and has the Taoistteacher of her friend Joy [Crystal Kowk] prepare a love potion, using a few drops ofMay's blood. May pours the love potion into Tsung's chicken soup and,shortly thereafter, he turns into a full vampire.

Tonight is the night of the medical center fund-raising ceremony. Thehospital has erected a big stage on the grounds, and the ceremonialacrobats are performing the rituals to drive away the evil spirits. Whilewalking back to the hospital, the doctors and nurses come upon a corpsethat has been horribly bitten and drained by a vampire. It wasn't Tsung orAlice, so Alice can only surmise that the Count has come looking for her.Just as Alice is about to drive a broken chair leg through the corpse'sheart (before it awakens as a vampire), Chin, Chang, May, Joy, and Joy'sTaoist priest burst into the operating room. Thereafter follows 30 minutesof melee, as the priest goes after Alice and Tsung, the corpse wakes upand goes after the priest, one of the Count's vampiresses comes afterAlice and Tsung, the Count chases and bites May, Chin and Chang fire uptheir surgical laser and do battle with the Count's laser eyes, Tsungshines the surgical overhead (which forms a cross-shaped pattern of light)on the Count, and Chin and Chang go after the Count with giant syringesfilled with corrosives and poisons. The whole thing ends up on theceremonial stage where Chin, Chang, and Tsung are turned into martialartists, Alice and the Count become impaled together, and the stage blowsup (after Chin, Chang, Tsung, May, and Joy escape, of course).
