Three years after the events of Rush Hour 2, Chinese Ambassador Solon Han (Tzi Ma) discusses the crucial fight against the Triads at the World Criminal Court in Los Angeles, with Chief Inspector Lee (Jackie Chan) acting as his bodyguard. Just as Han prepares to reveal the location of the elusive Shy Shen, a significant figure for the Chinese mob, an assassin strikes, triggering chaos in the courtroom. Lee, in pursuit of the shooter, discovers that it is none other than his childhood foster brother, Kenji ([Hiroyuki Sanada]).
