Hennessy's bodyguards, led by his right-hand-man, Jim Kavanagh, find Quan at his guesthouse but he fights them off and escapes. He orders that known IRA weapons dumps be searched for missing Semtex. Under pressure from the British government and hoping to shore up his position ahead of Northern Irish Assembly elections, Hennessy tries to identify the culprits with help from his former IRA comrades. Hennessy tells his men to find Quan and stop him.
Quan does not believe him, and sets off a homemade bomb in Hennessy's building before leaving a fake explosive on Hennessy's car as warnings. Quan seeks out Hennessy at his office but Hennessy claims to have no knowledge of the perpetrators before ejecting him from the premises. Quan purchases items to make homemade weapons and travels to Belfast, leaving the restaurant under Lam's control. Undeterred, Quan takes matters into his own hands and turns his attention to the Northern Ireland deputy First Minister and Sinn Féin politician Liam Hennessy, a former Provisional IRA leader who has since claimed to have renounced violence. Bromley advises Quan to be patient and warns him against going after the IRA. Quan takes to visiting Scotland Yard daily, asking for names of the bombers, but is told by Commander Bromley that his visits are diverting resources away from the investigation. The British police discover an IRA codeword was used in the bombing and an Irish republican group calling itself the "Authentic IRA" claims responsibility. When his teenage daughter Fan is killed in a terrorist bombing, Quan seeks revenge. Ngoc Minh Quan, a widowed former Vietnam War special operations forces soldier, runs a Chinese restaurant in London with his business partner Lam.
