* PlotHole: The movie in no way explains to the audience how the heck Tracy, Joyce, Dragon Lee, and Jake know where Slade took their father in order to beat the location of the recovered money out of him. They just show up like they had a homing beacon on him or something.

She doesn't take him outside or get in a car and drive him to the hospital considering the fact that he was beaten all to hell by Slade and his men. She then returns to the fight three feet away from said injured father and no first aid is applied to him until all the thugs and Slade are beaten and the cops and camera crew arrive.

'''''Honor and Glory''''' is a 1993 action film starring Cynthia Rothrock.
FBI agent Tracy Pride (Rothrock) is on a mission to bust Jason Slade, a corrupt bank president who is trying to sell a stolen atomic device. Also on Slade's trail are Tracy's sister Joyce, a TV reporter, and their father John, a CIA agent. Conveniently, all of these characters are trained in kung fu.
