"Kung Fu" tells the story of Kwai Chang Caine, son of a Chinese woman and an American sailor. Caine, orphaned as a boy, was admitted as a student to the Shaolin temple, in China. Caine learned the ways of the Shaolin and became a Shaolin priest. One day he met his old master, Master Po, in a market. Master Po was shot by the Emperor's nephew, and Caine in turn killed the Emperor's nephew. Forced to flee China, Caine went to America, where he searches for his half-brother, Danny Caine.

Kwai Chang Caine is unique among television heroes. For one thing, he actually did do the crime he is accused of. A quiet, peaceful man, he is capable of extreme violence.
