Set in the modern day, the series follows Kwai Chang Caine, the grandson of the original character from the 1970s series, who is a Shaolin monk living in San Francisco.

The two must bridge their emotional divide while working together to fight crime and injustice in the city. As the series progresses, the duo navigates a blend of police procedural elements and mystical martial arts philosophy. Caine uses his meditative training and combat skills to assist Peter in solving complex cases, often involving supernatural threats or organized crime. Throughout the seasons, they deepen their bond, with Peter gradually learning to embrace his father's spiritual teachings while Caine adapts to the complexities of the modern world.
