You're right - I forgot about that (I was quite young when it premiered).
In the pilot episode it is explained that Caine's beloved mentor, Master Po, is murdered by the Emperor's nephew. Caine retaliates by killing the nephew, and with a price on his head Caine flees China to the western United States where he seeks to find his family roots and, ultimately, his half-brother, Danny Caine.
