Hand him over to me, Hung One.
I have no intention of doing so.
I'm asking you again,
hand him over to me.
I think you're going to be very disappointed.
Fat Ko's off the boat, Big Bro. He's safe.
Your "Red Honor" underling bumped off my man
leaving us at "The Initial 4" with a widow and orphan.
You tell me what I should do.
You tell me.
Big Pang was drunk. He threw the first punch.
He aimed every blow right at my temples!
You tell me what I should have done, Lui Fai.
Shut up, Number 8!
Fai, it was an accident. Nobody wanted it.
I'm not going back empty-handed today.
Which one is Fat Ko?
Step forward!
You're Fat Ko?
No...
Go to hell!
Stop!
Put away your guns!
Put them away!
Shut up if you're gonna stutter, Fat Ox!
And quit pulling your piece!
I...
You're not Fat Ko?
Fat Ko's so thin he's skin and bones, smart ass!
His head...
A falling flowerpot hit him in the street. Satisfied?
1st Brother,
Why did you take the bullet for me, 1st Brother?
If you were to die tonight
I don't think I'd live to see tomorrow, either.
Besides, I never wanted you dead.
We three are all that's left of 8 brothers.
Not even enough for mahjong, 4th Brother!
Listen, everyone. I, Lui Fai, say this to "The Initial 4" today:
Whatever our future
disputes with "Red Honor"
as long as the Hung family is in charge
be it his children or grandchildren
I will not see any more blood flow between us.
Understood?
Yes, Big Brother.
No more talk, No. 8.
- Let's take 1st Brother to hospital. - Yes.
Make way...
Comes, sister-in-law.
Did he take the painkillers I gave last time?
No. He's very stubborn.
You must get him to hospital ASAP.
I need to discuss it with him first.
Ah Hei, see Dr Wong out.
Yes. Please come with me.
Thank you.
1st Brother, are you awake?
How long have we been brothers, No. 8?
It's been more than 40 years.
Remember
how we all swam here from Chiu Chow?
But Brothers No. 2, 5 and 7 skipped breakfast
and didn't have the strength to get to shore.
They came for me yesterday
and said they'd bring me back with them.
Don't say such things. You'll recover.
Can you do me a favor, No. 8?
Of course.
Orgy, I'm getting worse every day.
I know I don't have much time left.
Come back to Hong Kong
and take over as head.
Orgy, Red Honor leads a leader...
Cut it out, will you?
I wrote the letter! I don't need you to read it to me!
It clearly written here as "Orgy".
Who's ever heard of anyone called "Orgy"?
Did you want to write "Georgie"?
I forgot how to write it.
You trying to diss me?
Let's move.
Move where?
To look for something.
Never heard 1st Brother had a son.
I only just found out myself.
1st Brother's been single all these years.
Of course he's had a few women.
It's good. We find Georgie
and make him head
then the Initial 4 won't come looking for trouble.
1st Brother said the photo's here. It's impossible!
Found it!
Look!
My long-lost year of
the Tiger Shaved Pussies special!
How come it's here with 1st Brother's stuff?
No, really, dad. Look!
Shut up!
How many times did I say, don't call me dad?
How many times do I have to tell you, fool?
But there's no one else here.
I'm really your son. Why can't I?
Because I say so. Call me 8th Master!
You want to talk back, boy? Go do your job!
Look. Take a look at this.
- What? - Come take a look.
This is the one. This is it.
This is the photo. He really looks like Big Brother.
Look at the curl of his mouth. How cool!
They do look alike.
The problem is, he doesn't like women.
What?
Holy shit! He's gay?
Why don't you say it louder, you idiot?
Want me to get you a loudspeaker?
So, what do we do?
Now we have the photo, where do we find him?
Good question.
As they say: For girls, go to Mongkok, but for boys, it's...
Bangkok!
THAILAND
Thank you!
Okay, good job! Everybody keeps up the energy!
Is it 501 or 507?
It's got to be a 7, there's a slash.
If it's 1 it'll be straight.
Wait... dear! Okay? Presentation is everything!
A customer wants to see you.
Okay, sure.
Frankie my waitress tells me about a complaint here, is that right?
Yes.
This is just not sweet enough.
Oh, really? Then how sweet should it be?
I don't know.
Sweeter than this?
Thanks.
Hello, I want Hung Chi-Kit, Georgie. Georgie.
Forget it. What use is English in Thailand?
You should be speaking Thai.
Hi. We're from Hong Kong,
to see Hung Chi-Kit.
Georgie, you understand? Chi-Kit
Who are you? You looking for masseuses?
The girls aren't at work yet. Come back later.
Too many tourists, and not enough girls to go round.
Shut up! Shut up!
Listen to me! Georgie!
I told you, you should speak Thai.
English will do. Georgie...
Do you want a massage?
She's asking if you want a massage.
Masseuses don't work so early, do they?
What a dragon among men, a king among fruits!
Big Brother.
You want me to be Big Brother?
If no one takes care of business at Red Honor
other Triad gangs will try to muscle in.
Then it'd be like the Yellow River flooding:
There'll be no holding back the damage.
Take care of business? I... don't like the work.
I don't think I can handle it.
There's really no work involved in being Big Bro
and there are all sorts of perks, too:
You get a discount on massages
and chicks absolutely for free!
As for booze? All you can drink, every night!
Wouldn't you say it's great fun?
As for you being gay, we know that already.
Yes, about you being gay.
It's a secret only the three of us know.
If you're willing to come back with us
you can have anything you want.
That's right. Say it.
Whatever you say, Big Brother.
Say it.
Open your mouth.
What?
Open your mouth.
8th Master!
Open your mouth!
Wider.
A bit more.
Wider.
So many cavities. You should see a dentist.
Really?
You should see a dentist.
Just fooling with you!
As you're so sincere, and came all this way...
Who's this?
Sam, my boyfriend.
I'm Sam? I'm your boyfriend?
No need to repeat the intro. Come, we need to talk.
Make yourselves at home. We won't be long.
What's with all this strange behavior?
I have good news and bad news.
Which do you want first?
- They're... - I'll tell you.
Good news is, I'm going to be a Big Bro.
Bad news is, your dad's seriously ill.
When did this happen?
I'm not sure.
But those two guys came all this way to find me...
I mean, find you so you can go see the old man.
Are they looking for you or me? And what Big Bro?
You've got it made, your dad's a Triad boss.
You never told me.
I sent him this photo when we graduated.
He tore off the half that had me on it.
It meant he didn't want to see me.
I've got to go out and tell them...
No! Don't blow my cover just yet!
You know I always wanted to be a Big Brother.
Since they think I'm you
why don't you give me a chance?
Let me go to Hong Kong and be a Triad.
Sam, being a Triad is no joke.
You could get chopped up any time.
It's too dangerous. I won't let you.
If you go out now, I'll never forgive you.
Please! I'm an orphan,
and we're buddies!
Just this once!
What?
1st Brother's dead!
I can tell which one in a gay pair is the bitch.
How can you tell?
It's easy.
To tell who's the bitch, you just need to look.
If the butt-cheeks are separated and tilt up
and there's a big wiggle in the walk
then that one's the bitch for sure.
Are we buying crabs here? "Wiggle in the walk"!
Just having a discussion. No need to get angry.
This the car?
What the hell!? We're riding in a mini-van!?
It's just something we hired, Big Brother.
As the top echelon of the Triads
we should have more than one set of wheels.
Hiring makes it easier to switch vehicles,
making it harder for people to ambush us.
It looks the same as when I was little.
Once 1st Brother's funeral is over
I'll pick an auspicious day
for your takeover ceremony as Red Honor head.
Oh, Big Bro
I know how close you are with our "sister-in-law"
but you're head of a Triad now, so
try to keep your distance
in front of people
or you'll lose credibility.
I suppose you're both tired.
- Kin, take them for a rest. - Yes.
Come with me to the Banging Room.
No need for that, just the bedroom will do.
Same difference. This way.
I'm so tired.
Go to sleep.
Would you sleep over there, please?
You had enough to eat?
You're a boy! Why do you play with this all the time?
Give it back! Give it back!
Listen to me, Kit. You're the son of Hung One.
I won't have you behaving like a sissy.
People will laugh at you if you play with dolls.
Your mom's already gone. If you don't behave
I'll leave you as well.
Mommy...
How many, Miss?
He's already here, thanks.
How are you, Mr. Ho?
Let me tell you about our available plans.
Our company's recently introduced a new plan
called "Looking to Tomorrow".
The entire plans provides cover for everything
from death and medical to illness and accident...
Miss Lui...
Call me Julie.
Mr. Ho, are you feeling hot?
I've decided to take you up on it.
Mr. Ho, having an exalted client like you
is indeed our company's honor. Thank you.
No. Helping out Lui Fai's daughter
not to mention safeguarding my own life
the honor's all mine!
Where do I sign?
What connection do you have with my dad?
Who are you? How come I've never seen you?
Are you one of his new henchmen? Speak!
No! It's got nothing to do with Mr. Lui!
Just tell me where to sign and let me go!
Who needs customers like you? I've got plenty!
Woe is me! She won't sell me insurance!
Woe is me!
Mr. Chan? Yes...
You're not free?
It'll only take 10 minutes.
I'd like to explain our company's new plan...
OK,
we'll fix another time. OK. Bye!
You're lucky I'm short of my monthly quota.
You'll sell me insurance?
Where do I sign?
Here.
You wanted me, Big Brother?
Yes, Chow.
You know why I called for you?
Yes.
You want me to leave Red Honor alone.
Don't worry. I won't touch them.
Good. Hung One's only just died.
If we of the Initial 4 muscle in on them now
what would the other Triads say of us?
Besides, I gave my word to Hung.
Don't worry, Big Bro. I won't touch them.
I'll be going.
Chow. Do you still bear a grudge
Because I didn't stand up for your dad?
I don't bear a grudge.
But my mother did.
Take some rest.
Miss!
Daddy!
You better not be blaming me for something again.
You had nothing to do with Leung's $1m policy?
Leung? I haven't seen him for ages.
Did he come to see you?
Daddy, I don't want people saying
I only get ahead at work because of you!
Would you just leave me alone?
Sweetie, what do you take me for?
You really think my reach is that long?
They come to you not because they fear me
but because they want to suck up on me.
You're my daughter. Daddy can't just ignore you.
Sorry. I know you love me
but I really want to know if I'm any good.
Come on. Just let me try.
OK, daddy promises. No more interference.
Alright?
Thanks, dad.
OK. But promise daddy one thing.
Come with me to a funeral.
I want you to pay last respects with me
to a brother who once took a bullet for me.
Big Bro, with so many brothers here today
it'd be nice if you can shed a tear or two.
And since the place's so big
it wouldn't hurt if you ham it up a bit.
I've already prepared some eye drops.
Watch me.
I'm a terrible son! I've come too late!
I couldn't even see you off, dad!
Why? Why? Why...
- Get up. - I'm not getting up! Why?
I'm not getting up!
Disgraceful! This way!
A moment, please.
First bow, second bow, third bow.
Family give thanks.
Thank you, 4th Brother.
How have you been keeping?
Don't be too sad, No. 8.
Allow me. Hung Chi-Kit, 1st Brother's son.
Georgie, this is Uncle Lui, head of the Initial 4.
Uncle Lui. Just call me Georgie.
Young people nowadays are the ones to watch!
I had an oral agreement with your late dad.
You just devote yourself to Red Honor.
Don't worry about anything else.
If there's anything you need, come to Uncle.
Don't expect too much of me. It's a lot of pressure!
I mean, I'll do my best, Uncle.
Good! Let me introduce you.
My daughter, Lui Yuk-Wan.
Daddy!
OK.
Call me Julie. How do you do?
- Julie - How are you?
This is Cheng Chow, my second-in-command.
Georgie.
Sit up here.
You know that's Lui Fai's daughter beside him?
What a babe, eh?
Remember your sexual orientation.
Your eyes are popping out.
Who's the dude?
Cheng Chow, Lui Fai's right-hand man.
They say he kicks serious ass.
Well? You fancy him?
Big Bro, you were so good to me in life
I have nothing to give you.
If you like this book, I'll burn it for you.
I'll burn you a whole news stand each month!
Rest in peace!
Hung One had a son. Did you know that?
We'll talk about this when we get back.
Dad, I don't want to go to boarding school!
Dad! I'll be good! I don't want to go!
Dad!
Kit, be a good boy.
Remember, see him to the gates.
Understood, 1st Brother.
Go.
Young master.
I don't want to go.
"Daddy, I love you. Don't send me away."
Something on your mind, Master Chow?
Man-Cheung, how do I treat you guys?
One word
Good!
If I break with Big Brother one day
whose side will you stand on?
One word from you, and all the guys are with you.
Do you know how many more sons Hung had?
It doesn't matter how many sons he had.
We know what to do.
The accounts. Make sure it all tallies.
Understood, 8th Master.
There's also 1st Brother's personal effects.
Put it all away safely.
A doll? Did 1st Brother play with dolls?
Can it be an antique?
Antique your ass!
Do the accounts!
Cool it! Cool it!
Really!
It's great being Big Brother.
No queuing up, no entry fee
Big Bro, this is our joint.
Try going to the one next door. What a queue!
Go!
- Big Bro! - Brother Kin. Brother Kin.
- Brother Kin... - OK, knock it off.
Big Bro, there are lots of our guys around.
We'll get a girl to come over later.
Just force yourself to give her ass a squeeze.
- I know it's chore... - Fine!
Sister-in-law, you understand, it's just...
That's OK, I understand.
Sorry about that...
I'll go do something useful.
Big Brother.
Be sexy!
Big Brother, you're so handsome!
What's your name, Miss?
My name's Man-Man.
Man-Man?
I'm a bit busy today.
Give me your phone number then.
Number? Can you give me yours?
Sure. Got a pen
Pen?
You don't have a pen?
Will lipstick do?
Where did that lipstick come from?
Don't ask.
- Where do I write it? - On the hand.
Why not on the back?
No!
- The back! - No, I hate you.
"Plumbing Services 90780760"
It's late, let's go.
Recognize who that is?
It's Julie, Lui Fai's daughter.
Yes, I recognize her.
Come over, come.
No.
Just to say hello. Come...
I'm not going.
What's the matter?
Suit me?
Suits me.
Sort it out yourself.
Georgie
Julie, it's you? Are you alone?
Yeah. I'm usually alone. Used to it.
Me too.
- Really? - Yeah.
What's wrong?
What's wrong with you?
I want to have sex!
How did you get so drunk?
- Bao! - Yes!
Take him home.
What about Big Brother?
Shing can stay. I'll take care of him.
No more talk, let's go.
Kin, let's go.
- Let's go. - Come on...
I... I want to have sex!
Let's go.
- Have you got a sister? - Yes.
What's this?
Five Grains Wine.
What, "Gain Fine Wives"? Kick ass!
Again?
Gain me 20 more Fine Wives, please!
Gain 20 Fine Wives!
Ready to go yet? Sun's come up.
Hey!
Shing!
Yes, Brother Sam?
- Drive round to the door. - Sure.
Thank you...
The sun's very bright!
Sit down for a while.
Waiting for a ride? Forget about it.
Go.
After them!
I'll do it.
Let me do it.
Stupid bitch!
Miss? Run!
Run!
Are you alright?
Give me a kiss, give me a kiss.
Good night!
Give me a kiss...
Bugger off! Your breath stinks!
Sam, I'd never have thought
a nice kid like you could fight so well.
I trained in kick-boxing in Thailand.
8th Master, we've found out.
It was people from The Initial 4.
Didn't Uncle Lui swear an oath with my dad?
Why would he come after us?
It's not Lui who's after you. It's Chow!
Big Pang of the Initial 4 was Chow's father.
He and Fat Ko of Red Honor
came to blows over a dinner bill
and got killed accidentally by Ko.
That's why Chow hates us Red Honor guys.
So, 8th Master, I'm in deep shit, right?
Yeah, you're in deep shit alright.
I suggest you don't go out. Stay home.
I'll get bored.
Don't worry, Big Bro.
Whatever you can do outside, you can do at home.
What the hell's the matter with you?
I'm the masseur. Kin told me to look after you.
Masseur?
Shit!
Want some fruit?
Just put it down.
Hei, what are you doing here?
Kin told me to keep you company.
Everything alright, Big Bro?
Just give the word, I'll beat the crap out of her.
Hei, you go out first. I'll call her if I need her.
You go out first.
Thank you.
I'll call you if I need you.
What are you doing, Big Bro?
So you're...
Wrong Website!
That's right!
You made a mistake!
Do you know how to get out?
Let me do it.
I found the dirtiest gay porn site in the world!
Here, look. See? Hard or what?
The muscles, I mean.
Really something else, eh?
Hey, guy.
Juicy... puss... pussy...
8th Master!
Still up?
I'm not tired. This doll...
Uncle Hung left it.
May I have it?
Take it. If you like it, take it.
Thanks! Good night.
Good night.
A bitch is a bitch.
Sexy mother!
Our "Love You to Bits"
Policy is really great.
You should seriously consider it, Mr. Leung.
To tell you the truth,
when it comes to the insurance business
I really couldn't give a shit.
If it weren't to please my mother
I wouldn't even be talking to you.
Your mom wouldn't know my dad, would she?
My mom says, insurance protects your children.
I know older people worry about their kids,
Especially kids from rich families like mine.
You understand that, right?
But it's school, then work, your whole life!
She even interferes when it comes to love!
I'm like a string puppet,
pulled this way and that.
It's really exhausting!
Your mom's like that too? So's my father!
He always decides what's right for me
then makes me do things I don't like.
He never cares how I really feel.
Our backgrounds are so similar!
I'm enjoying chatting with you more and more.
I think we have the same way of thinking.
I think you and I are going to be...
great friends!
I'm signing this policy for sure.
Really? Thank you, Mr. Leung.
As a formality, I need to explain certain things.
One: In the first year we'll charge
a 100% deposit as an initial fee.
Two: Each time you renew thereafter
we'll charge an extra 5% fee
on that sum.
Three: This item here...
Mr. Leung, is something wrong with your hand?
My hand's fine, but...
I don't know, I couldn't
take in a word you said.
I wonder if something's wrong with my ears
or with your mouth?
Maybe we should do a body check?
Sure, a body check's
a standard requirement.
Why don't we come over to my place to do it...
Mr. Leung, you... I think you're...
You can check my ear, and I'll check your mouth...
No! I think you've got it wrong!
Let's check our ears together. Come...
You want to do a body check?
Why don't you let me oblige you with that?
Who are you?
I'm her boyfriend. Apologize to her!
Sorry! Sorry!
Don't let me see you again!
It hurts!
Still here?
Did you mean what you said just now?
What did I say?
That you'll be my boyfriend.
You're Sam, right? Have you got a girlfriend?
I've got a boyfriend.
Very funny.
I've got to go.
Wait for me...
Do you know what this photo's trying to express?
I think the two matches
represent different temperaments.
One is passionate, the other's reserved.
There can be no fire even if they come together.
No. See? That one's wet.
There's a pool of water. How can it burn?
That's a very complex interpretation.
I'm not talking to you anymore.
Did I say something wrong?
Don't follow me.
I want to thank you for taking me home last time.
I think you're really special:
Your eyes, your smile, the way you talk...
you're not like other guys.
You're absolutely right there.
The thing is, I like guys.
I'm gay.
That's really funny!
I'm serious.
You're going just like that? You chased off my client!
Why don't you buy a policy from me?
The younger you start, the better.
How could I have shot at myself?
It was a straight shot alright.
Straight shot? That was clearly a curve!
What curve? Are you blind or what?
You guys like watching soccer?
Not just watching. Playing, too.
But since reaching the fifth month of pregnancy
there's nothing I can do looking like this.
This kid's not bad. Used to play junior league.
Then he got kicked out in the selections.
How come?
'Cos his old man's a Triad!
That's right. What a bummer!
He did badly in school, couldn't play soccer,
so he drifted into the Triads.
All thanks to you, dad!
Don't, don't mention it.
How come in front of the boys, you two...
You want to know why he doesn't call me dad?
As you know, men like us have lots of enemies.
If I get whacked, and my son gets whacked too
it'd be the end of the family line.
Don't worry. You have the looks of someone
who'll see his children in the grave first.
Slap your shitty mouth! I'm going!
I'm not slapping. What are you gonna do about it?
Is that the final whistle? I lost!
Great! Fork it over. Five hundred bucks!
Fork what over? I'm your old man!
Don't talk to me like you're my creditor!
Why not? A Triad doesn't have 500 bucks?
Sure I do, but I'm not giving it to you!
I'll give you this.
A pocket watch? You should be wearing a gold Rolex!
How else would you gain respect?
It's for stopping bullets, kid.
Stop bullets? Why not give me a cast iron wok?
C'mon, pay up! Five hundred bucks!
Life is precious!
- Are you paying up or not? - No.
I'll gut you with a bottle!
Ooo, I'm scared! Gut me!
I'll really do it!
Come and try...
What are you giving me a feather for?
To sign with.
Sign what?
Sign these documents here, Mr. Hung, and
you'll be the Red Honor society's new CEO,
taking over all of its businesses.
Triad takeover ceremonies are so corporate now!
What about lion dances and burning joss sticks?
Quit talking. Just sign your name,
or it'd be past the auspicious hour.
Just sign it, the page behind.
All done, 8th Master.
Ceremony complete!
Thank you! Thank you!
Heaven's decreed that the clouds be parted
to symbolize Red Honor's...
Quit fooling.
Be serious.
Come with me.
This Red Honor Sword
has fought countless battles
and tasted much sweat and blood on our behalf.
Most importantly, this sword is the symbol
of Red Honor' hereditary power.
I now pass it on to you.
Big Brother's spirit will look over you.
Safeguard it well.
I now formally declare:
Georgie is the new head of Red Honor!
Big Brother...
Damn it!
All the Triad heads say they're too busy to come!
Damn them all to hell!
Everyone and his dog comes if there's a free meal.
They're obviously not giving me face!
I heard a few things on the grapevine
but I don't know if I should speak up...
Speak up! Haven't you had enough to eat?
Are you telling me or not?
Speak!
Chow's been spreading the word:
He'll mess up anyone who comes tonight.
Damn him!
We told everyone it's debut as Big Brother.
They're not giving face to Red Honor's new head!
Big Brother, you just give the word
and I'll go take care of him!
Wait! Let's wait and see.
Do we really have to wait?
Mr. Hung, our kitchen closes at 11.
Can we start serving now?
Just give the word, Big Brother.
Take it away.
OK...
Kitchen, no one's coming to the Hung party.
You can all go home now.
Repeat.
What?
I said, no one's coming to the party,
you can all go home. Got it?
Roger that.
Hello?
Hi, Georgie? I'm Man-Man.
Wait.
What the fuck!
Sorry, 8th Master.
Sure I did. Great. How's next week?
I'll call you.
Bye!
I already don't serve. What's up now?
You want to get me?
What the fuck!
Where's Kin gone? Where's Kin?
Kin...
Has anyone seen Kin? Where's Kin?
- Haven't seen him. - Kin...
Where's Kin?
Brother Kin
Kin...
Kin, don't scare me. Kin...
Kin, you OK? Kin.
Kin, don't scare me.
You've got to hold on...
I'm very cold...
Cold? I'll hold you, I'll hold you.
Stupid kid! What a thing to say.
That I'd see my son in the grave!
It's all my fault!
I should've let you play soccer,
forget the Triads!
I'm very cold!
Ambulance! Has anyone called an ambulance?
I gave you the pocket watch to stop bullets.
Why weren't you wearing it?
You were really asking for it!
Son! It really stopped the bullet!
He's not going to die!
Kin, you're not going to die! You'll be OK...
Switch off the air conditioning, dad.
Switch off the air conditioning, you idiots!
What did you call me?
Dad!
That sounds good. Again! Say it again!
Dad!
That sounds good, that really sounds good.
It's very cold, dad.
He called me dad! My son!
What are you doing here?
Practicing kung fu. It's dangerous being Big Bro!
It's a bit late to learn kung fu now.
Why not use this?
Take it.
I can't protect you all the time.
Heartfelt, brother.
Thanks.
I still think there's a problem with your figure
What problem?
A figure like yours...
Why not...
Bao, what did he do?
Caught him selling pirated CDs on our turf.
Did he say who he's with?
His name's Cock Head.
He's under Chow at the Initial 4.
Brother Cock Head, isn't it?
Are you here to sell pirate CDs or to screen test?
You're dressed like you're going on stage.
Beat me all you want, but don't touch my hair.
Scissors!
What should we do?
Same as always. Chop off his hand.
Is the underworld always so bloody?
No, but with so many people present
the least you could do is chop off his hand.
It's credibility. Just chop him up a little.
Machete!
Yes!
Be quick with it. I've got work to do.
Tough kid. Not scared of getting chopped?
You're an interesting guy.
Cool, eh?
Don't copy me!
Vengeance! Master Chow, avenge me!
Georgie told me to tell you:
Red Honor is no pushover.
He says you better get smart
Master Chow...
That's why I keep telling you to use your brains!
You can't just chop people up all the time!
You're the man, Big Bro!
Yeah, you're the man!
On behalf of the boys, I say: Respect!
Respect!
So, why did you ask me out?
I'd like you to be my boyfriend.
Julie, why don't we become sisters?
I don't want to be sisters.
The night's so beautiful, the moon's full. Oh?
What do you want? Fight with me over a man?
Who's fighting with you over a man?
I want to fight, you'll lose for sure.
You damned faggot!
Talk to the hand, bitch!
Stop right there!
Forget it. Dissing me is the same as dissing him.
Tell me, when did you know
you preferred men?
What's it to you?
I want to know if your being gay is nature or nurture.
Come with me.
If it's nurture, you're bound to regret it.
Well? Anything? Any reaction?
Yes...
Really?
Then it can really be turned around! Yeah!
I'm so happy! That's really great!
He's really handsome!
I'm not playing anymore. Let's go.
Let's go. I'm not playing.
Let's go!
Big Brother, 8th is here.
OK.
4th Brother.
Why have you called for me so urgently?
I've decided to give my daughter to you in marriage.
No way!
I once made a solemn vow
only to love a single person in my life.
Su-Ching might be dead for 20 years
but I'll not break my oath of love to her.
I'll never marry again.
I'm not taking about you.
I'm talking about him.
You really gave me a fright there!
You mean Georgie?
That's right. You agree?
Why wouldn't I agree?
But we still need to ask nephew here.
Nephew, do you agree?
If I get married with Julie
our gangs will become Triads-in-law.
We'll become one big family, right?
We'll make money together, and cut out rivalry.
Uncle's really got it all worked out.
OK, what I say cannot be taken back.
What do you say?
I...
I'll take your silence as a yes. Good!
Good!
1st Brother's spirit in heaven must be...
really happy!
So we have a deal. Good!
Hi, I'm Breeze.
Hi, I'm Precious.
Chicks?
You're marrying Julie soon.
Now's the time to turn your yin into yang!
Big Bro, please make love!
All set, Big Bro?
8th Master, he even quicker than you!
I'd never thought Red Honor
would have two fast guns among us!
Three, actually!
Why did you agree to marry Georgie?
You clearly don't like him. Why?
Daddy's always loved me very much.
From when I was in school to working now,
all my life, in matters great and small,
he's always arranged everything for me.
He's only ever wanted what was best for me.
I never thought he'd pick my husband, too.
Wait!
Didn't you like looking at photographs?
The girl in this one knows love's to be fought for.
All she wants is to be happy.
That's as simple as it is.
However much the world changes,
there are some things that never change.
I shouldn't be appearing in this photo.
Sorry.
Hello? Frankie?
I'm going to be in Hong Kong longer, so... Hello?
Hello?
There are lots of seats here.
Why don't you sit over there?
Over there?
Feeling better?
You're feeling unhappy?
Yes. There's a client
I've been trying to meet,
but I could never get an appointment. Useless!
Actually, girls don't have to be too brilliant;
The dumb ones are more attractive.
What do you like about me? That I'm dumb?
I... I didn't mean it that way!
I really like you...
I really like you a lot...
really like you!
They're so annoying, always staring at us.
Let's go over there and talk.
Do you really want to marry me?
No.
Why not?
Marriage doesn't guarantee anything.
A marriage certificate doesn't mean anything.
He most important thing is being in love, right?
I hate the kind of girl
who only wants sex without love.
They're so shallow!
Sorry, when Uncle Lui brought up our marriage
I should have given him a firm no.
But I reiterate:
I really like you a lot.
If only love is something that can be insured!
Why don't I become your client?
You?
I wonder if Triads can get insurance?
It depends on the circumstances.
If there's nothing physically wrong with you
and you have a proper job, that's basically enough.
Does chopping people
up count as a proper job?
That's a high-risk occupation, I need to check back with the company.
But...
Uncle Lui, I've thought it over.
I'm not going to marry Julie.
Why not?
Julie's a nice girl
and I like her a lot,
but the problem is, have you asked what she wants?
Don't worry about that.
She'll do whatever I say.
The issue's not whether she does or not,
it's whether she's happy or not.
If your decision's only for the sake of the Triad
then it's very unfair to Julie.
You don't understand either.
Georgie...
I know why he doesn't want to marry Julie.
Chow, what are you doing?
It's because he doesn't like women.
He's a homosexual.
What did you say?
You two said it? You yapping for a slapping?
We didn't say it. He said so himself.
I really can't become straight.
We're sisters, help me out here.
Yeah.
4th Brother.
I want to hear it from you.
Yes, or no.
Big Bro, tell 4th Brother. Say you're not gay!
Say it!
Sorry.
I am gay.
Then you've been toying with Julie?
Toying with her is toying with us 4 Initials.
Brothers, do your jobs.
- Yes. - Understood.
Stop!
I'll kill the first man who makes a move!
Out of my way!
No. 8, you go ahead.
OK. Let's go.
Sorry, Uncle Lui.
Go.
Chow, come with me.
Chow, I know Pang's dead affected you deeply.
- Say no more. - Chow.
I'll let you take my place. This thing's settled?
Not everything can be just forgotten like that.
Not my old man's death.
Big Brother!
Go back to Thailand?
No, I won't.
This thing's getting out of hand.
If we go on, you'll be in grave danger.
Listen to me, come back with me to Thailand.
I'm now the Big Brother of Red Honor.
How can I go at a time like this?
If I go, what happens to those under me?
I won't be a chicken shit Big Bro. Sorry.
You're no Big Bro.
What are you saying?
I'm saying you don't even belong here.
Everything you now have is a bonus,
understand?
I understand. Nothing here really belongs to me.
It all belongs to you!
People outside are saying I'm...
I'm lovers with you. Do you know that?
I never said a thing. Why?
Because you're my best friend.
I swallowed it all.
My boss called me just now. I'm fired.
I phoned Frankie. He wouldn't answer my call.
I have nothing left.
You have nothing left? I never had anything at all!
No parents, no relatives.
Being a Big Brother was my greatest dream.
I have it now.
If I go back with you,
I won't have anything.
Yes you will.
A good friend. Me.
There's no point in staying here.
You've been a Big Bro. You had your time.
Let it go, Sam.
Sorry. My name's Georgie.
Fine, fine!
He's really gay!
Do we follow him into the john
if he asks?
What shall I do? I'm so good-looking!
Don't worry, he won't hit on you.
Actually...
- Big Brother. - Big Brother.
Big Brother.
Gay!
Brother Georgie, whether you're gay or not
I'm behind you all the same!
Who the hell are you?
The masseur.
I'm... I'm your Little Brother.
My name's actually David.
You never really noticed me much...
I've noticed you.
You've always seemed different from the others.
Let me stick closer to you.
Give me a chance.
You're... gay?
I love you, do you know that?
Big Brother.
Julie's waiting for you.
There's something I want to ask you.
Go ahead.
Is it true what Chow said?
It's true, but also not true.
How can it be both? Tell me!
I don't know what to say.
The two of us are a pair of good friends...
No, we're good friends, but not a pair!
Not...
Bottom line is, Georgie's gay and I'm not!
What do you mean? You're Georgie! You're not Georgie?
You're really Sam?
Actually, Georgie's Hung One's son,
but he didn't want to take over Red Honor
so I did it in his place.
I'm just a stand-in Big Brother.
I'm really Sam.
So, do you still think of me as a friend?
You only did it to help Georgie.
I'm not mad at you.
I've got to go.
Want me to see you off?
That's great, having someone pick you up.
No need. I'll see myself off.
"If I could turn back the clock, I want to watch you grow up with my own eyes."
1st Brother didn't send you away because you're gay.
What father wants his son to be a Triad?
When 1st Brother died he said to me,
he didn't want his Triad status affect your future.
That's why he sent you to study in France.
1st Brother loved you very much.
8th Master, Chow's nabbed Big Brother!
Address him as Big Brother!
You don't have to call me Big Brother.
But I confess, I'm the real Georgie.
I'm the real son of Hung One.
The one they nabbed ain't our Big Bro. Why should we save him?
Don't be like this! If you don't stick together
Red Honor will fall apart!
Why did you join Red Honor?
Answer me!
People say the Triads look out for each other,
but how many can really do it?
Since becoming Big Brother, Sam
hasn't done great, but he did nothing bad either.
OK, so Sam's not Hung One's son,
but if anything happened to any of you
I know he'd be the first to stand up for you.
Now he's in trouble, who'll stand up for him?
I admit I'm gay,
but I stand up for other people.
Remember, a Big Brother's for life.
Now your Big Brother's in trouble,
and I'm going to save him right now.
Wait.
You forgot something.
Big Brother!
8th master, you stay here.
If I don't come back, you take charge.
I'm a good fighter! I can help you.
You guys be careful.
Kin, you too.
I know, dad.
Let's go.
Go kick some ass!
Ma, Pa,
Red Honor won't last till tomorrow.
Split up and look!
Go!
You two go rescue them. I'll take care of here.
What the hell can you do?
And what the hell can you do?
I'm a Japanese karate champion!
Me?
I'm a Japanese Harajuku sales champion!
Eat shit, eat shit...
Where's your switchblade?
You're getting warmer.
Lower.
That's the knife!
But could you pull it out of my ass first?
Sure.
Karate?
David, it's lunchtime!
Yummy!
Must be tasty!
How are you, daddy?
Kin, things are getting hot back here. Split!
You take daddy back first.
What about you?
I'll be fine, you go ahead.
You be careful.
Quick!
Watch them for me.
Be careful.
You OK?
It really hurts!
"Boundless Prospects"?
Not the words. Look at us.
Don't we make a fine couple?
Sam, are you alright?
The next time I buy insurance,
I'll definitely make you the beneficiary.
Actually, it's me who's Hung One's son.
Your father's death was an accident.
Why can't you accept that? It's a knot in your heart,
you must untie yourself. No one else can help you do it.
Hey, I'm dying here.
Could you wait till we get outside first?
- Okay. - Come and help me.
Be careful.
From this day forth,
two Big Brothers will take charge of Red Honor.
Georgie, you and Sam must be like chopsticks.
Work as a pair, and make us proud. Understand?
Yes, 8th Master.
Sorry.
Kin,
where's Sam going?
To pay protection money.
Sam's off to pay protection money!? But he's a Triad boss!
Who's he paying? How much?
Is it going to be dangerous?
Why doesn't he take me?
Ash tray.
I'm really worried about him!
I miss you very much.
If you miss an installment, your policy will be void.
It's just insurance, not protection money!
You don't need to get so serious about it.
Yes I do! I'm a professional insurance agent.
It's my job to ensure each and every client
gets the best possible deal from his or her policy.
But I'm not just a client.
I'm also your boyfriend.
So?
So we should get the check here and go see a movie.
I can't. I've got a meeting with a client.
What client? Just cancel.
No way! This Mr. Chan's an extremely busy man.
I've tried to set up this meeting for a long time.
Why isn't he here yet? I'll give him a call.
Mr. Chan? This is Julie.
I'm here already. Where are you?
You're here too?
Mr. Chan!?
