If you came back from the brink of death, would you look at life differently?
Would you drop fame and fortune in order to guide others onto a straight path?
Or would you spite God, and become a worse person than before?
Would the experience change the nature of my heart? Could this be the real me?
You're awake? Don't worry. My name is Dr. Tong, I'm a cardiologist.
Your heart stopped beating at one point. You had a real near-death experience.
Do you remember what you saw?
Say, did you see a bright light? Or a light at the end of a tunnel?
Did you feel your body floating, passing into another dimension?
All I saw
was you flashing your light on me.
I'm sorry.
Mrs. Fong.
- Sweetheart, you're awake? - Honey.
Dr. Yiu, what's this doctor doing here?
I just wanted to see how the patient was doing.
And I was researching patients going through cardiac arrest.
Hey. You're nuts, man.
Take it easy.
Dr. Tong is a funny guy. He loves to joke around.
He's a doctor here. He's making his rounds right now.
I don't want this unprofessional doctor attending to my husband.
Dr. Tong, thank you very much.
No problem.
This is just ridiculous.
Honey... you're angrier than I am.
I'm good.
Mrs. Fong is just worried about you, sir.
You're here too? Hey, there's tons of work to do--
Hold it. How are you feeling, Mr. Fong?
Well...
I'm good.
See? I can walk. I can be discharged now.
- No. - Why not?
Your condition seems to be steady.
But just to be safe, we have to run some tests. Stay for a few more days.
A few more days? I have work to do! And meetings to go to.
Nothing is more important than your health.
Martin and I can take care of things for you.
Mr. Fong, I'll make sure that everything runs smoothly.
Mrs. Fong, please help me take care of a uncooperative patient. Thank you.
Mrs. Fong!
Whatever it is, it can wait.
You're back.
How's Lik?
He sprained his ankle on his bike. It's nothing. But to be on the safe side
the doctor wants to keep him for observation for a few days.
Really? That's a good thing, then.
Power works day and night. His health is getting worse.
It's time to get it fixed, or he might burn himself out.
We started our business from scratch. We would share pairs of underwear.
He's worked so hard all of these years. His health has really spiraled downward.
Maybe it's time for me, his buddy, to share his burden.
You do care about him. But there's nothing worry about.
My husband will be back in a few days.
We both know what's going on here.
I'm holding an emergency meeting with the shareholders in a few days.
I'll ask everyone, if Power... given his condition, should continue to chair us.
Wow... it smells great.
Take a whiff. That's all you're getting.
Perhaps, since Shiu Gat shows up sometimes, and sometimes doesn't...
Sometimes Shiu Gat shows up...
Okay. I won't get a chance to eat it.
You always have your nose in detective novels.
You're a doctor! If you have free time, read dissertations about medicine.
Don't waste it.
I do read those. I'm warning you, don't criticize my hobbies.
Doing what relaxes me in my spare time helps me let off steam.
You know how stressful hospital life is.
Lots of doctors' hobbies are millions of times more meaningless than mine.
We're not all workaholics, like you.
I am not.
Yeah, you're right. Your girlfriend is way worse of a workaholic.
Thank you for your concern.
Care more about your girlfriend. She got sick and lost weight because of her job.
The government isn't going to thank her. Tell her to get some rest.
Buy her some fancy clothes. She wears the same colors all the time.
Look at who's talking about style and clothes...
What's wrong with my style?
Nothing.
Do you get what I'm saying? Just get her some colorful clothes from time to time--
Okay, okay, got it, got it. Just change and get out.
- My book. - Hurry, hurry, come on.
You're here.
Come, come, come.
You got everything ready so fast.
You bet. We hardly ever sit down for dinner. I want to take advantage.
I'm sorry about the other night. Duty called.
That's okay. Come on, let's eat.
It smells good.
I have to take this call.
Hello?
Okay...
Yeah. I'll be right there.
What is it, something at the hospital?
Yeah.
Work comes first.
That's it... Be good and finish it all up for me.
Where are you off to?
The hospital.
Eason, you're going out?
Yeah. I have to eat out every time you come over for dinner. I have to go.
Don't go. Let's eat together.
- Cool. - Hey, hey, hey.
He's a pest though?
You can put the steak in the fridge and wait for me to come home.
You're not going to do that, right?
Dr. Yiu, go get changed.
Lots of patients are waiting for you. Human anatomy tonight. Tough luck.
Hello, Shiu Gat.
Well, do you like steak?
I do. Sorry for this. You're a guest, but now you have to play host.
I'm very interested in criminal investigation.
I'd like to know your views on cracking cases.
The patient refuses to medicate. He won't even let me take his blood pressure.
He barked at us and ordered us to get out.
I'll handle this.
Mr. Fong, what can I do for you?
Is that report out yet?
I told you that it would take a few days.
I can't wait anymore! Even if I die, I'm not going to die here!
Just call me when the report is out. I want to get out of here...
You want to close the file that badly?
Our hospital won't be held accountable for what happens next if you leave now.
You can't scare me!
You know the last report. Your ejection fraction is only at 35 percent.
You have a severe edema in your legs. You can only sleep with piled pillows.
You heart is getting weak. You can go into cardiac arrest at any time.
As a doctor, I have to go by the code of medical ethics.
If a patient doesn't care about his well-being and or his health
but wants to give up on himself, I'll respect that.
My question to you is, how much do you value your own life?
So, what's your decision?
I'm just saying all of this to see if you're a true professional.
I'll respect you. I'll leave after I get my report.
Happy now? Let's see how you're going to cure me.
Thank you.
Next time, before you throw a fit, have a piece of chocolate.
It'll help you relax.
Low sugar, it's good for you.
- Get him some new medication. - Yes, Dr. Yiu.
Here! You can have it. I hate chocolate.
That's okay, thanks, Mr. Fong.
Get someone here to clean up.
Please wait a moment.
What a mess, here.
Egg tarts! Chiu Sir's treat. Madam, have an egg tart.
Not now, thank you.
They're vicious. Those guys look so mean.
They hang outside my cake shop every day. They're scaring away my customers.
Every couple of days, they cut off my water and electricity supply.
They're obviously trying to force me to move.
Have they threatened you in any way? Any threatening letters?
Have they told you to watch out, or something like that?
No, they haven't.
We can't do anything then.
If they keep doing this, even if I don't move, I'll have to close down my place.
There's nothing we can do. They haven't blackmailed you or damaged your property.
We can't charge them. We can only put this on record.
Thank you, Sir.
Master Kau.
It got to me that the mastermind behind the property acquisition is Fong Chi Lik.
He really knows how to get through legal loopholes. He has money to burn.
He makes sure not to get into trouble in his deals, especially the dirty ones.
There's no way you can take him on. Right, Madam?
- You brought these egg tarts, right? - Yeah.
- Are you done? - I am.
- You're not on this team, right? - No, I'm definitely not.
Sorry, sorry, sorry. Sorry for intruding.
- Oh, no. - What is it?
I told them to skip the sugar... and they did it.
Madam, have an egg tart It'll make your heart happy.
Why are you here?
I knew you'd be here. I was worried about you.
It's cold out here. You don't even have an coat on.
You want to help these people?
We took those kids in for questioning.
They said they didn't know anything about the property acquisition.
They were in bad moods so they got drunk and messed around. Can you believe that?
Nailing these kids isn't going to help.
It's hard enough to catch the middleman, let alone the bosses who give the orders.
Feeling down and defeated? That's not like you.
I'm not. I just think that it's unfair to them.
As cops, we just want to help civilians.
People keep saying we abuse our power, but this, we can't do anything about.
Ironic, isn't it?
Why aren't you saying anything?
A few empty words of comfort or fellow complaints won't do anything for you.
My best bet is to lend you an ear so that you can air it all out.
What are you doing?
Just wait, just wait...
Oh. Here.
What is this?
Gat on the bike.
I'm sending it to you. Don't say you don't want it.
Okay.
It's just plain ugly. Couldn't you have made it prettier?
I think it's pretty and cute.
You can't draw better than that?
No one's perfect. Everyone has faults.
All that counts is that we try our best. Why push yourself so hard?
If you want me to draw a prettier you, relax and smile more.
I'm smiling now. Give it a try, see if you can draw a better sketch.
I don't see a difference.
There's no bike here.
I forgot to draw a mouth.
Can't you make me prettier?
Smile more and you'll be prettier!
You would have kept me in the dark if I didn't ask you to come here, right?
Whatever KY told you to hold off, just ignore it.
The decisions I made prior to my admission here, still stand today!
Will do.
I understand. Mrs. Fong is worried that I could have another heart attack
after I hear about this thing with KY.
We have to handle this, or it could affect team morale.
I understand, Mr. Fong.
Martin.
How is the Sleepless City acquisition coming along?
I suspect Acquisitor Woon is eating up our profits. Give me time, I'll find out.
I've made it clear to him.
What's he trying to pull?
Get him here to talk to me! Get him here to talk to me right now!
He's just going to make up all these excuses, sir.
Give me a little more time, I'll get to the bottom of this.
How? Gentlemen!
If you're dealing with thugs, use thug methods!
If we had to get proof every single time, then I wouldn't be here today!
- Rest up, Mr. Fong. - Take it easy, Sir.
Sweetheart?
What is it?
What a bunch of idiots. They can't handle one small thing.
You should actually be resting here. Why did you call for a meeting?
Didn't I tell you guys that Mr. Fong needed a break?
This is a hospital, not an office. Nurse, please show them out.
All of you, please follow me.
- Goodbye, Mr. Fong, Mrs. Fong. - Goodbye, Mrs. Fong.
Get some rest, Mr. Fong.
Why didn't you take your medicine?
I didn't feel like it.
You have to take it. Come on.
I'm busy, just go.
Sweetheart...
Just leave. I have to think.
Okay. I'll sit right here and wait until you take your medication.
What's the use? Look at me. I gasp when I talk. I'm all out of power.
Stop talking like that.
Your husband's ailment is very difficult to treat.
I'm confident a kid like me can cure him, but Brother Power has already given up.
You've got guts, kid. Teaching me a lesson--
Take it.
Here.
Mrs. Fong. You're the only one who has my permission to hold meetings here.
Please tell your men not to hang around in the hallway.
They could inconvenience others.
I will.
Thanks.
I need someone to stay with me! What a pain, these public hospitals...
I'm here with you, isn't that good enough?
I'll spend more time with you when I get home.
You're loyal to Mr. Fong, but sometimes you have to weigh things properly.
I'm sorry, I should have listened to you
and not told Mr. Fong about what's going on at the company.
But he called us up himself, so--
It's not your fault. Ben and those guys started it.
You might hold a higher position than them
but you can't zip up the mouths of the department heads.
Sorry, Mrs. Fong.
I'm not picking on you.
Of all of our top guys, you have our trust and support the most.
Just remember. You have to show those who defy you how to get along with you.
I'll take note of that. I'll remember your words.
If Mr. Fong wants anything, let me know first.
I don't want some random person to get him all worked up.
Got it.
Great. From now on, I can give you free reign over things.
Take a look. Done. So pretty.
It's your turn.
Tsat! It's picture time! Smile!
Smile and you'll look prettier!
Come on, Chun! It's your turn!
- Coming! - Hello!
- Come have some fruit.
Great Aunt!
You guys are here.
Let's put the wives' cakes together.
- Thank you. - Enjoy.
I will.
Yan, have some.
- No, thanks. Want a drink? - Thanks.
Not your taste? I'll get something that you like next time.
Okay. I want Chinese bridal cakes.
Okay. Get them yourself.
Hey...
I want your bridal cakes.
Don't be cheesy.
Somebody's great aunt wants them too. She really wants to see you get married.
Every time I come here to volunteer, she tells me to talk to you guys.
You're not getting any younger.
Don't be picky. Just be glad that someone wants to marry you.
You're not thinking of moving in together? Not a good deal for you?
Just get married.
Are you through? Have some cake.
- No. - Come on.
Have a little orange.
Sweet, right?
Very sweet, wow.
You bet. Shiu Gat picked them.
You like it? I'll bring you some more next time.
You got juice all over your hands. Go wash them.
You're right.
I'll cut it up for you.
- Let's just talk. - Okay.
Yat's been busy? Has he been spending time with you?
If not, I'll give him a good scolding.
He spends as much time as he can with me. Don't worry.
Every cook praises their own broth. He'll make a good husband.
When are you getting married? I want to be at your wedding.
I'm getting older. I won't be around for much longer. Soon, I'll be a goner.
Don't say things like that. Have some more orange.
When you finish your orange, we're going to take a picture.
Oh, that's great. Wait for me here.
After I have my gorgeous picture taken, we can have dinner together. Okay?
Okay.
Are you busy? We can have dinner some other time.
No, no. We have nothing to do. Go take a picture, hurry.
Careful...
Make sure it's a pretty shot, okay?
No movies again.
There's always next time.
Your phone?
It's yours, Madam Shiu Gat.
Thanks.
Hello.
Wait. I'll be right there.
I'm sorry. It's urgent. Stay and have dinner with her, okay?
Bye, bye.
Who are you looking for, Ma'am?
Police. Open up.
Madam, what is it?
Where's the client?
Police.
Get up.
Madam, is it against the law to solicit a prostitute?
What's the deal here?
Is this look you're getting good enough? Do you want some more time?
Stop joking around. It's not funny.
You're nuts! Your mother was a hooker, right?
Oh...
I forgot to tell you. Put your pants on.
Mom.
I will catch the killer one day.
Still at the office? Don't work too hard. Take a break whenever you can.
[I'm at the hospital. See you at the pavilion in thirty.]
Me coming here at this hour... I hope I'm not bothering you.
Not at all. Come sit down.
What's going on?
I need to talk to you.
I never told you about my mom's death.
I want to clear this up for you.
I was five when my mom passed away.
Go play downstairs. I'll buy you some ice cream when I'm done.
Be good... please, okay? Go downstairs and play. Come on.
What is it, little girl?
Mommy!
Don't go in there...
Mommy...
Don't cry, little girl.
Mommy...
Sorry. I didn't know that your past involved something like that.
One of the reasons I became a cop was to catch my mother's killer.
I can't rest until I crack the case and find my mother's killer.
There's no way I can settle down and have kids with you until then.
I hope you'll understand.
I do. Don't worry. I'll wait, no matter how long it takes.
Today
we are holding an emergency shareholders' meeting
because our chairman, Power, is sick.
We don't know how long he's going to be in hospital. We should elect a new chair.
Let me make this clear.
As you all know, Mr. Fong sprained his ankle during the cycling competition.
He's undergoing full routine body checks. That's why he's still at the hospital.
If everything is so great for him, why is this body check taking so long?
That's because he's been overworked. The doctor said he should be resting.
Besides, the company is doing well. I don't see a need to elect a new chair.
That's just your opinion! Let's see if other shareholders think the same way.
Raise your hand if you agree to selecting a new chair.
Isn't it obvious?
You're something else.
Power and I used to share a pair of underwear!
We built this business from scratch.
So now what? Every year, he's chairman. He always gets his way! It's not fair!
Whoever gets the say, works the hardest. Mr. Fong is doing this for your own good.
Don't you get it?
You--
I know.
I'm something else. Right?
I'll watch out.
I want you to see something.
What is it that you want?
Relax. I know your wife well. I don't want to see your family break up.
I heard your side of the business hasn't been going so well.
Why didn't you talk to Mr. Fong? He can help you.
You're brilliant, Mrs. Fong. I don't think KY can do anything for now.
We still have to deal with the property acquisition.
I'm setting up a meeting with him.
Let's go see Mr. Fong.
I asked you here... to meet me for tea. Why bring an entourage with you?
It's better to be prepared.
Do you have something to hide?
I hate it when people try to fool me.
My boys need to make a living.
Some of them got cuffed the other day. Raising our service charge is fair!
How much do you want?
Just ten percent?
One hundred percent!
Acquisitor Woon!
You do not scare me. I am not afraid of you!
Let's see if you're worth this one hundred percent service charge!
Am I worth it?
- Police! Freeze! Put down the knife! - Shut up! Stand aside!
Who called the police?
I did, Madam. These guys are really scaring me.
They might even have weapons on them.
Search them.
I don't need you to tell me what to do.
Move it.
- Madam, there's something here. - Take them down to the station.
You watch out!
- Go. Hands on shoulders in front of you. - Move it.
- Freaked me out, Madam. - Keep moving. One after another.
- Come back in a while. - Yes, Mr. Fong.
Hey, Honey!
Don't be mad.
I'm not mad, I'm just worried.
You turned off your cell phone! I thought something happened to you.
I got bored in bed all day. I wanted fresh air. It's no big deal.
Stop it. I found out that you wanted to settle the score with Acquisitor Woon.
No, I was just yelling at him.
Don't worry, he's not going to do anything stupid again.
You're gasping again.
By now, I'm so used to it that I just love gasping.
Stop this nonsense. Go and sit down, quick.
You have something to tell me?
Can I hide anything from you?
I know you helped me fix KY.
I've never liked him.
Me neither!
He keeps saying that you guys shared a pair of underwear.
Not that again!
Relax! We won't talk about your underpants anymore. Relax, relax.
Sit down.
I hate it when people talk about it.
Let's not, then.
What kind of soup is this?
Catch your breath first.
Brother Chubby! Buy me a drink, will you?
Hello!
Long time, no see!
Hello, hello...
Lucky girl!
KY! Long time, no see!
KY! Don't I look cute today?
What are you up to this time? I didn't choose you.
You and Ben were picking the chicks just now.
You said, her, her, and her. You meant me, didn't you?
How do you like my elevator girl look? Don't you think I'm cute?
Enough already! You do this all the time!
You come in here, you drink my wine and you eat my food. Get out!
- Get out. - Yeah, get out of here...
KY, come on...
I'll dance...
for you...
Like it?
Great, great, great... Good girl.
Here's your drink.
Go stand in the corner. Okay?
Good boy!
Hey. When's the last time you took a shower?
I was locked up for two days, plus the day before that. Three days.
Back up, back up.
Next time, take a bath before you come talk to me.
I couldn't wait! Mr. Fong, you're so kind to me.
I walked over because you got hit with memory loss at the station, suddenly.
So I came to see you as quickly as I could.
I set you up, you're not mad at me?
No, no!
Mr. Fong, Inspector Yuen Shiu Gat is here to see you.
Madam, what a pleasant surprise.
I thought maybe Lau Bo Woon would come to see you once he got released.
Sure enough, I was right.
Madam, doesn't it stink in here?
Sorry about that.
I heard you were having memory problems. I dropped by to see how you were doing.
I don't want you to be charged with wasting police resources.
Charge me, then.
People know I have a heart disease.
Now it's suddenly affecting my brain. I don't think it's that surprising.
I have a doctor's note here. Do you want to see it?
That's okay. Let's see how long your happy days last.
If you have no other business here, please let us carry on with our meeting.
Fine. I'll see you at the station.
Mr. Fong... just ignore her.
Mr. Fong...
KY?
Mr. Fong, I better go take a shower.
Not just yet. I need to borrow some things from you.
- What did you say? - Keep drinking.
KY.
- Mr. Fong! - Mr. Fong!
Mr. Fong.
Power, interesting to see you here. Sit down.
So you were playing your little tricks while I was away.
If you're unhappy, put your cards on the table. Why blame a woman?
- Excuse us, Mr. Fong. - Excuse us, Mr. Fong.
Sit down.
I wouldn't dare bully your wife.
Actually, she one-upped me.
I've been taken advantage of. You're putting the blame on me?
- Yeah. - We still have a score to settle.
We built this business from scratch. We shared a single pair of boxers.
- Get it ready! - What the hell?
I'm warning you. Don't ever talk about us sharing a pair of underwear again.
I got you a pair of boxers. Wear them yourself!
Say that ever again, and I'll make you swallow them!
You better watch yourself.
Moron!
Mr. Fong... you're so manly.
Mr. Fong, are you all right?
I'm fine... just a little too high off of that.
Mr. Fong, I'm Ka Ka!
Mr. Fong, your report is ready.
Your heart muscle is dying.
A heart transplant is your only option.
Is that some kind of a cruel joke? I haven't felt any pain in my heart.
A person suffering from chronic heart disease
feels no pain when his heart failure is in its final stages.
The cardiac muscle is dying, so the patient doesn't feel any pain.
Is a heart transplant risky?
There are risks involved.
But with today's technology, success rates are very high.
All we need is to wait for a suitable heart donor.
But Mr. Fong is a blood type O. It's a difficult donor to find.
I knew all along that you were a quack! Get out!
- Call me if you need anything. - Thank you.
I'm good. It's just a heart transplant! It's no big deal.
I'm sure that I can make it through!
We never get to watch movies together.
I picked up a few DVDs that you said you wanted to watch.
How about tonight?
I'm sorry, not tonight.
What's wrong? Tired from work?
A little. It's late. I want to go home. I have to be in early tomorrow.
I'll take you.
I'm good. I'll call you when I get home.
- Drive carefully. - Bye.
- You guys get into a fight? - Nope.
Don't lie to me. I'm observant.
If you applied your curiosity to your medical studies, you'd be a big success.
- Thank you. Another lover? - No.
You guys have only dated for a year. Your love is fading already?
Stop making wild guesses.
Then tell me.
You know that I asked her to marry me.
She turned me down because...
something happened to her family when she was a kid.
- She has this issue-- - Childhood trauma?
Her dad dumped her mom and married a wicked stepmother that abused her--
Have you ever heard her mention a father? How could she have a stepmother?
I remembered it wrong. The orphanage.
She was raised in an orphanage. She was bullied there. That's childhood trauma.
Stop rattling off nonsense. This is her personal life. I can't say anymore.
Just go do the dishes. I want to think through it quietly.
That's no way to treat your classmate. I'm just worried about a friend.
You know what you should do, but you're not doing anything.
That's not showing respect. That's just avoiding the situation.
Hey, you're here.
- I got you a latte. - Thanks.
I'm meeting one of the university professors. He's on his way.
You're meeting a friend? Am I going to be in the way?
Actually, I want you to meet him.
You want me to meet a professor?
You can have another friend to talk to.
Besides being a professor, he's also a reputable psychologist.
You want me to meet with a psychologist? Do you think I'm sick?
No, I just thought you could talk to him. He could see what's been bothering you.
If you think he might be able to help you, you can make an appointment.
This is too much. I trusted you, so I told you about it.
You think I'm sick? You're running your mouth about what I told you to others?
I'm just trying to help ease your burden.
I don't need your help. I'm not sick.
What happened to your mom was a big blow to you.
Lots of people suffer from childhood trauma.
Through therapy, they can relieve their burdens. If they can do it, so can you.
I'm not like them. I'm not sick. I don't need therapy.
Don't run around talking about what I told you.
It's like having another friend to talk to!
Don't you get it?
What's really disappointing, is that you don't understand me either.
