When a person feels so desperate that they feel like they've hit rock bottom
what goes on in their mind?
Will they be hopeful, or hopeless?
I would say, if a dead person has the power to make someone else live
we have to believe in the idea that there is no such thing as despair.
Mr. Fong. Oh, my. Thank goodness you're here.
This guy owes us money.
Uncle, you should butt out.
Uncle?
Do you know who I am?
I don't know you from Mickey Mouse.
- What are you trying to do? - Take it easy. Take it easy.
What do you want to do?
Take it easy.
Mr. Fong, should I take you to get checked at the hospital?
I'm fine.
Hey.
Why are they after you?
I borrowed money from them.
I'm only a few days late.
But they won't let up on me.
Who do they work for?
Easy Do Finance!
Mr. Fong, that's one of your companies.
Your company, Mr. Fong?
Read this.
If it's really your company, this is an easy fix.
You didn't recognize your own boss
and you called him "Uncle"?
All of you should be fired.
Mr. Fong, I know. These days, debt collection gets outsourced.
I'm not surprised they don't know you.
You've said enough.
I'm sorry, Mr. Fong.
We met at my brother's funeral.
I know that you're a man of integrity, a righteous man.
Don't think that I borrowed that money to gamble. No way.
I borrowed that money to pay for my brother's funeral.
Since he was your doctor, do you think you could do me this favor?
I'm not saying that I won't pay you!
I just need a grace period
so that I have some more time to get my funds back in order.
I run a business to make money, and I play by the rules.
I'll give you a few more days.
Thank you, Mr. Fong, thank you! Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
Standing there like a log... Apologize! You're out of a job.
Goodbye, Mr. Fong. Goodbye, Mr. Fong! Bye, bye, bye!
Those thugs of yours didn't even recognize me!
I could never show my face again if word got out that they were shoving me around.
I'm sorry, Mr. Fong.
They must have been new hires from the collection agency. I'll have them fired.
Say that again.
The whole sentence?
This is why I say that you're paralyzed in the brain.
Can you guarantee me that your new guys will recognize me?
From now on, anyone who works for me, must carry a picture of me.
Tell them who the boss is, understand?
Yes, I understand. I'll get on it right away.
Did you look into what I asked you about?
Yes.
His name is Yiu Yuet Shan.
He posed as his dead brother
and borrowed $100,000 from us.
Using a false identity is a felony.
We can have him arrested.
No, let's dig deeper into his background.
- I want to know who he is. - Got it.
Hey.
Was my brother
Fong Chi Lik's attending physician?
Yes.
Were they close?
Close? As close as a doctor and a patient can be with one another.
I mean, how close?
Just the courteous nod hello, or did they hang out together?
Hey. Why do you want to know?
My X-ray eyes tell me that you're up to no good.
Don't mooch off of the rich guy in your brother's name.
That's crazy. I'm a whiz.
That's not how I think.
I haven't seen my brother for so long.
I just want to know more about his life.
You mean that?
The noodle are good, right?
They're really chewy.
How about, from now on, let me do the cooking?
Stop eating so much MSG off the streets.
Let me get $10,000 for groceries.
Why? Do you need to feast on a daily basis?
Don't be so stingy. Consider it a loan.
What about the money from the funeral?
I spent it all.
Spent it all? Spent it on what?
Wait... you went to Macau.
You gambled it all away?
Don't tell me that you lost it all.
Come on, it's urgent.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
How about $9,500?
No!
- Lucky number, $8,800? - No, no. I only have $1,000.
I'll take it!
How can you do this to your brother?
Come on, please, please, please?
Thank you, thank you.
This can't be happening.
What?
Where's my phone?
You left it in the bathroom.
If I lose this one, it'll be the third one this month.
You should get your IQ checked.
You let her con you, again and again. And you couldn't do anything about it.
She didn't con me. She robbed me! And she slapped me too.
Call the police.
I know, she caught you looking under her skirt.
That's why you didn't say anything.
That's crazy! She's Shiu Gat's friend.
I didn't want to put Shiu Gat on the spot.
Tell her!
I have no proof. I'm mad, just talking about her.
It's too bad you go to prison for murder. I'd help rid society of another scrounge.
I'll do it for you.
You want your phone back?
Of course I do.
Hey. I'll get it back for you, if you loan me $10,000.
You're sure you can get it back?
Of course I'm sure.
[Ivy League Seniors Home]
- What is it? - What's wrong, Great Aunt?
My back hurts.
I'll take you to a doctor.
No, my arthritis is just acting up.
An oil massage should do the trick.
That's because you spend all day sitting down.
If you want your arthritis to get better, you have to exercise.
Then, your back won't hurt.
The nurses have taught us morning exercises
but they're very boring.
Why don't I teach you something new?
Come on, get up.
I'll get up.
- Be careful getting up. - I am. I'm getting up.
And stand still here...
Okay, let's start.
Turn your head...
And move your arms like this...
And move your hips from side to side!
Be careful. Don't hurt Great Aunt.
Shiu Gat is too nosy. Let's make her do the demonstration.
Watch this.
Turn the head...
Great Aunt, what's wrong?
What is it?
I'm just happy. You're both so filial.
Why get all teary about it, silly?
Hey. Let's give her a big kiss.
Smile, come on.
Think about what you want to eat.
I'm going to use the ladies room. Tell me what you think when I'm back.
Relax for a bit.
[Ha Sze Ka]
Hello?
Hi, Macy. Do you remember me?
This is Fred from the Lonely Hearts Club.
We spoke and promised to meet again if I was ever in Hong Kong.
I'm in from Australia for the week.
Can we meet up for lunch one of these days?
What?
Give me a chance. We could really hit it off.
I'd love to try to make it work.
A sitting duck from Australia.
Hello, Fred. I'm sorry, I forgot.
I'm actually Macy's friend, Ka Ka.
She flew to the U.S. this morning to go visit some relatives.
But she told me before she left, to take care of you if you called.
Oh, what a shame.
I came all the way here, only to miss her.
Since we have this affinity
why don't we meet for lunch anyway?
We can be friends.
Can we meet tomorrow at noon, at Yue Loy Heen?
Yue Loy Heen? Great, great, great.
I'll see you tomorrow.
- Okay. - Bye, bye. Bye...
Wow, he even has the looks to go along with the money.
It's like I won the lottery!
You must be Ka Ka.
Hello, I'm Fred.
- Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you. Have a seat.
I'm sorry, I was tied up at an auction. I'm sorry for keeping you waiting.
It's okay, you're not really late.
Shall we order?
What would you like?
Thanks.
Let me see...
Braised shark's fin soup... sea cucumber with shrimp roe...
- You have abalone? - Yes, we do.
- Give us two. - Sure.
And... just pick a fish for us.
Great. Thank you so much.
Hold on, hold on.
Thank you.
- Is that all right? - Oh, oh... okay, okay.
After I finished my MBA in Switzerland
I started helping my Dad with the family business.
Now, my Dad lets me run it on my own.
Oh, my. Enough about me. How about you?
My family owns a dried seafood shop.
We cover Southeast Asia and South Africa.
After I graduated from Oxford in the U.S.
I had different ideas.
I wanted to do something that carried more passion with it.
So I started a beauty company. We sell high-end beauty products.
We have a commercial about a mask
that can make your face silky and white in just three days.
Have you seen it?
Oh, no, I'm usually out of town. I don't normally watch TV.
It surprises me that you like to run a business.
I used to always wonder if my future wife would like to run a business.
Wouldn't it be great if we ran a business together?
In addition to the beauty industry
I'm also interested in restaurants.
Maybe we can get into that one day.
Sure.
You're so pretty and affluent. I know my Mom will love you.
I'll have to introduce you soon.
Sure.
Let's take a picture so that I can send it to her.
Oh, no. I forgot, my phone died.
Oh, okay.
Use mine.
Sure. Send me a copy later.
Okay...
Okay, thanks.
You're welcome.
Even though I don't get to see Macy, meeting you is such a nice surprise.
I have a feeling that we'll get along seamlessly.
I think so too.
Let's have a drink at my friend's club.
I can introduce you to my friends.
Sure.
Can I use your phone again to book a table?
Of course.
Thank you.
Hello? Mr. Fong?
Yes, It's Fred.
Yes, I just got back yesterday.
The shop?
Give me one second, I'll be right back.
I did look. I saw it, yes. It's okay, it's okay.
The contract?
It will be all set, once we sign the contract.
Eat your heart out, moron...
Honey, do you like this card?
It's okay. What's it for?
It's for the donor's family.
Scribble in a few words.
Why? Aren't our identities supposed to be a secret?
As long as we don't write our names.
They did save your life, after all.
You should at least thank them.
They'll be happy when they get the card.
Give me.
I'm sorry.
Oh, Mr. and Mrs. Fong?
I'm sorry. I bent the corner.
It's okay.
We'll talk next time.
I can't eat anymore.
What's taking him so long?
Oh, hey, I'm glad you're here.
The guy who was having lunch with me
is he still outside on the phone?
He left a long time ago.
Left? No way. But he... he took my phone.
I'm sorry, Miss. This room has been reserved.
Can you please settle the bill?
How much is it?
$38,450.
All that money for this?
I've been had.
Ha Sze Ka, you're so stupid.
He even took off with my phone...
What a scumbag!
$38,000?
Am I out of luck, or what?
I'm already broke.
How could I run into such a creep?
I must have offended the higher powers.
I need someone to bless me.
Hey. How could you have such an expensive lunch?
I didn't mean to.
I thought that I would be nice
and play host to a friend from overseas.
It turned out, the creep was actually a con man.
He pretended to be such a big spender.
He made up some lame excuse and took off with my phone!
How can someone be that cheap?
If he stole your phone, do you want to call the police?
No, I don't want the hassle.
Besides, the cops are busy. They don't have time for petty theft.
What? You think it's too messy in here?
Sit down, don't just stand there! Just push them aside.
This place is tiny, but it's cheap.
Sorry.
Have you been living here for long?
I only stay places a few months at a time, so I don't bother tidying up.
Either you run from your creditors
or you get evicted because you run behind on rent.
Do you have to lay it on me right now?
I'm worried about you.
My money comes and goes.
But at least I still have a home, right?
Stop buying shoes and handbags, and you'll have money.
No, you're wrong. I'm under so much pressure
shopping helps me keep my mental balance.
Have you ever thought about getting a real job?
Don't be stupid. You think that someone forced me to do this?
I've seen girls who wanted a job like this.
But you're my friend.
You'll grow old and have wrinkles.
Do you want to get cheap and then--
Say no more. Let's eat.
Well? How have you been?
I'm fine.
You're fine?
I deal with my customers often enough, that I know
that look on your face tells me that something is wrong.
I'm okay.
Okay?
Is it your boyfriend? Did he dump you?
He's dead?
Sorry. Was I right?
I'm sorry. Oh, my, I didn't mean it. I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
It was an accident. I'm okay.
You're sure you're okay?
Here's the evidence.
I got your phone back.
That's amazing, how did you do it?
Never mind that, pay up. Give me the $10,000.
- It's really her. - Hurry up.
- Hurry up! - All right.
Hurry up! Pay up!
- Cough it up! - Here's $10,000.
Hurry!
Wait.
If you don't pay me back...
the phone is only worth $6,000.
I'll be losing money.
We're bosom buddies.
I won't run out on you.
Thank you!
If you knew how I toyed with her, you'd give me another $10,000.
What did you do?
Simple. Lunch at Yue Loy Heen.
I ran up a $38,000 bill.
I took off and stuck her with the bill.
If she couldn't pay for it, she could have gone to jail.
That woman's skin is thicker than the walls between our bedrooms.
She probably found a sugar daddy to pick up the bill
and ordered bird's nest for dessert.
Enough of your questions.
Mr Fong, Martin.
Mr. Fong.
How was your honeymoon?
Fei was thrilled. She's never been to Europe.
I haven't had a vacation that long since I joined Lik Chi Ko.
I'm fully recharged too.
Good. Work hard, play hard.
Mr. Fong, I bought you something.
Really? What?
This is a crystal glass set from a famous Italian manufacturer.
They're exquisite.
Only fifty sets exist, all used by royal families.
They're nice, thank you.
You're welcome. I'll put them on your desk.
I'm sorry that I missed your wedding day.
It's okay. I know you're busy, Mr. Fong.
Hey. Has KY signed the papers?
Not yet. He hasn't been around.
I heard he was on vacation.
He's pissed because I made him eat the underwear.
- He's doing this on purpose. - Why don't I give him a call?
Don't bother. He won't take your calls.
Looks like I'll have to do it myself.
Honey. I know you're a much better player
but try not to humiliate him. Be nice, play nice.
We're here to break the ice. Right?
I hate people who throw games.
But I have no choice this time, for Lik Chi Ko's sake.
Here he comes.
Martin, keep an eye on Mr. Fong.
I will, Mrs. Fong.
Hey, KY! You look quite fit!
Have you been globetrotting?
I'm so loaded!
I should enjoy life now
and not wait until I can't walk.
Not live like someone who works like a slave.
You almost died. You should know better.
That's why I gave him strict orders.
He must spend less time working hard
and spend more time with me.
Defending him again?
To put it politely, you're the loving wife.
To say it bluntly though, it's sickening.
I don't know what else you can do for your husband.
They say that people with heart conditions can't perform well.
Your husband has been sick for so long.
I really feel sorry for you...
Take care of that borrowed heart.
Don't overexert yourself.
I'm destined to work hard!
I'm heading back to work!
You better sign those papers soon.
Or you're not getting any cut of the profits!
Everything you have
you owe to me!
Without my money, there is no Lik Chi Ko!
You'd be sleeping on the streets!
If you're going to humiliate yourself, you have to earn your respect first.
I have more than paid you back!
What have you done for the company, all of these years?
Moron, you're screwed without me!
What did you say?
I'm talking about you, moron.
- What? - What?
Being a brilliant businessman means nothing when you're an ingrate.
Life is fair, that's why he's sick.
So what if he owns the company?
He's sick, and he has no kids. I bet he's impotent.
That's his retribution.
Who wants a husband like that?
I held the plunger like I was fencing, and then I stuck it in her face.
She had nowhere to go. She wore that thing like an oxygen mask!
She probably can't breathe.
You bet.
Then what happened?
She tried to run.
I flung her against the wall
with the plunger still stuck to her face.
Then I slipped
and we both fell onto the floor.
That old hag flew off of the plunger
and I stuffed her face with a roll of toilet paper.
That's brilliant.
The husband was swallowing underwear and the wife was eating toilet paper.
No wonder they're a pair.
Honey... I can't believe that you have it in you to be that vicious.
It serves her right for saying that you're impotent.
No wonder KY signed the papers and skipped town.
Now we can finally have some peace.
Honey... let's celebrate.
I'll go get the red wine but you must drink in moderation.
It's too late for wine.
What do you want to drink?
I want those who badmouthed me to swallow their pride.
That's a sick gag!
- Get me a buttered bun. - Sure.
I found you a few jobs.
The waitress job doesn't pay much
but it has good prospective.
Forget it. You know me...
I always break things.
I'll end up paying for what I break with my salary.
This sales position is perfect for you. You have such a glib tongue.
No thanks, I have flat feet.
I can't stand up for that long.
How about this office job? It doesn't require many qualifications.
Sitting in an office for more than ten hours a day. I'll turn moldy.
You know why I couldn't finish school?
Because I hate to write.
I swore that I would never get an office job!
Ha Sze Ka!
Shiu Gat... I know that you want what's good for me
but I know what I'm worth.
I can barely read
and I like to spend money.
At least, Night Shadow pays good money
with nice benefits, including food and drinks.
Where else can you find a job like that?
I don't want you in that business.
The longer you stay in the business, the harder it will be to get out of it.
I've seen lots of girls in this business. None have ended well.
A smart girl like me won't do drugs or get involved with guys!
I may grow in mud, but I'm pure and untainted.
Don't worry about me, silly.
Before I forget...
This is for picking up the bill for me.
What's this? You're not paying me back?
It's not that. You look pale without makeup.
Lady cops can't wear makeup?
Look, what's done is done.
When something is gone, let it be.
Pick yourself up and start over, while you're still young.
You're a pretty girl and you have a nice complexion.
Wear some makeup to attract guys.
I promise you that even the bad guys will throw themselves at your feet!
I don't want this. You can have it back.
Why not? Keep it!
I bought this specifically for you
from a friend with a discount, plus commission for me.
No, thanks.
- Take them. - What time is it?
It's late.
I can't believe we ran into that stupid woman.
If Shiu Gat found out that we teamed up on Ha Sze Ka
she'd probably stop being friends with me.
Let's go somewhere else.
Yeah.
Hey. Let go of me.
Sorry.
Let's go in.
Hey. I better not.
Why?
I want to check on her, to find out what she's up to.
You're the victim!
You have Stockholm Syndrome?
I just want to take a look.
Make sure you bring an extra phone.
Go find something to eat.
Wow, what a waste! This is brand new.
This is pure silk!
This looks familiar.
These are my shoes and clothes.
What are you doing, landlady?
Landlady! What are you doing?
You're six months behind on rent!
My husband doesn't care, but I want you to leave!
Maybe I'm behind on my rent
but you have no right to throw my stuff into the street!
Okay!I can take everything inside if you pay me right now.
I'll pay you tomorrow!
You say that every time!
Only an idiot would believe you!
Landlady! Landlady!
You own an apartment? So what?
You'll be sorry...
I was just passing by. Are you all right?
What do you think?
Get out of my way, let me gather my things.
We have a mutual friend, I think she'll take you in.
I think it's worth giving it a try.
You're such a nice guy.
- Eason. - Hello, Shiu Gat.
What's going on?
I ran into her on the street.
Her landlord threw her out.
I'm trying to find her a place to stay
and I thought of you right away.
Can you... take her in--
Shiu Gat...
The landlady didn't give me any notice. She's heartless.
I really have nowhere to go... You'll take me in, right?
What?
Shiu Gat and I have known each other since we were little kids.
She's going through a time filled with heartbreak.
It's better for you to have company. Right, Shiu Gat?
I'm used to living alone.
A person's habits can change, right?
I really want to be with you in your time of need...
I think that she'll only stay a few days.
Whatever...
All right, all right, all right.
Stop standing there.
Go bring my stuff inside.
Do you have anything to eat? I'm hungry.
I'm so excited! Let's see what you have...
No, I just have water and Cup Of Noodles.
Be careful.
Whatever. Here, sit down, wipe your sweat.
What are you doing?
Hey, hey, hey.
It's him! It's him!
What about him?
I'll never forget his face.
He's the creep who stole my phone and conned me out of $38,000!
What?
[Ivy League Seniors Home]
Great Aunt. s
I brought you some oranges.
You too?
Let me know when you're coming.
Great Aunt is too smart.
You're going to blow our cover.
What is it? You're not feeling well? I'll take you to a doctor.
What for? I'm a doctor.
Tell me what's wrong, Great Aunt.
I'm glad to see you being so filial.
Stop lying to me.
Yuet, were you planning on lying to me until I died?
That's not how Yat cuts an orange.
I'll cut up an orange for you.
You got your hands all wet.
I found it odd, so I called the hospital.
They told me everything.
I'm sorry, Great Aunt.
I know you didn't want me to be sad.
But he's dead regardless. I just hope he'll be born again, into a nice family.
Yuet... you've tried hard to pose as your brother.
Now try your best to follow his examples. Be sensible, lead a good life.
I know, Great Aunt. I will.
I plan on opening a business with a friend.
What kind of business?
A restaurant. People love to eat
and I know a thing or two about food.
We'll eat up a storm when the restaurant opens up.
A restaurant? What kind?
You're only good at conning people.
What do you mean?
Don't lie to me. You conned Sze Ka.
Don't use the word "con"!
She only has herself to blame for being greedy. She had fun eating too.
You're a cop. You didn't arrest her for stealing a phone.
All I did was help Eason get even.
I didn't get paid for it! I wouldn't call that a con.
What kind of nonsense is that?
What she did is unrelated! You definitely conned her!
Don't mix everything up!
No way.
You want to kill me, you brat?
Don't listen to her, Great Aunt.
I know who you are, and what you are. You won't let your brother rest in peace?
Why do you always think the worst of me?
I know that I'm nothing like my brother, but... what's wrong with being myself?
Think what you want. I did nothing wrong.
Can you stop doing this?
We all want what's best for you.
I don't understand why you are so different from your brother.
Why can't you be sensible like him?
What do you know about me?
Don't act like you know me.
Your brother told me everything.
What you heard was not what I saw.
- Help... - Help!
Mommy, Mommy! Mommy! Mommy... be careful!
Stay calm!
Mommy... Mommy... Mommy...
Mommy... Mommy...
Excuse me... I bought ice cream!
Mommy is dead.
I watched my Mom die, trying to save someone else.
Since then, I've thought that you get no thanks for doing a good deed.
No matter how hard you try, you still don't pick up any luck.
Look at my mom and my brother.
I know that I'm right.
Since there are no guarantees in life
what's the point of trying so hard?
I live my life any way I want
because you never know just how much time you actually have left.
Mr. Yiu, the patient who received your brother's heart has recovered fully.
He sent you a card
to thank your brother for saving his life.
This looks familiar.
I'm sorry. I bent the corner.
It's okay.
I don't know you from Mickey Mouse!
Mr. Fong, should I take you to get checked at the hospital?
I'm fine.
Okay, then. I will donate one million dollars to Dr. Yiu's hospital
to further fund operational medical equipment.
Hello?
Mr. Yiu Yuet Shan, please?
Yeah.
I'm calling from Easy Do Finance.
I've settled this with your boss. I'll paying back my debt later.
I'll deposit your money when I have it.
Mr. Yiu, you're mistaken.
Your previous loan has been paid off in full.
What?
Your $100,000 loan has been paid.
I'm calling about a new offer on a low interest loan.
I was wondering if you might be interested.
Oh... no, thanks.
Who paid off my debt?
It had to be Fong Chi Lik.
He wanted to thank us for my brother's heart...
I have to capitalize on this opportunity!
A person must grab the chance they're given.
- Hello. - Hello.
I wish to see Mr. Fong Chi Lik.
You are...
I'm Dr. Yiu Yat Shan's twin brother, Yiu Yuet Shan.
- Mr. Yiu. - Hello.
This way, please...
- You are... - Anna.
Anna, hello. I'm Hugo.
Nice office. Did they focus on the Feng Shui when they set it up?
I don't know about that.
Mr. Yiu is here.
Hello, Mrs. Fong.
I'm sorry. Mr. Fong won't have time to see you today.
I don't want to, or need to, know why you're here.
I've seen people like you...
trying to take advantage of being Dr. Yiu's brother.
You do think very highly of yourself.
You're such a joker, Mrs. Fong...
When will Mr. Fong be back?
He'll understand what I have to say.
- Please. - Please...
Goodbye.
I'll manage.
My brother saved your husband... ingrate.
That witch. I've never felt so humiliated.
Yat, you donated your heart for nothing.
Grab the chance.
Mr. Fong, hello! Do you remember me?
It's hard not to, you look exactly like Dr. Yiu.
He's Yat Shan, I'm Yuet Shan.
What do you want?
I came here to thank you.
I mean, about my loan with Easy Do.
I only found out that you ended up with my brother's heart by accident.
That's what you wanted to tell me?
In addition to thanking you
I also wanted to learn from you...
to work for you, to be your right-hand man.
I can feel my brother's heart telling you to stop putting, and to listen to me.
Mr. Fong, you look nothing like my brother
but I'm his twin
and I can really sense his heart talking.
He wants you to help his only brother, and to not reject him.
I can sense that too.
What else does Dr. Yiu say?
That's about it.
Yat, you must take good care of Mr. Fong.
Don't worry, I'll try to be a good person.
If these are Dr. Yiu's wishes
come see me tomorrow at Lik Chi Ko.
Thank you, Mr. Fong! Thank you, Mr. Fong!
I'll let you get back to your game. See you tomorrow.
I can't believe it worked...
- Hello, Mr. Yiu. - Hello.
I'm Lik Chi Ko Group's legal consultant, Ting Chun Ping.
Please call me Martin.
Hello, call me Hugo.
Hugo, Mr. Fong wants me to meet you.
Please come with me.
Thank you.
Here we are...
This is Lik Chi Ko Group's private club.
This is "Members Only".
Don't tell me you brought me here to throw me a welcome party.
I prefer to keep a low profile.
There you are, Martin.
This is Ben. This is Yiu Yuet Shan, newly hired by Mr. Fong.
- Hello, Ben. - Hello.
A welcome party is really not necessary.
You haven't changed yet?
Changed?
We run an exclusive private club. You need to change to wait on our guests.
Wait on your guests?
