Hey, give me a hand.
I can't do it with one hand. Hey...
I'm really tired...
Tired? Why?
Fei-fei's got exams.
She has no extracurricular activities.
Yan's taking care of her.
You have nothing to do.
What's tiring you?
You don't understand...
What don't I understand?
Have you made up your mind?
Are you going to my friend's music farm this weekend with me?
Yes! I'm free. I'll send you details later.
I can't waif...
Can't wait, not waif...W.A.I.T.
Hey! Don't peep at my messages! So rude!
Pretend it's on the CCTV.
Tired? You're actually infatuated.
It's normal at my age.
It beats you... What?
You're disabled now.
You can’t get any action.
How dare you...
Spare me...I'm going to see Brother Chan.
Rascal...
Fei-fei, how did you know about this place?
Sis Sing-sun said it's a fun place with performances.
I'm sure you'll love it.
You'll love it, am I right?
Fei-fei, your exam is over.
Have fun today.
Yes! If only Mommy could join us...
She's not free.
But we can have ice-cream.
Ice-cream?
Ice-cream? Don't let her mommy find out.
She'll nag you to no end.
I asked her for permission.
One scoop is OK. Yeah!
You're outrageous!
I really can't trust you with Fei-fei.
You'll break every rule in the book,
like tree-climbing or going after robbers.
Then I'll owe my sister a daughter.
You done? Done.
You don't know how many kids I raised in the children's home.
I'm more of an eldest sister than you are an eldest brother.
An eldest sister or a gangster queen?
Beware of the cops!
Are you two having a lovers' quarrel?
Fei-fei, you don't know the meaning of lovers' quarrel.
Let's go for fun...
Lovers' quarrel?
Melodic Carnival.
Uncle Foon...it's Uncle Yee.
Where? I don't see him.
Thanks...
Snap happy...
How about a family pic?
You're mistaken.
The big girl is my sworn brother,
and the small one is my niece.
Sorry... It's alright.
Uncle Foon...I want a photo.
Sis Chan, you be the cucumber, I'll be the tomato and Uncle Foon the wintermelon.
What's so funny?
You look the part!
You look exactly like a cucumber too!
Come on!
3, 2, 1...
Uncle Foon, you look like a wintermelon!
Let me show it to Sis Sing-sun.
Great...
Don't! I look terrible! Don't show it to other people.
Relax!
You're slim...for a wintermelon.
What?
Right, Fei-fei? Yes!
And you're as cool as a cucumber.
Not as cool as you.
Love means murmuring to the windowsill.
He's still unaware.
If only I could leave my mark in his dream tonight.
Every cloud that flies by the window is a note of the enchanting melody.
The stars are murmuring to the Moon.
Sweet is this prelude to love.
Thank you for coming to this music farm.
I hope you have a relaxing day.
Enjoy the sunlight, breeze and music.
Actually, I have a special guest to introduce to you.
Bowie, a very good friend of mine.
Let's give him a round of applause!
Bowie, come up and join me.
Thank you for coming.
Just play whatever you like.
Come on...
Don't play anymore.
It's no use forcing yourself.
Yee, you don't have it in you...
Why is he here?
It's Uncle Yee.
Bowie...
Uncle Yee...
What is he doing?
He has a stomachache.
He has to rush to the loo.
What's wrong with him?
The stage is not for him.
If I were him, I'd make myself scarce.
If it were me, I would have hid myself in a cave.
You're home.
Why did you tell everyone?
You big mouth!
What?
Yes, I had stage fright.
Yes, I should have made myself scarce.
I'm going to hide myself in a cave,
to spare you the eyesore!
What's wrong with him?
Why did he suddenly throw a temper tantrum?
Exactly.
What did you two do?
What? We were talking about the guy on TV.
He couldn't carry a tune.
What's wrong with him?
Oh no.
We went to the music farm.
He was there too.
He was asked to perform but he got stage fright.
He had to leave in shame.
What? He was performing? No way!
He did.
He had an asthma attack and passed out on stage when he was seven.
In order to spare him the painful memory,
Dad banned him from playing the piano,
not to mention the stage.
He won't even play for us,
how come he would perform in public?
That means he hasn't performed in public since he was seven.
So he has stage phobia?
Sheesh...
Anyone would get stage fright after such a long absence,
let alone someone with a childhood trauma.
He should know what he wants.
If he's afraid of the stage, he shouldn't force himself to do it.
Don't look so down.
You got them wrong.
They were laughing at the guy on TV, not you.
I hadn't said anything either.
Save it.
I really didn't.
If this is what you came to say, you can go back out.
What about your night shift this evening?
No.
Come on, so you screwed up, what's the big deal?
It happens to everyone.
Even superstars miss a note or two.
Don't take it to heart.
Stop it and leave me alone!
Just go out, please.
Alright, I'll go out.
Hold on... What?
Close the door.
Psst...
What?
Leave him alone.
He'll be fine in a few days.
He's a human being, not a tweet.
What happened can't be deleted or forgotten.
The generation gap between you two is as wide as the Victoria Harbour.
He'll pour his heart out to his friends.
He'll listen to them, not you.
Who are his friends? Do you know them?
Excuse me.
What? I'm not that fat.
You can pass through.
Come again?
I'm not that fat.
You can pass through.
Fat? Don't ever use that word again!
What now?
I was humiliated, yet you only care about your phone.
Come sit down first.
Who gave my hot wife a hard time?
Tell me, I'll avenge you.
No slim waist powder for me ever again!
The contract says
you have to keep your weight at 50 kg, and your waist at 24 inches.
Both have shot up.
That's a breach of contract.
You're no longer our spokesperson.
We can demand compensation too.
Actually it's water retention.
The weight gain is due to constipation and a faulty scale.
I shouldn't have put on this dress with thick fabric.
Do you need to overreact?
What about this?
I don't think you can blame this on water retention and constipation.
The beer belly does look terrible.
They could have picked a better photo.
I hate gossip magazines!
Just let it go.
My wife is too high class to be their spokesperson.
Don't be mad.
It's not about losing the job.
It's about the photo.
It's small and my long legs were cropped.
It makes me look like a Hobbit!
After I've read it, I'll burn it for you.
Don't read it!
It belongs in the toilet!
Don't! It'll block the toilet...
Lucky us! He hasn't bothered to change channels for two hours.
What a treat!
We haven't been able to binge-watch TV for some time.
Though I pity his lovesickness,
days without TV are hard to bear for us.
His suffering is our gain.
Hi...
Fei-fei, no fooling around.
Go freshen up and change out of your uniform.
Time for your piano lesson.
What? She's coming early today?
She has a banquet to attend this evening.
So she's coming an hour early.
Bowie, going out?
Yes, I'm in a hurry.
What? Stop staring at the pretty girl.
I'm not...
Hello... Mr Po.
Where's Yee? Where did he go?
He was here a moment ago.
I'm sorry. I think he rushed out because of me.
Because of what happened at the music farm?
I don't understand.
Why would he go on stage?
I happened to hear him play last time I came. He was very good.
So I asked him to perform.
He didn't have time to prepare so he came up short.
He did a terrific rendition of Rose, Rose, I Love You last time.
The Mandarin song?
Rose, Rose, I love you...
It's in Mandarin. Yee knows it?
He sang while he played.
Siu-Lan, time to water the plants.
Sure...
Fei-fei is waiting for you. Just go in.
Why are you two avoiding me?
Because of your guilty conscience?
What guilty conscience? We have nothing to fear.
Really?
I've thought about it.
Among the people in the house.
You're the only one who's sung Rose, Rose, I Love You, in Mandarin.
Yee is too young to know such golden oldies.
You're the prime suspect.
Yee play the piano well.
He just couldn't do it in front of the girl.
So I possessed him to give him a hand.
I was doing him a favor.
So you admit it...
You got jealous when you saw me with Chung.
Yet you were eager to flirt with the pretty girl with singing and playing.
Have you forgotten about me?
It wasn't flirting...
Please, you two together are two hundred years old.
Spare me your lovers' quarrel.
Shut up! I'm grilling him.
Sorry...carry on.
We have been a couple for so long.
You should know my heart.
I don't.
I didn't know that you sing Rose, Rose, I Love You to everyone.
Do you love her or me?
You don't love me anymore.
I do.
Rose, Rose, I love you...
Spare me your sweet-talking.
Rose, Rose...I love you.
She's left.
Siu-Lan...
Serves you right...
Yummy?
Getting better and better.
Have more.
Finish it.
You can have another on the house.
I heard Yee shoved you out of his room.
He didn't shove me...he threw me out.
That fool is too self-conscious and too thin-skinned.
He had no way to vent so he took it out on me.
It's what I have to endure as the eldest.
We all have our bad days.
Don't go out of the way to comfort him.
Just be there for him when he needs it.
I'm not a mentalist,
I don't know when I should be there for him
Add him as a friend.
I don't have a Facebook account.
Set one up.
Too much of a hassle.
A hassle? You don't know what you've missed.
I feel lonely even in a crowd.
Water tastes bitter when you're down.
What's that?
Something Yee wrote. What?
He hardly ever speaks.
I didn't know he's so sentimental.
It was just updated.
His goddess wouldn't fall for him if David Bowie couldn't play the guitar for her.
There's a broken heart too.
Broken heart?
Want to read it?
Set up an account.
If I set up an account,
I can chat with him face to face?
What they can’t say face to face, the young will pour out online.
Really?
Alright...help me create an account.
You want me to help? Yes.
Make me rice noodle rolls.
Alright, glutton!
Create one for me.
Rice noodle rolls right away.
You said it. Yes...
You first have to download an app.
Fill in the sign-up form.
What name do you want to use?
We didn't have to take it over.
A decoction has to be taken hot.
I managed to find a Chinese medicine physician who's a specialist on insomnia,
It's sure to work.
Poor you, it took you three hours to get this decoction.
Poor Brother Chan, she never gets more than three hours of sleep a day.
My effort was no big deal.
I just want to help her.
This one... Good...
How cute...
This is how you do it...
That fat Foon again!
Done!
Just wait for him to accept your invitation,
then you'll be friends.
What? I have to wait for him to accept? How very kind of him!
Brother Chan, I got this decoction from a physician good at treating insomnia.
Take it hot.
Boss, two pork lard noodles.
Coming.
Take the decoction.
I'll go make the noodles.
Hey, your arm hasn't fully recovered yet.
Let me do it for you.
It's almost fully recovered.
I can use the phone, I'm fine.
Come on, let me.
Can you do it? Of course.
Try the greens first.
That's easy.
Not really.
Don't over-blanch or under-cook them.
Shake it.
Are you OK? Any blister?
Bor, have Brother Chan drink the decoction.
No blister?
Let Chun help you.
Leave the chores to me.
Blanching greens?
Yes...
Put the greens in...
Easy...the greens are flying out.
Don't scald yourself.
That won't do.
You don't know how.
Let me...come on...
Let me help you...
Just leave Brother Chan alone.
That hurts...
Point taken.
Just go...
Good riddance.
No thanks to Chu Chan-Chan for bringing in those two brawny banes.
His grip has wreaked havoc.
Now my arm is hurting again.
Something's missing.
I followed Pa's recipe to the letter.
Why? What went wrong?
Chubby, what are you doing here?
Don't steal food.
Eat your cat food.
Go away...
I knew, there was no going back to cat food after chicken meat.
You prefer chicken meat to this.
Rascal Chubby...
You spilled the flour.
Kwai Po brand?
Time to go to work.
Brother Chan... What?
Let me cure your insomnia.
How?
Brother...Chan...Brother...Chan...
Sleepy?
Not one bit.
I just feel sticky.
I need to take a shower.
No...Wait for my killer move.
It'll work...
Thanks for your effort.
If it were that easy, it wouldn't have plagued me for so long.
Hey, I'm hungry. Make me something.
What's wrong with you?
Where are Brawny and Hunky?
They didn't tag along?
They're called Cheung Chun and Ling Bor. Show them some respect.
What's the difference?
Actually, who are they to you?
Which one's senior, which one's junior?
Hey... What?
I'm hungry. Where's the food?
I almost forgot.
I saved you something delicious.
Plain rolls. Don't add sauce.
See how it tastes.
What's the difference?
Try it first.
It's hot.
How is it?
It really is different.
It's Al dente. It has texture.
It really stands out?
It tastes like the rolls your dad made for Yan when I was in high school.
It really tastes similar.
Success has finally come after all the failures.
You changed the recipe?
It's still Dad's recipe.
He told me the secret of his success.
I just didn't pay attention.
The recipe calls for Kwai Po brand flour.
You can really taste the difference.
How did you remember that?
Thanks to Chubby, he led me to it.
Then you have to thank me.
Chubby led me to it. Why should I thank you?
I found Chubby.
Come on, another plate.
Miss Chu, isn't that a bit far-fetched?
Not at all.
There's no free lunch in this world.
The hinges of my room are as loose as my shoulder joint.
Fix them for me.
And I'll make you another plate.
How calculating.
How gluttonous.
It's yummy. Make me another plate.
You fix the hinges, I'll make you another plate.
Such a nag!
So yummy...
Fat Foon, it's fixed.
It's almost done.
Chu Chan-Chan...it's done...
Chu Chan-Chan...
Chu Chan-Chan...the rice rolls are done.
Dozed off just like that?
It's not easy for you to fall asleep.
You'll kill me if I wake you up.
Chu Chan-Chan, it's late.
Get up and go home...
It's past 4am already.
Get up...this is not a hotel.
Don't go...I want to be with you.
My kindness is my undoing.
Please, I've been standing all night.
You're sleeping, let me rest my legs.
My bones are aching.
You're sleeping like a log.
Finally awake.
Sorry. It's alright.
I dozed off. Me too.
I gotta go back.
Hold on. What?
Guess what time it is.
What time? I just took a nap.
It's past 10am.
How come I slept for so long?
How should I know.
Just go...
Such a crowd! What happened?
Hurry up...
I gotta look decent.
No one will notice.
Morning, you two.
Morning... Morning...
You two slept so well in there.
You didn't have to get up so early.
Early? What time is it?
Why didn't you wake me up?
I wouldn't dare. It's not proper.
I understand the power of passion.
Still, the office is narrow and far from comfortable.
How could you two...
You've got it all wrong.
Save it. It may not be comfortable to her,
Its comfy enough for us two.
Right?
We understand.
We sometimes have to make do too.
What?
Hubby, the land shortage problem is getting worse and worse.
Chan-Chan, your shop must be more comfortable.
I forgot to lock it up last night!
What does that mean?
The shop front is all glass. What do you think?
She's not picking up.
Where has she gone?
Take it easy. She probably fell asleep in the shop.
The calls would have woken her up.
She's on call 24 hours a day.
She would have picked up the calls.
Something's not right.
I told you she's in the shop.
Brother Chan.
Where did you go last night?
You didn't answer my calls.
You called me?
The battery died.
What's up?
I couldn't reach you all night.
We thought something happened to you.
Not just something, something big.
I finally got a whole night's sleep!
The decoction worked?
Probably...
You can kiss insomnia goodbye!
Right...I'll go back for a shower.
You two look after the shop.
No problem! Good...
Did you see the light?
She hugged me.
I see your smitten look.
The latest shopping mall couple.
What? She spent the night with Fat Foon.
So who cured her of insomnia?
You or him?
The proof is in the picture.
What do you think?
Yes, speaking.
Of course I've heard of your company.
Great...call me once the time is confirmed. Bye.
Hubby, I have a job offer!
Spokesperson for what?
It's more than a blog promotion.
I may get to star in a commercial.
What?
I see you all the time already.
Now I have to see you on TV as well, please...
I said maybe.
Thank heavens.
Don't regret it when you take your friends to ask me for autographs.
Say no to them.
Here he is...
What happened?
Where have you been all night?
Was it that busy in the eatery?
You didn't answer calls.
I dozed off and the phone battery died.
I'll make you breakfast.
No, thanks. Let me catch up on sleep.
You guys enjoy.
Was business that good?
Don't bother with him. He's just weird.
The battery really died.
Po Foon, it's Joanne.
Do you have time for me?
Please call me back.
It's me again.
I don't mean to trouble you.
Could you do me a favor?
Sorry, I know I'm troublesome.
I get discharged today.
I have no one to pick me up.
If you have time,
could you come to Yan Oi Hospital to pick me up?
Miss Chin, is anyone coming to pick you up?
They can't spare the time.
Joanne...
Your boyfriend's here.
Excuse me.
Thank you. You're welcome.
How are you? Is your leg alright now?
I thought you didn't care about me anymore.
Of course not, we're friends.
My phone battery died.
So I got your message late.
If my sister didn't have to go to the U.K.,
I wouldn't have troubled you.
No trouble at all.
You can go now.
Give me your bag. I'll take you home.
Be careful...
Nurse...
Sit down first.
So useless.
My leg is too weak to walk.
Take it easy.
No use hurting yourself.
You told me you had recovered.
Why are you in hospital again?
I was too impatient.
I could walk so I started dancing again.
The old injury was aggravated again.
You should have waited till you're fully recovered.
Recuperation takes time.
The doctor suggested a rehabilitation therapy in America.
America? How much does that cost?
Around $300,000.
That much?
I have no income; I can’t afford it.
Maybe heaven doesn't want me to dance again.
Still, why give me hope and then take it back?
Come on...think about it later.
Let's leave first.
We'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
Don't worry about it.
Don't worry about me, I'm fine.
Let's go.
Boss, here's our list.
Please deliver them to my shop.
Sure...
Boss, do you have Kwai Po brand flour?
We don't have that in stock.
Why don't you call the factory?
Thanks.
Why should you care?
She's no longer your responsibility.
You've broken up.
Can't we still be friends?
If you could, you wouldn't have broken up.
You're down and out now.
I've never seen her come to the eatery to resume your friendship.
That's different.
How is it different?
Why should she call the ex-boyfriend and not someone else to pick her up?
What are you hinting at?
Either she wants to patch up with you or she's after your money.
She didn't ask me for money.
I want to help her.
That's her damsel in distress gambit.
You'll give her the money once you feel sorry for her.
She needs money for her treatment.
She's not conning me.
Treatment? You gave her a million already.
She's like a bottomless pit now.
I'm partly responsible for her leg injury.
What if the money is not for her leg?
Her leg was almost healed last time I saw her.
She must be very hard up if she had to resort to this.
So should I help her get back on her feet.
She's my ex-girlfriend after all.
You're not a saint.
So do you have money to lend me?
Of course not.
Even if I did, I wouldn't.
Bail yourself out first.
My wife balanced this month's sheet for you.
Minus overheads,
you have around $5,000 left.
How are you going to bail others out?
Are you going to lend me money or not?
No!
Yes or no? No!
Fine! Forget it!
Hey! What?
My sister's back.
You don't have to worry about me.
I want to repay you for my hospital bill.
Have time for a drink?
Hear that? She's going to repay me.
I heard.
You paid her hospital bill.
She really sees you as an ATM.
If you insist.
Be smart and listen to me.
Call her at your own risk.
$40 please.
Thank you.
Fat Foon...
Your eyebags sure are huge.
You haven't slept in a while?
Do you remember my night-long sleep in the office?
Yes. Why?
I thought it was because of the decoction.
Actually, it's not.
It's because of you.
Me? Why?
It's because of the rice noodle rolls you fed me.
That wasn't the first time you had it.
It didn't have that effect.
It's different because it had Kwai Po flour.
What?
Make me rice noodle rolls.
I'm sleepy.
I'm out of Kwai Po flour.
This is ordinary flour.
Go buy some.
I've tried every grocery store in town.
No one has it.
It's probably no longer available.
Go look for it.
Please, I'm really very sleepy.
I'm not lying.
Please, stop badgering me.
I'm sleepy.
Believe me, there's nothing I can do.
Po Foon...
Who's calling me by my full name?
What are you two doing?
Why are you here?
A friend referred an acupuncturist nearby.
I remembered you said Brother Tsun has an eatery here.
So I thought I might run into you here.
Let's go grab a coffee.
Wait for me. Let me change.
Not a moment too soon.
Watch the shop.
What? Watch the shop.
Let's go.
So your brother has a girlfriend.
Ex, to be exact.
He's a lucky guy to have such a pretty ex.
You think it's ridiculous too?
It's Beauty and the Beast.
Why didn't you call me back?
Too busy with the eatery?
Business is OK.
It's a neighbourhood shop.
I have to be there all the time.
Who was the girl there? Your girlfriend?
That tomboy? No way!
She may have long hair,
but that doesn't make her a woman.
She's more of a guy than I am.
You're an eligible bachelor.
It's normal for you to have a girlfriend.
You shouldn't worry about how I feel.
No more relationships for me for the time being.
What about you? How are you doing?
Is your leg better?
I can walk with a crutch.
I haven't told Mommy yet.
She's emigrated with my stepdad.
She has her own family now.
She thought I would marry you.
I don't want her to worry about me.
How are you doing financially?
If you need help, just tell me.
What about the rehabilitation therapy you mentioned?
Forget it. I can live without it.
I don't have to go back to dancing.
I make great cakes.
I can make a living with that.
But dancing has always been your dream.
Can you bear to let that go?
It's my fault...
Don't blame yourself. I don't blame you.
I just blame my fate.
Don't be so fatalistic.
Leave the $300,000 to me.
I want your leg to be fully healed.
Thank you.
I'm a bit tired.
Let's go. Sure.
Keep the change...
Be careful.
Sorry.
The beautician suggested lymphatic drainage when I was having a facial.
That's why I'm late.
You've been waiting long?
It's alright. I saw a great show before you came.
So your alpha-male brother turned into a lamb in front of that woman.
A girlfriend like that with his looks?
I'd say that's his life's achievement.
Are you talking about Joanne?
How did you know?
She came to the eatery to see Foon last night.
She had to walk with a crutch.
Do you know how she got the limp?
How?
Because of Foon?
Yes. His reckless driving led to an accident which broke her leg.
What?
Not only that, he dumped her afterwards.
He looked so sorry last night.
He should take care of her for the rest of her life.
He should marry her.
Joanna's life is ruined.
I wonder if his blood is cold.
He's so irresponsible, he's not a man at all.
No...
Next time you gossip, make sure the subject is not around.
I checked!
Did you?
Your door was open and I saw you weren't in.
I thought you had gone out.
You didn't check thoroughly enough.
I was out on the balcony feeding the cat.
Great storytelling with made-up details and biting remarks.
Yue, why are you using Chubby's bowl?
No wonder one's missing.
Don't tell me you're eating his food.
Wash it for him, OK?
All busybodies...
Since he was 8, when he was on stage...
Didn't you practice for 15 minutes?
Since he was 7, when he fainted from...
an asthma attack on stage...
Don't force things...
So that means...
What they can’t say face to face,
the young will pour out up there...
...pour out online.
