Every word is hard work.
It's Yam-yam's labour of love.
She may look young... She's still a virgin!
How can you do this to me?
She died in my arms?
I don't remember it at all.
Yam-yam, I hope your wish will come true in another world.
Yam-yam, we're burning you these fancy clothes
and all the gold ingots are for you to spend.
You won't suffer like you did in this life.
Don't be so sad, Honey.
I can't believe we tried so hard to save her last time
only to end up like this.
Why? Why didn't her scumbag of a father die?
He killed Yam-yam.
Boxer, Tooth Man, you must find Gambler Fat and avenge Yam-yam.
We couldn't find him.
His daughter is dead and he didn't show up!
Death is too kind for him.
We'll see what kind of retribution awaits a scumbag like him.
Tiu Lan is still in the perm shop?
I know. Yam-yam was like a sister to her.
She's too heart-broken to send her off.
Is this the hand cream you let me use on my hands?
Your hands get dry from shampooing.
This hand cream will take care of it.
Tooth Man!
Sit... don't move!
About Yam-yam...
Don't worry!
Boxer and I will take care of it.
We all know you need time.
I still can't believe what happened.
Looking at the towels and the buckets
reminds me of the day she came for her interview.
It felt like yesterday.
When I had something I couldn't figure out,
you did this to help me relax.
I hope I can help you relax now.
What? Did I hurt you?
No, I'm fine.
Sorry, I'm not doing a very good job.
I'm sorry if I'm hurting you.
Close your eyes.
I have to tell you something.
I don't remember anything from that day.
All the more reason I must tell you.
The day you passed out, your heart stopped.
I know a bit about medicine and I've looked it up.
You may have a heart condition.
Heart condition?
It can be quite serious.
Don't over-exert yourself.
Definitely no strenuous exercise.
I see.
Tell me if you're not feeling well.
If you want to talk, or need anything,
I'll do my best to help.
It's over. Everything is over.
If I had a choice,
I would not remember anything from the past.
I am Tiu Lan.
I don't remember the past.
I don't remember what happened at the fruit market.
Class, know what it means by "politeness"?
Before you ask anyone to do anything, you must say this word.
It's very useful, repeat after me, "please".
What's wrong? You look so dejected.
Miss All-shhy, you didn't say "please".
Are you trying to be difficult?
Listen, I can be quite a monster when I am angry.
I can be a monster if I'm hungry.
I told you to raise your hand before you speak up.
What is it, But Siu-sun?
I'm too weak to stand up.
Can I talk sitting down, please?
Fine! What is it?
We're hungry because we didn't have enough to eat at lunch.
We're very hungry.
I'm back! I've brought you food.
Don't fight. One for each of you.
Be careful!
Miss All-shhy, I want...
You've finished eating already?
Alright, you can have mine.
What's wrong?
Siu-sun...
You still want to sell that?
Stop making them. This is food.
Stop hurting people.
What's going on, Miss?
I bought sticky rice pudding from you.
The kids from the school are now hospitalised for food poisoning.
They're innocent. How can you live with yourself?
Something wrong with the pudding? What happened?
The doctor said there's dope in your pudding.
How can you do this?
I bought the pudding for the kids.
If anything happens to them, I'll never forgive myself.
And I won't go easy on you.
How are they? Can I see them?
Why? You have hurt them enough.
I want to see how I can help.
I beg you... please!
Siu-sun will be fine, right?
Don't worry, he'll be fine.
Fung, you're a doctor.
Will Big Bean and Little Bean be alright?
Don't worry, the doctor will do his best.
Why would Mr. Yeung put dope is his sticky rice pudding?
He put in dope, not flour.
He's probably working for Opium Kam.
If I see that scumbag, I will kill him.
Count me in.
How are the kids?
How dare you show your face!
My son is in the hospital because of you.
Hey, where do you think you are?
This is a hospital. Take your fight outside.
Siu-sun... Siu-sun!
Siu-sun...
Out of the way, the doctor is working.
Siu-sun!
He's my only child. Please save him!
Siu-sun! Honey...
Get up! Get Up!
Scumbag!
And I trusted you.
No wonder your pudding can go in and out as you please.
You're in collusion with the Fellow Association.
I'm sorry!
Sorry? What's the use of saying that now?
The kids are the key.
If I can help, take my money, even my life.
I'd rather be the one lying inside and not the kids.
Spare us your act, scumbag!
Wait! Let him explain.
I didn't want to do this, but the Fellow Association forced me.
What happened? Tell us everything.
Opium Kam threatened me with the lives of my workers
and forced me to help them send his goods outside the City.
He didn't tell me what they were and I didn't ask.
You should know Opium Kam is a scumbag.
Why did you help him?
I admit I was too naive.
I thought I'd feel better if I didn't know.
It was my fault what happened to the kids.
I'm sorry, everyone.
I had no guts to say "no"
and I helped them with their evildoing.
I'm so sorry!
Opium Kam is a scumbag.
Genuine scumbag!
He'll get his retribution.
That's right...
Master Kam... give me half a pack.
You got me hooked. You must help me.
Get high? I'll send you straight to Heaven.
Still want to get high?
Beat him up!
High enough for you?
Boss!
Get me the account books.
[I need to see how much money] have.
What is it? Something urgent?
The kids are in the hospital because of our pudding.
I must raise some money to pay for their medical expenses.
What are you doing here?
Hard on cash, Mr. Yeung?
You're scraping every dollar you have.
What do you want?
They say you owe me money.
You lost my goods, just pay me back.
This is hardly enough.
You can't take the money!
This is for the kids in the hospital.
Give it back!
Relax! How are those kids?
Spare me your crocodile tears.
You should be happy for them.
They get to taste the good stuff at such a young age
and I'll have more customers.
What kind of human being are you?
Me? Am I a human being?
Boss!
I will not transport goods for you again.
What did you say? I can't hear you.
I won't help you again.
Say that again!
I won't help you anymore.
Can you say that again?
I won't move your goods out of the City.
No? You won't rest until you piss me off?
You got my goods all over the place,
I already let that slide,
why do you have to piss me off?
I don't want to hurt anyone anymore.
No? Fine...
Kill his workers.
Do it slowly... Let them relish it!
Yes, Master Kam!
No... please don't, Master Kam!
No? How about I break their arms and legs
before I kill them?
Please let them go, Master Kam!
There's no use for you to lean on me.
The neighbours are furious
and I can't open for business.
If you ship out your goods, I'm sure they'd interfere.
I can't imagine what would happen to your goods.
You can't open for business?
Trash up his place... Now!
Yes, Master Kam.
I'll give you 7 days.
Regardless of how much goods I have,
you'd better take them all and ship them out
or else I'll kill you and bury your workers.
You're my dog. You don't have a choice.
Luckily Tiu Lan didn't make a move.
If she did, the 2 of us couldn't have held her back.
I can't tell if she really can't remember what happened that day.
It's over. Why bring it up again?
The neighbours can't raise enough money for the poor kids.
Let's hope Mr. Yeung can come up with the rest.
Have you tried this? Not very good.
It's tasteless... nothing like the ones those kids ate.
Scumbag!
Take it easy.
You want to pick a fight?
Come on! The one inside is still rolling around on the floor.
Let go!
Let's go in for a look.
Disappointed? Maybe next time.
Relax, I won't kill you.
You'll face a fate worse than death.
Mr. Yeung!
Are you OK, Mr. Yeung?
Don't worry, I'm fine!
I'm sorry, this is all I have.
Take it to help the kids.
No, please keep it, Mr. Yeung. That's right.
We'll figure something.
Don't bother to clean up. Go home!
I'm sorry I got you involved.
I'll pay for your medical expenses.
We're fine, Boss!
Go on home!
Bye, Boss! Bye!
Boxer, Tooth Man, I'm sorry!
Master Kam forced me to move his goods again 7 days later.
I'm all alone. I can lose my life,
but I can't bear to see him bury my workers.
I couldn't turn him down.
We understand, Mr. Yeung.
Tooth Man, I know your father is Duen Tung-tin.
Ever since Master Duen passed away,
those creeps from the Fellow Association started their criminal activities,
and plunged the City into degradation for 15 years.
Every night, I dream about someone like Master Duen,
would come forward and lead us against the Fellow Association.
I waited 15 years and no one came forward.
Then I thought to myself,
why do I have to wait for someone to take the lead?
Why can't it be me?
By the time I came up with this idea,
I was too old and powerless.
When I saw how you took over the standpipe,
I felt there's still hope for the City.
The hero has appeared.
You are the hero.
This is not just my dream.
Everyone in the City is wishing for the same thing.
You have the ability and the guts.
If you come forward, the neighbours will back you up.
The future of the City is in your hands.
Are you willing to be the hero?
What are you thinking?
Nothing.
Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
Follow me.
Mr. Yeung is right.
We have the support of the neighbours.
Why let the Fellow Association bully us?
They have their Fellow Association.
We can set up our own Welfare Association
and rid the City of all vices.
The City is our home...
and this is the home of our Welfare Association.
This is the home of our Welfare Association.
Imagine this... We'll put our sign over here.
Everyone can see it when they walk in.
Here is where we teach kungfu.
They can protect themselves
as well as those around them.
Under the sign, we'll have a long table
where we'll discuss important matters.
The neighbours can come to us anytime.
We'll plan our moves
and move out from here.
No way!
Why not?
Everyone has to make a living.
If they learn kungfu,
who will look after the children?
If we were to set up an association,
we must have a nursery
so the kids wouldn't go astray.
You! We can put in bookshelves,
so they can read books and learn.
Though you like to pick fights,
I'm surprised you have good thinking.
In order to bring together the neighbours,
first, we must give them a sense of security.
Next, we must work towards their well-being.
We can work with But Tak-liu.
Find a cheaper way to deliver water.
Better yet, we help them put in plumbing.
Everyone will have water when they turn on the tap.
That should do!
A few people can't do much.
It's just the beginning.
The neighbours will want to join us.
First we must defeat the Fellow Association
and change things around in the City.
Don't hold it in. Go ahead and laugh.
Aren't you excited just listening to me?
Not bad. You said we'd teach kungfu?
Yes, you can't do it alone.
It's better if I back you up.
You? You should be learning from me.
You think so little of me.
Let's wait till you beat me.
Listen to me, Tooth Man.
I will beat you next time and by a big margin.
We'll see.
You will acknowledge me as your shifu.
You have a deal.
Boxer?
What are you doing here?
I couldn't sleep, so I took a walk.
You should go back to sleep.
Don't be so agitated. Am I interrupting?
Never mind.
You can talk to us if you want.
You have me, Tooth Man and your sisters.
You're not alone.
I don't know what you're talking about.
Whether or not you get it...
Look, we all have a past.
We have things we'd rather not bring up.
It's OK if you choose to forget.
You have come a long way.
If I were you, I wouldn't give that up in a fit of anger.
Don't sound like you know me so well.
I'm talking about me.
We all come to the City alone with some sort of baggage.
That's why I know what's simple is the best.
Don't do anything stupid again.
Your business is now our business, get it?
I hate it when people are so corny.
Corny? The man of your dreams thinks so too.
If anything happens to anyone,
we won't stand on the sidelines and watch.
We must work together
and the Fellow Association can't bully us again.
I'm counting you in.
Not if I have to chip in money.
Don't be so money-minded. Not everything is about money.
What else? Your feelings?
Don't be such a nag at this late hour.
Get out of my way, I want to buy a late snack.
The congee stand will give you a bigger bowl when they close.
One bowl of congee.
How could you not get me to join you but sneak out for a snack?
I'll have what she's having.
Give him a smaller bowl.
Fine. Gain some weight. Tooth Man won't like that.
Come on over and take a look.
These are imported from England.
Don't miss your chance.
How much is the dress?
Daddy bought me this dress the first time he visited me in England.
I'm not selling this, find something else.
They're all very exquisite.
You're not selling?
Be gentle! It's an antique.
I seldom wind it myself.
Only when I was unhappy in England.
How much is this?
I'm not selling it either.
What a waste of time!
Hey, you stole from me!
So what if I took it?
Give it back! Let go of me!
Give it back! Let go! Are you crazy?
Come back, you creep!
My vase!
You shouldn't be running around.
Stop following me!
Did you see everything?
Why didn't you come out and help me?
Now my vase is broken!
Do you know this vase is...
What are you doing?
You've had your fun. Go home!
Fun? Take that over there and I'll start over.
No one would dare steal from me with you standing around.
You need money?
You get paid for teaching in an elite school.
Mr. Or also gives you an allowance.
That's none of your business.
Give me every dollar you have!
This is all you have?
You shouldn't be seen with me unless you have at least $1,000.
If you need more, just ask Mr. Or.
That's my business.
Don't let Daddy know about this.
The stuff you're carrying...
I'll pretend I've sold... no, I'm putting them in your care.
I have things to do.
I'm warning you, don't follow me.
Nurse, this is all I have.
Please help me out.
This is only enough for the ER expenses.
You need money to pay for the medication to keep him alive.
Who's paying for that? Me?
This should be enough.
Enough for a bed in this room and not a cot in the hallway.
Have a heart. He's just a kid.
He's your kid.
If you want him to get well,
bring me $100 for his medication.
Nurse, I'm begging you, please have a heart.
I will get the money.
Please ask the doctor to save my son.
Please put in a good word with the doctor.
We don't run a charity in here.
You can't cure him with no money.
Think it over and I have work to do.
Where can we get $100?
I'm sorry. I only know how to spend money, not earn money.
This is all I have.
It's not your fault.
As his father, I'm utterly useless.
What happened? We've been robbed?
I turned the shop upside down and couldn't scrape together a dollar.
I'll rob whoever has $100.
Maybe there is someone.
Who?
I saw a poster on the street.
The Fellow Association is organising another underground boxing match.
You'll get $200 if you sign up in pairs.
Forget it, we'll only be a punching bag for the others. Clean this up.
Get up, son. I've made you congee.
You haven't eaten all day.
Get up and eat some congee.
It's your favourite. Come on...
Mother, your eyes are all red.
I'm fine. Have some congee.
Are you lying to me?
Why would I lie?
Am I going to die?
Of course not, silly! You're not dying.
Mother, please don't cry.
Honey, we can save Siu-sun!
I've paid his hospital bill.
Where did you get $100?
I won in a Word Flowers lottery.
That's why I could pay for Siu-sun.
I've also paid for the other kids.
Are you serious? Don't lie to me.
I can't take another blow.
I wouldn't joke about our son's life.
I'm not lying.
So it's true? Siu-sun...
Get well soon and you can go home.
(One week later)
We're home!
Yeah... I've been away for so long.
Hey... what if you fall and kill yourself?
I'll tickle you to death...
Let me check your tummy.
Stop horsing around!
Look at him... see? His tummy is gone!
Siu-sun and the other kids are alive,
I really should thank the gods.
Good. Let's have a chicken, beef brisket,
and don't forget a fish with ginger and spring onion.
Invite Boxer, Tiu Lan and the gang
to come for a feast to celebrate.
Can you grow money? We've already spent a lot of it.
You need to spend it sparingly.
You make money so that you can spend it.
We should enjoy when we're happy, right?
Look at his sunken cheeks.
I'll save you a chicken leg tonight, OK?
Yeah!
What else do you want?
I want cream cake.
You always pick the expensive stuff.
He's a gourmet like me! Yes!
Light up a shisha, super happy
Like having seafood...
Boss... I'm glad to see you. We're in trouble!
We're celebrating Siu-sun's discharge from the hospital.
I'm counting you in.
No, this is important.
The draw result of the boxing match is out.
What's the big deal? I took their money to save Siu-sun,
I expect to be beaten up.
I've seen it all inside the City.
Follow me and you'll know what I mean.
Look, they are our opponents.
Fast Whip and Slow Whip... we're dead.
They're ordinary kungfu practitioners,
a few punches won't kill us.
I'm sorry, Mr. Or. He came from nowhere.
Then run over him. Why did you stop?
Mr. Or!
What's that? Take care of it.
Yes!
Who are you? Get out of the way.
I must speak to Mr. Or
or else I'm not leaving even if it kills me.
Get up and get lost! Mr. Or is busy.
Mr. Or! What?
I'm not asking for much, I need your help.
I don't want to be in the boxing match.
Can you let me withdraw?
You stopped my car for this?
I'm sorry, please help me out.
Please have a heart...
That will cost me money!
I'll return the money for signing up... by instalments.
It won't take long.
Instalments? Should I give you some money?
No, Mr. Or. Please believe me.
I'm good for my word.
I signed up to deal with an emergency.
I'll pay you back once I get the money.
Good! Give me $1,000.
What? $1,000?
I always play fair.
It's spelt out in the consent form,
if you back out, you must pay $1,000.
I didn't force you to sign it.
Where can I get $1,000?
That's your problem.
On account of my young wife and son, please spare me.
Hey!
Don't mess up my clothes!
You can't pay for them.
Young wife and son is good.
You can sell them for a higher price.
Here's a tip, selling them is not enough.
You need to sell your blood and organs.
Mr. Or, I really don't want to die.
But I want you to.
Better yet, with broken limbs, spilling blood all over.
How else would trash like you bring in the crowd
and attract more bets?
How else can I make money?
Mr. Or...
Let me remind you,
it's also stated in the consent form,
I own your organs if you die in the ring.
Tell your wife she won't get your body intact.
Mr. Or!
You're making a mess.
Eat slowly.
Want some, Honey? Honey!
What's wrong? You seem preoccupied.
You're not feeling well?
No, I was too full from dinner.
No, you were like this when you came home.
Did you hurt yourself when you dropped the cake?
Siu-sun, come here.
Did you like the cake?
Remember that taste.
I may not be able to buy you another cake.
Of course it's good. It's expensive.
See how much your father loves you.
You'll buy me cake again next time I'm sick.
Touch wood! Don't say that!
You must behave,
don't make your mother worry about you.
What about you?
Of course I worry about you. I'll miss you.
What's wrong, Honey?
I'm a bit emotional to see Siu-sun alive and well.
Don't scare me. You must tell me if there's something wrong.
Look after yourself.
When you grow up, look after Mother.
Go to Boxer or Tooth Man if you need help.
Don't cry, Father. Here's a treat for you.
You should eat more if you like.
The match is conducted in pairs.
The first match will begin shortly.
First up, known for their speed and strength
their opponents come on stage standing up,
but are carried off stage sideways.
The invincible duo, Fast Whip and Slow Whip.
They look impressive, but they're no match for you.
10 seconds.
Are you that confident?
I'll send them flying off stage in 10 seconds.
Opponents with broken limbs.
$10 on broken limbs.
Where's your partner?
It's time to go on stage.
Broken limbs...
If my partner is not coming,
I can't do this alone. Can I forfeit?
If he's not coming, you'll fight them both.
Move it! Hurry up!
Hold it!
What are you doing?
Sorry I'm late, Boss!
Yip Fai, I appreciate your loyalty.
But one of us dead is better than both.
You should leave.
I got help. They'll fight for us.
We'll take over the match.
What right do you have?
He's a member of our Association.
We represent the Kowloon Walled City Welfare Association.
Ever heard of us?
Remember it well!
We're fighting in the name of the Kowloon Walled City Welfare Association.
He's our member.
We represent the Welfare Association.
Have you heard of...
You haven't heard?
You want me to do this... or this?
Sorry!
Spare us your act, scumbag!
Don't be reckless!
Sorry, didn't stop him in time.
Whether you understand...
Lost my balance. Sorry!
