Fei-fei, who's talking to you?
Uncle Foon.
How outrageous!
Po Foon, come out!
Po Foon!
Bianca...
You're too old to be playing hide-and-seek.
You're too big for the drapes.
Come out! Why did you come back?
Yee's not feeling well.
So I picked Fei-fei up from school.
She's my daughter.
If Yee can’t do it, I would have done it.
We don't need you to pick her up.
Take it easy...
If you don't want to see me, I can go.
Sorry...excuse me.
Mommy, don't throw Uncle Foon out.
I got to be Princess Swan because he picked me up.
He's going to take me to a ballet
to see how a pretty princess should act.
You still believe him?
He never honors his word.
Whatever he says is a lie.
You will be disappointed again and again if you believe him.
I'd rather you quit ballet than stick with him.
Come over.
What are you doing?
Why won't you let me take ballet?
I love ballet, I want to be Princess Swan.
I want Uncle Foon.
Why are you so disobedient?
Don't scream at her.
Now you've made her cry.
Shut up!
It's none of your business.
My daughter was always obedient.
You've led her astray! You're a bad person!
Uncle Foon is not a bad person.
You're the bad person.
Fei-fei... Fei-fei...
Take it easy!
She's just a kid. Have patience with her.
Why are you driving a wedge between me and my daughter?
What are you talking about?
What am I talking about?
She believed you, she adored you.
Then you left her.
You broke her heart. She can't bear that.
You don't know that feeling, but I do.
I've been there.
Please. You moved out, make it permanent.
Leave my family alone, please.
What's the big deal?
Get lost!
Boss, the chicken wings are still red.
Could you replace them?
Eat.
Kiddo, let me ask you a question.
What color are apples?
See? Your parents peeled them for you since you were small.
Of course you don't know they're red.
Chicken wings are red too. Get it?
You don't like them? Fine.
Go home.
Crazy! Big deal! Fool!
Hey, Fat Foon...
What's wrong with you?
You've offended a customer.
I don't have the time or mood to make you rice noodle rolls.
Shop's closed, just go home...
Hey, shop's closed...you have a minute...
A guy can drink away any unhappiness.
Don't take it out on your customers.
I didn't.
You don't need to lie to me.
Yan told me about it.
Are you rubbing it in?
What's one more twist of the knife?
Go ahead.
I'm here to lend you a shoulder.
I was such an idiot.
Instead of living the free life of a single man,
I opted to be the good eldest brother again and insisted on a reunion.
I ended up with a total mess.
I don't have a home to go back to.
You did it for the family.
I won't care for this family from now on.
I hear nothing and see nothing.
Just leave me alone.
I want to be myself again, the selfish me.
I am selfish!
Fine! I believe you...can never do it.
I can't? You don't know the real me.
This is just a mask.
This is the real me. I can’t?
Hey, Yan hurt her head and is in the hospital now.
What? Which hospital?
Have a look. Which hospital?
It's an ad for a beauty parlor.
Cheap!
I knew you referred us for that Space Shuttle job.
If you were selfish, you wouldn't have cared.
Don't let her know.
Or I'll have to silence you.
I really want to tell her so
she'll forgive you.
Dream on.
I know my sister.
She's stubborn.
She would rather give up the job.
Then she won't make back the $200,000.
Money is so important to her.
If she can’t recoup it,
the loss will forever be a thorn in her side.
I don't know if you're a noble man or a loser.
Neither. I'm a stupid fool.
Dad, I did what you wanted.
I've tried my best.
They won't listen to me.
There's nothing I can do.
It's over...
No more beer? I'll get more.
Sit down...
It's not easy for you to fall asleep, don't frown.
Another nightmare?
Easy...
Hey... Cheers...
We're done drinking.
Really?
What time is it?
Past 6am already!
What's wrong with you?
What happened to lending me a shoulder?
You fell asleep.
I had no one to listen to me!
You let me sleep on the table.
You have some nerve!
I asked you to go to the room to sleep.
You wouldn't wake up.
You were sleeping on my arm.
Really? Thanks.
You could have withdrawn it and gone home.
What if you got molested?
I would blame you for that.
What's that stench? Indeed...
What is it? What is it?
It's your bad breath!
I need to use the toilet.
Is it really that bad?
Po Foon, wake up!
She's Chu Chan-Chan, a man!
No more loving looks, OK?
Yes, your love life is dry.
But not so dry that you need to turn gay.
I think she's a nice girl.
She may not be a tender loving girl,
but she has a heart of gold.
She's straightforward and loyal.
She stuck with you the whole night, isn't she awesome?
It's understandable that you'd have a crush on her.
Po Foon, please, how old are you?
You're a mature man.
You're too old for crushes.
You know your type,
curvy and sweet girls.
Chu Chan-Chan is such a tomboy. She's not right for you.
You can’t handle her because she's a man.
What are you doing? Still drunk?
It's a swinging hands exercise.
A granny told me it's reinvigorating.
With my hangover...
Go do that in a park.
This Is not the right place for swinging hands.
Sorry...
She's fine...she's just hungover.
Madam Chu, go to a park.
Let's do it together.
Spare me.
Get out of my way.
Come on, try this move.
What? Wait...
It's a manly move... Manly?
Stand straight. Chin tucked in. Extend out.
Tuck in...extend out...
Stop.
Look at you! I knew you had a triple chin.
What? It's a prank?
Tidying up...
I have no time for you now.
I need to go back to Space Shuttle to tidy things up.
You do?
I need to have a chat with Seafood.
What about giving me a ride?
But I have to brush my teeth and take a shower first.
I need to go home to shower and change.
Lucky you.
I have yet to have a proper hot shower since I've been staying here.
Join me then.
You sure?
I mean go back with me.
You can use my bathroom.
Brother Chan, you done?
It's urgent.
Hey... What?
It's not Brother Chan inside.
It's your most hated fatso.
What? That groper has the nerve to come up here?
What does he take me for?
Brother Chan took pity on him for having no place to stay or shower,
so she lent him the bathroom.
You know how kind-hearted she is.
Just think of him as a stray dog or cat.
I just can’t stand her kind-heartedness getting abused.
This time a shower, next time he may stay.
I need to let him know this is not a no-man's land.
That feels so good.
Morning.
I just came for a shower.
I'm not in your way, am I?
To be honest, I used to go to the gym over a decade ago.
I haven't had the time for it lately and gravity has taken its toll.
The bulky parts have gone from here to there.
Chan-Chan, am I wanted?
Brother Chan... What now?
That was a close call.
Brawny and Hunky almost devoured me alive!
I told you they're a pair.
They couldn't care less about you.
I'm not so sure.
They may like to kill me for their sport.
Hey, help me pick one.
From these two?
Yes.
This... or this?
This one is pretty ugly.
What?
What about this one?
Even worse.
Why? Why are you so unsure?
Who are you dressing for?
I'm a boss. I should look the part.
You finally see.
Now you know how pathetic you look.
Save it.
I can do it myself.
I really don't get it.
Captain Po is every kid's idol.
Yet you prefer the Monster.
Tell me why.
Because Monster is good.
The whole TV station knows.
Monster makes the kids cry.
Captain Po saves the day every time.
I am the good guy.
I don't mean the Monster in the show.
I mean the Monster in real life.
Let me tell you what happened.
Monster was the guest of honor at a community center carnival...
Bravo...
Are the candies good? Yes...
Monster? I see you on TV all the time...
Have some candies. Thanks...
Why didn't you join the others?
They have their parents.
Almost all of my good friends have left.
I know my chance of getting adopted is quite slim.
How come no one likes me?
Well...I'm an unloved monster too.
So we share the same fate.
No...even though Captain Po always gets the better of me,
and kids want to beat me up,
but I'm resilient.
In time, they will come to love me for that.
Resilient?
That's right.
Fight darkness with cheerfulness,
resolve dispute with humor,
remove barriers with a smile, and sadness with magic...
how did you do that?
Put your unhappiness into it.
Abracadabra...
You'll have a sweet home very soon...
Your unhappiness is gone.
You're awesome, Monster!
How did you do that?
It's a secret.
But you can have my Rubik's cube.
Figure it out yourself.
Alright. Thank you.
Don't lose it.
It's done...Yeah...
Nose hair is not an accessory.
Cut it, don't admire it.
What now?
Trying to look cute?
The mirror won't make you cuter.
If it could, people would walk around with a mirror, not a phone.
What do you know?
Po... Seafood...
Why are you both here?
I need to talk to you.
And you?
I'm here to take measurements.
Isabel... Yes?
Do we have a measurement appointment?
Yes.
Please show her where. Sure.
This way.
She's talking to you.
I'll get to work then.
Hey, where's my idol?
Gone for a meeting.
You think he'd be waiting for you?
What? Very disappointed?
I have a lunch date with him.
You do? Take me along.
Take you along? Yes...
Beg me.
Come on, take me along.
I told you to beg me, not jab me.
Take me along...
Alright... Please...
Aright...yes... Please...
I'll take you along. Yeah!
You have to promise me
you won't stare at him like you just did.
It's embarrassing.
I was overjoyed from seeing my idol.
Idol? You shouldn't tag along then.
Why not?
You'll get too close.
The more you know about him, the greater the disappointment.
No way! My idol is perfect.
I want to know more about him.
Mom.
Mommy, leave me alone.
She's here?
Honey...
Honey...open the door...
How did you know I was here?
You posted it on Facebook for me to find out, right?
So have you gotten the flat back?
I won't go back to the derelict old flat again.
Don't worry. I came here,
because I have an option you can’t refuse.
Hello!
Though it's not as luxurious as The Apex,
it's a new building downtown.
And the name? Paradiso!
Isn't it grand?
It won't embarrass you in front of your friends.
The lobby is quite grand.
Still, I miss my 28A, Block 3 address.
What a coincidence.
We're checking out 28A, Block 3,
the same flat number as The Apex.
Alright...
You don't love me anymore...
Baby, listen to me. It's not what you think...
I'm sure the man has a mistress.
At his age, really... Indeed...
Mrs Po, Mr Po, hello!
My name is Gary.
Mr Po, you have the eye.
This new project is awesome.
The flats are selling like hot cakes.
Please come in.
Is this a flat? Or just a room?
Big enough for two. It really is.
Mrs Po...
How big is it?
198 sq ft.
Not even 200 sq ft.
I want a luxury flat, not a tenement house.
I can't live here!
Sorry, I've got a call.
You guys discuss it.
I'll wait for you outside. Take your time...
Po Yue, you don't love me anymore.
Honey, of course I love you.
Everything I did was for you.
I now know why the woman said her husband doesn't love her anymore.
If he did, there's no way he'd put his woman in this hell of a place.
What hell of a place?
It costs more than $3 million.
It's called Paradiso, right.
Absolutely right.
I say it should be called Gate to Hell.
It's just the size of The Apex's walk-in closet.
It can't even house me and my wardrobe.
Watching TV this close will cause shortsightedness.
We have to squint if we want to watch TV during dinner.
And there simply is no space for my long legs!
Should I fold them up?
No...no need to fold them up...
Honey, look up...
Isn't the ceiling high?
We can have custom-made platform for storage, and mirror cabinet doors,
it'll look much roomier,
and there'll be room for your 43-inch long legs.
What about the Jacuzzi?
It's not that important, is it?
A massage shower system is much more practical.
What's the advantage of a new building?
Stable water pressure!
Have you noticed?
All electrical appliances are European brands.
Most importantly, it features an electric toilet seat!
It'll be warm in winter.
It'll be really comfortable.
If you like it so much, eat on your toilet seat!
Honey, I'm just asking you to put up with it for the time being.
I've done the analysis.
Property prices are looking up in this neighborhood.
Once I've made a profit, I can trade up.
You have my word.
How long?
How long what?
How long do we have to stay here?
I promise you, we'll move within a year.
You said it.
I won't settle for less than 1,000 sq ft.
Of course not...
we may find the Apex too cheap for us...
Mommy? Fa...
Why are you here?
My hubby wants to buy Mommy a unit to rent out as her birthday present.
So I brought her here to check it out.
We walked into a show as well.
When poverty comes in the door, love flies out of the window.
Po Yue... Mommy...
Mommy, you've got it wrong.
We want to rent it out too.
I need to go, bye...
Fa, go home with me.
Mr Po...
You didn't have to be so honest and tell her the net footage.
The gross footage would do.
Honesty won't sell you any flats.
That's the legal requirement...
Hubby...
Don't pick up his calls.
Mommy, do you really want me to get divorced?
No other mother would harbor such a thought!
Your hubby...I mean, that rascal...
You didn't even tell me about the deposit fiasco.
I got you out in time,
or you may have to live in that tenement house for life.
Why do I have such a stupid daughter?
You're not like me at all.
Stop calling me stupid!
Po Yue said it's just temporary.
Did you miss that part in your eavesdropping?
Believe him to your own woe!
Have you read the gossip magazines?
Do you know what you've missed?
Missed what?
Look...this is Anson, you dated him once.
Look at his wife...she's now a regular at balls covered in diamonds.
I hope the diamonds weigh her down.
She's overweight already.
And Benson here...
He was your first love.
His wife is pregnant now.
His dad has given tens of millions to his employees to celebrate.
So generous of him!
Not just his wife, his mistresses are all pregnant too.
It's actually hundreds of millions.
You've got the figure wrong.
If you had married either instead,
you would have become a socialite too.
You're so stupid!
Stop calling me stupid!
That was ages ago, stop bringing it up.
Alright, let's talk about the present.
Dickson.
His father's group has a market value of tens of billions.
I don't know why you would dump him and picked that fund guy instead!
What fund guy?
His name is Po Yue.
He's hundreds of times better!
Fa, being a divorcee won't make you a discard.
Lots of movie stars have more than one marriage.
You'll find another man if you work hard enough.
How come you still don't get it?
No one but Po Yue will want me.
Fa...
She's a well-known model...
Fa...over here...
Sit over there...
Mommy, didn't you say lunch?
I did, and I wanted to introduce a friend to you.
This is William.
She's my eldest daughter Fiona.
Fiona, hello.
William is very thoughtful.
He has ordered you your favorite hot lemon honey.
My taste has changed to coffee.
Coffee, please. Coffee...
William is a major client of your brother-in-law's law firm.
He's very capable. He pulled himself up by his own bootstraps.
Just over 40, he now owns a major electronics factory in the mainland.
Do you like kids?
No. They're short.
Squatting down to play with them makes my legs go numb.
Maids will solve that problem.
She helped raise her two sisters.
She bathed them, fed them and changed their diapers.
How capable.
She's a model sister.
So raising kids poses no problem to her.
My business takes up most of my time,
and there's a lot of socializing.
Fiona, do you dance? No.
Don't move...
Are you wearing a wig?
Mommy, I don't feel well. Excuse me.
Fa...
William...your wig is quite genuine looking.
Sorry, I have to go too. Next time...
Fa...wait for me.
It's your second marriage...
you can’t be this picky...
It's not like when you were dating Dickson when so many guys were after you.
Mommy, I never said I wanted to remarry.
Please, don't bring that man up again!
We've broken up for ages.
Brother Dickson...
It's Dickson. Come on...
Dickson...
Hello, Auntie.
It's been a long time. Indeed.
Hello, Fiona.
Dickson, it's been a while,
you're just as good looking.
So are you, Auntie. Thanks.
What an awesome car. Is it new?
No, one of my seldom used ones.
Where are you going?
Let me give you both a ride.
How very kind of you.
We're just going home.
Get in. Sure.
I'm taking a taxi.
What's wrong with you?
Giving up a fancy car for a taxi?
Aren't they both red?
Get in. Or don't call me Mom again.
Get in.
Hey... Come on.
I've always found you the best among Fiona's boyfriends.
You have a nice personality and a great upbringing.
You're respectful to your elders.
Fiona was blind and failed to cherish you.
She married that loser instead.
Mommy, stop speaking ill of my husband.
Husband?
You've moved back.
You'll soon have nothing to do with him again.
Auntie, Anthony is a smart guy.
Fiona has a great eye.
How would she choose the wrong man?
Do you know my husband?
Yes, we've had business contact.
He didn't tell you about it?
No.
Let's not talk about him.
We all make mistakes from time to time.
Fiona is getting a divorce.
She'll be single again very soon.
Dickson, are you seeing anyone?
Just broke up.
Don't let it get to you.
She probably wasn't the one.
It's all about timing.
Sometimes love comes in a roundabout way.
Right?
Mommy, what now?
Your dad and I have a mahjong date with your aunt.
So there's no dinner this evening.
I can wait on you guys.
Dickson, would you mind having dinner with Fiona?
No problem. OK.
Bye. Bye...
Drop me off at the taxi stop in front.
Am I this hateful?
We used to be an item.
Shouldn't we be friends?
Save it!
You know what you did!
We've been seeing each other for half a year.
It's about time you brought me to see Uncle and Auntie.
It's late. They're already asleep.
I can't wait to meet them.
Just a hello.
Hey! You witch! He's my boyfriend!
Dickson is taking me for a ride in his car.
You can go.
A ride? You want a slap or what?
Just go.
You were holding me a moment ago.
Now you're holding another woman?
Cheap!
Stop playing hard to get.
I don't sleep with every woman I meet.
If I want to sleep around, I have plenty of choices.
You weren't a fling to me.
I wanted to get serious with you.
That's why I wanted you to take me to see your parents.
Is that too much of a wait?
Are you really this dumb?
You want to marry into my family?
Who do you think you are?
Take a good look of yourself first.
You never thought of marrying me?
What do you take me for?
You? Just Fiona.
Dickson...you alright?
Hi, Fiona.
Hey, who are you?
You're Fiona, the easy model.
Everyone knows you.
Do you want your family line to get cut?
Fiona? What?
You haven't heard?
What? Tell me!
Your ex-boyfriend Dickson has been telling his friends you're a paid escort.
Pay you extra and you'll go to bed as well.
Are you a man?
So we broke up.
Did you have to spread rumors about me?
Dickson's dumped you already.
Just leave him alone.
Any man with any taste would not care for someone worn and used like you.
I can get any man I want!
Really? Show us.
I had a drink too many and said something bad to my friends.
You shouldn't care about what they said.
You're fighting with your husband,
I'm sure you are quite down.
How about we go out to sea on my yacht?
Your yacht? What do you take me for?
Pull over! I want to get off!
Pull over! Do you hear me?
I want to get off!
Are you serious? Yes!
Why is the universe doing this to me?
I can't win my mother-in-law over.
What's the use of calling her?
Honey...
I don't know how to carry on...
Fiona, don't be sad.
Morning comes after darkness.
There's rainbow after a rainstorm.
Your heart opens up the road for you.
Don't forget, you are not alone.
My legs are now smooth as silk.
It's moisturizing and refreshing.
I can't help crying out: Kimochi (feels good)!
Her lips are thick as a snout. So gross!
Gross? What do you know?
Angelina Jolie has bee-stung lips.
Fiona Yu is a nobody.
She's hotter than Angelina Jolie to me.
OK, you win.
No one can speak ill of my wife!
Wah, so Fa is a star.
More like a model.
She can't compare to you.
What a sweet-talker.
Look at him. I can't take it anymore.
Let me possess him to win his wife back.
What do you think?
It's good to help people.
But Po Foon may not like it.
I'm doing his brother a favor.
He should be grateful.
I'm a bit tired today.
Let me take a good rest first.
I'm back...
What a mess!
Fei-fei, what happened?
No one here to tidy up since Uncle Foon left home.
What a mess!
Daddy, I'm hungry.
Fix me some food first.
Didn't Mommy feed you before taking you to tuition class?
Mommy had to rush back to the shop.
She bought me a bun.
Honey... Hubby.
You're home. Mommy...
Why are you still in uniform? Go change.
Come on...
Honey, that's it?
I have no more strength left.
I'm really tired.
Honey, Foon has been thrown out for days...
Correction: I didn't throw him out.
He left out of his own guilt.
Whatever.
Your anger must be gone by now.
He took care of the house these past few months,
including Fei-fei.
You wouldn't have gotten your shop were it not for him.
Shouldn't you look to the bright side as well?
Don't just dwell on his mistakes.
He has made his contributions.
You're really funny.
You always take the side of the wrongdoer
and then pass the blame to me.
That happened with Yee,
and then with Foon.
I was just telling the truth.
You can see what the house has become.
You don't want Fei-fei to survive on buns.
I can hire a domestic helper.
Outsiders aren't as trustworthy.
You and Foon are not on speaking terms.
I can ask Mom to come take care of Fei-fei.
Of course not! Don't you do that!
Where should I put her?
She may want me to wait on her instead.
Then I'll have no time at all.
You won't let Foon come back.
You won't let Mom come here.
Or you could quit and take care of Fei-fei yourself.
No way!
My shop has just gotten on track.
We can put Fei-fei in an international school now.
International school?
That's very expensive!
Let me do the math first.
Your pay can’t afford it.
Spare yourself the trouble.
There you go again.
I don't make much money,
but it's enough to feed my daughter and my wife.
What happened?
It was just a slip of the tongue.
What a temper tantrum!
A woman can’t take care of so many things.
Poor you.
I'll give you a hand.
It's cold! Can't you put something on?
Go to a park and do that!
You're scaring my customers.
No...
What's so funny?
What's so funny about me?
...and take care of my daughter...
Sorry!
Normally...oh dear...
Unfortunately, my wife died
a couple of years ago...
