There is in every one of us,
even those who seem to be most moderate,
a type of desire that is terrible,
wild, and lawless."
- Plato
How does Chum Foon-hei know where Cheung Hing is picking up the money?
I don't know. I just follow orders.
Go find out how he knew.
See if Fook Wo planted a mole inside Cheung Hing.
I don't mind checking it for you.
But I think Chui Tin-tong can find out more and faster.
Come on, Cheuk Sir didn't mean to lie to you.
You know how it is with you and Chui "I'm-tong.
So you knew too. You only lied to me.
We really didn't mean to hide it from you.
But we're worried you'll behave like this
besides Chui Tin-tong is unpredictable...
Sorry, I'm late.
Lok, relax!
Great! Let me introduce you.
We have a new member in our UC family.
Chui Tin-tong...give him a big hand.
What UC family?
You intend to marry me?
You're not welcome here, even for work.
You're Ngai Tak-shun's dog.
Pak-key is dead because of you.
I'm a UC under Ngai Tak-shun.
Why are you so pissed about a drug lord's death?
Is it possible you're his dog?
What did you say?
Hey... Don't do this!
Cheuk Sir, your UC is not very professional.
But I am.
Ngai Tak-shun gave me an order to bring Chum Foon-hei back to Hong Kong,
and take out whoever stood in my way.
But as a UC, I'm not allowed to kill.
So I used my brain and not my brawn.
I took his dope to force him to hand over Chum Foon-hei.
Then I called the Thai Police to get them arrested.
But Pak-key sorted things out with the Police and getaway.
It's not my fault he died in a oar crash.
Is that true?
You know I don't like violence.
I'm a peace lover.
That's right! Even when Smokey tried to kill him,
he let him go in the end.
Lok, I know you're still hung up on Pak-key's death.
But for a UC to get the job done,
you may be careful, but things still happened whether you like it or not.
Exactly! We're now in the same boat,
the key is to find the dirty cop who killed Lai Sir.
Set aside your personal grudge.
Fine! Only because of Lai Sir.
I'll settle with you after we finish off the dirty cop.
You better watch it!
Anytime.
Madam Cheung, you wanted to see me?
Sit down.
Well? How do you like CIB?
Getting along with the team?
I don't know what they think of me.
I feel fine.
CIB is more relaxed than HQ.
We're more like family.
Who do know best in CIB?
CIP Fong Sir of the rabbit team.
We sewed in the same precinct fresh out of cadet school.
He's also my tennis partner.
I heard you're good friends.
Ben, can I trust you?
Yes, Madam.
I want to check up on someone.
Pong Sir?
I suspect he's dirty.
No way. He would not do such a thing.
I hope so too.
But I got a tip about his contact with Cheung Hing.
Is there some mistake?
I know you're friends with him, that's why I need your help.
I want you to bug his phone.
If you can't do it,
I'll get someone else.
No, I'll do it.
Are you sure?
This is the best way to prove his innocence.
You're a good cop. I trust you can do this.
This is a secret mission, don't tell anyone.
I know.
Here's the chip. I want you to monitor his calls.
Report to me right away if there's anything fishy.
Is the blue ice selling well?
We don't have a set target,
people used different retail channels.
That's nice.
The boss is making money.
But it's very secretive.
Only Airplane, Tai-fai and Tin-tong know what's going on.
I already told you what I know.
Very well. I'll give you this month's pay.
Cops got a raise, what about informers?
Early morning shooting in Sai Kung
CIP Fong Chung-chuen shot dead on the spot.
Ben, what's so urgent that you barged in without knocking?
Sorry, Madam.
You have questions? Ask away.
I heard gunshots, why won't you let me go over there?
Fong Sir chose to meet with the Cheung Hing informer on Fook Wo turf.
He deliberately chose to meet on a boat.
No one could have traced him without the bug.
This is not a question.
Why bother to ask me anything?
You already know the answer.
I can tell you your answer is correct.
Fong Sir is not dirty, you are.
Brilliant. You didn't let me down.
Why does he have to die?
To make room for you.
You'll soon replace Fong Sir.
You found my lost gun and help me get ahead.
What do you want from me?
There's no need to ask any more questions.
If you follow my orders,
I guarantee you'll get promoted.
You complimented on my sense of justice.
You think I'd become a dirty cop?
You think I'll let you off the hook?
This is something you need to ask yourself.
You think I'll let you off the hook?
I'm soared too. You're so perfect as a cop.
There's no reason you didn't realize the gun you're using is not your own.
I know why.
Compared to being a perfect cop,
you're more concerned about keeping your perfect record.
You failed to report your lost gun,
and secretly found yourself a replacement.
Then you bugged a CIP's phone,
and Fong Sir and the informer are now dead.
What would the brass think?
Don't worry, there's no turning back for you.
But there's still hope.
You still have a bright and promising future
You can continue to be the rising star.
You're smart, you know how to choose.
Welcome, Miss Yeung.
Thanks.
Let me pour him some tea.
I came alone.
Where's your boyfriend?
I don't know if he's still my boyfriend.
Cold war?
He's mad and didn't call me for a while.
And you didn't call him either?
There's something I must do.
I can't give it up for him.
Neither would back down and we fight all the time.
I'm afraid we'll break up.
Wait...do you love him?
Yes, of course!
Good! Listen to me, call him.
So what if I love him?
There's something in this world that's more important than love.
I won't give up my principles because I love him.
I'm not asking you to do that.
Trust me, if you love each other,
you will respect the principles important to each other.
You value the things your loved one values.
If you don't see each other, you'll drift apart.
Then it'll be over.
If you want to see him, go see him.
Worry about everything else later, right?
Thank you!
Don't say that.
I should go!
Be careful! Go for it!
Can we talk?
I don't know what about.
I only know I missed you and wanted to see you.
Ben, I'm...
No, it was my fault. You did nothing wrong.
I should not force you to quit.
I'm the one who should quit.
It's OK now.
No, I'm not a good boyfriend.
I'm not even a good person.
Why do you say that?
You're a good boyfriend,
and a very good cop.
Remember why I fell for you?
What if I have done everything wrong?
What if I'm rotten to the core?
Will you leave me?
I'll accept whatever happens to you.
I'm here today because I have decided I won't give up on you so easily.
I love you and I'll love everything good and bad about you.
I don't know what happened.
But whatever it is, I'll be there for you.
Good or bad, happy or unhappy, I want to spend every moment with you.
Me too.
Don't worry, there's no turning back for you.
But there's still hope.
You still have a bright and promising future
You can continue to be the rising star.
You're smart, you know how to choose.
Follow me.
Lean against the wall. What's this?
It's not mine. Don't try to frame me, you dirty cop!
Who are you calling a dirty cop?
I'll charge you with possession of drugs.
OK...so you're not dirty. There's no need to frame me.
I'll spend years in jail.
Scared now? You're with Fook Wo.
Take this pack of blue ice to frame Chum Foon-hei.
Sergeant Tsang Bo-sing of OCT B.
Where's your boss?
What a crowd! Sorry, officers, we're closed for now.
We received a report about drugs inside the restaurant.
We need to search the premises.
This is the warrant.
Our kitchen is getting ready to serve dinner
Please hurry up.
Comb the place carefully.
Get to work. Search every corner,
the cashier, store room, office and all personal effect.
Don't leave anything unturned.
Yes, Sir!
Sir, found a tea can inside Chum Foon-hei's office.
There were no tea leaves inside,
but a pack of blue crystals, probably blue ice.
Chum Foon-hei, you have breached the Dangerous Drug Ordinance.
You are under arrest.
You are not obliged to say anything unless you wish to do so but
what you say may be put into writing and given in evidence.
Sir, there's something I want to say.
I want to know exactly which clause of the Ordinance have I breached.
Clause 4, trafficking in dangerous drug
and Clause 8 possession of dangerous drug.
Whether you're trafficking is up to the judge.
We should have 150g if not 200g right here.
I don't think it's for your personal use.
Get ready to spend the next 8 to 10 years in jail.
Hold on...
Tell your thugs to be polite.
You want us to arrest them too?
Sir, since when is pop rocks a dangerous drug?
You don't believe me? Do a quick test.
Ben Sir, negative.
I'm a law abiding citizen.
I don't know why you're so confident I'm the bad guy.
Pop rocks are actually quite good.
Would you like to share them with your colleagues at the precinct?
They're pissed about going back empty handed
What you have is hardly enough,
would you like to wait till we serve dinner?
Let's go!
You can’t even do something so simple.
I told someone Chun Foon-hei will be busted for sure.
What do you expect me to tell them now?
I only took action after
Chum Foon-hei's thug told me he planted the blue ice.
I think he did it,
I just don't know why the blue ice turned into pop rocks.
You're telling me you don't know?
I'm beginning to wonder how you became the rising star of the Force.
I'm the rising star of the Force, not dirty cops.
I have never fabricated evidence to frame anyone. I had no experience.
You're right. It's my fault.
I should take into account your inexperience
But you'll get more practice. Make sure you do better.
More practice? Doing what?
You should be grateful for more practice.
That means you can make amends.
I can always find someone else to replace you.
And you will...
Ben, I trust you can prove your worth.
Think of a way to put Chum Foon-hei away.
You and I will get the credit.
Madam, I'm not that confident.
I trust my judgment.
You're Mr. Perfect. You can do anything.
You must do the best you can.
It's too late for you to turn back now.
The cops seemed very confident.
But in the end, they found nothing.
False alarm?
I don't think so.
It's a setup.
Brother Foon-hei.
Last time we failed to intercept Cheung Hing's dirty money.
Cheung Hing won't let it slide.
Be on your toes.
I will.
The heat is on between Cheung Hing and Fook Wo.
You saved Fook Wo,
Chum Foon-hei must love you to death.
I didn't even bring up the main point.
After the cops left,
Chum Foon-hei interrogated the traitor.
He said he didn't want to do it,
but a cop framed him for possession of drugs and forced his hand.
Cheung Hing's dirty cop?
Another thing, CIB showed up with OCT B.
A joint operation is not unusual.
But the inspector from CIB was so confident.
He looked shocked to see it was carbonated candy and not blue ice.
Half the tips they receive are false.
That inspector must have encountered that before.
That's why Chum Foon-hei and I both think he's Cheung Hing's dirty cop.
What's his name?
Chu Chi-bun.
Why are you drinking so much?
Shifu?
You seldom get blasted like this. What's wrong?
Just something at work.
I heard you came up empty handed when you busted Fook Wo.
You're well informed.
Why are you so upset about this bust?
A lot of things...they add up...
Too much happened too quickly
and I realized I'm not in control.
You may not control other people,
but you can do your part
to uphold the law and serve justice.
You don't understand.
The first thing you learn at cadet school is team spirit.
You're never alone.
You can tell me.
Maybe I can help you.
You're no longer with the Force.
I can't disclose anything confidential.
You can’t help me.
I have to face this alone.
Ben! Shifu!
I need some time alone.
OK, don't drink so much.
Call me if you feel differently after you sober up.
Brother Foon-hei!
Come in, Lok! Sit down.
Chai Fing let the word out to lure that bloody cop to our warehouse.
The boys guarding the warehouse have cleared out.
Tell your boys not to go over there.
I don't want them blown to bits along with the cops.
OK!
FEHD received a complaint about a peculiar smell from a warehouse.
They smelled milk and something sour when they arrived.
Since there were gang members guarding the premises,
they called the Police.
Initial assessment was a problem with the ventilation,
and leaked the smell.
The sour smell should be from heroin.
The smell of milk should be from processing ice.
It's likely to be Fook Wo's kitchen.
Today is a joint operation between CIB and OCT B.
Even if we don't catch Chum Foon-hei in the act,
at least we can cut their supply.
Yes, Sir!
Miss Sze, you don't get dizzy from working in the car?
I usually get motion sickness,
but this is a smooth ride.
I don't even feel like I'm in a car.
Mr. Lee said he arrived at Blue Moon early.
Can you step on it?
I don't want him to wait too long.
I hope I won't stop you from working.
I know you won't.
Ben Sir calling Car B.
We agreed with OCT B to take action at 16:30.
Time check...
It's now 16:19, 10 more minutes.
Standby, everyone.
Yes, Sir!
Chum Foon-hei lured Chu Chi-bun to bust his warehouse,
so he can blow him to bits.
I'm nearby. What can I do?
Ben Sir calling everyone.
Reconfirm, take action at 16:30.
Cheuk Sir?
Hoi, you left Blue Moon suddenly while you were working the other day,
and asked for time off.
Is everything OK?
Something urgent came up at home.
I'll try not to let that affect my work.
Action!
I detonated the bomb. Zero casualty.
Hoi, take me to the waterfront.
You're not going to Blue Moon?
Just take me there. OK!
Miss Sze, what is it?
You'll catch a cold standing in the wind.
You still care about me at a time like this?
You're quite good at playing the role of a bodyguard.
Cheuk Hoi, explain to me why an ex-Police officer
would communicate with someone using a code.
Nothing can fool you.
You're a UC?
I really quit the Force, I'm not a cop.
I don't know if I qualify as a UC,
but I approached you for a reason.
You're after Victor and Cheung Hing.
Sorry, I took advantage of your trust.
What goes around, comes around.
I have no right to blame you.
You behaved appropriately as a bodyguard.
You kept your distance and didn't try to befriend me.
I won't tell Victor about you,
but I also can’t keep you.
Victor and I work closely together.
I will not betray him.
You must know the last thing I want to do
is to betray those close to me.
I will resign. I won't put you on the spot.
When I got inside your car this morning,
I didn't expect it'll be our last ride together.
You're no longer my bodyguard,
I'll take a taxi back.
Scarlett, outside of Cheung Hing,
I hope we can still be friends.
Call me if you need me.
Cheuk Sir, I'm so happy to see you.
Thanks for your help in reinstating me.
Come, sit down. The CP wants me to reinstate you,
how can I say no?
I'm curious, you know him well?
I served under him in OCTB.
He still recognizes me.
After what happened to you in Thailand,
I knew it would be hard on you.
No one can help you put everything behind.
I realized the thing I wanted to do most is to be a cop.
If you can put that behind you,
you'll become more mature.
Whatever happened to you,
consider it a long vacation.
Thank you, Sir!
You passed your psychological assessment.
You want to stay with CIB or try somewhere else?
I'll see what I can do.
I want to stay with CIB.
But I have one request.
Shumai and dumpling, one each.
That'll be $20.
I'll get it. Give me 2 boxes of rice roll and 4 orders of shumai.
Sure! Thanks.
Anything you want to ask me?
Why did you come back to work?
Remember I told you I wanted to find Cheung Hing's dirty cop?
I didn't get anywhere.
Might as well come back to work and figure out what to do next.
Why did you ask for my team?
You wanted us to work together.
I just didn't expect when I came back,
you had an extra pip on your shoulder
and I have to work under you.
They should change the setting after so many years.
They didn't even change the PIN. So lazy!
Ben Sir!
Gather around...say hello to my shifu, SIP Cheuk Sir.
Cheuk Sir!
Hello, everyone.
Big Head, Sum, Tiny Tot, Ice Cream, Cold and Luk.
What happened to Pau, Tai-yau and Lemon 7?
Transferred to other departments.
All of them?
Just so happens...
It's OK, I like to work with new colleagues.
I hope we'll hit it off.
Does anyone like rice roll? Extra sauce?
Sorry, Cheuk Sir. We already had breakfast.
No problem. I'll eat them and do a few laps.
Get back to work.
Yes, Sir!
Shifu, let's talk in my office.
Sure!
Have a seat.
Well? How does it feel to be back?
It hasn't been that long.
Nothing has changed except the new faces.
I knew with the old gang gone, you'll need to readjust.
What happened to them?
Lemon 7 finally got his wish and got onto Police Report.
Garfield likes dogs and went to the Police Dog Unit.
Donut is in G4
and Dragon Bali is in the PNC (Police Negotiation Cadre).
I knew that's where they always wanted to go.
Just didn't expect them to all leave at the same time.
Pau had a new baby and is transferred to the Marine Police,
because he's on duty once every 2 days.
Tai-yau is promoted to Sergeant and is now training with PTU.
Good! I hope they'll do well.
You don't know the team,
but they're easy to get along with.
Since you just came back,
let's start you with something light.
We have some wiretapping work,
please help us apply for permits.
That's an important task.
You're too kind to your shifu.
Here are the files. Thanks.
Start the meter. Just follow that car.
Go! Follow them.
Wait, Cheuk Sir! It's me, Luk.
I don't need the car, thanks.
Why are you following me?
You're mistaken, Cheuk Sir.
Ben Sir said you're his shifu,
I wanted to learn from you.
You want to learn from me?
Ben Sir said nothing but nice things about you.
He said you're the trump card in CIB.
I hope you'll give me the chance to learn from you.
You may, but I'm tough.
No problem. I'll do anything.
Follow me.
Memorize these.
Memorize them?
You wanted to learn from me?
These are my past cases. Memorize them.
Yes, Sir!
Master, can I help you?
I want...I can’t decide.
It's OK, let the others go first.
I'll go first.
I want set A...no, set C.
I changed my mind, I want...
I hope you're not wishy-washy about me.
Let me go first.
I want set B, curry rice, less rice but spicier sauce.
Iced lemon tea, no ice and less syrup.
I also want stronger tea.
Am I a pain?
Master can order anything.
I'll place your order now,
let me know if you need anything else.
How sweet!
And attentive. My goddess!
I hope she can be my girlfriend.
Master, can I help you?
Z cups of coffee.
That's all.
Master, your coffee.
Sit down, one is for you.
I'm sorry, Master. I have work to do.
You must love wearing a uniform.
You wore the Police uniform, now the maid uniform.
Who are you?
Sit down, Law Siu-sze.
Why should I?
No wonder people call you Screwdriver.
You're a tough cookie,
and were discharged for insubordination.
How did you know? Are you a cop?
But so what? I have done nothing wrong.
Why should I listen to you?
It was not insubordination on my part.
My boss was out of line.
Your Masters seem to be afraid of you.
Don't remind me, it still irks me.
That guy was playing with the phone
and I was blamed for it.
Tell me what happened. Maybe I can help you.
This guy called the 999 center
and claimed he was being molested.
I got into an argument with him,
the boss didn't even ask why, but put the blame on him.
He said I had poor service attitude.
I told him the Police is not in the service industry.
That was all I said and he discharged me on insubordination.
What does the Police do if they're not in the service industry?
They maintain social justice.
You have a good sense of justice.
What's the use? I was discharged.
Now I have to take on several part-time jobs.
Time's up.
Excuse me, Master!
