[upbeat music]
[FC] They are the Mayday of Central.
I hear you're all quite the hotshots.
That dress. It's like...
[Olivia] Where have I seen it before?
What? It's the one I wore at last year's Christmas party.
See? The one you wore last year doesn't have a bow there.
[Sunny] She found this one at Geoff's house.
[Priscilla] You brought other women here?
What am I to you?
Who do you think you are?
[Geoff] Do you really think you're my girlfriend?
[theme music]
[theme music continues]
[all] Three, two, one, drink!
-Hurry, hurry! -Hurry, hurry!
-Come on! -One more glass to go.
[all cheer]
Great!
[cheers]
-What's wrong? -You all right?
[all clamoring]
[all jeering]
[light music]
[man 1] Are you leaving?
Yeah.
Are you free tonight?
Nope.
The day after tomorrow?
Still can't.
[man 1] So, how can I find you?
I think last night was fun...
because it was just a one-time thing.
So, I don't think there's any need to keep in touch.
Was my performance so bad?
No.
I just don't like repetition.
So for me, once I've finished a nice meal, it's over.
But yesterday, we only had the main course.
There's still dessert.
[Francis] They say fortune favors the bold.
Dessert after dinner isn't such a bad idea.
[Olivia] Hey, what's up?
Hey.
Wearing shades while eating lunch with us?
Such a movie star.
She has a hangover.
[Sunny] I completely blacked out last night.
[Olivia] Priscilla still hasn't arrived. I'm calling her.
[Annie] I already did. She didn't pick up.
Hey!
Hey, there's a couple of hotties checking me out.
You or me?
You, of course.
[Sunny] He's coming over.
-[Ivan] Hi, I'm Ivan. -Hi.
My friend Eric wants to know if you want to have drinks with us.
-[Sunny] Sure! -How come he didn't come over?
Is he mute?
[Ivan] No, he's just a little shy.
If you don't mind, I'll call him over.
-[retches] -Whoa, fuck!
[Francis] You okay?
Sorry, sorry.
Oh, wait, now I remember!
[sighs]
-Priscilla, where are you? -[cell phone chimes]
[Priscilla] I went out to buy something. You should go home.
[clicks tongue]
You should've said so sooner.
[Sunny] After I brought her home,
she said she went out to go buy something,
then told me to go home.
Yes, that's it.
You didn't really leave, did you?
You knew she had just found out that Geoff had someone else.
-[sighs] -Uh...
But Jerry and Keith wanted me to go drinking.
Nothing could've happened, right?
Let's pay up.
She might be burning coals this very minute.
[Olivia] Let's head to her place to check on her.
Check, please!
-Wait, wait, wait! -[Annie gasps]
-See if you can smell burning coals. -[Annie] Oh!
[Francis, inaudible]
-[doorbell chimes] -Priscilla?
-[Annie] Priscilla! -Priscilla.
Priscilla?
-Why isn't she responding? -There's no sign of movement.
-Call the police. -[Olivia] Good idea.
[groans]
-[Olivia] Now what? -Are you okay?
-[Sunny sighs] -I'll hold it for you.
-I have the key. -You should've pulled that out sooner!
Sorry.
Priscilla?
[Annie] Whoa.
Whoa, is she shooting a horror movie or something?
Priscilla?
Hey, maybe she's not home?
You don't need a psychologist to know that people who break up stay at home.
They don't go out shopping.
-[all gasp] -[Francis] What's wrong with you?
You didn't answer the phone or the door.
Are you all right?
[Priscilla] I'm okay.
What are you trying to do, scare us to death?
[Sunny] I'm sorry, baby. I shouldn't have just left you last night.
Sorry.
Priscilla, break-ups may induce post-traumatic stress disorder or PTSD.
The best treatment is to express your deepest feelings.
[Francis] Mm.
Do you guys think I'm a fool?
-No, baby! No, no, no! -No, no!
I do.
-Hey. -Hey!
What's wrong with you?
[whimpers]
-No. -Oh...
-You will be all right. -It's all right.
[sobbing] I think you're right!
[Priscilla sighs]
Did I go too far?
[in English] Seriously?
He's the one sleeping around.
How did you go too far?
It was my fault.
I'll punish myself!
But you know,
just because there is a dress at his house
doesn't mean he has someone else.
And I was wrong, I admit it.
-I shouldn't be going through his things. -[gasps]
-I can't. -[Olivia sighs]
-I shouldn't do that. -Okay, from a psychological perspective,
you defending Geoff
is actually you defending yourself.
When facts are not consistent with beliefs,
people will believe what they want to believe.
This is called cognitive dissonance.
Going through all this for a jerk like him,
is it worth it?
On the other hand, even though Geoff is a little selfish,
he really knew how to make her happy.
[gasps]
It's not that I'm unhappy.
It's just that I'm hungry.
Because last night, I didn't have a single bite.
[all] Macaroni soup at Sing Heung Yuen!
[Priscilla] If I always have these four bowls of that soup at my side,
is having a man really that important?
[Priscilla] I really need to eat.
-Drink up! -[cell phone chimes]
Geoff?
[in English] "Sorry."
[Sunny and Annie scoff]
Geoff actually admits he's wrong?
That's Shocking News in Central.
[Francis] Hey, what are you doing?
[sighs]
Replying to him?
[in English] Seriously?
You just barely got the upper hand.
-How could you reply so quickly? -[Annie] Mm-hm.
Then what should I do?
Put her phone away.
Once we've had a little holiday, you can reply.
Give it here.
She can't have it back until midnight, tonight.
[groans]
Okay, get changed, we're having macaroni soup!
-All right! Let's go! -[cheers]
-[phone ringing] -[approaching footsteps]
[loud thud]
Being born ugly is not a crime,
but you drew up such an ugly contract,
that if you were to die crossing the road,
I really don't think anyone else can explain it.
Sorry, Henry.
I'll be more careful crossing the street.
Please give me another chance.
I have to give you another chance?
Should I wish you good luck, too? Are we playing Monopoly?
How many contracts does this make?
Even when I knew you were gay, I still hired you.
Shouldn't you at least do a better job in return?
Actually, I'm not gay.
You're not gay and you wear shocking pink? What's that all about?
[Henry] Olivia?
Why did Olivia come up alone?
Weren't you supposed to escort her up?
-Sorry, Miss Olivia! -[Henry] All you say is you're sorry!
Go on in, I'll be right there.
Fix this and put it on my desk by 6 p.m.
In 15 minutes, wait in front of the elevator for Olivia.
Escort her down, all the way into a car.
Got that?
[man 2] Got it.
Is this your first day on the job?
[Henry] Sorry, Olivia.
Are you ready?
Spit it out, I'm in a hurry.
A coffee brand.
Three shots of the product
plus one of you drinking the coffee, in your show.
Two hundred grand.
I told you I wouldn't put this kind of nonsense in my show.
If they make a coffee-flavored lipstick, I might consider it.
You're taking one sip of coffee for two hundred grand!
Is two hundred grand a big deal? Do I drown myself for four?
Do you know why my followers like me?
Because they like how direct I am.
I've never put pointless blabber or commercials in my show.
The point is, if it has nothing to do with makeup,
I won't do it.
Olivia, if you don't do this one,
then I don't have anything else for you.
What do you mean?
For the past two months, I've been looking for sponsors non-stop.
I've hit every client, all your favorites, makeup, skincare...
But don't forget,
you've trash-talked about nine out of ten brands.
How do you expect me to have them sponsor you?
Then find one I haven't trash-talked.
Sure, there is one. They're poorer than me.
Do you want it?
Bottom line is I've checked with everyone.
There's zero, nothing.
Look at what people are saying.
"It's all the same content. The same criticisms, over and over."
"Five minutes, saw the first five minutes and got bored."
This one says you have nothing new and you're cocky.
"She doesn't answer any questions."
The thing is, there are two points.
First, your show isn't up to date.
Second, your image isn't appealing enough.
I am not going to change who I am for clicks.
Furthermore,
I'm not going to dilute my show with a bunch of gimmicks.
You're just my manager.
-How I shoot is my business. -I'm your...
I'm your manager, right?
Which means it's my job to help you analyze the market.
What I'm telling you is that people aren't interested in your directness.
I'm saying you're not fresh enough.
If you don't fix the show,
it's finished.
I put that show together all on my own!
I was in sales at Landmark before becoming an internet celebrity.
If being an internet celebrity means being miserable, I'd rather go back.
Then go back to your old job.
Don't go breaking my chair!
[Sunny speaking English] The next one might be harder, okay?
Can you help me find where the nurse is?
-Where's the nurse? -[thuds]
That was quick. Let's see.
Yay, you found the nurse! Thank you, Daisy.
Can you spell "nurse" for me, please?
N-U-R-S-E.
That's very good, but it's not "Ar-Lo." It's "R."
Can you say "R"?
"R."
Very... [retches]
Oh, look! There's a bird!
[vomiting]
[kids laughing]
Very good!
Oh, oh, the bird is gone! [clears throat]
Can you guys help me find the fireman?
-[Priscilla] As an investment banker... -[cell phone chimes]
...my mood fluctuates with the economy and is especially volatile.
However, I'm sad today, not because of the market,
but because of Geoff.
Since his apology, he hasn't contacted me for an entire week.
You could send it more than once, right?
So I didn't reply.
If you sweet-talked me more, then I would.
You didn't even mean it!
As if you're so special.
Hello, Mr. Hong.
[Mr. Hong] Are you meeting Mr. Lam tonight?
That's right.
So his company just raised five billion dollars.
-Mm. -Uh...
If he could add another 800 to a billion, it shouldn't be a problem.
I'm counting on you tonight.
Don't worry! I've prepared cigars and red wine for him.
And last night, I prepared a three-inch-thick proposal.
I think I'll be able to win him over even before the presentation.
Good! No wonder you're my best killer.
You just know how to put people to use, Mr. Hong.
[Mr. Hong] Then one billion won't be a problem.
-One billion. -[Mr. Hong] One billion.
-Mm. -[Mr. Hong] Ah.
Mr. Hong, your wife must be waiting for you to have lunch.
It's already one.
[Mr. Hong] Hey, one billion, like you promised.
-[in English] Yes, sir! -[Mr. Hong] I'm counting on you!
[Francis] Wow!
-This one is beautiful. -[Annie] Mm.
Oh, yeah, I just remembered, I met this guy a while back.
I talked with him on WhatsApp for a week or so.
We even decided to go on a date.
Then, after dinner, we would go get a room.
I had already booked the hotel!
But there was a problem I hadn't expected.
He had a wife?
It's worse than that.
[Francis] Turns out, he doesn't drink!
I was so angry, I canceled the reservation for the room.
-That's kind of trivial. -[Francis scoffs]
He doesn't drink even a little? That means he has serious problems.
It proves that he doesn't want to show his true self.
Which means he's awful. Those who don't drink are bad people.
This is the first time I've ever heard reasoning like that.
Hey, this thing's real.
[Francis] What is it?
[Annie] How weird. What is it for?
[Francis] Oh, it's a gag.
What?
[both laughing]
Hello, ladies.
I'm Xavier.
Hi.
Hello, Xavier.
Judging by how much you enjoy the work, you must love to party.
I'm hosting a private party on Friday.
I'm hoping you two might do the honor of attending.
No need to answer me now. You can think it over.
[in English] No pressure.
When the time comes, we can chat and have some drinks.
Perhaps have some fun in bed.
[in English] Excuse me?
Who's getting into bed with whom?
Ideally, it would be the three of us.
But, of course, I will respect your decision.
I'm not having a threesome
with a guy I just met in a gallery with my friend.
It sounds fun.
Francis!
The first time I saw you, I knew you were a very special girl.
My party will be unforgettable.
[Xavier] Here's the invitation. I hope to see you there.
Hey, you're not really thinking about going, are you?
He's so funny.
Even without sex, he might be nice to keep in touch with.
As if you would go and not get into bed with him.
I mean you. So will you go?
I have very different tastes in men.
Greetings, I am Max, your chef for tonight.
Tonight's pressed duck will be prepared in the traditional French way.
First, is our sterling silver, custom-made duck press from France.
[Max] We've also selected an eight-week-old wild duck
from the Rouen region.
Apart from the legs and breast,
everything else goes into the press to extract the juices.
Finally, we select aged wine and cognac to finish the sauce.
[press clattering]
[Mr. Lam] A drink.
-[Priscilla] Cheers. -[glasses clink]
Ah.
Everyone says Priscilla knows what I like.
She arranged for the pressed duck
and this wine.
-Truly outstanding! -[chuckles]
So long as you enjoyed it, Mr. Lam.
Well, thank you. Words can't convey my gratitude.
You're welcome! Thank you, Mr. Lam.
No wonder he always sings praises to me about how meticulous you are.
I ought to learn from you.
Oh, please! I should be learning from you, Sandra.
Becoming a CEO at such a young age, you are too talented.
[chuckles]
[Priscilla] Over the next few days, wherever you want to go,
or whenever you want to eat, let me know and I'll take you.
Forget it.
My skin has felt so incredibly dry lately.
[Sandra] I want to replenish. Get some moisture.
Didn't you just have a new boyfriend?
With the benefits of love, who needs cosmetics?
[both laugh]
Hey, do you have his picture? Let me have a look.
That doesn't count...
Congratulations, Sandra!
-[Priscilla] Let me see. -Oh...
[somber music]
Oh.
I know him!
He's a well-known cosmetic surgeon in Central.
[Sandra] Yes, that's right.
So, when did you meet him?
A few weeks ago.
Oh.
Hey!
Why are you so anxious about her new friend?
-Could it be-- -[chuckles]
-No, Mr. Lam. You do like to kid around. -[Sandra and Mr. Lam laugh]
I was just asking.
Be careful, Mr. Lam. Thank you!
-[Mr. Lam] Goodbye! -Thank you! Bye!
-Bye-bye! -Bye-bye, Sandra!
Look me up when you're back.
Next time, dinner is on me.
-All right. -[Sandra] Okay, bye!
Why don't you take this umbrella?
[Sandra] No need.
The hotel has umbrellas, it's quite close by.
Okay then, bye-bye! Good night!
Bye!
[engine revs]
[rain pattering]
-[glass clinks] -[wine trickles]
[somber music]
[belches]
[sobs]
Miss, are you all right?
Could I bring you a glass of water?
-Men! -Miss?
-[whimpers] -Miss?
-Miss! Miss! -[Priscilla wails]
Boss!
One of the guests got drunk and Andy can't handle her!
-[Priscilla] Men! -[Andy] Stop!
-[yelling] -[Andy screams]
-Miss, you've had too much. -Let go of me!
-Calm down. -Let go of me!
[groaning]
-[Priscilla grunting] -[Max groans]
[yells]
Let go of me!
-Let go of me! -[screams]
-[grunts] -[squeals]
[Priscilla sobs]
Pass me the towel.
[Priscilla groans]
Where are her friends?
[waitress] I don't know.
I couldn't find them. They must have left.
All right, go back to what you were doing. I've got this.
Okay. Got it, boss.
[somber music]
[Priscilla whimpers]
Try to calm down.
I'll go get a glass of water.
[birds chirping]
[groaning]
[sighs]
Oh, you're awake.
Go wash up and have breakfast.
This ginseng tea counteracts alcohol. Let it cool before you drink.
Okay.
If you don't mind my asking, who are you?
I'm Max. I own this restaurant.
Oh.
Max.
Uh, can I ask what happened yesterday?
Because I don't quite remember.
Yesterday, you got drunk in my restaurant,
assaulted my employee, and smashed a few things.
[Priscilla] Damn it.
I went into Hulk-mode again.
[gasps]
[Priscilla] Please tell me I didn't bite you.
I'm fine, but my employee got hurt pretty bad.
His face is bruised up.
I'm so sorry!
So you came back early to have me pay up?
I didn't come back early. I haven't left since last night.
How could I relax, knowing that a girl is sleeping here alone?
I don't get why you're so nice to me.
Because I know...
what it's like to like someone who doesn't return your feelings.
[Max] I don't know the kind of relationship you are in,
but I do know that even though a man might hurt you,
he must not disappoint you.
Actually, all of Central knows
that he isn't serious with anyone.
[Priscilla] And yet I...
I still did everything for him, unconditionally.
I thought that might be able to change him.
[scoffs]
It serves me right.
I was with my last girlfriend for five years.
We had broken up during those five years.
[Max] In that time, many women were after me,
but I only wanted to marry her.
In the end, she still chose not to be with me.
Which of us would you say had it worse?
I found another woman's dress at his house.
She sent me a selfie.
From the mirror in the photo,
I saw another man lying on the bed.
He hasn't contacted me in a week.
She's contacted me.
But there is no way I can forgive her.
He said he never saw me as his girlfriend.
Then you have it worse.
The worst is that even now, the only thing in my head is him!
[in English] Shit!
♪ I'll lend you my ears when you mourn ♪
♪ I'll lend you my shoulders to cry on ♪
Sorry, it's my phone's alarm clock.
That song...
[Priscilla] When God closes a door, he always leaves a window open.
And the view from that window
was even more beautiful than anything that I had ever seen.
PICKUP
I think I won't really care about the person I met
in this type of place.
When a girl gets hit on, they actually...
It doesn't matter if he's ugly or good-looking.
They'll secretly feel pleased.
Because that means that they're still attractive.
But I'll still look at his appearance.
If he's good-looking, I would give him my phone number.
Those who talk frivolously,
I hate those types of people the most.
Those who are clueless, you know, right?
What? Do you think you're good-looking?
I don't think so.
Some people's intentions are obvious, they'll come over and say,
"I'll buy you a drink, and you'll have to give me your phone number."
There are those with bad pickup lines and are bad at picking up girls.
Then I'll ask him, "Why don't I buy you a drink?"
That way, they'll leave.
It's fine if they're good-looking.
If they are the perverted ones, I just ignore them.
Reality is harsh, right?
Yeah, it's fine if he's a good-looking guy.
At least you're decent and smart.
If those who never groom themselves approach...
I don't like the foreigners in Hong Kong.
They think they're...
They think they're tall, good-looking, and smart.
Just because they're from another country, they think they're all superior.
And that they can take advantage of Chinese ladies whenever they want.
Yeah, it's because of the perception
that a lot of Chinese ladies are prostitutes.
I'm not sure why. Is it because of movies?
Anyway, they think Chinese ladies are cheap.
Especially the older generation.
