I believe in love...
between Ka-ka and Kei-kei. Morning! Breakfast is ready. So hospitable? Possessed in the sea of clouds? You don't deserve any nice treatment. I can save it. No way. I can't stand you. If it is possible, let me love again... Why so bubbly? She netted you? Don't use such gross words. Oh, you netted her. Be cultivated. It's mutual appreciation. We've just met,
but have we been to bed? Insult Ka-ka again and I'll break your back. Touch my back again and I'll break...
your bank Ka
-ka? Ka... Sis. What? Am I not welcome? Hi. It looks good. Stop! No eggs for you. A sprained back means special diet. You! No eggs, no beef, no fried or sour stuff
for him before his back gets well. Only light and plain food. So plain congee for a month! Wonderful! You didn't come early in the morning
to talk about my breakfast, right? We signed a lease. No rent increase or lease termination
in the first year. Take it easy. I am here to offer you a rent deduction. What's wrong with you siblings?
Neither of you are normal this morning. Do you have terminal illness? Leave my forehead alone! I hereby announce that I've given up
the house on Bowen Road. I got back full possession of Robert Chu
Detective Agency. What's wrong with you? The house is worth ten million dollars more. How could you get the math wrong? As if I didn't know. That rascal threatened to take away
the agency. I didn't want to lose Daddy's
life-long effort. I had to agree to his demand. Because he got your number. Where
are you going to live? Good news! I am moving back here. What? Just two bedrooms here! Either of you will move to the rooftop.
He who moves will pay less. I am exempted as I've suffered
a job related injury, right? Hang on...so it means me? No way! A man and a woman alone together
will end in a sin. Don't worry. I'll set up six locks and put on
seven pairs of shorts for protection. She's the prey. It's not convenient for Mexico to go
up and down with his sprained back. I can take care of him aft
er I move in. Something tells me I should see myself out. Hey... Take your time. You alright?
I'm fine. Have some water. Let me. Feel free to go. The rooftop thing is still open
for discussion. Come on, your injury was aggravated
because of me. I do feel how well you treat me. I should reciprocate that,
as an employer or otherwise. Mak Sir! Mak Sir? It was how the trouble began back then. What have I done? I've got this very potent medicinal wine. Let me rub your back with it. No, thanks...
Come
on... She doesn't hold back at all!
Is it just an excuse to... Actually I've been to a bonesetter. I've largely...almost...fully got well. Don't be shy. We used to walk the same beat. We were seen as the Condor Lovers
and were the envy of others. Do you remember you once pulled
a groin muscle? I gave you a massage. You said it felt so good you wished
it wouldn't go away. I let you massage my groin? You held my hand and asked me
to stay the night. I remember it now. You do? I have a case to foll
ow up with Kill. I can't be late or she'll yell at me! Take it easy. You need to take these few days off
for your injury. No, the case comes first. Finish your breakfast and go, I'll now go get changed. Don't follow me. Let me give you a rub inside. Freeze! How very shy. So feeding stray cats was the reason behind
the target's coming home late, and the money was spent on cat food. It's just a misunderstanding. It wouldn't have happened if the family
had had better communication. And money for hi
ring us
could have been saved. We'll starve if no one comes to us. Let me see you home. No. What? Yes or no? I said no. You hard of hearing? I thought I got it wrong. Don't tell me you want to go back
to the office for OT. You aren't that hard working. It's still early. I mean to go to the garage to get the
vehicle examination report with you. You have a sprained back,
shouldn't you go home for more rest? I probably will be put under
house arrest once I get back. Hello? Hello? Brother Mexico? Un
cle Tong, he... Take your time...what about Uncle Tong? I am so scared...I don't know what to do... OK...I am on my way. It's hard to hail a cab at this hour. Take me to Tai Tam New Village. What? Tai Tam New Village? Yes. Tai Tam New Village.
Hard of hearing again? It's 6 pm, I am about to clock off. Taking you there and back,
counting traffic jam... It means OT without pay for me. You'll drive. You tell Sis Na. You pay for the gas. What? How can you walk out on me? How can I drive with a sprai
ned back? $500. Be my driver for two hours. A deal. Who gave you this call?
You loss $500 for that? Don't you care. Just drive. What a view! Make it less bumpy next time, alright? Really that bad? All stiffened...my back only. Since you gave me $500... Hop on. This? Don't worry. I am a pro. You will get there safe and sound. Are you sure? Easy... OK. Here we are. Choi... Brother Mexico... How's Uncle Tong? I don't know...It's terrifying... You go take a look... What to do?
Easy
... Uncle Tong...wake up... Uncle Tong... What are you doing? I am having a nap! You alright? Why? You seemed to have passed out, so... Silly! It's drowsiness from
the flu herbal tea. What about your red forehead? What's wrong with my forehead? I am sorry. I thought he had passed out, so I rubbed his forehead with
this medicated oil. It's an antiseptic. I thought it's medicated oil. Uncle Tong, I am sorry. A red forehead! Red for good fortune. Uncle Tong, I am so sorry. You gav
e no response, just like Mom when she died. I was so scared... Sweetie, it's alright. Don't cry. Go get Uncle Tong a wet towel. Thank you. It's so windy. You should have
closed the window. Don't catch a cold. The towel here.
Thank you. Come on, Let's wipe it off. Brother Mexico, could you fix it for me? I dropped it and broke it. Let me give it a try. Done. Cool! Uncle Tong, look! Brother Mexico fixed it for me. Right. You two stay for dinner. Sure... No, thanks. You don't mean t
o drive me home? $500 is for one way. I pushed you here already. Sometimes home cooking is better
than that of a 3-star restaurant. Right, Uncle Tong? Miss, what's your name? Answer him. Call me Kill. Kiu. Your girlfriend?
No! Wife? Brother Mexico, are you married? Hey, then you have to be careful
with your back. A sprained back makes a man inactive. Uncle Tong, we are just colleagues. Colleagues? Yes. Call me next time you don't feel well. Herbal tea may not do. Get it? Ar
e you lecturing me? I've not lived my life in vain. You aren't my son. Why should you care? Why? I count on you for delicious meals. That's true. You are a gourmet. Now I am hungry. Hungry? Yes. Let me fix you something. What do you have? Let me see...Fish, pork and greens. Sister Kiu, are you a private eye too? You must know a lot of things. No, just driving and fixing
electrical goods. How smart of you. Can you fix this for me? It's a cassette player. Quite old.
How did you ge
t it? Mom gave it to me. It used to put me to sleep. But I broke it some time ago. I have not had a good sleep since. I can give it a try. But you have to give me some time. Great...Thank you. We can listen to it together afterwards. Sure. Oh, I remember it now. I need to get Uncle Tong choy sum
and tomatoes. You go with me. Have you been living here for long? Yes, for quite some time. My pa died when I was seven. My mom was a janitor. She then married Uncle Fatso. He was a rascal. He beat us al
l the time. She moved here with me after
getting into a fight with Uncle Fatso. A truck killed her that time
she went grocery shopping. Granny is all I have got since. I am a janitor too. I can support myself and Granny. You are so brave and sweet.
You are a much better girl than I am. Mom said "Don't do any bad things
and you'll live happily." I am happy. I have a job. I can take care of Granny and Uncle Tong. I have Brother Mexico to play with me. How come Brother Mexico and
Uncle Tong are so
close? I don't know. That time he fixed Uncle Tong's
rattan chair for him, I asked him if it was for making it up
to Uncle Tong, he said it was not. But I can tell there's something
between them. He's so good to Uncle Tong. Whatever he had done, it's forgiven. Uncle Tong has no children? He has a son, Skinny. Uncle Tong said he's a bad son. He has not been seen for a long time. Have you ever met him? No. It has been a long time
since Uncle Tong last saw him. Kwok Sir... Choi... Kwok Sir is very
nice. Kwok Sir... Look... Are you here to see us? Look, a lot of choy sum. The rice is in the cooker. What else can I do? Dinner will soon be ready. No more peanuts! Uncle Tong... Uncle Tong, see who's here! You are... He's Kwok Sir. He has been here many times.
Don't you remember? A cop, stationed in Tai Tam Tuk Reservoir.
Am I right? No. I am Kwok Sir of the The Kei Lun Club. Look. Oh, yes. He's a social worker. He's very nice. He comes to see us all the tim
e. Kwok Sir, he's Brother Mexico. How very kind of you. My pleasure. Uncle Tong, how's your flu? I've had herbal tea for flu.
It's almost gone. That's good. Still, the flu can't be taken lightly. Let me take you to the clinic
for a shot tomorrow. Don't worry. You can pay
for it with your health care voucher. A shot? No way! Last time I had a shot,
my bottom hurt for several days. Don't worry, it won't hurt this time. I got mine on my arm,
it didn't hurt at all. Look. You have a scar here...you a
re Skinny! How can he be Skinny? Uncle Tong's son? Rascal, you left me behind! You never came back to see me! I've got to kill you! Uncle Tong, calm down... Stop it! Don't hit him... How can he be your son? He has this scar. How can I not recognise my son? He got it when he was small. A dog had just given birth. I told him not to touch the puppies. He wouldn't listen and
so he got bitten by the mother. Why didn't you come back to see me? Calm down... It's my fault. I am sorry, Pa. It's your faul
t! You left me without saying a word. Now you came back just as you pleased. This is not a hotel. Go away! Pa, I am sorry. I promise I'll turn a new leaf. Give me another chance. Pa, I am sorry. Uncle Tong, Brother Skinny knows he's wrong. Don't be mad at him. Pa, I am sorry. Please forgive me. I'll change. Pa... Have you eaten? Skinny, come on over. Yes, Pa. I have some good stuff to show you. These old 500 dollar notes
are hard to find now. This is our family heirloom. (Sheung-yee's Cookbook)
Do you remember you used to love
minced meat patty very much? I do. Mom would make it for me. Your mom left us this cookbook. You can have it now. Uncle Tong, you once told me it's the only
copy of Sheung-yee's Cookbook How can you give it away? I am not giving it away. I am passing it to my son. It's the only thing your wife left you. If it's handed over to your son, then you'll have nothing to remember her by You are right. Pa, he's right. It means so much to you. You should keep it. I promise
you, I'll come back for dinner
whenever I have time. Good... It's getting late. Just go to bed. Mexico... Yes? I'm seeing Choi home. You wait for me here. Sis Kiu is very nice.
Is she? Brother Mexico, you will come to
see me again very soon, right? Of course. I'll miss you. Bye... Bye. Kwok Sir, bye.
Bye. Sis Kiu, let's go. Please sit. Care for some? After you. Who are you to Uncle Tong? It's my question too. I have known Uncle Tong for quite some time I've never met you.
Do you mean to take advantage
of his senile dementia? You have known him for a long time? You don't look like a friend. Pardon me for being blunt. You are after something. Yes, his love. I don't have to tell you about
our relationship. But I can tell you this: I'll never harm him. I hope you won't either. Sorry. Call it my professional bias. I am sorry if I didn't sound very friendly. I have been a social worker for so long, I have seen too many cases of old people
getting conned. I'm just worri
ed about Uncle Tong. So you admit you are not his son. I am not. He was so worked up.
It could affect his health. So I played along. Really, parents are parents. Though he has no nice words for his son,
Uncle Tong still misses him. If playing his son could make
him happy, why not? All parents love their children. Pity Uncle Tong, he can't recognise
his son anymore. If you really are a friend,
come visit him more often. Elderly people living alone are lonely. It helps to have someone around
when
he's not feeling well. I'll come whenever I have the time. Skinny... Coming. Come visit him whenever you can. Hey, can we go now? I am the one waiting here! What took you so long to get me
a glass of water? It's getting windy. Put it on. Come on. Are you alright? Let me give you a hand. No, thanks. Things got weirder and weirder
after you got the call. You only have food in mind, never people. Yet it's obvious you care for Uncle Tong. See how marked your reaction was
when Kwok Sir ad
mitted to be his son. What actually is Uncle Tong to you? Playing the sleuth? You weren't this analytical at work. You were always very cool. What made you so nosy today? Let me guess. You are Skinny. Hey, it hurts! Doing me a favour doesn't mean
you can be nosy. Just drive. Sit tight, Skinny. Just shut up... Help... Be quiet... Kei, shouldn't we keep it low-key? No! It's monumental. How can we keep it low-key? We have to fill them with envy and jealousy Just play along. Ka-ka, let
me take your right side. Why? I want to be your Mr Right. Bill Kei, Mrs Yiu called to ask how investigation is going with
her husband's affair. Call her back ASAP. Hello? Robert Chu Detective Agency... Poor her. Cataract at her age... Ka-ka, do you want to put on my jacket?
Or you will catch a cold. Don't bother. I don't feel cold at all. But the strong wind may blow
away your heart. Stop giving me the goose-bumps. Ka-ka... Where have all the people gone? Daddy, I am taking you back where it
onc
e fell to the Smart Detective Agency. The pest was finally chased out. You are not mad at me anymore, right? Today is Robert Chu Detective
Agency's Liberation Day. Is the portrait meant for the hearse? Are you possessed? You are giving me the creeps. Poor her! She's totally off her rocker. A conjuring or what? You are moving out today.
Please take everything with you. Very quietly I take my leave, as quietly as I first came. Not even a blade of grass or a feather
will I take away... I'll leave y
ou the scraps. Don't miss me. Off with your stinky paw! Daddy sorry. You left these behind in the house
on Bowen Road. Take these eyesores back. I hope they will bring you back the memories
of your long gone youth and relationships. Pity a menopausal woman with no companion. Oh, this is our new card. We are moving to the Wind Tower in Central.
It's the tallest building there. Outside the glass curtain wall is
a most gorgeous seaview. Feel free to pour your damsel... sorry, I mean spinster heart
to me. My door is always open for you. Never ever! I feel so rejuvenated after our separation. I am in bloom. Right, pretty as flowers that grow
in graveyards. What graveyards? I am like cherry-blossoms in the park. Mexico. Yes? Do you agree?
What? You can bend backward. So your back is fully recovered. Thanks to the rub I gave him... to the rhythm of Unchanged Melody. Oh my love, my darling, I've hungered for your rub... Romance De... Amor... He is a man with a spine
and vigor. A certain man here has resorted
to quacks for Viagra. What are you talking about? Boss, are you alright? Mr Ko, you were once my boss. A miracle doctor in Sham Shui Po
is known for treating impotency. I have a formula for you. Chives, onion, leek and yam. Swallow them together, whole. You'll take others' breath away
the following day. I have a formula for you too. A woman a guy goes after must be gentle, tender, pretty and sweet. This woman gets only one right: pretty minus the "r",
petty! Bro, enjoy. Let's go, girls.
Yes, Boss. Don't let the door hit you on the way out. Good riddance. Go in peace. Sis Na, Mexico, you two sure know
how to keep a secret. Will you give us your blessing? Of course. Touch wood! I'd share this best actor award with you all Do I have Tony Leung's eyes or what? It's just acting? Their acting was so poor. You can tell they did it to spite that jerk See? Hey, stop it! The jerk's gone.
Come out of character. It's a happy day. let's celebrate it
with
French food. Great...let's go together. No. You are the most important person to me It's just you and me. You made me come to life again. Calm down. I mean Robert Chu has come to life again. Sis Na, he's not too fat for your palate? Sometimes it's good to be blind. It'll be great if you two are an item again. What's wrong with you all? Ka-ka and I are supposed to be
the hero and heroine. I now announce we are dating. It's the beginning of a timeless love story Show some response. Have you all ha
d Botox shots? Friend, is this enough? It's just dating, not giving birth. Strictly speaking, it's a tragedy. Indeed. Are you jinxed or what? What made you pick this jerk? They do remind me of a movie. Beauty and the Beast. Am I really that bad? Why did you ask if you already knew
the answer? Don't worry. To me, you are better looking
than Kenneth Ma. Kenneth who? That extra... Detective Pineapple Bun, you will be back. Come on... I don't think you have the appetite. Which one suits me more? Pin
ky lady or Snow White? Why not both? I'd say neither. You suit me the most. Please, you two add up to a hundred years. Your sis can't wait to eat me up. You don't have to wait long. A bit of ironing to do and we're off
for a candlelight dinner. Ka-ka? Your place right away? I am on my way. Are you leaving? Your sis will devour me. It doesn't concern me. You bumped me off to the rooftop. Enjoy yourself. I'll go get changed. Hey... My appetite's gone. It's heavy. Let me. Thank you.
I really should thank you for coming
over to be my porter. It's my pleasure. Super Sleuth Bill Kei moves them all. What an oily tongue. Sit down. How's your rooftop room? Poor me. It's hot and it leaks. The air-con is not working. It's far from being warm and cozy. Is it warm here? Very warm. It'll get warmer with a roommate. A roommate? That's why I asked you to help. Is it OK with you? OK. But there's just one bed here. I am thinking of bunking. I don't think it's a problem. No if it's
not a problem for you. Maybe we are moving too fast? Why? It's quite common overseas. It can be faster if the need arises. I do have the need for it. You do? You are sweaty. You need a shower. Yes, shower and be clean. I go take my shower. It won't take long. Wait for me Not a moment too soon. Janice, welcome. We have cleaned up for you. Ka-ka, I am so sorry for the trouble. None at all. You are moving in here? Yes, who else? Janice got evicted. She'll be staying here for some time. Am I gettin
g in your way? No. He approves of that. Just make yourself at home. Stay as long as you like. Kei-kei, what about your shower? I don't think so. The need's gone. I gotta go. So soon? See you tomorrow. Bye. I brought you cakes. You really love desserts. You can have so much at this hour. Dessert is like air to me,
I can't live without it. What about a personality test? Alright. From the choice of cake to the choice
for love. See what you like. A. Brownie, B. Red Velvet,
C. New York Cheesecake and
D. Angel Cake. Angel cake, D. It says you are loyal to love. Once you make your pick, it's for life. So Bill Kei is the love of your life? I don't know. We have just started. Observation needed. Right. You have to try all sorts before you
can find your favourite cake. It's my first time being so close
with a man. So he's your first love? I am not sure. It's either "yes" or "no".
How come you aren't sure? I had an accident, and a part
of my memory was lost. I've had flashbacks of sweet memories
with a guy lately. Bill Kei and I have yet to find him. So it's a lost love. You remember I once said I was trying to get back the taste of
the Norwegian Forest Cake? We share a similar fate. Take it easy. The memory will come back. It's late. I'll do the dishes. Then we go to bed. Thank you. Sis May, it has been some time. I missed your cakes. Don't worry. You are our number one fan. I've set aside one of each for you. Thank you. Ka-ka, I have found you finally. Janice, you were trained as a pa
stry chef
in Paris College. You can make your pick of five-star hotels. But I love your philosophy. You want to cheer people up with desserts. It's what I want to do too. I don't mind the pay. Please give me the chance. Alright. I have had it planned. Ka-ka and I will first go to the peak
to see the sea of clouds. Then I'll declare my love. Any recommendations? This way please. Hello? Wah, are you free tomorrow? I have this urge to see the sea of clouds. What's wrong with you?
Why come back so s
oon? I am sorry. My plan failed. I am so sorry. Why are we in Sham Shui Po?
For pork liver noodles? To help me find components
for Choi's cassette player. They aren't edible. Hungry? Yes. See the public lavatory in front? Eat to your fill inside. What a potty mouth. Still, I appreciate your care for Choi. The player came from her mom. I should try my best to fix it for her. You know about kinship. You and Uncle Tong are so close. People would think you are father and son. We don't
look alike. What father and son? That's true. You two don't look
alike at all. The problem lies with the drive belt. After a while, it wears out. That affects the rotation speed
or the rotation itself. Just like your brain. So it's the belt. Just tighten the belt. Cheapo. Second to you. You are so cheeky. I wonder if it comes from your pa. Mention that rascal to your death. Stop it! My back has just gotten well. Then shut up. Are you done? I am hungry. Stop it!
You stop it... Hear me out... Sis
Kill...
What now? Your pa. Listen to me...witch... You heard me, right? Hey, do you hear me? I see a storm gathering in Sham Shui Po... What's wrong with you? Pa, Mom, you two can talk it over... I worked hard for the money... Hey! What's wrong with you? How could you hit me right away? Beware of the wrath of Heaven! Are you human or not? How could you rob Mom of her money? I robbed her? Are you mad? I saw it with my own eyes. You just won't change. We had a peaceful life the 3 months
you were
not around. I wish you could be locked up for life! You set me up. I'd let it go. Now you're trying to frame me? Alright, I'll put up with you. Witch, say something. Give way. Kiu, you got him wrong. He was trying to give me money.
I refused to take it. What about the pieces on the floor? I dropped the glass of water meant for Pa. I came home to find myself treated
like a suspect. Yes, I did the wrong thing. But I was put behind bars for 3 months. I have already paid for it. I meant to give your
mom some money. Money? Let me see. More than a hundred dollars! How very generous of you. What now? It's not about the amount. It's the heart that counts. It's the money I made in prison.
I saved it all up. What about you? You closed down Shum Wing Kee. Your mom has to work as a dishwasher. You call yourself the head of the family? Kiu has found a job. She is now a private detective. She has to work around the clock. So I went to work as a dish washer
to ease her lot. How capable! I got sneered
at once I was released, that Shum Wing Kee has gone belly up and
the lady boss has become a dish washer. I can't hold my head high in Sham Shui Po. Then don't bother. What's so shameful about having a job? Mom does it for the family. Unlike you. Cut it out... Wing, we started out from scratch. I don't mind working hard. Right, we can build another
Shum Wing Kee from scratch again. I have all of my limbs intact. I won't ask you for money again. Rest assured, once I have money, you can quit
the d
ishwasher job. How very kind of you. We are tired of your promises. Not asking for money? Who paid the loan shark for you? We did. What... Cut it out. Have faith in your pa. He has learnt his lesson. He'll turn a new leaf. Now that Pa is back,
our family is whole again. Let me sweep the floor and then
get some cold cuts for dinner. Pa, have some tea. You are my loving son. Trust me, I have changed. I'll find a job. I'll give you a treat when I have money. Thank you. This is the largest grey good
s
distribution centre in town. The 6/F deals in baby formula. The cans are taken to Sheung Shui
to grey goods runners and then taken over to Shenzhen. It's said they all work for a Brother Mo. He pays handsomely. These people here make quite a lot. I grew up on this Japanese baby formula. It has been popular for 30 years. My wife left me. I raised up my daughter on my own. I bought her sanitary napkins
for her first period. Shoo... It's hard to be a father and a mother. How careless... Do you wa
nt to work or not? Till next time. The two housewives are bargain hunters. They said the supermarket next block
has the best prices in town. We are here to investigate
counterfeit baby formula. Stay close. Faster...go in... Your pa... Uncle Wing, you have worked the whole day. Take a break.
OK. So he really has changed? It's hard to bear. Not as hard to bear as your pa's lot. He only has three cheap buns
after a hard day's work, That's far from enough for me. Not everyone is a food incinerator
l
ike you are. I have a treat for you. You do? Fists for feast.
