The night watchman said...

two cops went up to your place last night.

It's nothing. They're my friends.

Friend?

Uncle Wong

A few days ago a girl moved in, right?

I think it's the Sth floor

Is that right?

Hard luck, my boy.

She's right upstairs from you.

Stay out of her way. She's dangerous.

That day she moved in.

I watched her quarrel with the movers.

Said she wasn't going to tip them

and well she didn't.

Said they scratched her piano.

Those movers were big guys,

yet she wasn't afraid of them or anything.

So you see, she's tough and not good for you.

But you know that?

I just have the right girl for you.

Remember Mrs. Cheng from 8A?

She has a daughter her personality...

and her looks...

Some other day, Uncle Wong.

I got to go.

So what do you say?

I have to set up an appointment.

Good morning Uncle Wong.

Hi! Mrs. Cheng.

A quiet evening, isn't it?

That b*tch!

May be she got run over by a car

and is now lying in the hospital.

You're so mean.

You dig her!

I what?

So there was antagonism in the beginning...

You wanted to do each other in

but in the middle of it...

You read too many cheap fictions.

Your brains are turning into Jell-O.

People actually buy these books?

What can I say?

And women actually fall for guys like you.

Now what do you say to that?

Did I ever send them flowers

call them on the phone

or pick them up from work.

That's what I say

this world is a twisted place.

Not a bad paint job on the grille, I say.

Nice shot

I'm going home now to play the piano.

If you can't stand my music, stay away.

Bye

Looks like I'd be looking for another place.

Scared?

She wants to play

but I'm not biting the bait. We'll see.

Hey, Fatty

The name's Faye

as in Faye Wong.

Does it matter?

I'm looking for a restaurant...

That has a good atmosphere

and not too expensive.

What do you recommend?

Sun Chiu Kee

Sun Chiu Kee?

The one in Causeway Bay

It has a fountain a statue of Venus.

Magnificent lighting

and French toasts are only $18.

So? Want to go out with me, huh?

Are you gay?

Just because I'm not interested

in dating you?

He's got a nice dick.

What?

I mean his jacket. It's a Dic-K-N-Y.

Sharp eyes you got.

You look at other people

other people look at you.

What is it this time?

Don't blame me.

It's her.

Miss...

Try not to take a shower

and cook at the same time.

People may die

It's lucky we didn't douse

your apartment

it could have been ruined.

Now go on upstairs,

open the windows and air the apartment.

It'll be okay.

Air the apartment, understand?

It's lucky that I found out in time.

At first I thought sh*t

she's going to kill me.

That's really taking it a bit far.

Miss, can I have you identity card please?

How could she get it in all that smoke?

You wouldn't even have time

to put on your underwear.

Stay away from all those people

Mr. Chan? I'm Mrs. Cheng from 8A.

This is my daughter.

Uncle Wong, the watchman

said the people in 4B are really nice.

Come visit us when you have time.

And make yourself at home.

It's going to take ages to clean up

No, I think this charcoal black

looks pretty cool.

It stinks

Ah, instant noodles. I'm famished!

But how are we going to cook them?

Let's come down to my place.

I don't know you very well

What're you talking about?

After what we went through?

Oh, it's a new jacket.

Damn!

It's okay. I'll wash it for you.

Chan Kar-Fu

Mok Man-Yee

Third movement:

YAU MUK-YAN and MOK MAN-YEE

Chan Kar-Fu

Chan Kar-Fu

Hey, wake up.

Don't you have to go to work?

Are you ill? Do you have a temperature?

Shut up!

Want me to call in sick for you?

There's a tonsillitis epidemic going on.

Let me have a look.

You should see a doctor

Do you want congee?

What kind do you like?

You a**hole! I'll kill you.

Look at you. So violent.

The fever has made you demonic.

I never saw anything like that.

Look

People will think it's a hickey

I don't know lions are into S & M

They're just like you

I want to get some cigarettes

Why are you so violent?

Now you know what noise pollution is.

Well? Go!

Your piano's wacky

like you.

No wonder you never sound right.

Chan Kar-Fu knows how to tune a piano.

Your flatmate?

He's a professional.

That prig?

He's really cute.

You just don't know him.

He's better than you anyway.

At least he has a job.

A novelist by profession

and a horse gambler by moonlight.

I'm awfully busy.

Now leave. You're bothering me.

I don't want to

Your piano it's making eyes at me.

Oh really?

The piano is feminine in French.

That makes it a woman.

All women make eyes at me.

Don't patronize me.

The piano is masculine in French.

Je suis tres occupee!

Is that French again?

Oui. It means I'm awfully busy.

I don't have time this evening.

Something I say all the time.

Well then go on, leave

Get lose, go away!

Hey relax. Let's do a duet.

What is it? Are you so ill that

you've lost all appetite?

Don't waste food.

Why're you so hungry this early?

What did you do last night?

That's for me to know and you to find out.

Picked the quinella for Race 3

paid over $3,000.

What injustice!

This world is really twisted!

Sh*t. It's guys like us that

make guys like you look good

so useful and so practical.

Which means you won't be looking for a job?

I will, after the racing season.

In any case you won't be

working today, is that right?

Give me a break!

A lot of struggling artists have patrons.

Van Gogh has his brother and I have you.

When I become a novelist rich and famous...

I'll save you a big room

in my mansion on Red Hill Peninsula.

You, a novelist?

You haven't produced one single page.

Nag nag nag.

You're becoming more and more

like my mother. Nag nag nag!

Talk talk talk.

You have enough saliva to make tea.

By the way that b*tch upstairs...

asked me out this weekend.

That b*tch upstairs?

Sure. She's the b*tch upstairs

and you're the tortoise downstairs.

I thought you didn't dig her.

Not so fast.

We're only going out.

For how long?

I'll call quits when I'm tired.

It won't go on all day.

I'm asking every time

you pick up a new chick

how long does the relationship last?

Word like "pick up" and "chicks"

They don't exist in my lexicon.

So, you want to go?

No.

No?

Mok Man-Yee, I kiss you!

Yau Muk-Yan watch your mouth!

Let us kiss Chan Kar-Fu!

Good

Chan Kar-Fu, I kiss you!

I've lost my voice from all the shouting

Got a throaty?

No

What about cough syrup?

No

American ginseng?

No

Chinese flu medicine?

No

You're so cruel

I'm going to pass some of

this sore throat on to you

Remember me?

Moore...

Demi Moore!

You're so nasty!

What? I'm Bruce Wills!

A minute ago there was not one customer

Look what's happening now

That's groupie behavior

Have you known him for long?

Not much longer than you.

Tell me about him. No, better not.

I don't want it to go back to him...

to make him think I want him.

Which means you really want him

In any case,

the guys I want are all the same
