Police??

He married someone

Her father was a drug-lord

He had killed a cop to

cover his in-law, and was jailed

After he got out, he killed himself with a gun

Did he? Where?

That's enough! And stop looking for him

He's long dead. No more

Now you're grown up, get married

Get someone to share the rest of your life

Come on

Now I've told you everything

You have to put it behind. Promise me

Are you resident here?

No. I'm for Mrs Lam

This is a privileged area

Have you got your permit?

I'm her boyfriend. Haven't got a permit

I have an appointment

- Hello.

- Hi

- She's waiting for you downstairs.

- Thanks

Hi

Sorry

I fell asleep. Didn't feel very well

- A massage would heal.

- Fine

You have good hands. You do it often

This is the spot for headache

Where's your husband?

He's doing business in China

A factory-owner?

He's done shoe-making and jeans,

now he's in mining

He's got a mistress, right?

How do you know?

You wouldn't have got me otherwise, would you?

He's keeping a masseuse in Hunan

It's not a fair world

Men can mess around, why not women?

That means you're messing up with me

You're not serious either, are you?

Remember?

A bad haircut is two people's shame

Since I touched your hair that evening,

my piece of silver has been

addicted to your tenderness

Serendipity, right?

Do you mean it?

Mom, I'm going to Phuket with my classmates

Oh, sorry morn

What a lucky generation

Your son?

Andrew.

A big lad, right?

Born with a silver spoon in his mouth

Living in a big house. I envy him

He's just finished his IB

He'll soon go to university in Toronto

- Toronto?

- Yes

It's been my dream to live there

Well?

My dad was poor. He couldn't afford it

All my friends ended up In Britain or Canada

Life is short. Once a dream's gone,

Life becomes dull

But you're still young

What can I hope for?

But I'm just a worker

Work hard, and you'll get it

What a clichm

Row hard, you'll get to the shore

No you won't. The world's fooled us

We all had dreams

I'm sure you once had one:

You'd meet your Mr Right

You'd get married, then a sweet family

He said he would love nobody else

And now? Just like a dream, wasn't it?

What if I say you float my boat?

And would you one day shore me up?

What has become of Peking Opera?

So many Peking Opera artistes perished in the 60s

That was the Cultural Revolution,

which destroyed all good tastes

The Red Guards and the burning of books

It was the Reign of Terror

It's now a remote episode

But if we choose to be forgetful,

History will repeat itself

Hi Linda. Nice to meet you again

Welcome for body check. Would you come upstairs?

We have some new products for you

Our new brand this year: Angel Touch

We have different sizes and colours.

Your body's well kept

You have all the beauty and wealth in the world

But I believe women want one thing

What's that?

Romance. You don't have that yet

A man who can change his fate is

always charming

That's all that I ever want to

do since I was a child

To do something incredible

Change the world

What do you want to change?

Not yet. But one day I will

You're working in an international bank.

You'll go to Shanghai

Hot cash, cheap labour, rich and poor,

You are part of globalization

What could you change?

Yes

You are right, I can't change the world

But can we change us?

Thank you. Thank you

Welcome to our new salon

Congratulations Linda

Shall we get a discount

from your new salon?

Definitely

Then we won't keep going back to

the same place in Jockey Club

Oh just stop cashing in

Shing's skill is to die for. He's the chef here

So this is your partner?

Yup. This would make him stay

I gave him some shares

Linda is the boss, I'm at her service

But you're together

You're a boss. Just perform. You'll make it

Besides his hands, your golden boy's so humble

What a treasure

Where did you get him? You have good taste

Sniff around for us

Then come often with our alumni

You'll pick a good-looking boy among our staff

Not another Filipino

I prefer Shanghai guys

Definitely

Excuse me

Andrew, take care of aunties

Hey, master. I've got a problem with my hair,

It's a bit dry. What do you think?

I'd suggest some colour treatment first

Can I be your first customer?

My first month is fully booked

My card. Call my secretary

Your secretary?

Thanks

(It's my birthday tomorrow)

Your mom's brain looks fine

But her lymph cancer is spreading

And it means?

Her days are numbered, I'm afraid

Come in

What can I do for you?

How much?

US$1,800

Don't you take a shower first?

Wait

What are you thinking?

Hello

She's my mother

I beg your pardon?

In hospital. I'll come over

What's happened?

My mother's in hospital again

Go to see her

No, keep it

Hey, just wait

How are you feeling morn?

Here you are

Nice to see you

Who is this lady?

My student

No, we've been together for a while

Snowy is my name

So you are in love

Yup. He's been keeping it quiet

That's why I don't see you often

I've been looking around for dad

Give me a break, would you?

I've told you. He was a cop

He shot a colleague before blowing his head off

Haven't I told you?

OK, stay calm

And your name is

Snowy

Snowy

Please keep this, Snowy

What a lovely amber

It's a million years old

I'm like the insect inside for these years,

frozen and locked up forever

Don't say that

You can fly out, if you tell me the whole truth

Forget it. You'd take care of

my son, wouldn't you?

Yes

She's rather weak.

- Visiting time's over.

- Thanks

Take a sleep. We'll be with you soon

Shampooing. Lesson one

Never splash water on your customer's face

Didn't I tell you? Handle your towel properly

Hey. Be serious

Mixed vegetables and gingered chickens

We had so many

VIPs here

Chris Patten, Hillary Clinton

Even Obama for next year

Who is Chris Patten?

Our last governor.

Now people are so forgetful

Your chic? She's pretty

Watch over

You don't look in the mood

You've been searching for days

I have friends in the police.

Still not a clue

They might not want to tell

I know them well. They won't fool around

Then your mom must have hidden something

She's deluding herself

She's been holding so much from me

She must know the truth

There must be something

She wants to tell but she couldn't

I've seen a pic of dad in uniform

He'd sent it to morn

That means he was really a cop

You've got to find him, right?

One learns wisdom at a dining table

from his father at home

As a kid

my dining table had

always been empty

- I got it.

- What?

A cop murder must be big news

Let's check out some newspaper archives

Go to a city library. Eat up

Here it is!

(Mid-night murder)

(at police station)

Policeman shot

colleague against bullies

He turned himself in

(Police murder on trial)

The gun was missing

We know more now, right? Professor Chan

Where's he after his release?

He should have nowhere to go

after his release
