- They definitely went in.

- I saw them go in.

No-one's been in here but us.

Move aside.

Move aside!

- If you don't believe me, go search.

- Damn!

If you say no-one's gone in there,

how can I not believe you?

Okay. If you do see them,

please notify me.

Let's go!

- It's all right now. Don't be afraid.

- Thank you. Thank you.

- Thank you for saving our lives.

- Not at all.

- Father.

- Bring medicine.

- Did those creeps beat you up?

- Yes, sir.

Help him up.

She fell in herself. It wasn't me.

Hey!

What are you doing here?

Why haven't you gone home?

Master, my home is in Dong Guan.

Let me follow you. I'll be your maid.

Father.

Good deeds are not done

when you want to do them.

There is a time

and there is a place.

The poor can't fight the rich and

the rich can't fight the government.

You believe

you've helped this girl.

In fact,

your help has made it worse for her.

Master,

I don't want to cause you any trouble.

I'd better... I'd better

just go back to Master Wa.

I can't allow you to be fed to the lions

and not do anything.

It's too dangerous

to let you go right now.

Where does Mr. Faat live?

Take these kids away!

I don't know!

I'm going to smack you!

Where does Mr Faat live?

- You're hurting me!

- Do you know or not?

Let me go!

- Let's leave!

- Where can you go?

I have a friend

you can stay with for now.

"NO.1 BEEF NOODLES"

So that's what happened.

I'm sorry to trouble you. I really am.

That's all right.

In today's world

people have to help each other.

Don't worry. Stay here for now.

Wait till your leg's healed.

If your son has no school to go to,

he can help out around here.

- Thank you so much.

- That's okay.

- Master, time to get up.

- Don't bother me.

- Hey!

- Don't bother me.

Give them back.

- What?

- Master, your father says to get up.

What did you call me?

Master?

Master?!

Master!

What are you doing?

Dr Sun Yat-Sen wants equality,

so no pigtails.

I don't want there to be servants

and masters in the world.

"Master"?! "Master"!

Why do you believe

you're lower than anybody else?

I won't next time, Mast...

- What do I call you?

- Yuk-Su.

Master Yuk-Su?

It's Yuk-Su. Not Master Yuk-Su.

Do you understand?

- Yuk-Su?

- That's it.

- I'll get you water to wash your face.

- Okay.

Hey!

She loves to serve!

Honourable Sir, I've decided

you're my teacher. I'll be just like you.

You'll teach me kung fu so I can help

the weak and serve the people.

- What are you saying?

- Father!

Go and help Master Yat. Remember

to burn incense for your late mother.

Okay.

- Good morning, Master Yat.

- Morning. So, you've been expelled?

That's true. No more school.

Uncle Wing told me all about it.

If you've really been expelled,

stay here and help me cook.

Start by collecting

the water from over the hill.

It's so heavy!

Let me do it for you.

I'm used to this kind of heavy work.

Okay. I'll let you help me.

I'm going out.

- Hey, where are you going?

- To J.P.'s place.

- "J" what?

- J.P.'s place. You don't know him.

That big French guy

that helped us last night.

- Are you sure you can?

- Why not?

- Because I'll get into trouble.

- Look...

Say nothing and no-one will know.

Get the water, then hide the bucket.

And if anybody asks you where I am,

what do you say?

You say I've gone to get the water.

I'm gone.

"Ba..."? What "Ba"?

Students, the lesson that I want to

teach you today is...

...the relationship between muscle

and strength. Now...

This is called muscle.

What's this muscle called?

- The "Mouse".

- Yeah, the "Mouse".

Wrong.

It's called a "bicep". Bicep.

What's going on? What's happening?

- You again?

- Yeah, Honourable French Man.

I really look up to you.

Take me as a student.

I've only 2 dollars.

Take it as a deposit.

That's not enough. It won't do.

These students paid 100 dollars.

And you pay only 2 dollars?

It's not fair to them, is it?

I'll pay my way to make up for it.

I can wash towels.

I'll mop the floor. Anything.

Take me in.

I'll take you in

so you can work as you study.

- You're in. Okay?

- Thank you, Honourable Sir.

Oh, yes. Take this first.

Now, students,

you know about the biceps.

Yes.

Hey, come here.

Students, these two

are quite similar in size, right?

Right.

But do you know their respective

muscles are quite different.

- What's the difference, Sir?

- Look.

This here is the abdominal muscle.

Now, this is blubber.

Fat and flabby. Soft as blubber.

These are fat cells.

- He's got no strength!

- That's it?

Are you okay?

Students...

This is muscle against fat.

When faced with strength,

the most obvious difference is...

Strength! It's very important!

If I can pack 500Ib in one punch...

- Bravo!

- That's great!

Students.

If each of you can pack 100Ib

and punch five times,

that's 100 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1

and once more,

- how much is that?

- 100.

Right. So my 500Ib punch

can beat all of you.

One punch of yours, even five

punches, may not knock me down.

So how can we get you to do

a 500Ib punch?

One or two muscles won't do it.

You have to use all your muscles.

Wow! That's great!

The Chinese are called the sick men

of East Asia. Why?

Bad nutrition. Eating rice every day

which bloats the belly.

If you don't eat enough meat,

of course you're under-nourished.

You look at those foreigners.

They're all huge.

And the reason is,

with every meal they eat meat.

So, if you want to have good nutrition,

you must eat meat.

Also. The Chinese overcook

vegetables and lose all the vitamins.

Look what the foreigners eat.

- What is it?

- Salad?

- Yuk-Su, have you finished?

- Yeah. These are the last buckets.

Must have been hard for you,

working night and day.

- Hard work never killed anyone.

- You've fetched buckets all day.

How many do you think you did?

Huh?

How many?

- Maybe eight to ten.

- So that's one every hour.

No, no. 30 buckets.

One bucket every 20 minutes.

That was quick!

Hey, tank...

Are you having me on?

Ordinarily you hold

eight to ten buckets.

Now someone's here,

you hold 30 to 40?

- Are you elastic?

- There's no need to berate me.

Today I went out to help a friend.

He was being bullied.

Yesterday you saved a maid

and today you helped a friend.

- You're a good lad.

- That's right.

To fight injustice and save people

is my goal in life.

- I really admire that.

- Thanks.

- Master Yat, it's dinner time.

- Let's go and eat, then.

Yuk-Su, what does

your friend look like?

Really fat, he's got small eyes,

a snout of a nose and talks a lot.

Fatty Hing is really fat, huh?

- Father.

- Where have you been?

I've just explained to Master Yat.

How Fatty Hing was being bullied

and I had to help him.

That's why I'm so late.

- Fatty Hing. When did you get here?

- Half a day ago.

Here's your meal.

Just look at yourself.

If you don't start behaving,

how are you going to

face your late mother?

Yuk-Su, I'm going now.

About your drawings.

I'll get them tomorrow.
