Excellent!

Full marks!

Hello.

The three of you watch carefully now.

Don't blame me for never cooking

these past 30 years.

Blame your father.

He was such a great chef!

- She cooks?!

- For keeping me out of the kitchen.

Look.

This... and that...

and those are all prepared by me.

Your mom didn't order any take-out.

Do bless this meal, old man!

True happiness is in fact quite simple.

When I was away, knowing that

your father was also thinking of me...

That's true happiness!

So, my three silly girls,

get out there and find your true happiness.

No matter where you are in the world...

No...

I should say,

no matter which planet you are on.

Mom will always be thinking of you!

I miss you, my babies!

I miss you too, Mom!

First day, first meal, right on time!

Bon apptit!

The ISS Command Center has advanced

tomorrow's satellite launch to 08:30.

We have to revise our rundown.

Disruption test at 20:10.

You'll adjust the solar panels

You know, one in five astronauts

has a strong reaction

to their first meal in space.

We should focus on eating.

Correction:
It's one in 6.35 astronauts.

Your information may not be reliable.

Needs empirical knowledge.

I hear you broke up again?

You don't have to be so nervous!

I'm only worried about liquid

entering the equipment.

A drop or two won't kill anything.

Who told you?

Best if it's not true.

Breaking up in December is so ruthless!

Is there a rule?

A Space Safety Provision?

No, it's the Peace on Earth Regulation!

What's your glorious theory? Tell me.

December, January and February

have the most holidays.

Once separated,

you'll open presents alone at Christmas.

Countdown to New Year's alone.

Spend the Lunar New Year

tormented by friends and family,

asking when are you getting married.

Finally, you'll spend

Valentine's Day eating

a "lover's set" all by yourself

because that's the only thing

on the restaurant menu.

So don't you think this is really cruel?

Then why did you break up

with me in December?

You broke up with me!

December 20th, 2001. 18:50 hours.

I got your e-mail.

YOU wanted the break up.

YOU were so nasty!

It was raining cats and dogs that day.

I waited three hours for Miss Huang

and she never showed up!

My! It was a sunny day, Mr. Chan!

Would you mind re-checking

the weather report?

Go ahead.

- Honey?

- I'm not your honey!

Don't get angry.

Your body will short-circuit.

It was you who broke up with me.

It was you! You!

- You!

- You!

Liar! You are!!!

Oh, I'm sorry, Miss Huang.

Have you forgotten

that we're in outer space?!

Calm down!

Keep calm!

Doesn't it hurt?

How have you been?

I was fired again.

What for?

The cash from that customer

was just too dirty.

I really couldn't take it.

Still afraid of germs?

I'm actually a lot better now.

You're still in denial.

As part of the behavioral therapy,

we set up cameras around your home.

Here's the result. Look.

You were wiping the windows...

Seems to me you're getting worse.

Since 7 years ago, when your boyfriend...

He conned me!

He said he'd marry me,

and then he took

all my money from the bank

and ran away with another woman!

I understand.

That's just the first step.

That's only the first step?

I've already forgotten

everything about him,

and it's only the first step?

The problem isn't with him.

- It's with you.

- Me?

Molysmophobia is like

your safe house from love.

If you don't open

the doors wide and step out,

you'll never overcome your illness.

How?

L-O-V-E, love again.

No, I don't want...

How long has it been

since you said "I love you" to someone?

Say it after me.

"I love you."

I... love... you.

Brilliant! Say it loud!

- I love you.

- Like you really mean it! "I love you!"

- I love you!

- LOUDER! "I love you!"

I love you! "I love you!"

I love you!!!

See you next week.

Holy moly! What's with all this trash?!

Whoa, it's heavy!

Don't force yourself, Dad. Take it easy!

No problem. Ever since the operation,

I've been stronger than a tiger!

You gotta take a break. Let me do it!

Oh, no!

What's wrong?

That's your mom's favorite singer.

She hasn't performed here

in over a decade,

and I forgot to book tickets.

I'm so dead!

Dad...

did Mom ever resent you

for being a garbage man?

Our first kiss was in the garbage truck!

Relationship problems?

Relationship problems are like toothaches.

They linger.

So, okay, look.

Next time,

before the date, the movie,

the holding of hands, the kissing,

I'll just tell her that I'm a garbage man.

Then we won't waste each other's time.

Congratulations, you've got it!

Excuse me. Table for one. Please.

Do you mind sharing?

- No.

- Yes.

Hi, can I take your order?

Fish and chips.

And... anything to drink with that?

Ice tea.

No ice?

Me too.

Okay.

Thanks.

So you're Chinese?

Me too.

Sorry,

I'll get them to clean it up.

No! Their towels are even dirtier!

International Health Regulations state that

a dishwasher's temperature

must be high enough

to effectively kill germs.

Otherwise, there's no point to washing.

You know it?

Otherwise, there'd be salmonella,

and you may get food poisoning.

What's wrong?

Food on my face?

Do you have time to go to

a movie with me tonight?

Sounds good!

Good idea... but we've just met.

Then let me introduce myself first.

Wait! Sorry...

I promised myself that I'd tell a date

what I do for a living before we go out.

Wait! Let me guess!

You're in the art world?

A collector... Artwork collector?

Old stuff that people don't want...

I collect.

Antiques?!

No...

I got it!

Since you're so familiar

with the International Health Regulations,

you must be a specialist

collecting bioenvironmental data.

Glad to know you!

I'm... a garbage collector.

Nice meeting you!

Wait!

Wait! Listen to me...

Your body language speaks for you!

But I'm very proud to be a garbage man!

- Listen to me. I...

- See you!

No, never!

Wait!

Nominations for the Worst Actress are:

Zhang Qianqian, Yang Lifang,

and Peony Huang.

Let's watch Peony Huang's performance.

Seven Star Fists!

Peony Huang is Worst Actress!

Let's welcome Peony Huang.

Peony Huang! We love you!

Thank you.

Thank you, everyone, for spurring me on.

I, Peony Huang, promise that,

I definitely won't receive

this award next year.

Absolutely not!

"Full Moon in Paris"

starts shooting in two weeks.

Uncle Hua, just drive.

I can't. We're boxed in!

I must work as a waitress in a caf

for the next two weeks.

What?

What role do I play in

"Full Moon in Paris"?

A caf waitress.

Exactly. I have to experience

the feeling of being a waitress myself!

Since I was 13,

my everyday schedule is make-up,

photo shoots, film shoots,

plane rides, and ribbon cuttings.

I've never even taken a public bus ride.

I have no idea about the life

of a normal person,

yet I have to play one.

- I really do think I'm terrible!

- Peony...

Anyway, I don't care.

I'm going to go undercover

at a caf for two weeks!
