Lust, Caution Page #3
This isn't a rehearsal, there won't be a second chance.
Remember your own roles.
Don't say what you're not supposed to say.
You too...
They're here!
Mr. Mak, Mrs. Mak.
This is Mr. Mak's cousin, a friend from my hometown, Kuang Yumin.
This is Mr. Yee, and Mrs. Yee.
You accompany them, I'll take my leave first.
Sorry about making you drive all the way here to get me.
Old Tsao said you were familiar with Hong Kong.
If not we'd have used my husband's car.
It's no problem, it's along the way.
Mrs. Yee, do you want to visit Chung Wan?
Though we've been in Hong Kong for a few months already,
the only places we know are Chung Wan and Repulse Bay.
How about Tsim Sha Tsui then?
We can take a stroll there too.
Sure.
To Tsim Sha Tsui, Queen's Harbour.
Can you drop us off before you return to the office?
It won't matter if we make a slight detour right?
I wouldn't want to inconvenience Mr. Mak's official business.
It's a family business, it's all right.
What line are you in, Mr. Mak?
Export trading.
We also do importing.
Mrs. Yee, where you live is pretty good.
When we were looking for a house, did we look here?
It's just a rental. Once war broke out on the mainland,
we moved here hastily.
Mrs. Mak, were you born here?
I married here, my Mum's hometown is in Guangzhou.
My Mum is from Shanghai.
Then your Shanghainese must be good.
I can speak, but not well.
I've forgotten it all.
[They are speaking in Shanghainese]
My hometown is Anhui.
My Shanghainese isn't too good either.
Thanks, sorry for bothering you,
and helping me carry my stuff.
No, I should.
You're welcome, since he's my husband's cousin.
He also just arrived in Hong Kong.
We brought him along to see the sights.
What do you do in Guangzhou?
I teach, in an elementary school in the village.
As expected, you have a scholarly air.
Either a college student or a teacher.
Mrs. Yee, you have a good eye.
Didn't you see those plainclothes bodyguards?
There's no way we can make a move on him at his own place.
Whenever he goes out there're at least a few bodyguards by his side in addition to the chaffeur.
Even if we get him out there're at least three people we'll have to deal with.
We need at least two guns.
But it's still better than attacking him at home.
Be more patient, we're already on track.
Mrs. Yee has a good impression of Wong Chia Chi.
She's already arranged a second meeting.
Sorry, I'm tired.
Can I come in?
Come in.
I pressed the tailor to hurry.
Thank you.
What does Yee look like?
I only got a glimpse, he wasn't what I expected.
Our cook, he just left like that.
He didn't take anything, but the man just disappeared.
So we moved to the Ban Dao hotel.
It's already five days, and we don't dare to go back...
My husband says it isn't safe, so we need to find somewhere else to stay.
You can't trust the people here.
These Cantonese, I can't catch a word of what they're saying.
Exactly, I'm quite irritated.
Where can I find a cook,
who can whip up some decent Shanghainese dishes now?
I know there's a place in Hong Kong,
which serves decent Shanghainese food.
They have good fried shallot carp and drunken chicken.
Then bring us there!
Hey, Old Yee, Mrs. Mak just said
there's a good Shanghainese restaurant in Hong Kong.
Old Yee is a fussy eater.
He compalains no matter how good the resturant is.
Really? Which one?
It's the Zhu's, at Kowloon.
It's the main branch of the Shanghai Restaurant in Hong Kong.
I'll be back late tonight.
Don't remember we have guests tomorrow.
Good night.
We're not invited tomorrow?
He didn't tell me who the guest is.
It must be Wang Jingwei's wife, Chen Bijun.
They're forming a new government.
They sent for Old Hsiao already.
That means Mr. Yee is going to be promoted isn't he?
As she said... [the tile reads "hit (on the mark)"]
Why're you so late?
Was playing mahjong.
Sorry, I lost again.
What about Mr. Yee?
Barely saw him for a minute.
He left and didn't come back.
Hey, move aside, I'm bushed.
Hey, I killed a beer bottle.
It's already been a month.
What's so great about shooting one or two beer bottles?
To spare my Dad from doing the job.
The house, car, losing at mahjong.
Shopping for expensive stuff, buying a whore for you,
Are we here on holiday or to kill a traitor?
How many Dads do you think I have?
Wong Chia Chi needs expensive jewellery,
and you want to be a Resistance hero,
What about me? I'm a chauffeur in the day and a sentry at night.
My Dad has been asking around.
He thinks I've been fooling around in Hongkong.
He wants to break off all ties with me.
Why don't you guys think about that!
We have guns.
Why don't we kill some easy ones first?
If not school will be starting soon.
Everyone's here voluntarily.
We can't blame it all on Kuang Yumin.
I know we're in financial difficulties.
I should have planned for this.
I admit we don't have any experience.
But we committed ourselves to this.
We finally inflitrated the Yee household after so much effort.
We can't just give up now.
The guards are now familiar with me.
I'll find a chance to do it myself.
Don't worry, I'll take care of the consequences.
Don't be dumb, you think you can do it alone?
That's my problem.
My documents are in the study.
Mr. Yee.
Mrs. Mak.
The car broke down halfway. And it started raining.
Send Mrs. Mak in.
Hongkong's so humid. You can wring out water even in a handshake.
Yeah, even Shanghai isn't that bad.
I'm still not used to it even now.
Mrs. Hsiao.
I thought you wouldn't be coming because of the weather.
Why are you back?
Rain's too heavy, I changed my plans.
Mrs. Mak, Mrs. Zhu, you're here?
We're waiting for Mrs. Hsiao.
Just nice, we need one more player.
Why don't you just play for a while?
You haven't played for ages.
Mr. Yee, Mrs. Yee's getting angry.
Ok.
Mr. Yee liked the material we chose that day.
He didn't like the last one.
Is there any tailor you're familiar with?
Yes, I know of one, he's quite good.
We make our suits and dresses there.
Want to try making one there?
I'll leave it to you.
But it's the peak season now.
They're busy with tourists' requests.
Will it take a few months?
No, not that long. We're old customers anyway.
I can hurry him.
When Mr. Yee is free,
Mrs. Yee can give me a call.
Mrs. Mak, I have your phone number.
We can probably get a discount
if we make one or two more.
they don't give discounts for those.
Really?
I've won!
Your luck today is pretty good.
I didn't even realise I'd won.
The God of Fortune must have come.
Ah, Mr. Yee.
I recognised your voice.
It'll complement your face more if the collar is narrower.
Yes, a smaller collar looks better.
Shorten the sleeves a little more.
I said, you should shorten the sleeves.
It'll make you look more sprightly.
I'll leave it to you.
