It's Household Genie!

Weather changes in an

instant, people don't.

An advice from the Household Genie

Always bring a hanger

and with a twist, and more twist...

Add a plastic bag, wear it like this...

Now who's afraid of rain?

Even better, a hanger is

also useful for plumbage

and massage

But I'll save that till we meet again!

"Willow keeps us company

in the springtime breeze."

"Love grows, love tangle"

Mom was brilliant, but as for me...

A bit to the left, left...

Not to the right...

Pray tell, which one is your left hand?

The one you wear your watch.

Where are you going?

To get my watch.

"I can only hope one day you will know..."

"How much I love you dear."

Next is special news

Due to popular demand

squid at Pot King is sold out today

Take note that squid is

sold out at Pot King.

Cut

Thank you, Chief.

Mom, I want chicken.

It's all on the menu, see what you want.

I want... chicken and chicken.

What chicken and chicken?

Here, you see, chicken and chicken.

You bloody idiot!

You can't have two dishes of chicken.

I can't? But chicken and chicken look good.

Make up your mind, the

left one or the right.

Where are you going?

To get my watch!

Black sheep

Why are you playing dead?

No more than a snake playing dead.

Ha, I say, this's the climate

for a pot of mutton.

I say, this's the climate

for a bowl of snake soup.

I believe if mom was educated

she'd well be awarded a Nobel prize.

Relentlessly, she tried her best

to offer me the opportunity

to learn the tricks of life

But then

Somehow I just managed to muddle things up.

It's Household Genie!

Take a hanger and work

it like this, add a book

Now your kids can read with a straight back

Me and mom, we love Household Genie best

But your mom is Household Genie!

No way! The Genie is a man

and mom is a woman

But I saw your mom wearing the Genie mask

with my own eyes

Mom is really Household Genie?

Aiya! And I always thought mom was a woman

Mom had a way of righting things

While I always did wrong

As you can imagine

It wasn't easy for her to

put me on the right track

Please, how did your mom smart you up?

Well... how should I put it?

Come on, just tell it as it was.

Right! Tell!

OK, I'll tell whatever comes to mind

But I don't guarantee that'd make sense

Hurray!

Our beloved Dr. Chen the Senior is dead.

The historically admired grandmaster

Dr. Chen the Senior, is dead.

From now on

the public hospital is your bet.

Because Dr. Chen the Senior is dead.

Having a cough? Go visit Dr. Ng the Senior

He is alive and kicking

Come on

Cut the price

The next stall is cheaper

One summer

mom designed an educational programme

Tailored to my needs

Turn around, once more...

you gained weight again

Kick and flip back

57 lbs no less.

Do a 180 degree rotation

Badass had fishball again

after school, right?

Hand... the other one.

Didn't wash hands after toilet

Do a 360 degree rotation.

Protein ratio 47

Head stand! Badass, only two dollars left

Now, the badmouth tactics.

Shoo!

Stuff at the vege stall is no good

Stuff at the vege stall is no good

How so?

Huh?

Nah, better not badmouthing people!

Nah, better not badmouthing people!

Mrs. Mak, you going home or what?

Drop us at the market

I need to practise with the badass

Come on, sell it

Come on, sell it

It's not fresh. Cut the

loss and we all go home.

It's not fresh. Cut the

loss and we all go home.

The two of you're really something.

You're closing. Cut the loss.

Mom, how much we saved today?

One dollar for the pea,

20 cents for the vege.

The fish guy was no good,

1.8 dollar for the chicken wing.

All in all, three dollars.

What, that little?

Little? A dollar a day

And it'd be enough for

the Pot King in a year.

Wow! Hurray!

Mom, what if we save 3 dollars a day?

3 dollars a day and we'd have a buffet.

Wow! Buffet with oysters,

sushi, roast beef and dessert

With discounts for kids!

Now, don't start.

RICH!

Shopping for your mom, Dull?

Right. Stuff at the fish stall is no good.

How so?

Nah, better not badmouthing people!

You're a well-trained son.

Next is local news.

Help me with this... what're you writing?

Oh right, mom... Are you a woman?

Of course, you idiot.

But Santa Claus is a man?

Huh? Right!

Good. I'm writing my wish

list to Santa Claus.

What's on your list?

A cam.

What cam?

A cam the TV station use.

I want to shoot something

but Chief wouldn't let me near it.

Now one mustn't be greedy.

Leave something for the old

guy for the graveyard.

But isn't Santa Claus very rich?

Rich! Working at a rotten TV station.

What?

Say, mom will get you one.

Really!

A walking cam.

Let your eyes be the lens. Watch...

Are you focused? Now zoom in,

and give us a pan shot.

Good. Now we do a 70

30 profile. Now track...

Don't I look great?

Close-up... more...

Slitty eyes, slitty eyes...

Now fade to black... great. Cut!

Imagination. That was my

mom's gift to me. Imagination.

Now what? Stay still and go to sleep.

Watching a playback... oops!

Are you ok?

That was in my programme

Sleep diagonally and you get more space.

They have some theory for that

Pythagorean theorem.

More spacious, you're right.

Mom, you're the best.

Right. The best and look where it gets me.

I need you to be the best.

But I'm so not the best

Now go to sleep. There's work tomorrow.

Off, walking cam!

Where's the off button?

Here.

As our baby grows up

It's no good telling him off face to face

We can write down our teaching

On a paper...

Fold it up, like this, bundle it.

Kiddo, you want dumpling?

Today we'll prepare The

Meaty Vege Composite.

Take the cow stomach and

turn it into bamboo fungus.

And sea cucumber becomes mushroom.

Transform the material and

make it look like something

it isn't. Smart, huh?

Egg white is disguised as bean curd,

while this is actually fish.

Oyster sauce for final touch...

Voila! Your Meaty Vege Composite!

Kiddo, come try if the

vege dish doesn't taste great!

Vege dish actually tastes great!

With a very meaty touch!

Now you'll eat more vege

dishes and no complain!

Deal.

But then...

One day when the baby discovers

there's no meaty touch in a vege dish...

What happens?

When that day comes, it'd be

time for them to trick us

Now, tune in for next episode.

The Road to Fortune with

Your Baby's Virgin hand!

Be sure don't miss it!

"Lonely night, lonely

light, a breeze comes by."

"An unmarried late-teenager

gasps at the youth."

"Some youth he is, delicate and dashing."

"My heart plays a tune but

am hesitant to approach."

Question, what is a Virgin Hand?

Oh... something related

to the Virgin of Fortune.

You mean another branch of Boy Scout.

I'm a Boy Scout.

I once practiced Virgin Fist.

Awesome.

And I know Tiger Paw!

But I've eaten a spring chicken.

I've eaten five.

I've eaten 700.

Detective, was there spring

chicken at Pot King?

Well, yes...

Please, can I have their

reservation number?

5171777. But Pot King closed down.
