tiny bit of talent left,

get over your trauma. Don't ruin yourself.

Who cares about talent? There're

talented people everywhere.

You can have it if you want.

Thanks.

50 Euros.

You want money?

Good.

Get up and get dressed.

Come.

I haven't been sketching forever...

Don't worry!

If you draw badly, people just won't pay.

Just draw a face like

human, that's enough!

Come on.

Sit down. Drop that bag.

Stay here. I'll get you some customers.

Here comes the deal. Start drawing.

She's too fat.

What?

Too fat!

This one isn't fat, OK?

What now?

Too shod!

Too HEW'-!

She's not fat, ugly or shod.

Would you start now?

No...

Are you from Mars or the Jurassic?

You think you're Picasso?

100 Euros for a sketch?

Why don't you rob the bank?

You don't draw as quickly...

or as nicely as others.

How dare you to pick customers?

You're wasting the oxygen

on earth with that attitude.

If you don't make any money today,

I won't make meals for you.

Our sisterhood is over!

OK...

I'll draw whoever for whatever price, OK?

10 Euros? Too low!

Stop whining! Or just 1 Euro!

OK, I'll sacrifice myself...

to be your first customer.

Go ahead and draw!

More handsome. OK?

10 Euros...

Very cheap. Cheap...come...

Very cheap!

Nicole, do you know that man over there?

He's been staring at you all the time.

How did you find me?

I just passed by.

You don't think I'm stalking you, right?

Legally speaking, you're my employee,

I have the right to know what

kind of side-job you have.

Bastard!

I knew this swear word by Day 3 in Paris.

Shut up! Or, I'd curse

you with 100 swear words!

You've been here for 15 years...

and all you've learnt

are smoking, swearing,

getting tattoos, dyeing hair and speeding?

No matter how badly your

dad treated your mom,

you don't have to ruin your own life.

Did he tell you the whole story?

My mom died 8 years ago,

he said he was too busy...

to show his face at the funeral.

You want me to call that jerk dad?

Tell him to screw himself!

Mr Chow told me all this in detail.

But you said it with more passion...

while he said it with more guilt.

If he doesn't care about you,

he wouldn't have bought this

wine company 8 years ago...

to file your tax return for

years for the citizenship.

Nicole! Let's go!

To conclude, it's good

to live with dignity...

without vengeance and complain.

I take back the swear word I just said.

I just happened to pass by.

Good day Sir.

Hi...

You know...

So-mei.

So-mei?

So-mei!

I don't know So-mei.

It's a big fish. So-mei.

Oh! Maybe you mean salmon?

No...So-mei.

Soulmate? So-mei!

Soulmate? What do you want?

Not soulmate. It's So-mei!

A kind of coral fish.

He thought you're looking

for a soulmate. What's that?

I'm not dead yet. You don't need

to buy a spiritual companion.

Tell him I want to buy So-mei.

Just pick any one. Frozen

fish all tastes the same.

I'll get a live one and

cook it for you one day.

When you were that small?

Yeah...

Hi, Xiao-min. Mr Lam.

2 intimate roommates

go for grocery shopping?

How sweet!

Not as sweet as the two of you.

Xiao-min you look radiant recently.

Having someone by your side

really makes a difference.

Really?

Check out my face...

do I look like I got bad luck?

No. You look fine too!

You're fine!

There's a ballroom dance class

this weekend. Open to all.

You guys want to come?

It's free.

Ballroom dance?

Come. It's fun and relaxing.

Yeah. You don't have to be

lovers to be dance partners.

OK, we're in.

I'll text you the ballroom address.

See you there on Saturday.

Sure!

Check me out! Dancing King.

Let's not hold them up any further.

Yeah...

Bye...

Dancing King? More like a Gigolo King!

I'm not going.

If you know how to dance,

you're a cook and a dancer. How charming!

I'd rather give you all

my money. I'm not going!

Who dances like that?

You should hold me from

behind when I lift my leg.

Not just a question of

rhythm, your head is broken.

You blame it on me? You

think you know your rhythm?

You kept stepping on me, I didn't

say a word. I shouldn't have come!

Yeah...I'm so wrong to drag you here.

Let me check them out.

Xiao-min, come over.

The lady on this side...separately...

The gentleman on that side.

There are etiquettes in ballroom dances.

Let me teach you the first move.

The gentleman invites first...

Bow,

like a prince.

1, 2, 3...

Thanks.

What's your name?

Marie.

David.

That's right. Keep closer.

A lot better!

Your first time here?

Yes. And you?

1,2,3

15$ %

Very good. Much better than I expected.

Let me tell you...

dancing is about 2 people with 2 heads...

pound in sync.

That's important.

I'm home.

Why are we dancing much better today?

I took precautionary

measures. Absolutely safe!

They dance much better now...

with intimate bonding.

I think they may work out.

No, no, no. Impossible!

He is...

She thinks he is...

What impossible?

Are you hiding something from me?

Dear darling,

what can I hide from you?

May I?

(Deposit for wedding dress

and tuxedo not refundable)

(Only on loan for one-day photo shoot)

(Wedding photos = Sisters' photos)

Fabulous! I like it!

So, where's the bride?

I'm coming...

Wonderful! Perfect!

You are beautiful!

Mr. and Mrs. Statue,

we're not taking a class photo.

Can you give me some

passion? Some intimacy?

OK.

OK! Very good!

Closer!

Come over here!

OK, This is the last pad.

Romantic.

A kiss.

No...No kiss...

No kiss, no perfect!

Just one kiss. A French kiss.

He wants French kiss...

Please... A kiss!

Just do it casually...

OK...

OK, slowly...

OK?

OK!

OK?

Perfect!

Henry!

Henry!

Henry!

What?

You forgot your scan'.

See you!

Why are you here?

To borrow money.

Fine. That 2,000 Euros from your

dad, you didn't get it last time.

Take it.

I need 20,000 Euros.

That much?

Men are all untrustful.

Best of luck to your colleague's

leg operation tomorrow.

Call me if you need more money

to settle his hospital bill.

I'll pay you back as soon as I can.

Don't worry. I lent you the

money on your father's behalf.

You haven't been calling him for ages.

Why don't you take this chance

to call him and say thanks?

I should thank you first.

Let's have a drink some time.

Sure.

Come on! What's wrong with you?

You don't have to.

I got to run. See you.

You got off work so late

today. Must've been a hard day.

What dessert have you eaten?

You forgot to wipe your mouth.

Smells fishy!

You spied on me?

She doesn't know you are...

OK, stop it!

I'm not comfortable sharing

my emotional life with people.

You tell me clearly.

Am I just ordinary "people" to you?

Aren't we intimate sisters?

I told you everything and now you...

Fine.

Maybe I'm too naive for friendship.

I didn't buy any food today.

Let's go out for dinner.

I'm not hungry.

Forget it then.

I was going to take you to

the Arch of Triumph Dinner.

What's the Arch of Triumph Dinner?

Get dressed.

Are you feeling cold?

I have a fear of horse carriages.
