with my wife
I know
When you two were having brunch
this morning, I overheard your conversation
I have a dinner date with my wife at seven
Give me the CD and I'll be outta your hair
Give me your crystals
No, Unless I'm going in with you
I don't want to see Mr. Cheung just yet
I'll deal with him when you're gone
I'll come in with my colleague
If that jerk comes in with you
His wife will be a goner
I won't
I won't
Okay, you can go in with me
But you've got to follow my lead
I had a chat with her this morning
She's a just a kid
Be nice to her, show some love
Got it
Like how you coerce your clients
into buying them crystals
You were talking about stabbing her straight
in the heart and stuff
I know what I'm doing
Positive energy
Your CD
Take it and get out
But I don't have time to take it back
Can I listen to it here?
May I check on Mrs. Cheung?
She'll live
Can't say the same about the one inside
of her though
Mrs. Cheung?
Mrs. Cheung?
The missus part irks me
Hey, Master Ho
Your wife leave you because, she's ashamed
to be the wife of a fortune-teller
No
In fact I felt ashamed first
Then go to be a shyster
I know
you were once a music teacher
No
I studied Chinese music in school
But couldn't make a living from performing
So I went to teach
No wonder you've got that loser vibe
No
Failures are necessary sometimes
You can learn from them and move on
I know what you're trying to say
Slick, aren't you?
Getting back your CD?
You wanna talk me into leaving
No
I really wanna getting back my CD
That is not gonna happen
My hair's falling out! Why?
What are you doing?
Throw me another the crystal
Be a good shot
This one is expensive, this one is not mine
Set her on fire
Come help me hold her down
Hold her down
Let me go
What are you doing?
What're you scribbling?
Red is a sick color. I hate it
Love
Love
How come it's decomposing?
Think about it
Why it's decomposing?
Why is it all rotten? Cause it ain't sincere.
That word, it ain't from the heart
So he doesn't really love me?
Why did he lie?
Why?
We're talking about men, nine out of ten are...
Well, you ain't got the time
to meet the tenth one
Mr. Cheung can't even recall scribbling
the word in your palm
I don't believe it.
That can't be true
I'm not lying to you
I just asked him outside
You knew it
You knew the truth deep down
You could feel what you had
was something rotten
All you had to do was to open your palm
and look carefully
Now it open
Everything will be all right
I've been dumped by boyfriends before, too
At the time it hurt some much I wanted to die
It was like the end of the world or something
If you ask me now
I'll tell you
I should've dumped him ages ago
You telling the truth?
It's getting dark
I want to go
If reincarnation is for real
Shouldn't I be envious of her?
She gets another chance, to start over again
You don't have to reincarnate
to start over in life
Whether you can start over again it
depends on yourself
Time to let that the douche in
and take his wife to the hospital
Woops, what time is it now?
Sorry
It's ok
Finally finish the last case
Did some good deeds today
Perfect time to retire
Thanks
Gotta go to the rest room
You two have a good chat
Ok
Ben
I listened to your CD
I feel
Wait a second
Dad
I have something to ask you
Go ahead
Did you really close the shop?
Yup. Done and closed
You're retired?
Retired
Cause you kept seeing ghosts recently?
Something like that
Figure I'll see less of them once I'm out
Awesome
It's not like that
Not awesome
In fact I know exactly what it's like
What do you mean?
What do you mean?
Look, the middle-aged man at the next table
Seems to have been burned to death
Probably doesn't even know he's dead
He doesn't
Poor you
When did you start?
I caught a cold a while back and had a fever
Enough, I get it
You must've inherited it from me
It's good stuff
Gives me tons of positive energy
Can't you feel?
The spirituality in my performance
has the feeling of ghost
I won the top prize because of that
Did you tell your mom?
Tell me what?
What is it?
Tell me!
Just tell me
Your son said
He wants to learn Chinese instrument
(Sounds of villain hitting)
Excuse me, I'm starting my business here.
Showing up so late
My son rarely comes back for dinner
That's why I'm late
Today's January 27 on the lunar calendar
And March 5 on the Western calendar
Which is the Waking of Insects in solar terms
A ferocious night!
The hitter all all over Hong Kong
arrived already
Mainland China had come
If you don't hurry, your seat will be taken
Really?
You wait for me
Yes, madam
Behave yourselves. I will be back very soon.
I want to go, too
I won't be long, OK?
Listen to your uncle's words
What's up?
Nothing
(Sounds of villain hitting)
The husband will never run away again
Done. You'll sleep very well tonight
$50. Thank you
Don't worry. Next
Sit down
No need. I'll stand for it
What's this madam's name?
Ignore the name, just hit
$50 standard charge
I beat your bloody head
Hey, can't you hit harder?
OK. Let's hit
I beat your bloody feet and you'll
never have shoes to wear again
Hey, hold on
It'd be better if you beat on the photo
Hit a photo?
How about this?
We have sets A and B, you can choose A or B
Only have $85. Did you count?
I don't count, $100 is fine
OK. That's fine, on the photo
On the photo?
He)'
Beat this one first
This one?
Oh, this is your son's wife
Beat them all
In any order, beat you all
How could it be?
A mistress is always ranked second
This is true
This woman is such a b*tch
My son totally changed after marrying her
Totally ignored me
They're now travelling again
She left my grandson alone
I won't say any more. Just beat it
Harder!
So poor
Poor what? Are you taking a side?
I'm not on any side
I'm just earning a living
I just mean your son is in the photo too
If I beat it wrong...
Give it to me.
Beat them, don't miss anyone
Beat them
Floozy, floozy
Go straight to death!
Bloody flirty b*tch
Go straight to hell!
Beat them all?
Of course, they are all accomplices
Don't miss one
OK:
I beat all your bloody mouths
so you can't kiss women any more
OK. Let's hit
Mistress, mistress
I hit you to die
He)'
Can you hit her to miscarry?
What? ls she pregnant?
The baby is innocent
I'll add $100
How about the full set for $300?
You'll make sure she won't have an heir
Oh, this will really work
Beat her
I beat your bloody breasts.
They'll burst even if they're fake
I beat your bloody stomach.
You'll vomit day by day
I beat your arms and legs.
You can't go anywhere any more...
Ox and snake ghosts, Please change my fate
Beat all the harmful guys around without mercy
Drive all the devils away
From now on, no more mistress
