The Journey Page #4

You're looking for the

singer Low Boon Cheng?

He normally travels to

overseas during Chinese New Year.

He won't be back until

the Lantern Festival.

How could somebody not stay home during

Chinese New Year? This is ridiculous.

Can you please pass

this invitation to him?

How troublesome!

You can just place it at his doorstep,

he will collect it when he gets back.

Please hand over to him.

Oh dear, so troublesome.

Fine, ok.

Thank you.

I have lost my wallet.

Therefore I have no driver's license.

That means I cannot ride the motorbike.

Do you understand?

What now?

Are you sure you can

handle a bike this big?

Hey, you coming?

Ok.

Hey is your back any better?

Khor Soon Choy, you still recognize me?

I am Goh Chee Chuan, the one

sitting behind the class monitor.

Hey, Mr Ox.

Aren't you dead? I thought you were dead?

Where did you hear it from?

I heard from someone,

it's good to see you alive.

Many people passed away, my

wife died long time ago too.

So did Ah Lim, the one

who likes to play accordion.

I heard that he suffered from

breast cancer and passed away.

Ah Lim suffered from breast cancer?

He passed away so soon?

I was thinking to travel to

Perlis to pass him the invitation.

Who knows.

It's too late.

Who's that?

That's my

son-in-law.

Hi.

My name is Benji.

I can speak English you know?

I was top in class.

I was given an honorary

degree in Engineering.

I am an Engineer, and so is my son.

This is your invitation.

This is my only daughter.

You have to come.

Hey!

Everything is going to be ok.

What happened?

Uncle Khor, it's alright, just calm down.

Excuse me, it's now his rest time.

What happened to him?

I heard that he is over demanding

with his son's school performance.

And caused his son to commit suicide.

Every time he thinks about his son.

Not being able to build

his own family and career.

He would behave like this.

Sorry?

His son took his own life.

Khor Soon Choy.

Don't forget to attend the dinner.

Please open the door!

Where the hell has he

been, not answering the door.

I'm Inspector Rashidi.

I'm CID Law Shiau Pyng.

We got information that there

is prostitution going on here.

Please cooperate.

I'm just sleeping here.

What have I done wrong?

Sir, please show me your IC.

Sir, I have not committed any crime.

I'm just sleeping here, what did I do?

It's ok, just follow the line.

Those are bad guys, just arrest them.

Please let me go, I'm old.

How am I capable of such thing?

Capable or not, please follow

us to the police station.

Get in, sir.

Please let me go, sir.

Shut up.

No, I don't want to go!

She seems very reluctant to leave.

Why don't you let her stay.

It's for her own good, just go.

I don't want to go.

Where were you last night?

It was you who offered me the

chicken head, giving me the bad luck.

It's embarassing being locked

up for the whole night at my age.

I don't understand.

Cut the crap.

Bring me to get some new clothes.

I'm going to shower with pomelo

leaves, wash away my bad luck.

Where's you motorbike?

No mate, we've upgraded, you see.

Did you steal someone's car?

No, no, no. It's ours,

I've got the key right here.

Where's your motorbike?

No, no, no, motorbike is gone.

Sold.

So this is going to be more comfortable.

Better for your back, not sore.

I don't have a car license though.

No license, that's fine.

Because I've got my license back.

I've got my wallet. Come.

Old car is hard to handle.

Drive it slowly.

Uncle, 15 bucks well-spent,

look how handsome you are now.

What a bad luck.

How could you meet Fatimah

wearing this? Let's go.

Uncle, one for him?

Let me show you.

This is the trendiest, green colour.

I want this.

This?

This is even trendier, blue colour.

The Hollywood stars wear it too.

This is the one.

Mr sofa.

These kids.

Are eavesdropping.

Go on, go play at other places!

Sofaman!

Sorry about the sofa.

It's fine, I mean clearly

you both have a very good taste.

Chee Chuan.

Time flies, it's been 50 years.

We're both getting old.

You speak Chinese?

Oh yeah.

We were classmates,

your father-in-law and I.

He taught me Chinese.

And the classmates always make

fun and jokes out of two of us.

And they said we are a couple.

What are you two giggling about?

Sofaman.

Alright buddy, Sofaman

is coming to get you.

I got 6, I win!

I win! Yes!

I haven't spoken in

Chinese for a long time.

Can't remember a lot of words.

Please attend the dinner.

Of course, I'll be there.

Time flies, we all aged.

Now your child is getting

married. You're blessed.

Blessed?

You have no idea.

Adam, Aman, your dad's calling.

Daddy, daddy.

What's make them so happy?

Their father's call.

Ah, I see.

Dad, there's a sofaman

at grandma's place today.

Dad, when are you coming back?

Dad, the sofaman wears the

same pattern as our sofa.

No matter how they fight,

they're still a family.

Try to persuade him to celebrate

his birthday with the daughter.

Because today is their birthday.

No, Bee's birthday was ages ago.

I know, but according to the

traditional Chinese calendar.

Today is their birthday.

Oh I see. Ok.

What are you talking about?

Nothing.

You have to attend, don't forget it.

Sure, I sure will.

I'll see you at the wedding.

Yup, lovely to meet you.

Lovely to meet you too, bye.

Bye sofaman.

Sofaman!

Have a safe trip.

So today is your birthday?

Happy birthday to you!

Stop, make a u-turn, let's go home.

What? You want to go home?

What?

He is heading home to

celebrate our birthday?

Well, we are on our way

to the Highlands right now.

I will try to delay

him as much as possible.

But you know, you need to get

home before he knows about it.

Where can I buy dried scallop?

Marine products.

We don't have it here, you

have to go back to the town.

U-turn.

Why is the door locked? Where is Bee?

Bee, Bee is... she has gone to the valley.

She just gone to pick up something

and she should be right here.

Cut the crap, ask her

to come back right away.

I'll cook her some rice noodle.

Oh yeah.

Absolutely.

May I have your attention please.

Ms Goh Bee Yong, Ms Goh Bee Yong.

Passenger to Kuala Lumpur, please

proceed to boarding gate no.3, thank you.

The street light is not working again.

What if it causes somebody to fall?

OK.

Let's not wait any longer, the noodles

have gone soggy, we'll eat first.

Aren't you changing your

clothes? You think it's nice?

My Shirt?

Yea, I left it on.

Look uncle, Bee is not here.

She didn't go to the valley at all.

She is in Sabah.

Waiting to board the plane.

Sabah.

The plane... in Sabah.

Hey sweetheart.

I was worried about you. What happened?

I missed the flight.

It's ok.

It's ok.

You hungry?

Your dad prepared a very

special birthday dinner for you.

You slept so late, why

did you wake up so early?

Trying to be an early bird?

Why did you buy so much? It's not cheap!

I want to go with you guys. Wait for me.

Have your breakfast before you change.
