The Moment

---

1

It's been a while since

we've seen each other

Do you still remember?

What you were like in the past?

I'm too busy to be thinking about this

We still live our lives as usual

We all live so identically

In a way that,

I don't even remember who I am

What I am doing

Things in the past are fading

Leaving only...

Leaving only...

I don't even know what is left behind

I don't know you that well

I'm not forcing you to sell the property

We can discuss this together

since we were classmates

Frankly speaking, isn't it better to

make a quick fortune,

Than to be living here?

I like it this way, so what?

Hey Chan Kat-fa. You were my buddy,

That's why I'm still

patiently talking to you

Are you looking for a fight by

insisting like this?

Come on!

It's been 20 years since I last saw you

and you're still full of anger

Listen to me man,

I'm here today because

your father had agreed to sell this place

He's never mentioned it before

- Yes

- No

He certainly has

Let's ask him

Richard

Richard

Richard

Do you recognise me?

I'm Lee Chi-Kin, the 'Shower head' boy

I've brought you some chicken essence

He's had a stroke, he's not deaf

So here's the thing,

I came to you before inquiring

about the sale of your apartment.

And you agreed to sell it to me

Fai said that he would listen to you.

I just want you to confirm that

this is in fact what happened.

He just said it

He didn't say anything

I heard it, he said no

Stop messing with me

I'm sorry to bother you, Richard

How about this?

Let's make this easier

If you agree to sell, make one sound

If you don't, make two

Isn't that simple?

He made two sounds

Yes, he did. I heard him.

He said "Very much so"

Nope, he told you to go to hell

Come on, don't mess with me like that

No, no... it's the contract!

He said it in Mandarin, "Contract"

Last time I came, I left him the contract

He must have signed it

Find it

- and you'll know it's true

- Enough! Stop messing around

I'm serious. Find it and you'll see

- The contract tells the truth

- You either pay for my service

or you get out of here

Come on man.

If you continue being like this,

I'm gonna beat you up.

Stop the violence, Ok?

We are civilized people

We honour the spirit of the contract

- I'll call the police then.

- Please don't...

I'm sorry, Brother Fai

Sorry that I've never visited you

Since we graduated high school

I've been busy with work, I'm sorry.

However, liberating in the crowd yet

not knowing what it is now...

This is my first photo taken at the studio

You've kept it all these years.

You're such a good friend.

I've always seen you as a friend

No! I wouldn't have a friend like you

No... Please listen to me, Brother Fai

This is so true

It's very important to me

I know that you're reluctant to sell,

But your father promised to sell it to me

Please leave

Let me search for it

- He really promised me

- Get out!

I want my photo taken!

We are closing up now

All right then, I'll sit and wait here

until you open tomorrow

I'm gonna start now...

Hey! Wait!

Don't you destroy the evidence!

Get out

Go wait outside

So what now then?

I said I'd apply for

the working holiday visa before I turn 30

If I don't go this year,

then I'll be too old next year

I'm talking about us

You said we're gonna get married

How are we going to do that

if you don't save up and buy a place?

Marriage and buying a flat are not related

If you want to get married

We'll do the registration tomorrow, okay?

Have you ever thought about our future?

You're just being a pseudo-artist

and going after your so-called "dreams"

Do you know how this world is works?

We've been together for 6 years

Did you only just realise that

I'm a dream-chaser kind of guy?

So are we getting married or not'?

Let's call the lawyer now

Where do you want to register?

At the lawyer's office?

What's going on?

What's going on? Hey, this isn't

in the script. Where's the director?

- Where is he?

- Cut!

- Make up crew!

- Director!

- She splashed coffee at me!

- It's okay...

I'm sorry, I just thought

it was appropriate for the scene

That woman is insane

She wants to quit by putting me on the spot

Get in there and sort it out

Or else I'm not going inside

Come on, we are old friends.

Help me out, man.

How am I not helping out?

If I didn't want to help,

then I wouldn't agree to this

Moreover, agreeing to work with her?

If you guys weren't a real couple

starring opposite each other,

I wouldn't manage to get funding.

How would we know that you guys

Would break up during the shoot?

Oh, you're back?

Looks like you've made a decision

Let us know if you want to quit

Don't make us wait

I'm sorry, 9W5

There's been a misunderstanding

Everything is fine, let's carry on

Director, don't you have

a few words to say?

Wing, you did a great job earlier

But Hin wasn't comfortable

with some aspects

It was perfectly comfortable for me

If you don't feel

comfortable, go to the doctor

I'm totally fine. Propsman,

Get me a cup of hot coffee

Make sure it's boiling hot

Continuing from the coffee scene

Everyone get in position.

You can't get rid of me

with your dirty tricks

And make me look like the bad guy

I'm not the one who's changed

And I wasn't the one who

initiated the break-up

When this is all done,

We'll let everyone decide

who's in the wrong

Camera rolling

Camera A

Camera B ready

Ready and action!

Right. You haven't changed

Or has neither of us changed?

You said that people are

like two different planets

When they meet,

They're on the same path

Until many years later

They grow apart

Then they realize...

Hey cut cut cut!

What a professional you are!

You actually ordered the camera to cut

So you don't give a sh*t

about the director?

You're throwing a fit now?

Looks like someone wants to lose her job.

You're complete nonsense

Really?

Hey you non stop shaking

You've been here for a whole hour

How can you leave those chicks over there?

What a waste

I like it!

Remember her?

Part one of this love story

Happened in CUHK 20 years ago

Leung Wai Yee was your

classmate and girlfriend

After 1.5 years with you, she got pregnant

And you told her to get an abortion

Right?

Then you two broke up

Mom moved to Toronto and gave birth to me

Daddy

She's disappeared for such a long time

How is it possible that

I have a daughter as old as you?

I've tested your DNA

That's crazy. How did you do that?

I snuck into your place sometime ago

What?

I'm sorry, Dad

I know this is crazy

But if I hadn't done this

There's no way I can spend

time with you alone

Silly girl, you're my daughter

You don't have to apologise

Come over here, and give Daddy a hug

Now that you've found me

You have to return to Toronto

And go back to school

Come on

That's not what I want from you

I just need an answer

Why did you want to get

rid of me back then?

Why?

There's no "why" in this

What are you doing?

Your mother sent you here
