Don't even know if they can do it.

Lose those two useless fatsos back there.

It's hot, what's this candle for?

You asked for the candle.

You said it'd look better.

Stop it now.

Anyway

The Korean assassins have been hired

to kill the crown prince.

How could it be?

Doctor,

They are framing you!

We must protect the prince.

If they succeed,

We'll never clear our names

We need a big crowd.

The bigger the crowd,

the more difficult for them to do it.

Tomorrow?

From what I've heard

there won't be much of a crowd tomorrow

I'm afraid.

Think of something, quick!

What to do?

This is highly dangerous.

Wait!

I got it!

Hey, Missus.

You must come tomorrow, for the parade.

If you bring 10 people along with you.

You'll have a long blessed life.

If you can't have 10 with you.

You'll have the City God to answer to

and be in trouble your whole life.

Hurry along.

Hey, Mister.

Come to the welcome parade tomorrow

and make sure you tell 10 people about it.

I'm on my way.

You'll be in big trouble if you don't.

Listen to me, you must come, tomorrow

and must tell 10 more about this

if you want to be blessed.

Don't blame anyone if you get cursed

(muttering gibberish)

What's that?

I've done my ten.

Ten? I thought it was 20.

Stop messing around.

20?! Got to go.

We'll make it.

OK?

OK.

Let's get moving.

Missus, don't forget, 10.

What now?

Need more..

Hey, listen to me.

Or you'll be cursed.

Run along

Quick

Yeah, I've done 10.

Now the wheels are turning.

Everyone, step back.

Keep quiet, no disruption.

Back off, back.

Step back.

- Hurry.

Step back.

You?!

Escaped from prison?

That's one more charge against you.

You set the doctor up!

Doctor!

They've got everyone off the street

bad news for the prince.

Listen to me!

Have you smelt the sweet aroma of tea?

Have you?

Have you smelled

the wonderful scent of pineapple?

That's us, the scent of Taiwan.

We grow the best tea in the world.

Even the Chinese buy tea from us.

Demands so great, we hardly have enough.

But the icing on the cake is,

our baseball team

will win the world championship one day.

In 100 years,

we'll build

the tallest building in the world.

We must believe in ourselves.

The Japanese

are stopping us.

Fine.

We just need to stand up,

and work together

and we'll show the Japanese!

So, let's stand together

and shock the world.

That's right!

We're no dumb slaves.

We must let them know

we're no second class citizens!

That's right!

The world is ours, we just need to speak up.

Fellow citizens, unite together!

Fellow citizens, unite together!

Fellow citizens, unite together!

His majesty is here!

Back, step back.

Hurry, step back.

Whats that?

- Take this pineapple.

I don't want it,

Take it, it might come in handy.

Try steal my girlfriend again!

Jack!

Jack!

Jack!

Hold tight!

Jack!

Hold tight!

Jack!

Mister, are you alright?

Are you OK?

(Japanese) Beautiful!

Excuse me, no photos.

Rose!

Rose, you alright?

I'm fine.

No flash, thank you.

No flash.

Master Pig!

What day is it today?

What day is it today?

23rd of June.

Where are we?

We're here.

In TTT.

What?

What's that?

That's called a motorbike...

We need to hurry.

- And this?

Rose!

Careful.

And that?

That's Taipei 101,

the tallest building in the world.

If they'd killed the prince,

history would've changed

and the future would be damned.

The future?

I mean now.

Is it any different?

This way.

We've got the power to change our future.

Master Pig!

That's him.

Hurry.

Watch out.

Is that a motorbike, too?

No, that's...

a skateboard.

That year,

Dr. Chiang's plan

the parade-turned-petition

was a huge SUCCESS.

Despite some minor incidents.

The Japanese Crown Prince

had indeed heard their voices.

Now let's watch a documentary.

Freedom! Equality!

Freedom! Equality!

Fellow citizens!

Fellow citizens!

Unite Together!

Fellow citizens, unite together!

Blossom fell in the dirt,

who is there to care for it?

The merciless rain

and wind stand in my way of success.

What to do

when the blossom is in the dirt.

Rain is falling,

it drowns me in the pond of suffering.

Why the blossom gets severed

from the leaves and trees

and left deserted for no one to see.

Why the blossom gets severed

from the leaves and trees

and left deserted for no one to see.

Made up your mind?

Let's do it.

I'm staying here.

I wanted to go with you.

Truth is,

I like the way I was very much.

I was brave, and reckless.

But,

that's your golden age.

Not mine.

So I've decided to stay,

and create my own golden age.

I want to tell more people

about our history.

You call the shots.

Think twice.

One click.

She's gone.

And you'll never get

a girlfriend as pretty as she is.

See you again.

See you again.

Goodbye, Jack.

Come back soon.

Don't forget us.

She's gone.

That's not too bad.

You love her,

and she loves you.

Whereas me,

I love Ginger to bits.

But she doesn't care about me at all.

I don't even know if she's dead or alive.

Not sure if they can save her.

Ms Ginger!

Ms Ginger!

Ms Ginger, you're alive!

Ms Ginger!

Jack.

That's enough.

That's enough.

It hurts!

Ms Ginger!

What are you doing?

Hugging her so tight.

Don't you know she's recovering?

I'm sorry.

And you.

I was the one who saved you.

And you're hugging HIM?

It's so unfair.

Get out of my sight.

Better yet. Go get a room.

Nonsense.

He's just like my son.

Besides,

I'm not going back.

Not going back?

Where will you go then?

Wherever you go,

I'll go too.

Really? You're not just saying that?

Really.

Don't lie and break my heart.

I'm too old to have a broken heart.

Not old at all.

Really?

Let's go.

Jack, don't you come knocking.

Nonsense.

The flower of youth, is the blooming rose.

Hey, look.

Let me have a go.

How much did you pay for that?

How much?

Guo.

Black!

How's everyone?!

Why do you talk like my grandpa?

I've missed you all!

Dropping out from college?

We're not really the brainy type.

So we've decided to go home,

and learn how to grow organic vegetables.

I'm going on a working holiday

to Australia, too.

You won't be able to come

to my book signing then.

That's if your book ever gets published.

Don't say that.

Never say never.

Just go for it.

Right? Jack?

You've changed a lot!

You're the one who's changed.

YES, never say never.

Just go for it.

Just go for it.

This way, Ginger.

Take a seat.

I'm so happy.

You've finally accepted me.

I don't feel quite right though.

Something wrong?

I know...

you're still recovering.

Don't worry.

I'll be gentle.

You wait here.

I'll go take a shower.

And wash myself clean

especially for you.

Go ahead.

Third time brushing my teeth.

Cologne.

This is the happiest day of my life!

I'm getting married!

Ginger says yes!

Ginger?

Who are you? What are you doing here?

Who am I? I'm Ginger.

You're Ginger?

Yes.

It can't be.

Nonsense.

Haven't you heard about
