You don't sound like a pro.

Have you ever heard of the caterer

Master Fly Spirit?

Have you?

He was her dad, my husband.

Chairman Hsu?

How about him?

He asked us to compete in the contest.

I have very strong support.

What happens if you lose?

Let's bet then!

Don't just watch from the sidelines.

Hey hey hey.

Okay!

If you win,

you give me the 1 million right away.

No problem.

I have a question though.

You're full of questions.

How did you find us here?

Your neighbor's wife told us.

The preliminary contest starts in 3 days.

Just 3 days?

Okay!

Alright!

From now on, we're inseparable.

We leave for Taipei tomorrow morning.

Wait... leave for Taipei?

Where will we stay in Taipei?

Taipei's expensive,

let's crash at Miss Wan's place.

I don't think we can.

The landlord

probably rented it out already.

What should we do?

What should we do?

We can ask Animals on Call.

Who?

Animals on Call.

But I need to stop by home first.

Damn,

the electricity's off.

Stop shining that at me.

Why do you carry flashlights with you?

That's what pros do.

Hey hey hey.

Hey what?

Here.

It's dark.

Here.

Help me carry this.

Okay okay.

Serious stuff.

What are you looking for?

Hubby,

your daughter and I

will make you shine again.

Bless us so we can win this contest.

Turn the ignition, stop on the gas.

Come on.

No, just stop on it.

Do you know what you're doing?

Go.

Harder.

It's on! it's on!

This van can still move.

Nice, it's still got it.

Up so early?

We haven't gone to sleep yet.

We posted online

you're going to Taipei for the contest.

There were thousands of replies

right away.

We found you a hotel.

This is the address and phone number.

Thanks.

Who are they?

Our assistants.

We call them Stooges.

What's up! You are?

Stooge A

Stooge B

Stooges A and B, start loading up.

What?

What?

Hurry up. Move your asses.

What are you staring at?

Hurry, come on.

Get it together.

How are you? Stooge A.

How are you? Stooge B

Hello!

Ai Fong Eatery. Can I help you?

What?

The police station?

What happened?

Grandpa

grabbed this old lady's ass.

Old lady? I'm not that old!

Look at this

old fart.

Old pervert.

Ma'am, calm down.

He's lost his mind. Don't be angry with him.

He wouldn't have touched you

if he was thinking clearly.

Are you saying I'm ugly?

No no,

that's not what she meant.

Please calm down, calm down.

That's it. I want him to move out now.

Move out? Where else can they live?

I don't care.

I'll sue him if he doesn't leave.

Don't just throw them out.

Where can they go?

Have some compassion!

Move out now!

Fine! We will!

Fat ass!

Who are you calling a fat ass?

You're the fat ass!

What now!

Do we have to take them with us?

What else can we do?

Leave them?

Change the song.

This one keeps repeating.

We can't. Stereo's busted.

This is it.

It's driving me nuts.

I think this song's pretty good.

(Hai, going to Taipei

for a catering competition)

Hi, Little Fish?

We're here.

We're here. Thanks.

He's coming to get us.

Is that him?

Him?

WC!

You sure his name isn't huge fish?

Welcome, you're Wan?

Then...

you must be huge One.

You can follow me inside in a moment.

Thanks a lot.

Why is it so dark here?

This is the back entrance.

Why don't we stay at the Grand Hotel?

This way please.

I managed to get 3 rooms for you all.

Right here?

No.

Lower your voice a bit.

Just go straight.

What a crappy place.

What if someone finds out?

No way, my girlfriend works the front desk.

The manager

doesn't check this area at night.

We're all online friends

with Animals on Call.

The Animal on Calls are well-connected.

Now you know.

You said your girlfriend

works the front desk?

Nowadays the catering masters

are so wasteful

They don't care about saving the costs.

Look at this

expensive stuff.

WC.

These scallions and garlic were unused.

What a waste.

You!

It's you!

My notebook.

Stop running!

Hey!

Stop running!

Stop running!

Give me back my notebook!

Hey!

Stop running!

Hey!

Hey!

Stop running!

Hey! Stop running!

Where's my notebook?

Sorry,

I wasn't careful with it.

I tore out some pages to make a fire.

You burned my dad's book of recipes!

Are you interested in cooking?

I have no interest.

That's fine then.

There's no use in something

you don't need.

Don't be upset.

I'll cook something good for you.

What are you cooking today?

Cabbage Stew.

Smells good.

This old uncle surely knows how to cook.

I've gained 5 kilograms

since I transferred here.

It's ready.

Me first.

You first.

You knew to bring scallions,

just what I need.

Smart.

You brought me soy sauce.

Be careful. Come back for seconds.

Come get some

if you want.

You do that, too?

Where are you?

I'm on

a beach by the sea.

How romantic.

I'm on the Moon.

Is it cold on the Moon?

Not bad. A bit chilly.

How about there? Sea breeze too windy?

Not too bad.

You're...

Master Silly Mortal.

How did you know?

My mom said:

Eating Master Silly Mortal's food

will trigger emotions that

make you feel really human.

But...

Why do I feel like crying?

You're so young and pretty.

Why are you crying?

I just feel bitter.

Did you know...

Bitter melon wasn't like that originally.

It's because of green popper and tomato.

Green popper

felt bad about its bitter taste.

And not being red or popular like a tomato.

So it often vent to bitter melon.

But a tomato

doesn't want to be so red or popular.

It just wants to be itself.

So it also vented a lot to bitter melon.

All the venting stuck with bitter melon.

And it started to grow bumps.

That's why bitter melon

looks the way it does.

So,

is green popper happier

than bitter melon?

You're so silly.

Trying to make sense of my bullshit.

So what's so great

about being a catering master?

A catering master

can turn green pepper and bitter melon

into delicious food.

You can be proud and make others happy.

You feel happy

making other people happy?

Of course.

I don't have to hear people vent.

I don't have to hear people vent.

Wouldn't that make you happy?

You're not silly at all.

Why are you called Master Silly Mortal?

You sure I'm not silly?

This whole time I've been arguing with you

wearing a box on my head.

You sure I'm not silly?

Then,

but why are you a drifter

instead of a chef?

You'd know if you were on the Moon.

There's nothing to cook.

Why do you want to go to the Moon?

It's less crowded

and cooler here.

Some day

will I go to the Moon too?

Hey!

No way.

Be nice, give me my space.

You stay on the beach.

The beach has nicer scenery

and it's more popular.

Oh.

Master, you go in and take a rest.

I have no idea where Slacker went.

Please stop mumbling.

Here she is.

Where the heck have you been?

The Moon.

Hey,

we've been waiting on earth for you.

But you decided to go to the damn Moon.

This hotel room is very comfy.

What are you looking at?

Math homework?

No.

Then what's this?

I found the notebook Dad left me.
