"Who has been with you longer on this street, him or me?" "Your brother got an education from abroad he thinks, you fight, it's a great combination." "Little Cheung, listen up you kill your father if he won't give you an education." "That's not the right way to teach kids." " Not the right way?" " Of course not!" " What's not right about it?"

"This is not the first time I'm passing messages for him." "I don't know what their relationship was before but I sometimes see Mr. Hoi in the old movies as a side character." "On this street, he is pretty well-respected." "Mr. Hoi, Mr. Hoi." "There's Brother Cheung and Mr. Hoi." "Don't watch this anymore." "Leave it on, I'm watching." "No more, they're all second-rate!"

"That day I was doing my homework in the restaurant..." "Fan tumed around to leave without coming in." "It was odd the way she ran away at the sight of the police." "I followed her." "When I stood in front of her my mind was a blank." "The only thing I could do was laugh." "She saw me laughing, so she laughed too." "I work very fast, please don't fire me!" "Keep working, don't be a pest!" "What's the use of hiring a woman?" "Stop gawking, go back to work!" " Little Cheung, what are you two doing here?" " I came to play with him." "It's dirty here, go home!" "Be careful, crossing the streets!" "All wet!" "My mother said her boss is mean, the other one is better." " I think the good one is the older brother" " No, he's the younger one" " No, the nice one is older" " Younger." "I have an older brother too but my father kicked him out." " Your brother must be mean and bad" " Let's play on the truck." "The rain stopped." "Stop hitting me." "Who do you hate most?" "Me?" "I don't know..." "what about you?" "I hate my parents working all day long." "I..." "I hate that jerk David." "That asshole David!" "You kicked me!" "Kung Fu!" "Cross arm!" "You look like a monkey in a circus." "Who's that?" "Little Cheung, did you do that?" "You mess with the police, I'll tell your father!" "I'll give you twenty percent off!" "Twenty-five percent!" "Alright?" "You want him to pay protection money." "No!" "Don't believe all the rumours out there." "You ask them, didn't I grow up on this street too?" "How could I do such a thing, right?" "This is final..." "Thirty percent off, alright?" "You feel better about that, Grandma?" "Don't watch too much TV, I'm going now!" "Rest more now!" "Say goodbye to Grandma..." "Little Cheung!" "Where did you take your girlfriend?" "You're all wet" "Your Grandma will have her birthday banquet at our restaurant." "Bring your little girlfriend, too." "Come early and play some mahjong." "That's settled, let's go!"

"I'm eighty-something now." "What about this?" "That's me when I was still acting." "What did Brother Cheung do?" "He has performed for a long time." "This one." "They have gone crazy about this opera singer." "I performed with Brother Cheung back in those days." "Our most popular piece was "General Kwan  Diu Zen"." "Brother Cheung was General Kwan, you know?" "Of course he was great, he killed people." "You know who played Diu Zen?" "If it was me, I wouldn't have had to avoid that "vixen"." "I wasn't as pretty as her." "That "vixen" was prettier." "She was opera singer, and she landed Brother Cheung." " What about Mr. Hoi?" " Hoi, he was just an extra!" "You were really that famous?" "Of course, Brother Cheung was my partner." "No big deal, it's all history now." " Who's your idol?" " Tamagotchi!" "I don't have one, but my mother likes Teresa Tang." ""Not bad, she was a beauty."" "She could sing, could move, but she couldn't somersault." "What a pity!" "Grandma, I'm leaving." " Take care, bye-bye" " Bye-bye." "Hey, Mr. Gin." " You were on the phone for so long!" " Sorry, it was my husband." "Where's Little Cheung?" " He's asleep" " Remember to check whether he's warm enough." "Also, don't watch TV so late." "Not me, your mother." "Alright, bye-bye." "Your son is blaming me again." "Grandma, July 1st, I want to use the five day holiday to go back to the Philippines." "I haven't seen my husband for a long time." "Go ahead!" "Thank you Grandma, you tell your son please..." "The plane ticket is expensive, I can use the money to hire people." "How much does your husband make?" "I have two maids at home." "One driver, two children." " My husband doesn't work" " You're stupid!" "Little Cheung, I didn't order anything." "Do you know this person?" "If Grandma didn't have this only photo of my brother I wouldn't know how good-looking he was." "Grandma said my brother was like a wounded bird no different from anyone on the street." "He couldn't fly out of here." "I don't care, if I had a brother to protect me I wouldn't be scared of the mean people." "Is this Hang?" "Brother, look!" "It's really Hang!" "What does your brother look like?" "I don't know, my father kicked him out when I was three." "Your mother must've been heart broken?" "I think Grandma was sadder." "...but Grandma loves me too." "It's late and your brother is still not here." "There's still no sign of him." "Yeh?" "No." " It's late, I've got to go" " Wait a little more." "No, my father will kill me."

"There are stars here and I can touch them too." "Yours are not real, I'd rather look at this side." "What's so special about touching them with your hands?" "I can touch them with my feet." "Yeh, I got it!" "Yeh!" "Fan, look!" "Uncle Fat, what was it?" "Gang fight, it's none of your business." "When?" "That night, someone did appear but I don't remember anything." "All because Fan wanted to leave." "1, 2, 3, Traffic light." "Cross the road." "Be careful!" "Little Cheung, Little Cheung, get up!" " I'm tired" " Wake up!" "Grandma got the news about my brother from me." "She was so excited." "Someone said she walked on the street without a cane and she was taking big steps." "I don't believe it, I just don't." "The poor maid was crying on the balcony for a whole hour." "She got a call from her neighbour saying that her husband had a mistress." "Mister, do you have a white Tamagotchi?" "Yeh, it's over a thousand dollars." "How much exactly?" "Around a thousand two hundred and ten." "I have it." "I only have one thousand one hundred." "Thousand one?" "Let's see!" "...Alright, deal!" " You try getting on the bike" " It'll fall." "It won't fall." "Can you do it?" "You know how to get on?" "Come teach me." "I told you to learn how to get on first." "You go it?" "Try one more time."

" That's impossible" " Wah, the count has been wrong recently?" "Two, four, six, eight..." "Who had an accident this time?" "I don't know, Wah, can you see?" "Mr. Lee, I'm happy that you help me level things out between my two sons." "...I'll pay your fee soon." "Alright, thank you." "Mr. Ma!" "Mr. Hoi!" " What're you doing?" " Your order." "Did you say goodbye to Kenny?" "Kenny left and he's not coming back." "He said Hong Kong is not fun." "Little Cheung, the other day I asked you about your grandma What was her reply?" " Grandma said no" " Is that all?" "Grandma is not happy." "Brother Cheung has a big family feud." "I'd be surprised if she could sleep." "At least she can get up early to exercise." "Exercise, like this." "Not like that, like this." "That's right." "What do you know about being old?" "I'm having tea, you want some?" "Kung Fu tea." "It'd be different if Kenny was running the show." "No need to consider, your mother promised already." "David would blame me if you don't do it at our restaurant this year." "That's your family's business." "I understand." "You're right, I understand." "I know, please consider it." "Twenty-five percent?" "No!" "...The market is so bad, I can get that deal anywhere."
