"Dad!" "What happened to your glasses?" "Are you alright?" "Sit down!" "I'm fine..." "I forgot it was on the bed" "I sat on it" "It doesn't matter" "We'll get you a new pair" "Along with more hair dye so you'll look smart" "We'll get you rollers to make your hair wavy" "I think we should get him tonic" "I can't stay here any more" "I know..." "I have a plan to win this case" "Tell me what you think" "Tell us!" "We can tell the judge" "I was in jail in Taiwan for 14 years" "Let the judge know even though I fled to Taiwan" "I wasn't there for the good life" "Isn't this a good defense?" "Of course not!" "Don't be silly!" "Taiwan is Taiwan" "The judge doesn't care!" "Bringing it up is worse" "Don't let the judge know you were charged with assault" "If you tell the judge he'll definitely hang you" "The lawyers we hired are the best in Hong Kong" "Let them worry about your defense" "Think nothing of it!" "What is it?" "You can't sleep?" "Shall I give you sleeping pills?" "You know nothing about law" "Don't worry yourself" "Just listen to us" "Exercise more" "Keep up the spirit" "That's enough!" "What is it, Dad?" "You've always been strong" "Keep your head up!" "I'm just cleaning my glasses..." "Dad!" "I'm doomed!" "I'll get a death sentence" "Forget about hiring lawyers" "Don't waste your money" "There's no hope!" "The defense I came up with won't work" "Those Fongs..." "Who are they?" "Even the triad can't scare them off!" "Who are these people?" "They're inhuman!" "Bullying me like this!" "They want me to get a death sentence" "I can't sleep at night" "Everyone morning I want to cry when I get in line for congee" "I'm..." "locked up in here" "I can't eat" "While they're home having a feast happily watching me die" "I'm doomed..." "They won't let up..." "There's no hope!" "I'll be dead soon..." "Dad..." "They're not afraid of anything..." "Dad..." "There's still hope" "We'll think of something" "No!" "There's no hope!" "Lock up!" "The triad may come again!" "I know...it's locked!" "Why won't they move?" "Causing us trouble" "Being their neighbors is a curse" "Hurry up, the elevator is here!" "Mother will nag if we're late" "Of course she will." "We have a home yet we go there and take crap from her" "Be careful!" "You should tell us you're painting!" "What's the point?" "The triad will draw on it again!" "Such a waste of time!" "Damn!" "No electricity!" "Only our building, Mom!" "They have electricity over there!" "This is driving me crazy!" "Stop standing there!" "Get the flash light!" "This is getting out of hand!" "They'll drive us mad!" "Go in, the food is getting cold" "Let's go, Chin-pok" "Come on!" "I'll go paint!" "Chin-pok, Miss Lung called" "She said she'll be there when you go to court" "China Airlines flight 891 has arrived from Hong Kong" "Attention passengers..." "Japan Airline flight 123 last call for passengers bound for..." "Uncle Tsai lives here?" "Upstairs is a Taoist hall" "He has become a devout Taoist" "I wonder if he'll help me" "Don't worry" "Just ask him he won't say no" "Since Wah died" "Brother Tsai has changed" "He became more optimistic" "Much easier to talk to" "He'll help me?" "Great!" "Uncle Tsun!" "Where's Brother Tsai?" "Inside" "Bow again..." "And again...offer the joss sticks" "Summon the Holy Lady" "We thank her for longevity" "Bow..." "Again!" "And again!" "Eat!" "Uncle Tsai" "Hau has gone mad..." "They don't..." "I want peace in here but you keep babbling" "It's true that upon my word" "Ting Hau-hai will be so scared he'll pee in his pants" "I make one call to Hong Kong and your friend will be safe" "Uncle Tsai, please help me" "I'll help anyone but not you" "You're a jinx!" "I still want to live!" "What have I done?" "On your father's account" "I'm letting you sit down and eat with me" "Do you know how Wah died?" "She wanted to help you and be your godmother" "And you thought she had a heart attack!" "The Holy Lady told me you're her jinx" "You killed her!" "Luckily I'm tough or else I'd be dead too" "Do you know you have cut short my life by 5 years?" "It wasn't easy for me to work on my virtues and earn those 5 years back" "Now you showed up again and ask for my help" "You want me to die?" "You don't want Wah to reincarnate?" "I'm telling you either you sit here eat your food quietly or else get the hell out now!" "Uncle Tsai..." "Get out!" "My friend...he's" "Out!" "I don't want to see you!" "Get out!" "Careful..." "Here...be careful!" "Give me..." "Water, Mrs. Chan" "Coming..." "What on earth..." "My bucket is orange" "Orange?" "Sorry..." "Why are you so slow?" "I need the water to cook" "Sorry..." "Living with people like you..." "Sorry..." "This is pathetic!" "Mrs. Lee" "Damn!" "I had to take the stairs..." "Water..." "You again!" "No wonder!" "You held up the elevator!" "Sorry..." "You're driving me crazy!" "It's been like this for days..." "Either there's no water or the power is out" "My son doesn't come home after school" "Must be the triad" "Well?" "It's alright!" "Consider it training" "I can do another 20 rounds" "You're due in court tomorrow at 2:30" "Your bus leaves in the morning?" "I'm taking the 4 o'clock" "Why?" "I want to know your sentence" "Scrimpy!" "Scrimpy!" "Did you buy what you need for China?" "I have everything" "I still owe you around $1,000" "I'll buy you something" "If I leave it up to you you'll never buy anything" "I'll carry that one!" "This is good!" "The red one is light, not bad!" "There's a basket you can put things in it" "Can I take it for a spin?" "Sure, just be careful!" "You'll need it!" "You can't live in China without a bike or you'll be like a cripple" "Come on, Scrimpy" "Hop on... ready?" "Let's go!" "Shall we go on the main road?" "Thank you!" "Here's the receipt" "Pick up the bike at this address" "Thanks!" "There's $150 left" "What else do you need?" "Did you get a sweater?" "Yes?" "Think of something!" "Don't grab the money!" "It's hard to buy anything in China" "Did you know that?" "That's enough..." "Stop grabbing in public!" "Alright?" "Don't buy anything!" "Don't act stupid, Scrimpy!" "Don't spend the money!" "Listen to me..." "Just this once...get an iron" "No!" "Nothing else!" "You need to iron your clothes" "I'll get it myself" "You need an iron" "I'll buy you dinner" "Get chicken and fish!" "About your case, Mr. Ting" "The odds are against you" "We have studied the prosecution's evidence" "I believe the best defense is to change the murder charge to manslaughter in excusable self defense" "Excusable self defense?" "Manslaughter?" "How about just excusable self defense and forget about manslaughter?" "Or excusable self defense and putting someone to sleep accidentally?" "We'll worry about the phrase later" "No, we can't!" "The choice of word is crucial" "Isn't that right, Mr. Lam?" "We'll do our best to plead for a lighter sentence" "A lighter sentence?" "You can't win?" "Excusable doesn't mean acquittal?" "Did you tell them I can't go to jail?" "Dad, you don't know..." "That's it..." "Mr. Lam" "How about this?" "If my son told you" "I spent 14 years in jail in Taiwan" "That's a separate case, Mr. Ting" "Fine..." "I'll tell the judge make him feel sorry for me" "I killed someone" "That's a fact" "We still have one defense" "Give them a moving story" "If we can make the judge and the jury feel sorry for me" "We'll win the case" "I think it'll work" "The first half of my life is quite sad indeed" "All my life" "I've been ruined by love and loyalty" "If we can win the judge's sympathy" "I'll be acquitted!" "Mr. Ting" "Nobody has ever used such a defense" "It's a bit embarrassing but Chinese will buy it" "But the law dictates..." "Forget the law" "The judge is human and so is the jury" "People have feelings" "If you see a poor beggar limping on the street" "You'll give him some money" "Why?" "Because you feel sorry" "He doesn't work for you and hasn't done anything for you" "Why do you give him money?" "Because you feel sorry for him!" "Feeling sorry for someone is important" "Sorry!" "I withdraw from this case" "Find someone else!" "Mr. Lam, I..." "Mr. Ting, I have never lost a case in 3 years" "I won't make an exception for you" "I'm just making a suggestion" "Forget it if you don't think it'll work but you must help me" "I'm not an educated man, don't mind me" "Don't do this..." "Help me!" "Please help me!" "Don't be upset!" "Thank you..." "Mr. Ting" "I need your complete trust in us" "I know you're trying to help" "I know..." "Here's the deal" "Tomorrow is the first session of the trial" "The judge will normally..." "Hurry, give me pen and paper..." "There's no need for that" "Just listen to me carefully" "The judge will normally ask how do you plead" "What shall I tell him?" "At that time answer him politely "Not guilty"" "and we're done" "Politely?" "The first impression by the judge and the jury is crucial" "We'll talk more after tomorrow" "I have to go!" "Thank you, Mr. Lam" "You're welcome!" "See you!" "He's right!" "The first impression is important" "I'll be as polite as I can" "Polite..." "They look like good lawyers" "You must listen to them" "Follow his instructions" "Right!" "I'll listen to them" "I must be polite" "Answer the judge politely..." "As polite as I can" "Polite..." "The exam is over" "Stop reading, it's too dark!" "What's with Chin-pok?" "He's been in the shower forever!" "I know!" "These people are so stupid!" "Chin-pok, give this ointment to Mui" "She'll need it in China" "I'm going over there now" "He goes to trial tomorrow" "Yuen Mui is leaving tomorrow" "Misery loves company!" "Man, eat something!" "You must eat to get your strength!" "Eat this!" "Ling told me to give you this" "Please thank her for me" "Start eating!" "Go on!" "Have a beer!" "Don't eat the rice!" "Eat these dishes and have a beer" "Great!" "What is it?" "You caught a bone?" "This chicken is delicious!" "The soya sauce smells great and the meat is tender" "I can smell the chicken oil!" "The shrimps are fresh and the garlic smells great" "You're such a good cook!" "Everything is so delicious!" "The chicken, the shrimps the fish...even the soup tastes good!" "Eat some more!" "The meal I missed last time" "How did you cook the chicken?" "I bought a tender chicken to make boiled chicken" "Really?" "But I didn't use water" "I heated it with rice soup to bring out the smell of chicken oil between the skin and meat" "Is it thin and semi-translucent?" "Yes, using rice soup will make the skin smoother" "Sounds delicious!" "What about the fish?" "I steamed it with plum, bean paste and dried orange peel" "And the shrimps?" "When the shrimps are still alive" "I soaked them in rice wine and put them in the refrigerator" "When I'm ready to eat them" "I boiled them and added soya sauce" "I also made a dip for the shrimps with green onions, soya sauce and mustard" "I added the water from the shrimps to the rice soup from the chicken and put in some Chinese ham to cook the vegetables" "They're delicious!" "I missed that meal" "I must have wasted your effort" "Not guilty" "Not guilty" "No..." "I plead not guilty" "This is not working!" "I plead not guilty" "Not guilty" "I plead not guilty" "I won't..." "Say it for me, politely!" "Say it..." "I'm not guilty..." "Forget it!" "I...plead not guilty" "Right...be more polite" "Say I'm not guilty" "Be polite..." "I plead not guilty" "Of course I please not guilty" "Something is missing" "What is it?" "Be polite!" "Of course I'm not guilty" "That's not it!" "Not guilty!" "I...plead not guilty" "I'm not guilty" "Not guilty!" "Not guilty!" "Not guilty!" "Not guilty!" "I plead not guilty!" "You have so many bags" "Let me throw some out for you!" "OK?" "No!" "I have use for them!" "You only have 2 hands" "You can't carry them all!" "Don't move!" "Detergent and the bucket?" "Don't go through my things!" "What are you doing?" "It wasn't easy to pack everything" "I'll help you throw something away" "What are you taking?" "Look at you!" "Forget the pot!" "Why did you take this?" "Never mind!" "I'll find a way to carry it" "You can barely get downstairs never mind all the way to Hangzhou" "Stop it!" "I spent 2 days packing" "This is ridiculous!" "What's this?" "It's very light!" "I have to see this!" "No!" "You can't!" "You can't open it!" "Let me see!" "No!" "Stop it!" "Will you listen to me?" "Scrimpy, it's late!" "I'm going" "Are they asleep?" "Yes, all of them" "You' re staying tonight?" "Yes" "I'm on leave" "I'll keep vigil" "Touch wood!" "I'll be the night watch" "You work tomorrow?" "No, I'm hanging up the uniform to tell them a cop is here" "I know I'm no help but I'm a cop nevertheless" "If those punks decide to pour gasoline again" "They might think twice when they lit up about the trouble of burning a cop alive" "Tired?" "Rub with this" "It's quite good" "Cool and soothing" "Get some sleep if you're tired" "Get ready for trial tomorrow" "Where does it hurt?" "Come..." "Don't be mad..." "What?" "To tell you the truth" "I used to tell Ling never to marry someone like you" "You were just kidding?" "I thought you were worthless fussing like an old lady" "But now I feel" "I'm worthless" "I'm not a man at all" "Don't say that!" "Will you keep still?" "I'm talking to you" "Tomorrow" "After Siu Man picks up her results" "After the trial" "If I go to jail, I'm not coming back" "The women will be on their own" "Those gangsters..." "They're heartless" "Alright..." "Aren't they?" "Alright!" "Get some sleep" "Not guilty" "Not guilty" "Not guilty, Your Honor" "Not guilty, Your Honor"
