" Is my pension ready...?" " Nana..." "Listen to me... please." "I've applied for a long long time already." " Nana..." " Is my pension ready...?" "Your pension is already approved." "You can come and collect it tomorrow." " Tomorrow, are you sure?" " Yes!" "I'll be in trouble if I can't have it tomorrow." "My son will kill me if I don't have it tomorrow." " Cathy, let me help!" " O.K. Thanks!" "Your pension is already approved." " Miss..." " You can collect it tomorrow!" "It's tomorrow!" "So repetitive and long-winded!" "You should be happy!" "Come on, you say it!" "I can't, you should say it." "What is it?" "We want to have an infertility operation." "An infertility operation?" "I am sorry, this is the Family Service Dept." "You need the Family Planning Association." "Let me give you the address." "Thank you!" "Can men have the operation too?" "Yes!" "It's agreed that you do it!" "I won't." "I can't if I cut it off." "Others can, even though they've cut it." "Why can't you!" "TV slogan says men should also participate." "Statistics show that, everything will be back to normal." "What are you afraid of?" "If you can't, do you still think I can?" "Usually one can!" "If I can't, then nothing can be done!" "What has happened?" "He put it on his head, pretending to be a fireman." "It's stuck, can't take it off." "You should take him to the doctor." "I know!" "I just wanted to show you." "And see if I can claim medical expenses." "Of course not, no claim on this." "Naughty boy, no claim now." "You shouldn't do this!" " You'd choose something we can claim!" " My head is aching!" "Mine is even worse!" "Miss, please adopt my dog!" "No, we can't adopt him here." "Our house hasn't got enough space to him." "We are the Family Service Dept." "Here." "Who said we can adopt your dog?" "He isn't back until very late at night." "He hasn't given me any allowance for 2 weeks." "Let's talk to him for you!" "It's useless, he's hopeless." "Let's put out a ban." "To forbid him from gambling." "That's a good idea!" "If you think social work is just ordinary office work," "I suggest you might as well change jobs, because sooner or later, you won't be able to bear it." "But if you feel there's something spiritual, that is in caring for others, conscientiousness, and love for society." "Our centre welcomes you." "Although social work is a spiritual job, remember we are not almighty, nor saviours." "Also don't be emotional." "The file in your hand is your first case." "Remember, never talk with others when holding them." "It will only keep them away." "I repeat, don't be emotional." "If there is no question," "I welcome you on behalf of the Family Service Dept." "Thank you, Mr. Chow!" "Feel free to ask me if you have any queries." "Thank you!" "Your lecture was very nice!" "No wonder you friends call you "Actor Chow"!" "Call me Mr. Chow!" "Is it because of these files that you're keeping me away?" "Don't mix business with pleasure!" "No personal talks during business hours." "Sorry, Mr. Chow!" "Koko, joining me for lunch?" "Please call me Miss Cheng." "Don't be angry, please!" "Don't mix business with pleasure!" "It's office hours now." "No more personal talk." "How about dinner tonight?" "I don't like to dine with actors." "Actor Chow!" "You're always back for more, how can I afford it?" "Just for emergencies." "Everytime you said borrow, when can you return it?" "This time is different, I've got a job." "Kong, you've been out of jail for 3 years now, always said you've a job, yet never see you work." "Those jobs." "They don't have any prospect." "It's different now." "I'm employed by a firm as manager." "And has an income of over $10,000." "Next time I can pay you back." "What's more, I can spare you some!" "I'm happy if you don't come back for more!" "Once more. $500 for some new clothes." "For my new job!" "Alright, take this and leave!" "Your daughter is on her way home." "Is she job-hunting?" "No, just got one and it's her first day." "She's almost back." "If she sees you asking for money, there'll be trouble." "Leave!" " Back from work already?" " Grandma!" "Koko!" "You look more and more beautiful." "Here again for more money?" "No, I'm here to give money to Grandma!" "Yes, he's here to give me money." "Grandma." "Don't lie for him." "What does he know... besides gambling?" "Koko!" "Stop calling me!" "Leave now, or I'll sweep you out!" "Go on, leave." "She means it!" "How can I leave without any money?" "OK." "Here's $200 shopping money I can spare!" "Leave!" "Koko, don't...!" "Any slower, I'll hit on your head." "Why this." "He's your father!" "Grandma, he never carried out his duties as a father." "He made mom remarry overseas," "Ruining this home!" "The money we use now... is from my stepfather," "I feel ashamed when I think about it!" "Koko, your mom has remitted money again." "Please return it for me." "Why?" "Now I've found a job," "I should be responsible for all expenditures." "I don't want to use other people's money." "That's not a bad idea!" "I've cooked some vegetable soup for you!" "Not the same soup again!" "I've had it for the past 20 years!" "You look healthy and strong these 20 years, this proves it's good soup!" "Fly, faster than the shuttle, fly..." "Hung...!" "What are you doing, Fat Cat?" "I'm picking these flowers!" "Darkie is still sleeping." "Why doesn't he get up?" "Darkie is dead." "He can still get up!" "Even when I sleep like dead." "Mom still wakes me up." "Let me wake him." "Darkie, it's daybreak, get up!" "Really." "He can't get up!" "He's dead, can't get up anymore!" "Fat Cat, bring Darkie over!" "Together with the coffin!" "Darkie!" "Do you have to bury the dead?" "Yes." "And we can't see him anymore." "Yes." "He can't play with us anymore." "So sad to be dead." "Keung, don't cry!" "Grandma said if we shout 3 times to the sea, and when Poseidon hears it, he will release Darkie" "Let's shout together!" "Come on, together!" "1, 2, 3!" "Darkie..." "He won't be able to hear you like that." "Let me shout for you!" "Darkie..." "That's thunder, let's run...!" "Wait for me...!" "Finish off so early?" "Oh yes, take this and share it with Fat Cat!" "How can I!" "I won't sell it all off anyway!" "Give me one bowl of sweet beancurd!" "Bye...!" "Fat Cat, wash up!" "It's No. 1 typhoon signal!" "Don't fool around, go back home!" "What are you crying?" "It's typhoon, silly boy!" "Keung's Darkie is dead," "I can never see him again." "I am going to the next village, are you coming?" "I have a date with Hung already!" "Only for a while only!" "Good morning, Madam!" "Excuse me, where is Village Wai?" "Village Wai?" "Over there!" "Thank you!" "That road leads to my home." "Not your home, I want Village Wai!" " Fat Cat, what is it?" " She's looking for Village Wai!" "Lad, do you know where Village Wai is?" "Village Wai?" "There!" "Pass the church and the beach." " You can't go wrong there!" " Thank you!" "Madam... good morning!" "Morning!" "What's your name!" "Bye!" "Fat Cat...!" "Fat Cat, aren't we going to play?" "Yes, sure!" "Let's run, the "Flying Tigers" are here!" "That's Fat Cat, he's running fast today." "It's oranges!" "Not selling apples today?" "Excuse me, where is Village Wai?" "Through there, that's the road to the Village." " Thanks!" " Don't mention it!" "Excuse me, is this where Mr. Shing lives?" "Why are you looking for him?" "I am from the Social Welfare Department." "The quarter he applied for 4 years ago is now approved." "I wanted to let him know." "He's gone back to his own village." "Do you know when he will return?" "His ashes are there, how can he return here?" "Nothing for him when he's alive, now he's dead, a vacancy." "Very funny!" "I'm here just for shelter!" "Do come in!" "Here, wipe yourself dry!" "Thanks!" "It's clean!" "I'm back..." "You're all wet." "Lower your head." "Back so late, dry yourself and don't catch a cold." "Hang up those buckets!" "THANKS..." "MONICA!" "SAYONARA!" "Hold back the tears and say good-bye!" "My son is not as clever as normal people, but he's simple." "He's never hurt anyone, not even a dog." "He's cute!" "Most villagers are afraid of him." "Says he's mad!" "This is mentally disabled, not insanity!" "Madam, good morning!" "Still can't remember, such a young lady, don't call her Madam!" "Call her Miss!" "Miss, good morning!" "When it's morning, say good morning!" "Now it's afternoon, not morning!" "I know, good afternoon morning!" "Forget it, he forgets." "I won't." "If it's as pretty as her, then Miss." "If not, Madam!" "Why don't you pour Miss a cup of tea!" "You're blocking me, how can I?" "You're only good at arguing." "Fat Cat, where's your mom?" "Inside!" " Fat Cat's mom!" " Here!" "I want to borrow some salt, mine's all used up." "Fat Cat, get auntie some salt!" "It's ok, I'll help myself!" "Help yourself then!" "Asking your silly son to get it for me, he might pass his insanity over to my family." "I haven't got any container." "I'll bring it back when I finish with it." "Fine." "Miss, have some tea!" "Thanks!" "I am going to watch cartoons!" "Come and take a seat!" "It's ok, I'll stand!" "Suit yourself then!" "Have you tried to give him I.Q. Tests?" "Or tried to apply for the Rehabilitation Centre?" "Test?" "He doesn't like tests." "I can't see why he needs them." "Those centres are really asylums." "Rehabilitation Centre is not an asylum." "It improves their mentality and gives them independence." "What's your surname?" "Cheng!" "I'm very satisfied with my present situation." "Thanks for your concern, Miss Cheng!" "Oh dear, nothing left!" "What's the matter, Fat Cat?" "Lights, TV all black out." "Don't touch!" "You may get an electric shock." "Fat Cat!" "What's the matter?" "Take this to your dad!" "Dad, it's dinner time!" "The egg and vegetables are your favourite." "Fat Cat, get the rice!" "If you don't mind, stay here for a simple meal!" "No, thank you." "Grandma is waiting for me." "The rain won't stop!" " Here, take my umbrella!" " Thanks!" " I'll bring it back tomorrow!" " No need!" "Bye-bye!" "It's raining!" "Be careful!" "Mom's the world's best thing!" "Stop singing, have your dinner!" "Why so late, you're all wet!" "Hurry, have a bath and let's have dinner." "Don't throw it away, I have to return it." "Fat Cat, hurry up, tie it together!" "Get a rope and tie it here." "Take a nylon cloth, there, at the top." "Be careful!" " Are you alright?" " I'm alright!" "Hurry, take your dad's photo." "Close the door!" "Mom, I'm scared, why don't we leave here!" "In this weather, where to?" "Just go to sleep!" "This is damnation!" "If we are meant to suffer, I can't change it." "Life is cheap!" "He's banned from gambling, drinking and loitering." "That's why he is psychologically unstable these days." "Why?" "I can't talk in daytime, but at night, I shout." "Shout?" "What do you shout?" "Oh, hubby...!" "Oh hubby!" "You see, how awful!" "So what do you want us to do this time?" "Another ban, to stop him from molesting me." "If I can have one I won't be here asking for help." "I am sorry, we don't accept this kind of case." "I'll take you to the Adoption Dept." "I hope there is no problem?" "If you take up whatever case you see, you won't have time left." "That woman just resents Social Welfare," "I've put so much effort to make a first step," "I won't pass it to someone else." "If she doesn't want to apply, why push her!" "I have confidence I can change her attitude." "You are only straining yourself." "Actually there are many cases waiting for our help." "You say something, but do something else." "Didn't you say, the staff at the Centre." "Should be conscientious and caring for others." "Now I see a family that needs our help, why are you stopping me?" "Those minor details and job delegation, are they really so well-defined?" "This time, the case is yours." "No more second time!" "You are making me all confused." "If I can really help Fat Cat and his mother," "I'll be very happy!" "I'm afraid your emotions will misguide you." "It's against the principle to give you the case." "If I fail in my own challenge," "I'll surrender." "Stole it?" "No, I have just picked it up!" "Not asking Master Ken's permission, it's theft!" "$50 penalty!" "I have no money." "Alright, 5 punches on your chest!" "Master Ken, Fat Cat is such a nice guy, please don't tease him!" "Why don't you just hit him on his palms and that's it." "Come over then!" "I've asked him to ease the penalty, don't be scared." "The palms might be swollen, but it won't be painful." "Take your hands out!" "No. 2!" "Come here!" "Master Ken!" "Let's have some fun!" "What else is there to add?" "Never knew you're so evil-minded until now." "Want to hurt his palm with this!" "Take mine, it'll save the effort!" "HAPPY!" "Fat Cat... don't worry!" "Two more to go." " Don't be so hard!" " Won't be painful..." "Fat Cat!" "What are you two doing?" "He owes Master Ken money, why can't we hit him?" "One less, it's his gain already!" "Yes, I have gained already!" "Why do you owe him money?" "I picked those planks, they said I owe them $50." "I have no money, so they hit my palm, it's my gain." "Stop bullying him!" "Have manners when talking to our Master Ken." "I don't need manners when talking to you lot." "You said it." "Don't come near!" "Help..." "Who's molesting you Miss?" "Nothing, none of your business." "Strangers, don't interfere!" "Let's go!" "Master Ken, why don't we have a go at her?" "Didn't you see there are so many of them?" "Oh yes, there are so many of them." "Let's go then!" "You're incredible!" "Just one shout, and they're all gone!" "Do they often hit you?" "A lot less today, only once!" "If they hit you again, just shout for help." "Then someone will come for you." "Really?" "How about when mom hits me, can I shout?" "Does your mom hit you too?" "When I'm in the wrong, sure!" " Doesn't your mom hit you?" " No!" "Then your mom doesn't love you." " Who said so?" " My mom!" "But I have a special weapon for this." "What special weapon?" "You have to keep it a secret." "I promise not to tell anyone!" "I can sing in Mandarin "You're a good mom"!" "What's the point?" "When I sing this song, mom will be pleased and won't hit me." "Don't tell anyone that my teacher taught me this." "Who taught you this?" "My teacher!" "Which teacher?" "My teacher!" "What's your teacher's name?" "Hung, everyone knows him." "You don't, how stupid!" "This looks like our umbrella." "It's your mom's." "She lent it to me yesterday." "I'm returning it to you today." " No need!" " Why?" "Hung's mom always borrows but never returns them." "Mom, I am back...!" "Let me, I'll give you a hand!" "Be careful, Fat Cat." "Auntie, I never know he's so powerful." "Only physically." "Free today?" "No work in the office?" "I came to return the umbrella." "No need to return it." "I couldn't have gone home yesterday." "Not a lot, only these few planks." " Why so much blood?" " Hurt my hand!" "So careless, put on some medicine." "Fat Cat, take the umbrella as well." "Auntie, with your present situation." "You can apply for resettlement." "My husband built this house," "I'm willing to stay forever." "Resettlement!" "10 years may pass without any news." "It'll be quicker with Government's council houses." "Council houses aren't cheap nowadays." "Government only protects the rich, we hawkers are always caught by the damn cops." "Government, go to hell!" "You're biased with the Government." "Why don't I apply social security for you?" "I am a Social worker." "I don't need charity." "This is not charity, it's your right." "If you refuse, it's wasted!" "My husband was a teacher in China, he's not qualified to teach here, and was forced to be a carpenter, where's my right then?" "You're useless!" "Mom, don't hit me!" "You're useless, can't do anything," " hurting yourself." " Don't hit him..." "You good-for-nothing!" "Go to hell!" "Auntie, it's not his fault, those gangsters hit his hand." "Honestly, I saw it myself." "Mom's the world's best thing." "Mom's child is like a treasure." "Fall into mom's lap." "What is it?" "Take a seat!" "Mom, how is it?" "Pour me some tea!" "Shall I take you to a doctor?" "No need, I'm fine after taking a rest." "Mom, here's tea!" "Mom, I won't do this again!" "Stand up, it's not your fault!" "If it's not my fault, why did you hit me!" "Fat Cat!" "Remember I mentioned taking him to the Centre..." "I don't want him on other people's hands." "It's bad enough he's in the hands of the villagers?" "The Centre is a very good place." "It gives him a chance to be independent." "You don't want him to go on like this forever!" "Here they work from 9am to 5pm, there's a lecturer to guide them." "The Centre provides lunch." "All of them are happy working here, because everyone is friendly and cheerful." "Not a bit tiring!" "There's pay and transport allowance and rewards." "What's the procedure of joining?" "First, an I.Q. Test." "To test his standard." "If it's suitable and there's a vacancy, he can join in." "Fat Cat!" "Would you like to work in here!" "I love it...!" "What's your name?" "Fat Cat!" "What's your surname?" "Fat Cat!" "I said what's your family name?" "What's yours?" "What's your father's name?" "Daddy!" "How does your mom call him?" "Bad fellow!" "What are you doing?" "I am itchy!" "Can you brush your teeth?" "Yes, I can!" "Then show me!" "I can't" "Why?" "No tooth-brush." "Pretend this finger is the tooth-brush!" "No, I can't brush, not without bristles!" "Pretend it has bristles, will you?" "Ok, yes!" "Then show me!" "Ok, stop brushing!" "Not clean enough!" "Alright, be quick then!" "Clean enough?" "No, I need a rinse!" "I am looking for my son!" "I am normal." "I know you're normal, but he's abnormal." "I'm abnormal!" "Fat Cat is better than you, can't even tell." "Can you shit and pee?" "I use my bum to shit." "And pee with this!" "I'm asking if you can manage it yourself?" "Yes!" "I'll show you how!" "Ok, no need, sit down!" "Listen." "Count and tell me how many blocks are here." "1, 2, 3, 4, 5!" "How many in total?" "5!" "So many, only 5?" "5 rows!" "One row, two rows, three rows, four rows, five rows." "Can you count from 1 to 10." "Yes, sure!" "You can't count?" "I am counting mentally!" "Give me your hands." "Left hand plus right hand, how many fingers!" "Count carefully!" "5!" "5 plus 5 equals 10." "Ain't I correct!" "I thought he'd scored 100." "Scientists have 130-140, we normally score around 100." "Now he has 50, it's the highest in the medium disable section!" "He's half your intelligence, I'm very happy already." "That's No.1 medium class, isn't it?" "No.1, No.1!" "Specialist say they can take care of themselves." "So the subsidy isn't approved, but he can join the Centre." "I'll only let him join next month." "Not yet, he has to queue." "I know it's not that easy." "Not so easy." "I've applied for Social Security, should be ready soon!" "Let's see if he is lucky or not!" "Lucky, lucky!" "Miss Cheng, there!" "Mr. Chow has been here for quite a while." "Orange juice, club sandwich!" "Fat Cat's report is released, so..." "You're too involved!" "I really want to help them." "I never realized their relationship is so close." "Of course, it's human!" " Thanks!" " Don't mention it!" "Koko, look, who's here?" "Mom!" "Koko!" "I miss you!" "You're more and more beautiful." "Don't tease Mom." "When did you arrive?" "Just left the plane." "Koko, I am sorry." "Why do you have to say sorry?" "In every letter you said "I'm sorry"!" "Now, face to face, another "I'm sorry"!" "There's nothing to be sorry about!" "Sorry, my irresponsible father should be sorry!" "But I left you and remarried overseas." "I felt very very guilty." "If I were you, I would do the same." "How does he treat you?" "You're here alone?" "Eric!" "Yes, honey!" "Here, let me introduce you!" "I know her, it's Koko, isn't it?" "He has seen your photo." "Really a beauty, very pretty!" "If I were a bachelor, I would date you." "You've just met, stop teasing her!" "Teasing the first time, but serious the second time!" "He likes to make fun, it's his nature!" "Mature woman needs cosmetics, mature men need jokes." "If not for these, how can they get attention?" "He is also very considerate!" "Really?" "When are you coming over to live with mom?" "What about Grandma?" "I am divorced, and cannot apply for her to go there." "Then I won't go." "I can send her money each month." "Money isn't everything." "Grandma will miss me if I go." "Don't you think I miss you too?" "Mom, is the water in the flask boiled?" "I have to give my wife some medicine!" " Yes, it's boiled!" " Thanks!" "No need to call me "Mom", "Auntie" will do." "Doesn't matter, it's the same!" "You're so polite!" "Grandma said you've got a job." "Yes, as a Social Worker." "Social Worker, it's a spiritual job!" "And works till very late at night." "I am afraid she's a workaholic." "Isn't that worse than a whore?" "Eric!" "I'll fetch some soup!" "Mom," "I've returned your remittance to Australia." "Why?" "Thanks for taking care of us for so long." "Now I've got a job," "I should be taking care of this family." "So you're not forgiving me." "Koko, for your own future, you should go with your mom to Australia!" "I can take care of myself." "Let's talk again after dinner." "That's right, dinner time should be relaxed." "Let me tell you a joke to enhance your appetite." "There's this newly invented satellite, projected to screen the earth's surface, since they didn't want a human to risk it, so they sent a gorilla, that gorilla went round and round in the satellite." "When he returned, he was alright!" "They were very happy and welcomed him back." "Then they asked what he saw." "That gorilla... but unfortunately, they didn't know what he said." "So they went to the zookeeper to interpret." "They asked the zookeeper what was said." "He said the gorilla was dizzy going round and round." "As a result, he didn't see anything!" "Mom, isn't that funny?" "You said it so quickly, I can't follow!" "Yes, a bit too fast." "I have to go to the toilet." "His joke isn't that bad at all!" "Come, let's eat!" "Let me, it's the store delivery." "Mom!" "What are doing here?" "Emergency, give me $300." "Didn't you say you've got a job?" "Lucky I didn't start, it went bankrupt!" "Now I've got a job at a bank." "Working for bank is better than a trading firm!" "Where's my $300 last time?" "I paid the rent with it." "$300 this time for some clothes." "I haven't got any money, come again tomorrow." "No, not tomorrow!" "If you don't leave now, there'll be trouble!" "Koko's in, isn't it?" "Also your wife, and his husband from Australia." "I'll be back tomorrow, to save any embarrassment." "You embarrassed?" "You want money, isn't it?" "Come in!" "Koko, don't!" "What are you afraid of, come in!" "You're back?" "Just arrived today." "Mom, you can still remember him?" "This is my father!" "A jobless ruined father." "A father who made his wife remarry overseas." "A father who's always after Grandma's money." "A father who's not qualified to be a father!" "Don't say that!" "He's here only for $300 for new clothes." "Grandma, you've spoiled him all along!" "And he has cheated you all along, you still trust him?" "Don't go, stand still!" "You can't leave, not without having dinner." "You aren't giving me face." "What's your name, mine's Eric!" "What shall I call you?" "He's my mother's husband!" "That's really close." "So you're my..." "The weather's fine today." "Sorry, I have to leave now!" "Aren't you here for $300?" "Here, I've got it!" "$300 for you not quite enough, isn't it!" "Here $1,000, take it, pal!" "Take it, don't be shy!" "I really need the money." "I'll see you out." "Let me know if it's not enough!" "Very tall and handsome!" "Let me tell you a joke before dinner." "Eric!" "Let me begin, I used to have a friend..." "Stop it!" "The weather's fine today!" "Thunder, that's good, we can see lightening!" "Lesson 10." "Chung Yeung Festival!" "9 Sept." "Chung Yeung Festival." "Fresh weather," "Hung, play ball with me!" "Go away, wait for me at the back!" "Waves of autumnal winds, make travellers refreshed!" "Students, read it yourself." "Oh dear!" "Idiot." "Itch?" "Let me scratch for you!" "Help...!" "Run?" "Do you think our Master Ken is gay?" "!" "Stop yelling!" "Let's run!" "I want to get that ball back!" "Let us help you then!" "What a good figure!" "Haul him up!" "Let me go...!" "Fat Cat!" " Miss, help me!" " Are you alright?" "Fat Cat." "What are you doing?" "He said to get the ball back!" "So we are helping him to get up there!" "Let him down!" "If I do what you say, I'll lose face." "Master Ken, if she says so, why don't you do it?" "No, I won't!" "But since I'm in a good mood, I'll be a gentleman." "Release him!" "Yes, Master Ken!" "Fat Cat" "How are you?" "Fat Cat!" "You are inhuman, go to hell!" "Hitting our Master Ken!" "I, Jackson Ken, is master of this village," "I can rape you, you know?" "Don't have her by yourself!" "Let's share her among us." "Right!" "Help!" "Help!" "Don't come near!" "Help...!" "Don't move!" "Cops, let's run!" "Miss, are you alright?" "I'm fine!" "You've got to be careful here!" "Those three like to stir things up." "Thank you!" "Miss...!" "Is it painful?" "Miss, it hurts!" " Let me!" " Thanks!" "Go away, damn cop!" "Fat Cat, what is it?" "Mom said they are bad guys!" "Can't catch thieves, but always after my mom when she's hawking on the streets." "There are bad and good cops, they aren't the same." "They are the same!" "Who said so?" "They all wear the same uniform." "Sorry, he's mentally disabled." "You know it's wrong to tell people off." "When he catches mom, mom will cry at night." "Don't loosen it!" "Why?" "Only having your legs tied, is very comfortable." "Darkie!" "Miss, help me shout to Poseidon." "Darkie!" "What are you doing?" "Miss, you are beautiful!" "Remember, Fat Cat!" "Boys can't touch girls so casually." "If you do it again, I won't see you again." "I'll forgive you this time!" "Miss touches me...!" "Have a sweet!" "My dad used to work here, very smart too." "But after the fire, nobody works here anymore." "Mom told me." "Dad is very sad and doesn't return." "He went and kicked the bucket and earned big money!" "Later he will return with a lot of money." "Tarzan's here...!" "Superman's here!" "Miss, do you know." "A lot of people come here, but I don't know what for." "They are to pray to Holy Mary for blessings." "Holy Mary is so incredible!" "If you don't do evil things, and pray sincerely, Holy Mary will bless you." "I know she's very generous." "Don't say that!" "It's true." "Often, there are food rations." "Where's Holy Mary?" "There, she's Holy Mary." "And he's Jesus." "Jesus is Mary's son." "That's incorrect!" "Why?" "The bearded should be the father." "There's one up there, with a hat." "Those are thorns, very painful." "Very painful?" "Yes!" "Jesus, do you read comics?" "Fat Cat, don't be like that!" "Crazy!" "You're crazy!" "You are crazy, Jesus!" "Miss Cheng, coffee?" "No thanks!" "Are you sure?" "To wait three years for the Centre?" "Council house - god knows when." "Mr. Chow, is there a quicker way?" "For Social Security, only takes 3 weeks!" "Have to wait for so long, what can I say to the mother and son?" "Miss Cheng, we have 157,600 cases waiting for our help." "I've faced them for 3 years." "What do you think my feelings are?" "Don't you think I want to settle them too?" "But Fat Cat's case is special." "Can he queue first?" "There are worst cases than Fat Cat's." "Who also need our help desperately." "If I let him queue first, what can I say to the rest of the other cases?" "There's an alternative." "I've got an uncle who owns a restaurant in N.T." "If he doesn't mind, he can be a dishwasher there." "Mom, we're back!" "Miss bought us something we haven't had for ages." "What is it?" "Shrimps, each one is alive and jumping, look!" "All asleep now!" "Miss Cheng, told you not to waste your money." "I didn't, auntie!" "I'm here for dinner!" "You're so kind!" "Auntie, why doesn't he know his father is dead?" "When you've earned US dollars, come back to us." "Fat Cat and mom are missing you." "There are many things he doesn't know." "Might as well not let him, give him some hope." "Come, let me help!" "There's something I am sorry to tell you." "Fat Cat has to wait for 3 years for the Centre." "Let him wait!" "Thank you for your kindness to the two of us." "But I've found him a dishwasher job at a restaurant." "Let him try, it's simple." "I'm afraid he's no good, you might get blamed!" "He hasn't tried, how do you know he's no good." "Yes, no good not trying!" "Shut up!" "I know dishwashing...!" "Pay is slightly cheaper, but it's an easy job." "If you don't mind, give it a try here." "Thanks, Mr. Chow sends his regards." "No need for small talk." "This is Kay, who has worked here for several years." "If you have any queries, just ask her." "Thanks, uncle!" "Kay!" "Fat Cat, greet Auntie Kay." "Auntie Kay, good morning." "He's slightly retarded, please keep an eye on him." "No problem..." "It's an easy job, shouldn't be any problem." "Just tell him to do what I do and that's it." "Thank you." "Fat Cat, work hard here, ok!" "I'll come back later this afternoon." " Be careful, bye!" " Bye!" "Fat Cat, come over here!" "Whatever I do, just follow me and that's it." "What are you doing?" "I can't see what you're doing, how can I do it!" "Take the money, here..." "Thanks!" "Why are you not yourself today?" "Fat Cat got a dishwasher job at a restaurant." "Today is his first day." "You should have let him try sooner." "Always treating him like a kid and he'll never learn." "That's true!" "Stop worrying." "I am still worried, I have to see him." "Nobody washes like you do." "Wet all over, just like walking off a swimming pool." "Fat Cat, bring the clean crockery inside." "Yes, right away." "Fat Cat, hurry, take them inside!" " Fat Cat." " Miss." "Are you happy here?" "Happy..." "You're here to help, too?" "I'm worried, so I've come." "He's doing well, stop worrying." "Miss!" "What's the matter?" "Oh, nothing!" "Silly boy, always forgetful." "Silly kid!" "All to pieces." "Are you hurt?" "I'm alright!" "You really are crazy!" "Stop it, go back inside!" "Uncle!" "Look at this, what's more to say." "I'm really sorry." "Oh, forget it." "Give $300 to the till as fine." "Boss..." "Silly kid, don't be like this!" "Auntie, I'm sorry." "Don't, I expected this." "Expected this!" "What is it?" "Mom, what is it?" "Shall I take you to a doctor?" "Just a tummyache, I'll be alright when I take a rest." "Let's go..." "Fat Cat, take those home!" "I've come for $500 to buy some furniture." "I've just found a spiritual job, as a church's caretaker, looking after the surroundings." "I won't ask for money ever again." "I've spoiled you, now's the result." "Take it, there's my life, take it with you as well." "Stop running!" "You're back!" "He's here for money again?" "For the last time!" "He said he got a spiritual job at the church." "No wonder I saw dead fish who can swim today." "What a liar!" "Yes, what a liar!" "I forgot to brew the tea, washing the dishes, too." "I've forgotten everything." " Thanks, Fat Cat" " Bye-bye..." " Thanks, Hung, goodbye." " Bye-bye..." " Fat Cat!" " Miss, good morning!" "Where's your mom?" "Mom's not feeling well!" "So she told me to be on my own today." "So obedient, oh, all sold out already?" "Yes, all sold out!" "How much did you get!" "A lot!" "What, the whole bucket for only $5?" "Hung and the other kids had 5 bowls." "They said they'll repay me when they earn money." "Master Ken and the others had 30, said it's toll." "What's toll?" "I don't know, they said it." "Let's go back to see your mom." "We're back, the sweet beancurd all sold out." "Auntie, how are you feeling?" "I'm alright, thanks." "Fat Cat, finish off already?" "Yes, finish off." "How much did you get?" "Fat Cat, stop lying." "Exactly how much did you get?" "Speak up, or else I'll hit you!" "Sold it for $5." "How about this $200." "Miss gave it to me." "She told me not to tell you!" "Miss Cheng!" "Auntie!" "I'm happy for your visits," "I'm also grateful for your help." "But if you give us charity and donations, then, don't come here ever again!" "I'm sorry!" "You, can't even keep a secret." "Mom, Miss is telling me off for not lying." "Won't help you the next time." "We've banned your husband from gambling, drinking, smoking, loitering at night, womanizing, and unwilful molesting you." "Why are you still crying?" "These bans made him miserable." "So he committed suicide last night." "Committed suicide?" "Yes, he took 3 bottles of my pills, now he's resting in the hospital." "Ms Chan, please withdraw all the bans, we'll try to compromise for the rest of our lives." "If you thought of this, the pills won't be wasted." "Come in." "Can you open the door for me please?" "Miss asked to bring these in." "Put it there please." "This young man is cute and plump." "What are you doing?" "This is manners." "If people are nice to you, be nice to them too." "You're also cute and plump." "Goodbye." "Madam, goodbye." "Good to have it in this weather, it can also help Fat Cat." "Who else wants sweet beancurd?" "I want another one." "One bowl, no problem, coming up." "I haven't got one, I just returned." "Ok, 2 bowls." "Fat Cat, give them two bowls." "On the double?" "Yes, on the double." " Here's an empty bowl" " Thank you!" "Don't go, I'll give you the money." "No need." "No need to pay?" "All of them no need to pay?" "Today, all of you don't have to pay." "Then thank you." "Don't thank me, thank Mr. Chow!" "Thank you Mr. Chow!" "He doesn't know it yet!" "Thanking me, what for?" "Excuse me, Miss, yours." "Who gave him permission to sell here?" "I did!" "Come and see me in my office." "So what?" "Nothing to be afraid of!" "Right, nothing to be afraid of!" "Yes, nothing to be afraid of!" "Who put it here?" "You knocked it over, none left for you!" "You, come here!" "Why are you so mad?" "This is an office." "You can't lose your temper today!" "Today's your birthday!" "Smile!" "Or you scare Fat Cat off!" "Happy birthday to you..." "Cheers!" "What wish did you make?" "I won't tell you." "Fooling me?" "Who's yelling?" "Koko, Koko!" "Yelling so loud, did she see a mouse?" "Mouse, I'm afraid of mouse!" "There's no mouse here, only a monkey." "Never heard you're got a monkey here." "His master is away, so we're keeping it for a few days." "Monkey is very lustful." "Why are you pointing at me?" "Have you mistaken a monkey for a gorilla?" "Gorilla can rape girls!" "Let's go and see for ourselves!" "I should have kept one." "Wait, let me warn her." "Grandma, be careful yourself!" "I'm 60 odd, the gorilla won't like me." "Koko, stop playing with the monkey!" "If he's hungry, stuff his mouth with a banana!" "It's alright." "Let's resume!" "Now what?" "What's on your mind?" "No more sound inside." "That animal must like banana." "Using a banana to stuff him, how can he talk?" "Your mouth, no banana here, or else, I can stuff yours." "Any way to help Fat Cat's case?" "I've told you, don't mix business with emotions." "In the office, it's business, now here's the bedroom, let's talk bedroom business." "I noticed you're now taking your job as a means of making money, no more enthusiasm." "Oh no, after tonight, I'll be enthusiastic." "You haven't answered me!" " Stop asking me!" " Don't!" "Haven't you had enough." "The whole night." "Why not if I have a chance!" "Grandma, I'm leaving!" "He's Koko's boyfriend, Mr. Chow." "The Gorilla..." "Come back soon!" "Have a nice time yourself!" "Thank you!" "Very smart, too bad he has a limp." "As long as it's stylish, what's the problem?" "Who do you want?" "Who?" "Wait for a second!" "Go away!" "Someone called and said a Fat Cat is missing, the very fat one." "Auntie!" "Are you Miss Cheng?" " Where is Auntie?" " Inside!" "No need to stand!" "Please help me look for Fat Cat." "He disappeared after dinner." "Don't you two want to come back home?" "Ok, coming!" "Take a rest, alright!" " Thank you!" " Don't mention it!" "Let me pour you some tea!" "There's gold here or did she ask you to stay the night." "I took some apples over, let's go!" "Mind you language, watch your tongue!" "Do you know how long you've been there?" "When I saw her, she had fainted on the floor." "So we put her on her bed and waited for her." "You fainted when you saw her!" " You're crazy!" " Actually, it's his son who's crazy." "I'm afraid Hung will be infected." "Be careful, sit over there!" "I'll get you some tea." "You sit down, sit down!" "Everyone said my son's insane, so my husband built this house farther away." "Some people are like that." "When I first knew Fat Cat is mentally disabled," "I really wanted to strangle him." "So he doesn't have to suffer." "But my husband said I chose to give birth to him, but I have no right to kill him." "He's my husband's treasure, so I brought him up under any hardship." "I must find him, not because of my husband, it's because I can't live without him." "I'll go and find him now." "Excuse me, have you seen Fat Cat?" "Who's Fat Cat?" "I am sorry!" "Excuse me, have you seen Fat Cat." "Miss...!" "What are you doing here?" "Your mom is looking for you all night." "She's had tummyache all day and cannot eat." "I came here to ask Holy Mary's blessings." "Miss, come and pray to Holy Mary with me, for mom." "We're back!" "Don't be frightened, I'm here!" "This is a hospital!" "Miss, have a sweet!" "The sweet is delicious!" "Fat Cat, here's the doctor!" "Doctor, how is she?" "Who are you?" "I'm her friend, he's her son." "Her son!" "Why did you bring her so late?" "The germs have spread all over her body." "What's your diagnosis?" "Don't you know?" "It's cervical cancer." "It's too late now." "Miss, do I have it too?" "You better go in and hear her last words." "Thanks!" "Come let's go!" "Hurry!" " Mom!" " Aunt!" "Mom, it's cold here, let's leave!" "Mom's tired, let me sleep for a while first." "Why didn't you tell me?" "I've been poor all my life, but I have never begged anyone before." "Now, I'm begging you." "Don't worry!" "If I can do it, I'll help you." "Give Fat Cat a new life, a new road." "I can run, very fast too!" "Silly boy!" "He's destined to suffer in his life." "Mom, mom, don't cry." "Never mind, I am a good boy." "Mom's the world's best thing!" "Mom's child is a treasure." "Be obedient to Miss." "I will listen to her." "I'll be obedient to mom, and to Miss, too." "Mom, you want water?" "Auntie!" "Doctor!" "Hurry up, doctor, quick!" "Auntie!" "I'm sorry!" "Auntie..." "Auntie..." "Mom, don't cover her up." "It'll suffocate her." " Mom, drink some water..." " Fat Cat!" "Don't be like this!" "Mom, listen to me!" "Your mom is dead." "I'm not lying, your mom is dead!" "Mom is like Darkie." "I can never see her again." "Mom, don't die!" "I'm obedient, mom, don't die!" "Mom!" "Mom, I cooked this egg, have more rice." "I'll listen to Miss, don't worry." "When dad returns and brings back US dollars." "I won't be miserable anymore." "Mom..." "Koko!" "Come in!" "No dinner all night, have some soup then!" "I've had this for the past 20 years." "Leave it if you don't like it." "Grandma, your "Love Brand" vegetable soup is nice." "Don't exaggerate, I don't want to cry too!" "Is father living in the church?" "He hasn't come here for money, don't scold him." "No, I just want to talk to him!" "Dad!" "Don't go!" "I just want to talk to you!" " Let me help myself!" " Alright!" "How many sugar?" "Thanks!" "I might be wrong, let me try." "Have you got used to work in here?" "Excellent, the church is so tidy," "I did it myself." "Father always praises me for being responsible." "I say he is wrong." "The church is untidy, where?" "I am saying you have no sense of responsibility." "It's just a matter of opinion." "Your mom is also responsible for the divorce." "You're not married, you won't understand." "What about Grandma and I?" "We three have a blood relationship, no matter how wrong I am, you'll forgive me." "Do you think this is fair?" "Occasionally, I do apologize to Grandma!" "You've never apologized to me." "You're my daughter, you won't blame me." "But I do!" "I've brought you up, gave you a house, educated you, you still blame me?" "The house was given to Grandma by Grandpa." "It's mom and Grandma's credit for bringing me up." "When have you carried out a father's duties?" "I do visit you very often." "To ask Grandma for money!" "I was forced to do so." "It's just an excuse!" "Can you forget the past?" "If you don't apologize," "I'll never forgive you!" "It hurts." "When you're pushing me like this." "The way you treat Grandma, do you think she's happy?" "Do you still remember I'm your father?" "Is it a rule that a father can escape his duties?" "Since you didn't carried your duties, why did you give birth to me?" "Ashamed in apologizing." "We're human beings!" "Have you ever treated us as human beings?" "You're never given us our human rights, have you?" "Koko...!" "I am sorry, I am wrong!" "Forgive me!" "I'm asking you to treat me like a father." "I just wish you can treat me like your case." "You still come to see us off, even so late!" "I'll have to wait for a long time to see you again." "Mom, I can't be your side to take care of you," "I am really sorry!" "You can come and see me occasionally." "I am very happy already!" "Have you decided not to join me in Australia?" "I notice a very funny thing." "I am a Social Worker in the Family Service Dept., handling family problems." "In reality, my family also have problems, it requires my care and help." "So I've decided to stay." "If you've decided, I won't force you." "If you need anything, just let me know." "Yes, come over for your honeymoon." "If you've no money, I'll be generous." " No, not being generous!" " Eric!" "No, I'm wrong again, how stupid of me!" "Thank you for taking care of my mom." "Don't mention it." "It's my duty." "Where's the camera?" "Where's your father?" "I don't think he is coming." "Sorry, I'm late." "Better late than never." "Let's take a photo over there." "For you!" "It's really funny." "From the day I dated you, married, even divorce," "I've never given you flowers." "Now at the airport, I suddenly thought of them." "The florist told me that giving roses represent love." "Especially 11, it's for the one you love." "So here's 11 roses." "There won't be another woman in my life." "Who can replace you in my heart." "Why didn't you say this before?" "I..." "I didn't know it before, what's more, I wouldn't say it" "Now I've learnt it, but it's too late!" "Let's take a photo together!" "Pal!" "What is it?" "Pal!" "I'm warning you, I've treated her badly already, if you mistreat her again, I won't forgive you." "Pal, don't worry," "I'll treat her nicely." "Don't smoke, drink, gamble, womanize, or else, it's very easy to lose a good wife." "No, I don't do any of those things." "Only occasionally playing bridge, nothing else." "This is your $1,000, take it back." "No need, keep it!" "Ok, why not?" "HK dollars are stable now." "It's time to board now." " Good landing!" " Thank you." "Mom, goodbye!" "Goodbye." "The weather is cool now, take care!" "You too, be careful!" "I will!" "The plane won't wait for us, goodbye!" "Hurry up, quick, we might miss it, bye!" "Bye...!" "Boarding card!" "Fat Cat!" "Fat Cat, let's get some insects, are you coming?" "He's not in a good mood, leave him alone." " Let's go, bye!" " Goodbye!" "Pretending to be depressed?" "No greeting to Master Ken!" "Want to leave too!" "Catch him and let him play with us." "Come here!" "Through here!" "Are we giving you a hard time?" "No!" "Have you called me yet?" "Master Ken, I want to go home!" "What home?" "Your mom's dead, so is your dad!" "Liar, he's kicking his bucket in U.S.A." "So loud?" "Talking to our Master Ken!" "Kicked one's bucket means dead." "Do you know your mom slept with others." "You're lying!" "She slept with me every night." "When you're asleep, she slept with others." "You're lying, you liars!" "Hit me, come, come on!" "What is it, you disagree?" "Your mom had slept with all the male villagers." "That's why she deserved to die." "Hitting my Master Ken!" "Fat Cat...!" "You damn lot, bullying Fat Cat again." "Go to hell!" "You're insane!" "Don't hit me!" "Stop it!" "Don't come near!" "Fat Cat, take the knife away, take it away first!" "If I do, you will bully me again!" "No, I won't, just take it away!" "I don't trust you lot!" "I am not lying!" "You're lying, you're cheating me!" "Take the knife away, and I'll never bully you." "Don't move, I'm the police!" "Fat Cat!" "Damn cops, don't come near!" "Sir, I've never seen him so mad before." "Stand up!" "Calling control...!" "Here, beef noodles, I've just learnt it." "Looks delicious!" "Koko, compromise, or else, it'll be difficult to face him forever." "Who's going to face forever?" "Let me take it!" "Koko, I'm not smart, but you should be." "If you can forgive me!" "Why can't you forgive him?" "I dislike the way he does things." "Koko, it's Mr. Chow!" "Just say I'm not in!" "He said that Fat Cat is in trouble again." "There's nothing to see, please leave." "Step back, there's nothing here!" "Excuse me..." "I am the Social Worker," "Your Inspector called me here." "Miss Cheng, you have to help Fat Cat." "I know!" "Please follow me, you take guard!" "Koko!" "Sir, Miss Cheng the Social Worker is here!" "Ok, you can leave!" "Yes sir!" "Do you know a mentally retarded named Fat Cat?" "He's my client." "He has taken a man called Master Ken as hostage." "We want to know about Fat Cat." "Fat Cat is a simple boy, also an obedient son." "Has never done anything harmful to anybody." "These three always hit him." "Perhaps it's his mother's recent death." "That caused this to happen." "Thank you for your information, we know what to do." "Sir, I want to go in and see him." "No, we're responsible for your safety." "Who's responsible for the men's safety inside?" "Sir, please let us help!" "At least we know more about his life." "And temperament." "The police have specialists to handle the retarded." "But those specialists don't know anything about him." "What's more, Fat Cat is biased towards the police." "Give us a chance, I think we might be successful." "We have to have permission from the Superintendent." "You don't have to go in there!" "I am worried about you, and Fat Cat as well!" "The Superintendent gave you only 10 minutes." "Remember your own safety first." "If he hurts the hostage, he'll be convicted." "Thanks!" "Fat Cat!" "I am Miss!" "Calm down!" "Miss!" "Miss!" "Fat Cat, why did you do it?" "They bullied me!" "Come on, let me down." "They hit me as well!" "Don't you know you can't do this." "It's illegal, you have to go to jail." "They didn't let me go home." "Called me silly boy!" "If you're in jail, you can't enter the Centre." "Didn't you say you like to join the Centre?" "I don't like to be a silly boy!" "You aren't silly, you're a clever boy!" "You really are a clever boy!" "Fat Cat, you're a clever boy!" "Really, I am a clever boy!" "Your mom always praised your cleverness." "Mom is dead!" "I can't see her again!" "Fat Cat..." "Who do you obey the most?" "Mom, I'll also be obedient to Miss." "Do you know what you have done." "Will make mom and Miss very upset?" "Why did you do it?" "They even called the damn cops to arrest me." "They aren't here to arrest you, they've left!" "My dad's kicked the bucket, and they said he's dead!" "Listen to me, your dad has already..." "Returned!" "I haven't lied." "Your dad has come back." "If he has, why didn't he come and see me?" "He's outside!" "He knew what you've done and was very upset." "He told me if you don't behave, he won't have you." "I am obedient, I really am!" "If you are, then release him." "After releasing, you can go out and see your dad." "You don't believe me, ask Miss Cheng." "Has he really returned?" "He has kicked the bucket and earned a lot of money!" "Then Fat Cat doesn't have to be so sad again." "You won't be sad again." "To sleep alone, I'm scared!" "Your dad is back, you don't have to be scared." "Give the rope to Miss Cheng!" "Give the rope to her and you can see your dad." "Fat Cat, give me the rope." "Miss has never cheated you before, isn't it?" "Didn't you promise your mom to obey me?" "Come on, give me the rope." "Don't you want to see your father outside?" "Come, Fat Cat, your father is waiting for you out there!" "Come, give me the rope!" "I'll tell dad that they've always bullied me." "Koko...!" "It's alright...!" "Fat Cat!" "Don't go outside!" "Dad...!" "Damn cops...!" "Fat Cat...!" " Let me go!" " Let her go!" "Let them see him!" "Yes sir..." "Fat Cat!" "Dad doesn't want me, am I disobedient?" "No, not your fault!" "Miss, I am obedient to you." "I know, I know!" "Fat Cat..." "Miss, you're beautiful!" "Fat Cat..." "You can't catch any thieves, he's mentally retarded, damn cops!" " Koko..." " He's mentally retarded!" "Why did you fire at him?" "He's insane, isn't he!" "Do you know one bullet have wasted all the efforts?" "You, follow me!" "Quick!" "Have you considered carefully?" "If I accept your resignation, you'll regret it." "I will never regret it." "I don't want the same thing to happen again." "Hurt so easily?" "You've done your best and shouldn't be guilty." "What's the point of doing my best?" "To fail, it's worse than not starting at all." "I have been doing this job for 8 years, and I've never tried to escape." "I know you are steadfast." "I vowed, even when I see one, I won't handle it." "Kids, what are you doing?" "Let's run!" "Are you alright?" "Good morning!" "What's your name?" "Mousey!" "You...!" "Mousey, where do you live?" "Asking me, where are you from?" "Mousey, don't be frightened." "I'm from the Family Services Dept." "I'm Miss Cheng." "Do you know what the Family Services do?" "Government?" "Tell them to go to hell!"
