Ten?

Oh my goodness.

- What? - What?

I'm not good at this.

Your try Matthew.

It’s a bit boring, right?

You want to play some card games?

- Yeah, let's do it. - Okay.

Pick a card.

Wow.

Something scary.

It’s going to a haunted house.

Where? Haunted house?

Yeah.

- The most haunted place in Hong Kong? - Of course.

Mount Davis.

Do or drink? I’m drinking for sure.

I'm not going. I'm not going.

Are you scared?

Are you guys scared?

Yeah, of course, I'm scared.

Why? - I’m not going. - You're not going?

No. No way.

I think, my mom will kill me if I go.

We got to go, otherwise... Just drink.

You’re already drinking?

Okay, well... I guess, I could...

- Come on. You pass? - I’ll pass.

You pass. How about you?

So it's only going to be legit if two or three people are going there.

So you're going?

No, no, not, not, no, no.

I'm good. I'm good, I'm good, I'm good.

I think the less people go, the more...

exciting it will be.

I go, since you guys all chickened out.

I can go. I'll call two more friends.

Chicken out?

Yes, you guys chickened out.

I call some more friends.

You know, I support you with everything, but not like this.

I cannot... beg your pardon?

It's too much for me.

I'll call two girlfriends. Hey,

we are drinking right now and they're saying to go to

Mount Davis for a haunted experience.

Are you down?

Why not? Why not? Come on.

Okay.

Okay, cool. So meet us there.

We're going right now.

See you soon, bye.

Let's go.

Well, since you guys chickened out. Let's go.

Okay, you guys have fun.

I'm bringing my drinks, for sure.

- Alright, have fun. - We'll see you on the other side.

- You guys have fun. - Change your mind.

I won't change my mind.

- You call us if you need help. - Exactly.

- Alright. - See you on the other side?

It's really quite crazy to play games with spiritual stuff.

I mean, I don't think they should try, but...

I just think you shouldn't disturb anything

that isn’t from our world. So...

[car engines]

Yeah.

Come on, girls.

- Yeah. - Come on.

I can't wait but I'm also a little bit scared

But no worries here.

I'm a bit scared too But let's do it.

Let's do it.

Follow me, okay?

I will protect you girls.

Yeah, you protect us.

I am strong, guys.

- Wow. Let's check this out. - Yes.

I don't see anything.

Not yet. But soon.

- Oh no. - Is it even real? I don’t believe it.

- Is it on the left side? - Left side?

It’s so dark here.

But there's nothing here.

What do you want? What do you want to see?

Oh my God. You scared us.

- Really? Isn’t that what you guys want? - Wait, wait, wait.

There.

Oh shit.

What is this?

- Ghost. - It’s a tree.

- It's a tree. - No.

This is a trick.

No. 456.

I never believed in ghosts and I never had any experience with that.

Besides, I got three girls going with me,

This could never go wrong, right?

There's nothing. There's nothing. Seriously.

- Wait. - Wait, there is something.

Yeah. - No, no, no. - Turn to the right side a bit.

Oh, nothing.

There's nothing, there's nothing. There’s nothing here.

Nothing here?

You see in front? There's, like... There's like what?

- A ghost. - What?

No, that's not it. Go! Keep going, keep going.

No, no, no. - You see that shadow there? - Yeah.

- Oh shit. You see a shadow?

No, I don't see anything right now.

Yeah.

Oh it’s so dark, yeah.

Oh my God.

This house is so famous in Hong Kong.

- I know. - So scary.

Let's go in there.

- No, no, no. - That’s right.

- I can’t. - It looks bad.

- Not a good idea, Adrienne. - Oh, really?

No, but seriously, if you go up there, this is the most famous haunted place in Hong Kong.

I don't want you guys to go there.

- I do not. - But at least it’s an open area.

Inside, you don't even know if we can get back out.

But this is the most haunted place in Hong Kong.

Oh my gosh. I can't do that.

Are you sure?

Yeah.

I’m so scared.

What is this?

No. Is it ...?

Everything’s fine.

No seriously. I really don't think you should go in there

- Yeah, let’s just leave. - I really don’t wanna go down there.

Let's just go out.

No, no, no, no.

No!

Let's just go, Matthew.

- Wait. - What is wrong with him?

Hey, hey, girls.

Oh my God.

[yelling]

- Are you okay? - What?

Go, go, go.

- Let’s get out of here! - Oh my God!

Oh my God. I was really scared when I saw Matthew throw up.

I mean, I didn't know what was happening to him, was he ...?

I've never believed in supernatural things.

So when they said, let's go ghost hunting, I wasn't scared at all.

But then when Matthew started vomiting, I was so, so shocked.

I totally freaked out with them.

So... I was quite scared on the spot.

But when I calmed myself down,

I thought to myself, well, Matthew got so sick there.

But then, was it real or did he fake it?

Behind the fact that he has a crush on Adrienne,

did he try to get more attention from her?

Is he genuine?

I was feeling so bad for a few days.

When I was at the mountain,

I was influenced by something.

I have no idea what it was.

It was terrible feeling.

I couldn’t stand it.

Wandering spirits from all sides, please avoid us!

Wandering spirits from all sides, please avoid us!

Wandering spirits from all sides, please avoid us!

Wandering spirits from all sides, please avoid us!

So Matthew called me up

and said that he wasn't feeling well for a few days after he vomited.

And so I was really worried.

I actually thought we need to find a Taoist master to help him out.

Wandering spirits from all sides, please avoid us.

Wandering spirits from all sides, please avoid us.

Why were you playing around?

There are some places you aren’t allowed go to, so don't go!

You are in big trouble now.

I have asked them to come out,

offered incense, and apologized.

There's a reason they stay here.

There are still some places you can't enter, or you will break the rules again.

Now, they are angry.

Sorry...

Offer incense

and apologize.

I'm really feeling unwell. Can you hurry up?

You’re feeling its presence, right?

Offer incense first.

Apologize now.

Sorry...

Sorry...

Sincerely apologize.

Burn the “hell money”.

They are here.

It’s not helping.

I really don't feel well.

I am not OK.

I feel sick.

It will be over soon.

Are you OK?

I’m feeling a bit better.

Then let’s get out.

[ominous music]

After I saw the master,

I feel so much better. I swear to God I will never do it again.

Was the situation really that serious?

And was Matthew actually that sick?

Adrienne had to find a master to do all the drama, and was it necessary?

Well, I guess it's always good to have a peace of mind.

[dance music]

[dance music cont.]

Oh my God, so exciting.

I like your outfit. My God, What is this?

- What is this? - That is so cool.

That's so cool.

Yeah.

Are you a champion?

Very nice, cool.

I know there’s loads of crazy people.

Wow.

Look at this, so cute.

Look at that funny rabbit.

Hey, what's your name?

- Hey. - Can we hang out sometime?

Hey, hey, hey. It’s a bit too much, okay?

Stop it. You don't know him, right?

No, I don't know him.

Feels a bit dangerous with this drunk guy here.

Oh, is okay.

He’s just a little drunk, yeah.

Everyone will do that, I'd like to protect you.

He’s so protective, right?

That’s so sweet.

Let’s go drink.

Let’s go, let’s go.

A superhero.

Every time

when Adrienne needs to be rescued, he's gonna be there, okay.

He will rush out and save the princess sort of thing.

So, yeah, I think he's a very good guy.

I really like him a lot.

- Happy Halloween. Cheers guys. - Cheers.

Happy Halloween.

Why didn't you guys wear some costumes?

I know, it’s very cute. You should wear a costume, too.

You too.

He should have taken off his clothes.

Shirt off.

Superhero. Superhero, right?

- I will. Yeah. - Yeah?

I use the restroom first, and then when I come back take off your shirt.

Okay, alright.

- Oh my God, so much to drink tonight. Cheers. - I know, cheers.

- Cheers. - Drink more.

There are so many people inside,

but I sometimes just need some fresh air.

I just wanna have a chat with you.

There are so many things that have been going on lately.

But you know me.

My story is, I always meet assholes.

I always meet Playboys.

I seem to attract the Playboy type. You know what I mean?

I mean, Perry is a bad boy type, so we're friends.

Yeah, with Matthew...

I actually think Matthew has really good qualities.

I like his whole personality, even the qualities.

But, but, you're always, like, but.

I think Matthew is actually a very cool guy.

But for me, I had so many failed relationships before,

so I really have to get to know someone better first.

You have too high expectations.

Sometimes, I think it’s my problem.

I think you have this imaginary guy that you think you're going to meet.

And I feel you really want someone that you love and you're passionate with.

- Yeah. Yeah. - Maybe, you just feel like...

I love his qualities, but he doesn't give me that

heart-pump-feeling, you know what I mean? That really passionate..

- It's hard to find a heart-pump-feeling guy. - I know.

What category would you expect the most from a guy, though?

- Career, the charm? - Everything, career, charm.

- Looks, six pack. - Good in bed.

Yeah. Yeah, Yeah.

I should tell my husband to get a six pack, too.

Your husband looks good. He's tall.

At least he has some kind of qualities, right?

Do you still have that heart-pump-feeling?

No heart-pump-feelings, but it's like,

wow, he's so charming, that kind of thing.

Especially when he's a really good father, when he's really good with the kids.

I’ll be, like, wow.

That is the feeling that I want.

I want to look at him and be like, “Oh my god”.

But you need to spend some time.

I don't know, but you got everything settled now.

You froze your eggs and then...

Right, at least I've decided for sure, to freeze my eggs, so I can buy myself some time.

I guess you can

just wait.

I think it's time for me to change my mentality.

Because if I always think like this, I'll forever be single.

Because then no matter who comes along, I will still want to look for a better person.

Too strong. Too independent.

- Yeah. - I don’t know.

Or I want to check every box.

In real life, you cannot check every single box.

- Nobody’s perfect. - Exactly.

So maybe, I think I need to somehow change my mind a little bit, right?

Since I've been looking for so long, and I'm still looking,

maybe I just focus on my career.

- Yeah, focus, because you’ve been doing that. - I mean, that's what I've been doing.

I know, I know I've been doing that.

But I feel, like, I'm losing hope again.

It's okay. I’m here.

So good to have you.

- I know, friends are forever. - Yeah, forever.

You always come out and help me.

I'm always here, around you, always here.

- So no matter what, I'm here. Yeah. - Any time?

So sweet.

Lovebirds.

A kiss on the cheek?

I don't really think too much of it because it's just normal social etiquette.

It's very normal these days.

- Cheers. - Because, I was just thanking him.

Just now, in that situation, he's always around to save me and help me, right?

I think you should try to cast for a superhero movie.

[ethnic music]

In Chinese culture,

sometimes we go to the temple to draw lots, which is drawing a fortune stick

to see where your fortune is going.

- Hello Master. - Hello, madam.

I drew a fortune stick.

What you want to know about?

I want to ask about love and career.

This fortune stick is middle blessing.

Not too bad, but with some problems.

Career or love, which one is more important?

- Both are important. - Okay, I see.

You only can choose one of them.

What? Yes.

Oh my God. If you follow your own way of doing things, the result must be like this.

Okay.

But I can change the way?

Yes this is called cultivation.

Cultivation?

If you can balance both of them,

it’s because God is helping you.

So in order for you to do it,

your own thoughts and cultivation are important too.

- Understand? - Understand. Okay.

- Thank you, Master. - You’re welcome.

- I will come back to Man Mo Temple. - Welcome, welcome.

- Thank you, bye. - Bye, bye.

So whenever I see Chinese fortune tellers, I never took it too seriously.

I just believe hard work pays off.

If I focus on what I want to do, I'll get there eventually.

[ethnic music]

And I’d like to introduce our next guest performer.

I'm really, really proud of her, like super proud of her.

There she is, my really good friend.

Her single, Magic Tricks made it into the US Top 10 Billboard Charts.

And she was the first Chinese Asian female artist to do that.

So please welcome Adrienne Lau on stage.

And she will be performing her latest single ‘Light it up’.

Please light up the stage for us.

Thank you, Adrienne.

So for the past few years,

I actually spent a lot more time on businesses, film and TV and acting.

And I haven't released a single for a while,

so it's kind of exciting to have a new EDM single.

Thank you, everybody.

Welcome ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the party.

It’s my honor to perform my new single for you tonight.

‘Light it up’ guys.

Come on closer, guys!

[singing]

Let’s dance together, everybody. Let’s get the party started.

Come on closer!

Adrienne!

It was great. She's born to be an entertainer.

Yeah, it was great seeing Adrienne at her single launch party.

Adrienne, she knows so many people,

she knows how to throw the best parties, launches.

So there were so many people there.

Great to see her sing live.

Good to see a different side of her other than Lan Kwai Fong and party queen.

I wish her all the best in her upcoming

single and album launch.

Raise your hands.

Oh my gosh! It was an absolutely stunning event.

You see, there were bottles of popping champagne,

free flow, people enjoying themselves, looking gorgeous.

It was just a great night to remember.

And everyone clearly had a lot of fun, too.

So I'm really happy for her knowing that,

this has been her dream for a while, but she was just too busy to achieve it.

And now one down the road and there's going to be a lot more,

and I'm always going to be there to support her.

And the night is very young. We should all dance together.

Let’s get the party started.

And I also wanna say it's my best friend's birthday, Carat Cheung.

I’ve always been very passionate about singing and music.

Seeing Adrienne's performance that night has inspired me a lot, even more, I can say.

It was such an amazing thing to see her on stage,

sing her new song and just achieving her dreams.

But if I'm being honest, what was she wearing on stage?

[sings]

And I want to make a toast tonight.

To MHD, my favourite champagne.

I don't think I can live without champagne.

I drink it everyday.

Raise your glasses and toast to the best of all seasons, everybody drink up.

The night is very young.

And today I’m debuting my new song and I'm very excited.

You guys are lovely.

And this song’s name

is called ‘Light it up’. And this is a song to encourage everybody

to light up your life, light up your passion. Live your life to the fullest.

So let’s party.

Cheers.

Let’s down it.

Thank you baby.

[upbeat music]

Happy birthday to Carat.

Happy birthday.

I need to get a bottle and down it.

Happy birthday baby. Happy birthday.

[upbeat music]

Do you know why Mayao is not here tonight?

I thought he's coming, no?

I think he should be invited.

Yeah, maybe he's not invited, because Adrienne and him had a big fight.

Did you guys know? what happened?

What happened? Oh my gosh.

That night I treated Adrienne out for a drink, Mayao was joining.

And then they had a fight at the bar.

Like a big fight for what, though?

For what reason, because, well, I wasn't there.

But I heard from Adrienne that during her birthday party at the boat,

Yeah. Mayao was broadcasting the message that she wanted to find a sperm donor.

So then Adrienne is like, everyone's thinking that I'm desperate bitch now.

But I think we agreed upon that because we went to this street,

Popo,

I don't know how to say it, you know what I mean, right?

Like, on the street, the traditional Chinese...

And Mayao also wanted to help.

Yeah.

- Okay? - And still, everyone's gossiping.

So you know what a girl feels.

Everyone's gossiping around,

saying you're a desperate bitch behind your back.

Oh no.

So she's quite mad.

Yeah, but he’s supposed to be a good friend.

Yeah, maybe we're talking about it too much.

That’s why she really feels overwhelmed.

And she just got really fed up with

the whole situation... because of you.

Me? What happened?

- No, nothing. - I actually heard some gossip.

Have you heard about after that party?

So Mayao’s plan actually worked because I heard some gossip saying that

- Adrienne actually found a sperm donor. - What?

And from a good one, a handsome guy, Caucasian.

- I’m so happy for her. - Shit.

I heard about Adrienne's news, about the sperm donor.

On that day on the boat,

I thought she was joking,

but somehow I realized that she was serious.

I thought it’s going well with us, dating and stuff.

But does she want me or does she just want my sperm?

What? I was dating with Adrienne.

You are dating her?

Did I say the wrong thing?

Sorry. You didn’t mark your territory, see?

I didn't know Matthew and Adrienne were sort of seeing each other.

Did I say the wrong thing?

- She found a sperm donor? - A sperm donor is, like, “yeah, I give it to you”.

Why didn’t you donate yours to her?

- Oh my God. - We were just dating.

Well, you should take action, right?

You’re not supposed to give your sperm when you’re dating, right?

Right. But she’s actually looking for a sperm donor now.

- Or maybe, I think... - You can do it the other way around.

You know, I love to do it the traditional way.

You should really just... you know?

- Yeah. - Give it to her.

- Give it to her first. - Or be responsible.

- Maybe, be the father. - Father, right now?

Just give sperm to her first, then get to know her.

But usually you have to be dating and then step by step going forward, right?

- Do it the other way around. Give her sperm first. - Oh my God.

It's not that complicated at all.

Girls, that night at Dr. Chao’s home,

- you guys went for dinner, right? - Yeah.

It was fun. So much fun.

I totally missed out.

We celebrated Howard’s birthday.

- You should have been there. - Invite me next time.

Of course, I always... Do you know what I heard?

I heard someone broke an expensive vase.

Last time at the party, it was an antique or something,

Like really, really expensive.

How could someone do something so stupid like that?

Yeah, I heard that it was worth 2 million or something.

2 million?

- It’s 4 million. - Oh my God.

It was 4 million, oh my gosh.

By the way, it was me.

Wow. There's so much happening in this group

we're just discussing about someone breaking the vase,

and Jessie was just standing right beside me.

Did I say the wrong thing again?

The word is getting around so fast in this city.

Carat wasn't even at Dr. Chao’s house,

but she knows that I broke the antique.

I guess the whole town knows now.

I better go hide.

I felt so bad.

Yeah, she was a bit drunk that day, but

it was an accident. But, I feel bad because

I've known the family for so long,

and they're always very cool and very nice.

But they were also very cool that time.

After she kicked it... You know what happened?

I kicked it, and then Dr. Chao looked back and said,

“oh my God, just clean it”. He even didn’t say anything

He's super nice.

That reaction?

- Cheers, guys, cheers. - Cheers.

- Adrienne looks... - Hey buddy, how are you?

Dude, are you okay? What’s wrong?

So, I heard about the news. About Adrienne...

she found a sperm donor.

What? Wait, wait. You’re telling us a lie.

What are you talking about?

She was talking about Mayao and the ball card

to help her find a sperm donor.

And then right now, she found it.

I was dating her a couple of times.

It went well. We were going smoothly.

We talked, everything's fine.

I felt we’re going to the next step.

Yeah, but right now, she’s got a sperm donor.

Frankly, I think he should grow up.

Honestly, it's not a big deal.

Adrienne's at a point in her life where she wants to have a child,

and if anything, he should be supporting her.

But clearly, he's not doing that.

And in fact, he's throwing a fit at the party,

while we're all having a good time.

Matthew, if you're listening to this,

honestly, man, I don't think that's a good idea.

And I think Adrienne is an amazing girl.

You definitely are super lucky.

Who did you hear it from?

From the girls, like, Janet and Carat.

Carat?

I would say that's a red flag.

- Red flag. - Red flag?

I don’t know, man, but sperm donor?

Are you ready to be a daddy?

I'm not yet, right now, but probably later.

I remember telling Matthew, that's a red flag.

If she wants babies right away, come on.

You might be clouded by love, infatuation, whatever you want to call it.

So I wanted to be the guy, to give him a slap in the face.

Well, figuratively.

Do you really want to be a baby daddy?

You know, like, right away?

Think about it.

We want to know. How do you feel about it? Are you okay with the situation?

I just feel all right right now.

- You know - Yeah.

I just felt a bit shocked when I heard about it.

Of course.

So we all know Adrienne is going down the sperm donation path,

which means for Matthew,

Poor guy. He's been chasing Adrienne

like there's no tomorrow, but in the end, it's actually pretty funny.

She's chosen a sperm donor over him.

- Back to the serious point. - Yeah.

At the end of the day, I feel like maybe she didn't tell you for a reason.

I think things are going super smooth. It's going well.

- You guys are on the second date, right? - Yeah.

So, she didn’t wanna scare you off.

Somehow, I don't know whether it's true or not.

And it's so difficult to ask her about the sperm donor.

For a guy to ask a girl whether is true about her sperm donor?

No way.

[jazz music]

- I bumped into him, and I was, wow! - It’s been a while since we saw each other.

I met him when I was Miss Toronto,

and he’s been building himself up in the movie industry filming, you know?

So Hubert was ‘Sunshine Boy’

back in the days when we were in Toronto, so it was a TV competition thing.

And yeah, he's always been charming.

And when we caught up, I found out that he's single.

That's why I have to introduce him to my girlfriends, of course.

When I saw him, I thought he was so good looking.

I saw you, I saw you too.

So I'm thinking I might want to introduce him to Jacquelin.

Are you looking for a new relationship?

I don't know.

I'm just trying to see one day at a time.

Right. Take it as it goes.

Yeah. Take life as it goes right.

I'm thinking about going to L.A..

I'm from L.A.. What? Really?

Yeah. My whole family lives in L.A..

- I have family there, too. - Really?

I want to move there eventually.

I went to UCLA.

You want to move there?

I actually kind of do.

I love Hong Kong, but yeah, L.A. is the place to be for me.

I didn't know we had so many things in common.

Yeah, it's like a surprise.

Surprisingly, we have so much in common.

I guess I'll be seeing you more often.

Yes, you will. And I can help with your auditions, too.

Auditions, oh my God. I'm gonna call you all the time.

I will call you all the time.

You better not get annoyed with me.

Okay, I'll make sure I pick up.

Yes. So I went back to Canada.

I went back for acting school.

Wait, I did too, I went back to L.A.

for acting school for a whole year and a half.

Which place did you train at.

I went to Playhouse West.

- Playhouse? Meisner! - Meisner.

- You know Meisner? - Of course, repetition.

You are wearing an orange jacket, I am wearing an orange jacket.

Somehow, it ends up me taking off my shirt

or me crying. Did it get extreme for you?

Yeah it got pretty extreme for me, too.

Oh my God, you totally remind me of my old school days.

Oh man, acting school. I remember we did a who to hug...

I really wanted to introduce Hubert to Jacquelin., but she couldn't make it that day.

So we started chatting,

and he told me he's an actor, and I wanted to do more acting as well.

He told me, he want to go to L.A..

So we have quite some similarities and quite some good conversations going on.

Adrienne, Adrienne. And she was interesting.

She was interesting. She's actually really sweet.

And I found out that she's actually

a Chiu chow or in English, we call it Teochew.

There are not many people that I meet that are the same as me.

And I always thought that was a dying language

which was like this little bonding moment that we had,

which I thought was really great.

So, yeah, it was really interesting to get to know someone.

So it just tells you

you shouldn't judge a book by its cover, sometimes.

Hey, babe. So, how's everything on your side?

It's good. I mean, well, my mom freaked out a little bit, and maybe I lost

a couple of jobs,

but, I mean, Hong Kong is a gossip town.

But people forget about these news very easily.

I never really took it to heart.

I mean, we've been such good friends for a long time, you know?

And I really treasure your friendship. Obviously.

Actually you know, I feel sad,

of you being unhappy.

And, I would never want you to be unhappy.

I mean, like, I'm really sorry,

if it made you having hard feelings,

- having a hard time. - It’s okay.

I mean.

I definitely don't know

who leaked the news, but it was definitely not me.

I would never do anything to hurt my friends, especially you.

But I'm sorry.

I apologize for whatever I said on the boat during the party.

- You know what? Don't worry. - I’m sorry,

If it created rumor about you and stuff like that.

Yeah, I know, I know.

You know what? I really treasure you so much as a friend,

and I definitely know it's not your fault.

I mean, you didn't do it on purpose.

It's just, like, one thing lead to another.

People talking.

And then, some other people were arguing. And I,

We've been such good friends for a long time, and I want our group of friends.

We're all good friends.

So I want us to be all happy. I don't want people arguing, taking sides.

That's the last thing I want. I want us to be very happy.

So don't worry. Okay?

I also feel bad that everyone was arguing for a little while.

I want all of us to be happy and I did not...

It's no big deal. It didn't take it to heart.

And I don't want it to affect our friendship also.

I only want good things happen to you, so, I hope you feel better.

Of course, let's leave everything behind.

Okay.

Me and you will still continue to be best friends.

- Okay. - Forever, okay?

- Alright. Let’s go. - Alright. Let’s go.

- It'll be a great year. Okay? - Okay.

I've known Mayao for so long, and we're good friends,

so of course, I'm not going to be mad at him, and I only try to remember good things.

Life is short.
