Original subtitles

Films are fascinating.

Each film has its own life.

If a director creates a masterpiece,

it certainly outlives the director.

There's another bizarre thing about films.

Sometimes,

the director wants to show certain things to the audience.

But they never notice them.

And the unshown things,

somehow catch their attention.

They say that...

a movie is a dream of the director.

In the end, did the director create the dream?

Or did the dream create the director?

Cut!

One. Two. Three. Four.

Five. Six. Seven. Eight.

Director!

I have reviewed all the footage... that you have shot...

I have no idea what...

You are... are... shooting.

I... too don't know what you are talk... talk-ing about.

You... never quit... bug... bug-ging me.

You... you what?

Do you know that the producer is more powerful than the director?

I only know that you stutter. I don't know anything about your power.

You...

The Number 9 is my lucky number.

Each time I make my 9th step,

my intuition would strike.

Each time I make it to the 8 and a half step, you'd come bother me.

I'm shooting a movie, Mr. Producer.

Just leave me alone, will you?

Ah Yiu!

Ah Yiu!

Yes!

Ah Yiu! Help me hang the big light up.

Make it spot on Mr. Producer.

Shed some light on him.

You come back down!

Hang it up!

Come back down!

Hang it up!

Come back down!

Hang it up!

Come back down!

Mr. Producer!

What?

The director calls the shots on the set, you know?

It's not your call.

Ah Yiu!

Hang it up. Shed some light on him.

How dare you... you... talk like this? I...

You are fired!

I can't hold it any more.

Are you okay, producer?

I'm fine... fine...

It's the director!

Director! Director! Director!

How's director?

- He passed out! - What to do?

Call an ambulance, hurry!

What to do?

Call for an ambulance!

Call an ambulance, hurry!

Why am I here?

Am I dead?

Does that make me a ghost?

No way.

There is no such thing as ghosts.

"Happiness"

I never finished shooting the film. How come it is showing?

"Hung To Restaurant"

This is Hung To Restaurant. So now what?

We will make a cash gift.

We are invited. Why can't we get in?

We are here to attend the wedding banquet. Hey!

Don't you ever step away from Grandma. You hear me, kiddo?

Look. Right here. It's written clearly

Upstairs of Hung To Restaurant.

Exactly. This is the upper floor of Hung To Restaurant.

We are wedding guests, not robbers.

Yeah.

Exactly, upstairs.

Girl, perfect for you.

You still can't find a husband.

What's this?

Who the heck is that?

Good evening, Ladies and Gentleman.

We are honored by your graceful presence on Tung's big day.

Tonight, under the watch of the stars and the moon fairy,

we shall be the witnesses of this sacred union.

Without further ado, I invite you

to come to the cyclical steps at the back,

slowly ascend up here for the banquet.

Hey! One by one.

Don't even think of cutting in.

7 storeys. What a torture!

Sir, let's see the cash gift.

Only HK$1,200?

HK$1,200 for two persons? Seriously?

Sir. Check out the price list right here.

The rules are clear.

The minimum per head is HK$500.

If you pay under HK$800, bring your own stool and drinks.

Now where's your stool?

Don't sit on any chair when you go in.

No Chair? How are we gonna eat?

I'm Sai Gai. I'm just the usher for Tung.

You can complain directly to Tung.

Well. I'm the Great Uncle of Tung.

Great Uncle?

Step aside, will you?

You are blocking the way.

Get lost already.

What's with the rush to your death? Try to cut in line?

Who cuts in for attending a banquet?

Auntie Fatty, it looks like you will die of starvation before she does.

Why would I die?

Well, you are only paying for one person.

I'm sure you will let the boy eat.

So you are the one who starves.

My boy's height is under 150 cm.

He eats for free even at fancy hotel buffets.

Are you dumb or what?

Hey what are you doing?

Stand straight. Against the wall. Raise your chin.

I said stand straight and raise your chin.

Do you understand Chinese?

Granny taught me not to stand straight when my height is measured.

See, Aunty Fatty? He's above 150 cm.

Doesn't he count as a person by the government standard?

You rely on the government standard?

You include the hair?

That's above 150 cm.

According to you, I'm taller than Yao Ming if I gel my hair.

If beauty pageants have their long hair done up, they'd be 2 m tall.

Dumbass.

You are pretty full of shit.

Well, look at my size. Of course I'm full of shit.

Can't you tell just by looking at me?

I dare you not to take my money.

Why not? I'm not scared of you.

Great. Give it back.

Wait, wait! You can't go in for free.

Please leave a message...

in exchange for a durian.

Is that Dada?

This is Tung.

It's time already.

Can you be here immediately?

Satisfied now?

I gave him a haircut, you'd better pay me for that.

What? 400 bucks?

Why don't you keep it for your ride home?

Sai Gai.

Don't forget to put the cash gift into the box.

Have you checked against the price list?

I tell you...

You sure you checked?

You look handsome tonight.

That's the best seat.

Thanks for coming. Play some mahjong.

Congratulations.

Thank you. Have a seat.

Have you put in the gift money?

Congratulations.

Thank you. Wow grown so much. Take a seat.

Actually that's the best seat.

Sai Gai.

Yes, Tung.

That chick hasn't shown up.

She doesn't answer the calls. The banquet has to start now.

But we have no bride!

Yes, this is my idea.

But you just gave me a few days.

I have to invite this crowd to your banquet.

And I have to find a chick to play your bride.

You specifically asked for that chick.

Now she's a no-show.

What's that to do with me?

You are the one who owes a big debt.

Alright! Focus. How do we proceed without a bride?

Well.

It's just a fake wedding. Why so serious?

There's a chick over here.

Long hair. Big boobs. Thick lips.

Can you do it?

Which one?

Over there.

You do it.

She's here.

What?

You invited even my grandma.

It has to look real.

Grandma.

Tung.

Grandma gets to see you get married while I'm alive!

I'm so glad.

If your dad and mom are still alive, They'd be overjoyed.

I raised you since you were a baby.

You look the best today.

Right.

This jade bracelet is my gift to my granddaughter-in-law.

Where is she?

Take me to meet her.

Where is she? Let's find her.

She's taking care of her make-up, Grandma.

Why don't we play mahjong while we wait?

Yeah, play some mahjong.

Yay, mahjong!

Let me take care of Grandma.

Didn't Tung tell you

- Thank you. - I'm famous

- Take a seat. - For my mahjong skills?

I was the first runner-up of Block 3 of Shun Li Estate.

Awesome. But I'm the champion of Block 4.

I was only assisting my mom though.

Great Uncle, you love touching them so much. You wanna take them home

Just choose this one. Bamboo 4.

Really that many "Wests"?

Grandma.

You fu-

What the heck?

Hello?

Hello?

Thank god. She's finally here.

Take her hand to go meet Grandma.

Grandma.

Grandma.

Wake up, Grandma.

Meet your granddaughter-in-law.

She handmade this wedding gown.

How virtuous.

I think she deserves a big laisee.

This is her?

This face shows a water-styled personality.

That fits Tung perfectly. He lacks Water in his Five Elements.

They make a perfect couple.

Here's a laisee for you.

Thank you, Grandma.

What's your name?

My name is Dada.

I will take good care of Tung.

What a happy union!

Enjoy your good time.

Tung, I have some business...

Grandma, she isn't just pretty.

Look at that ass. Just like mine when I was young.

Definitely mother material.

You were in a noisy place when I called you earlier?

Why did you call me?

Oh, you never answered.

I was worried you wouldn't show up.

I won't break my promise to you.

I returned to our family mansion in Kam Tin to get this gown.

Look at the refined details.

It is my family heirloom.

Attractive.

Fierce. Those dragon claws.

So, after the dinner

Dinner?

Are you serving dinner tonight?

Wait. Sai Gai.

Dada!

Food? The cash gifts are insignificant.

They should eat shit.

This is everyone?

Yeah. You said your relatives are low-profile-wealthy,

and loaded. They aren't making a contribution.

Tell them to eat shit.

It seems that I'm eating shit.

Hey, even shit costs money.

You can't even fucking afford shit.

No worries.

I have a shitty idea that's cheaper than shit.

What happened?

Don't play any tricks.

Put up your hands. Put. Up. Your. Hands.

What's going on?

What the heck?

Why are you standing in my way?

Get out!

Fire! Burning fire!

Oh! Fire! Fire! Run!

Grandma.

Let's go.

Oh.

Grandma.

Tung.

Where's everyone?

The banquet is over. You should go home to rest.

I see. You rest well too.

Dada.

I only have one grandson.

You have to take care of him.

Tung, I'm seeing Grandma to her home.

Great. But wait. Wait, Grandma!

Sai Gai.

Grandma, let's go.

Sai Gai.

Come on.

What?

What do you think?

I think...

I probably forgot something.

You think?

Sorry. I've been exhausted lately.

That's fine.

Grandma, keep the bracelet. Don't give it to us.

Dada.

This is for you. You keep it.

No, Grandma. You keep it.

You give it to us

when we visit you later, okay?

Perhaps I can keep it.

You think?

I think... I'm really tired lately.

The doctor says I have a tumor.

What tumor? Before you die, can you send Grandma home?

For sure. You are the boss.

Good.

Grandma, let's get you home.

I'm tired.

Good Night. Bye.

- Try not to over-exhaust yourself tonight. - Good bye. Grandma.

It's okay. Go.

Call me for help if you are too tired, okay?

Take a seat.

Isn't this Bromeliaceae? It's rare.

You're an expert. Her name is Serene.

That one. She's Moon. The middle one is Ting.

The last one over there is Joanne.

You date flowers?

I care about them.

Smoke?

I'm good.

Sai Gai mentioned that,

You are his boss. And you can beat people up.

Back when I was younger.

These days, I mainly just jerk off.

It's hard for losers to get a job in Hong Kong.

I'm taking a break.

Read and grow some plants.

So now you became a cultured gangster.

You can say that.

I love gardening too.

I used to grow many of them.

But they are all dead now.

We can exchange knowledge.

You plan to exchange gardening knowledge all night.

That won't be necessary.

Sai Gai says that tonight we can...

Have full service.

Yes I know.

Honestly, I'm picky with clients.

But you're cute and I'm short on money.

So I'm here.

I'm super ready.

Okay, I'll go take a shower.

Let's go together.

No need to rush.

Okay. Suit yourself.

"Dada"

So you decide you want me to join you?

- Are you "Tung the Boss" - Who are you?

This is Tuen Mun Police Station.

Two hours ago, there was a car accident in Kam Tin.

The phone owner passed away at the scene.

You are the last caller to this phone.

Do you know the phone owner.

Can you come identify the body now?

Hello?

Are you there? Hello?

Sai Gai!

Boss! Boss!

That chick is not a human being.

I know. I know. Go! Go! Go!

Wait, the gift money! Go get it with me.

Forget about the money. Go!

Boss!

It's meant to be pulled. You kicked and broke the door.

Now it's stuck.

Boss, you jump first.

How can boss leave you behind.

Ghost!

Boss goes jump first. You follow.

OK! When I pull my leg out, I'll follow you...

Wait up!

Where's the gift money?

Thank you.

If I didn't need money so badly because of mother's illness.

I'd never do such nasty things with you.

That's not really nasty.

What?

How else can it be more nasty?

Grandma?

Haven't I sent you on the minibus?

Beware of bad guys at night.

I can get you home.

You Baster.

You trick my Tung?

When I started making a living in this world,

your dad was still reading his comic books.

Dumb ass.

Motherfucker.

They are gonna bust.

Dada.

Come.

You scoundrel. Bully innocent girls,

while they are in difficult times.

You won't be so lucky next time you run into me.

Got it...

Dada.

Keep it.

You and Tung are meant to be.

Of the millions of people in Hong Kong.

The two of you come together for a fake wedding.

That's destiny.

When we settle down,

Grandma will host the most romantic and beautiful wedding for you two.

Silly, don't cry.

- Grandma. - Good girl.

Don't cry.

"Happiness"

I am done with weddings.

Sir, your ticket please.

Oh. I don't have...

Thank you.

Weird.

Only 5 tickets are sold. How come there are 7 people?

Those two? We haven't checked them.

Am I in a dream?

Keep it going.

I can use more inspirations.

"Wrath"

Go eat shit!

You know what? Everything you do now is against my will

What the heck?

You work harder than me.

You think you can beat me with seniority?

I don't expect you to get it. Or else you'd be in my seat.

Now I run this place.

See if anyone out there would help you.

Are you pissed?

I won't fire you.

I am enjoying this.

Don't even think of quitting.

If you can't pay your mortgage, you sleep on the streets.

Get out and work.

OUT!

Come back.

Close the door.

Tell your sweetheart to come in.

Johnson asks for you.

Loser!

You! Chi-chun Fan!

Move everything to the conference room for tomorrow's meeting.

You don't need to attend the the meeting tomorrow.

Do it on your own. Don't take up your colleague's time.

The elevator is broken again.

Take the stairs.

What the heck?

What are you thinking? You work harder than me.

You have worked here longer than me.

I won't fire you. I am enjoying this.

So many buildings! Crushing on people!

Kill him!

Kill him!

Oh. You come down from that building, right?

Be careful.

Do you know? Behind every building window,

there are secrets.

Jesus...

Oh! How can you tell?

I really am a god.

These seeds are for you.

When they blossom, you prosper.

Hey, what are you doing?

When they blossom, you prosper.

Crazy!

These seeds are for you.

When they blossom, you prosper.

Wait up!

Young man. Overload. Get out.

Uncle, don't yell. Be nice.

Nice?

Youngsters like you are creating chaos in Hong Kong.

In fact old asses like you are blocking the way.

Old ass? I'll get your mother to slap you to your senses.

You'd better do.

I'll slap you now.

For real?!

Go eat shit!

Clear the way!

Clear the way!

Cops at work. Out of the way.

Let me get you some water.

Why Cherry so ruthless in this way?

So horrible.

Yes, she used a knife to cut his neck.

How can she did it?

We came a little bit early this morning.

We saw her had something in hand, that's a gift of love from boss.

But she wants to return it back.

And they start to argue in the room

I think boss wants to love Cherry by force.

He... rape me.

Chi-chun Fan.

Don't you recognize my voice?

Die! Die!

Queen!

Die! Die! Dead!

What are you looking at? I'm not a woman.

Women are troublesome.

But if they love you,

they can be quite lovely.

Chun!

Johnson is crazy.

He defaces himself,

and got out from the hospital.

He won't leave me alone.

He's not dead yet?

I have always kept this key.

I feel it's safer to be here.

You are mine! Why are you running away?

Chun, I've called the Police.

Have you seen the hobo? The one in the tunnel near our office.

I heard he was a senior officer in our company.

He was fired by the previous owner. Then he lost his mind.

The movie is popular.

Awesome.

"Sorrow"

When I draw for children's books,

I see all these happy endings for the princes and princesses.

Are they true in reality?

This is my family mansion.

This is where my career as a story illustrator began.

Hello. Boss Chan!

Sorry. Something happened to me earlier.

I know. But I really had some personal business.

Can you allow for a few more days?

I'll try my best to meet the deadline.

Who's there?

Who's there?

Happy birthday, Wife!

Are you surprised?

It is my bad. I missed the celebration.

Let me make it up to you now. Don't be mad.

Where were you on my birthday?

I told you. I had to be with a client.

That was not a client.

It's nothing.

She's rich. She can help me. It's that simple.

After that, I've never seen her again.

I saw it all...

I saw it all!

Come on.

I have worked so hard for 10 years. What for?

For our future.

Won't you forgive me?

I just made one mistake.

You have always got my back.

But I really owe a huge debt.

I don't want you to take too many jobs.

That's why I...

I don't know what to do.

Honey, please help me one last time.

You haven't been back to this house for so long.

Sell it.

Sell it. Then we can be happy like we were before.

You've never seen her again?

Where's that perfume scent from?

You want me to sell the house, so that you can get money to spend?

How many times you have lied to me?

- Tell me! - Don't get crazy now.

Come on, honey.

I'm crazy. Go away!

Leave!

Honey!

Mom.

I miss you.

I know you are here.

Come out and meet me.

Help!

Kei-shan Tang, what do you want?

What are you doing?

Let go of me!

The land is valuable. And you are not selling.

It's not gonna be painful.

You bastard!

Kei-shan Tang! You bastard!

Let go!

Goodbye, honey.

Let go! You bastard.

Baby girl.

I'm sorry.

Mom didn't take good care of you.

That guy in there is nasty to you.

I won't let him go.

Mom!

Mom!

Don't leave me.

Come back here!

This factory is passed down from my grandma to my mother.

My mother passed it down to me.

What's wrong with doing what I love?

You can make your cotton wadding all you like.

I will never care.

Stop lying.

I know you are having an affair.

Nuts. I have no time for this.

Go to hell.

Fire...

Help!

"Fire at Cotton Factory. Dead Father and Missing Mother Leave Behind."

Turns out the Prince is the demon.

The dying Queen arrives just in time.

The Queen kills the demon with her own death.

The princess is saved by her mother's great love.

Tung Tung. You've returned to teach in the orphanage.

I'm so glad.

It's my pleasure.

Dean.

This is my new book. It's for you.

I hope you like it.

Thank you.

"Joy"

Lord Kwan, a great misfortune has fallen upon the five of us.

One of us has to take the bullet for the team.

We ask Lord Kwan to help us choose this death warrior.

In Lord Kwan we trust. No complaint from anyone.

I don't really trust Lord Kwan.

I just know he likes my singing.

Let me give him an encore in the bathroom.

First come first draw!

We are making a draw.

What's the point of fighting?

Exactly. One for each anyway.

Save the hassle.

Let's see. Who got the Death Draw?

Who got the Death Draw?

Each one is the same length?

Did I say length matters?

What?

So what matters?

I'm safe!

It's you.

I can't turn it. How come?

Only I can turn it. See?

It's you!

Boss! We have made a Death Draw.

Lord Kwan decided that Ah Chung will test-run the East Town route.

That didn't happen.

Lord Kwan?

I veto this decision.

We are a respectable company.

How can we make decisions based on superstitions?

I decide to...

take a vote!

Then, you it is.

We'll be outside.

I won't go.

Why?

The East Town Theatre route has been suspended for more than 10 years.

I know.

The East Town Theatre used to be a funeral home.

Why still ask me to go?

Ah Chung, let me tell you.

We can create a...

Ghost Visit Tour.

How thrilling. We take bus loads of people to meet ghosts.

Cash will come to us in bus loads.

We will become a listed company.

On NASDAQ!

That won't work.

You don't know. Many of my predecessors,

went missing there.

We found that driver.

His wife was mean to him. He just left home.

I won't go.

Didn't you just apply for leave?

To attend a singing contest, right?

Yes. A contest.

I bought a new guitar. It costs a fortune.

You can't go.

Why?

I won't grant you that leave.

Boss! Give me a chance!

Do you know how well I sing? Let me show you.

Am I your only bitch?

Are you touched?

I am touched.

Is it good?

It is good.

Do you feel awful?

Awful yes.

So do you want to die of poverty or die of terror?

I am a man of fairness, justice and openness.

Here is a ball.

If it goes into the basket

I win.

You go to East Town.

If I fail,

you win.

You don't have to go. Okay?

Not fair.

Come on.

Thank you, Boss!

You miss!

Boss is the best!

Boss is the best!

In order to minimize the risk of loss for the company,

we carefully select the most broken one of all buses,

to carry out this highly dangerous mission.

I really feel bad to lose...

the bus.

Appreciate it.

This walkie is for you.

Appreciate it.

Stay in touch.

If anything happens to you,

at least we know. Right?

The family is grateful.

Bon Voyage!

Bye Bye!

"Namo Amitabha..."

Hey, can you play some other music?

This is really creepy.

Open!

What? You really got 15 five's?

Just drink, dumbass!

Dumbass, me?

Ah Chung still dreams of being a singer at his age.

That's a real dumbass.

Cut the crap and drink.

I can drink.

Next round.

Answer please.

It's gone.

Don't just go silent.

Quit playing. I'm really scared.

Guys.

There is an old woman here.

Help...

Help!

Where is this?

My kidney.

Right above my ass.

Old lady, stop poking.

I mean, which stop is this?

This is the Eastern Graveyard.

Where do you want to get off?

Oh, I'm home then.

Oh my gosh.

Young man...

What?

There's something unclean on your bus.

Be careful.

So many family members?

Out here waiting.

Are you sure, Madam?

You live here?

That's a real dumbass.

Gosh, my heart is racing.

Oops. Nature's call.

These guys.

No bottle here?

Such a narrow opening.

That's fine.

Perhaps I can try.

Maybe not.

What if I can't take it back out?

Anyone here?

I mean,

anything here?

Sorry Sorry. Mama Mia.

Don't blame me. I'm just here to take a leak.

Ghost!

Help!

Shit, I can't stop!

Piss in my garden? Jackass.

Wait up! Wait up!

Mr. Driver, the floor is wet. People might slip.

Nobody asked you to drink that water.

You look familiar.

Where have I seen you before? Let me see.

Never seen a handsome man?

You are a singer.

You recognize me.

You are the middle-aged guy,

who goes to the singing contest every year,

and suffers from stage fright every year.

You are middle-aged.

So you are a bus driver.

So?

I actually remember your song.

It's awesome. Goes like this:

"Am I your only bitch?"

Are you done?

You're so cute!

Fuck off.

Nobody sees us anyway. Loosen up.

Mister. There's something unclean on your bus.

You see it too? Run!

Run!

You too?!

Help!

Why are you crying?

She's pressing my wound.

Men don't cry. Stop it.

Where do you get off?

The terminal station - East Town Theatre.

You think we are ghosts?

We are just a band.

We come to join the cosplay party.

It's to celebrate this bus route reopen again.

Come on, let's get some fun.

Oh please.

The ground is so dirty. Someone vomited. Clean it.

Hurry! We're late.

Another time. You... you go ahead.

Come on.

You go ahead. Another time.

You can go up and sing. You sing well.

Quit playing. I can't sing.

Too modest. You sing really well.

Go.

What song shall I sing?

What song? We'll back you up.

"We'll back you up"?

You have too many questions.

I don't know that song.

Just go already.

Whose song is that? I have never heard of it.

Starting soon.

Let's go.

"East Town Charity Masquerade Ball"

"The city's gone crazy. Too many ghosts and monsters."

"Are you scared?"

"Well he plays dumb."

"Be fearless. Ignore them. Go on singing."

"Sing your soul. Rock your moves. We are the dancing champs. 8 steps an"

"The world changes in a blink. Open sesame. 8 steps and a half."

"All these backing singers. Let's sing together."

"Keep singing. Keep dancing. 8 steps 8 steps 8 steps and a half."

"This rare union calls for celebration."

"But how come you all look half-dead."

"Some are stuck."

"Some are falling apart."

"Don't bother to try and fix you."

"Y'all should just go home."

"How come my left eye seems to see twin girls sitting together."

"Must be an illusion."

"Darn I am a fool."

"Be fearless. Fear is useless. Go on singing."

Hello Director!

Hello! The singing is marvellous.

Thank you. Thank you.

This cheeky girl.

Miss, this is the men's room.

Help! I ran into a ghost.

Does it look like us?

"Whether the dream is a reality?."
