1
00:00:41,459 --> 00:00:49,459
"Catkins blowing in the
wind Scattered all over in the wild"
2
00:00:52,084 --> 00:01:00,084
"Catkins blowing in the
wind Scattered all over in the wild"
3
00:01:02,793 --> 00:01:07,876
"Floating as the wind goes, here and there"
4
00:01:08,043 --> 00:01:13,293
"If only I could take you in my dream"
5
00:01:13,459 --> 00:01:18,293
"Love is like floating catkins"
6
00:01:18,459 --> 00:01:23,918
"Our fingers tightly
knit, we'd fly together"
7
00:01:24,084 --> 00:01:29,126
"Love is like floating catkins"
8
00:01:29,293 --> 00:01:34,584
"Our fingers tightly knit,
we'd spend our lives together"
9
00:01:34,751 --> 00:01:42,751
"Love... Ah..."
10
00:01:44,043 --> 00:01:46,376
Hey, everyone, my name is McDull
11
00:01:46,543 --> 00:01:48,501
Right, that's me
12
00:01:48,668 --> 00:01:52,751
When this happened,
I was a Springfield Kindergarten boy
13
00:01:52,918 --> 00:01:54,626
Class Lower B
14
00:01:54,793 --> 00:01:58,793
Apart from being plump and a bit slow
15
00:01:58,959 --> 00:02:01,959
I was basically an ordinary kid
16
00:02:02,126 --> 00:02:05,043
That's why I never dreamed one day...
17
00:02:05,209 --> 00:02:09,418
I'd be singing on stage with Perfect Andy
18
00:02:09,584 --> 00:02:13,043
Mother of course was most surprised
19
00:02:13,209 --> 00:02:17,501
What with my broken
voice, my vulgar behaviour
20
00:02:17,668 --> 00:02:20,376
She insisted I'd never go on stage
21
00:02:20,709 --> 00:02:24,793
Much less performing
together with Perfect Andy
22
00:02:25,168 --> 00:02:29,459
Mother had good reason for such thinking
23
00:02:29,709 --> 00:02:33,376
It's just embarrassing for me to tell
24
00:02:33,751 --> 00:02:36,126
How's the kiddo doing?
25
00:02:36,293 --> 00:02:38,209
Crap
26
00:02:38,376 --> 00:02:40,168
Doc, he needs to crap, again
27
00:02:40,334 --> 00:02:43,376
Right, I crap too
28
00:02:43,501 --> 00:02:45,668
Crapping is healthy
29
00:02:45,834 --> 00:02:50,209
Not that, he craps
whenever Perfect Andy sings
30
00:02:50,418 --> 00:02:53,376
I've the same urge
listening to Perfect Andy...
31
00:02:53,543 --> 00:02:54,584
Don't you?
32
00:02:54,751 --> 00:02:55,876
I pee
33
00:02:56,043 --> 00:03:00,084
Exactly, this urge to
crap is the result of...
34
00:03:00,251 --> 00:03:03,584
Being touched, having that little something
35
00:03:03,751 --> 00:03:06,918
Stirring and stirring inside you
36
00:03:07,084 --> 00:03:08,876
Stirring and stirring
37
00:03:09,043 --> 00:03:11,709
You feel weird, and imagine your need to
38
00:03:11,876 --> 00:03:13,584
Crap!
39
00:03:13,751 --> 00:03:17,584
Not that, he actually produces turds,
lumps of them
40
00:03:17,751 --> 00:03:22,043
Well, what you call "turds" are in fact...
41
00:03:22,209 --> 00:03:25,334
The explosion of his suppressed emotion
42
00:03:25,501 --> 00:03:28,043
So, emotions are dark and chunky...
43
00:03:28,209 --> 00:03:30,126
Which rolls tinkling out?
44
00:03:30,709 --> 00:03:35,793
Indeed, emotions begin in
a bright and chromatic form
45
00:03:36,626 --> 00:03:39,876
But after being churned around
from heart to liver to lung...
46
00:03:40,043 --> 00:03:45,584
Being churned more and more, more and more
47
00:03:46,334 --> 00:03:48,751
They become dark and
chunky like fried chestnut
48
00:03:49,668 --> 00:03:52,334
Dark and chunky they may appear
49
00:03:52,501 --> 00:03:56,501
It's all tender and sweet
once you crack it open
50
00:03:56,668 --> 00:04:00,334
As long as we still have... Music!
51
00:07:00,293 --> 00:07:01,459
To begin our story
52
00:07:01,626 --> 00:07:03,876
We better go back to some months...
53
00:07:04,043 --> 00:07:06,709
Before the Perfect Andy Concert
54
00:07:08,376 --> 00:07:16,376
Pay up! Pay up!
55
00:07:22,584 --> 00:07:25,501
A lot of things were happening then
56
00:07:25,793 --> 00:07:30,293
Say, the stock index had
shot up to 28,000 points
57
00:07:30,668 --> 00:07:33,918
But then what did we kids know?
58
00:07:34,626 --> 00:07:37,626
Morning, Head Master
59
00:07:38,126 --> 00:07:40,668
Bye, Head Master
60
00:07:42,209 --> 00:07:45,501
All we knew was Head Master acted strange
61
00:07:45,709 --> 00:07:47,043
Disappearing all the time
62
00:07:48,584 --> 00:07:53,168
The whole school fell into Miss Chan's care
63
00:07:53,709 --> 00:07:56,793
Then the milk became thinner and thinner
64
00:07:57,084 --> 00:07:59,626
The biscuits smaller and smaller
65
00:08:00,293 --> 00:08:01,293
Miss Chan...
66
00:08:01,459 --> 00:08:04,334
Pray tell, what's this
dark and chunky thing?
67
00:08:04,501 --> 00:08:05,501
Sugar-fried chestnut
68
00:08:05,543 --> 00:08:08,001
Now repeat after me
69
00:08:08,168 --> 00:08:10,626
Sugar-fried chestnut is brilliant!
70
00:08:10,793 --> 00:08:15,084
Sugar-fried chestnut is brilliant!
71
00:08:15,418 --> 00:08:17,001
Kids, it's fine if you can't crack it
72
00:08:17,168 --> 00:08:19,001
You can always try again tomorrow
73
00:08:19,168 --> 00:08:22,293
Now write you name clearly on your chestnut
74
00:08:22,459 --> 00:08:24,084
And Head Prefect'll help me collect them
75
00:08:24,251 --> 00:08:26,876
Pay up! Pay up!
76
00:08:27,043 --> 00:08:29,876
Pay up! Pay up!
77
00:08:31,251 --> 00:08:32,834
Time's up, go!
78
00:08:49,209 --> 00:08:52,126
We're firm! We're beefy firm!
79
00:08:53,501 --> 00:08:57,626
I have firm wrists today,
thank you Alma mater!
80
00:08:57,834 --> 00:09:01,251
My calves are firm, thank you Alma mater!
81
00:09:02,668 --> 00:09:06,459
Our rice tickets are beefy firm,
thank you Alma mater!
82
00:09:06,751 --> 00:09:09,251
"Beefy Firm Kindergarten
Alumni Fundraising Night"
83
00:09:23,793 --> 00:09:26,584
Sorry, I got hold up at Mars
84
00:09:26,793 --> 00:09:28,876
And can't make it to this meaningful event
85
00:09:29,043 --> 00:09:31,084
As a gesture from the outer space...
86
00:09:31,251 --> 00:09:33,668
I present you this
87
00:09:33,876 --> 00:09:35,501
Thank you Alma mater!
88
00:09:41,834 --> 00:09:45,501
"Payable to: Beefy Firm Kindergarten"
89
00:10:28,251 --> 00:10:30,001
Thank you old boys and girls
90
00:10:30,376 --> 00:10:36,668
Tonight, we've raised
a total of $58,660,000!
91
00:10:36,876 --> 00:10:39,209
Hey, wake up!
92
00:10:39,626 --> 00:10:43,459
You'd get fired if they catch you sleeping
93
00:10:43,668 --> 00:10:46,001
An oracle!
94
00:10:46,209 --> 00:10:47,959
What did you see? The lottery numbers?
95
00:10:48,126 --> 00:10:51,334
Close... the jackpot
96
00:10:51,501 --> 00:10:54,418
What, porridge again?
97
00:10:54,584 --> 00:10:57,501
You want lobster?
They're cutting our electricity soon
98
00:10:57,668 --> 00:11:00,334
Jackpot this is, trust me!
99
00:11:00,543 --> 00:11:03,043
You go get some of those...
100
00:11:03,209 --> 00:11:08,084
Dangling dandling stuff
to dress up the school
101
00:11:08,251 --> 00:11:09,501
What dangling dandling stuff?
102
00:11:09,668 --> 00:11:17,001
Decorations! Loads of
flashy, flashy light-bulbs!
103
00:11:17,168 --> 00:11:18,751
No more electricity soon
104
00:11:18,918 --> 00:11:22,043
You help pay up first
105
00:11:22,209 --> 00:11:23,209
Shoot
106
00:11:37,543 --> 00:11:42,001
Mother, are you coming
to the Fundraising tomorrow?
107
00:11:42,168 --> 00:11:43,709
Of course
108
00:11:43,918 --> 00:11:47,459
I want to witness the closing
of this shabby school
109
00:11:47,626 --> 00:11:51,584
No! No way! Stay open, please!
110
00:11:51,751 --> 00:11:52,959
What's with you?
111
00:11:53,251 --> 00:11:58,459
After one semester,
I'm going to crack my chestnut soon
112
00:11:58,751 --> 00:11:59,751
Frock
113
00:12:08,418 --> 00:12:10,251
Told you the electricity was going
114
00:12:21,084 --> 00:12:23,751
This time it must work
115
00:12:23,918 --> 00:12:27,501
After so many years, with so many students
116
00:12:27,834 --> 00:12:29,084
Hea... Head Master
117
00:12:29,251 --> 00:12:31,959
I thought you e... evaporated?
118
00:12:32,084 --> 00:12:37,043
You cheeky boy! Owe
you a few months' rent...
119
00:12:37,209 --> 00:12:41,376
And I got the red-paint treatment!
120
00:12:41,543 --> 00:12:44,501
That's Stan... standard procedure
121
00:12:45,793 --> 00:12:49,959
You got the stuff to fill them up later?
122
00:12:50,126 --> 00:12:51,293
Cost me few hundred bucks
123
00:12:51,459 --> 00:12:55,376
This time, we're hitting the jackpot
124
00:12:55,543 --> 00:12:56,376
What if you don't?
125
00:12:56,543 --> 00:12:58,084
I join my home lot
126
00:12:58,251 --> 00:12:59,251
Shoot

00:12:59,626 --> 00:13:01,001
"Block For Sale"

13771 calling console, we've a situation
129
00:13:20,001 --> 00:13:21,668
A bunch of good-for-nothing appears
130
00:13:21,834 --> 00:13:24,209
They're heading Tai Kok Tsui, over
131
00:13:24,376 --> 00:13:25,959
Heading towards Tai Kok Tsui, over
132

Opposite Lucky Seafood Restaurant, over
135
00:13:32,043 --> 00:13:34,543
Just say Springfield Kindergarten, dummy
136
00:13:34,709 --> 00:13:36,376
Springfield Kindergarten?
137
00:13:36,543 --> 00:13:38,376
Right, Springfield Kindergarten
138
00:13:38,543 --> 00:13:40,144
With its pitiful campus,
even more pitiful teachers
139
00:13:40,168 --> 00:13:42,293
Students there are
the lowliest of the lowly
140
00:13:42,459 --> 00:13:44,209
A waste of oxygen, over
141
00:13:44,376 --> 00:13:46,126
A waste of oxygen? Over
142
00:13:46,293 --> 00:13:47,668
To raise money to pay the rent
143
00:13:47,834 --> 00:13:50,334
The school's hosting
a Fundraising tonight, called...
144
00:13:50,959 --> 00:13:52,668
"Hit the Jackpot or Join the Home Lot"
145
00:13:52,834 --> 00:13:54,001
Targeted at the alumni
146
00:13:54,168 --> 00:13:57,126
Old boys and girls alike,
all shoddy creatures, will gather
147
00:13:57,293 --> 00:13:59,084
Better dead than fed, over
148
00:13:59,209 --> 00:14:00,668
Better dead than fed? Over
149
00:14:00,834 --> 00:14:02,584
That Springfield Kindergarten...
150
00:14:02,751 --> 00:14:04,185
I was there for less than a semester
151
00:14:04,209 --> 00:14:05,876
That failed my promotion here
152
00:14:07,293 --> 00:14:09,209
"Old man, you threw me in Springfield"
153
00:14:09,376 --> 00:14:12,293
"Did you pick me up from a garbage field?"
154
00:14:19,834 --> 00:14:21,084
Congratulations, Head Master
155
00:14:21,209 --> 00:14:22,519
What a bunch of champion students!
156
00:14:22,543 --> 00:14:23,709
You're too kind
157
00:14:23,876 --> 00:14:26,209
I'm your District
Councilor, Mrs Cheshire Wu
158
00:14:26,376 --> 00:14:27,976
Tell your students to keep voting for me
159
00:14:28,043 --> 00:14:28,834
Let's build our district together
160
00:14:29,001 --> 00:14:30,001
I shall, I shall
161
00:14:30,126 --> 00:14:32,501
Hey, Head Master, I'm Tic
162
00:14:32,668 --> 00:14:34,209
Say, hair all gone, huh?
163
00:14:34,543 --> 00:14:36,503
- I mustn't keep you from your guests
- You're not
164
00:14:36,668 --> 00:14:38,001
No worry, I've a secret formula
165
00:14:38,168 --> 00:14:40,209
It works like magic
166
00:14:40,751 --> 00:14:45,834
"No poo poo please"
167
00:14:48,251 --> 00:14:51,251
Welcome everybody
168
00:14:51,418 --> 00:14:54,418
Visit our school
169
00:14:54,584 --> 00:14:55,876
Handicap, odds to home...
170
00:14:56,043 --> 00:14:57,584
Hello, I'm Mrs Cheshire Wu
171
00:14:58,084 --> 00:14:59,251
Your District Councilor
172
00:14:59,418 --> 00:15:04,334
We've prepared a present
173
00:15:04,501 --> 00:15:07,918
Put under your chair
174
00:15:08,084 --> 00:15:12,126
Sugar-fried chestnut
175
00:15:12,251 --> 00:15:14,209
Very nice
176
00:15:14,501 --> 00:15:15,709
Chunky stuff
177
00:15:15,876 --> 00:15:17,793
Stick to the script, ok?
178
00:15:21,793 --> 00:15:22,543
Thanks to mother school
179
00:15:22,709 --> 00:15:26,793
I first learnt the term "Pay Up" here
180
00:15:26,959 --> 00:15:28,293
My colouring, too
181
00:15:28,459 --> 00:15:30,959
Thank you, mother school!
182
00:15:31,168 --> 00:15:33,918
We support you, Head Master!
183
00:15:35,043 --> 00:15:37,834
My legs went limp earlier,
I dropped into the shit-pit
184
00:15:38,584 --> 00:15:39,584
Thank you, mother school!
185
00:15:39,668 --> 00:15:42,168
The Filipino maid said, "$20 pork"
186
00:15:42,418 --> 00:15:44,751
I cut it, "$22"
187
00:15:44,918 --> 00:15:48,584
The maid said, "No, $20 pork"
188
00:15:48,751 --> 00:15:51,626
So I cut it, "$18"
189
00:15:51,793 --> 00:15:55,751
She said, "No, $20"
190
00:15:57,168 --> 00:15:59,048
I learnt English and
arithmetic here, thank you
191
00:15:59,084 --> 00:16:01,626
So you think a kindergarten
graduate is doomed
192
00:16:01,793 --> 00:16:03,168
Good for nothing?
193
00:16:03,334 --> 00:16:05,459
Now let's do
194
00:16:05,626 --> 00:16:07,126
some positive thinking
195
00:16:07,293 --> 00:16:09,834
You go: hey, there's no free meal on earth
196
00:16:10,001 --> 00:16:11,418
I go: but you're in luck tonight
197
00:16:11,584 --> 00:16:13,793
This Magic Cleaning Glove,
nanotechnology, no BS
198
00:16:13,959 --> 00:16:15,668
Kids, you know what nanotechnology is?
199
00:16:15,834 --> 00:16:16,834
Forget I asked
200
00:16:17,001 --> 00:16:19,001
But cleaning is something we do everyday
201
00:16:19,209 --> 00:16:20,969
What can we trust? It
concerns our wellbeing
202
00:16:21,001 --> 00:16:22,001
But we have this!
203
00:16:22,126 --> 00:16:24,376
You go to Harrods, to Selfridges and check
204
00:16:24,543 --> 00:16:26,394
$188 for a pair of my nano-cleaning glove,
no kidding
205
00:16:26,418 --> 00:16:27,977
For how much am I selling this tonight?
206
00:16:28,001 --> 00:16:29,561
I tell you later, in case you freak out
207
00:16:29,709 --> 00:16:31,102
Cleaning window blinds is a fuss, no?
208
00:16:31,126 --> 00:16:32,459
Only with regular cleaning cloth
209
00:16:32,626 --> 00:16:34,543
But not our nano-cleaning glove
210
00:16:34,709 --> 00:16:36,084
Retail price, $188
211
00:16:36,251 --> 00:16:37,668
You check it out yourselves
212
00:16:37,834 --> 00:16:40,001
But I tell you what, today is bargain day
213
00:16:40,209 --> 00:16:41,251
And I'm going to shock you
214
00:16:41,418 --> 00:16:43,293
Say no more, you buy from me today
215
00:16:43,459 --> 00:16:45,043
I throw in a pair of cotton legging
216
00:16:45,251 --> 00:16:47,126
Legging in summer
217
00:16:47,293 --> 00:16:48,334
means rash, you say
218
00:16:48,501 --> 00:16:50,001
Don't blink, you watch carefully
219
00:16:50,168 --> 00:16:51,668
Not a trace of rash, right?
220
00:16:51,834 --> 00:16:52,918
Oh oh oh, but why?
221
00:16:53,084 --> 00:16:54,751
This summer heat can cook a sausage
222
00:16:54,918 --> 00:16:56,084
Why not even rash?
223
00:16:56,251 --> 00:16:57,751
But that's the magic of nano
224
00:16:57,918 --> 00:16:59,376
You know how much it cost at Isetan?
225
00:16:59,543 --> 00:17:01,834
No more or less, $188
226
00:17:02,001 --> 00:17:04,126
Today it doesn't cost one cent
227
00:17:04,293 --> 00:17:05,584
Holy Buddha, not even one cent!
228
00:17:05,751 --> 00:17:07,376
You buy one pair of my magic glove
229
00:17:07,543 --> 00:17:08,543
The legging comes free
230
00:17:08,626 --> 00:17:10,043
But only tonight
231
00:17:10,251 --> 00:17:11,709
The nano-legging for you
232
00:17:11,876 --> 00:17:12,876
Not your sausage-legging
233
00:17:13,043 --> 00:17:14,209
All less than $100
234
00:17:14,376 --> 00:17:15,685
I shouldn't have said sausage, I know
235
00:17:15,709 --> 00:17:18,168
Now you think if only
I'd throw in some sausages too
236
00:17:18,334 --> 00:17:20,126
Done! For my dear customers tonight
237
00:17:20,293 --> 00:17:21,459
I introduce my nano-sausage
238
00:17:21,626 --> 00:17:23,543
But what's the secret with this sausage?
239
00:17:23,709 --> 00:17:25,543
You take a bite and you won't regret
240
00:17:27,918 --> 00:17:31,084
Dear, I'm not exactly free
to wander around outside
241
00:17:31,584 --> 00:17:33,834
But, Head Master, I support you
242
00:17:35,793 --> 00:17:39,293
"Freedom gone, freedom drown"
243
00:17:39,459 --> 00:17:43,293
"Heartache, heartbreak, heart still strong"
244
00:17:43,459 --> 00:17:47,293
"One step wrong, my sentence long"
245
00:17:47,459 --> 00:17:51,501
"I sing you my song"
246
00:17:52,126 --> 00:17:54,834
Parents on my left, audience too...
247
00:17:55,001 --> 00:17:56,751
Sing along, loud!
248
00:17:56,918 --> 00:18:01,001
Thank you everybody,
tonight we've raised the sum of...
249
00:18:01,168 --> 00:18:04,584
$367.40!
250
00:18:04,751 --> 00:18:07,834
Thank you!
251
00:18:08,001 --> 00:18:10,126
The beef's excellent tonight!
252
00:18:10,293 --> 00:18:11,584
It's most delicious!
253
00:18:11,751 --> 00:18:13,709
We support you, Head Master!
254
00:18:14,876 --> 00:18:17,043
The fish ball, it's yummy!
255
00:18:17,251 --> 00:18:18,959
We're here, Head Master!
256
00:18:19,793 --> 00:18:21,334
This charm, stick it up front
257
00:18:21,501 --> 00:18:23,418
Nobody will dare disturb you further
258
00:18:25,001 --> 00:18:26,959
This windmill is a token I prayed for you
259
00:18:27,126 --> 00:18:28,834
This bowl of fish can block away bad luck
260
00:18:29,001 --> 00:18:30,543
This banana, you won't famish
261
00:18:30,709 --> 00:18:32,376
Great, we're left to eating bananas
262
00:18:35,334 --> 00:18:38,876
Head Master, we're worthless...
we can't even feed ourselves
263
00:18:39,584 --> 00:18:44,126
You're a sweet lot, it's me who's worthless
264
00:18:50,459 --> 00:18:51,459
What a sweet gathering
265
00:18:51,626 --> 00:18:53,043
I'm Mrs Cheshire Wu
266
00:18:53,209 --> 00:18:55,709
Your District Councilor, vote for me
267
00:18:56,084 --> 00:18:57,709
I must get back to the office now
268
00:18:57,876 --> 00:19:00,001
See you, Head Master, thanks
269
00:19:00,418 --> 00:19:02,084
Enjoy your meal, goodnight
270
00:19:06,918 --> 00:19:08,626
I'm on my way back
271
00:19:08,834 --> 00:19:11,126
A total waste of time
272
00:19:11,793 --> 00:19:14,293
I'm hanging up, don't
want to break my neck here
273
00:19:23,668 --> 00:19:28,584
"A haze of the wood
flutters and palpitates"
274
00:19:29,168 --> 00:19:34,584
"As if there's a dance of light and shadow"
275
00:19:34,751 --> 00:19:40,501
"A haze of the wood chants aloud"
276
00:19:40,668 --> 00:19:45,334
"As clouds and drizzle pick on the strings"
277
00:19:51,209 --> 00:19:56,626
"Alas, happiness is like rain"
278
00:19:56,876 --> 00:20:01,334
"It lasts no longer than morning mist"
279
00:20:01,959 --> 00:20:07,501
"What counts is that when we fall..."
280
00:20:08,043 --> 00:20:10,668
"I could dance with your simmering light"
281
00:20:10,834 --> 00:20:12,418
This auntie Cheshire...
282
00:20:12,543 --> 00:20:15,334
She happened to have a heart of music
283
00:20:15,668 --> 00:20:19,251
Mother said she was a singer when young
284
00:20:19,793 --> 00:20:21,293
What happened next...
285
00:20:21,459 --> 00:20:25,209
Started with her
uncontrollable urge to crap
286
00:20:28,251 --> 00:20:29,519
Your students, they can really sing
287
00:20:29,543 --> 00:20:32,501
But... singing doesn't cost a dime
288
00:20:32,668 --> 00:20:35,626
Head Master taught us
to sing with all his heart
289
00:20:35,793 --> 00:20:37,626
And you worry about
money with their singing?
290
00:20:37,793 --> 00:20:39,918
Put together a choir and hit the jackpot!
291
00:20:40,084 --> 00:20:41,084
Jackpot?
292
00:20:42,001 --> 00:20:43,751
Sure, lots of commercial promotions
293
00:20:43,918 --> 00:20:45,584
take place everyday
294
00:20:45,751 --> 00:20:47,191
And they all need someone to perform
295
00:20:47,334 --> 00:20:49,334
Such activities feed many people
296
00:20:50,334 --> 00:20:52,876
But, with their awful bearing...
297
00:20:53,043 --> 00:20:57,543
Will people want to see them sing?
298
00:20:58,001 --> 00:21:02,876
- Not them, but the kids
- The parents may not agree
299
00:21:04,126 --> 00:21:05,834
Why won't they? It's summer holiday
300
00:21:06,001 --> 00:21:07,769
Such activities take
the kids off their hands
301
00:21:07,793 --> 00:21:10,126
- All free of charge, they'll surely agree
- Really?
302
00:21:13,834 --> 00:21:16,459
You're not becoming a blubbering pawn!
303
00:21:16,626 --> 00:21:18,418
Mother... I'm to sing!
304
00:21:18,584 --> 00:21:20,209
Sing, blubber, it's all the same
305
00:21:20,376 --> 00:21:22,668
And to blubber in public, no less
306
00:21:22,834 --> 00:21:24,626
You'll get wind in your tummy
307
00:21:24,793 --> 00:21:26,376
You get sick
308
00:21:26,543 --> 00:21:28,168
And I get to pay the doctor's bill
309
00:21:28,334 --> 00:21:31,209
So I end up being the blubbering fool
310
00:21:31,376 --> 00:21:32,959
Do you think I'm stupid?
311
00:21:33,126 --> 00:21:36,168
Head Master says it's
a "sea and lake" thing
312
00:21:36,376 --> 00:21:39,709
"A sea and lake thing"! Is he triad?
313
00:21:39,876 --> 00:21:41,626
What a broken school this is
314
00:21:41,793 --> 00:21:43,876
I must get you another school asap
315
00:21:44,043 --> 00:21:46,001
Blubbering for the sea and lake!
316
00:21:46,168 --> 00:21:49,418
If they must, go get a decent voice
317
00:21:49,584 --> 00:21:52,334
Why take in a broken pitch like yours?
318
00:21:52,918 --> 00:21:56,793
Head Master says my meaty built
makes an enchanting voice
319
00:21:56,959 --> 00:21:59,168
As if you sing with your fat ass
320
00:21:59,334 --> 00:22:02,001
Meaty built and enchanting
voice, what nonsense
321
00:22:02,834 --> 00:22:06,334
"La, la, la..."
322
00:22:07,334 --> 00:22:10,709
"La, la, la..."
323
00:22:11,334 --> 00:22:14,584
"La, la, la..."
324
00:22:15,168 --> 00:22:17,418
"La, la, la..."
325
00:22:18,709 --> 00:22:24,293
"La, la, la..."
326
00:22:24,584 --> 00:22:27,209
"Six piggies, six piggies"
327
00:22:27,376 --> 00:22:30,376
"Six swinging piggy heads"
328
00:22:30,543 --> 00:22:33,251
"Boil an egg, boil an egg"
329
00:22:33,418 --> 00:22:36,293
"Boil an egg for me to eat"
330
00:22:36,543 --> 00:22:39,334
"Goo goo... goo gooo"
331
00:22:39,543 --> 00:22:42,376
"Boil an egg to sweeten my heart"
332
00:22:42,584 --> 00:22:45,251
"Sweetened heart, sweetened heart"
333
00:22:45,418 --> 00:22:49,251
"Boil an egg to ease my trouble"
334
00:22:49,834 --> 00:22:52,209
As it turned out, after
we finished our song
335
00:22:52,376 --> 00:22:54,793
The parents all changed their minds
336
00:23:01,501 --> 00:23:05,043
Maybe our singing actually touched them
337
00:23:05,209 --> 00:23:07,084
Or whatever
338
00:23:07,459 --> 00:23:08,751
Anyway, on this day
339
00:23:08,918 --> 00:23:12,459
The Springfield Choir was formed
340
00:23:14,751 --> 00:23:18,126
How fantastic is the power of music!
341
00:23:27,418 --> 00:23:30,834
Lower abdomen...
342
00:23:31,209 --> 00:23:35,084
Where you feel the pee waiting to pour out
343
00:23:35,334 --> 00:23:39,501
Breathe with your lower abdomen
344
00:23:40,459 --> 00:23:41,959
We practiced hard
345
00:23:42,126 --> 00:23:47,501
And Head Master looked everywhere
to find us a manager
346
00:23:48,418 --> 00:23:50,293
He rather insisted that...
347
00:23:50,501 --> 00:23:52,626
Only the best will do
348
00:23:52,793 --> 00:23:53,793
"Golden Manager"
349
00:23:54,293 --> 00:23:56,126
Hey, here's a demo tape for you to listen
350
00:23:56,293 --> 00:23:58,793
A cassette tape?
351
00:23:59,918 --> 00:24:03,126
Maybe the second best will do?
352
00:24:07,376 --> 00:24:08,459
"Silver Manager"
353
00:24:11,334 --> 00:24:14,376
Or the third best?
354
00:24:16,709 --> 00:24:18,251
"Bronze Manager"
355
00:24:29,001 --> 00:24:32,751
No worry, I've a pal
who's connected north and south
356
00:24:33,376 --> 00:24:34,959
He'll be able to help
357
00:24:42,501 --> 00:24:47,293
"Traveling the world is a tricky path"
358
00:24:47,751 --> 00:24:52,876
"I can imagine you
doubting your choice now"
359
00:24:53,334 --> 00:24:57,918
"What lies in front is a long way"
360
00:24:58,084 --> 00:25:03,334
"Who says a decision is easy?"
361
00:25:04,293 --> 00:25:09,584
"The future path is an unknown,
please consider carefully"
362
00:25:09,751 --> 00:25:15,043
"Pray tell, have you ever regretted?"
363
00:25:15,209 --> 00:25:19,834
"Alas, it is too late to turn back now"
364
00:25:20,001 --> 00:25:24,959
"Taking the path reduces one to tears"
365
00:25:25,501 --> 00:25:30,751
"You shed tears, in
reflection of your affection"
366
00:25:30,876 --> 00:25:36,459
"Tears are dried, but past events linger"
367
00:25:37,001 --> 00:25:41,668
"There's a vow inside
that cannot be broken"
368
00:25:41,834 --> 00:25:46,793
"I can only hope, we will meet one day"
369
00:25:47,418 --> 00:25:52,293
"I can only hope, we will meet one day"
370
00:25:53,084 --> 00:25:58,251
"I can only hope, we will meet one day"
371
00:26:05,918 --> 00:26:07,376
Welcome, everybody...
372
00:26:07,543 --> 00:26:09,334
I sing awfully, you mustn't mock me
373
00:26:09,501 --> 00:26:10,793
You sing well
374
00:26:10,959 --> 00:26:12,334
This's Plastic Manager, Big M
375
00:26:12,501 --> 00:26:14,334
Plastic but not ballastic
376
00:26:14,501 --> 00:26:16,543
Call me Big M
377
00:26:17,418 --> 00:26:19,378
Head Master is an honour graduate
at Music Academy
378
00:26:19,501 --> 00:26:21,019
- He specialised in vocal art
- I totally get it,
379
00:26:21,043 --> 00:26:22,418
we're both men with a past
380
00:26:22,584 --> 00:26:23,293
As one says...
381
00:26:23,459 --> 00:26:27,126
Any port in a storm, a Mary finds a Tom
382
00:26:28,959 --> 00:26:29,977
You tell me what's on your mind
383
00:26:30,001 --> 00:26:32,668
The rest is for people like me
with an ace up the sleeve
384
00:26:32,834 --> 00:26:34,043
Or a duo up the stage
385
00:26:35,501 --> 00:26:36,918
Or a trio up the...
386
00:26:37,084 --> 00:26:38,668
Stop buzzing, won't you?
387
00:26:38,834 --> 00:26:41,293
Can you arrange something
for the kids to test the water?
388
00:26:41,459 --> 00:26:43,334
Sure. Anytime. How 'bout tomorrow?
389
00:26:43,501 --> 00:26:45,959
A mall in Shenzhen is
eager to try things out
390
00:26:46,126 --> 00:26:47,126
Tomorrow then
391
00:26:47,168 --> 00:26:49,626
Tomorrow?
392
00:26:49,793 --> 00:26:52,001
We didn't go yesterday, right?
393
00:27:18,501 --> 00:27:21,334
- Cocky, be quick!
- Get you
394
00:27:40,084 --> 00:27:41,084
You're showing me this?
395
00:27:41,126 --> 00:27:42,876
A dead space?
396
00:27:43,001 --> 00:27:44,841
We've brought in
gimmicks to boost the traffic
397
00:27:45,001 --> 00:27:47,459
What traffic? And what gimmicks?
398
00:27:48,793 --> 00:27:50,251
Say, this bin
399
00:27:50,418 --> 00:27:51,918
You think it's a bin...
400
00:27:53,084 --> 00:27:54,293
It's a man!
401
00:27:55,709 --> 00:27:59,251
Tricky, huh, fooling everyone...
402
00:27:59,543 --> 00:28:00,543
Fired!
403
00:28:01,209 --> 00:28:02,394
And what's this thing doing here?
404
00:28:02,418 --> 00:28:04,102
Applying for the Guinness
Record of the World
405
00:28:04,126 --> 00:28:06,751
Embracing a pillar for the longest time!
406
00:28:07,834 --> 00:28:08,876
Gone!
407
00:28:10,793 --> 00:28:12,126
Now, what on earth is this?
408
00:28:12,293 --> 00:28:14,918
A very photogenic installation piece
409
00:28:15,043 --> 00:28:16,543
You see, the whole set
410
00:28:16,709 --> 00:28:17,876
of a pig's intestines is here
411
00:28:18,043 --> 00:28:19,251
Drawing people to come and see
412
00:28:19,418 --> 00:28:21,168
- Where're the people then?
- People...
413
00:28:22,043 --> 00:28:23,918
Floury, we need to heat up the mall
414
00:28:24,084 --> 00:28:25,418
Done
415
00:28:26,126 --> 00:28:27,209
No problem
416
00:28:51,251 --> 00:28:55,043
What?...My son, he's blubbering!
417
00:29:01,459 --> 00:29:03,793
Look, traffic!
418
00:29:30,459 --> 00:29:35,918
"A spring breeze kisses me like
an egg, egg, egg tart"
419
00:29:36,126 --> 00:29:41,709
"A dragonfly on the water
hops, hops, hops and nods"
420
00:29:42,084 --> 00:29:47,543
"Drops of spring shower fall like grapes,
grapes, grapes"
421
00:29:47,876 --> 00:29:53,418
"All things are ready
to grow, a wind to blow"
422
00:29:53,834 --> 00:29:59,168
"Winter is over like a ripen apple"
423
00:29:59,501 --> 00:30:05,334
"Rocking as gently as a farewell prayer"
424
00:30:05,959 --> 00:30:11,543
"A spring breeze kisses me like a bean,
bean, bean curd"
425
00:30:11,834 --> 00:30:17,293
"A watery crook hurries
watery, watery pass"
426
00:30:17,668 --> 00:30:23,126
"A little frog struts like a boiled,
boiled, boiled egg"
427
00:30:23,543 --> 00:30:29,126
"All things are ready to grow,
a wind to blow"
428
00:30:29,501 --> 00:30:35,001
"Winter is over like a pumpkin"
429
00:30:35,168 --> 00:30:40,876
"Rocking as gently as a napping nanny"
430
00:30:41,543 --> 00:30:47,709
"A spring breeze kisses me like an egg,
egg, egg tart"
431
00:30:48,043 --> 00:30:53,543
"All things are bouncing about,
I'm ready to take off"
432
00:30:53,834 --> 00:30:57,376
"I'm ready to take off"
433
00:30:59,668 --> 00:31:02,918
Ladies and gentlemen, the Springfield Choir
434
00:31:03,084 --> 00:31:05,834
Traffic!
435
00:31:19,918 --> 00:31:23,418
Ladies and gentlemen, the Springfield Choir
436
00:31:23,751 --> 00:31:25,251
Bravo!
437
00:31:25,793 --> 00:31:29,043
"My passion is like a pot of fire"
438
00:31:29,376 --> 00:31:32,418
"Burning up the whole desert"
439
00:31:33,043 --> 00:31:36,418
"The sun hides away from me"
440
00:31:36,876 --> 00:31:40,418
"It's scared of me, the fire of love"
441
00:31:42,418 --> 00:31:45,876
"You give me raindrops to moisten my heart"
442
00:31:46,043 --> 00:31:49,584
"I bring you breezes
to blow open your buds"
443
00:31:49,751 --> 00:31:53,376
"Buds of love, belonging to you and me"
444
00:31:53,584 --> 00:31:59,376
"The love between us is
like a passionate desert"
445
00:32:01,209 --> 00:32:04,668
"With me there, the
desert will never be lonely"
446
00:32:04,918 --> 00:32:08,376
"But filled with flowers of youth"
447
00:32:08,668 --> 00:32:12,209
"I'm singing aloud, with
you backing up gently"
448
00:32:12,459 --> 00:32:16,293
"We're drunk in this
river of love in the desert"
449
00:32:18,084 --> 00:32:21,543
"A passionate desert"
450
00:32:26,043 --> 00:32:29,418
Bye, Head Master! Bye, Miss Chan!
451
00:32:31,209 --> 00:32:34,793
It's late, you go home now
452
00:32:34,959 --> 00:32:38,293
I've a night shift later
453
00:32:38,459 --> 00:32:39,793
Can you handle this or not?
454
00:32:39,959 --> 00:32:44,334
Hit the jackpot or join the home lot
455
00:32:44,501 --> 00:32:47,293
You fool, it's not funny
456
00:33:04,543 --> 00:33:05,918
The bride's duck-footed
457
00:33:06,084 --> 00:33:07,709
The groom has treacherous cheeks
458
00:33:07,876 --> 00:33:09,293
And athletic feet
459
00:33:09,793 --> 00:33:10,793
Poor couple!
460
00:33:10,876 --> 00:33:14,168
We first wanted our wedding in Hongkong
461
00:33:14,334 --> 00:33:15,543
At Disney
462
00:33:15,751 --> 00:33:17,918
Candy adores Tweety
463
00:33:18,084 --> 00:33:19,364
A thirty-something? Tweety? Yuk
464
00:33:19,459 --> 00:33:20,876
But Tweety doesn't live at Disney
465
00:33:21,043 --> 00:33:22,918
How would one know?
466
00:33:23,209 --> 00:33:25,001
- What a puffy face
- Poor couple!
467
00:33:25,168 --> 00:33:27,918
We considered an underwater wedding
468
00:33:28,084 --> 00:33:31,168
But Candy doesn't like
the fish biting her toes
469
00:33:31,334 --> 00:33:33,459
She doesn't know about fins
470
00:33:33,626 --> 00:33:34,876
Told you she's duck-footed
471
00:33:35,043 --> 00:33:36,668
And a bucket for waist
472
00:33:36,876 --> 00:33:38,251
Poor couple!
473
00:33:38,376 --> 00:33:40,334
Then I remembered our company mall
474
00:33:40,501 --> 00:33:42,501
Which recently invited
a bunch of kids to sing
475
00:33:42,668 --> 00:33:43,959
And they're so cute!
476
00:33:44,126 --> 00:33:46,043
Cute? A thirty-something? Yuk
477
00:33:46,209 --> 00:33:47,709
With treacherous cheeks
478
00:33:47,876 --> 00:33:49,709
Poor couple!
479
00:33:49,876 --> 00:33:51,084
Now what're they up to?
480
00:33:51,709 --> 00:33:54,209
I shudder to think
481
00:33:54,751 --> 00:33:56,251
Poor couple!
482
00:34:01,334 --> 00:34:04,918
"My love with you, it is white as snow"
483
00:34:05,501 --> 00:34:09,293
"Destined not to be tainted with dust"
484
00:34:10,168 --> 00:34:14,168
"Fabrications are forever nightmarish"
485
00:34:14,418 --> 00:34:18,334
"Your heart must not shake"
486
00:34:19,209 --> 00:34:23,418
"When you see snowflakes float"
487
00:34:23,584 --> 00:34:27,584
"Snow here for me would already be deep"
488
00:34:28,126 --> 00:34:32,959
"Lonely are two separated hearts,
we must trust each other"
489
00:34:33,126 --> 00:34:39,376
"Our true hearts have
flourished an undying love"
490
00:34:41,918 --> 00:34:45,959
"The wintry plum fears not the snow"
491
00:34:46,293 --> 00:34:50,376
"You are stronger than the others"
492
00:34:50,834 --> 00:34:54,918
"Hear not a word what the wind brings"
493
00:34:55,126 --> 00:34:58,959
"Our hearts are sealed"
494
00:34:59,876 --> 00:35:04,126
"When I see snowflakes float"
495
00:35:04,459 --> 00:35:08,418
"My love for you deepens"
496
00:35:08,876 --> 00:35:13,751
"One day, when I return, I'll reclaim"
497
00:35:14,043 --> 00:35:19,751
"The true love our two hearts flourished"
498
00:35:22,793 --> 00:35:27,668
"One day, when I return, I'll reclaim"
499
00:35:28,043 --> 00:35:34,376
"The true love our two hearts flourished"
500
00:35:37,126 --> 00:35:39,876
We've really hit the jackpot this time
501
00:35:40,043 --> 00:35:41,543
They're singing for a commercial
502
00:35:48,793 --> 00:35:51,709
"Car, car, car, car, car"
503
00:35:51,876 --> 00:35:57,626
"There's a car, car, car, car,
heading to you pa"
504
00:35:57,793 --> 00:36:00,251
"Papa, papa"
505
00:36:00,418 --> 00:36:03,668
"Car, car, car, car, car"
506
00:36:03,834 --> 00:36:09,084
"There's a car, car, car, car,
heading to you pa"
507
00:36:09,251 --> 00:36:11,043
- "Watch out, papa, papa"
- Good take
508
00:36:11,209 --> 00:36:13,459
Pee-break for the kids
509
00:36:13,876 --> 00:36:15,626
This's going to hit like shit
510
00:36:16,334 --> 00:36:17,751
The electricity's gone
511
00:36:18,043 --> 00:36:19,418
Ah, incidentally...
512
00:36:19,584 --> 00:36:24,418
The performance fees
we made, is it possible...?
513
00:36:24,584 --> 00:36:26,043
Say no more
514
00:36:26,459 --> 00:36:29,959
You and me, we're hooked with a string
515
00:36:30,584 --> 00:36:33,084
A string that links to our hearts
516
00:36:35,751 --> 00:36:38,709
From our hearts to our wrists
517
00:36:39,043 --> 00:36:41,043
From our wrists to...
518
00:36:41,209 --> 00:36:42,543
What about the money you owe us?
519
00:36:43,209 --> 00:36:44,209
Excuse me
520
00:36:44,709 --> 00:36:47,126
My dad's cousin, she died
521
00:36:47,293 --> 00:36:48,543
What? Who?
522
00:36:54,543 --> 00:36:57,168
"Mary is my dad's cousin"
523
00:36:57,334 --> 00:37:00,001
"Thirty-something, smooth like hell"
524
00:37:00,168 --> 00:37:02,834
"Mary is my dad's cousin"
525
00:37:03,001 --> 00:37:07,751
"Who looks a bit like... you!"
526
00:37:08,918 --> 00:37:11,459
"Mary is a little doggy"
527
00:37:11,584 --> 00:37:14,251
"Cutesy cutesy, fluffy like hell"
528
00:37:14,418 --> 00:37:17,084
"Mary is a little doggy"
529
00:37:17,251 --> 00:37:22,168
"Watch out, she does... bite you!"
530
00:37:23,084 --> 00:37:25,626
"Mary is my seventh aunt"
531
00:37:25,793 --> 00:37:28,543
"Double-boiled egg, slimly like hell"
532
00:37:28,709 --> 00:37:31,251
"Mary is my seventh aunt"
533
00:37:31,459 --> 00:37:36,501
"Beware, she's such a... bomb!"
534
00:37:37,959 --> 00:37:39,334
You're here
535
00:37:39,501 --> 00:37:42,751
Let me introduce, Mr Boss, Head Master
536
00:37:45,459 --> 00:37:47,126
I need to pee
537
00:37:47,293 --> 00:37:48,126
Go then
538
00:37:48,293 --> 00:37:49,501
Where's the loo?
539
00:37:49,668 --> 00:37:52,209
You ask me? Go find it yourself
540
00:37:58,751 --> 00:37:59,501
Please...
541
00:37:59,668 --> 00:38:00,293
What?
542
00:38:00,501 --> 00:38:03,168
Please, where's the loo?
543
00:38:03,334 --> 00:38:07,793
The loo? What exactly is your purpose?
544
00:38:08,459 --> 00:38:11,043
Do you want to pee, to poo...
545
00:38:11,209 --> 00:38:15,168
To wash your hands, a sauna or a spa?
546
00:38:15,334 --> 00:38:16,334
Ay?
547
00:38:16,418 --> 00:38:19,168
Tell you what, you go straight down
548
00:38:19,334 --> 00:38:21,876
Turn left at the end
549
00:38:22,043 --> 00:38:24,168
Go all the way down
550
00:38:24,334 --> 00:38:26,376
At the end, there'll be four doors
551
00:38:26,543 --> 00:38:29,751
Pick one and see if it fits you
552
00:38:29,918 --> 00:38:31,459
But that's far
553
00:38:31,626 --> 00:38:34,168
Not really, you in a hurry?
554
00:38:34,334 --> 00:38:37,209
Wait here for the shuttle bus then
555
00:38:37,376 --> 00:38:39,209
It comes every 15 minutes
556
00:38:39,709 --> 00:38:40,709
15 minutes?
557
00:38:40,751 --> 00:38:44,501
But it takes that long
to go around our house
558
00:38:44,668 --> 00:38:46,834
Or you can take a horse
559
00:38:47,001 --> 00:38:50,084
I can lend you a horse, a thoroughbred
560
00:38:50,251 --> 00:38:52,001
I can't ride
561
00:38:52,168 --> 00:38:53,709
Can you swim?
562
00:38:53,876 --> 00:38:55,334
I breaststroke a bit
563
00:38:55,543 --> 00:38:59,251
Good, you go five rooms down
564
00:38:59,418 --> 00:39:01,209
Inside, there's a jacuzzi
565
00:39:01,376 --> 00:39:05,209
On the other side of
the jacuzzi, there's a loo
566
00:39:05,376 --> 00:39:07,501
Be careful, though
567
00:39:07,668 --> 00:39:09,584
That's a fierce pool
568
00:39:09,709 --> 00:39:11,001
You have fins?
569
00:39:11,168 --> 00:39:12,418
Sharks have been sighted
570
00:39:12,584 --> 00:39:14,251
But I only want to pee
571
00:39:14,418 --> 00:39:16,584
Arh, stupid you
572
00:39:16,709 --> 00:39:19,043
Can't you go home to pee?
573
00:39:19,209 --> 00:39:20,293
Where do you live?
574
00:39:20,459 --> 00:39:21,209
Tai Kok Tsui
575
00:39:21,376 --> 00:39:24,709
That's close by... hop on a taxi
576
00:39:24,876 --> 00:39:26,584
And save the trouble
577
00:39:26,751 --> 00:39:29,584
You take the lift next to the main door
578
00:39:29,751 --> 00:39:33,584
Go to ground floor, and... voila, ciao!
579
00:39:36,751 --> 00:39:38,501
I thought you wanted to pee?
580
00:39:38,668 --> 00:39:39,668
Why're you standing here?
581
00:39:39,751 --> 00:39:42,084
To... get a taxi
582
00:39:47,418 --> 00:39:50,084
"Easter, and Mid-autumn"
583
00:39:50,251 --> 00:39:52,918
"Happy holiday, everybody"
584
00:39:53,084 --> 00:39:57,918
"Another year goes around... us!"
585
00:39:59,001 --> 00:40:01,501
"Happy birthday, lucky girl!"
586
00:40:01,668 --> 00:40:04,334
"We wish you, smooth like silk"
587
00:40:04,501 --> 00:40:07,209
"Happy birthday, oh happy birthday"
588
00:40:07,376 --> 00:40:12,376
"Everybody truly loves... you!"
589
00:40:13,251 --> 00:40:16,168
Thank you for having
us here, little people!
590
00:40:16,334 --> 00:40:19,709
And many thanks to our birthday girl
591
00:40:19,918 --> 00:40:21,793
Miss Babe!
592
00:40:22,793 --> 00:40:24,668
Pray tell, why such a long pee?
593
00:40:25,918 --> 00:40:26,959
It turned to no. 2
594
00:40:28,793 --> 00:40:30,084
May I introduce...
595
00:40:30,751 --> 00:40:32,626
The Springfield Choir
596
00:40:33,751 --> 00:40:36,209
Yes! Bravo!
597
00:40:43,876 --> 00:40:50,084
"We're spring time, the flowers of spring"
598
00:40:50,251 --> 00:40:56,668
"We're the flowers of spring time"
599
00:40:56,793 --> 00:41:03,126
"We're flowers, spring is our mother"
600
00:41:03,293 --> 00:41:09,709
"Ah, we're the flowers of spring time"
601
00:41:10,001 --> 00:41:16,501
"Tiny morning glories,
bla-la-la, la-la-la-la"
602
00:41:16,668 --> 00:41:23,126
"Tiny hibiscuses, tiny lilies,"
603
00:41:23,293 --> 00:41:30,043
"We're flowers, spring is our mother"
604
00:41:30,209 --> 00:41:36,501
"Ah, we're the flowers of spring time"
605
00:41:37,001 --> 00:41:43,543
"Tiny orange trumpets,
bla-la-la, la-la-la-la"
606
00:41:43,709 --> 00:41:50,293
"Tiny roses, tiny peonies,
open up to embrace mother"
607
00:41:50,459 --> 00:41:57,209
"We're flowers, loving our mother"
608
00:41:57,376 --> 00:42:04,876
"We're flowers of spring time"
609
00:42:07,334 --> 00:42:08,751
Say, you must be Miss Chan
610
00:42:09,709 --> 00:42:11,209
What brought you out here?
611
00:42:11,959 --> 00:42:12,959
Are you Hymn?
612
00:42:13,126 --> 00:42:14,876
Head Master's so proud of you
613
00:42:15,043 --> 00:42:17,501
Our token student who
studies Architecture at HKU
614
00:42:17,668 --> 00:42:19,543
I quitted
615
00:42:19,751 --> 00:42:21,834
Being a magician is much more fun for me
616
00:42:22,001 --> 00:42:22,709
Fun?
617
00:42:22,959 --> 00:42:25,793
As an architect, we'd all end
up building houses like this, no?
618
00:42:26,668 --> 00:42:28,709
Look how ugly they're
619
00:42:29,501 --> 00:42:31,834
But I dream owning one of those
620
00:42:33,001 --> 00:42:34,001
Imagine...
621
00:42:34,459 --> 00:42:36,501
If only I'd get rid of all this in a blink
622
00:42:37,043 --> 00:42:38,543
Now that'd be awesome!
623
00:43:08,334 --> 00:43:10,709
For the 10th Top of the Commercial Pops
624
00:43:10,876 --> 00:43:12,918
Finalists for the Education Division are...
625
00:43:13,834 --> 00:43:15,543
626
00:43:18,043 --> 00:43:20,543
"Cut my toenails, cut my toenails"
627
00:43:20,709 --> 00:43:23,459
"Before my meal I cut my toenails"
628
00:43:23,626 --> 00:43:26,084
"Click, click, click..."
629
00:43:26,251 --> 00:43:28,459
"Ay, I can go on sail!"
630
00:43:29,084 --> 00:43:31,626
"Friends hike and we cut our toenails"
631
00:43:31,834 --> 00:43:34,376
"Classmates barbeque
and we cut our toenails"
632
00:43:34,543 --> 00:43:37,334
"Click, click, click"
633
00:43:37,501 --> 00:43:41,251
"Ay, we can go on sail!"
634
00:43:42,751 --> 00:43:45,043
635
00:43:46,459 --> 00:43:50,293
"I go to supermarket with my mother"
636
00:43:50,459 --> 00:43:54,168
"I want sausage she gives me banana"
637
00:43:54,584 --> 00:43:58,209
"I want sausage she gives me banana"
638
00:43:58,376 --> 00:44:02,168
"You eat banana, it beats eating sausage"
639
00:44:02,543 --> 00:44:06,126
"You eat a banana, it beats the sausage"
640
00:44:06,501 --> 00:44:10,251
"I grab the banana, eat it in one gulp!"
641
00:44:11,376 --> 00:44:13,251
642
00:44:17,501 --> 00:44:20,376
"Car, car, car, car, car"
643
00:44:20,543 --> 00:44:25,959
"There's a car, car, car,
car heading your way pa"
644
00:44:26,126 --> 00:44:28,876
"Papa, papa, papa"
645
00:44:29,501 --> 00:44:32,334
"Car, car, car, car, car"
646
00:44:32,501 --> 00:44:37,918
"There's a car, car, car,
car heading your way pa"
647
00:44:38,084 --> 00:44:40,959
"Watch out, papa, papa"
648
00:44:41,334 --> 00:44:44,334
Now comes the moment of truth
649
00:44:45,293 --> 00:44:49,126
The winner of 10th Top
of the Commercial Pops
650
00:44:49,209 --> 00:44:51,793
Education Division, is...
651
00:44:52,459 --> 00:44:58,959
by the Springfield Choir
652
00:45:00,126 --> 00:45:01,376
How cute you're!
653
00:45:02,793 --> 00:45:04,168
You fatso!
654
00:45:06,334 --> 00:45:08,168
Come on, say a few words
655
00:45:10,918 --> 00:45:14,501
Don't be shy, tell us how you feel
656
00:45:15,376 --> 00:45:18,584
I... feel a crap churning down!
657
00:45:26,418 --> 00:45:29,501
"Car, car, car, car, car"
658
00:45:29,668 --> 00:45:34,959
"There's a car, car, car,
car heading your way pa"
659
00:45:35,126 --> 00:45:38,043
"Papa, papa, papa"
660
00:45:38,584 --> 00:45:41,876
Maybe there wasn't
any crap churning down...
661
00:45:42,376 --> 00:45:43,959
Maybe I was just touched
662
00:45:44,209 --> 00:45:47,626
Actually I had no idea how to be "touched"
663
00:45:48,251 --> 00:45:50,834
I just felt this churning inside
664
00:45:51,418 --> 00:45:55,459
As if I'd break into
tears, or giggle like mad
665
00:45:55,918 --> 00:45:57,501
It was weird
666
00:46:02,876 --> 00:46:04,543
After the ceremony
667
00:46:04,751 --> 00:46:07,251
We went for celebration dinner
668
00:46:07,459 --> 00:46:11,084
We kids expected
lobster, but it was not to be
669
00:46:11,293 --> 00:46:13,459
Though everybody was happy
670
00:46:13,626 --> 00:46:15,334
A toast to you, Head Master!
671
00:46:15,501 --> 00:46:17,793
Yes, let's drink up!
672
00:46:19,001 --> 00:46:20,001
The electricity!
673
00:46:20,293 --> 00:46:21,626
Now?
674
00:46:21,793 --> 00:46:22,977
Head Master has a few words to say
675
00:46:23,001 --> 00:46:25,834
Right, let's give him a big hand!
676
00:46:26,001 --> 00:46:29,293
Well... actually...
677
00:46:29,751 --> 00:46:32,709
Regarding the electricity at school...
678
00:46:32,876 --> 00:46:33,876
Well said!
679
00:46:34,001 --> 00:46:36,001
Folks, clap your hands!
680
00:46:36,626 --> 00:46:37,626
Let's dig in
681
00:46:37,918 --> 00:46:39,334
Drumstick for you
682
00:46:39,501 --> 00:46:41,043
Please
683
00:46:41,209 --> 00:46:42,293
Let's eat
684
00:46:43,543 --> 00:46:44,043
Head Master wants to know
685
00:46:44,168 --> 00:46:46,043
When're you handing over our money?
686
00:46:46,834 --> 00:46:50,793
Not now, let's eat first
687
00:46:50,959 --> 00:46:52,043
Say no more
688
00:46:52,209 --> 00:46:54,501
We're men with a past
689
00:46:55,209 --> 00:46:59,793
"If there's a will, there's drill!" Right?
690
00:47:02,043 --> 00:47:03,668
I'm on this, pronto
691
00:47:04,793 --> 00:47:05,793
Excuse me
692
00:47:05,959 --> 00:47:09,751
Hey... Aunt Seven, she's dead!
693
00:47:10,709 --> 00:47:11,727
You people... enough is enough!
694
00:47:11,751 --> 00:47:14,334
So, at the celebration dinner
695
00:47:14,501 --> 00:47:17,084
Miss Chan left in a fury
696
00:47:17,293 --> 00:47:21,293
I gallantly finished off her dessert
697
00:47:21,543 --> 00:47:22,543
Yummy
698
00:47:27,209 --> 00:47:28,376
After the award
699
00:47:28,543 --> 00:47:31,168
We were poured with performing offers
700
00:47:31,459 --> 00:47:34,126
Big said we needed to expand
701
00:47:34,543 --> 00:47:36,084
With each audition...
702
00:47:36,251 --> 00:47:38,793
Members of our choir grew
703
00:47:53,793 --> 00:47:57,043
Maybe we can do an IPO...
704
00:48:03,001 --> 00:48:06,876
With more kids came heavier workload
705
00:48:07,209 --> 00:48:11,126
Miss Chan left us and didn't come back
706
00:48:11,626 --> 00:48:14,584
Everything fell into Head Master's hands
707
00:48:17,418 --> 00:48:18,626
And then...
708
00:48:18,918 --> 00:48:21,001
We've hit a real jackpot
709
00:48:21,168 --> 00:48:23,418
Perfect Andy's Concert...
710
00:48:23,584 --> 00:48:25,834
They were looking for kiddo singers
711
00:48:26,001 --> 00:48:28,709
And we were invited for an audition
712
00:48:29,168 --> 00:48:30,501
Perfect Andy... my Crap Idol!
713
00:48:30,751 --> 00:48:33,418
Of course we worked hard to nail the job
714
00:48:41,126 --> 00:48:43,043
We missed Miss Chan
715
00:48:43,209 --> 00:48:45,918
If only she were here
716
00:48:52,209 --> 00:48:53,809
His lung contorts, his liver contorts...
717
00:48:53,918 --> 00:48:57,501
All his intestines contort, he's fine
718
00:48:57,668 --> 00:48:58,959
You call that fine?
719
00:48:59,126 --> 00:49:00,126
Fine
720
00:49:00,168 --> 00:49:01,435
So, is he going to wake up or what?
721
00:49:01,459 --> 00:49:02,834
Try calling him beside his bed
722
00:49:03,001 --> 00:49:05,876
Maybe that'll wake him up
723
00:49:06,626 --> 00:49:08,709
Head Master, we support you!
724
00:49:08,876 --> 00:49:10,959
I was kidding
725
00:49:11,168 --> 00:49:11,959
What did you think?
726
00:49:12,126 --> 00:49:14,376
I'm a doctor, not a shaman
727
00:49:15,334 --> 00:49:18,959
Head Master, you've been trying hard enough
728
00:49:19,126 --> 00:49:21,084
Just fold the kindergarten up
729
00:49:21,251 --> 00:49:22,876
And it's not like this is the first time
730
00:49:23,043 --> 00:49:25,084
The school has been
folded up many times before?
731
00:49:25,251 --> 00:49:27,459
Yup, it just kept returning
with a different name
732
00:49:28,043 --> 00:49:30,918
In my days, it was called Winter Duck
733
00:49:31,126 --> 00:49:32,959
But there weren't enough students
734
00:49:33,126 --> 00:49:35,209
So it was closed
735
00:49:35,334 --> 00:49:37,334
And Summer Cock came after that
736
00:49:37,793 --> 00:49:41,584
"Cock in summer, cock in summer"
737
00:49:41,751 --> 00:49:45,709
"Goo goo growls, goo goo growls"
738
00:49:45,876 --> 00:49:47,751
"Quickly, bring an air-con"
739
00:49:47,918 --> 00:49:49,793
"Quickly, bring an air-con"
740
00:49:49,959 --> 00:49:54,084
"End the heat, end the heat!"
741
00:49:54,584 --> 00:49:56,334
It was Autumn Cricket when I started there
742
00:49:57,001 --> 00:49:59,251
It only changed to Springfield when I left
743
00:50:00,001 --> 00:50:02,543
And it kept moving as
he couldn't pay the rent
744
00:50:02,709 --> 00:50:04,168
Boy, talk about living in fast lane!
745
00:50:04,334 --> 00:50:05,084
Right
746
00:50:05,334 --> 00:50:07,584
Every year we thought
we'd be the final class
747
00:50:07,751 --> 00:50:11,376
But every time he kept struggling back
748
00:50:14,918 --> 00:50:21,418
"Beautiful dreamer, wake unto me"
749
00:50:21,751 --> 00:50:27,918
"Starlight and dewdrops
are waiting for thee"
750
00:50:28,834 --> 00:50:35,251
"Sounds of the rude
world, heard in the day"
751
00:50:36,001 --> 00:50:42,668
"Lull'd by the moonlight
have all pass'd away!"
752
00:50:43,876 --> 00:50:50,168
"Beautiful dreamer, queen of my song"
753
00:50:50,751 --> 00:50:58,751
"List while I woo thee with soft melody"
754
00:50:59,334 --> 00:51:03,334
The mates from Music Academy
755
00:51:04,334 --> 00:51:06,709
We all changed jobs long ago
756
00:51:07,293 --> 00:51:11,209
Only this silly man held onto his dream
757
00:51:11,626 --> 00:51:14,876
Of setting up his choir
758
00:51:22,001 --> 00:51:26,834
Imagine, it wasn't an easy time for anybody
759
00:51:27,418 --> 00:51:30,959
Who had the leisure for music?
760
00:51:31,334 --> 00:51:33,626
But he insisted, saying...
761
00:51:34,293 --> 00:51:38,668
Music, particularly the singing of children
762
00:51:39,418 --> 00:51:45,668
Is the blossoming gift from heaven
763
00:51:46,876 --> 00:51:51,584
Now look where this gift has led him
764
00:51:52,001 --> 00:51:54,501
Even Miss Chan jumped ship
765
00:51:54,709 --> 00:51:56,418
Jackpot time!
766
00:51:56,959 --> 00:52:00,376
Audition for the Perfect
Andy Concert tomorrow!
767
00:52:00,626 --> 00:52:02,501
What, he's still playing dead here?
768
00:52:02,668 --> 00:52:04,251
Let him play dead
769
00:52:04,418 --> 00:52:06,543
He'll enjoy the jackpot better
770
00:52:08,918 --> 00:52:10,598
But who's taking the kids to the audition?
771
00:52:10,751 --> 00:52:13,501
Wake up, you, wake up
772
00:52:13,959 --> 00:52:15,168
I'll do it
773
00:52:19,709 --> 00:52:22,001
"Twilight time, clouds are low"
774
00:52:22,168 --> 00:52:26,168
"Little old man lifts his hoe for taro"
775
00:52:26,459 --> 00:52:28,959
"Dig and dig, did and dig"
776
00:52:29,126 --> 00:52:31,834
"Deep in the soil appears a loach"
777
00:52:32,001 --> 00:52:36,751
"E-ar-huh-do... that's delicacy!"
778
00:52:37,501 --> 00:52:43,043
"Twilight time, clouds are low..."
779
00:52:43,459 --> 00:52:45,793
Conductor... my lower abdomen
780
00:52:45,959 --> 00:52:46,751
It's churning
781
00:52:46,918 --> 00:52:49,126
No churning until this is over
782
00:52:49,543 --> 00:52:51,709
Now we do warm up
783
00:52:56,543 --> 00:52:59,043
You dumplings! Which school are you from?
784
00:52:59,209 --> 00:53:02,751
Beefy Firm Kindergarten
785
00:53:02,918 --> 00:53:06,209
That's a nice one! Is
your school recruiting?
786
00:53:16,168 --> 00:53:17,209
I'm listening in
787
00:53:18,376 --> 00:53:19,584
You may begin
788
00:53:19,793 --> 00:53:22,709
Sing well, or no pee
789
00:53:23,584 --> 00:53:26,668
Now, one a two...
790
00:53:26,834 --> 00:53:28,459
Maybe I shall do it
791
00:53:28,626 --> 00:53:30,043
Miss Chan!
792
00:53:30,334 --> 00:53:33,001
Liberation!
793
00:53:33,543 --> 00:53:34,668
Take this easy
794
00:53:34,834 --> 00:53:37,543
Just do it the way Head Master teaches you
795
00:53:38,459 --> 00:53:46,459
"Catkins blowing in the wind.
Scattered all over the wild"
796
00:53:49,043 --> 00:53:54,084
"Floating as the wind goes, here and there"
797
00:53:54,251 --> 00:53:59,543
"If only we could stop
here and be together"
798
00:53:59,709 --> 00:54:02,168
"I'll be the braised pork"
799
00:54:02,334 --> 00:54:04,876
"I'll be the braised pork"
800
00:54:05,043 --> 00:54:07,501
"I'll be your braised pork..."
801
00:54:07,668 --> 00:54:10,168
"Braised together with
you, my pickled mustard"
802
00:54:10,334 --> 00:54:12,834
"I'll be the braised pork"
803
00:54:13,001 --> 00:54:15,584
"I'll be the braised pork"
804
00:54:15,751 --> 00:54:18,209
"I'll be your braised pork..."
805
00:54:18,376 --> 00:54:20,834
"Braised together with
you, my pickled mustard"
806
00:54:22,501 --> 00:54:27,668
Doc, I need to crap
807
00:54:27,834 --> 00:54:32,834
Crapping is healthy, I crap too
808
00:54:33,001 --> 00:54:35,126
Not that, heaven knows why
809
00:54:37,626 --> 00:54:39,501
Listening to that fatso sang
810
00:54:40,918 --> 00:54:43,834
I wanted to crap
811
00:54:44,001 --> 00:54:48,251
Don't be silly, that is no crap
812
00:54:48,418 --> 00:54:50,168
That's being touched
813
00:54:50,501 --> 00:54:54,501
Maybe you've been a
professional far too long
814
00:54:54,668 --> 00:54:58,834
You've forgotten how to be touched
815
00:54:59,001 --> 00:55:04,834
By that warm stirring inside you
816
00:55:05,501 --> 00:55:09,668
Go and find the fatso
817
00:55:09,959 --> 00:55:14,834
Together, you two will
sing for a stirring end
818
00:55:15,043 --> 00:55:17,543
You keep stirring, till
everyone wants to...
819
00:55:17,709 --> 00:55:20,709
Crap!
820
00:55:25,251 --> 00:55:33,251
"Love... Ah..."
821
00:55:35,834 --> 00:55:38,209
"I'll be the braised pork"
822
00:55:38,376 --> 00:55:40,876
"I'll be the braised pork"
823
00:55:41,043 --> 00:55:43,459
"I'll be the braised pork"
824
00:55:43,626 --> 00:55:46,126
"Braised together with
you, my pickled mustard"
825
00:55:46,293 --> 00:55:48,834
"I'll be the braised pork"
826
00:55:49,001 --> 00:55:51,543
"I'll be the braised pork"
827
00:55:51,709 --> 00:55:54,168
"The braised pork for you"
828
00:55:54,334 --> 00:55:57,043
"We'll make a perfect item"
829
00:56:30,876 --> 00:56:33,793
That's $48,800, after a seasonal discount
830
00:56:41,751 --> 00:56:45,209
Like that, my broken voice...
831
00:56:45,376 --> 00:56:48,293
Ended up singing in a China tour
832
00:56:49,668 --> 00:56:53,751
On stage, I kept hearing this little...
833
00:56:53,918 --> 00:56:55,584
Tinkling inside me
834
00:56:56,043 --> 00:57:00,709
I imagined the bells
of angels were like that
835
00:57:08,334 --> 00:57:09,959
The day Head Master was released
836
00:57:10,126 --> 00:57:13,001
Miss Chan didn't see him home immediately
837
00:57:13,459 --> 00:57:15,459
She thought, as we were all there
838
00:57:15,668 --> 00:57:19,418
We'd march up to Big's
office to collect our money
839
00:57:19,793 --> 00:57:24,001
Counting our fee for the China tour...
840
00:57:24,168 --> 00:57:28,334
She believed the school'd
survive for some years
841
00:57:28,543 --> 00:57:30,168
We hit the Jackpot!
842
00:57:35,959 --> 00:57:37,834
And who would you be?
843
00:57:38,001 --> 00:57:40,251
The Head Master's Money Collection Team
844
00:57:40,418 --> 00:57:42,001
Head Master...
845
00:57:42,168 --> 00:57:44,668
Here... this must be for you
846
00:57:48,001 --> 00:57:52,459
"The hill may burn, I take to the urn..."
847
00:57:54,126 --> 00:57:56,876
"I lost in stock, I sail
to a shoe shop. Bye!"
848
00:57:57,043 --> 00:57:59,668
What? Where does that leave us?
849
00:58:01,043 --> 00:58:03,209
To join the home lot
850
00:58:22,709 --> 00:58:26,668
Apparently, during the
time of the Andy tour
851
00:58:27,084 --> 00:58:30,543
The stock index had
fallen over 10,000 points
852
00:58:30,793 --> 00:58:33,459
Mother claimed, if not because of me
853
00:58:33,626 --> 00:58:35,334
She'd have eloped too
854
00:58:36,209 --> 00:58:39,334
Babe moved out of her luxurious house
855
00:58:39,751 --> 00:58:41,876
She said, the loo in her old house
856
00:58:42,043 --> 00:58:44,793
Was bigger than their new apartment
857
00:58:45,209 --> 00:58:48,376
I visited her once, the
place was much smaller
858
00:58:48,626 --> 00:58:50,251
But even then...
859
00:58:50,418 --> 00:58:53,543
Their loo was still bigger than our flat
860
00:58:55,459 --> 00:58:59,084
As for Miss Chan,
she was reduced to a miserable shadow...
861
00:58:59,251 --> 00:59:00,834
Wrapped in a gloomy cloud
862
00:59:01,126 --> 00:59:03,918
I thought she was worried for the school
863
00:59:04,209 --> 00:59:06,876
Then I heard from the others
864
00:59:07,043 --> 00:59:11,168
She was in love with Hymn the magician
865
00:59:11,459 --> 00:59:14,001
But then he did a Houdini
866
00:59:14,251 --> 00:59:17,001
And disappeared into the vast
867
00:59:20,084 --> 00:59:21,584
After all our doings
868
00:59:21,793 --> 00:59:23,918
Just when we thought we had lit up the sky
869
00:59:24,084 --> 00:59:27,543
With numerous stars glittering
870
00:59:27,959 --> 00:59:31,584
Someone somewhere stumbled
871
00:59:31,834 --> 00:59:33,418
And kicked off the socket
872
00:59:33,751 --> 00:59:36,584
The darkness sent all
angels home to slumber
873
00:59:42,918 --> 00:59:46,584
Big left us with one unfinished business
874
00:59:46,751 --> 00:59:50,709
He had signed us for a performance in Macau
875
00:59:51,251 --> 00:59:53,459
We didn't plan to go at first
876
00:59:54,001 --> 00:59:58,626
But Head Master said, a deal is a deal
877
00:59:58,918 --> 01:00:02,501
He also said, let there be a final bet!
878
01:00:03,126 --> 01:00:04,406
But betting with what, and whom?
879
01:00:04,626 --> 01:00:07,918
My mind boggled!
880
01:00:24,793 --> 01:00:30,251
"The day will be over soon,
me and you watching the sunset"
881
01:00:30,668 --> 01:00:36,126
"Lying under the clouds on the hilltop,
we greet an overture"
882
01:00:36,584 --> 01:00:40,959
"The night falls rapidly"
883
01:00:48,668 --> 01:00:54,168
"Dust and ash float in
the air, leaves hovering"
884
01:00:54,668 --> 01:01:00,168
"Traces of the car from yesteryear
can no longer be recognised"
885
01:01:00,418 --> 01:01:05,584
"The constellation has changed"
886
01:01:05,959 --> 01:01:11,334
"Though the sun also rises"
887
01:01:12,001 --> 01:01:18,001
"If I shall not come back after taking off"
888
01:01:18,168 --> 01:01:23,834
"Will you finally notice my existence?"
889
01:01:24,001 --> 01:01:29,793
"Looking at the ceiling, a dream
we once made up comes back"
890
01:01:29,959 --> 01:01:35,334
"I cannot be there by your side"
891
01:01:54,084 --> 01:01:59,418
"I'm willing to turn into
a breeze and drift away"
892
01:02:06,043 --> 01:02:11,043
"I'm tired. I must go home and rest"
893
01:02:37,793 --> 01:02:39,209
Maestro, long time no see
894
01:02:40,001 --> 01:02:41,001
And you're...?
895
01:02:41,459 --> 01:02:45,501
The Springfield Choir
896
01:02:45,668 --> 01:02:48,626
Great, right on time, Springfield
897
01:02:48,793 --> 01:02:50,626
You're on next
898
01:03:37,126 --> 01:03:38,168
To be able to perform here
899
01:03:38,334 --> 01:03:41,126
It is our greatest honor, thank you
900
01:03:41,668 --> 01:03:42,084
Coming up next...
901
01:03:42,251 --> 01:03:44,834
We have a children's choir from Hongkong
902
01:03:45,209 --> 01:03:48,043
Please welcome the Springfield Choir
903
01:03:49,834 --> 01:03:53,834
We were kids, but one
thing we did understand
904
01:03:54,001 --> 01:03:57,793
We'd put in extra effort
for our farewell performance
905
01:03:57,959 --> 01:04:00,834
"Car, car, car, car, car"
906
01:04:01,001 --> 01:04:06,543
"There's a car, car, car,
car heading your way pa"
907
01:04:06,709 --> 01:04:09,418
"Papa, papa, papa"
908
01:04:09,876 --> 01:04:12,751
"Car, car, car, car, car"
909
01:04:12,918 --> 01:04:17,001
"There's a car, car, car, car..."
910
01:04:17,168 --> 01:04:19,168
What on earth has Big got us into?
911
01:04:24,334 --> 01:04:25,751
"Car, car, car, car, car"
912
01:04:26,876 --> 01:04:28,668
What a powerful performance
913
01:04:29,959 --> 01:04:32,543
Few months ago, I was
working with my best friend
914
01:04:33,251 --> 01:04:37,751
Fernando de la Macau,
the world's greatest living baritone
915
01:04:37,918 --> 01:04:39,352
- Pre-producing a documentary...
- De la Macau?
916
01:04:39,376 --> 01:04:40,876
That'd shed light on the man's music
917
01:04:41,793 --> 01:04:44,751
Unfortunately,
this film will now never be finished
918
01:04:45,001 --> 01:04:46,560
Looking back,
I wonder if he had this premonition
919
01:04:46,584 --> 01:04:48,024
That he wouldn't be with us for long
920
01:04:48,751 --> 01:04:49,918
During one session
921
01:04:50,543 --> 01:04:52,418
He brought up the topic of his own funeral
922
01:04:53,209 --> 01:04:55,251
He said he wished his funeral...
923
01:04:55,418 --> 01:04:58,209
To be a splendid concert
924
01:05:25,668 --> 01:05:27,501
I truly hope Music is
the only track I leave
925
01:05:27,668 --> 01:05:28,876
In this world
926
01:05:29,668 --> 01:05:31,793
But not the ostentation
and vanity we see around us
927
01:05:36,668 --> 01:05:39,459
I was born in Macau,
my maternal grandma was Chinese
928
01:05:40,459 --> 01:05:42,179
When I was three,
mother took me to Hongkong
929
01:05:42,334 --> 01:05:44,209
And lodged me at her mother's place
930
01:05:46,168 --> 01:05:48,168
I was alone, without friends
931
01:05:48,459 --> 01:05:49,834
And spoke little Cantonese
932
01:05:51,959 --> 01:05:54,293
Grandma put me in a kindergarten nearby
933
01:05:55,793 --> 01:05:56,959
It was a crude establishment
934
01:05:57,418 --> 01:06:00,084
All the students were
of lowly origin like myself
935
01:06:02,084 --> 01:06:04,376
However, at that school
936
01:06:05,418 --> 01:06:07,418
I encountered a Head
Master who truly loved music
937
01:06:08,043 --> 01:06:09,626
Who let me realise my voice...
938
01:06:10,418 --> 01:06:12,209
Was good enough for heaven
939
01:06:17,709 --> 01:06:19,751
Living in Hongkong for that few months
940
01:06:20,376 --> 01:06:21,626
Completely changed my life
941
01:06:22,959 --> 01:06:25,501
Music has never left me since
942
01:06:26,834 --> 01:06:29,376
And that is the biggest blessing of my life
943
01:06:30,834 --> 01:06:32,474
How I wish I could tell this in person...
944
01:06:32,501 --> 01:06:34,709
To my respectable Head Master
945
01:07:00,376 --> 01:07:01,376
After I grew up
946
01:07:01,709 --> 01:07:03,293
I went back to Hongkong a few times
947
01:07:04,126 --> 01:07:05,876
But as I was young then
948
01:07:06,168 --> 01:07:07,209
With my limited Chinese
949
01:07:07,751 --> 01:07:10,293
I'd only remember
the school's name was Duck related
950
01:07:11,334 --> 01:07:12,959
Or possibly Chicken
951
01:07:14,876 --> 01:07:16,376
I never found the school
952
01:07:18,251 --> 01:07:18,959
By the way...
953
01:07:19,126 --> 01:07:21,376
If I have a say of my funeral
954
01:07:21,709 --> 01:07:23,749
Apart from all my great
pals within the music world
955
01:07:24,584 --> 01:07:25,918
What I'd like to hear most
956
01:07:26,876 --> 01:07:29,209
Is the singing of children from Hongkong
957
01:07:30,001 --> 01:07:33,376
As my life started there
in the most wonderful way
958
01:07:34,376 --> 01:07:37,001
It'd also be a perfect
full stop to this life
959
01:07:37,584 --> 01:07:39,793
Thank you, Head Master!
960
01:08:04,043 --> 01:08:05,043
Back to Hongkong
961
01:08:05,209 --> 01:08:06,602
Head Master searched hard under his bed
962
01:08:06,626 --> 01:08:09,084
And rediscovered some cassettes
963
01:08:09,459 --> 01:08:12,043
He played them again and again
964
01:08:12,418 --> 01:08:15,668
Before finally selling them
to the Golden Manager
965
01:08:15,876 --> 01:08:19,668
Head Master was paid a fortune
966
01:08:26,626 --> 01:08:31,251
Good for a couple of months' rent
967
01:08:35,376 --> 01:08:37,168
Soon after our graduation...
968
01:08:37,334 --> 01:08:40,626
The whole building was successfully sold
969
01:08:41,168 --> 01:08:45,668
Springfield Kindergarten
was turned into a luxurious block
970
01:08:51,668 --> 01:08:56,459
Miss Chan married
"treacherous-cheeks"
971
01:08:56,751 --> 01:09:00,918
In my primary school days,
the stock raised 10,000 points
972
01:09:01,126 --> 01:09:03,376
Before dropping 20,000 points
973
01:09:03,584 --> 01:09:06,126
Lately, it's back to 30,000 points
974
01:09:09,168 --> 01:09:11,168
Car, car, car, car your pa!
975
01:09:13,043 --> 01:09:14,668
Right, things change
976
01:09:14,834 --> 01:09:16,084
Things change rapidly
977
01:09:16,293 --> 01:09:18,144
The cassettes Head Master
sold to Golden Manager
978
01:09:18,168 --> 01:09:19,251
Was released worldwide
979
01:09:19,834 --> 01:09:22,334
It became the bestselling
classical CD in history
980
01:09:22,709 --> 01:09:25,043
We pals from those days
chipped in and bought one
981
01:09:25,751 --> 01:09:26,751
We looked and looked
982
01:09:26,876 --> 01:09:28,834
But couldn't find Head Master's name
983
01:09:29,501 --> 01:09:32,084
That's the way the world is!
984
01:09:34,543 --> 01:09:35,709
Which way, exactly?
985
01:09:36,293 --> 01:09:37,435
At times, walking on the street
986
01:09:37,459 --> 01:09:39,001
We'd see Head Master frying chestnut
987
01:09:39,543 --> 01:09:40,959
But after a couple of years
988
01:09:41,126 --> 01:09:42,418
He was seen no more
989
01:09:43,334 --> 01:09:45,626
Some said he had indeed
went home to join his lot
990
01:09:45,876 --> 01:09:47,626
Some said he moved to an outlying island
991
01:09:47,793 --> 01:09:49,543
Running errands for a school
992
01:09:50,043 --> 01:09:51,043
I wouldn't know
993
01:09:51,209 --> 01:09:52,969
As for the fried
chestnut, every so often...
994
01:09:53,043 --> 01:09:54,334
I'd search it out and squeeze it
995
01:09:55,418 --> 01:09:56,501
And then one day
996
01:09:56,876 --> 01:09:58,376
I couldn't find it anymore
997
01:09:58,834 --> 01:10:01,209
That's the way the world is!
998
01:10:25,459 --> 01:10:30,334
"A sun has scattered over the sea,
A wind blows over the eggshell"
999
01:10:30,543 --> 01:10:36,043
"But what is shining in my heart,
Is still the dawn of yesterday"
1000
01:10:36,418 --> 01:10:41,418
"A moon is hanging over my shoulder
The sky desolate, stars hiding"
1001
01:10:41,793 --> 01:10:48,209
"What is singing in my heart,
Is still the youthful song from yesterday"
1002
01:11:00,418 --> 01:11:01,793
This is a colourful world
1003
01:11:02,793 --> 01:11:04,168
This is a shadowy world
1004
01:11:05,251 --> 01:11:06,959
This is a world filled with puffiness
1005
01:11:08,293 --> 01:11:09,668
This is a world built of callus
1006
01:11:11,376 --> 01:11:16,251
"A sun has retreated to the corner,
I scratch my head, doomed in the room"
1007
01:11:16,501 --> 01:11:21,918
"But what is shining in my heart, Is
still the thread of light from yesterday"
1008
01:11:22,334 --> 01:11:27,168
"This is a stormy time, When eggs
throw themselves against the wall"
1009
01:11:27,334 --> 01:11:34,668
"Though what is singing in my heart,
Is still the youthful song from yesterday"
1010
01:11:58,001 --> 01:12:00,834
It's with this setting, we, as grownups
1011
01:12:01,376 --> 01:12:03,251
When we're happy, or sad
1012
01:12:04,043 --> 01:12:05,959
When we're hopeful, or disappointed
1013
01:12:07,001 --> 01:12:08,418
Somewhere inside us
1014
01:12:09,418 --> 01:12:11,126
There's always a song stirring
1015
01:12:11,918 --> 01:12:13,001
Stirring and stirring
1016
01:12:13,584 --> 01:12:16,001
To give us strength when we're weak
1017
01:12:16,793 --> 01:12:19,084
A touch of tenderness when resolute
1018
01:12:43,709 --> 01:12:44,709
It's until then
1019
01:12:45,209 --> 01:12:46,668
That we come to a true appreciation
1020
01:12:46,834 --> 01:12:48,709
Of this silly Head Master from our past
1021
01:12:50,043 --> 01:12:51,168
Who had given us
1022
01:12:51,543 --> 01:12:53,376
The most precious gift in life
1023
01:12:55,626 --> 01:13:01,126
Thank you, Head Master!
1024
01:13:25,584 --> 01:13:33,584
"Riding on the wings of this song,
My love, please come with me"
1025
01:13:37,543 --> 01:13:45,543
"To the shores of the Ganges,
The most beautiful place on earth"
1026
01:13:48,959 --> 01:13:56,959
"Where courtyards bloom with crimson
flowers, Tinted by a peaceful moon"
1027
01:14:00,876 --> 01:14:08,876
"Where a lotus waits in tranquil,
For his beloved maiden"
1028
01:14:12,876 --> 01:14:20,876
"Where violets murmur in delight,
Gazing up a sky of simmering stars"
1029
01:14:31,126 --> 01:14:36,709
"To all the music teachers in the world"
1030
01:14:37,209 --> 01:14:45,209
"Where roses confer in discreet,
Their fragranted fables"
1031
01:14:48,918 --> 01:14:56,918
"Where soft and tender gazelles,
Stay and pay attention"
1032
01:15:01,001 --> 01:15:09,001
"Afar, the sacred river never changes
The holy waves wave forever on"
1033
01:15:13,043 --> 01:15:21,043
"I want to lie with you,
In the shadow of a palm grove"
1034
01:15:24,918 --> 01:15:32,918
"Tasting love, tasting tranquility...
Descending into this sacred dream"
