Josephine.

A CALL FROM FAR AWAY

Josephine.

JOSEPHINE SAW LIGHT UNDER THE BRIDGE

Josephine.

Josephine.

Josephine.

I am an actress.

I am asked to play a role.

Josephine.

Josephine.

I've never taken a good look at you. Josephine.

I have never seen you under the light.

Lies.

You are a woman full of lies.

No, I'm not her.

Josephine.

Josephine.

Josephine...

A woman with no morals.

Lies...

Are you okay?

Shiaofei, apologize to the lady.

I'm sorry.

They've separated, who should I follow?

-Follow the man. -Okay.

Did you get anything?

I have slept with many people.

It seems like I have to sleep with different people

to compensate for the emptiness inside.

I think it's because I panicked.

So I had to keep sleeping with different people.

So that I can feel alive.

And finally,

I even slept with a 16-year-old.

Then somebody wrote a poison pen letter,

saying that I was a woman with no morals.

A woman with no morals.

Do you think Josephine is telling the truth or not?

The truth.

This is the part where she tries everything to get Peter to stay.

For her, this is a painful confession.

Don't look at the script.

Should a painful confession be the truth?

Pei-Shun Chien, you live in a fucking bubble.

Have you ever taken a risk?

Have you ever seduced a man?

-Except for your boyfriend. -Director.

Okay, this is the life you chose.

A love that is faithful unto death.

I admire you.

You don't have these experiences.

How do you think you can play Josephine?

Yi-Chun, swap seats with Pei-Shun.

You read Josephine's part.

Shiao-Hua, you play Peter.

Come on...

Have you ever seduced a man?

-Seduce me... -Go away.

Hi.

-Are you done? -Yes.

-Here. -Thank you.

-Are you tired? -Hi, A-Ze.

Hi.

It looks like Pei-Shun won't be joining us for a night snack.

Sorry.

A love that is faithful unto death.

I'm full of admiration.

Shun.

I can't find the torrent for the download.

But there's a... cri…

Cri... Collection website that sells those DVDs.

What?

Take a look.

It's all in English.

Here.

Criterion Collection.

It's okay.

I'll go find it in the movie library.

Okay.

Homework from that bullying director?

No.

I found those movies.

I wanted to observe

how those classic roles were played in the past.

The director wants me to understand the concept of "not knowing."

But I really don't know how to "not know."

I know.

There is a role that you can play perfectly.

Tell me...

A good mother and wife.

Shun.

Weren't you going for a job interview?

Yes...

You went looking at the jewelry again?

See how it's made you dumb.

That's A Midsummer Night's Dream you're talking about.

If I could wear a piece of their jewelry for just once in my life,

I'll die with no regrets.

Sounds like your life's not worth much.

Any piece of their jewelry is worth millions of New Taiwan dollars.

And my life...

in comparison, doesn't seem to be worth much.

Right, I'll be going.

Take care.

This is my first interview since graduation.

This month...

I have already sent out more than 60 CVs. This is my only interview.

I have already gone to hundreds of interviews.

And I still don't have a job.

Don't lose hope.

Maybe this is it.

And I heard they're a franchise.

And offer at least 25,000 New Taiwan dollars a month.

Hi everyone, we have found someone already.

You may go now.

What does she mean?

It's too ugly!

-I'll do it myself. -No, you promised me.

Fuck.

You silly.

Imagine I'll be back after the rent's been paid 11 times.

Here, sit down.

220,000 New Taiwan dollars!

When did you save all this?

Once I leave service,

let's go to Paris.

I want to go and learn how to make patisserie.

And you can study performing arts.

I want to go to the Louvre.

I want to be like Juliette Binoche, running on the Pont Neuf...

Okay...

But I only saved 220,000 New Taiwan dollars.

We probably can't stay long.

Shun.

Let's work towards our goals.

Dear passengers.

Your bus for Kaosiung at 9:05 a.m.

is boarding at platform two.

Please board the bus as soon as possible.

A-Ze

Next please.

We'll go first.

Okay, see you later.

-Hi. -Hi.

I'll see you there.

Okay.

I know that you're no longer 16,

but I still believed in your words.

I've been a fool.

That's right!

I have slept with many people.

Ever since my husband died.

It's as if sleeping with strangers

is the only way to compensate for the emptiness inside.

I think I panicked.

I needed to make love to different people

to feel safe.

Then somebody wrote a poison pen letter to the principal.

They said that I am

a woman with no morals.

What's Miss Manchurian Wild Rice?

It was a promotional event when I worked part-time at the supermarket.

How much do you expect in salary?

Twenty-two thousand a month.

I'll try and negotiate for you...

Sixteen thousand.

But my rent is already 8,000.

Miss Manchurian Wild Rice...

Failed again?

It's not easy to find a job these days.

Why are you here?

You spent 40,000 on TOEIC classes,

with student loans to pay back,

rent, plus other living costs,

adds up to at least 20,000 a month.

The 220,000 A-Ze left for you

won't last too long.

-Can you still make it to Paris? -How did you...

Just a basic employee background check.

Work for me.

You can practice your acting skills for sure.

The pay will be better than working as a flight attendant.

MAINTENANCE PERIOD: OCT 13

Team A, stand by.

Sorry.

They've separated, who should I follow?

Follow the man.

Did you get anything?

It's been three days, and we have no footage.

Da-Fu, how long do you need?

Find three places to place the mini cams.

Give me 20 minutes.

Don't look at me.

Don't make it look so obvious.

The investigated person likes to buy an Americano before work.

Takes around 10 minutes.

If the lady doesn't want the coffee, I'll take it.

-Thank you. -Shit.

Pei-Shun, delay him five minutes.

Da-Fu, you have five minutes.

He has a dog.

Works out often.

He takes the stairs to work.

Da-Fu!

Excuse me sir, have you seen a chihuahua?

It's small and black.

You've lost your dog?

Da-Fu is my only friend.

I can't live without him.

There's a restaurant in the basement level.

I think he'd follow the smell of food.

You can walk down and turn left.

There's an elevator there, you can...

But sir, I don't know this place.

Can you come with me?

Please, just a while.

What do I do? He wasn't in the basement.

Maybe he ran out onto the street?

Hi mom.

Really?

Okay, I'll be right back.

Thank you, sir.

My mum said Da-Fu went home.

-That's good to hear. -Thank you for your help.

-No problem. -Thank you.

That building was pretty tall.

I can't believe you climbed it.

Pei-Shun Chien.

You've got guts.

You're happy with 30,000?

The next case I have pays 300,000 a month.

The case should take three months.

That guarantees at least one million New Taiwan dollars.

One million!

Are you interested?

Will my life be in danger?

This case needs someone willing to take risks.

My instinct tells me

that person would be you.

A Midsummer Night's Dream.

You know this brand?

Of course.

When I was in high school, I saw their jewelry in a magazine.

It was love at first sight.

Look...

Look at the design, and this piece here.

Do you also know this person?

Their director of design.

Li-Yao.

RHODE ISLAND DESIGN TALENT: LI-YAO

He's the investigated person?

Is it for work or...

proof of adultery?

I want you

to act in his love story.

Make him fall in love with you

and leave the third person. You'll be the fourth person.

But I have a boyfriend.

It's all an act.

Do you really understand Josephine's world?

When she talks to herself

and speaks of the high life she led,

do you know what she's talking about?

But this is like cheating on him.

Then aren't you cheating too when you flirt onstage?

Of course not.

You want to live in your comfort zone. I get it.

But even if you go to Paris to study acting,

you still don't have the guts to really act, right?

-I... -All right.

Go play your role with A-Ze, the good mother and wife.

That's the only role you know.

Why did you join the private detective agency?

For the money, yes.

But here,

you get to witness the unusual side of society.

This is the real reason you joined us.

Go ask yourself.

Come here.

This is your business card, phone and keys.

Give me Pei-Shun Chien's phone and keys.

Don't confuse the two.

You're the special correspondent from iDesign

You studied journalism, specializing in design.

Summer is your pen name.

All other details are here.

You can develop her character and history.

Okay.

Also, tomorrow is the VIP Show for A Midsummer Night's Dream.

Try to catch Li-Yao's attention.

Here's your invitation.

This is your home.

Get to know it well.

Our time is limited.

Welcome.

Hello.

Thank you.

Greetings to the Director and his lady.

Hello.

The investigated person is from Beijing.

He followed his wife, Dan-Li Wang, to Taiwan

to take over the management of the Wang jewelry business.

But is having an affair with a designer in the company.

Come, Associate Director Yu.

Let's take a picture together.

A bit closer.

-Why are there so many people? -Everyone is here.

Can Director Li please explain to us

the design focus for this season?

Today, I am here with my wife to taste the food.

As for the details of the jewelry design,

I'll leave it to this beauty by my side.

I'll answer you later.

I haven't seen you before.

Lydia has some private matters to attend to.

That's why I have a chance to see the show.

Hello, Director.

I'm a reporter from iDesign Magazine.

Thank you.

I'm Summer.

Thank you.

Summer.

I heard Lydia got back together with her husband?

Really? They got divorced?

I'm new in the company, so I don't really know.

Did you memorize all the names and faces of your guests?

They're all old friends.

Then can you remember the names of new friends too?

Judy.

Do you like the food?

I haven't started.

Don't eat this.

Hello, Director.

-Hello, Mrs. Du and Miss Lin. -Hello.

Hello.

This one's worth eating.

They bought a lot of jewelry.

You can go talk to them.

I'll leave you guys to it.

Director Li.

Hello, I am a reporter from iDesign Magazine.

My name is Summer.

May I ask you a few questions?

The jewelry show today...

Excuse me, I need my husband for a moment.

Have you got a conclusion?

What's the core of my design?

Director...

you're afraid of getting hurt.

Li-Yao, Alex is here.

This is Alex.

How many of the guests that came today

were important to you?

Five or six.

You seem more excited today.

You stayed longer than usual.

I met someone.

Doesn't even show her surname.

Young girls these days...

Call and find out.

I'm so tired.

Tired. Let's lie down together.

Here, look to the right.

-Betty. -Here, smile.

Hi.

Director Li.

What a coincidence.

I'm here to to do an interview on the horse show.

But the taxi dropped me off

on that road over there.

I came all this way.

When did Lydia become interested in horses?

She's not interested.

But I'm here to do a special on jockey wear.

I'm going to be late, sorry.

How are you going to run in those shoes?

Up you go, I'll give you a ride.

Have you ridden before?

No.

It's my first time.

Don't worry, Betty is calm.

Till here is enough.

Can you get down?

How?

Hold this.

-What's wrong? -I'm giving this back.

It's for you.

You're not going in?

Betty.

Your article is all done.

Use Summer's computer to publish this,

so it'll be under the correct IP.

I arranged for you to meet by coincidence.

Didn't think that he would

take you riding.

We're making good progress.

He's so rich.

But why is he unhappy?

All the women want him.

Only you

take off in the opposite direction.

Men have an instinct for hunting.

I'm telling you.

He'll come for you.

I think he's very careful.

He's been watching me.

Hi, A-Ze.

Just the usual.

I just finished an interview.

I'm back in the office ready to publish.

Don't be upset.

It'll be over before you know it.

A-Ze, I'm going into the elevator now.

I'll call you later. Okay, bye.

Hello?

Yes, that's me.

Hello, Director.

Hello.

I'll be right there with you.

There's water in the fridge.

Help yourself.

My Life to Live.

Masculine Feminine.

The Eclipse.

You have so many films from The Criterion Collection.

You have taste.

Have you ever seen...

The Nights of Cabiria?

Fellini directed the film.

His wife acted in the film, it's great.

Really?

Pick it up.

Thank you.

Do you have Persona by Bergman?

Hello?

Sorry, I'm in a meeting. Okay, goodbye.

Mortgage from the bank.

For you.

Oh, no. This is expensive.

They're going to start selling the Blu-ray version.

I needed to change it anyway.

-Come with me. -Thank you.

You're the first to come here for a DVD.

Have a lot of people been here before?

No.

Do you need a picture for the interview?

Yes.

Then give me a minute.

These are all original copies of the jewelry designs!

So beautiful.

But this piece...

I haven't seen it on the market?

They said it wasn't big enough, or expensive enough.

Not A Midsummer Night's Dream.

Why aren't you mad?

You're the director.

That's right.

You're afraid of getting hurt.

I'm not afraid.

But this is what you really want to do, right?

That's a shame.

Hi.

How's the interview going?

We're just starting.

I've always thought we could consider developing jewelry

with prices under 100,000.

Not everyone can afford expensive jewelry.

Our market is limited.

Summer, turn to me.

This is Summer Breeze.

Summer, turn your head left and right.

Looks good.

You've already discussed this with Wang.

I'll leave you to it.

Great, let's eat.

Li-Yao, take them off for me.

-I can do it. -Here.

Summer, you're the guest. Try this first.

Thank you.

Give it a try.

This is fresh salmon. Yojisan got it for us today.

Hasn't been refrigerated, the meat is good.

Isn't it good?

You can't get it in restaurants.

Eat more.

You really don't have to come with me.

I can make it back myself.

It's not easy to hail a taxi here.

I'll take you to the metro.

Okay.

Are you interested in shooting some photos for Summer Breeze?

Me?

You're young and pretty.

And most importantly,

you don't have that noble look.

We need a normal girl for Summer Breeze.

You saw how Li-Yao looked at you.

I think he would agree to have you model for us.

Yu-Qian nearly scared the hell out of me.

Do you think she suspects something?

Without a doubt. She did it on purpose.

Then what do I do?

Nothing.

The best way to get close to Li-Yao is to go and model.

You only have one goal.

Let Li-Yao fall for you.

But I feel

that it's all too easy.

It's a bit weird.

So forgetting to turn off your phone

is not exciting enough for you?

It's not that.

I have missed so many calls from A-Ze already.

I don't want him to get suspicious.

Suspicious?

Does Summer know A-Ze?

Miss Bao.

I need to maintain my relationship too!

We pay you 300,000 a month,

and you're still thinking about A-Ze?

Now that Yu-Qian has led you in,

the real game of seduction starts.

Let your instincts guide you.

The only key to this...

is to fall in love with him for real.

I'm sorry.

That's better.

Help her change.

She's shy in every photo.

Let me try.

Music.

Beautiful.

Relax.

Hold the necklace close to your mouth.

Think about the first time you had salmon.

Focus, yes.

That's right.

Here.

Yes.

That's good.

Last time, I discovered

that you have pretty ears.

Thank you.

Give her the earrings.

Come in.

Please wait for us outside.

Okay.

What's wrong?

I don't think I can do this job.

Please find someone else.

Are you giving yourself too much pressure?

You're doing very well.

Wait.

You made it?

I made it for you.

It belongs to you.

When do you get holidays?

Can you come back soon?

Work is really getting to me.

That was careless.

Leaving the necklace on my desk like that.

This is worth at least one million New Taiwan dollars.

I'll give it back.

Why? It's yours.

We kissed.

So what?

You thought it would be platonic?

I have a boyfriend.

A boyfriend.

You're doing great, but then you get scared.

The good girl you always were...

has suddenly discovered

her desire for other men.

It's this side of you that makes you scared.

I'm not scared.

Fine, great work.

Your director was right.

You're fit to be a good mother and wife.

I'm not!

I just...

I just think I'm a bitch.

You just fell in love.

Okay?

Here already?

Come, get in the car.

You don't like it?

Not hungry.

I won't take this pendant back.

I don't think I did anything wrong.

You didn't.

I did.

I can't take this pendant.

You must be thinking,

I have a wife,

and I have Yu-Qian.

Why would I want...

Summer.

You got me.

I'm afraid of getting hurt.

I haven't completed

a real piece in a long time.

I'm afraid.

I'm afraid the things that I make

won't be as perfect as I imagined.

You're real.

Only you dare to challenge me.

It's because of you.

You made me stronger,

so that I could finish this piece.

Nobody has ever given me that.

Never.

Excuse me, I need some air.

Miss Summer.

All your things are in the car.

We can go now.

MOVING COMPANY

Miss Summer, your things are all here.

Yes, thank you.

Are you here?

Mrs. Li.

I've had them change the bed sheets.

See if you like it.

Don't be awkward.

Come with me.

I heard that you study performing arts.

I can give you all the DVDs here.

I've seen them all.

We used to watch so many films here.

After a series of Bergman films,

he would also watch films by Stephen Chiau.

Come, sit.

Thanks for your hard work.

I heard from Bao that you recently graduated.

And that you're in a stable relationship.

He's serving in the military.

I know.

Or else how would you have accepted this job?

Bao can be a little pushy.

He has really fallen for you.

You're doing a great job.

Li-Yao doesn't like to wear condoms.

To be on the safe side,

take the pills.

And just like that, I became the fourth person.

Li-Yao is a gentle being.

It's not hard to pretend to love him.

But he never lets me know when he leaves for work.

Never picks up the phone.

You have reached the voicemail.

Recording will start after the tone.

Please hang up if not leaving a message.

Press the pound key for immediate recording.

You have reached the voicemail.

Recording will start after the tone.

You have reached the voicemail.

Recording will start after the tone.

Should I act that I care?

Or that I don't care?

I don't know.

You have one new voice message.

Shun, I arrive today at noon.

Come meet me at Taipei Main Station.

Bye.

KUO-KUANG MOTOR TRANSPORT

Shun.

Hello, how are you? We'd like to go to...

Turn right over there, to Yun-Nian building.

Thank you.

We're not going home?

Not yet.

We have seven hours left.

I made a restaurant reservation.

I'm going to take you to a nice French restaurant.

Doesn't that cost a fortune?

Yes.

I've won the lottery.

Really?

I just want to treat you well, silly.

But weren't we supposed to save money?

We've been frugal.

Since we started dating,

we've only had that one meal that cost over 1,000 New Taiwan dollars

for your birthday last year.

We can splurge every once in a while.

-Here you go. -Thank you.

Excuse me,

where is the lunch special?

-The last page. -Okay.

-There are only two choices? -Yes.

Shun, how about we take one each.

We can share.

-Okay. -Okay.

We'll have one of each.

Yes.

Would you like water?

Wait.

-No. -Okay.

Thank you.

You have to pay for water.

One hundred twenty a glass.

You know what?

Since I enrolled in the military,

I really think the military service

has nothing to do with national defense.

Nothing at all.

You know what I do every day?

I sweep dead leaves, move rocks and polish tanks.

I'm coming...

I'm going to take a shower.

You're back?

Come here.

Have you been busy?

I thought I'd see you when I got back.

So I have to be here 24/7?

I'm not your dog.

What's wrong?

Why are you so upset?

Let me go!

So what are we going to do now?

Fuck?

Am I your mistress,

-or your whore? -What's wrong?

Let go!

My bad.

No, it's my bad.

I don't feel good.

Not good at all.

I'm flying to Milan next week.

They are very interested

in Summer Breeze.

Take a look at the guest list

for the press conference.

Also...

be careful of the paparazzi.

Today a reporter called me to ask

if you were screwing young models.

Which agency was the reporter from?

Name?

You really think I wouldn't care?

When you're having fun with Summer,

I am working my ass off for you!

How can you do this to me?

I've been with you all these years,

never asking for anything.

I've given you more than enough.

Qian.

Let us part in peace.

You have worked hard for Summer Breeze.

Take it with you.

It's about time you created your own brand.

Take care.

Li-Yao broke up with Yu-Qian.

He also gave her Summer Breeze.

We estimated three months.

But it only took you one and a half to get Li-Yao sorted.

You're good.

What now?

What's the plan?

Disappear.

Don't let him find you.

This is the end of the show.

Time to get off the stage.

You fell in love with the love game.

Don't believe that it's true.

Remember who you are.

Do you want to waste your time with no future in sight?

Emerald.

Too pricey.

We need to differentiate ourselves.

Or do you want clients who like Summer Breeze?

Young couples and office workers.

If we insist on using emerald,

the costs will be high for the company.

Director, what do you think?

Director.

In this meeting today,

we have to decide on materials for the next season.

Our purchase department has a schedule to follow.

I will be handing in the designs in a week.

Before I finish doing that...

please don't bother me with things like this.

I wanted to give you a surprise.

But you came back early.

Try it.

Is it good? Have I lost my touch?

It's good.

Shun.

Ever since you started working at the agency,

you've become so different.

I almost forgot. You know what?

I met a weird senior in the army.

He's addicted to films.

He has the whole collection of files from Criterion Collection.

Remember how we couldn't find the torrent before?

I've copied everything for you.

If you'd like to see other films,

just give me the list.

But this New Year's Eve...

I won't be able to spend it with you.

A-Ze, I need to talk to you.

Wait.

New phone?

You're not going to pick it up?

Li-Yao.

Li-Yao.

Li-Yao.

Li-Yao...

Who is he?

I'm sorry.

Did you sleep with him?

Did you sleep with him?

To get discharged.

To go abroad.

I had it all planned out.

But I didn't plan the cheating part.

How did you meet?

How did you meet?

We met at work.

Right.

Because we need to save.

So we have to work.

Because of work...

A-Ze.

Surprise!

Three minutes and five seconds left

till your birthday.

Next week is our open audition for the play.

I think you have a good chance of getting the role.

Pei-Shun is looking more and more like Josephine.

A woman with no morals.

A woman with no morals!

What's wrong with you?

Are you Summer?

Who are you?

Josephine

Who are you?

I've never taken a good look at you.

Why are you doing this?

What's wrong?

Summer, it's me.

It's me.

Did you have a nightmare?

Don't worry, I'm here.

I'm here for you.

Don't be afraid.

Why do you never ask about me?

Ask you what?

For example,

where my family lives.

Which school I used to go to.

You'll talk

when you want to talk.

Right?

Actually,

I'm not a magazine reporter.

I already knew.

I knew it the first time we met

at the show.

Because reporters don't ask those kinds of questions.

Then why did you still talk to me?

Your actions may have been misleading.

But your heart was true.

I don't care.

I only care

when you tell me these things.

Seems like today's the day.

My name is Pei-Shun Chien.

I'm 23.

Recently graduated.

I act in a theatrical group.

I really liked A Midsummer Night's Dream.

So I asked Summer

to let me go instead of her

to the jewelry show.

So that I could see the jewelry up close.

Then I saw you.

I'm sorry.

In the name of God, I forgive your sins.

Okay, let's sleep now.

I mean, I've never taken a good look at you.

Josephine, let me turn on the light.

Light?

Which light?

This light with a lampshade.

Why are you doing this?

So that I can see you properly.

Why are you doing this?

Everyone relax.

Relax.

Pei-Shun Chien.

It's like you're possessed by Josephine.

What happened?

Did you get dumped?

What are you watching?

I got the leading role!

Celebrate with me.

Do you want to go to Paris?

Yes.

Then I'll call the company.

Let's go tomorrow.

Wait.

What's wrong?

What happened?

I want to go to Paris.

Go to Paris?

But what about your job?

Now that it's at its lowest point,

it can only go upwards.

Do you understand?

Now, just worry about

what shows you'd like to see in Paris.

But I just told you,

I got the role of the leading actress.

They'll start rehearsing soon.

Can't we go to Paris first for a couple of days?

No.

The rehearsal starts soon.

Don't be like this, I know you can do it.

You made that pendant

in such a short time.

You know what?

It gave me a lot of strength.

You're in love with Li-Yao.

That's right.

You're so young.

And yet I have led you into this complicated world.

So much sacrifice.

I didn't sacrifice anything.

Where's your boyfriend?

Does he know about this?

We broke up.

And yet you said no sacrifice.

Nothing was done against my will.

You don't know what that means.

The fourth person

becomes the third person.

Then what?

I won't want him to get divorced.

I just want to be with him.

Divorce?

What are you talking about?

We're in the same boat.

He will always be my husband.

I will never leave him.

But do you love him?

I love him.

And more than you love him.

Because I love even his defects.

You're no competition.

I wasn't thinking that much.

I just want to be with him.

When I'm with him, I can be myself.

Who do you think you are?

Summer?

Pei-Shun Chien?

Or whatever role you're playing?

That's my brother-in-law. You really believe that guy?

What else did he tell you?

That's right.

That's right...

What's wrong, am I too loud?

I think these are pretty good.

They have potential.

You don't get it.

It's rubbish.

Yu-Qian would know.

Right, I don't get it.

But the deadline is close.

We must give them something.

Then think about how to improve it.

Now everyone is waiting

to see what I come up with.

How can I hand in things like this?

Why not?

Let's have a look, there must be something we can use.

Can you stop drinking?

Are you telling me when I can drink?

This is for your own good.

Mind your own business, megastar.

Long time no see.

Congratulations.

Your new store will be opening.

Excuse me.

You can't reap without sowing.

Come.

How are things with you and Li-Yao?

I'm a bit busy.

I have to go.

Summer.

I owe you one.

I'd been planning to leave Li-Yao and start my own brand for a while.

So when the time came,

I created an opportunity for you two,

so he could break up with me.

He is a kind person.

I knew that he would

give me what I wanted the most to compensate me.

Do you love him?

For me,

that's not a question of yes or no.

You handed over Summer Breeze to Yu-Qian.

For us, it was a great loss.

The board wants you to take responsibility.

Okay.

How?

Dad wants to see us.

Come with me to Belize.

I see you already have a solution.

I'm busy lately.

Don't have the time.

Just go and talk to him.

Go diving with him.

Tell him about your dreams.

He loves you.

Li-Yao, the company needs some circulating capital.

You've gotten to the point.

Dan-Li.

Can we stop playing the couple in love?

Aren't you tired?

But what I feel for you is real.

I have to tell you something.

I bought Summer.

She was a tool to separate you and Yu-Qian.

It's not true love.

Impossible.

Her name is Pi-Shun Chien.

Recently graduated.

Has a boyfriend in the army.

She told me everything.

She's not a reporter.

She's an actress in theater.

She is a good actress.

That's why you like to see her act.

See for yourself.

Ladies and gentlemen, the show is about to start.

Please take out your phones,

and put them on silent mode.

Thank you.

I have never seen you under the light.

This is a fact.

Really?

I have never seen you in the afternoon.

Whose fault is that?

That's because you never go out in the afternoon.

Peter.

That's because you work in the afternoon.

But I don't work on Sunday mornings.

You always have an excuse when I ask you out in the mornings.

I'm a reporter from iDesign Magazine.

I'm Summer.

You always have to wait till after 6:00 p.m. to go out.

Even when we do go out,

you always like to go to dark places.

What are you saying? I don't understand.

Meaning I've never taken a good look at you, Josephine.

Let me turn on this light.

Light?

Which light?

This light with a lampshade.

Why are you doing this?

So that I can see you properly.

Why are you doing this?

What's wrong?

You acted as if you were old-fashioned in front of me.

The whole summer.

The whole summer you made up those lies...

I really liked A Midsummer Night's Dream.

So I asked Summer

to let me go instead of her

to the jewelry show.

I didn't expect to see you.

-Lies. -Stop saying that I lied to you!

Lies.

Lies.

Lies.

You are a woman full of lies.

My actions may be misleading.

But my heart is true.

You're home early.

Wasn't there an after-play party?

You put in all that hard work.

Thank you, Director Li.

Why are you doing this?

I'm just buying women.

But I'm paying for it this time.

I don't need someone else to do it for me.

I admit that...

Initially, I got close to you so that I could make money.

But now, I really...

-really... -I can give you money if you want!

I love you!

I really...

I really love you.

My actions may be misleading.

But my heart is true.

Your heart is true?

You will never lie.

I memorized the lines.

What's the next line?

I think it was...

Lies...

You are a woman full of lies!

I didn't lie to you.

Congratulations.

You win.

You know, I would really...

like to go over and hug you now.

And kiss you.

But I'm afraid.

I need to...

calm down.

Think things over.

I need some fresh air.

LET US BE THAT LOVING COUPLE AGAIN DAN-LI

You're here for me?

I got discharged.

I bought tickets for Paris next month.

Then I'll look forward to your return.

And you'll open a great cake shop.

You...

want to come with me?

Why?

That Paris is yours.

Not mine.

Shun.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

AUDITION: PHANTOMS OF PARIS

THE MAGIC OF SILENCE THE WOMAN IS MINE

I've also acted in the Theater of the Absurd.

I was playing a woman with no morals.

Were my painful struggles

as absurd as them?

Let there be laughter, let there be pain.

It doesn't matter.

My name is...

Josephine.
