Dao Ming Si, Michelle & Sha Ge are working in the grape field. Two black Mercedes show up at the field. Dao Ming Feng gets out of the car with a bunch of guys dressed in black suits (bodyguards). Michelle sees the body guards walking toward them.
Michelle (walking up to the body guards): Do you have business here?
One of the body guards reaches out and grabs Michelle by her arms.
Sha Ge (seeing them, runs over to help Michelle): Hey, you guys watch what you are doing. What do you want?
Two more body guards walk over and grab Sha Ge.
Dao Ming Si (seeing all the commotion, shouts): Let them go!
Dao Ming Feng snaps her fingers and the guards let Michelle and Sha Ge go.
Dao Ming Feng: You made me
so worry. Go home with me.
Michelle: Who are you? Why does he have to leave with you?
One of the bodyguards hands her a big file which has Dao Ming Sis profile
in it.
Michelle (reading out loud): David Dao Ming. American citizen. You are
his
(Michelle looks over to Dao Ming Si) Shes your mom. Do you not
recognize her?
Dao Ming Feng (turns her head to look at Michelle and Sha Ge): Thank you
for taking care of Dao
David. (turns back to Dao Ming Si) David, lets
go.
Dao Ming Si: I dont want to.
Dao Ming Feng: You
You are too self-willed. Look at the way you
are torturing yourself now. Go back with me to New York to get help.
Dao Ming Si: Go back to New York? Am I not from Taiwan?
Dao Ming Feng: When you get your memory back, then well talk about
Taiwan. Ive planned everything already.
Dao Ming Si: Why do I have to listen to your plans?
Dao Ming Feng: Because Im your mother.
Michelle (speaking to Dao Ming Si): Ah Sing, even though she doesnt
have any manners, but she still is your mom. And also your only clue now. Didnt
you have to look for yourself? Then you must go with her. I believe that everything
she has planned will help you to get your memory back. It would definitely be
good for you.
Dao Ming Feng turns her head and the body guards push through Sha Ge and Michelle. Dao Ming Si sees them coming at him and he turns around and started running. The bodyguards start to run after him but Michelle yelled after them.
Michelle: You would scare him like this!
Michelle (turns to Dao Ming Feng): Hes feeling very insecure now. The more force you use, the farther he will run. Let me go talk to him. Dao Ming Feng nods her head. Michelle runs after Dao Ming Si and talks to him.
Michelle (walking up to Dao Ming Si): Told you, you would soon find yourself. Congratulations Ah Sing. Oh, sorry, its David."
Dao Ming Si: They said my name is David so I should be called David? They said I have to go back to New York so I should go back to New York?
Michelle: I know this feeling is not very good but Do you need me to help you do anything? If you dont want to leave with your mom yet, I can
Dao Ming Si: I still have to go back, even though I feel very unfamiliar and I feel very uncomfortable.
Michelle: She really doesnt seem very nice. But, being by your mothers side should be the safest. At least she wont kill her own son. She will definitely help you find yourself. (taking a pad of paper and a pen out of her pocket) When you find yourself, remember to call me and let me know. (she writes her phone number on the piece of paper and hands it to Dao Ming Si) Go. God and Lung San Si (the place where the lucky charm was bought by San Cais mom) will protect you. (Dao Ming Si turns to look at Michelle.) Hurry up and go. You will find out who you are very soon.
Dao Ming Si looks at her for a few more seconds, then turns to walk away. But he turned back and handed his lucky charm to Michelle.
Dao Ming Si (handing her the charm): For you. (Michelle takes it from him.) Even though I dont know if I should hate you or thank you, but
Michelle: I understand.
Sha Ge and Michelle walk Dao Ming Si out to the car where Dao Ming Feng is waiting.
Sha Ge: When you have time, you have to come back and visit us.
Dao Ming Si walks over to the car.
Michelle (calling out to him): Ah Sing! Remember our star!
Dao Ming Si nods his head and then gets in the car.
In a hotel room, Dao Ming Si is standing there with two maids handing him a suit to wear. Dao Ming Feng is staring out the hotel window.
Dao Ming Feng: There are a lot of things that after you have gone for therapy help, that you would slowly start to remember. But mommy want to remind you of some important things. 1) From now on dont associate with low class people again. 2) From now on, Ill make all the rules. You just need to follow them. 3) Until you have your memory back, for your own safety, I will have bodyguards guarding you. From now on, it doesnt matter where you go, if there are no bodyguards with you, then dont go out by yourself. 4) The business in New York, I want to hand over to you to look after. So, after we get back to New York, you must immediately go to work.
Dao Ming Si: This is what you called planning everything for me?
Dao Ming Feng (turning from the window to look at Dao Ming Si): Of course.
Dao Ming Si: Then I have a couple of questions that I want to ask you.
Dao Ming Feng: Lets eat dinner first. If there are questions, well talk about them later.
At the dinner table, Dao Ming Feng is sitting at one end and Dao Ming Si sitting at the other end. Music is playing in the background. Two maids are standing nearby ready to be of service if their help is needed.
Dao Ming Si (feeling very uncomfortable): I want to ask Do we eat dinner like this in the past?
Dao Ming Feng: Is there not enough food? Whatever you want to eat, just order.
Dao Ming Si: Im saying
We dont talk during dinner?
Dao Ming Feng (putting down her wine glass): Talk? Whats there to
talk about during dinner? (Dao Ming Si puts down his fork.) Youre done?
Dao Ming Si: I want to know my Chinese name.
Dao Ming Feng: Ive said this already, your name is David.
Dao Ming Si: Im a Taiwanese. So I should have a Taiwan name.
Dao Ming Feng: You dont need to know.
Dao Ming Si: Why?
Dao Ming Feng: I said you dont need to, then you dont need to. Because you wont be returning to Taiwan any time soon.
Dao Ming Si: Then do I have
any sisters or brothers?
Dao Ming Feng: Your older sister is in NY.
Dao Ming Si: My father?
Dao Ming Feng (pauses lightly): NY.
Dao Ming Si (firing his questions away very fast): When did I graduate?
What was I studying? Why am I in Spain?
His mom wont answer him.
Dao Ming Feng (speaking to one of the maids in English): Mr. Dao Ming
has finished his dinner. Take him to his room.
Maid: Yes Madam. Please Sir.
Dao Ming Si (standing up): I dont want to rest. I want answers.
Why wont you answer me? Why?
Maid: Sir?
Dao Ming Feng (standing up): I just dont wish you to rush things.
If you are in a rush to know things and cant absorb them all at once,
the doctor said that it would have a negative effect on your recovery. Do you
understand? Listen to mommys words.
Dao Ming Si puts his napkin down,
walks away from the table and to his room. Later that night, in his room, Dao
Ming Si is standing by the window and staring out to the night scenery. He takes
out Michelles note with her telephone number on it. Dao Ming Si picks
up the phone to dial Michelles number and hears his mom talking to someone
on the line.
Dao Ming Feng: We are going back New York tomorrow. Is everything taken
care of?
Assistant (on the other end of the line): Everything is taken care of
as Madam has ordered. The masters things are all taken care of too.
Dao Ming Feng: Are you sure that everything is covered up?
Assistant: Yes.
Dao Ming Feng: Very good. Remember to tell everybody that once Master
is back that they have to work diligently on the plan to change him. No matter
what questions he asks, just say dont know. And whoever calls to look
for him, make sure to block those calls them.
Assistant: Yes.
Dao Ming Feng: Remember. Its ANYONE.
Assistant: Yes.
Dao Ming Si hears the whole conversation and is shocked and scared. He tries
to open his door to run away, but he finds it locked and he cant get out.
There are also two bodyguards standing outside his room.
Next morning, Dao Ming Si & his mom are in a car to the airport.
Dao Ming Si: May I take a look at my passport?
Dao Ming Feng takes it out and hands it to him. He takes it from her and then puts it away. While the cars stop for a red light, Dao Ming Si opens the door and runs away. The guards run after him. He loses them and runs back to the winery to find Michelle.
At the winery, Michelle was painting a picture of Dao Ming Sis back while Sha Ge is working on the fields.
Sha Ge (looking over at Michelle): You dont seem to be in a good mood.
Michelle: Who says? You just keep busy with your things.
Sha Ge: Ok, ok. Ill do my own things.
After a couple of seconds, he looks over at Michelles direction again and sees Dao Ming Si standing in back of Michelle.
Sha Ge: Ah Sing wearing a suit is very handsome.
Michelle: Are you crazy? When did you ever see him wearing a suit?
Sha Ge: Now.
Michelle: Now?
She turns around and sees Dao Ming Si.
Michelle (happy): Ah Sing! (running over to him) Why did you come back?
Dao Ming Si: I dont know.
Michelle: You dont know? Werent you going back to New York with your mom?
Dao Ming Si: I cant leave with that person to New York. I will only trust what I can remember now.
Michelle: That person? Are you referring to your mom? Whats wrong with her?
Dao Ming Si: She locked me up and said that she will change me to another person.
Michelle: How can this be?
Dao Ming Si: I dont even know. I just know that if I want to know who I am, it should be that I discover it on my own. And not let other people tell me who I am or what to do. So I ran away.
Sha Ge (walking over): Thats
good. I knew that they wouldnt be good people. But it doesnt matter.
Im here. So even if they chase after you, they cant do anything
to you.
Michelle: But shes your mom.
Dao Ming Si: Why would a mom want to change her son?
Sha Ge: Thats right.
Michelle: Then what are you
planning to do now?
Dao Ming Si: I want to go to Taipei. Maybe if I return to Taipei, I would
remember everything.
Sha Ge (talking to Michelle): Hey, but he is like this now, if he goes by himself, is that ok?
Michelle: Sha Ge! (turning to Dao Ming Si) Ill go back with you.
Sha Ge: Ya Sha!
Michelle: Because its my responsibility. I am responsible to help Ah Sing find himself.
San Cai is standing outside the balcony in the hotel room. She lets go of the balloons that DSM gave her. The balloons were given to her back in Episode 1 to represent Dao Ming Sis happiness. When he gave her the balloons, he said Im giving my happiness to you. By letting the balloons go, it shows that shes going to stick to her promise and not see Dao Ming Si anymore. Mei Zuo comes out to the balcony.
Mei Zuo: San Cai. We have to leave for the airport.
San Cai wipes her tears and walks back into the room after Mei Zuo. She stood in the bedroom for a few minutes remembering the time she and Dao Ming Si shared there.
At the airport, Michelle & Dao Ming Si are wearing hats to disguise themselves, in case the bodyguards find them. They walk up to the counter to buy tickets. The lady at the counter was taking a long time with asking questions and stuff. Suddenly Dao Ming Si blurts out for her to hurry up in Spanish. Michelle looks up in surprise and asks, You know Spanish? Dao Ming Si looks back at her and said, Is what I said Spanish?
F3, San Cai & Jing arrive at the airport. Jing is hugging San Cai and they are saying their goodbyes outside the airport.
Jing: San Cai, I believe no matter where Ah Si is, he wont give up.
San Cai: Ive thought everything over already. If I dont give up first, then who knows how much bitterness this stupid fool will have to take for me. So this time, I really lost. Im leaving now, Xue Jia. (looking over to Lei and back to Jing) Wish you happiness.
San Cai, Mei Zuo and Xi Men walks through the entrance, leaving Jing and Lei along.
Lei: Take care.
Jing: You too.
Dao Ming Si & Michelle are sitting in the chairs by the waiting place. They have their back to San Cai & F3 so they didnt see each other. San Cai and F3 is walking toward the waiting place when Xi Mens cell phone rang it was from Dao Ming Sis sister.
Xi Men: Da Jie, you still havent found Ah Si? Okay, then Ah Si is really not in New York now? Ok, ok, thanks. (turning to the others) Hey, Ah Sis not in New York.
MZ: Then where is Ah Si now? What should we do?
San Cai suddenly remembers Dao Ming Sis words. She remembers that he said that if she ever gets lost or they get separated, if she stays in one place, he will find her.
San Cai: I cant leave. He said I have to stay in one place to wait for him. He said that. How can I forget it? I cant leave Barcelona!
San Cai turns around to leave the waiting place and F3 follows. At the same time Michelle & Dao Ming Si gets up from the chair to board the plane. They did not see each other. They would have been on the same plane back to Taiwan if San Cai did not decide to stay at the last minute.
In Taiwan, Michelle & Dao Ming Si finally arrives.
Michelle: So this is Taiwan. (turning to Dao Ming Si and speaking in Spanish) This is my first time here.
Dao Ming Si: But I want to go back to Barcelona.
Michelle: Mister. It wasnt easy getting here to Taiwan and now you say you want to go back to Barcelona? Are you trying to make taking flights into a habit?
Dao Ming Si (looking around): Here I dont have any feelings. Why not go back to Barcelona?
Michelle: Who was the one that said if he wants to find out about himself, he have to go discover it on his own? Actually, I feel the same way you do. I feel that Taipei is very unfamiliar thats why I am so excited. Why dont you be like me? Pretend its a place for a vacation and get to know Taipei all over again. Pretend that this is your first time here. First forget that you forgot. Who knows, it could be that your memories will come and find you. Have you figured it out yet? Then do what I do. Just follow me. Ok? First close your eyes, raise your head up, open up your arms and lets feel Taipei. (pause) Do you feel it? A bit humid. The air is thick. The cars are rushing.
Dao Ming Si (opening his eyes and looking around at the sky): Didnt you say that the stars can show you the way? (raising his head up again) Taipei doesnt have any stars.
Michelle (opens her eyes): No star?
Dao Ming Si: Look.
Michelle (looking up): Really. Theres not even Brave Ya Sha.
Dao Ming Si: I said to go back to Barcelona.
Michelle: What are you getting mad for? How can there be no stars? Fixed star means that the stars are forever up in the sky. You cant see it maybe because its cloudy or maybe because of the brightness. You have to have patience to wait for it. You have to wait until the clouds above your head clear away, wait until the brightness disappears, then the stars will come out. Ah Sing, will then find the road to the way home.
Dao Ming Si: Are you trying to fool a kid?
Michelle: Dont look down upon me. One of these days, my words will be published in a book Philosopher Ya Shas Famous Words and the best thing about being a civilized culture is the fact that there are lots of resources. No stars, have a map. (takes out a map from her bag) Ta da. Also a call for help phone number from Sha Ge.
Mrs. Hui, Sha Ges relative is showing Michelle and Dao Ming Si to the apartment.
Mrs. Hui: Our Ah Sha called me and told me that he has friends coming here to live. So I kind of cleaned up the place a little. But old rooms, no matter how you clean it, it still doesnt look clean.
Michelle: No, theres even a yard here. The feelings not bad.
Mrs. Hui (opening the door): Come,
come. Its here. Sofa. Bed. Well? Is it ok?
Michelle: Very good. Thank you Auntie.
Mrs. Hui: Ok. Then you guys rest early. My home is just nearby here. If you need anything, just give me a call. Ok?
Michelle: Ok. Goodnight.
Michelle walks Mrs. Hui toward the door while Dao Ming Si is looking around the room.
Mrs. Hui (pulling Michelle aside): I heard that its like the shows on television that he lost his memories."
Michelle: Uh, yes, because of a car accident.
Mrs. Hui: Oh, well, rest early.
Michelle: Ok, Bye, bye. (running back over to Dao Ming Si) Well, not bad right?
Dao Ming Si: Theres a strange smell.
Michelle: This is a good deed from Sha Ge and youre still complaining. (looking over at the bed) Ah, theres only one bed. (runs over to lie down) The beds mine because Im a girl. And anyway, this is your hometown. Youre the host and Im the guest. So the host should take care of the guest. And the bed is so small, you wouldnt be comfortable on it. And
Dao Ming Si (looking around): What are you saying all this for? I didnt say I was going to fight over it with you.
Dao Ming Si looks over at Michelle and found her asleep already.
In the morning, Michelle is drawing a map of Taipei on the wall and Dao Ming Si wakes up (sleeping on couch, while Michelle sleeps on the bed.)
Michelle (seeing Dao Ming Si waking): Good morning.
Dao Ming Si (walking over to the map): What are you doing?
Michelle: Im thinking. Lung San Si. (taking out the lucky charm) The lucky charm from Lung San Si. This is our first clue. Today we have to go to Lung San Si. The second clue, this person that said she was your mom. Looks like she has a lot of money. Her expressions werent too good though. A bunch of guys wearing black suits. What else is there? (paused) Right, the third clue, she said that your name is David Dao Ming. Usually the name David is given to spoil children who is an only son.
Dao Ming Si: Who said that?
Michelle: I said it. This is words experienced from all my travels around the world. (paused) Hm, the fourth clue, is that you can speak Spanish. How did you know how to speak Spanish?
Dao Ming Si gave her a look that said if I knew the answer to that question, would I be here now?
Michelle: Why are you looking like that? Its just a question. Maybe its because you lived in Spain for a long time. Or you were studying Spanish. Or you have a Spanish girlfriend. But then again, the girls in Spain couldnt possibly like you.
Dao Ming Si: What does that mean?
Michelle: You, this pure little guy, spent a whole night alone with a girl and nothing happened. They wouldnt be interested in you.
Dao Ming Si: What little guy? I am a gentleman ok?
Michelle (smiling): Definitely a little guy. Because only a little guy would try to say that hes not a little guy. And his face would turn red.
Dao Ming Si (embarrassed): I didnt. (turns around to look at the map on the wall) You drew Taipei so ugly.
Michelle: So the Taipei that you know, in memories is very beautiful, right? Or it could be that you have had a beautiful memory here.
Dao Ming Si: Lets hope thats the case.
Michelle: So we should be a little more enthusiastic and help you find this beautiful memory. Hurry up and think. What other clues do we have?
Dao Ming Si suddenly reaches in his pocket and takes out the meteor star ring.
Dao Ming Si (holding the ring up): This.
Michelle: So you had it all along. I thought it was left behind at the hospital. This ring can be a very important clue. Because when you woke up and saw it, you got very violent. Do you remember? And you almost killed me.
Dao Ming Si (he face is scrunched up with all his thinking): At that time I had a very weird feeling toward this ring. But now, it seems like I dont have it anymore.
Michelle: Let me think. This is a girls ring. The owners hands is very small. Should be a girl thats vain. Who is she to you? Its definitely not your mom. She wouldnt wear these rings.
Dao Ming Si: I heard that I have an older sister in New York.
Michelle: Then it cant be her. How can you bring your sisters ring traveling? (remembering something) Oh, when you woke up. You kept on repeating that place, that place. What place?
Dao Ming Si (thinking really hard): That place? (gets angry and throws the ring aside) Can't think of it.
Michelle: Dont rush. Slowly.
Dao Ming Si (holding onto his head): I dont know what place. What place? Why? Head hurts.
Back in Spain, San Cai is praying in the Church that Dao Ming Si told her to go to.
San Cai (thinking): Do you feel it Dao Ming Si? This time I listened to you. Im not going anywhere. Im just going to stay in one place and wait for you. Do you feel it?
The door behind San Cai opens, she
slowly turns her head, with hope on her face, hoping that it was Dao Ming Si.
But it was only Lei. San Cai smiles lightly at him.
Lei: If you dont want to smile, then dont make yourself.
San Cai: Really? Am I making
myself? Im ok.
Mei Zuo & Xi Men show up behind Lei.
Mei Zuo: San Cai.
Xi Men: Im leaving with Mei Zuo.
San Cai (standing up): You guys are going back to Taiwan?
Mei Zuo: Were going to New York first, then back to Taiwan. Ah Sis mom knows that Ah Si is missing in Barcelona but she hasnt made any move yet. We are a little worried.
Xi Men: So we decided to split up. You and Lei continue to stay here and wait from more information. I and Mei Zuo is going back to Taiwan to take a look at the situation there. If there is any news, we will get in contact with you immediately.
Mei Zuo: San Cai. You have to take care of yourself. Dont make us worry about you.
San Cai: I will. Xi Men, Mei Zuo, thank you for taking care of me. Dont worry. From now on, I will take out my weed power and will not be crazy again.
Xi Men: Thats the San Cai I know.
Mei Zuo: Theres a saying that a friends girl is off limits, but I really want to hug you.
Mei Zuo & Xi Men both give her a hug. Lei stands away and Xi Men pulled Lei over and they have a group hug.
At the Taiwan temple, Michelle & Dao Ming Si is trying to look for more clues.
Michelle (running up to a lady):
Excuse me. I want to ask, (she takes out the lucky charm) this Lung San
Si, is it here?
Lady: Yes, it is here. This has been a very famous place for a long time.
Dao Ming Si looks around trying to remember stuff. Finally they leave after looking around a bit.
Michelle: This place is just too famous. Even if you did come here, no one would remember. But you dont have to worry, we have other clues.
Dao Ming Si: Really? A ring that doesnt belong to me. A place without a name. Besides here, what else is there to prove who I am?
Dao Ming Si walks away dejected and Michelle follows.
Back at the apartment that night, they are both getting ready to sleep. Michelle suddenly calls out.
Michelle: Ah Sing. (no answer) Are you asleep? (Dao Ming Si doesnt answer, so she thinks that hes asleep.) Its good that you are asleep. Some things are easy to say when you are asleep. I just want to say that Im sorry to you. Im really very sorry. (I guess shes trying to apologize for the car accident.) Sorry. Very sorry.
Dao Ming Si was awake the whole time and heard everything that she said.
Dao Ming Feng finds out from her assistant that Ah Si has left Spain for Taiwan.
Assistant: Madam, according to the records in customs, we have confirmed that the young master has arrived in Taiwan.
Dao Ming Feng: Confirm a flight to Taiwan.
Assistant: Yes.
In the morning, Michelle gave Dao Ming Si a lucky charm that she got for him at the temple yesterday.
Michelle (holding out lucky charm): I got this for you yesterday. I think this is really very lucky, because it was able to protect you from such a serious accident. You gave yours to me, so I helped you get one. To protect you to go home safely.
Dao Ming Si doesnt answer but is sitting on a chair trying to tie his shoelaces. Hes trying to tied his shoelaces and finds out that he doesnt know how.
Michelle (kneeling down next to him): Whats wrong?
Dao Ming Si: I cant remember how to tie shoelaces.
Dao Ming Si suddenly gets up and throws a temper.
Dao Ming Si (kicking the bed): How can I forget even this?! Why?
Michelle (grabbing him by the arms): Ah Sing.
Dao Ming Si (shouting): WHY?!
Michelle: Ah Sing.
Dao Ming Si (grabs Michelle by the shoulders and started shaking her): Can you please tell me whats going on? Why cant I remember anything? Tell me. WHY? WHY? Tell me. WHY?!?!
Then Dao Ming Si pushes her onto the bed and runs out of the house. Michelle runs after him but loses him.
Summary of MG2 Episode 5:
Michelle comes home at night after searching for Dao Ming Si all day and finds a burglar inside the house. She sees the thief picking up the meteor ring and she yells out, You cant take the ring! She rushes into the room, the thief pulls out a knife and they struggle briefly with Michelle, yelling, You can take anything but the ring! Thats Ah Sings ring and I say you cant take it! The burglar pushes her away and bolts out the door. Michelle gets up and runs after him. She catches with him outside the stairs and continue to struggle with him. At this time, Dao Ming Si shows up and sees their struggling and goes to help Michelle. While Dao Ming Si is fighting with the burglar, Michelle is close to falling over the balcony on top of the stairs. Dao Ming Si sees her falling and goes over to help her, giving the thief a chance to run away. Dao Ming Si couldnt pull Michelle up straight so they both fell off the balcony onto the garbage bags below.
Dao Ming Si (groaning in pain): What
are you doing?
Michelle (gets up, brushing the dirt away): Trying to catch a thief!
Dao Ming Si: Trying to catch a thief, so you dont care about your
life, is that it?
Michelle: If its not because hes trying to steal your ring
(she sudden remembers the thief) Your ring! (She turns to run after the
thief.)
Dao Ming Si (gets up from the floor): Forget it already. Hes long
gone. You think hes going to wait around for you to catch him?
Michelle (turning back): But the ring is so important to you.
Dao Ming Si: Forget it. Dont do stupid things like this again. OK?
Michelle: Im doing this for you and youre scolding me?
Dao Ming Si stands with his back turned to her. Suddenly he turns around facing
her and says, To me, a ring without memories is nothing compared to a
real true friend. He walks away slowly, then turns again and gives Michelle
a smile.
Michelle: What are you smiling at? (pauses) Youre smiling. (She
runs over to Dao Ming Si.) Its my first time seeing you smile. (very happy)
Ah Sing is smiling!
Dao Ming Si (getting annoyed): Can you look at yourself now? So stupid.
Michelle (smiling): Smile again.
Dao Ming Si (walking up the stairs groaning): Leave me alone. So dirty.
Michelle (following him): Youre the one thats dirty. Ah Sing
smiled. Ah Sing smiled. Smile again.
Dao Ming Si: Go away. Are you crazy?
Inside the house, Michelle is trying to teach Dao Ming Si how to tie his shoelace. He gets frustrated and throws a temper. Michelle sees him sulking and goes to give him a speech again.
Michelle (kneeling down next to Dao Ming Si): Dont be mad at Ah Sing. You have to like Ah Sing. Do you know how lucky you are? Other people only has one life but you have two. Dont we always say if we can live our live all over again that would be so good? Then arent you living all over again? We forgot when we learn how to tie shoelaces and also forgot the feeling of success/happiness when we finally learned how to tie. You are so lucky. You can live through it again. Lets try again.
Michelle tries to teach Dao Ming Si again. But he soon gets impatient again and refuses to try any more. Later after Michelle has gone to bed, Dao Ming Si sits in a corner and practices shoelace tying all by himself. Michelle hears him muttering to himself and goes over to see him trying, smiles, then goes back to bed.
Next morning, Dao Ming Si walks up
to Michelle with his shoelaces tied perfectly. She starts laughing at him.
Dao Ming Si (annoyed): Why are you laughing like an idiot?
Michelle (smiling): Thats the most perfect shoelace bow that Ive
ever seen.
Dao Ming Si looks down at his shoes and smiles slightly at the compliment. Then
he reaches in his pocket and takes out a blue ribbon clip and hands it to Michelle.
She gets very excited and takes the clip to mirror and clips it onto her hair.
Dao Ming Si sees her happiness and starts smiling to himself.
Back in Spain, San Cai is once again
praying at the church. Lei is sitting on the benches at the last row of the
church. San Cai suddenly looks up as if she just thought of something.
San Cai: Lei, on which side of Dao Ming Sis face is his dimple?
God, I forgot. How can I forget?
Lei: Ah Shis dimple is in your heart. You didnt forget or
else why would you think about it all of a sudden?
San Cai (gets up from kneeling and goes over to Lei): Lei, can I ask you
a question? This legend, who told you? Does the legend have an ending?
(Shes referring to the legend about the church.)
Lei (smiling at San Cai): I found this legend from some old fairytales.
The legend doesnt have an ending, so you and Dao Ming Si will not NOT
have an ending. (In another words, she & Dao Ming Si will have an
ending.)
San Cai (looks content with his explanation): Lei. So, in this old fairy
tale book, would it also have the legend about the ring?
Lei: San Cai. In all the places in the world, there are lots of legends
but true love is not within them. If you dont believe in the person you
love, you will rely on the legend to live your life. If you believe in Ah Sis
love for you, then you should forget about the legend and wait until the end.
San Cai: Thank you Lei. Very funny. The two of us (referring to herself
& Dao Ming Si) dont have any fate with this church. (pauses) What
to do? Suddenly, I want to do a handstand.
Scene goes outside of the church. Hear San Cai talking.
San Cai: Lei, you lied.
Lei: What?
San Cai: Doing a handstand will not stop the tears from falling.
Michelle & Dao Ming Si are walking
in a park and sits down on a bench. Michelle takes out a mirror to fix her hair
and look at her blue ribbon clip. In her mirror, she sees the reflection of
a newspaper. She starts to get an idea. She gets up and runs over to the guy
reading the newspaper.
Michelle (kneeling down in front of the guy and staring at newspaper): Public
advertising? (speaking to no one in particular) Find housing, find job, find
missing things and also find people.
Guy (holding newspaper): Huh?
Michelle (stands up, excited): Therefore, can find memories too. Thank
you! (to the Guy)
Michelle runs back to Dao Ming Si & brings him to take Neoprints. She brings
him into a Neoprint machine telling him to stand still.
Michelle: Smile.
Dao Ming Si (annoyed): Im not crazy. Why would I smile at myself?
Michelle: Dont look at me, look here. Smile.
Dao Ming Si makes a very funny smile and the picture is taken.
San Cais parents are eating
food. Theyre using the newspaper for covering the table. San Cais
mom sees the picture of Dao Ming Si.
Mom: This person. Doesnt he look like Master Dao Ming Si?
Dad: Let me see. (looking at where San Cais mom is pointing) Aye,
looks very alike. Who would advertise this kind of notice? (reading from the
newspaper ad) Looking for oneself. Male. 21 years old. Lost oneself. Please
contact if you have information. (speaking to mother) Lost oneself? Thats
so stupid. That cant be Master Dao Ming Si.
Mom: But he really looks similar. However, their life is very different.
Our Master Dao Ming Si is now romantically with San Cai in Barcelona, eating
steak, drinking red wine, and dancing. As San Cais mom is talking,
San Cais dad is eating her food from her plate. They started fighting
over the food and got the newspaper and Dao Ming Sis ad very dirty.
Scene shifts to Zhong Ze (the guy who acts as Xiao Yous boyfriend in Meteor Garden). Zhong Ze is sitting in the park reading the newspaper and came across Dao Ming Sis advertisement. After seeing the ad, he starts planning.
Dao Ming Si & Michelle comes
home and finds Zhong Ze waiting for them. When Zhong Ze sees Dao Ming Si, hes
very happy.
Zhong Ze (running to Dao Ming Si & hugs him): Ah Si, Its really
you!
Dao Ming Si (brushing Zhong Ze off): Who are you?
Zhong Ze: Im Zhong Ze.
Dao Ming Si & Michelle looks at each other.
Michelle: Sorry but he doesnt remember anything.
Inside the house, Zhong Ze is sticking
straws into some bubble tea drinks for the 3 of them.
Zhong Ze: I saw the newspaper and I was so surprised. How could this happen?
(Walks over and hands a drink to Dao Ming Si) You really dont remember
anything?
Dao Ming Si (taking the drink): I cant even remember my name.
Zhong Ze: We all call you Ah Si. Your whole name is Dao Ming Si.
Michelle: Dao Ming Si?
Zhong Ze hands Michelle a drink too.
Zhong Ze: Yup, any recognition?
Dao Ming Si (repeating): Dao Ming Si. Not even a little.
Zhong Ze (sitting down next to Dao Ming Si): Its ok. Take it slowly.
I will help you. (He holds up his drink. Sort of like cheers. Everybody takes
a sip of the drink.)
Michelle asks: What is your relationship with Dao Ming Si?
Zhong Ze: My relationship with him? We met each other while fighting.
At that time, because of a misunderstanding, the two of us got into a fight
and in the end we became good friends.
Michelle (surprised): He knows how to fight?
Zhong Ze: At Ying De University, everybody is so afraid of Ah Shi. At
this time, whoever gets a red tag from him, and still wants to have a normal
life, the only choice is to leave school.
Dao Ming Si: Ying De University?
Zhong Ze: You really dont remember anything? You dont even
remember that you graduated from Ying De?
The drinks are drugged and the medicine is slowly taking effect.
Michelle (looking dizzy): Is the room spinning around?
Zhong Ze (speaking to Michelle): Must be that Taiwans sun is too
hot thats why your head is dizzy. (turns back to Dao Ming Si) But Ah Si
is Ah Si. Even though you had a car accident and lost your memory, but still
so quickly meet a pretty ma zi. (I think this is a slang for girlfriend.
Sorry not too sure.) (In the background, Michelle has already fainted.) What
happened to the other ma zi? Did you break up with her?
Dao Ming Si (feeling dizzy): What are you saying?
Zhong Ze: Do you still remember Xi Men?
Dao Ming Si (shaking his head lightly to try to clear it): Xi Men?
Zhong Ze: Your good friend Xi Men.
The drug finally takes over and Dao Ming Si faints.
Mei Zuo & Xi Men shows up at San Cais home. San Cais mom opens the door. San Cais mom & dad learn from Mei Zuo & Xi Men that Dao Ming Si is missing. Mom suddenly remembers about the picture that was in the newspaper. They looked around and found the newspaper but it was so dirty that the face is all blurred up. But both mom and dad swore that the picture was Dao Ming Si. Mei Zuo said that its ok, since theres a telephone number on it. But the phone number is blurred up too, and they can only see a couple of numbers. San Cais mom & dad remembers that they were fighting over the food that day so thats why the newspaper is all dirty and that the information is not readable. Mei Zuo & Xi Men said that it doesnt matter and that they will figure it out.
Dao Ming Si wakes up in the house
to find that hes on the floor and his hands are tied up. Michelle is also
tied up passed out on the bed. Zhong Ze is sitting on a chair waiting for them
to wake up.
Zhong Ze (speaking to Dao Ming Si): Youre awake? Master Dao Ming
Si.
Dao Ming Si (struggling to sit up): Who are you?
Michelle slowly starts to wake up.
Zhong Ze: Me? Im Zhong Ze. You never thought that there would be
this day right? Not only you, even Zhong Ze, I, didnt think that there
would be this day either.
Dao Ming Si: Didnt we meet over fighting?
Zhong Ze: We did but Im not your good friend. If I remember correctly,
you punched me 2 times and your good friend, Xi Men punched me 2 times. And
also your old ma zi (referring to San Cai) punched me once. So,
all together 5 punches, thats why you are in this state now. Not worth
it, huh?
Dao Ming Si: What do you want?
Zhong Ze: Want? I just want a little money. Oh I forgot that your memory
is not good. You probably dont remember that your Dao Ming family is very
rich.
Dao Ming Si: So, youre a low life.
Zhong Ze: Watch what you are saying. You are in my hands now. All those
judo, karate moves, cant help you now. But dont worry. If you listen
carefully, I wont do anything to you. Once I get the money, Ill
leave.
Michelle (sits up on the bed): So it was all for money? (She sighs.)
Zhong Ze: What are you sighing about?
Michelle: Im sighing because Im just wondering what bad luck
I have to have you ruin my plans.
Michelle is pretending that she is also after Dao Ming Sis money.
Zhong Ze (walks over to sit next to Michelle): Plans? Dont tell
me we are on the same boat?
Michelle: Did you really think that there are nice people in this world?
Zhong Ze: Thats right. How much were you thinking about asking for?
(Theyre talking about the ransom price.)
Michelle: What about you?
Zhong Ze: $500,000
Michelle (scoffs at his price): Do you have experience at all?
Zhong Ze (retorted back): You have experience?
Michelle: Ive managed to trick him back to Taiwan. You tell me if
I have experience.
Meanwhile, Dao Ming Si is listening
to the whole conversation, smiling sarcastically, cant believe what hes
listening to. He thinks Michelle is really helping him for his money.
Zhong Ze (sees Dao Ming Si smiling): What are you laughing at?
Dao Ming Si: Im laughing at myself for rushing to find out who I
am. But in the end I dont who you people are. What stars? What saving
me again? (talking about Michelle here.) Its all bullshit. (or Dao
Ming Si direct words: Dog shit.)
Michelle (talking to Dao Ming Si): Didnt you say I was fooling a
kid? Thats the way it is.!
Zhong Ze: What are you too talking about?
Michelle (looking at Zhong Ze): You
shut up. (speaking to Dao Ming Si) From the moment that your mom showed up at
the winery, all the big commotion, this plan, Ive carefully designed.
Your every move is within my plans. (turns to Zhong Ze) If it wasnt for
you, using such a stupid plan, I would have gotten $100,000,000 Taiwan Dollars.
Zhong Ze (stares at Michelle in shock): $100,000,000?
Michelle: Its all lost now at the hands of your stupidness.
Zhong Ze: What?
Michelle: From your plan, did you think you could get away after getting
the money? If you dont get his trust, have him give you the money willingly,
even if you got the money, you cant get away.
Dao Ming Si (smiling with an unbelievable look on his face): Using my
trust as your red card. You are very good.
Michelle: Sorry, I was hoping to leave you a good memory. Who knew that
we would meet up with this stupid person and ruin my good plan. And left such
a bad memory for you. Im so sorry.
Zhong Ze: You are right. Now what are we going to do?
Michelle: Theres nothing to do.
Zhong Ze: Oh come on. Think. Use you head.
Michelle: You want me to use my head like this? (motioning to her
tied hands)
Zhong Ze (unties her hands): Ok, now you can use your head? So what should
we do?
Michelle (rubbing her wrists): Listen to me.
Zhong Ze: Ok, but how much can you get?
Michelle: At least $5,000,000.
Zhong Ze (laughing out loud, very happy): $5,000,000! So what is our next
step?
Michelle: Oh come on. You must have his home phone number.
Zhong Ze takes out a piece of paper with a phone number on it.
Meanwhile, Dao Ming Sis mom returns home to Taiwan. Butler Lau greets her and welcomes her home.
Butler (running up to her): Madam,
welcome back. Your bath water has been prepared.
Dao Ming Feng: Did master call home?
Butler (turning to walk with Dao Ming Feng up the stairs): Let me report
to you. Master should now still be at Spain.
A maid runs in all flustered.
Maid (out of breath): Madam. Madam. Madam.
Butler: What are you so flustered about?
Maid: Its an important phone call. They said that they have the
master and wants $5,000,000!
Butler: What are you saying? Say it clearly.
Maid: Master has been kidnapped!
Butler (shocked): What?!
Dao Ming Feng: Connect the line to me upstairs. (Turns around to look
at the Butler) Have someone trace the line.
Butler: Yes Madam.
Mei Zuo, Xi Men & Qing He are
in a bar. F2 got Qing He to help them make calls because theyre not sure
what the phone number from the newspaper is.
Qing He: What?! Dao Ming Si is missing? I told you that I should have
gone with San Cai to Spain. Look, now she must need someone to take care of
her right?
Xi Men: Thats not the main point now, Qing He.
Qing He: So the main point is
Xi Men: Main point is to quickly call the numbers.
Mei Zuo (hands Qing He a sheet of paper): You take these.
Mei Zuo & Xi Men start making phone calls while Qing He sits staring at
the paper.
Mei Zuo (looking at Qing He): Hurry up and start calling.
Qing He: But so many numbers, if we call one by one, how long would it
take?
Mei Zuo: You want to be beaten?
Qing He: No, but isnt this plan so stupid?
Mei Zuo reaches over the table and grabs Qing He by his shirt.
Xi Men: Mei Zuo, forget it.
MZ lets Qing He go.
Qing He (speaks under his breath): I just wanted to say that why cant
we go to the library to find the a copy of the newspaper?
Xi Men (looking up): What did you say?
Qing He (scared): Nothing. Nothing. I didnt say
I didnt
say to go to the library to look for the newspaper.
Mei Zuo & Xi Men look at each other, giving each other the look of why didnt
we think of that?
Dao Ming Si is handcuffed to the
table or something. Zhong Ze hangs up phone after talking to Dao Ming Sis
mom.
Michelle: Whats wrong?
Zhong Ze (disgusted tone): His mom said she want proof that we have him.
Michelle: I have it ready. (Takes out Neoprints) Ta Da!
Zhong Ze (surprised & pleased): So you do have it all planned out.
Lets go mail this.
Michelle: You go by yourself.
Zhong Ze: Ya Sha. I cant leave you here alone with him.
Michelle: Isnt the keys to the handcuffs in your hands?
Zhong Ze (reaches inside his pocket to make sure that he does have them, therefore
letting Michelle see where he has hidden it): Yes but you are very tricky.
I just want to be careful.
Michelle: Ok, lets go.
At the library, Mei Zuo, Xi Men &
Qing He are searching through the newspapers. Qing He finally finds the picture.
Qing He: Found it!
Mei Zuo and Xi Men walk over to see.
Qing He: Dao Ming Si
looks very funny.
Mei Zuo (looking at picture): Its really Ah Si.
Xi Men: Quick, call Lei.
Zhong Ze checks on Dao Ming Sis handcuffs to make sure that its secure and tapes his mouth close too. Zhong Ze & Michelle get on a motorcycle to mail the letter. While on the motorcycle, Michelle tries to steal the keys to the handcuffed from his pocket but couldnt. They stop at a mailbox and mailed the photo to Dao Ming Sis mom.
San Cai is standing outside the church.
Lei comes running behind.
Lei (with a big smile on his face, holds up his phone): San Cai.
The phone is ringing at Michelle
& Dao Ming Sis house. Dao Ming Si tries to get up and get the phone
but cant so he started struggling and kicking the table. Meanwhile, it
was Xi Men that was making the call. He and Mei Zuo are in the car driving.
Xi Men (looking at Mei Zuo): No one answering.
Mei Zuo: Call again. Quick.
Xi Men (speaking on cell phone): Hello? Talk.
Mei Zuo (yelling): Ah Si!
Xi Men: Hello?
Mei Zuo: Ah Si!
Xi Men: Helllllllllo?
Dao Ming Si finally was able to kick the table until the phone was knocked off
the hook but he couldnt talk cause his mouth was taped close.
Mei Zuo: What happened?
Xi Men: No one speaking but it sounds like someone is kicking something.
(talking into the phone again) Hello? Are you Ah Si?
Mei Zuo: Ah Si!
Zhong Ze comes back in time and hangs up the phone. Back in the car Xi Men hangs
up.
Xi Men: Ah Si must be in trouble.
Mei Zuo: Doesnt matter. Lets find the address where the number
is from.
Zhong Ze gets mad at Dao Ming Si
and yells at him not to try anything fishy again. Michelle tries to seduce Zhong
Ze, so that she can get the key to the handcuffs away when he is not aware.
She is kissing him and while kissing him, she tries to get her hands inside
his pant pocket for the keys. Zhong Ze realizes what she is trying to do and
grabs her hands.
Zhong Ze: Dont think Im stupid.
He pushes her away. Michelle falls onto the floor and sees a knife nearby. She
picks up the knife.
Zhong Ze (with his back to Michelle & talking to Dao Ming Si): So
you two want the keys right? You think
He never finishes the sentence because Michelle stabs Zhong Ze in the back with
the knife and he falls to the ground, groaning in pain. She gets the keys and
unlocks Dao Ming Sis handcuffs. As she was unlocking the handcuffs, Zhong
Ze picks up the knife and comes after them, but Dao Ming Si got free and punched
him in the face.
The next day , at the airport, San
Cai & Lei arrives in Taiwan and is picked up by Mei Zuo & Xi Men. Meanwhile,
3 cars show up at the place where Michelle & Dao Ming Sis house is.
Dao Ming Sis mom is inside one of the cars. Shes holding the letter
in her hands and crumbles it up, looking very mean. Dao Ming Feng and two black
suit guys walked into the house, only to find Zhong Ze handcuffed to the table.
Zhong Ze (looks up, relieved): Finally, someone comes. Help me find the
keys, it should be here somewhere.
Dao Ming Feng (looks around, then turns to Zhong Ze): Where is Dao Ming
Si?
Zhong Ze looks away and dont answer. Dao Ming Feng turns around, stops
by the door and looks at the black suit guys. The 2 guys nodded their head and
Dao Ming Feng walked out. Black suit guys closed the door, sounds of punching
and hitting and someone crying in pain coming through the door from inside.
F3 & San Cai arrives at the house
and was stopped by the guards standing in the front, but they pushed passed
them. As they were on their way upstairs, they run into Dao Ming Feng coming
downstairs.
Dao Ming Feng (looking at them): Didnt know you guys move so fast.
Lei: If it wasnt for you, Auntie, we would have been faster.
Dao Ming Feng: Who are you people to be talking to me like that? Im
not the person that lost Ah Si in Spain. Now making Ah Si cant return
home is also not me.
Mei Zuo (stepping forward): Auntie, what do you mean by that?
Dao Ming Feng: Then youll have to ask yourself. Which one of you
have a good friend call Zhong Ze? He wants to kidnapped Ah Si and blackmail
me for money!
Xi Men (confused): Zhong Ze?
Mei Zuo (turning to face Xi Men, Lei & San Cai): Whos Zhong
Ze?
San Cai (gasps, remembering): Xiao Yous ex boyfriend.
Xi Men (recognizing the name, gets angry and walks forward): The bastard!
Xi Men and the rest of the gang run upstairs to the room. Xi Men goes up to
Zhong Ze.
Xi Men: Its really you. Wheres Ah Si?
Zhong Ze (all beaten up): I said it already, even if you beat me to death,
I dont know where he is.
Mei Zuo (coming forward & shouting angrily): Youre lying. How
can you kidnap Ah Si all by yourself? How many other partners do you have? Where
have you taken Ah Si?
At this moment, Dao Ming Sis
mom walks in through the door.
Dao Ming Feng: Dont question him anymore. You guys want to know?
Then let me tell you for him. Ah Si met with a car accident in Spain. His head
got injured and he lost all his memories. I dont know who brought Ah Si
back to Taiwan. (pause) You guys always say you are such good friends of Ah
Sis. Its all because of a fall with Zhong Ze and let the selfish
money hogging Zhong Ze call for revenge, pulling Ah Si into this whole mess.
Now Ah Si is really missing. How can you guys explain this to me? (pauses again)
So, Ah Sis things, you people dont have to worry about anymore.
(Dao Ming Sis mom walks up to San Cai) Especially YOU. Ah Si now doesnt
remember anything and that would also include you. You listen carefully to me,
he has forgotten about you, so he cant love you anymore, so you should
take this chance to forget about him.
Dao Ming Sis mom walks away
from the room after speaking.
Mei Zuo (turning to look at San Cai): San Cai, dont listen to her.
San Cai runs after Dao Ming Feng.
San Cai (running after her): Auntie.
Dao Ming Feng (stops with her back to San Cai): What? What more do you
want?
San Cai (stands there looking at Dao Ming Sis moms back): Nothing.
I just want to ask. Did Dao Ming Si forget about you too?
Dao Ming Feng: Thats none of your business.
San Cai: Dao Ming Si cant remember you but you still wont
forget about him, right?
Dao Ming Feng: Im his mother.
San Cai: Im another person like you who really loves him. So, it
doesnt matter how much you hate me and it doesnt matter who Ah Si
is now or how he has changed, I would be like you, Auntie, no matter what, will
find him back.
Dao Ming Feng (finally turning to face San Cai): If you want to waste
your efforts, I can care less. But you listen carefully, Ah Sis things
you cant go to the police, cant spread the news around. If its
because of you, that something happens to Ah Si, I would definitely make you
regret it.
Dao Ming Sis mom walks away
and the 3 cars drive away. Meanwhile, back at the house.
Mei Zuo: No wonder he advertise in the newspaper that he has lost himself.
Lei: He is like a helpless child right now, no chance to protect himself.
Mei Zuo (rushing over to Zhong Ze & shouting): How can you do this
to Ah Si?!
Xi Men (grabbing Mei Zuo by the arms to hold him back): Mei Zuo.
Zhong Ze: Why? Because this world is not fair, very unfair. You people
have money and power so you can do whatever you want. But I cant?
(laughs crazily)
Mei Zuo tries to punch him. Xi Men holds him back again.
Xi Men: Mei Zuo, Mei Zuo, dont.
Zhong Ze: I just want to prove that when Dao Ming Si have nothing, I can
still fix him up. So, you are the same.
Mei Zuo: Shut up! You dare to treat Ah Si this way!
Zhong Ze (laughing & crying): Yup, I thought that if I fix him up
then I can get my revenge. But God is not being fair. Not only did he get away,
but he also left me in the hands of you guys. Its ok. Doesnt matter.
Im a low life anyway. If you guys want to hit me, then go ahead.
Mei Zuo starts to go over to hit
him. Just then there was the loud sound of an electronic saw and Xi Men is holding
onto it. Mei Zuo stops and looks back at Xi Men shocked. Lei also turns quickly
to stare at Xi Men. Zhong Ze gets this really scared expression on his face.
Xi Men brings the saw over his head. San Cai shows up at the door and shouts,
Xi Men, NO!! Xi Men brings the saw down. San Cai screams, covering
her eyes and Zhong Ze cries out. Xi Men only used the saw to cut the handcuffs
apart for Zhong Ze, and not to hurt him or kill him. Zhong Ze stares at the
broken handcuffs and starts crying uncontrollably. Xi Men puts down the saw
and walks over to San Cai standing at the door.
Xi Men: San Cai. Sorry. Its all my fault that got Ah Si into this
mess.
Summary of MG2 Episode 6:
Scene opens where Dao Ming Si &
Michelle are in a park. Dao Ming Si is awake and sitting on a bench while Michelle
is asleep lying on the bench using Dao Ming Sis right leg as a pillow.
He sits there watching her sleep and apparently, his leg started to feel numb
because hes making faces like hes in pain. Michelle finally wakes
up and Dao Ming Si had the face of relieve behind her back. Michelle stretches
and yawns.
Dao Ming Si: You still havent slept enough?
Michelle: You didnt sleep all night?
Dao Ming Si: How can I sleep in this kind of place? Also, theres
this pig that was using my leg as a pillow to sleep on all night, made me afraid
to move around. Even when there are mosquitoes, I dont dare hit it.
Michelle (smiling sweetly): Why didnt you say anything to me?
Dao Ming Si (annoyed): Nonsense. What was I suppose to say? I was afraid
Id wake you up.
Dao Ming Si sits there massaging his right leg. All a sudden, he slaps himself
because a mosquito was flying around.
Michelle (reaches out and grabs his hand): Ok, already. We were able to
save our lives, thats not bad already.
Dao Ming Si (looking like a parent scolding a child): So you did know
that it was dangerous.
Michelle (looking innocent): What do you mean?
Dao Ming Si: First theres the burglar, then theres the kidnapper.
Why do you like fighting with other people? Why do you like making people worry?
Does that make you happy?
Michelle (confused and staring at Dao Ming Si): Huh?
Dao Ming Si (turns to look at her, mimicking): Huh? Huh what huh? You
are a stupid woman, rotten woman, pig. Are you a pig? Im telling you for
the last time, I wont allow you to take your own body/health so lightly.
I wont allow you to use your own life to fight with other peoples.
I wont allow you
(voice trails off)
Michelle stares at him smiling the whole time.
Dao Ming Si (stuttering): I wont allow
(still stuttering)
I wont allow you anything so thats that.
Michelle starts laughing.
Dao Ming Si (annoyed): What are you laughing at?
Michelle (still laughing): Very happy. You use to not talk or say anything
at all and now youre scolding at people. Youre improving very quickly.
Dao Ming Si stares at her while she
continues laughing. Then,
Dao Ming Si (with his hands over his stomach): Youre not hungry?
Michelle (with her hands over her stomach): Very hungry.
Dao Ming Si: Why are you copying me?
Michelle: Youre the one thats copying me.
A couple of steps away, an old man
is pushing along a bicycle selling pork buns or some kind of buns. Dao Ming
Si and Michelle both scrambling in their pocket looking for money.
Dao Ming Si: Do you have money? I dont have any.
Michelle (taking some change out of her pocket): I have. I have.
Dao Ming Si (looking over): How much?
Michelle (counting change): $12
Dao Ming Si (unbelievable tone): $12?!?!? What
They used the money to buy one bun
and split it in half to share.
Michelle (taking a bite): Hmm, delicious.
Dao Ming Si (eating & talking at the same time): Didnt know
that $12 can by something this delicious to eat. (He stuffs the rest of
the bun into his mouth.)
Michelle (looking at him): You ate so fast.
Dao Ming Si, still chewing, turns over to stare at the other half of the remaining
bun in Michelles hands. She sees him staring and quickly turns away, taking
a bigger bite.
Dao Ming Si: Do you have another $12?
Michelle: You look yourself.
Dao Ming Si looks around him then turns back to stare at Michelles bun.
She quickly turns away again.
Next scene, Dao Ming Si & Michelle
is walking away from the park.
Dao Ming Si: What are we going to do?
Michelle: Do about what?
Dao Ming Si: What are we going to do from now on? We cant stay here
forever.
Michelle: Well, of course go look for another place to live. If not, there
might be another Zhong Ze and then what?
Dao Ming Si: The problem is that we met up with a burglar and then you
put up the newspaper advertisement, so now we have no money to rent a place.
Michelle: Lets use the $2 left over to call Mrs. Hui. (the
lady that Sha Ge knows, who rented the place for them to live in the first place.)
Dao Ming Si: Ok. Lets go find a phone.
Michelle: Ok.
Dao Ming Si is speaking on a pay
phone with Mrs. Hui.
Mrs. Hui: Youre right. If it was me, I wouldnt dare continue
living there either. But the thing is that our home already has a lot of people,
if we add the two of you
that would be too crowded. Ah, theres an
old lady living near here, whos tenant just moved away and she has a very
kind heart, so you could talk to her about renting.
Dao Ming Si: Really? Ok, thank you.
Dao Ming Si hangs up the pay phone.
Dao Ming Si (to Michelle): She said theres an old lady who might
a have a place to rent. Its not far from here.
Michelle (pointing to paper in Dao Ming Sis hand): This address?
Dao Ming Si: Yes.
They both head off to find the home
of the old lady. They meet up with an old lady outside the house.
Michelle: Hi Grandma, how are you?
Grandma: Who are you looking for?
Michelle: Mrs. Hui recommended us to come and rent a place here.
Dao Ming Si (showing Grandma the paper): Right, she wrote this for us.
She said that over here there might be
Grandma (looks at Dao Ming Si, then turns to walk away): Nothing to rent.
Michelle (walking after her): But Grandma, we come from another country
and we really need a place to live.
Grandma: You, young people, dont behave well (follow rules). Ive
had enough. Not renting!
Dao Ming Si (getting defensive): If you dont want to rent, then
dont rent. Why do you have to be so mean? Being young people are against
the law?
Michelle (speaking softly to Dao Ming Si, trying to restrain him): Forget
it.
Dao Ming Si (brushing her away): Whats there to be afraid of? Said
we young people dont follow rules/behave well, what about yourself? So
old and have no manners. (looking back at Michelle) She really doesnt.
Grandma (backing up): The two of you, what are your relationship?
Dao Ming Si / Michelle: Friend / Brother and sister. (Both spoke
at the same time.)
Grandma: Whats your budget/income?
Dao Ming Si / Michelle: None / It varies. (Both spoke at the same
time again.)
Grandma: Not well behaved. Liars, not renting!
Grandma starts walking away, but almost trips over her shoelaces and drops her
keys. She wanted to bend down, but her bad leg was giving her a problem.
Dao Ming Si sees this and starts
kneeling down in front of her.
Grandma: Hey, what are you doing?
Dao Ming Si picks up her keys, ties her shoelaces for her and gives her back
the keys. He and Michelle then starts walking away. The Grandma looks after
them, smiles to herself and got inside her car.
Michelle: You got hooked on tying shoelaces?
Dao Ming Si: No. I just feel that the Grandma is so old and have such
a big temper, she must be very strong. But I feel regretful of the way I was
so mean to her.
Grandma driving by slowly in her car, calls out.
Grandma: Aye, rent is $5,000. Three month deposit. If you dont have
enough money, wait till you have enough income, then pay me as soon as possible.
Also, you cant have any pets, cant bring strangers home. After using
the pots, pans, cups, chopsticks, dont leave them in the sink. After 10
p.m. and before 7 a.m., dont make any noise. And last, dont call
me Grandma. If you break any of the above rules, you will get thrown
out.
After she said all that, she drives away. Dao Ming Si & Michelle watching
her drive away, shouts, Thank you Grandma! Both run after the car
and jump around happily laughing.
Grandma shows them to the apartment
on the second floor.
Grandma: Take a look yourself.
Dao Ming Si: This one?
Grandma: What?
Dao Ming Si: Ah, nothing. The furniture. (the room was totally empty.)
Grandma: You dont want?
Michelle: Grandma, did anyone live in this room?
Grandma: Do you have a problem with it? You dont want to rent anymore?
Michelle: Thats not it.
Grandma: Ok, ok, take care of the things yourself. (Grandma leaves.)
Dao Ming Si & Michelle explore around the new apartment. The place has a
huge balcony area.
Michelle (looking at the scenery):
Wow, very beautiful.
Dao Ming Si: What is our next step?
Michelle (looking up at the sky): Ask God for help. (pauses) Lets
go.
San Cai walking around the street
all by herself.
Thinking: Been back to Taiwan for more than a week already, I have stopped
the urge to cry all of a sudden, have stopped the tears from falling. But I
still am scared to stay at home, because I dont want mom and dad to worry
about me.
San Cai stops walking and sits down on a nearby bench.
Thinking: However, no matter where I run to, I still cant run away
from myself, and cant run away from
Dao Ming Si.
San Cai continues walking and walked back to the place that Dao Ming Si &
Michelle use to live. She got into the house and sits staring at the map painted
on the wall by Michelle. Flashbacks from San Cais mind: San Cai throwing
up on Dao Ming Sis Armani suit at Jings party. Dao Ming Si saving
her from the school bullys at the school ground. The time when he said
if you say you didnt do it, I believe you. The time when Dao Ming Si was
chasing the bus that San Cai was on. The kiss they shared after he gave her
the meteor necklace on the balcony at his home. End of flashback. San Cai writes
on the wall. Writing: Dao Ming Si, I wont give up. I know you are
on the road back home, so Im going to wait for you. Forever waiting for
you to find yourself.
Dao Ming Si & Michelle is at
a garbage dump looking through the furniture that people have thrown away. Dao
Ming Si is carrying some sort of book case or rack and walking away. Michelle
is dragging a rug with her.
Michelle (stops and pointing): Theres more on that side.
Dao Ming Si (not looking back): These are enough. Ive very tired.
Michelle: But theres nothing back at the house. (pulling rug, stops
and looks back) Hey, theres really a lot more.
Scene shifts to San Cai walking and
stopping at the corner of a street. She sees an electronic billboard that is
used for advertisements and takes out her cell phone to call the company.
San Cai: Hello, how are you? I want to ask how much does it cost to advertise
on your companys electronic billboard? (pauses) Oh, its by the minute?
Well then how much is a minute? (gasp) So expensive?
San Cai, looking disappointed, hangs up the phone and stares at the billboard
again.
Michelle & Dao Ming Si is decorating
their apartment. Michelle is using dry leaves to decorate the wall. Dao Ming
Si sees this and takes it down to throw away.
Michelle (taking the leaves back): What are you doing?
Dao Ming Si: What? To throw.
Michelle: Throw? How can you throw it away?
She takes it back and continues to stick them on the wall. Next scene, Michelle
is shaking out a blanket and a cloud of dust flies up. Dao Ming Si walks by
carrying some things and was about to sneeze when Michelle puts her finger to
his nose to stop him from sneezing. But the moment she takes it away, he sneezes
anyway.
After a whole day of moving and decorating,
Dao Ming Si & Michelle is very tired. They are both outside, carrying more
stuff home when Michelle finally drops the blanket shes holding to the
ground and stops.
Michelle: I cant
. Very tired
Very thirsty.
They stopped in front of a club/bar and there was a beer drinking contest going
on. Both Dao Ming Si & Michelle participated in the contest. Inside the
club:
Dao Ming Si (finished drinking a mug): Hey, I cant drink anymore.
Michelle (also finished drinking a mug): I still can. (shouting to the
bartender) Give me another one.
Dao Ming Si (trying to stop her): If you continue like this, youll
get drunk.
Michelle: I wont.
Dao Ming Si: If you get drunk, Im not carrying you back.
Michelle: Its ok. (drinking another mug)
Everybody around was chanting, You can do it.
Michelle finishes and everybody was chanting, Prize money.
Dao Ming Si grabs Michelle by the shoulders, very happy.
Dao Ming Si (excited): We get the prize money.
But at this moment a big chubby guy walks up to Dao Ming Si & Michelle .
Guy: Drink beer. (Hes probably issuing a challenge or something.)
Michelle (looking at the guy): I can do it. Lets go.
Michelle and the guy both drinking an extra, extra large mug of beer and both
finished it up.
Guy: Again.
Michelle: I can do it.
They both finish another large mug, but this time the guy cant take it
anymore and after drinking, starting wobbling toward Dao Ming Si. Dao Ming Si
pushes him away. Michelle wins the contest and Dao Ming Si holds her wrists,
waving back and forth excited.
Michelle (drunken state): I won
I won
(She starts falling
backwards and Dao Ming Si catches her.)
Dao Ming Si is carrying the drunken
Michelle on his back and the blanket underneath his right arm home. Michelle
is on his back mumbling, Drink again
Drink again.
Michelle: Not scared
(paused) Can do it
(paused) Drink again
(laughing crazily)
Dao Ming Si finally reaches home and struggles to carry Michelle up the stairs.
Michelle (mumbling): Again.
Dao Ming Si: Again your head again. Getting so drunk.
Michelle (more mumbling): Can do it
Again
Dao Ming Si (struggling up the stairs): Again your head.
He finally makes it up the stairs and drops her on the bed. Then he goes to
wet a towel and cleans her face with it. Suddenly, Michelle sits up looking
very sober.
Michelle: Hey, did you take the prize money?
Dao Ming Si: You were sober all this time? You dont know how to
drink and lied and said you did. Then got so drunk.
Michelle: You lied too.
Dao Ming Si: What did I lie about?
Michelle (slurring again): Didnt you say you werent going
to bring me back? (slowly she starts to fall asleep, mumbling) Your back.. it
was very comfortable.
Dao Ming Si: You
Michelle has fallen asleep on his shoulder, using it as a pillow, then she started
slipping off the bed until shes half on the bed and half off the bed.
Dao Ming Si uses his foot to move her but didnt get any response.
Meanwhile, San Cai, Lei, Mei Zuo,
and Xi Men is in a bar. San Cai is sitting by herself and Lei walked over to
sit next to her. Mei Zuo and Xi Men is arguing in the background.
Lei: San Cai, what are you thinking about?
Xi Men (talking to Mei Zuo): The problem is you made this whole thing
so complicated.
Mei Zuo: Its not
San Cai (answering Lei): Im thinking theres something I want
to discuss with you guys.
Xi Men (still talking to Mei Zuo): So what exactly are you saying? I think
its so strange.
San Cai (looking over at Mei Zuo & Xi Men): What are they arguing
about?
Xi Men (hearing San Cais words): Whos arguing with him?
Lei: Were thinking if theres any other way that we can look
for Ah Si.
Xi Men (walking over to Lei & San Cai): Mei Zuo thought of 800 ways
but within those 800 ways, all of them require big commotions.
Mei Zuo (defending himself): Theres still way #801 which is the
four of us can go out and search around ourselves and see if we can meet up
with Ah Si in the streets.
Xi Men (sarcastically): Thank you.
Mei Zuo (just as sarcastic): Youre welcome. (pause) If youre
so good, then you think of a way without making a big commotion.
San Cai (interrupting the argument): Sorry. But theres something
I dont understand. Why cant we make a big commotion?
Xi Men (looking at Mei Zuo): Because its stupid.
Mei Zuo (replying back): And youre not?
San Cai: OK, forget I asked. The two of you stop arguing.
Xi Men (serious tone): San Cai, I think that Zhong Ze is not the only
enemy that I have.
Mei Zuo: Not only you. You should say that the amount of people who would
want revenge against F4, is not little.
Lei: And Ah Si is not a normal person. Hes the heir to the Dao Ming
family. So no matter what, we cant take the chance. (pauses, looking at
San Cai) Didnt you have something to say to us?
San Cai: Huh? I forgot already.
San Cai was thinking about talking to F3 about the electronic billboard, but
after hearing their conversation, she was afraid to bring it up.
San Cai is back in her apartment
(the place that Lei rented for her back in MG1). She couldnt sleep and
takes out her savings account book.
San Cai (looking at the figure in the savings book): So little? Thats
right. Before going to Spain, I wasnt working and then when I came back
But if my budget was more flexible
(she rummages around the desk drawer)
Wheres the calculator?
San Cais mom and dad is sitting
around a table with bills all over the tabletop. San Cais dad is calculating
all the bills on the calculator.
Dad (punching #s on the calculator): Insurance bills, water bills,
electric bills, wedding money.
Mom (looks up): What wedding money?
Dad: This guy at the company is getting married next week.
Mom (in disgust): Whats he marrying for? These kind of people are
so hateful. Give him $600 only.
Dad (in disbelief): $600?!?!?! How can you give $600? So embarrassing.
Mom: We cant even pay for San Cais tuition, who cares if its
embarrassing or not? (looking down at calculator) What?! Such a big difference?
Dad: Shhh, lower your voice. San Cais not asleep yet.
Mom (starts getting all teary and sad): Dont think I dont
know. These couple of days, San Cai just rolls around on her bed and cant
fall asleep until day break. It wasnt easy sending San Cai to Ying De
and thought that after she meets Master Ah Si, that would be like meeting a
big treasure, but who would think that is was just meeting a bunch of big problems
instead. The happy, easy going daughter is now so sad and down. (she starts
crying)
Dad: Mother, we cant be sad. We said, for San Cai, we have to be
strong.
Mom (drying her tears): Strong? Yes
Then lets take a look
at which expense we can do away with. Ok? Oh and starting from tomorrow, we
start eating vegetarian. Since we are both so healthy anyway. (shes
referring to both of their chubbiness.)
Suddenly San Cais dad starts crying.
Mom: Dad, if you dont want to eat vegetarian, you dont have
to start crying.
Dad: Its not whether we eat vegetarian or not
Mom: Then whats the problem?
Dad (bawling): Im just thinking, Im so useless. Being a dad,
San Cai is starting school again and I cant pay for her tuition. What
use am I?
Meanwhile, San Cai was behind the door listening in to their conversation all
along.
Next day, San Cai is finish working
at the pastry shop and was leaving.
San Cai: Im leaving now, boss.
Boss: Aye, San Cai. Wait a minute. Theres a slice of cake left over,
bring it home. (She takes out the slice of strawberry mousse cake.)
San Cai sees the cake, her expression turns very sad and remembers the strawberry
mousse cake that she shared with Dao Ming Si in Spain.
San Cai: Thats ok. My next job comes with a dinner.
Boss: You found another job?
San Cai: Yes.
Boss: Why are you working so hard? Tiring yourself out?
San Cai: Its not tiring. I get money. So why would I be tired? Im
off. Bye.
Xi Men goes to a club/bar. One of his friends work there and hes bringing him a bottle of red wine to try. He was going to leave but his friend stopped him saying that they have some new girls today (girls that sell drinks to customers.) San Cai walks out of the back room with another girl, but then quickly ducks back in. Xi Men turns his head and misses her. He then leaves the club asking for a rain check.
Inside the back room, San Cai is
dressed in a red polka dot mini skirt and a pink sleeveless tank with a huge
red bow on top of her head.
Girl1: What are you doing?
San Cai: I cant. Look at the way Im dressing. You want me
to go out like this? Id rather jump into the ocean and kill myself.
Girl2: No choice. Trying to earn money.
San Cai (sighs): Youre right.
She walks out and starts selling the drinks to the customers.
A little later, everybody is back
in the back room again.
Girl1 (coming in): Im not going.
San Cai: Going where?
Girl1: He wants us to dress up and advertise on the streets tomorrow.
San Cai (thinking about what Mei Zuo said about possibly meeting Dao Ming Si
on the streets, blurts out): Ill do it.
Girl1 (surprised): Didnt you say that the outfit is ugly?
San Cai: The more ugly the better. That way people will notice.
Dao Ming Si & Michelle is in
their apartment fixing the furniture again. Grandma comes up and looks around,
surprised to see so many things around. Michelle and Dao Ming Si sees her and
calls, Grandma. Grandma nods her head to acknowledge them.
Michelle (handing Grandma some money): We are trying to get the rest.
Please count this.
Grandma takes the money and checks it out to see if its real or not and
starts counting. Then she hands some money back to Michelle.
Grandma: You have to save some for yourselves.
Michelle (taking it back): Thank you Grandma.
Grandma looks around again then walks out.
Dao Ming Si (whispering): How much?
Michelle: $1,000. We have money!
Dao Ming Si (excited): Yeah! Im going to buy noodles to eat.
Dao Ming Si & Michelle go shopping
in the supermarket. Buys toothbrush, chips, and fruit. The coconuts were on
sale and they bought a lot of them. Then they went back to the apartment to
eat and drink coconut juice. After drinking the coconut juice, they used the
coconut husk as a pumpkin and carved faces from it and put candles in the middle.
They were having so much fun that they started laughing crazily and woke up
Grandma. Grandma got out of her bed and yelled at them.
Grandma: The two of you. What time is it now? I said after 10 pm dont
make any noise. You dont want to rent anymore? (she turns to walk
away)
Dao Ming Si & Michelle sneaks up to her and leaves her a coconut that they
made, which has an eyeglass on like Grandma then run away. Grandma turns back,
looks at the coconut, sticks her tongue out at it and walks away.
Meanwhile, San Cai just got home from work. Her cell phone beeps, letting her know that she has voicemail. She picks it up to listen to her voicemail, the first message is from her mom:
Mom: San Cai, where are you? Why are you not answering your phone? Dad bought home some meat thats especially for you. (mom talking to dad in the background) Hey, dont steal it to eat. Youre eating vegetarian now, did you forget?
The next message is from Xi Men:
Xi Men: Were at VS. You coming over? Mei Zuo & Lei is here too.
Doesnt matter. Come over now. I have something very funny to tell you.
The next message is from San Cais
mom again:
Mom: Ive hidden the meat in your room inside the drawer. Remember
to eat it when you come home.
Next message is from Mei Zuo:
Mei Zuo: San Cai, are you at the pastry shop again
San Cai hangs up in the middle of
Mei Zuos message and reads an SMS message from Lei.
Lei: Bull, are you doing a handstand? Or are you hiding?
San Cai doesnt answer any of them and goes to bed.
Next morning, Dao Ming Si & Michelle
both wake up with a stomachache. Dao Ming Si runs quickly to the bathroom. Michelle
slowly wakes up and her stomach hurts too. She runs to the bathroom and knocks
on the door.
Michelle (holding onto her tummy): Ah Sing.
Dao Ming Si (calling out through the door): What?
Michelle: My stomach hurts. Hurry up.
Dao Ming Si: Im in the bathroom now.
Michelle: Hurry UP.
Dao Ming Si: Ok, Ok.
Dao Ming Si comes out and Michelle rushes in.
Dao Ming Si (walking away from the bathroom): Weird. Why does my stomach
hurt?
He suddenly stops, grabs his stomach, and turns to run back to the bathroom.
Dao Ming Si (knocking on door): Ya Sha. Hurry up, I tell you. Im
hurting again.
At this time, Grandma walks up to Dao Ming Si and Michelle walks out of the
bathroom.
Grandma: So early in the morning. Whats all the noise about? Huh?
Why so loud? (She turns to leave) Lower it a little ok?
Michelle and Dao Ming Si starts fighting
for the bathroom again once Grandma leaves. After several more trips to the
bathroom, both drop down on the ground near the table in exhaustion. Grandma
comes up and gives them both some medicine.
Grandma: Helps the stomach. One minute cold, then hot and drink so much
coconut juice, Id be surprised if you didnt have a stomachache.
(turns to leave, then turns back) Also, clean up the bathroom for me. So stinky.
Michelle (staring at the coconuts that are lying on the table): So it
was you.
Dao Ming Si (hits one of the coconut): Its all your fault. Made
me got yelled at by Grandma, you stinky rotten egg.
Michelle: What did you call it?
Dao Ming Si: Rotten egg. He made our stomach hurt, if we dont call
it rotten egg, then what do we call it?
Michelle (smiling): Right.
Dao Ming Si (hitting the coconut again): Still smiling, rotten egg. Go
think about what you did. (the coconut starts rolling away) Trying to get away?
Stand still.
Suddenly, their stomach starts hurting again and both grabbed the medicine that
Grandma left behind.
