A toast to our deal!

To our

joint venture.

To our

great success!

Another round

of drinks?

My wife will

be pissed.

Chang,

you're still single.

Take my advice,

don't get married.

Excuse me,

closing time.

Bye.

Hi.

I've quit my job.

I'm tired of junk that

doesn't last even a day.

The stock exchange prices,

corporate earnings,

I can't...

I need something that's

not here today

and gone tomorrow.

You won't

find that in Hong Kong.

But you see,

I have.

You have?

That's why I want you

to come away with me.

I can't.

You spend

your whole life

waiting for Chang

to ask you to marry him.

And that's wrong?

Of course.

Yes.

Yes?

Why?

Because you know

in your heart,

that he's never

going to ask you.

Will you

marry me?

Thank you.

l...

I can't.

Why!

What are you

frightened of?

I'm offering you

something real.

I'm offering you

something now,

something concrete!

Don't be a coward.

Please.

John:
They say that if you're bleeding

from a broken heart,

you must get a piece of

jade and keep it close.

Then your blood

will go into the stone.

And the stone will get

into your blood.

Your blood will then

become the stone

and you will

stop bleeding.

Hi.

I've got some goodies for you.

Look at these watches.

- No, sorry.

- How about some handbags?

No, thanks.

Hey guys, Rolexes,

Cartiers, Dunhill lighters!

It's not up to me.

Come on, a bargain.

$100?

Hey boys, you want

pretty girls?

Come on.

I take you to a good place.

F*** off!

How are you

feeling, John?

Fine.

Good.

Does it hurt?

I'll live.

A bit sore

in the butt.

So, is that

test finished?

Yes. We've done

all the tests we need to.

We pretty much know

what's going on.

What is that?

I'm afraid I don't have

very good news for you.

You got a serious

problem here.

It's a form

of leukemia.

And I think it's gone

to your brain as well.

That's why you're getting

these dizzy spells and fainting.

It's not common,

but it's spreading

very quickly.

John:
How long do we

have do you think?

Doctor:

Three months, six months.

Jim:
They start to talk, the girl sort of

backing away from him,

and finally he gets her into the thing,

and then suddenly he hears,

bam, bam, bam,

on the door.

And he freaks out

and the girl is...

So you know

what happened?

Some guy escaped

from an insane asylum...

What was that?

He said there is a bomb

in the City Council.

That's why

slow traffic.

Oh f***!

I can't bear

this f***ing city.

I can't...

Is it Vivian?

John:
Just a week ago,

all I wanted

was to tell Vivian

how much I loved her.

But now I see that's

the one thing I mustn't do.

I can't offload

my illness onto her,

or Jim,
