...I wouldn't recover from a fall

So, tell me about...

This place?

Well, six or seven years ago...

...my girlfriend...

She sort of suggested...

...investing in old people's homes

So I decided to give it a go

It's seriously profitable

We've made a bundle

You know, Hong Kong's population is ageing

Demand is high, so we've opened more branches

Both sides of the harbour

Before you know it...

...we'll outnumber convenience stores!

Just tell me which area you need

It should be around here, I think

We've always lived here

Right, once you're used to a place...

...it's hard to die anywhere else

You and I are about the same age

It's not for you, is it? Are you okay?

No, not for me

Your mother?

No, it's for our maid

She's worked for us for 60 years

How old is she?

More than 70

You're so kind-hearted

Looking after your maid

It's touching to see

And meritorious!

Let's see...I can...

...give you a 20% discount

No charge for air-con or heating

And lower charges for escort service

We'll do all we can...

...to make her stay here pleasant

To be frank, she might well die here

Is that too blunt?

Hard to believe...

...she's been with us for 60 years

Are we there?

- Yes

- This is it?

Ms Chung Chun-Tao!

My name is Choi, I'm the supervisor, welcome!

Watch your step

It's alright, I can manage

Take it slowly

Watch your step

Take care...

Slowly...

This is where you'll be living

Sit down

Sit over there

This way...

Would you like a wheelchair?

No...

You're doing well!

We don't have many single rooms

This is the comfiest one

Sit down

Slowly

Don't stare at me

Unpack all your belongings

We'll put nametags on everything

Including your clothes, shoes and socks

That way, your things won't get lost

These are the nametags

If you have any valuables...

...take good care of them

Or you can ask us to keep them for you

But if anything gets lost...

...we're not responsible

I don't have...

That's good

Then just unpack everything

If you need help, press that buzzer

Need any help?

No

I wish everyone was like you

Take a rest first

Dinner time!

Dinner time

Open your mouth, Ma'am

Open your mouth

Swallow, Uncle

Eat up

What's the matter with you?

What the hell?

Don't you know how to eat?

Look at you! Sloppy pig...

Headmaster, let go!

What are you doing?

Look at him!

"He who hears no counsel is a scoundrel!"

You're so messy, are you crazy?

I'm giving this to you

You're new here?

I saw you come in

None of your family was with you, right?

They're all in America

These aren't my false teeth!

Who took mine?

How can I eat?

Here, these are yours

Idiot!

What should I call you?

My name is Chung Chun-Tao
