but it's been locked the past few days.

I thought you went back to your home town.

How is Tung?

He's fine. Thank you.

Really?

Hey Gau.

I've known you since you were a kid.

You're still messing around with

that black magic sh*t.

Where is Tung?

Pak, are you going to Auntie Mui's apartment?

Hi there Auntie Mui. I haven't

seen you around lately.

Is everything okay?

Everything's fine.

Tung is unwell. I need to take care of him.

He's just getting old. It's nothing.

Take care of him.

Pak!

Don't bother Uncle Tung!

It's alright. He's just a child.

Well, I'm off then.

Auntie Mui, I need to pee.

You really want to go to the bathroom?

Alright then.

I created it.

It started out as an accident.

You always warned me that

my evil ways would be within me.

My final years has been unpleasant.

Terminal stage of lung cancer.

The cigarettes I smoke

are made from ashes of the unborn.

Their yin for my yang. It's the choice I've made.

The smell coming out of Auntie Mui's apartment,

was from the preservatives.

You were in the process of

turning Tung's corpse into a vampire.

The twin ghosts

were needed to bring him back to life.

At eleven every night, you must scatter

a packet of this onto his body.

This will get rid of the smell of rotting flesh.

I will come over tonight.

The twin ghosts are different from

the unborn child.

Two lives as one. They are more potent.

I need a body that was big enough as a vessel

to hold them.

If we didn't use the mask and the oil,

Tung's corpse would have been out of control.

I never thought it would turn out like this.

Iran out of time.

Pak!

Pak!

Pak!

Pak, where are you?

Pak, where are you?

Tung was the body without the spirit.

The twins were the spirits without the body.

I'll prepare a trap in the hallway.

I'll try to attract the vampire with the corpse oil.

Go find Feng.

Be quick!

Pak...

Pak...

The twins have possessed the vampire.

It happened so fast,

they were gone blink of an eye.

Is there any way, you can help me fight?

No! If I do that, you'll f***ing die.

I should have died the first day I was here.

I still owe you my appreciation from that.

We're even now.

Let's give it a try.

Let's hope the corpse oil will attract the vampire.

Once you're inside the trap,

a cigarette is all the time you have.

Once it burns up,

you'll never be able to come back.

It's all on you now.

WATER:

WOOD:

We're running out of time!

Hurry the f*** up!

EARTH:

METAL:

FIRE:

My dear Tung,

let's leave together.

Shall we?

Trimming your toenails again?

Get to work, you burn!

Would you like pork chops, sweetie?

Help, somebody! Help!

Dr. Choy, someone's here to ID the body.

You are...?
