Episode 1

The series begins with someone getting shot. At the police station the next day, the audience sees Esther and Joyce for the first time. Apparently, Esther has been a cop for ten years and she works in the office. It's really funny at the beginning because she's bustling in and out of the office where there's a meeting, telling people to fix the air conditioning and then dragging a fan in. Joyce is at the meeting and its her first day on the job.

Before the cops are sent out to patrol the streets, Esther comes running, chasing them for the lottery money. While Joyce is patrolling with another cop, the dead body is discovered. Bobby comes to the scene munching on a sandwich and gives Joyce a look. We find out that Bobby is Joyce's uncle. Joyce's family is comprised of her uncle(Bobby), two younger sisters, and her mom. They own a tiny street café. Bobby is a gun expert at the police station.

At Esther's home, we see her family (her son & husband). She finds out that they won third prize for the lotto and is thrilled. The next day, she goes to work to pass out the money and says that Joyce is her lucky star b/c it was her numbers that won.

The following day, Joyce and another cop are out patrolling again. The other cop wants to sit and eat a little something but Joyce is reluctant. She sees two guys starting an argument with the waiter and goes up to check it out. She asks the guys for their ID and they run. She goes chasing after them and sees that one of them has a gun. One guy shoots at her in the middle of the street. They get away at the end. She gets in trouble at the police station for causing such havoc in the streets.

The case gets transferred to a different department because its so serious. Joyce has to go and talk to the people from the other dept. Marco is the team leader of that dept. Their relationship doesn't get off to a good start b/c he starts by criticizing her for her immature actions the other day.

Bobby finds out that Joyce was criticized by Marco. When he returns a report to him the next day, he makes fun of Marco.

Marco gets a whole team of people on the case. They have everything planned out to catch the guys. However, his plans are screwed up when Joyce shows up unexpectedly, patrolling the street and sees the criminals. She screams out and starts running after them and the two guys get out and open fire, killing a lot of people. Marco's team rushes out also. Marco saves Joyce from getting shot by pulling her aside. Joyce is thrown on the ground. She opens fire and shoots one of the guys on the leg.

Episode 2

One of the criminals is captured. At the hospital, Marco once again criticizes Joyce for not considering the results of her rash actions, causing so many people to get injured. Bobby stands up for her.

At home, Joyce and Bobby sneak into the house, hoping to avoid her mom. Luckily, its dark in the house and they don't see her so Bobby decides to take a seat on the couch and ends up sitting on her. Apparently, she's been sick all day and hasn't seen the news so she doesn't know that her daughter opened fire, otherwise, Joyce would be in trouble b/c her mom doesn't like her being a cop. Bobby tries to keep her from watching tv, making up lousy little excuses. But Joyce's two sisters come home and turn the tv on and Joyce is in big trouble. She gets a big lecture.

Joyce is told to do office duties for a while b/c she opened fire and she also has to see a psychiatrist.

Bobby and Esther are on the bus together. He falls asleep on her a few times so she takes her bag out and wacks him with it and smiles at him sweetly when he wakes up. They end up switching bags by accident. His bag has X-rated VCDs so Esther thinks he's a pervert. Bobby calls her to tell her where to wait but Esther's phone was broken so she couldn't hear him and ends up at the wrong place. She's late to pick up her son and he ends up missing. Bobby calls back and he goes to find her. She is pissed off at him b/c her son is missing.

He tries to help her look for him and tells her to go home b/c he might be there and indeed, her son is waiting outside the house.

That night, Esther's house has no electricity and the electrician refused to go so she went to her boss's house b/c her son needed light to study. Its really funny b/c her boss's wife calls and Estehr picks up the phone.

The next day, the bad guy goes to rescue his brother from the hospital. Marco is there waiting already. His team chases after the criminals. They hold a nurse captive. They are captured when the injured guy dies from his wound.

At the police station, Esther is cooking noodles in the office. Her boss comes in and tells her to stop cooking noodles b/c its dangerous and asks for a file. Esther drops papers by the noodles and starts a fire. Her boss extinguishes the fire with the bottled water and slips on the water and ends up on top of her. His wife walks in just then. (funny =)

Episode 3

Esther walks into the police station's canteen. Rumors spreads that there's something going on between her and her boss. She tries to clear up the misunderstandings to her co-workers but no one will believe her except Joyce.

Esther goes home and complains to her husband about the work situation. He consoles her and tells her to ignore what others say about her and her boss. The next day at the police station: Her boss is trying to ignore her. By the bosses' wife's command, Esther gets transferred out of the office and is now a police patrolling out on the streets. Esther is quite upset over this. However, at the end of the day she confronts him. He tells her he has to obey his wife's orders because her dad and uncles are high ranking police officers.

Esther complains to her husband again. She's contemplating on whether to quit the job she had for over 10 years or to find a new job. However, at the end she decides to stay because of the money. She wants to save up enough money to take the whole family to Disneyland.

Joyce receives a recognition award for being the first female to ever shoot. She gets notified that she is being transferred to SDS (another department in the police station). Esther cleans up her work place in the police station and in doing so, she takes back everything that she brought for her boss including this cushion that he sits on. (This part is pretty hilarious). Outside the police station, Esther sees Joyce and Bobby in the same car. She thinks that Bobby is Joyce's boyfriend.

Reporters all gather outside the food place that Joyce's family owns for a chance to interview her. When the reporters ask her questions, the neighborhood friends responds before she has a chance to. Bobby uses this opportunity to tell the reporters that Joyce's mom is really proud of what she has accomplished putting her mom on the spot. (Joyce's mom has always disagreed with her occupation as a cop and wants her to quit)

It is Esther's first day patrolling the streets as an officer. She complains to her co-worker that she is really tired. Her co-worker responds to her saying that it hasn't even been an hour yet. During her patrol, she encounters a rat and screams. Afterwards, she sees Bobby with Joyce's two younger sister in a clothing store. She assumes he's some type of flirt.

Previously, Bobby runs into his ex-girlfriend who tells him she is getting married. Now, Bobby is at a bar trying to get a girl. His family pounds him with questions about getting back together with his ex-girlfriend.

Marco also gets transferred to SDS and it so happens that he is Joyce's team leader. Joyce doesn't take the news contently.

Esther, her husband, and her son are enjoying their family day at ocean park. Esther picks up her husband's cell phone and tells him it's a call from his mistress. Her husband's facial expression changes drastically.

Episode 4

Esther was just joking about the phone call with her husband. Her husband begins to feel guilty of keeping a mistress in China.

Esther and her co-worker rush to the scene where a women is about to commit suicide. She tries to persuade the women not to jump off the building, but at the end she pulls the women back and receives a minor injury to her arm.

Joyce's mom wants to introduce Bobby to a girl. She offers him a set of pictures that he can select from. The next day Joyce's mom brings the girl over to the food place they own. Bobby is basically forced to take the girl home. On the way home, the girl looses her contact in Bobby's car. Bobby parks by the side of the street and helps her look also. However, Esther sees him and it seems like he's doing something inappropriate to the girl. She asks for his license and an argument erupts between them in the street. They knock the girl's purse out of her hand. They discover the girl is a prostitute. During the heated argument, Bobby forgets to pull his handbrake on his car. His car rolls down the street and hits the fire hydrant. Inside the police station, the argument continues and Joyce settles it. Esther finds out that Bobby is her uncle. (This part is really funny. Esther asks for the girls ID and Bobby tells the girl she doesn't have to show it. They argue back and forth).

Marco has an operation. During the operation, Joyce chases after some prostitute by climbing up the side of some building. Marco scolds her about her dangerous behavior. He tells her that men can perform dangerous activities but women can't. Joyce is really upset by this.

Esther is learning how to cook for her husband. Her husband is feeling guiltier and guiltier by the moment about keeping a mistress. Her husband wants her to be more independent but she says she has him to lean on. Esther also gets transferred to SDS and is very happy about not having to wear the police uniform. Joyce complains to Esther about Marco. The team has an operation: Esther dresses up like a prostitute to attract men. When these men approach her, other members of her team arrest them. Esther extols herself for still having the beauty to attract 5 men.

Esther's husband comes home telling her he wants a divorce. She has a shock expression on her face.

Episode 5

Esther's husband asks for a divorce. He says that he's really tired, and that marrying her was more like having a daughter than a wife. He's willing to give her the house and custody of their son. Esther is devastated.

Joyce goes to Esther's house to find her b/c she didn't show up for work. She finds Esther hiding in her room, under the covers, crying. She tells Joyce that her husband wants a divorce.

Esther goes to find her husband and finds out that he has another woman and that woman is pregnant. Esther leaves and when she gets home, her son is throwing a tantrum b/c he wants his dad. Esther tells him that he's not coming back.

Marco's team has another "so wong" function. One of the guys they catch tells them that he has a wife and doesn't want to get in trouble. When Esther hears this, she starts smacking the guy. Another guy is hiding in the closet and runs out later. Joyce, Marco, and another team member chase after him but Marco grabs Joyce just as she's about to jump off the building after the guy. Joyce gets pissed b/c she thinks Marco is discriminating against women again.

Bobby's friend gets arrested during the function. Marco questions him.

Marco's team go out for a drink and they talk about Joyce, about how she's too tough and not like a girl. They all go to Marco's house and see his girlfriend, Crystal, there. The next day, Marco and Crystal run into his dad. (They seem overly polite to each other--I'm on episode 12 and they still don't explain their politeness). They go to his parents' house for dinner.

Marco's team is having another function. They are watching Sum Zhe's men. Apparently, Bobby's friend (the one that got arrested) is working for her. Later, Marco and one of the teammates go out for a midnight snack and they see Bobby and his friend. They almost get into a fight.

Episode 6

Bobby argues with his friend, trying to persuade him to get serious and find a good job. Joyce is waiting for Bobby at his house to talk to him b/c she saw him with his friend (one of the guys working for Sum Zhe). Bobby tells Joyce that his friend has a kind heart. He's not whom he appears to be.

Esther and another teammate are following another one of Sum Zhe's men. He sees them and tries to escape so Esther and the other cop separate to go and find him. Esther gets into some trouble with the village people and they start chasing after her with brooms and sticks. She and the other cop get beaten up. Heehee.

Esther is having problems with her son at home.

The next day, Esther wants to apologize to the other cop so she goes to the cafetaria to get coffee and sandwiches for everyone. Bobby sees her there and is still angry at her so he puts hot sauce into all the drinks while she's not looking. Her teammates think she doesn't want to buy the drinks and is being evil. She runs downstairs and yells at Bobby. She runs out crying. Her teammates are outside the cafetaria and they yell at Bobby for being so inconsiderate.

Esther's son sneaks out and goes to the arcade. He sees Bobby there and they play a video game together (one with guns). Esther's son follows Bobby and they go out to eat hamburgers. They become good friends.

Marco and Crystal go to his parents for dinner. His parents devise a plan to rent their apartment downstairs to Crystal so that they can see their son more. But the plan fails b/c Crystal doesn't want to live close to them.

Bobby is speaking to Esther's son on the phone and his two nieces and Joyce's mom thinks that its a girl.

There's another function…Marco's team is chasing after one of Sum Zhe's men. The guy knocks Marco down. Joyce saves him.

Episode 7

Marco captures this guy who admits to being the head of the prostitution ring. However, in reality a women named "Sum Zhe" is behind everything. At the police station: Everyone else is busy doing something but Esther falls asleep and snores. Marco tells Esther that she is slacking off and encourages her to do better knowing that she has some family problems. He doesn't blame her at all. Joyce continues to complain about Marco to Esther. However, Esther thinks otherwise and praises him instead. Outside the police station, Marco thanks Joyce for saving his life. The whole team (which is all guys excluding Esther) goes out to Dim Sum. Joyce's attitude about Marco has taken a whole new turn. During Dim Sum, Joyce and Marco are engaged in a conversation about all these different sports that they have participated in.

Bobby takes Esther's son out to play and eat. When Bobby takes the little boy home he is very depressed. Bobby tells him to do well in school and in return Esther's son tells Bobby that he is very handsome. (This part was really cute). Esther doesn't have enough money to pay off all of the bills. As a result, she takes his son's money to help out. Her son is upset at her. The next day at the police station: Esther receives a phone call from her son's teacher regarding her son's absence from ballet class. Esther returns home and scolds her son. The next day Esther finds money missing from her apartment. She believes that her son took the money to buy a play gun and yells and hits him. Her son runs over to Bobby's family owned food place. Esther chases after her son. Inside the food place Bobby and Esther have a huge quarrel over her son. (At the same time they are pulling the little boy back and forth - very funny). Esther gets really upset and leaves. When she returns home, she finds many other items in her apartment missing. Esther realizes that the maid was the culprit. Esther apologizes to her own son and blames herself for being too ignorant. Joyce tries to console her, but is unsuccessful. Upon seeing the situation, Bobby also tries to help her.

At Joyce's apartment: His three nieces and sister-in-law scolds Bobby for being so mean to Esther. They won't let him eat dinner.

Bobby's friend who works for "Sum Zhe" wants to bail this girl out of her prostitution ring. "Sum Zhe" wants $200,000 for the girl but he doesn't have the money. After some thought, Bobby's friend decides to help Marco. He decides to testify against "Sum Zhe" and gives Marco information on her whereabouts.

Episode 8

Marco and his other team members reveal their identity to "Sum Zhe" and her men. "Sum Zhe and her men start firing at the police trying to escape. During the shoot out, "Sum Zhe's husband dies". Joyce thanks Marco for saving her life. (This part is really exciting)

Bobby's friend becomes a witness. He wants to start a whole new life with the girl prostitute that he loves. Bobby acts like he's reprimanding his friend, but in reality he's happy that his friend wants to change for the better because of Marco's influence.

The polices' operation continues. Marco and his team are still out to capture "Sum Zhe" and two of her men who had escaped the last time. Their operation is still unsuccessful. "Sum Zhe" wants revenge on Marco and Joyce for the death of her husband. Therefore, "Sum Zhe" and her two men shoot a bullet through the window of the police building where Marco's team worked. Other team members come rushing into the office only to find Esther hiding under her desk and shaking. Esther is wounded slightly on her arm and turns kind of hysterical. She is afraid to die because she still has a son to care for. Bobby who works under the firearms department comes to retrieve the bullets that "Sum Zhe" and her men fired to determine what type of gun they used. After performing some tests, Bobby is still indecisive about what type of guns they used. However, he did notify Marco that the bullets contain poison which could kill a person on the spot if hit.

Outside the police station: While driving Bobby sees Esther who is about to faint. He asks if she needed any help and she replies no but then faints. Bobby takes her home and tells her what types of food is good her because she told him she has low blood pressure.

Marco's boss is upset about the shooting incident that took place in the police station. At the end of the day, Marco offers to take Joyce home, but along the way they stop by a fishball stand to eat. Then he realizes that he has a dinner date with his girlfriend and is very late so he calls a cab for Joyce instead. After dinner, Marco and his girlfriend go out for a walk and he proposes to her.

Joyce tries to hide from her mother because she is afraid that her mother already found out about the shooting incident that took place at the police station. Her mother complains about having some heart problems, but in reality she is fine. She just wants Joyce to quit her job.

Bobby goes over to Esther's apartment to help take care of her son without her knowing. While he was over at her place, he cleaned, fixed some of her appliances, and cooked some soup for her. Bobby tells her son to say that he did everything all by himself b/c he wants to be a good boy. When Esther comes home, she questions her son about who cooked the soup, who fixed the air condition, etc. Her son replies that he cooked the soup, but that she fixed everything else. Now, Esther believes that she did all this when she was sleep walking.

Esther hands Marco a letter of resignation, but Marco tells her he will keep it for the time being. Bobby warns Marco about the new type of gun that "Sum Zhe" and her men are using. Marco receives news of the whereabouts of "Sum Zhe" and her two men. They rush to the place. Marco orders Esther to stay outside while the rest of the team enters the place. "Sum Zhe" and her men lock Marco's team inside. She has planted a bomb that is ready to explode within a couple of minutes.

Episode 9

The bomb has only a few minutes left before its going to explode. Esther is still in the car. She hides lower when she sees Sum Zhe's car passing by. Esther rushes to the storage place where the rest of her team is locked up. Marco throws his gun out from a hole and tells Esther to shoot the chain because it is impossible to open up the storage place from the inside. Esther misses the first 2 shots from makes the third one and shoots the chain off. Seconds later, the bomb explodes. Bobby is rushing to the scene and he calls Joyce. She tells him that they're ok. As he is driving, he sees Sum Zhe's car passing by so he follows her and tellsJoyce where she's headed. Marco's team quickly follows.

Another cop on a motorcycle sees Sum Zhe's car and she runs him over. Bobby tries to save him and Sum Zhe takes out a bazooka (a humongous gun) and shoots the hood off of Bobby's car. Marco and his team arrive. Sum Zhe holds another cop hostage and tells them to put all their guns down and they do. She aims to take a shot at Marco to avenge her husband's death but Bobby shoots her and saves Marco. Sum Zhe realizes that she has no chance so she commits suicide.

The next day, Marco's team is praised for their efforts. Marco wants to thank Bobby for saving him. He sees Bobby headed for the men's room so he follows Bobby in. (This part is sooooooo funny) Bobby is standing there peeing and Marco couldn't quite get the words out while Bobby was peeing. Bobby gives Marco a funny look (a look that says why the heck are you watching me urinate). Marco quickly thanks him and leaves. Later that night, Bobby tells Joyce about the bathroom incident =)

Bobby is at Esther's house, helping her clean and watching after her son again. He hears Esther so he hides but Esther sees his jacket. They get into an argument.

Esther wants to get her resignation letter back. Her teammates know that Marco destroyed the letter already but they play a joke on her.

Joyce's mom is even more fearful now because of the bombing. She thinks of a plan to marry Joyce off.

Bobby's birthday is coming up. Even though he doesn't have a date, he acts like a lot of people want to go out with him.

Joyce's mom sets up a "toa fa zhen" in her room (this is something superstitious where she puts a red string, red hearts, and a red blanket in Joyce's room. It's supposed to help her find a boyfriend.) Bobby and Joyce both laugh at it but when Bobby gets into his room, he sets up his own "toa fa zhen" (haaahaaa).

Bobby calls everyone from his old phone book to find a date but he can't find anyone. He wanders the streets sees a fortune teller who tells him that if he can't find a wife by the time he's 40, he's going to be lonely forever. Later, he goes to a restaurant for dinner by himself but runs into Esther and her son. They laugh at another guy who the waiters are singing a birthday song to. But then the waiters come with his birthday cake and sing to him. Esther and her son start cracking up while Bobby's denying that its his birthday. She gives him a pack a cookies for his birthday and he's sooooo happy =)

Marco and Joyce run into each other at a karate place and they wrestle each other. Later they go to his house to watch a soccer game.

Esther decides that she wants to get a gun so she has to take the test. During her practice sessions, her whole hand is shaking nonstop b/c she's so weak. In fact, she's so weak that she can't even pull the trigger so she tells her instructer. Her instructor tells her to hand him the gun and she points it at him …heehee. He yells at her. At the police station cafetaria, it's even funnier. She's eating with her team and her hand is shaking so badly that she can't even pick up the food. Everyone gives her advice.

Bobby takes Esther and her son to play paintball so she can practice. He also gives her tips on shooting. The day of the test comes. She has to make 48/60 shots. She misses the first 2.

He calls Crystal later that night and she confesses that she got back together with her ex-boyfriend. They break up. Marco is really sad. He runs into Joyce the next day and they go out for a drink. He tells her about breaking up with Crystal and she tries to comfort him. He gets drunk and she has to drag him home. She puts him in bed and he grabs her hand by mistake. (heeehee, Joyce is falling for Marco)

She wonders who the girl can be and sneaks into his house to look for the girl, but Esther has already left with her son. Joyce's mom discovers a string of long hair on the couch and questions Bobby.

Joyce's family members and their past teammates at SDS came to celebrate this event with them. However, Marco was unable to attend because of court appearance for some other case making Joyce very disappointed. Meanwhile, Joyce's mom is scrutinizing all of Joyce's male teammates trying to deduce who her boyfriend is. Bobby sees Joyce's mom unusual behavior and asks her if she is looking for another male companion. Later that night, Joyce's mom asks her why she isn't going out with her friends to celebrate. She replies that she's really tired and is going to bed soon, but the minute that she receives a phone call from Marco, she leaves. Marco treats her out to eat and while they are walking they come to a stand selling cheap flashlights. Marco purchases two and gives one to Joyce.

Joyce wants to visit Marco so she gets his other teammates to go with her so she'll be inconspicuous. However, no one has time to go but Joyce manages to drag one of Marco's teammates, "Kwun Lo" to go. When Marco sees them, he's like why are you guys visiting again? He says jokingly to "Kwun Lo" that others might think they're gay b/c he's visiting so much. "Kwun Lo" wants to leave but Joyce is dragging onto him b/c she doesn't want to be alone with Marco and Marco misinterprets this as Joyce liking "Kwun Lo". After "Kwun Lo" leaves, Joyce takes Marco out for a walk in his wheelchair. They play basketball with his neighbors.

At the police station, Joyce calls "Kwun Lo" and his other teammates think that Joyce likes him. Joyce gives him 2 movie tickets for driving her to Marco's house and he misinterprets and thinks that Joyce indeed does like him. Marco's leg gets better. He goes to a bar with his other 2 teammates and Esther. They talk about Joyce and "Kwun Lo" and Marco devises a plan to get Joyce and "Kwun Lo" together (he doesn't know that Joyce likes him and not "Kwun Lo").

Marco wraps his leg up again when Joyce visits him. He gives her a movie ticket and tells her to tell him what the movie was about after she's seen the movie. Marco's dad overhears and tells Marco that Joyce likes him. Marco laughs at this. At the movie theatre, "Kwun Lo" sees Joyce sitting next to him. Joyce drags him out of the theatre and finds out that Marco gave him the ticket too. "Kwun Lo" tells her that he already has a girlfriend. "Kwun Lo" figures out that she likes Marco. Joyce threatens to beat him up if he tells Marco that she likes him.

At the PTU police station, Joyce and Esther find out that they're getting transferred back to Marco's team again. Joyce ignores Marco when she sees him.

A dead body is found. The dead body is cut into pieces and apparently it's a person who's had a sex change (upper body is female, lower half is male---the person didn't finish undergoing surgery yet.) The team goes out to eat steak but Joyce refuses to go b/c Marco's going. At dinner, Marco insists that Joyce is acting differently towards him.

Bobby hears on the news that Esther's housing area has no water so he drags a few gallons of water for her. She hides when she sees him. At night, she thinks about him and is very touched by everything he's done for her.

The team goes to the dead person's house, hoping to find more evidence. Esther is searching the kitchen and finds the head in the freezer and screams loudly. She throws up in the bathroom.

Bobby finds out that Esther was scared and buys her all these things to ease her fright and leaves it outside her door. However, he leaves his umbrella behind. Esther sees him outside in the rain when she looks out of her window. She calls him to thank him and invites him out to dinner. Before Esther leaves for dinner the next day, she gets a call from the hospital saying that her husband was in a car accident.

Marco's team continues investigating the murder case. They find out that the dead guy has a girlfriend and a boyfriend. Joyce and "Kwun Lo" get paired up as a team. He drives her home after work but Joyce realizes that she forgot her keys and goes back to the police station for them. She runs into Marco. They get a call from the dead person's doorman, claiming he has more evidence so Joyce and Marco stop by. On the way home, they go out for a midnight snack. Joyce is still angry at him so when he says that he doesn't like the fruit "lau leen", she buys a whole one and shoves it into his mouth. He ends up liking it and even buys one home for his parents =)

Esther goes to visit her husband and finds out that he's still wearing his wedding ring. He asks for another chance but Esther leaves. At home, Esther thinks about her husband and their past. When Bobby calls, asking her to go and see a movie, she rejects him. Bobby is very sad.

Esther visits her husband again and finds out that he just left. She sees him outside and tells him to go back to their house since he has nowhere to stay (Esther is still indecisive at this point about what she really wants to do). Bobby goes to find her to ask her why she's been giving him the cold shoulder. Her husband walks out of the house just then and Bobby leaves, devastated.

At the police station, they're still investigating the case. Joyce and Marco are the only ones there but "Kwun Lo" walks in and drags Joyce out into the hall. He has a favor to ask her. Marco peeks out and sees "Kwun Lo" with his arm around her and he's kind of jealous.

Later, Marco and 2 of the other team members see "Kwun Lo" and Joyce walking into a bridal shop. From the look on his face, he appears to be jealous. They assume that Joyce is marrying "Kwun Lo".

Marco sees "Kwun Lo" again the next day walking into the same bridal shop, but with another woman this time. He gets pissed and calls "Kwun Lo" out for a talk.

Joyce returns home to find Bobby sitting on the couch and starring at the T.V., but not paying much attention to the soccer game. Her younger sister is searching all over the house for her book and Joyce sees that Bobby is sitting on it. This causes a spark to go off in Joyce's head and she rushes back to the butcher's apartment for a second search hoping that she missed something in her first search. Joyce runs into Marco there who is also looking for evidence. They find a small drop of the dead guy's blood behind some cabinet. The team has enough evidence to charge the pig butcher with first degree murder. The pig butcher spills everything out to them. (why and how he killed the guy)

The team celebrates the solved case by going over to Marco's parents house to eat dinner. Marco's mom has saved some food behind for Joyce since she hasn't shown up yet. Marco's mom offers the fruit "Lau Leen" for desert. Everyone declines saying that Joyce is the only one who likes it. "Kwun Lo" passes out his wedding invitations and the team is shocked when they don't see Joyce's name on the invitation.

As a result, she yells back at him.

After "Kwun Lo" wedding dinner, Marco is the only one left to take Joyce home. When they get into his car, Marco tries to explain that he has feeling for her and that he would like her to be his girlfriend, but Joyce jumps out of the car not wanting to hear.

Several hours have passed but there is no news of them. Marco says that the only thing they can do is wait for "Lip Sai Foon" to call. Marco and another policemen have installed a phone device at Bobby's apartment awaiting for "Lip Sai Foon" to call so that they can trace the call. The phone rings early the next morning and when he first answers the phone he hears Esther's voice but her voice is replaced by "Lip Sai Foon" who tells him to go to some restaurant.

Marco discovers some kind of meat store stamp on him and narrows down the search. They know that Esther and Joyce are being hidden in a freezer of some sort but have not pinpointed the exact location. The police continue their searches on all freezers and just then Bobby remembers a fire trucks siren going off when "Lip Sai Foon" called earlier.

Meanwhile, Joyce and Esther are trying to keep their mind off the cold by jogging, telling each other funny past childhood stories, and playing games (the game show that zheng zhi wai is a host of). Before they pass out, they tell each other they miss their boyfriends.

The team arrives at the freezer where the 2 are kept. Marco takes Joyce and warms her up by rubbing her, while Bobby is trying to warm up Esther. Marco tells Joyce that he is going to marry her and that he loves who she is. Joyce awakens hearing all that Marco has said to her. Esther has not awaken yet. Bobby carries her down several flights of stairs to take her to the hospital but falls down the stairs with her. She tells Bobby that he should tell her the romantic things that Marco said to Joyce. (This part is really funny)
