Sophie's Revenge (2009) - full transcript

Dumped by her fiancé just two months before their wedding, comic strip writer Sophie hatches an elaborate plan to get her Jeff back and punish the movie star, Joanna, who seduced him away. She finds herself a partner, Gordon, an ex-lover of Joanna's, and the two start on a comic adventure full of laughs and tears, aided by Sophie's two best friends, Lucy and Lily. At the eve of her success, Sophie suddenly realizes that she has been so focused on revenge that she has not heard her own change of heart.

Sophie's Revenge

Don't move

Miss Sophie

At last, I've caught you

You know

These comic books of yours

are poisoning women's views of love
and marriage nowadays

You go too far

and you dare to write in your books

Women can only...

What was it?



What?

Only by discovering herself

can a woman ever find true love

I heard he's come back

Miss Sophie

Don't drink so fast

You were saying this is
your first comic fiction?

The title is very interesting

"Handbook of Love"

I'm sure the audience

is curious to hear about

the story behind this "Handbook of Love"

How should I answer them

Could I tell them



this is all because of 2 years ago

I made the stupidest mistake of my life

When I was young, my mother told me

a woman in love is foolish

but a woman rejected is crazy

But I didn't understand

until 2 winters ago

My mother also said

men must choose the right career
and women marry the right guy

What she meant was

a woman's job is to find Mr. Right

So to be successful

you have to find that special guy

Hold on

You must have misunderstood...

This is me, hanging outside

A loser

stalking my ex-boyfriend

and his new lover

a famous actress

Joanna

having a good time

You okay?

Sorry

I didn't see you

Look out!

C'mon, it's not that scary

Come watch it with me

This is Joanna's horror movie

You like it?

Leaving my gifts all over the place

Serves you right

Give me a kiss

I'll help you up

C'mon

I caught you again

Didn't we agree no eating after 10pm

You little piggy

Friends, you see this?

This is the pain of breaking up

Slowly torturing me

with all that used to be mine

My memories of Jeff

are countless parasites

crawling, crawling

crawling, crawling

crawling all over me

Looking for the vulnerable

infected veins

sucking wantonly

sucking dry

my hopes and dreams

You're awake

Your fever's gone down

Good thing I decided to break in

otherwise you'd be a goner

You scared me to death

Thought you would never wake up

You two, stop watching for fun

you, fold those clothes

you over there

wipe up the furniture and windows...
3 times

Yes, ma'am

Your life isn't over
because you got dumped

Don't let some jerk

ruin your life

It's not worth it

Lucy

how come smart women can't get hitched

Because they're all like you

full of themselves

You done?

I told you Sophie and Jeff didn't match

Breaking up

was only a matter of time

Don't kick her when she's down

You're saying that
because you are jealous

I don't care

So what if he has the goods

Who cares?!

He's not my type

Lucy!

Just speak one language please

Either Chinese or English

You're giving me a headache

It's not my fault you flunked English...

These are my 2 best friends

Lucy and Lily

Just don't know why

as soon as they meet, they argue

but they still hang out together

Lucy

my agent

single forever

boyfriend in and out

but my mother would think

she's a failure

As for Lily

before graduating college

she was already way into her "career"

becoming the most "successful" among us

No matter what

I love them both

because they love me too

You.. shut up!

You... shut up!

I heard that Joanna

goes through boyfriends like toilet paper

Her last one

was some Taiwanese photographer

Honey

it's hopeless

You think you can just quit like that?

It's not that simple

You should rescue Jeff from the fire

He has ready jumped into the fire
and you want to "rescue" him?

You just don't get it

Don't be ridiculous

Nobody understands them better than me

Next, please join me in recalling

the highlights of their relationship

Please watch the big screen

2 years ago

Sophie was just out of college

studying to become a comic book artist

had an attack of appendicitis

But luckily

she met the perfect surgeon, Jeff Li

He removed her appendix

and in return

gave her his heart

However

the good times didn't last

Just last week

in the very same hospital room

the same love story repeated

But this time, the female
lead was not Sophie

but rather it was

the famous movie star

Joanna

But if you ask me

if you insist

all is fair in love

profession or not

is not important

Get her!

This is nonsense

Stop it! Stop!

I'm the one who understands Sophie

Ok, go for it

Sophie

from a very young age
has always been competitive

Once she set up her mind

she never fails

If you ask me,
this set back is only temporary

I believe

you'll get over Jeff in no time

Go Go Go

Look at you... why are you crying?

If my mom finds out I've been dumped

she'll kill herself

Sophie, where have you been?

I've been looking for you for days

You're not even answering your phone

Sophie!

I'm sick

I'll come see you this weekend

This weekend I have to draw

I have a deadline

That won't do

There is so much to be done right now

Book the restaurant, get the cake

arrange for wedding photos

What did you say

I can't say anything. Got to go, bye!

No way

I want to prove to the world

that I'm good enough for Jeff

I will get him back before the wedding

That's my girl

I support you

You two are nuts

Why'd you want to marry a guy like that

Sophie

Sorry, I was wrong

Please marry me

No!

If that's what you want,
you have my support too

I'm not going to support you

I won't do anything else

I don't believe I can't win him back

You won't do anything else?

What about the book proposal
you'd promised me?

If we delay any more

the publishers will cancel the deal

Guy's gone. Why bother?

What if I tell the story of my revenge

in the new book

Are you sure?

I'm not sure this is a good idea

You sure?

No problem

I shall prove to broken heart people
everywhere

We can win our ex's back

using "scientific" methods

I know

they all think I'm crazy

then, why do I feel so good

After tossing about all night

I came up with my first move

Strategy #1: Forgive His Trespasses

No matter how badly he stepped on you

you shall only show him tenderness

and forgive him

with a smile in your heart

Because

as long as he's happy

you're happy

So beautiful

When Jeff sees you today

he'll regret for sure

You will overwhelm him with kindness

he will be touched by you

You're so sexy

you will win for sure

Your clothes are so beautiful

I love it

Dr. Li

the patient in bed 3 will discharge today

What are you doing here

Honey

ever since you left me

my heart has been hurt

But

I'm happy for you

because you are happy

therefore, I am happy too

Sophie

I was wrong

forgive me

Let's start over again

Young lady

What's your name?

How can I reach you?

What are you doing?
Are you okay?

Grandpa, are you hurt?

You crazy...?!

I'm so sorry! Sorry!

Grandpa, you okay?

Sorry!

Hurry!! At the front....

Sorry Why do you run in the hospital?

Sorry, let me pick them up for you

So many medications

You should not be like that Come back

I am a photographer

I got prizes in my county Honey

Don't say anything

Stay like that I take photos for you
Honey

Don't say anything
It is so painful Must be good

Sorry

What are you doing

What are you doing Honey

Help

Sorry

Honey

ShuLing Don't run ShuLing

You put it down

Get away

Darling

Honey

Honey You idiot

ShuLing ShuLing

Darling Darling

I'm a father I'm a father

Don't move! Hold her down

You need to calm down

One shot and you're gonna be just fine

Stop

I know her

Sophie

What are you doing here?

What do you think I'm doing here?

You think I'm here to congratulate you?

In your dreams

This is all your fault

You have the nerve to ask me that

Look at me! The state I'm in...

this is all because of you

Sophie

I was wrong

Just go home

I'll take care of things here

Let's go. Go

The doctor said I didn't break anything

Excuse me

Creep

Just have a look and know he' s a bad guy

Go

When a mare was in heat

a stallion will take hold of a territory

No other can trespass

After the heat period

they will go back to their herd

A woman's stomach is the best friend
with her heart

Always adjusting itself to
the heart's condition

When a woman loses her love

her heart starts to leak

then the stomach tries to help to
stop the leak

by stuffing the leak with everything

to compensate for the loss

until..

Hello?

Christmas party?

I'm not going

Drink up

It'll make you feel better...

Check it out

Cute guys everywhere tonight

Any you like

Okay, I'll get the cutest one for you

No interest

Honey

Let me introduce you to my friend

Excuse me

Gordon...

Sophie...

Little lamb

Hello

Show your beautiful face

Let him have a look

You guys know each other?

No

Gordon is a photographer from Taiwan

He's new in town

Maybe you can show him around

What?

Let's go, I'm thirsty

That was the crazy girl
I was talking about

She?

Cheers!

My skirt. My skirt...

Sorry, sorry

Give that to me

Sorry, excuse me... she is drunk

Let' go

Stop moving

We're all tied up

Let's have another...

Gordon

Hey, Jeff

What do you think you're doing?

You know him?

Met him recently

He's a surgeon who just came back from US

Don't even think about it

He's out of your league

Yeah

great at making people suffer

You know him well?

my...ex

Are you crazy

Hey

Stop being that crazy

It's hot here

Thanks

Stop drinking

I'm gonna to find your friend Lucy

Hold on

How annoying

Why are you on top of me?

I'm trying to unbutton

Unbutton? Don't get fresh with me

We're entangled

Let me help

Don't move, just don't move

Hurry up! My legs are getting numb

My God!

Miss Sophie

I can totally get
how you feel right now

but the relationships
are really complicated

So when people break up
it's best to be open minded

Have a more

tolerate attitude is better

I'm telling you this

because I know Joanna quite well

and she is really not a bad person

If...

Sorry, sorry!

Looks like

you know her pretty well

Ok, that's enough

Did you drive?

Are you that photographer from Taiwan?

Yeah, and what if I am?

I thought I was the only victim

but there's you too

Excellent to meet you

Spit it out and share with me

Let's go

You're just pretending to be happy

Enough, don't make a fuss, Miss Sophie

I think you misunderstood

The 2 of us

should be a team

win-win!

You should go home

I've taken her on already

Yeah? Doesn't seem like
it went well for you

Just you wait, for later I've got more...

Don't throw up!

It's an emergency!

Really urgent

Hold it, hold it

My mom always said

smart people are not afraid of failure

because failure is for the weak

And I

am not weak

I shall go forth bravely

growing from my failures

push forward unrelentingly

until reaching the final victory

Men are lazy

so they never discard anything

not even a woman who has betrayed him

Too lazy to even erase the memory

Not true

You're not qualified to say it

You abandoned me and your daughter

for some bar girl

Don't confuse Sophie

just because of us

I tell you

So that means

I can fully exploit this weakness in men

To remind Jeff that

a new relationship

is not match for the old familiar one

That way, he'll definitely think twice

and return to me
Strategy #2 The Glorious Past

About the other day

I didn't really mean what I said

It's okay

I have some things to return to you

When are you going to be home?

Not till really late tonight

I could come pick them up
from your place?

Didn't you say we were going home now?

Yeah, but if I had said that

then she'd come over right away

Don't be mad

Strategy #2 The Glorious Past

Use objects and phrases to
bring back memories

Even some pet phrases

bring back good memories of the past

Reminding him that

the past is far better than the present

What'll we do after dinner tonight?

Whatever you want?

Actually I'm a bit tired

It would be good to stay at home

Okay

What's wrong?

Why don't...

we go out to eat?

No

Didn't you say

you will cook noodles for me?

Little piggy!

What a cute little piggy

For me?

No.. I gave it to Sophie

No wonder

Smells of cheap perfume

Disgusting

How come her stuff is here?

Maybe she has dropped by

What?

Joanna

Don't be upset

How can I not be angry?

She still has the key of your place

We need to change the locks

Let's go out and talk

Why?

Can't we talk at home?

It's not that

Are you worried that
she bugged the place?

The neighbor might hear

I'm not afraid of anything

I have nothing to be ashamed of

I just wonder

Why don't we just go out and chat?

What were you thinking?

How could you fall for such an

Unreliable and unbalanced woman?

What do you have to say for yourself?

C'mon, let's go out
for a walk and cool off

Cool off? I'm just getting warmed up

For real

you're already broke up

and she's still coming by your house

Why are you going into the bedroom?

Why are you shouting for?

Aren't you scared the neighbors
will hear that?

So. Does she come here often?

And it's not the first time right?

How could that be? Let's go,
I'm begging you

I'm not going. I'm tired

Why are you going to the bathroom?

I have to pee

Sophie

Are you here?

Come on! Let's go

You scared me

I'm not hungry

I'm starving, please Let's go

You've gotta be kidding

You look fine, why change?

I have a public image to maintain

She's simply unbelievable!

We have to change all our things

Tell the maid to clean thoroughly

These sheets have to be changed

She could have laid on them.
Okay, let's go

What? Strategy #2
The Glorious Past To be continued

You should tell her firmly

to stay away from you

She's not your girlfriend anymore

Hello? Gordon, hold on a second

Can't believe
she would break into your home

It's so creepy

You should call the police

Get in the car

Hey Gordon

I'll call you later

Hello? Hello?

Although it didn't go as smoothly
as I'd imagined

as my Mom used to say

a loss can turn out to be a gain

I believe good luck
is right around the corner

Hello?

Hi, this is Gordon

Is Sophie there?

Gordon

Wow, nice

Beautiful.... Beautiful

Let's me see that line now

So tempting

I'm drooling over here

Sexy, sexy

A little bit to the left

Hey! Where'd did you come from?

It took me over 2 hours to make that

That's it, I quit!

Were you serious about what you said

at the party about taking revenge
on Joanna?

You've made up your mind?

You're definitely going to break them up?

Whatever it takes?

And no matter the outcome?

But I think... actually...

I think it is not right

Don't interrupt, just listen

I have thought it for a long time

I will put bottles

in all over her rooms, every room

You listen to me, listen to me

I have many ways...

Winter is coming

I will turn off all
the water pipes of her home

Joanna is going to publish a book

Really, she is going to publish a book

It is about her
experience of taking movies

She can't only be 23 years old

When I was in high school
she was already 23

and that was like 10 years ago

What, I'm aging and she's not

Which kindergarten did she go to?

That's rich!
You've been sleeping the whole time

All this time,
and you've not given a single idea

Who says I haven't?
You didn't give me a chance

Okay, we're here

Okay, good night

Here you go, keep the change

Okay, so now's your chance

Go ahead

Now? Little Alex

Don't expect too much

I'm not a good cook

So much food

Bon appetite

Why be so modest about your cooking

Jeff always said
I didn't cook well enough

What's wrong?

Are you really Little Alex

Didn't your mother ever tell you

It's impolite

to go flipping through things
at people's homes?

You know, I've read your books before

Really?

But I'd always assumed it was a guy

How come?

Because your stories

seem to have such a male's view on things

It's hard to believe

it came from a girl like you

I guess what I'm saying is..

what you express in your books

that kind of unconventional thinking

doesn't really match
your behavior these days

For example?

Dumped by your boyfriend

and still stalking him

Don't you think it's a bit petty?

Finished eating?

C'mon, don't be mad

I just don't understand

how such a great girl like you

can't just let go

If I were so great why did I get dumped?

Maybe

it's just not meant to be

Maybe you're not supposed to be with Jeff

Who said I wanted to be with him
my whole life

Then why are you doing this?

Isn't it because you love him

I loved him

because I thought he loved me even more

I thought he could give me

simple, steady love

something that would last forever

But

that's really not
a good reason to love somebody

Did you ever think?

Maybe that's not what Jeff wants?

Maybe his idea of love

is a crazy

passionate

reckless kind of love

Then why didn't he say something earlier?

Why wait till
I've got my wedding gown ready,

sent out all invitations?

All my friends knew I was getting married

and then he went and changed his mind

Better than getting married
and then divorced, right?

So you know it all now,

you got dumped too, right?

Alright, don't be angry

Remember, we are partners

Let's not attack each other

Tell me your next plan
Lesson 3# Extreme Makeover

Hello?

Guess who I saw? Success

When I was little,
I had a dog just like this

His name was Little Alex

We were best friends

I had him for 10 years

Buy another then

Who has time for that?

Besides,

pets are just a distraction

That's what Jeff used to say

Let's go and play with him

So lovely

I'm tired.. Time to go home

Go home?

I thought we were going to see Joanna's
new horror movie

I'm not going

I'm seeing her tomorrow

She will ask me if I've seen it

Horror movie? Are you joking?

I wouldn't even go with Jeff

Hey, aren't we partners?

I've been helping you all day

Come on, let's go

I don't want to go

Don't worry, let's go

C'mon, just try it out

I'm really tired

It should be good, I'm not lying

I am exhausted

Not to that extend

Joanna is much bolder than you

Of course she is

She's not human

I think you're hungry.

Dinner's ready, let's eat

Coming

No man has ever

cooked for me

My parents passed away

when my little sister was only 3

I had to take care of her

You know when I was 3

my dad ran off with another woman

You know what?

You're actually quite photogenic

from a certain angle anyway

Is that what you photographers
say to pick up girls?

What are you talking about?

I haven't shot portraits in years

Really?

I just saw a bunch of portraits
in you other room

Those are all leftovers
from an exhibition 5 years ago

You've had exhibitions?

Don't tell me you're a famous artist

No. Only a so called master maybe

Yeah

I've signed the book contract

When can I see the draft?

How could she have any time for that?

She's dating

No wonder you are glowing

He's just a regular friend

Really?

If you say so..

Not bad

Not bad, quite nice

Red light

Cute guy

You ladies seem to be having fun

I'd also like to buy this car

Its design and performance
are both excellent

I quite like it

However,

I still want to further understand its

performance

Wait for me

Slut

You're jealous again

No way

Me?! Jealous of her?

My husband is handsome and rich and so
in love with me

How could I possibly be jealous of her?

Lily's husband does in fact
have a lot of money

But, as to how handsome,
or how in love with her

She knows best of all

Dick!

I like this one, buy it for me

Dick!

What are you doing? Who the hell is she?

What the hell do you say about me?

Is she.....

Dick!

What?

You dare seduce my husband!

What are you thinking of?

Wanna come shopping with me after this

I can't

I'm going to the gym

What?

The gym

Woman, thy name is fickle

How about I teach you to play ball

I can teach you something else

Okay, call me when you are ready

I don't like going to the gym

because there are too many mirrors

But in order to get to know Joanna

and implement my 4th move

of "Befriend thy enemy"
going to the gym

this is the only choice Strategy #4
"Befriend Thy Enemy"

Hey

Miss...

Hey!

This is my towel

I have one just like it

Okay, it's time. C'mon

Let's dance

Just like last time

Okay, y'all remember what we did, right?

1, 2, 3 let's go and 1, 2, 3 and 4

and 1, 2, 3 and 4 and 1, 2, 3 and 4 and

... Hold! Hold!

Hold it! Get it up there!

Leg it up! Bring it up. Up!

Hold it up.. up

Up and up..

Okay,... 1,2 and 3 and 4

And split! You heard me ladies, split!

Keep on

You shake! Shake it! Yeah......

Keep moving.... Move....

Hey! Miss!

What are you doing up there?

Come on

Is your foot ok?

What's wrong?

I twisted my ankle

It's okay. I'll help you

You remind me of when I was little

when I took my first dance lesson

Same as you

I got hurt the first time

It gets easier with practice

I'm gonna go shower

I love your fur

I see

I haven't get your name

My name is Liu

Ms Liu

I'm Joanna

I know who you are

Everyone knows you

you're a big movie star

Please

just call me Joanna

So what do you do, Ms Liu?

I am a kindergarten teacher

You can call me Miss Teacher Liu

Miss Teacher Liu

Yes, that is

I should get your number

Sure

I actually need to seek
your advice on infant education

Are you expecting?

Not yet

But we're making plans

I'm not the right person for you

I teach only gifted children

My mom always says

"Like water wearing down a stone,

constant effort can work miracles"

Slow and steady wins the race

In no time at all

Joanna had become great friends with me

I never let a chance go by

without telling her about me and Jeff

Joanna, let me tell you something

We were so good together

There was this once at the beach...

It's unbelievable

Your boyfriend was so good to you

But men are rotten to the core

Don't worry

I think of something

to help you get him back

Really?

Joanna, you're such a good friend

My boyfriend's on the phone

I'll introduce you two

Hello?

You're late

Where are you?

Hold on a second

Baby

there's a friend I want you to meet

Miss Teacher Liu. Are you in there?

I think I've got the runs

You go ahead

Are you ok? I have medicine in my bag

No need.
I just need to get it out of my system

Okay then.... See you later

By the way

Don't forget

Rock climbing on Sunday

I'll wait for you at the club

You've got to come

Okay

Will your boyfriend be coming too?

He can't

He is too busy

Alright then

I'll see you there

Don't go

Do you even know how to rock climb?

It's just climbing right?

What's there to know

That's good, that's a good pose

Nice.. really cute

Stomach ache...toothache... headache

Nice, bigger smile please

Great, really cute

Excellent, excellent

Let me help you

This buckle has to be tight

Otherwise,
it could be really dangerous up there

Okay. That's good

Thanks

Let's go

Ms. Teacher Liu

Be careful as this is your first time

Whatever you do, don't climb too high

Remember, you're not me

Nice and easy

See you at the top

Miss Teacher Liu

Didn't I tell you

Don't climb too high,
don't climb too high

See what happened

You should have listened to me

Sophie..

What did you say?

I don't understand

Look at you now

You'll be hospitalized
for a really long time

All your plans will be for nothing

Let me help you

This buckle has to be tight

Otherwise it could be
really dangerous up there

You thought you could fool me?

I've seen

your photo many times

You want to play act with me?

Yeah right

See

Look at you right now

Go nurse yourself in the hospital

Take a good rest

Hurry up

Take her away

Take a good rest

Goodbye Ms Teacher Liu

No!!!!

What's wrong?

Sophie. You are awake

Here, drink some water

Don't move

What an evil woman!

What day is it today?

27th

Give me my phone

Today is Jeff's birthday

Still thinking about Jeff?

Does he even care?

Cheers. Let's celebrate

Celebrate?

Celebrate what?

Celebrate

Today... you finished work early

We can finally
have a nice dinner together

Look here

Look over here!

Honey

You know what?

I've been thinking of you all day long

Joanna

Today is my...

Wait a sec... I've got a call

Hello

You've gone way too far

You can't hurt people like this

What are you talking about?

I'm at the hospital

You broke her leg. Didn't you know that?

If something worse happens to her

it'll all be your fault

It sounds like

you really care for her

I tell you

she was asking for it

That would teach her for messing with me

It's okay, its okay

You know what?

She just isn't good enough

Isn't this just perfect

broken leg and all

It'll take at least a month to heal

And we still have to keep mom in the dark

Tell her that we are both busy

Who will take care of you?

I'll take care of her

We came up with the idea together

All that's happened is my fault too

Dumplings tonight

The most delicious dumplings!

You know what?

I wish it wasn't my leg that was broken

I wish it were my head

Then I won't remember anything

If I don't remember,
it wouldn't hurt so bad

But you won't be happy either

Last night I had a dream

I dreamed of a little boy

with a box growing on his head

And then?

That box is a "memory box"

It was shaped like this

You could see into the box

The little boy was adorable

He had memory notes in his box

In the dream

I saw the little boy's world

There was this golden field

Ears of wheat swaying in the wind

I wish I could be like him
and stay there forever

Everyday, the little boy

would write down his thoughts
on little pieces of paper

and put them in the box

Every once in a while

he would clean it out

He'd throw away all dark memories

and only keep the happy ones

But one day

something terrible happened

The box broke

and the wind carried all his notes away

He searched everywhere
for his lost memories

But unfortunately

he couldn't find any of them

And then?

The box was empty

and I woke up

No way

The story can't end here

Listen

It goes like this

One day

he went back again to
search for his memories

The sky was exceptionally blue

Floating about were

little white clouds

and little birds were flying all around

chirping and singing

Along the way, he met a little girl

a beautiful little girl

wearing a summer dress with flowers

And she could play the violin

eventually, they fell in love

and were never separated again

Everything began anew

What a romantic story

You could tell it in your next book

I'm not in the mood

My own memory box hasn't been emptied yet

That's because

you threw away the key of the box

But I found it

Wanna see it?

Yes, I do

But I warn you

this might hurt a bit

Then, no

You won't regret it

It'll only take a second

No

Here it comes

Might hurt a little

I'm opening it

Hold on! Be brave!

I'm opening it

It's open!

Let me see

I'm sorry

Let me help you

Did you hear that Joanna has a new guy?

Who is it?

Who know?

Did I tell you that our choir

has prepared a special song
for your wedding

Is the camera ready

Camera!

Action!

It's rather late now, Tommie

I have to go abroad

Cut!

Jeff

Where are you going?

Let me introduce you

to my boyfriend

How are you?

Don't get the wrong impression

We're rehearsing

Isn't this scene supposed to be

with that pretty boy?

Why is it this guy again?

Now, it is him

He plays General Liu

He is my true love in this story

Didn't I tell you before?

That's right, buddy

Help me out

Is it better

if I kissed

like this

or kiss like this?

Sophie, help me with this game.
My fingers can't keep up

C'mon, faster, faster!

This one! This one!

Coming, coming!

Thank you

Whoever marries you

is gonna be such a lucky girl

I bet Joanna regrets it now

It's all my fault!

I shouldn't have left you

But...

How I miss your

yummy dumplings!

Spring Stop saying that

Brother YiGu

I know whenever you feel guilty

your stomach hurts

But remember that

I will always forgive you Jeff.,
love you so much, that's why it hurts

What's up with you?

Whenever something's bothering you

you get all fidgety

like there are ants in your pants

Spit it out!

I...

Hello?

It's Jeff

Jeff

calling from his home!

Why didn't he say anything?

Should I call him back?

Me, I wouldn't

Hello?

Sophie!

How're you?

Hold on, I've another call

That was my mom

She says hi

Thanks

Actually,
I've no special reason for calling

I just wanted to see how you're doing?

I'm good

That's good

Ok, then. Bye

I.....

I've done it!

Gordon!

It's gonna work!

Why do you look so upset?

Aren't you happy for me?

Are you jealous?

Sophie

If I gave up Joanna

would you give up Jeff?

What do you meant?

Lately, I'm exhausted
I don't want to do this anymore

I want out

I don't want to keep this
cooperative relationship with you

Why?

Because

you and Jeff are not right for each other

A girl like you

needs someone who really understands you

who appreciates you

Someone

someone who wouldn't leave you

I think you know that

Jeff is not that guy

Let's say I help you win Jeff back

what's the point?

The wedding is less than a month

how could I let it go just like that

I want him to regret what he's done

I want him to know
what it's like to be dumped

I want him to come
apologize a million times

And then?

In front of everyone

with a little smile on my face, I'll say

Jeff

you're not good enough for me

This is the real reason
you want Jeff back?

Yup

You don't need me then

you need a psychiatrist

I can't help you

This is how you solve
all of your problems?

5 years ago you had a photo exhibition

That was a failure

Then, you hide all your works away
in your little darkroom

Don't you think that's a shame?

Yeah, I'm a shame

But you're pathetic!

Lisa, tell us

How you discover this photographer?

It's a long story

I visited my friend's gallery one day

The first time I saw his works

I was touched

Thank you

I came to get my camera

About yesterday

I'm sorry

Can we just pretend that
it didn't happen?

You know

I can't do anything without you

Come off it

What do you really want

Can you help me out one more time?

Just this once!

I swear. One last time
Strategy #5 Kill by Proxy

Him?

Billy Bob

Be nice

He stayed up all night for you,

practicing

Will he do?

No problem

Hurry, get in!

Ladies. Top of the Morn'n?

Remember

get her close to the window

We need to get a good shot

This is what she looks like

Please... You kidding?

Like I really need her photo

Her billboards are all over the place

Even if she had botched plastic surgery

I would still recognize her

Trust me

Good luck, honey

Just leave it to me

Okay, here we go

Bye Bye

Coming, coming

Let me.. let me see

Why hasn't he made his move?

He likes his foreplay

Come on

Hurry up

Quick, start recording

We have to make it clear first

No talking once we start recording

Otherwise, Jeff...

It's recording! Strategy #5 Kill by Proxy

Sophie, what the hell are you doing?

I've been calling you for days

Honey, are you okay?

If you don't respond,
I'll come kick down your door

Sophie, call me

It's about the wedding cake

Sophie, don't be so down

If you don't have Jeff
you've still got me

and don't forget we're partners

Honey

we know you're not in the mood

but it's been 2 weeks

and we're worried about you

And one more thing

they're asking me about the book delivery

How about turning in your draft

and then go back to ignoring the world?

Sophie

don't stay at home sulking

I've got a gift for you

that will help you forget
all the bad things

Call me

I know this puppy

Where did he come from?

Bought him

When?

While ago

What's his name?

Little Alex

Plagiarist

Not really

I bought him for you

Just didn't have the chance
to give him to you

Why don't you keep him

and return him to me later

Thank you

Have some tea

Don't you have anything nicer?

I'm a VIP

Cheers!

What are you doing?

Look, it's my new commercial

Where is the remote?

Jeff Li

Get over here now!

You know what?

You are the

most manipulative

most petty

most stubborn

most....

So you're saying

that she put them here on purpose?

Okay then

why don't you gather up all this crap

and return it all to her

All this stuff you gave to her!

...bad tempered

most unlikable girl

pink?

so intimate!

Even enough

you're a bit stubborn

and talk too much

but... you are still

the best cook

most patient

most caring

most talented

photographer.. who understands me most

See

Not so hard to find?

I just don't understand

Why

Why let me find them first?

Fine. You find them

I've got to go to work

If there's really nothing between you

then take this box

and throw it away

Little Alex's arrival

and Gordon's sweetness

made me feel so much better

Out of nowhere

I had an idea

There is something I'd like to ask you

I'm not sure if you'll like it

Yeah?

Whenever I needed help

you were always there for me

I wish I could do the same for you

So..

I was thinking

actually, I've been thinking

about this for awhile...

I'd like to organize

Gordon's

Black and White Personal Portrait
Photography Exhibition

Seems a little long

Yeah, Gordon's Photo Exhibition.
What do you think?

You don't have to worry about a thing

I'll take care of everything

We can do it right here

I'll paint all the walls new colors

Over there we'll put a Christmas tree

I need to order 10 more light-boxes,
okay?

Put this up there

Okay, okay

This is a good photo

Excuse me, can you help me plug this in?

Go over there and arrange the flowers

Gordon, these photos are amazing

Thank you. Thank you

Please, make yourself at home

An unique style

I have a feeling of falling in love

You

Ma'am

How about a glass of wine?

Yes, I'll take another

Congratulations

Thanks. Thanks

They're excellent

Here she comes

So Beautiful

I've been calling you all day

Why aren't you answering my calls?

I told you

I just want to be alone for a while

It's been days.
How much more time do you need?

Where are you?

Who're you with?

I'm almost ready

When you finish shooting tomorrow

we'll sit down and talk

What do you mean?

You went to the exhibition, didn't you?

Hello?

What are you waiting for?

Start shooting already!

Even Lisa is here

That must mean a lot for you

Actually, Sophie did all this

Make sure you thank her properly

Haven't been to such
a good exhibition for a long time

Me too

Now, do you believe me?

You see? Everybody loves your works

How can I thank you?

Anything you want

Kiss me

My last move

Kill Enemy with Jealousy

I wanted to talk it over with you first

but I'd promised you that
I wouldn't do this anymore

so, I....

Are you crazy?

Isn't this what you wanted?

But I just kissed you

That one was not real enough

He'd never believe it in a million years

But now you've scared him off

Is today Christmas?

I'm still here

Jeff

How did you...

I can't wait till tomorrow

You're driving me crazy

So what the hell do you have in mind?

Why don't you enjoy what you planned?

I can't help you

Joanna

I'm not good enough for you

What are you saying?

Joanna! Can I have your autograph?

Can I have an autograph?

Jeff

Sorry, sorry

The picture came out already

I like your pictures very much

I'll do it

Thank your for inviting me

In fact,

I've been wanting to call you

Really?

Sophie

there's something I've to tell you

These days,

I've been meaning to tell you

Honey

There you are

I'm tired, I want to go home

Take me home now!

In a bit, I need some time

Everybody knows me here

I want to go home now!

It's not like you're cripple.
Walk home yourself

Sophie, Sophie

Sorry, she's drunk

Let's go

Tell me

What's your problem?

Joanna

I want to break up

There are too many differences

between us

I'm not good enough for you

She told you to say that, didn't she?

Who?

That bitch!

Don't call her that

Sophie is a good person

A good person?

She's too good at acting

Do you have any idea
what she's done behind our back

This whole time
she's been trying to break us up

A good person?

You completely fell for it

You're stepping on my dress

I'm sorry

I really am not

good enough for you

I just wish that

it wasn't her leg that got broken

but her head

What are you doing? Let go of me!

You're hurting me

Sophie

There is something I have to tell you

How can you say that?

How do I know it will turn out like that?

Jeff Li! Come back here!

Aren't you gonna go after her?
Here's your chance

Do you really not know
or are you just pretending?

I don't want them to break up at all

Why?

Because I'm in love with you

To be honest
I really didn't like you at first

But then I don't know how

I just couldn't help myself

I've never met a girl like you

Every little thing you do

I love it all

You're lying to your mother

I love how your voice rises

The way your eyebrows wrinkle
when you're plotting some new scheme

The way you chew your fingernails

When you are nervous

How you are too stubborn
to recognize defeat

and never give up

You made me see myself more clearly

made me stronger to go after
what I want in life

And now what I want is

to wake up every morning
and see your face

hear your voice

Sophie

you are the girl for me

and I know that

I'm the right guy for you

So I'm begging you not to waste
any more time on revenge

I can't take it anymore

And there's something else

I need to tell you

Joanna and I are actually...

Sophie

Wait for me here, I'll be right back

Don't go anywhere

Sophie

I didn't know

she broke your leg

It's okay

I'm fine now

Can we... start over again?

You should go

I know

this will take some time

I'll wait for you

Sophie

I mean what I say

I love you

I'm in love with you

I've never ever

met a girl like you

Every little thing you do

I love it

And now what I want is

to wake up every morning
and see your face

What are you doing here?

I came for my dog

You've got Jeff,
now you want my brother too?

Your brother?

Of course, my big brother

my spy

You actually thought he loved you?

Joanna, what are you talking about?

What, I'm wrong?

Sophie, let me explain

Stop!

Sophie! Sophie!

Sophie! Let me explain

Wait, listen!

That night at the party you were drunk

I don't want to listen to you

Listen to me!

Sophie, let me explain

I told her about you

She begged me to be her spy

I knew it was wrong but I had no choice

You lied to me!

I had no choice

She's my only family

I've raised her since
she was 3 years old

I just couldn't refuse her!

I couldn't refuse her

You lied to me!

Sophie

what happened to your leg, the fall

I had nothing to do with it.
I swear to God!

I fought with her over this

Sophie

So it was that kind of ending

How so... imperfect

Although it was an imperfect ending

After that night

I saw things more clearly

and then

I fell ill for some time

Good morning

Thank God

You're finally awake

If you didn't come back to life soon

I would've had to find another bridesmaid

Hello

Good morning

Honey

You haven't congratulated me yet

I am already

divorced!

Mom

you're such a silly girl

Why didn't you

just tell me the truth?

Because I thought I did something wrong

No matter what you do

I'll always be there for you

I just hope that

you learned something from all of this

I was scared

Of what?

I was scared of being hurt

The same way

Dad hurt you many years ago

When you fall in love with someone

being hurt is something you can't avoid

But

it's absolutely worth it

I just hope

you to be strong

and love fearlessly
no matter what the cost

Just like your mom

Once in a life

with no regrets

because mom has you

Hey honey

I heard he's getting ready to
leave the country

Go

Sophie

Where are you going?

I....

You like it?

Jeff

The flowers are beautiful

But they're not right for me

It's okay though

I'm sue that you will find
the right person for them

I promise

Actually, can I borrow them for while?

Thanks!

My brother went to Europe

He didn't say when he was coming back

My brother was serious about you

I've never seen him like this before

After that

I had no news about him

So I decided

to put our story in a book

That way, it may help

other people who've been lost like me

In hope that

they can find themselves

and true love

All of you in the studio

and those at home watching

I hope after today's program

you will understand Sophie more

and have interest in

Sophie's new book

"Handbook of Love"

Sophie

You okay?

I'm gonna go

Don't forget, tomorrow afternoon
there is another interview

Sophie

You don't even recognize Little Alex anymore?

What exactly do you have in that memory box?

Why don't you get out your key
pen it and see for yourself?

What exactly do you have in
that memory box?

Why don't you get out your key,
open it and see for yourself?
