Bet Hur

To coax TALKER CHUEN into revealing the legendary gambling match between the Fiend, TO SHING, and the Knight, HEUNG MO-MING, OK BOY, a gambling apprentice, is willing to bet the jade pendant of the forbearance sect on it to play a gambling game with the store lady boss, and eventually wins expensive liquor. OK BOY’s Sidai, BROTHER SAUCY, is a fitness trainer; whereas OK BOY and another Sidai BLOW WATER MAN form a small logistics company. Their Sifu BROTHER SHODDY urgently summons them, but OK BOY is running late for the meeting because he listened to TALKER CHUEN talk about the gambling match and got carried away. It turns out that, years ago, TO SHING, aka the Fiend, challenged gambling supremo WU SAM-SING, known as the Gent, to a duel. Just as WU SAM-SING conceded to defeat and was about to leave, TO SHING coerced him to play another game. In the nick of time, MO-MING appeared and took up the challenge. Rushing to meet his Sifu, OK BOY runs into SZE SIU-TUNG, who carries a Guanyin statue and starts bargaining with TALKER CHUEN. SIU-TUNG carries the statue and heads to the Horse King UNCLE CHUNG’s home. UNCLE CHUNG dares not to leave his home after he was told by DIVINER that something catastrophic is going to happen. After meeting up with her Simui WONG SIU-NAM and CHING SIU-PAK, SIU-TUNG goes together with them to look for DIVINER, thinking he is a swindler.

OK BOY gets a box covered by a red cloth from DIVINER, yet BLOW WATER MAN is unable to offer him any help because he himself needs to rush a delivery. BLOW WATER MAN is humiliated by TO TAI-PO after being falsely accused of sexual assault by a woman. He calls for BROTHER SAUCY’s help to take revenge on TAI-PO, but both are captured by TAI-PO’s henchmen. Rushing to their rescue, OK BOY also ends up being held captive. Going to their rescue, BROTHER SHODDY finds out that TAI-PO is obsessed with horse racing, so he promises to give TAI-PO a tip that is sure to win, but only on one condition, which is to release his apprentices. With the Champions Cup Charity Fundraising Auction around the corner, SIU-TUNG and the others accompany UNCLE CHUNG to attend the event, coming into an inevitable confrontation with OK BOY and his Sidai. Seeing that the final item in the auction turns out to be a Han Dynasty terracotta horse, UNCLE CHUNG cannot help but start bidding on the item at all cost. The fierce competition attracts TAI-PO’s attention. To steal the limelight for his father TO TUNG-HOI, TAI-PO also takes part in the auction and eventually outbids the others to get the terracotta horse with $30 million. However, after TUNG-HOI returns home, he gives TAI-PO an earful.

Failure to get the bid for the Han Dynasty terracotta horse aggravates UNCLE CHUNG’s illness, leaving SIU-TUNG no other choice but to go to TALKER CHUEN’s store to discuss the issue with OK BOY, who not only refuses to cooperate but also runs away. After learning that someone else has fallen victim to their scam, BROTHER SHODDY and his three apprentices plan to flee and lay low for the time being. BROTHER SHODDY goes alone to rescue DIVINER, and he promises to win the Champion Cup for TAI-PO in exchange for his life. DIVINER is arrested and unable to stop UNCLE CHUNG from taking part in the game. Meanwhile, BROTHER SHODDY and his three apprentices plan to run away but are thwarted by TAI-PO, who even holds BLOW WATER MAN captive. SIU-TUNG receives a message from OK BOY asking her out to meet him, thinking he takes a fancy to her. OK BOY asks her for help and even kneels in front of her in public. Under TAI-PO’s surveillance, OK BOY sneaks into the horse LAUGHTER’s stable, rubbing some ointment on its leg.

SIU-TUNG dresses to the nines, accompanying UNCLE CHUNG to attend the Champions Cup race event. TUNG-HOI runs into UNCLE CHUNG, with whom he instantly gets into a heated verbal exchange. The race starts and the horse TO TREASURE takes the lead from the very beginning; whereas LAUGHTER falls behind, making TAI-PO think it’s a sure win. TAI-PO’s henchmen receive a phone call, telling them to release the hostage, but they are unable to collect the money upon their arrival at the Jockey Club. After learning about the scam, TAI-PO leads his henchmen in person to BROTHER SHODDY’s home for revenge. While there, they discover an African map, misconceiving that they went overseas. It turns out that BROTHER SHODDY and his three apprentices are still in Hong Kong, except that they took refuge in OK BOY’s hometown, the Nineteen Villages. Their fellow villager, MUM WONG, seeks to sell her house to pay off her son’s debt as soon as possible. Just as SIU-TUNG and the other two are bargaining with MUM WONG about the selling price, the creditor out of the blue shows up. Not wanting MUM WONG to sell the house cheap just to pay off the debt, OK BOY comes up with an idea, challenging the creditor to a gambling match.

TAI-PO requests his debtor, police officer YEUNG SIR, to locate BROTHER SHODDY and his three apprentices, but YEUNG SIR claims that he is too busy to deal with the matter due to the drug dealer SCAR KING’s release. TAI-PO returns to his office, only to find out that SCAR KING’s men are meeting up with TUNG-HOI. Later, TUNG-HOI warns TAI-PO not to get involved in drugs no matter what. SIU-TUNG runs into a lady who just sprained her ankle, so she helps carry her home. The lady turns out to be OK BOY’s mother, OK MOM. While conducting a site visit around the village, BROTHER SHODDY cannot help reminiscing about the past when he was together with his ex-girlfriend. Though the newly-released prisoner SCAR KING runs into an obstacle while seeking collaboration with TUNG-HOI, the most important thing for him is to take revenge on CHAN SIU-LUNG, the one who arrested him. Walking to a street full of bars, SIU-LUNG notices he is being followed, leaving him no other choice but to get rid of the tail first before he can go inside the bar to look for someone. SIU-LUNG enters the bar and encounters psychologist HEUNG SUM-YIN, who instantly recognizes that he is a cop.

SIU-TUNG learns that her Sifu SUP SAM MUI will soon be home, so she immediately evacuates OK BOY and the other two, who were sleeping downstairs, because her Sifu does not like guys. SUP SAM MUI runs into BROTHER SHOBBY by the creek, however, she still bears a grudge against him, warning him not to interfere with her plan. On the discovery of the contaminated farming soil by MUM CHAN, the village head canvasses the villagers for their views on whether or not to sell the farm land. The villagers gather in front of the village office, waiting for the representative of the land developer, and soon SUP SAM MUI shows up together with SIU-TUNG. Seeing that his own mother intends to sell her farm land, OK BOY asks his Sifu for help. Just as the villagers are going to sign the contract, BROTHER SHODDY and OK BOY suddenly appear, subsequently making the deal fall through. SIU-LUNG fires shots without giving any verbal warning, so he is told by his supervisor LEUNG SIR to take a vacation and consult a psychiatrist. SIU-LUNG finds out that the psychotherapist turns out to be HEUNG SUM-YIN, the one he met earlier at the bar.

When BROTHER SHODDY enquires with OK MOM about issues regarding a woman, OK BOY and the other two ask him what happened between him and SUP SAM MUI, so BROTHER SHODDY starts explaining to them. Seeking revenge on TINA, TAI-PO makes a deal with SCAR KING to traffic drugs. Meanwhile, OK BOY goes alone to have a word with SUM-YIN, analyzing all the pros and cons to her about conducting an evaluation for SIU-LUNG. On top of that, he even invites SUM-YIN to have dinner with SIU-LUNG, unfortunately, the meeting ends on a sour note. SUP SAM MUI cooperates with BROTHER SHODDY, and successfully prevents the villagers from being taken advantage of. SUP SAM MUI has a recurrence of asthma after getting wet in the rain, lapsing into a coma. Having seen this, BROTHER SHODDY instantly sends her to the hospital. Upon waking up, SUP SAM MUI learns that BROTHER SHODDY exerted himself to save her life, so she can’t help feeling very touched. After SUP SAM MUI is discharged from the hospital, BROTHER SHODDY is still very attentive. Looking for medication, BROTHER SHODDY surprisingly sees that SUP SAM MUI discovered a type of black stone, a very rare kind.

All the construction work has to be stopped due to the recent archaeological discoveries at the farm. As scheduled, SIU-LUNG arrives at SUM-YIN’s clinic, but she is not there. He later discovers that she was in trouble. IVY is beaten up, fortunately, SIU-LUNG arrives in the nick of time and helps SUM-YIN rescue her. Seeing that IVY’s way of taking drugs is very simple, SIU-LUNG reveals to OK BOY that he suspects there is a new drug in town. During TAI-PO’s stay at SCAR KING’s home, SCAR KING’s henchmen suddenly report that LEUNG SIR is leading the police to come and raid the place. Leading his men, SCAR KING has an exchange of gunfire with the police. OK BOY discusses with SIU-TUNG about the recent archaeological discoveries, thinking it’s very suspicious, so he decides to probe into the matter, starting with the fragment. SIU-LUNG claims that he could not find SCAR KING’s accomplice nor his boss, and the only clue he has is the watch he found at the site. SUM-YIN instantly recognizes it’s a limited-edition watch after seeing the photo. There are only five in the world, and the TO family is one of the five collectors. As such, SIU-LUNG believes TAI-PO is the prime person of interest.

TAI-PO is released, less than 48 hours after being taken back to the police station, so SIU-LUNG complains to his superior. TUNG-HOI instructs his lawyer to write cheques to the villagers to acquire their land, however, the lawyer tells SUP SAM MUI that TUNG-HOI has no intention of buying their farm land, making their effort wasted. Noticing that SIU-LUNG takes a fancy to SUM-YIN, OK BOY makes an appointment with SUM-YIN, seeking to create an opportunity for them. Unexpectedly, SUM-YIN misconceives that OK BOY fell in love with SIU-LUNG, so she agrees to act on behalf of OK BOY, helping convey his love to SIU-LUNG. After BLOW WATER MAN and OK BOY find a clue at an auto wrecker, TAI-PO’s lawyer indicates that the police have gained enough evidence to prosecute TAI-PO. Having heard this, TUNG-HOI instantly rushes to the auto wrecker. LEUNG SIR arrests TAI-PO. Fearing that TUNG-HOI will harm OK BOY, SIU-LUNG suggests to LEUNG SIR that OK BOY should be placed into the witness protection program. Just as OK BOY goes to the safe house, he is knocked unconscious.

TUNG-HOI orders his men to slowly torture OK BOY to death, setting an example. OK BOY has not come home for whole night, making his mom very worried, so BROTHER SHODDY comforts her that OK BOY just went to Macau to discuss some business for him. BROTHER SHODDY and SUP SAM MUI go to negotiate with TUNG-HOI, who instead challenges them to a gambling game, betting OK BOY’s life on it. At the gambling table, TUNG-HOI deliberately makes them see OK BOY being tortured so as to distract BROTHER SHODDY. On the other hand, SUP SAM MUI leads SIU-TUNG and the others to the place where she suspects OK BOY is being held, urging them to split up and look in difference areas. OK BOY passes out when he is rushed to the hospital, and BROTHER SHODDY rushes there to tell them that OK BOY was injected by some drugs. TAI-PO seeks revenge upon OK BOY after being acquitted of the charges, but is thwarted by TUNG-HOI. Meanwhile, OK MOM learns that all of them are highly skilled gamblers, so she purposely gives them the cold shoulder.

TAI-PO eavesdrops on the conversation between his father and TINA at the office, learning that TINA intends to transfer him to Italy. With SUP SAM MUI leading everybody to her villa and temporarily staying there, BLOW WATER MAN and the others are so eager to select a room to move in that OK BOY is left out. All of them believe that it’s not a good idea to remain idle like this, so BROTHER SAUCY suggests that he and BLOW WATER MAN should resume their work at the fitness center. In a fitness class, BROTHER SAUCY encounters SIU-SAI, who taunts him for being incompetent. Unexpectedly, after the class, SIU-SAI instead wants him to be her private fitness trainer. BLOW WATER MAN warns BROTHER SAUCY to be wary of SIU-SAI, because she is with TAI-PO. SIU-TUNG returns home, only to find OK BOY lying on the floor due to hunger, so she instantly cooks for him. At a restaurant, two guys make a pass on SIU-PAK. Having seen this, BROTHER SAUCY wants to argue with them, but BLOW WATER MAN suggests challenging them to a gambling game.

BLOW WATER MAN suggests settling the dispute of the sexual advance made on SIU-PAK by using a gambling game. Seeing them possessing superb gambling skills, the restaurant owner passes them the invitation card to a gambling tournament. TUNG-HOI launders money for the Viet Gang, but they keep pushing him. Fortunately, TINA shows up bringing along LEUNG SIR to help him out of trouble. All of them not only successfully advance to the next round of the tournament, but also win lots of money. TINA accompanies TUNG-HOI to play golf, during which TUNG-HOI proposes marriage to her, but is rejected by her. BROTHER SAUCY and the others treat SUP SAM MUI to a feast, and they claim that they made money by working at the fitness center, and conceal the fact that they went to the gambling tournament. OK BOY is left alone at home, so he uses a wheel chair and goes to Mo Ming Banquet Private Kitchen. BROTHER SHODDY accompanies SUP SAM MUI to visit an art gallery, knowing that she must be up to something. When BLOW WATER MAN is with SIU-NAM, he kisses her and successfully wins her heart.

OK BOY helps SIU-TUNG find the earrings she lost in the kitchen, making her feel very touched. SUP SAM MUI is asked by Mr. LAM to look for three lesser known yet priceless paintings, and she finds one of them. As to the second one, according to SUM-YIN, it belongs to one of her patients named TANG-TANG, who later gives it as a gift to SIU-TUNG. After SUP SAM MUI reveals to SUM-YIN that they still need the last ink painting of clouds, SUM-YIN replies that she has never seen it but she can probe into the matter for them. Just as TAI-PO gets so bored that he couldn’t find ways to pass time, YEUK-LAN suddenly pays a visit. After seeing YEUK-LAN, SIU-SAI immediately gets very jealous, thinking she is TAI-PO’s girlfriend. In a panic, TAI-PO instantly tells her that YEUK-LAN is his younger sister. MO-MING appears carrying some flowers. Mistaking him for one of SUM-YIN’s suitors, SIU-LUNG instantly turns hostile against him. However, after MO-MING reveals that he is SUM-YIN’s father, things become awkward.

With the gambling tournament taking place at various levels of the building, BROTHER SAUCY and the other three have reached the seventh level; whereas BROTHER SHODDY still has to start from the first level. SIU-NAM and her team run into a strong competitor and start losing money, fortunately, BROTHER SHODDY arrives in the nick of time and manages to control the situation. After BROTHER SHODDY wins, some staff members invite him to meet up with the organizer. LEUNG SIR explains that they are conducting a statistical analysis on gambling cheats, but BROTHER SHODDY uses his health problem as an excuse to turn down their invitation. Instead, he suggests that they should cooperate with his apprentices. OK BOY learns culinary skills at Mo Ming Banquet Private Kitchen, and his hand movement has greatly improved. BLOW WATER MAN and the other three dress up nicely to go to work. Upon their arrival at the company DASH, they come to realize that they need to go through an interview. On top of that, the company only intends to hire SIU-NAM and BROTHER SAUCY. Through an art collector and an auction, SUM-YIN eventually locates the ink painting. Meanwhile, SIU-TUNG discovers that there are two separate transactions regarding the same painting.

SUP SAM MUI returns to her room after work, only to find out that BROTHER SHODDY is waiting for her, so she can’t help feeling shocked. On the first day SIU-NAM and BROTHER SAUCY report for duty, BROTHER SAUCY is arranged to work for YEUK-LAN; whereas SIU-NAM is sent to the IT department, and her co-workers look down on her. BLOW WATER MAN stays at home doing nothing, so BROTHER SHODDY brings him to a high-end club looking for opportunity because BLOW WATER MAN is very eloquent. Out of the blue, BROTHER SHODDY catches a glimpse of TO SHING, which greatly startles him. To lose weight, YEUK-LAN skips lunch. Having learned this, BROTHER SAUCY teaches her healthy ways to lose weight. Just as OK BOY is about to cook something, SIU-TUNG returns home. Right away, OK BOY dashes back to his room, pretending that he has not recovered yet. BROTHER SAUCY goes to work everyday, leaving SIU-PAK alone with nothing to do. Seeing that SIU-PAK gets so bored at the fitness center, SIU-SAI seizes the opportunity to get close to her.

SIU-SAI uses the pretext of accompanying SIU-PAK to sneak into the place where OK BOY is hiding, and even discovers the business card of Mo Ming Banquet Private Kitchen in his room. YEUK-LAN falls asleep and forgets to log out of the company computer system after working overtime the whole night. As a result, ALEX summons all the employees, seeking to hold someone responsible. BROTHER SAUCY braves it out for YEUK-LAN before she can say anything that could incriminate her. MO-MING leads OK BOY to a farm, teaching him how to catch earthworms without digging up the dirt. Seeing BROTHER SAUCY work overtime the whole night, SIU-PAK prepares a breakfast and delivers it to his company. Yet, upon her arrival, she surprisingly sees that YEUK-LAN is sleeping leaning up against BROTHER SAUCY. Leading his men, TAI-PO comes to the Mo Ming Banquet Private Kitchen to look for OK BOY, but is subdued by PEPPER. TUNG-HOI furiously arrives there, requesting them to release his men. Just as MO-MING and the others are about to leave, MO-MING out of the blue bids farewell to OK BOY…

In order to help SIU-PAK see BROTHER SAUCY everyday, SIU-NAM introduces her to work as the receptionist at DASH. Suddenly, OK BOY arrives at SUM-YIN’s clinic for a consultation, during which the two reminisce about their childhood moments, and later, OK BOY even takes her to a video game center to have fun. BROTHER SHODDY gets suspicious after seeing that OK BOY recovered faster than expected. After enquiring him about it, he comes to realize that OK BOY encountered an adept extraordinaire. By chance, BROTHER SHODDY uncovers that someone planted an eavesdropping device in his pot plant, so he urgently summons everyone. SUP SAM MUI and SIU-TUNG go back to the place they enquired about the ink paint artist, learning that the painter actually resides there. Though they initially rescue the painter, SUP SAM MUI and the painter still end up being captured. Seeing LEUNG SIR alone in the room, SIU-NAM eavesdrops his conversation and learns that he is talking to TUNG-HOI. Meanwhile, OK BOY hears someone knock on the door, so he goes to open the door, only to find SIU-TUNG passed out on the floor.

SUP SAM MUI seizes the chance when the guard is approaching her to attack him and escapes, but is later captured again. SIU-NAM discovers that LEUNG SIR helps TUNG-HOI evade the police. Having learned this, OK BOY decides to inform SIU-LUNG. OK BOY then goes together with SIU-TUNG to the high-end club to collect evidence against TUNG-HOI in exchange for SUP SAM MUI’s life. But, the evidence ends up being taken by them. Just as TUNG-HOI is going to end SUP SAM MUI’s life, BROTHER SHODDY arrives to save her. He continues to protect her after TUNG-HOI triggers an explosion setting the whole place on fire. Eventually, SUP SAM MUI collapses and is rushed to the hospital by her apprentices, yet BROTHER SHODDY is nowhere to be found. YEUK-LAN has not seen BROTHER SAUCY for several days so she gets very anxious at work. TUNG-HOI brings along TINA to meet up with LEUNG SIR, and he even rewards him for his work well done. However, TUNG-HOI is still ill at ease after SUP SAM MUI escapes, so LEUNG SIR instantly suggests taking OK BOY and the others into custody.

TUNG-HOI learns from LEUNG SIR that YEUK-LAN seems to have some relationship problems, so he warns YEUK-LAN not to waste her time on some hooligans, to which she just pretends to agree. BROTHER SHODDY returns to his apprentices’ new home and asks about SUP SAM MUI, only to find out that SIU-NAM and SIU-PAK are the only ones to look after her. As expected, some assassins disguise as medical personnel to sneak into SUP SAM MUI’s ward to harm her. After SUP SAM MUI is discharged from the hospital and returns home, all of them start analyzing the situation. According to SIU-NAM, they need to hack into TUNG-HOI’s company’s main computer system so as to gather enough evidence against him, and to expose his collusion with LEUNG SIR. BROTHER SAUCY asks YEUK-LAN out, and YEUK-LAN agrees to help him. But, according to her, for them to enter the control room, they must first get SIMON WONG’s finger prints to bypass the security system. Meanwhile, YEUK-LAN also finds out that it’s the barcode encoded in SIMON’s tattoo that can help them get through the security system. Therefore, she decides to ask SIMON out to a bar for some drinks, without knowing that he drinks her under the table.

TAI-PO leads his men to find SIMON and question him, yet TUNG-HOI arrives to stop them and takes away SIMON. Just as SIU-NAM plans to hack into DASH’s main computer system, she surprisingly sees that SIMON leads TUNG-HOI and TINA to enter the control room, during which TINA purposely drops her access card to help SIU-NAM hide herself. TINA calls BROTHER SHODDY to discuss cooperating, suggesting ways to deal with TUNG-HOI. After BROTHER SHODDY discusses the issue with them, all of them agree to the plan, except SIU-TUNG and OK BOY, who oppose it. Seeing SUP SAM MUI appear to be worried, BROTHER SHODDY gives her a ring made of their love token - the black stone, instantly making her tear up with happiness. The Viet Gang can’t withdraw the money following a wire transfer, so they have someone arrive at TUNG-HOI’s office. TUNG-HOI agrees to give them an advance by using his own money. BROTHER SHODDY and his three apprentices then disguise as the Viet Gang members to contact TUNG-HOI’s henchmen who carry the cash.
