Going up?!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n Going down.<\/p>\n (NB: the words spoken are 下去了 – Xià qù le.)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Going down?!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Lego speaks to someone off-screen.<\/p>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n Chanel—softer or more emphasis?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n FEMALE VOICE off-screen<\/p>\n A little more emphasis.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n (emphasising)<\/p>\n Chanel. Chanel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n With his hand eloquently gesturing, Lego Li looks at the camera and repeats the word, Chanel, again.<\/p>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n Chanel. Chanel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cut scene to Lego Li as Han Jie. We take the vantage point of the students sitting in the scene where Han Jie holds a discussion class. Han Jie lectures Tang Xiao Niu about hygiene in the kitchen.<\/p>\n HAN JIE<\/p>\n Xiao Niu as well. Don’t wear those rings or earrings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Lego Li suddenly stops and goes out of character. With a serious cast, he moves his attention from left to his right. He repeats the French brand name again:<\/p>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n (to someone off-screen right of his position)<\/p>\n Chanel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to Lego Li’s actions)<\/p>\n Seeking help.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n A female voice off-screen repeats the word, Chanel, for Lego Li to hear how it’s said:<\/p>\n FEMALE VOICE off-screen<\/p>\n Chanel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Lego Li turns back to the front and immediately repeats the word.<\/p>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n (exaggeratingly)<\/p>\n Chanel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n A glare sets in Lego Li’s eyes after he finishes saying the word.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to Lego Li)<\/p>\n The expression seems to exhibit a bit of annoyance.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n SCHOOL KITCHEN Lego Li and Allison Lin<\/p>\n Lego Li pulls a wall suction pad off of a wall panel in the bright and modern kitchen classroom set. Allison Lin enters, taking a look at the suction pad Lego Li has in his hand. Allison Lin is tapping at the metal handle of the suction pad. (NB: Allison Lin made a comment as she tapped the metal handle and Lego Li responded to it, but we couldn’t catch it. Sorry.)<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Studying the suction pad used for filming.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n What are you doing with that?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Lego Li takes Allison Lin by the arm and turns her around to place the suction pad onto her back. Allison Lin scrunches her face and expresses unwillingness to having it placed at her back.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to Allison Lin)<\/p>\n There’s no limits to playing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n Oh, I know! This is CPR.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin starts popping her chest as if receiving CPR from the suction pad Lego Li has against her back.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to the way in which the CPR is done)<\/p>\n Eh?! There’s something not quite right about this.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin pops a couple more times. Lego Li lets Allison Lin be and leaves off into the background. Allison Lin continues to talk to the camera about the CPR suction pad.<\/p>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n The suction pad is placed at the wrong side. It should be around the front, shouldn’t it?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin’s eyes suddenly peer to the right of her and behind (to, presumably, Lego Li who has disappeared off shot and seemingly said something).<\/p>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n (shocked)<\/p>\n The back and the front are indistinguishable?!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin looks fully to her right.<\/p>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n Is there a need for you to be like this?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin stands there with a vexed smile, waiting for a response. There is no hint of a response.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Teacher Han is shy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin brings her hand up to her right eye and wipes at her imaginary tears.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Wipes tears.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin returns back to the camera.<\/p>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n That’s okay. I’ll talk to myself so you won’t think I was sad.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n MAKE UP ROOM Ben Wu, Zhang Luo Ti and Hong Yan Xiang<\/p>\n Ben Wu and Zhang Luo Ti hold a female mannequin’s head with a wig between them.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Completely Live From the Sofa<\/p>\n (NB: Not too sure how correct this is. Just couldn’t make sense of the words.)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n BEN WU<\/p>\n What thing are you handling?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Hong Yan Xiang speaks from outside of the shot.<\/p>\n HONG YAN XIANG off-screen<\/p>\n Sorry, our performer is becoming oily.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Hong Yan Xiang scuttles into the shot with a small white cloth and begins patting the female mannequin head’s face with it.<\/p>\n HONG YAN XIANG<\/p>\n Here. Touch up. Touch up. She’s going to perform in a while.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Zhang Luo Ti points to the mannequin’s wig which is unruly at the top.<\/p>\n ZHANG LUO TI<\/p>\n Hey, the hair over here is a little unruly.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Hong Yan Xiang goes to fiddle with the hair in that area.<\/p>\n ZHANG LUO TI<\/p>\n Come. Spray. Spray.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Hong Yan Xiang imitates a hairspray can with his hand and makes a spraying sound as he sprays the area of hair on the female mannequin’s head. Ben Wu and the interviewer places a hand in front of the camera.<\/p>\n BEN WU<\/p>\n Shield.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ZHANG LUO TI<\/p>\n Okay, okay, okay!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Hong Yan Xiang exits the shot once the touch up is done. The female mannequin head still has a bit of unruly hair. Ben Wu looks at the mannequin head then burst out laughing.<\/p>\n BEN WU<\/p>\n Okay?!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ZHANG LUO TI<\/p>\n Let’s go. 5, 4, 3—<\/p>\n<\/div>\n BEN WU<\/p>\n Hold on, wait! Boom’s showing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Zhang Luo Ti moves the mannequin head in his hand to look upwards along with him.<\/p>\n ZHANG LUO TI<\/p>\n Where is one?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Ben Wu points beyond the camera.<\/p>\n BEN WU<\/p>\n Right there!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ZHANG LUO TI<\/p>\n (in realisation)<\/p>\n Oh, over there!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n BEN WU<\/p>\n Boom’s showing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The show that Ben Wu and Zhang Luo Ti is putting on resumes.<\/p>\n FEMALE VOICE off-screen<\/p>\n 5, 4, 3, 2.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n BEN WU<\/p>\n (to female mannequin head)<\/p>\n Hi. How are you?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ZHANG LUO TI<\/p>\n Hello. Wait. A bell sound.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to Zhang Luo Ti)<\/p>\n A sudden outburst of an extraordinary situation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The show once again resumes.<\/p>\n ZHANG LUO TI<\/p>\n 5, 4, 3, 2…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Zhang Luo Ti begins voicing for the female mannequin head in a feminine voice.<\/p>\n FEMALE MANNEQUIN HEAD<\/p>\n Mai Zi.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Ben Wu taking on his alter ego in the series has an expression of surprise as he looks at the mannequin head and then Zhang Luo Ti. Ben Wu takes the female mannequin head as Liu Xuan.<\/p>\n WANG MAI ZHI<\/p>\n Liu Xuan.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n FEMALE MANNEQUIN HEAD<\/p>\n Follow me.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n WANG MAI ZHI<\/p>\n Why?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n FEMALE MANNEQUIN HEAD<\/p>\n Duel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n WANG MAI ZHI<\/p>\n (surprised)<\/p>\n D-d…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n FEMALE MANNEQUIN HEAD<\/p>\n It’s to duel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n WANG MAI ZHI<\/p>\n Is this okay?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n FEMALE MANNEQUIN HEAD<\/p>\n What do you think?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n WANG MAI ZHI<\/p>\n I don’t mind. If you are set on having a duel…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Ben Wu suddenly laughs as he looks at Zhang Luo Ti’s serious face.<\/p>\n FEMALE MANNEQUIN HEAD<\/p>\n Well then, use your mouth to duel my mouth.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Zhang Luo Ti brings the female mannequin head towards Ben Wu. Ben Wu snaps back, laughs and slaps the head away. Zhang Luo Ti joins in Ben Wu and doubles over laughing.<\/p>\n BEN WU<\/p>\n School Horror Romance-Comedy! The End!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n CAFETERIA Hong Yan Xiang, Zhang Luo Ti and Ben Wu<\/p>\n Hong Yan Xiang is at a table with the female mannequin head. He touches up the face again with a small yellow item he has on his table.<\/p>\n HONG YAN XIANG<\/p>\n Excuse me. Our performer is becoming oily again.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ZHANG LUO TI off-screen<\/p>\n Do you dare to look straight into her eyes?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Hong Yan Xiang stops touching up the mannequin head and looks to the side with eyes down and with a shy smile.<\/p>\n HONG YAN XIANG<\/p>\n (feebly)<\/p>\n Yeah.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Lacking confidence. Reluctant to admit defeat.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Hong Yan Xiang brings the mannequin head to face him directly.<\/p>\n HONG YAN XIANG<\/p>\n Directly looking.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n A hand comes into shot. The mannequin head smacks Hong Yan Xiang in the face.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Smack!!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n HONG YAN XIANG<\/p>\n (to Zhang Luo Ti off-screen, laughing)<\/p>\n Don’t use our performer in this way.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Hong Yan Xiang looks at the camera as he points in the direction of Zhang Luo Ti who sits diagonally opposite him.<\/p>\n HONG YAN XIANG<\/p>\n He’s smacking people in the face again. Look at him. He’s really extremely awful.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Camera swivels to Zhang Luo Ti sitting right of a relaxed Ben Wu. Zhang Luo Ti gestures to Ben Wu with a finger.<\/p>\n ZHANG LUO TI<\/p>\n Last time it’s durian…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Zhang Luo Ti moves his finger to gesture to Hong Yan Xiang. Camera swivels back to Hong Yan Xiang. He has resumed touching up the mannequin head.<\/p>\n ZHANG LUO TI off-screen (CONT’D)<\/p>\n This time is Liu Xuan.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cut scene. Jump in footage. The mannequin head is with Zhang Luo Ti. He voices for the mannequin head.<\/p>\n ZHANG LUO TI<\/p>\n (in a gentle, feminine voice)<\/p>\n Continue to watch Love Cuisine, everyone. Break three, break three, break three!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n SCHOOL CORRIDOR Allison Lin and Lego Li<\/p>\n Filming the scene where Fang Xiao Rou is in the corridor hearing scary knife sharpening sounds coming from the school’s kitchen classroom. Allison Lin as Fang Xiao Rou has her eyes in the direction of the kitchen classroom with a frightened expression. A voice through intercom comes through.<\/p>\n VOICE off-screen<\/p>\n Who’s head extended out?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin contorts her face in extreme dislike to the voice over the intercom.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to Allison Lin’s expression)<\/p>\n Hearing these sorts of words right now is especially terrifying.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cut scene to Lego Li in the shot of the school corridor with Allison Lin. Allison Lin has her eyes looking into the kitchen classroom off-screen on the left of the camera. Meanwhile, Lego Li is far in the background, pretending to be a ghoul. He shows fangs with his right hand up in the air, clawing.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to Lego Li)<\/p>\n Ghoul hand.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The soft and gentle school bell reverberates through the vicinity.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Bell sound… The perception is even more so with it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cut scene to the filming of Fang Xiao Rou scared out of her wits from sounds of footsteps and speedily walking out of the school corridor with Han Jie in pursuit. The sound of utensils falling onto the ground has Lego Li go out of character momentarily as he looks towards the sound that came from his right.<\/p>\n DIRECTOR off-screen<\/p>\n Okay.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Lego Li continues walking and passes the camera.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to Lego Li)<\/p>\n Where is he going?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Lego Li extends his arms outwards and brings his hands to claws like a ghoul. He continues to walk down the school corridor.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n He smells the scent of a human…<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Far off in the distance, Lego Li turns right and stops outside an opening. He throws his claw-like hands down. He grins widely as Allison Lin appears through the opening, laughing. They walk back towards the camera. Allison Lin does a delayed reaction: she leans backwards from Lego Li’s attack.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to the scene)<\/p>\n Twilight high school student.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Lego Li comes at the camera. He shows his teeth, brings his arms out, hands to claws and directs his attack onto the camera.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n This vampire is a little adorable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n LOUNGING AREA Lego Li<\/p>\n Lego Li rests on at a lounge sofa, eyes closed and (acting) drunk.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to Lego Li)<\/p>\n Not able to suck blood, he’s forced to be drunk.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n (complaining)<\/p>\n Argh! My head hurts. Do you know that?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Do you need me to go look for Xiao Rou for you?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cut and jump in time.<\/p>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n How much is it, today?—Bill, please. How much is it, today?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Interviewer asks someone for Lego Li.<\/p>\n INTERVIEWER<\/p>\n How much is it, today?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n How much is it, today?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n FEMALE VOICE off-screen<\/p>\n NT$31,000.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n 31,000!!!<\/p>\n (NB: NT$31 000 is ~US$950.00)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Lego Li bolts up, no longer drunk.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN<\/p>\n Sobers up in a matter of seconds.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n Oh, okay. Really? That expensive, huh?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n SCHOOL STEPS Lego Li<\/p>\n Lego Li moves his hands as if fishing. A female lady is seen standing behind him, smiling upon Lego Li’s actions and a crewmember is in front of Lego Li facing away and looking at the papers he has placed on the step walls.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Fishing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n ______<\/p>\n (NB: No Chinese subtitles to help us translate. Soundtrack overlapping dialogue and too quiet to hear.)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Camera loosens to reveal Allison Lin walking onto filming location at the steps.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Xiao Rou arrives.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cut scene to filming the scene at the school steps where Fang Xiao Rou is being followed by Han Jie and scared by the sound of his footsteps. Fang Xiao Rou screams from fear. Lego Li and Allison Lin block each other and they can’t do a graceful spin.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Block. Block.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cut to second take of the shot. Lego Li as Han Jie takes hold of Allison Lin as Fang Xiao Rou. All of the folders in Fang Xiao Rou’s hands drop to the ground. Another ungraceful turn.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Spinning again and again to get the spin graceful and circuling beautifully.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cut to third take of the shot. This time, Lego Li loses Allison Lin. Allison Lin makes a frightened sound, unsteady, falling.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to Lego Li’s actions)<\/p>\n Loses hold.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Lego Li is alarmed and immediately reacts with extending his hand towards Allison Lin, but he’s not in the correct standing position and she’s just out of his reach. Allison Lin stabilises herself by the time two crew members in front of her come in extending their hands to grab hold of her by the arms.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Momentarily alarmingly dangerous.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n MALE CREW MEMBER<\/p>\n Whoa, whoa, whoa. I’m here. I’m here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Lego Li has a slight embarrassed grin on his expression as he continues to keep his arm extended to the now stabilised Allison Lin.<\/p>\n Cut to fourth take of the shot.<\/p>\n DIRECTOR off-screen<\/p>\n 3, 2, okay.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Han Jie<\/p>\n Hey.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Han Jie taps Fang Xiao Rou on her left shoulder. Fang Xiao Rou screams in fright. Lego Li as Han Jie catches Allison Lin as Fang Xiao Rou and brings her into him and spins.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Spin. Spin. Spin. Spin.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The spin is particularly strong. The handbag hanging on Allison Lin’s right arm slaps and goes around a leg of Lego Li’s before relaxing into position back by Allison Lin’s side.<\/p>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n (with eyes squeezed shut)<\/p>\n God! That was so frightening!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Lego Li loosens the embrace. He looks to someone behind his left shoulder and defends the strong spin that Allison Lin was not happy about with a sheepish smile.<\/p>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n It was a great success, though.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cut to filming the scene after Han Jie saves Fang Xiao Rou from lurching forward and Fang Xiao Rou releases Han Jie from her deathly tight hold on him. Han Jie and Fang Xiao Rou are at the left-end area of the steps. Han Jie coughs and takes a moment to bring oxygen to his lungs. Fang Xiao Rou watches on apologetic and concerned.<\/p>\n FANG XIAO ROU<\/p>\n I’m sorry!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Han Jie coughs with incomplete responses. The director calls a cut. Lego Li keeps acting out of breath and in distress.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to Lego Li)<\/p>\n Continuing to act.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n A moment more of acting distressed from Lego Li before he shows a peace sign up and smiles. Allison Lin covers her small laughter towards Lego Li’s overacting with a hand.<\/p>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n (smiling sheepishly)<\/p>\n Back to normal.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cut to a small jump in time. Lego Li taps Allison Lin at her arms as he talks about an expression of his.<\/p>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n The mean expression I did before—<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Lego Li crosses his eyes and maintains it for the camera.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to Lego Li’s actions)<\/p>\n Suffocating to the point of crossing eyes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin covers her amusement with a hand over mouth.<\/p>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n It’s cute.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to Allison Lin’s comment)<\/p>\n Indeed, beauty is really in the eyes of the beholder.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n I did this expression just before. It’s true.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cut and jump in time.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Q: 轉風火輪時 what thoughts do you have?<\/p>\n (NB: Word for word translation of 轉風火輪時: switch to wind fire wheels period\/season<\/em>. The characters, 風火輪, together has a meaning of hot wheels or a transport device with wheels like a drift cycle, some other wheel-looking device\/thing that is speedy or swift. It’s even a martial arts weapon. We’re not picking up what thing the question is referring to, so unable to translate.)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n Go with the wind. I don’t have any other thoughts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n Go with the wind.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n Go, right?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n Take adversity in stride.<\/p>\n (NB: The dialogue was 逆來順受—an idiom. Other translations for this idiom: Resign oneself to adversity<\/em> \/ Take things as they come<\/em>.)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n (agreeing)<\/p>\n Mm.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Lego Li moves in front of the camera, beginning to walk away.<\/p>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n (affirming)<\/p>\n Mm.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n Caught it for him.<\/p>\n (NB: Not too sure if this is correct. We’re very lost and don’t have a clue to the topic of conversation currently going on between Lego Li and Allison Lin.)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Lego Li still passing the camera, makes a claw with his far hand.<\/p>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n Beast tamer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cut and jump in time. Lego Li is standing back at the centre area of the steps.<\/p>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n Ni Lai Shun Shou is a type of animal.<\/p>\n (NB: Ni Lai Shun Shou (逆來順獸), we have no idea what this is. We can only assume Lego Li is referring to a character in Chinese fiction.)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Ni Lai Shun Shou?!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n That’s why it’s called, Ni Lai Shun. Yes.<\/p>\n (NB: We have no idea why the animal is called Ni Lai Shun (逆來順). Word for word translation: negative<\/em>\/opposite<\/em>, come<\/em>\/arrive<\/em>, positive<\/em>\/go along with<\/em>. Lego Li’s following dialogue may enlighten.)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n LEGO LI off-screen<\/p>\n Will often meet.<\/p>\n (NB: May also be will often run into, encounter or come across<\/em>.)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Camera spins forward to Lego Li at the centre area of the steps, fixing the collar of his jacket.<\/p>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n We will often meet.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n A meaningful and profound metaphor.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Camera spins back to Allison Lin.<\/p>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n I originally wanted to ridicule.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin does a quick demonstration of Lego Li crossing his eyes.<\/p>\n ALLISON LIN (CONT’D)<\/p>\n How was that funny?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin hold back her laughter, stifling it with a hand to her mouth.<\/p>\n ALLISON LIN (CONT’D)<\/p>\n But now I find it super funny. This is the flavour of life.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cut to scene: Lego Li and Allison Lin sitting at the steps like men—legs apart and body leaning forward and leveraged by arms on legs, casual. Allison Lin’s expression and sitting position mimics Lego Li’s laid back expression and casual body language.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Brotherly love.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin notices her right foot is not at the same angle as Lego Li’s. She quickly adjusts it to match Lego Li’s and then resumes mimicking. Lego Li shifts his shoulders and arms to the left and right and repeats the action. Allison Lin mimics.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Don’t go. In the next section, watch how two people develop feelings in the kitchen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n (Intermission)<\/p>\n SCHOOL KITCHEN CLASSROOM Allison Lin<\/p>\n Allison Lin has a packet of food. She demonstrates her talent of throwing and catching food (some sort of dried fruit) she throws in the air with her mouth. Allison Lin smiles and shows a victorious gesture with her hands after she successfully does the trick.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Quirky trick.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n I’m very likely to catch these sort of things.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n SCHOOL KITCHEN CLASSROOM WORKSTATION Allison Lin and Lego Li<\/p>\n Allison Lin flours a rolled out dough on her workstation. Lego Li watches on. With a slow-witted and innocent expression, Allison Lin turns to Lego Li whilst she stamps her hands into the floured dough.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to Allison Lin’s actions)<\/p>\n Stain. Stain. Stain.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin\/Fang Xiao Rou pretends to be meeting Lego Li\/Han Jie for the first time.<\/p>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n (polite and courteous)<\/p>\n Hello. I’m Xiao Rou.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin extends her hands covered in flour towards Lego Li for a handshake. Lego Li doesn’t move to take the hand. He simply looks at it, smiling slightly.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to Lego Li)<\/p>\n Don’t think so!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin retracts her hand. She talks to the camera.<\/p>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n This person is so petty. With the handshake of the first meeting, he doesn’t even take it and shake it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin returns to playing with the dough below her, patting it. Lego Li continues to watch on with a smile.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to Lego Li)<\/p>\n Not concerned.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin shrugs and accepts being shunned. She cutely smiles and flours the dough for the camera. Allison Lin imitates a line from Han Jie’s character trailer for Love Cuisine.<\/p>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n “I am the heavenly dish in the cuisine world—Oscar Han.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Cut and jump in time. Allison Lin imitates Lego Li in the seafood market fish ball segment of the Behind the Scenes for Episode 2<\/a>.<\/p>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n Imitating the fish paste he made last time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin picks up bits of dough and forcefully chucks it onto the workstation. She turns to Lego Li and directs him a deathly glare.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to Allison Lin’s expression)<\/p>\n Be afraid!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Lego Li is calm and unaffected. Allison Lin chucks another piece of dough onto the workstation and directs Lego Li a more deathly glare.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (speaking in place of Allison Lin)<\/p>\n How come he’s not afraid?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin continues to glare at Lego Li and chucks another piece of dough—this time slightly weaker. Lego Li begins to crack a smile.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n There’s feelings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin chucks dough again. Lego Li continues to watch and smile. Allison Lin chucks one more time. The dough bounces into her chest and deflects and lands back onto the countertop. Allison Lin grabs the dough back, unimpressed with no reaction from Lego Li. (Allison Lin says something at this point, but no subtitles and couldn’t make it out based on what she said. Most likely commenting on the bouncing dough). She gives up and simply brushes and cleans the mess up below on the countertop.<\/p>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n It gets more energetic and lively each time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n Really?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n LEGO LI<\/p>\n It’s cute.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n ALLISON LIN<\/p>\n (excited and lively)<\/p>\n Really? I’m so happy!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin turns to scare Lego Li with hugging him with her floured hands. Lego Li shirks away immediately, laughing and expressing unwillingness to have her go anywhere near him with her flour-covered hands.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n Avoid.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Allison Lin faces the camera, grinning with amusement.<\/p>\n Cut and jump in time. Lego Li and Allison Lin busily working on their dough at each of their workstations. Lego Li rolls back up his rolled-out dough with one hand.<\/p>\n ON-SCREEN TEXT<\/p>\n (referring to Lego Li)<\/p>\n Very serious.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Lego Li squeezes and shapes the dough.
