Speech of Silence~Episode 11

Kenneth said to Mary that he knew a really good kidney doctor, so that she wouldn’t have to wait for Dr. Wong, but Mary straight out said no. When she told Kate to wipe the knife to cut the cake, Kate cut her finger. Mary rushed over to dab off the blood with a cotton ball and then put it into a little tube. She had actually made the edges of the knife jagged on purpose so that Kate would cut herself.

Kenneth said that it was strange how Mary refused to see another doctor and that it was unusual that she was coming back to Hong Kong to look for a doctor. Usually, people with sicknesses went overseas.

In the lifts, Kate’s dad saw Mary going up and got really mad when he saw her having lunch with Kate.

Cheung 哥 took Claire’s family to a rich people’s party. 小生 tried to play with the other children but they all said he was poor and had no right to play with them. When小生 got hit by another boy, Cheung哥 didn’t stick up for小生. In fact, he even tried to hit him.

The next day, 小生 left school all by himself and went to the parks. Kenneth found him and小生 said he wanted Kenneth to be his dad. 小生’s dad is really rich, but his parents didn’t want him to marry Claire. He gave up Claire for money.

Mary persuaded Kate to go with her to America because she was the only person in the family who had an appropriate kidney for her brother. Kate’s dad and Kenneth burst in at that time. Kenneth told Kate that Mary was trying to trick her along. Even meeting her again was planned. Mary had paid the cooking teacher at the DRC so that she could take the job. That way, she’d get to see Kate. The car that almost hit Mary and Kate the time they met was actually hired by Mary.

Photobucket

When Kate found out that her mum had come back only to get Kate to donate her kidney, she was really upset. However, she believed that as long as she was able to save a life, she would be willing to go back with Mary.

Photobucket

I agree, besides it was her brother that was dying. Though Mary made me really angry. She had given up on her daughter all those years ago, never planned to come back, except for when she’s troubled and wants Kate to do something for her. Doesn’t she realize how much she’s hurting Kate by doing something like that?

Speech of Silence~Episode 10

At a QQ妹 promotion, Chris saw someone with a cap on walk up to Elaine and hug her or something. Thinking it was a man, he jumped on top of her and pinned her to the ground, knocking down the fortune wheel and the whole table of noodles.

Elaine was waiting outside to apologise to Herbert when Chris came up to her in a motorbike. He told her that he had taken the blame and that nothing was going to happen to her. Just then, Herbert’s car came by, with a girl inside it. Elaine got onto Chris’ motorbike and told him to chase them.

Chris started imagining that it was their wedding and they were riding on his motorbike. He snapped out of it when Elaine told him to stop as Herbert’s car was nowhere to be seen. She shouted at him and said that he was totally useless, that’s why he has to ride a slow, old motorbike for his life. Chris finally had enough and rode off, leaving her in the middle of nowhere.

Mary took Kate to a café and Kate said she remembered having been there before. They ordered all of Kate’s favourite foods and Mary asked Kate where her own mum is. Kate said she had run away when she was little. Mary then asked her when she became deaf. Kate said when she was 8. She also said that the milk tea there wasn’t that great and that her dad’s was much better. Mary blurted out the name of her dad’s shop, so clearly, her prediction that Kate is her daughter had been confirmed.

Photobucket

The man at the restaurant the other day proposed to Claire. What the?! They didn’t even know each other that well!!! Claire said that she would have to consult with her family as getting married was a big thing. Kenneth was waiting for Claire when she got out of the car. He told her that he didn’t agree with her marrying the guy.

At the DRC, Kate picked up Mary’s wallet and saw her own picture inside. She told Kenneth to sit down and told him that she thinks Mary is her mum.

Photobucket

When Kate went to look for Mary at the DRC, the receptionist said that Mary had quit the job. She and Kenneth rushed to where Mary lived and saw her crossing the road. When she tried to stop her, they didn’t notice a car coming their way. Mary quickly pushed Kate aside and fell down herself.

Kate asked her why she did all those things like order her favourite foods and risk her life before. Kate said she knew, she knew that Mary was her mum. Mary turned away, crying saying that she had no right to be her mum. Then the mother and daughter embraced. Mary then told Kate that she had come back to Hong Kong to look for a famous kidney specialist to save Kate’s brother, who was 15.

Photobucket

Kenneth asked Kate how she could pretend nothing had happened when her mum had been so selfish and left her behind all those years ago. Kate said that it was such a long time ago, and besides, it is painful to remember unhappy memories. They then cut to Mary talking on the phone, saying to go with the original plan... oh I bet she’s going to trick Kate into giving her money or something.

Speech of Silence~Episode 9

As Kate is looking at her phone sadly, Kenneth comes in with Chris! Chris goes into the kitchen with Kate’s dad and Kenneth and Kate sit outside.
Kate: ‘You really aren’t going to go back to the studio?’
Kenneth: ‘Oh, yeah, now that I’m, not here, how’s my aunt going?’
Kate: ‘Of course all muddled up. And you, just to hide away from someone, you don’t even go back to the studio. Isn’t there anything there that you’ll miss?’
Kenneth: ‘Yeah. I lent 秋水哥 $20 and he still hasn’t paid me back. An you- you bought me the throat soothing 八仙果... I still haven’t finished eating those.

Photobucket

Chris sees Elaine and tells her all about getting to be QQ妹 again. When she gets there, the manager Ah Joe makes her wear a very short dress and she blurts out: ‘After all, I am the QQ妹! How can you make me walk around Honk Kong like this?!’ Then the manager says you’re only a ‘noodle angel’. She says she’ll think about the job and leaves. As she walks to the lift, she sees Herbert going in and asks him to wait up.

They get trapped in the lift and start playing ‘Bomberman’ together. Elaine decided to take the job even with low salary because she believed fate had brought them together and that he was testing to see if she had potential to be his girlfriend. Gosh, this girl thinks wayy too much. Elaine tells Kate that if she wants a chance with Kenneth, she has to ask him out.

So the next day, she asks Kenneth to help out at the DRC with her. While there, Kenneth helps put out a small fire in the cooking classroom. The teacher, played by Mary, helps Kate bandage her burnt hand. Mary says that she is about the same age as her own daughter. Mary then asked her what her name was and when she heard, she seemed a bit surprised. Kate is probably the daughter she was talking about.

Lau Dan accidentally bumped into Celine and when he tried to help her and accidentally touched her hand, she said he was harassing him. She told the rest of the voiceover team that he had stolen $1000 from her and they all blamed laud an except for Kate, who tried to stand up for him. In Lau Dan’s wallet, they did find $1000 but it had been given to him by Kingdom. Yu Yang brought out $1000, claiming that he had found it, but later on said that he had done it to shut the others up. Lau Dan said that he had only wanted to give back to his son and felt bad that the others were arguing because of him and decided to leave.

Kate ran after him and said: ‘But don’t you want to see your son?’
Lau Dan said he didn’t know what he could do anymore. He didn’t even have the ability to look for a job. Kate took him to her dad’s shop and gave him a job there. Kate said that if he wanted to give back to his son, he could finish off the puzzle that he and Kenneth never finished. They stayed up all night and finally finished it in the mornin

When Kenneth saw it and found out it was Lau Dan who had finished it, he threw it onto the floor and smashed it. Kingdom ran after him and said why he have to be so stubborn. Kenneth said that he was never going to forgive him and told her to tell Kate to stop helping him. Kingdom said that Kate was not only trying to help Lau Dan but also him.

Kenneth: ‘Why does she have to interfere with everything?’
Kingdom: ‘Yes, why does she have to do this? There are many people on the streets, why doesn’t she help them? One girl, staying up all night on a cold night, finishing a puzzle piece by piece, you think, what is she doing it for???’

Photobucket

Chris and Kenneth decided to test if Kate liked him. Chris videoed Kate wiping herself with Kenneth’s towel and drinking from the same can as him. Chris said that he would put it up on the net to see whether others also thought she liked him. Kenneth told him to be quiet because it wouldn’t be nice if Kate found out they were testing her. Kate was actually eavesdropping on their conversation the whole time. Chris said it didn’t matter as she wouldn’t be able to hear much anyway. He asked Kenneth if he liked her or not. Kenneth said that Chris shouldn’t do anything until all is clear and that it’s kinda hard to say these things as he doesn’t want to lose Kate as a friend. Kate goes and never gets to hear what Chris asks Kenneth next. Chris: ‘Look at me; don’t you like her even a little bit?’ Kenneth: ‘Well, Kate is quite OK. She and I are quite compatible, but I don’t really know if that’s classified as liking her.’ Chris: ‘Look at you, all confused. I tell you, you do. Kenneth: ‘Well, whether I do or not, I’m scared that it is just me thinking too much.’

Photobucket

Kate took him to have a romantic dinner and made it clear that she was only doing it for the meal and that she doesn’t like him. Aww so sad, she did it in fear of rejection, but she doesn’t know that Kenneth actually does like her. As they go their separate ways to leave, they both stop and turn around at different times.

Episodes: 41

Trailer: [Thanks to idlemindsehseh.blogspot.com]




Synopsis.Plot: The new series will focus on Lee Sze Kei getting her family back together in the background of bakery business. A big emphasize is put on Lee Sze Kei's relationship with her husband Ha Yu and kids Moses Chan, Raymond Lam, Tavia Yeung, Fala Chen, Lai Lok Yi, Vincent Wan and Ha Yu's stepdaughter Linda Chung, besides her relationship with her adversary Michelle Yim and sister Susanna Kwan.

Romantic plots include Kate Tsui (Susanna Kwan's daughter) fighting against Tavia Yeung for Moses Chan, whilst she will also be involved with Chris Lai. There will be conflict between Raymond Lam and Bosco Wong (Linda Chung's colleague) for Linda Chung as Bosco Wong interferes as the third party between the loving pair. Susanna Kwan's character will have "sister-brother" relationship with Wayne Lai and Louis Yuen, meanwhile Fala Chen in her challenging role as a 'mute' girl will be romantically linked with Dexter Young.

Throughout the series, Lee Sze Kei will try to run a steady business on her own in a bakery shop while her other family members live out a dream life with a billion-dollar fortune and big house. Lee Sze Kei has the custody of Raymond Lam, Tavia Yeung and Fala Chen, whilst Ha Yu has the other children. The series also focuses on Susanna Kwan, from her good heart, plotting "evil" ideas to get the family back together, while Michelle Yim plots to have the family stay apart from each other. Lee Heung Kam doesn't make things any easier as she prefers his son (Ha Yu) to have Michelle as his wife than Lee Sze Kei. They frequently call Lee, "that fat thing" and family problems will arise when the family meet each other again.

Thoughts: OMG!!! This long anticipated series is finally released! I think everyone's gone MR mad ever since the news spread there was going to be a second HOG. I appreciate that they are keeping the original cast, and even though it has a similar theme to HOG, its storyline differs. I have hope in this series, in that it will be as good as its prequel, maybe even better.

Thoughts: Will I watch it? Yes. I like Myolie and I have been awaiting a comeback from Gallen Lo. I thouroughly enjoyed watching Old Time buddies. He and Francis Ng were a good pair for the comedy. I also loved him in The 'W' Files playing Wei Si Lei. I am glad he had decided to stay and film a 41 episode series! Iwonder what series it is? Does anyone know?

Speech of Silence~Episode 8

Please SCRO__ down for SOS Ep. 8 summs. Soz if I haven't been posting muchh! I have such a BUSY life at school :( Hmph. But good news, I've handed in my prac report and now only... TWO more assignments to hand in!!!

Kenneth looked like he had no problem with it, but he played pranks on his dad when everyone already hated him. When he stormed out, he and Kate saw a little kid left in the car by his dad. He smashed the window to help the little kid out and yelled at the dad for being irresponsible.

Kary really hated her mean manager at the shop, so she quit the job because she believed she was going to be ‘rich’. At the night of the QQ妹 finals, Chris came up to her and asked her if he didn’t have money, would she still be friends with him. Of course, Elaine lied, thinking he was testing her.

Photobucket


When it came to the actual competing, while Elaine was performing, she noticed that Chris wasn’t Herbert. He was in fact right at the back, cheering for her like a maniac and getting dragged out by the security guards!!! She totally lost concentration and fell down. Queenie ended up winning the competition.

Photobucket


Chris ran after her afterwards, telling her that failure is the mother of success and that next time, she will definitely win. Even when Elaine pushed him face first into the dirt, he still didn’t get mad, and said that she only did that because she was angry. -

Photobucket


Kenneth’s granddad knew that Lau Dan had come back so banned Kenneth from going back to the voiceover studio. When he came back to the studio to pack his things, he made it very clear that unless Lau Dan left, he would never come back. When 秋水哥 did the recording instead of Kenneth, Kate looked at him like he was Kenneth.

As Queenie herself was not enough to promote the brand, they asked two more girls to come back, one of them being Elaine. Kenneth told Chris so that h could go and tell her the good news and then maybe she will like him again.

Photobucket


Kate’s dada noticed that the past few days, Kate had been looking at her phone a lot. Probably, waiting for Kenneth to call!
Dad: ‘Where’s OK仔? Aren’t you two going out? Why don’t you bring him home?’
Kate: ‘I said we’re not dating.’
Dad: ‘Really? Well then I guess it was my mistake.’
Kate: ‘He doesn’t come to work anymore. I don’t even know when I’ll get to see him again.’

Speech of Silence~Episode 7

Thanks to Kenneth, Elaine gets into the finals for the QQ妹代言人 competition. Elaine phones Chris and asks him out to dinner to thank him. The whole time, he stutters one syllable answers to her question. So funny to watch him!

Chris got all dressed up in Kenneth’s tux and slicked his hair back for his date with Elaine. Kenneth even leant him his car so he would look good for the date. Haha, I just can’t help but crack up at how polite he was. He kept on complimenting Elaine with 4-letter 成語!

Photobucket

When they had some sort of sea food in a shell, he kept on dropping them when trying to pick them up with his chopsticks. Elaine had thought that he liked to have a low profile, so she had taken him to a stall to eat and ate with her hands.

Photobucket

When Elaine accidentally spilt something onto a man’s girlfriend’s skirt and they started an argument, Chris ‘showed his true self’ and the two of them quickly went away. Then realising that Elaine was watching him, he explained that he is normally a very well-behaved person and likes to go to libraries and all that.

Photobucket

When Elaine left, she told him to call her Kary. Chris then said: ‘Well then you can call me-'
‘Well, then I’ll call you Herbert from now on.’ Then she kissed him on the cheek and left. Chris finally realized that she had mistaken him for Herbert all along.

Photobucket

小生 had hit his head onto a brick wall because he was skating too fast, so Kenneth took him and Elaine to the hospital. Elaine was frantic with worry and said that she could donate blood as she was his mum. The doctor said he was fine and then she realised that now Kenneth knew, but he promised not to tell.

Kenneth and Kate had to go up to Kingdom’s flat to get a tape, so Kingdom told Lau Dan to go out and hide. In a hurry, he accidentally, locked himself in the room. Unfortunately, Kenneth found him, but with a ‘mask’ on. He called himself 七哥. Too bad he called Kenneth 言仔, and nobody calls him that except for his dad. Kenneth then recognised him as the voice on the tape and in the surveillance camera of the lift, he saw that it really was his dad. But he didn’t go after him...

Photobucket

Kate told Kingdom anyway and they both organized a day together. Kenneth left angrily and told Kingdom to stop it, and that he recognised him. That night Lau Dan left and slept in cardboard boxes out n the streets.

Ben told Yu Yang that he had to go to a wedding on the day of a recording, and asked Kenneth to do it instead. He said that Kenneth and Kate would be great as a ‘couple’. Irene ran in and said that Kingdom had brought a man to the studio. That man was of course Lau Dan and he was going to be joining the voiceover team. Everyone turned their backs on him and even kind of groaned.

Linda Chung bEcOmEs a SINGER, Raymond Lam taught her sTrEsS mAnAgEmEnT

Linda Chung was present at the press conference of "Operation Relief - Send Love to Sichuan Concert" organised by the Hong Kong Girl Scouts yesterday. The organisers announced that the concert will be taking place on the date of 10th August at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. The performers includes Alan Tam,Miriam yeung,Kenny Bee,Shirley Kwan,Hins Cheung,Stephanie Cheng and Linda Chung.

Linda Chung will appear as an identity of a singer to sing alongside with Hins Cheung. Asked if rumoured boyfriend Raymond Lam will donate money to get the ticket of the concert and appear to show his support? Linda says "Raymond will support even if i don't ask him,i will invite every friends to do charity together."

Raymond Lam said Linda Chung's Chicken Voice Had Disappeared

Evident that Linda and Raymond's relationship is close. Linda's first music album will be out during the mid of August. She scrupled to say Raymond Lam and his family members have heard her album and praised her voice for being melodious and tuneful,which is different to the 'chicken voice'. Linda also asked Raymond about the stress management of singers,she says "An artiste becoming a singer needs to face alot of stress. It will be difficult to jump out of the circles,time will be needed for the people to accept."

Thoughts: Hah! Not long ago, they were both denying any rumours that they were a couple, now, they don't seem to mind as much. Is it for publicity? I think they are a totally cute couple? I mean, it makes perfect sense if they are dating. I can't wait for Linda's debut album. I heard she's going to have an 'angelic' kind of image. Hopefully, if her singing career goes well, she will have concerts and she and Raymond can sing together!!! <<-_Go RAYDA_->>

Kevin Cheng Many Excuses to AVOID quitting SMOKING

AS OF TOMORROW my posts will on Speech of Silence (wow, haven't called it by name in ages, always SOS) and Forensic Heroes II (eeek taking me so long. Guess I'm just being lazy coz I already finished watyching...) will be inconsistent and prob waaay behind. Argh, two weeks?! That was like a minute of freedom and I'm back already! Hmph. Anyways please scroll down for just posted SOS and FHII posts.


Two days ago, Kevin Cheng and Wong Hei were filming for "Burning Flames III", a scene where there was an traffic accident. There were fire engines, ambulances and police cars present. They were filming in Aberdeen Harbour.

Yesterday big sweater Kevin Cheng was in his firefighter's costume waiting for the filming to start, just sitting and waiting he was full of sweat, he said: "I have high blood pressure, so having to wear the firefigher's uniform and going into the fire is quite hard for me! (How do you prevent heat stroke?) Have a bottle of iced water with me at all times! Also find an area with shade to rest."

Speaking of him falling back into the smoker population again, he expresses that he is regretful, but he has not planned to quit yet: "can't quit yet because if I do, I'll turn fat and afraid I won't be able to connect with the series [like his look won't be consistent]. After the filming of this series ends I will try to quit again!" Wong Hei expresses that after suffering from high attitude sickness, he has become very cautious of his health, such as buying more hospitalization and medical insurance.

Thoughts: I am SHOCKED. He is my second favourite actor after Raymond Lam. Now I find out he smokes and it totally ruins his perfect image that I hacve of him. And he's so good looking too... aren't smokers meant to have yellow teeth and bad breath. Happened to my uncle. I wish he owuld stop... so bad for his health and I don't think that its great for his reputation either. They always say that there are some actors who smoke but hide it, or not many people know. But I never even dreamt that Kevin would be one of them. So disappointed. CALL QUITLINE! I still have FAITH in you!!!
