A man like that orders whiskey
Not tap water
A new flavor and brand every day
He's not looking for innocence

Have sex?
Sex?
I don't think you've heard me properly
I've never been in love
I said "sex", not "love"
I never fall in love either
Sex?
Sex
But we don't even know each other
If you're going to be so stuck up about it
why don't we kust "fuck" ', 'get laid"
whatever you want
But this way...
You're no better than an animal?
You're no better than an animal!
That's why I'm the "Beast-Man"
Mr. Beast...
I believe in making love
Only with my true love

Have you found true love so far?
Not yet
So...
Let's become friends first!
Friends first?
You've been watching too much TV!
And what's this?
Are you a fossil?

You actually study in your sleep
That's not the point

Hi, I'm Shaun
Hi, Shaun
Excuse me
No water in the shower
No water? Let me check
Careful
Sorry
Let me help
You ready to go?
Sorry
You may think I'm kealous...
But I'm not
If you could do one night stands...
But you can't
If this wasn't your first time...
But it is
Bai Tieh Nan...
Really? But he's really...
not too bad
Tell him the truth about that playboy!
Who, me?
Of course you, who else?
Let me think
It was a dark and stormy night in 1 973
and a baby Prince Charming was born
Get to the point!
In the beginning
Bai was an innocent boy
When he was 17
he met another prince charming: Jay
Jay!
Don't interrupt!
It was Love at first sight
Heaven and earth moved for them
Soon they fell head over heels
Then Jay wanted to break up
Why?
Because of one little word
"C'est la vie"
Wait a second!
You said they broke up over one word
But "c'est la vie" is 3 words!
Shut up, I'm not finished!
Turns out Jay dumped Bai for a rich guy
and that one little word was named Jun!
To get back at Jay, Bai seduced Jun
First rivals, then lovers
He did it kust to punish Jay
But later, Bai changed
His heart died
He stopped believing in love
Nobody can ever make him love again!
So many beautiful youths were
destroyed by his pitch black heart!
Now you know
You changed shifts
I don't know how to say this
I've had this problem for a long time
Before, I didn't mind...
but now...
Mr. Bai, I think you're in love.
In love?
Yes
You can have sex
but you're afraid to kiss
That's rather peculiar
Let's do a little exercise
Exercise?
Here's a mirror.
Does it have to be this big?
The treatment requires it
Starting now
Practice kissing into the mirror
You can pretend it's anybody
Right now?
Well done.
Who did you see in the mirror?
Myself
You're not playing with me, right?
Many patients have done this exercise
Really?
Yes
When?
Before they fell in love
Yu?
Yu!
It's his "man", isn't it?
Keep your voice down
Who lS he?
I know this guy!
It was a cool afternoon
in May 2002...
Get to the point!
Hurry!
Here we are at Shalung beach
Once we go in
I don't know you, ok?
You're on your own
If you get lucky and want to leave
kust send me a message
bye bye!
Sorry!
What?
Hurry up!
You can't kust abandon me!
You promised not to be clingy!
Clingy?
What do you want?
You promised sisterhood!
So?
At least show me around once
You said it
Once
Give me your hands!
Turn around!
That's it?
CC!
I'm fine, thank you. And you?
I'm fine, thanks.
I'm Ray. And you?
And you?
Still Ray. And you?
Are you alone?
Are you?
You?
Yeah...
Yeah?
Yeah.
Me too.
It's nice to be alone... but
it's nice to find someone not to be alone with
Me?
Yeah, you.
Yeah!
Ok?
Ok!
We started going out
We had faith that true love
can overcome any distance
Me?
Yeah, you!
Then what happened?
Like all long-distance relationships
he got so busy with work
it was hard to keep in touch
I started having doubts
If I couldn't reach him
I got insecure and depressed
In the end, we both got so tired
Showtime!
Mr. Bai, did the exercise help?
Not really...
I see
According to rules, for the next level
You need a body
A body?
No!
- You... - You...
- You go first - You go first
What do you want to say?
Just say it! Young people these days!
What are you doing later?
He asks what you're doing later
My buddy's heartbroken, I'm going home
Huh?
He's heartbroken and going home
Heartbroken?
Young man, give me your card
What? I'm too old for you?
Of course not
He wants you to call him
Here's a tip, young man
A broken heart is easy to steal
Don't miss your chance!
bye bye!
You're back?
You're alive!
I've finally realized
Men are all...
... shit!
Whatcha doing?
Nothing
Hi, Jeremy
It's Jimmy
Sorry, Jimmy.
Tommy
It's Tom.
Tom...
You didn't call me
I was going to call
But...?
But I didn't
Because?
Because my friend was sad
And...?
And he says men are shit
Then...
I lost your card
Are you off work now?
I'll drive you home
I got my scooter
Keys!
Let's go?
Let's go
I've heard a lot of gossip about you
Really?
Is it true?
Which part?
For example...
I have a buddy too but he doesn't follow me to the shower
Are you kealous?
No... of course not...
Wait a second!
Sorry.
Forget it
Did you two ever?
Have sex?
We're best friends and we work together
Impossible
What about you?
You were heartbroken...?
No, my roommate, not me
I thought it was you, and wanted to...
Steal my heart?
No...
to talk you through
Are you out of your mind?
I'm your friend, why wouldn't I help?
When did I ever beg you for anything?
But I can't kiss you
You don't have to, kust let me kiss YOU
The doctor says if I don't do this
everything else I've done is wasted
Is that so?
I think it's working
Don't you think I've changed?
Doesn't matter what I think
What matters is what HE thinks
So you're not going to help me?
Fine, kust do it!
I can't, still can't...
Honestly, is he right for me?
Honestly?
I think... That gym teacher was right for you!
He was bald!
But he loved you!
Who knows who's right?
If you love him, then he's right for you
When I first met Ray
I asked myself the same question
And?
And...
If this stops you from loving him
you probably don't love him enough
Why ask the question then?
Because you love him!
Wait...that doesn't make sense
Love...
never makes sense
I want ice cream!
Ok...want to come in?
Did you...
See anything kust now?
No
Did you?
See anything?
No
Let's stop pretending
It's tiring
What's wrong?
You want to shower?
You first
Ok, I'm first
Greetings, Mr. Bai!
You're waiting for Richard?
Well... it's complicated
He's at my place right now
Some things are hard to explain...
Hard for him to explain
That's why I'm here
He hopes you don't misunderstand
Misunderstand?
Please tell Mr. Bai...
this kind of misunderstanding...
won't happen again!
Are you all right?
What did you say to him?
I said you're at my place
and don't misunderstand...
"Don't misunderstand"?
He's nuts if he doesn't!
You're the one who's nuts!
And make me clean up your mess!
As if I want to!
Then don't get involved!
What else did he say?
He said "Enough!"
That's it?
Hurry, I'll tell you later
Did he say anything else?
Yes, he said
This misunderstanding won't happen again
It's over!
If we miss the plane, we're both over!
Hurry up!
Great timing for a business trip!
Great timing to fall in love!
Hurry!
The number you're calling is turned off
Please try again later
He's not going to see me again
What about you?
You want to see him again?
You know I do
But he doesn't know that
Why can't I be with
the one I love?
You're the one stopping yourself
I can't take it
Then don't fall in love
Are you better off now?
Tien doesn't know our plan, right?
Don't worry...
I rented three DVDs for him
to watch and kill time
They won't provoke him?
Don't worry
They're all safe movies
"The Ring" ', 'Bride of Chucky"
and "Freddy vs. Jason"
nothing to do with love!
Aren't these movies too scary?
Nothing's scarier than heartbreak!
Just my opinion
Nothing can go wrong, right?
Unless Jason falls in love with Freddy
Action!
Sorry... what do you want?
You lying bastard!
Speak Mandarin!
I said "are you ok?"
I said "I'm ok, it's cold"
Fine!
How's my make-up?
How's mine?
Tell us everything!
You!
Me?
Once upon a time
there was a legendary figure called
Bai Tieh Nan
also known as Mr. Irresistible
His deadliest move was called
"Never Bed Twice"
Though many youths were warned
Still they could not resist
As always, Bai sleeps with them...
walks out, and never comes back
But actually,
Bai's heartless behavior
is not without reason
It's because of many tragic events
This child is cursed
Whatever he loves will be doomed
The fortune teller was right
His fish, his flowers, his first love
proved Bai's fate
Whatever he loves
ends up with bad luck
Eventually, to avoid this,
he became a serial one-night-stander
and lost the power to love
Because of these events in the past
Bai is super superstitious
But from a scientific point of view
this is a case of "fear of intimacy"
Whether it's fear or fate
I did one thing wrong
You left him?
I fell in love with him and hurt him
Cantonese again!
I'm calling Tien!
Welcome
You have reached Yu's
Love Shack of Do Re Mi
Please leave your height weight
sign and blood type after "mi"
do...re...mi...
Tien!
We've captured Bai!
We don't understand what he's saying
You better come and listen yourself!
Hello?
Tien!
He hates pain, he won't kill himself
Maybe he's gone back south
We'll be able to reach him later
I think you're kust a coward!
What's Fate got to do with it?
If you're afraid of getting hurt,
kust bloody admit it!
Don't blame Fate for your love problem!
And then mope about in regret!
Bai, let me tell you!
Your life's not cursed!
It's your heart!
What am l, a doorbell?
Dear God, my name is Bai Tieh Nan
I'm not religious, so I rarely pray
There's a thing called Love in the world
But you must have courage to see it
I never had it before, but now I do
Please give me a chance
I'm not greedy
I'll count to 1 0... and give up
1...2...3...4...
5...6...7...8...
9...1 0...
Tien!
What are they doing?
Just kiss him!
That's the way to go!
I have a problem!
I love you!
...you're crazy!
And I hate you!
Tien!
I found the answers to your questions
sin2+cos2 equals one
The seven warring lords are...
Han, Zhao, Wei, Chu...
Yen, Chi, Chin
The 3 tenses of the word "love" are
Iove, love, love
Don't you add "-ed"?
Shut up!
You see...
Even love can pass away
But... we can run after it
Run?
And chase it back
My feet are tired
I'll carry you
Tien!
Bye bye virginity!
If you wanna be proud of being gay
And be all that you can be
You gotta start living like one
The first step-
Change outside, change inside
You're still wearing grandpa's shorts?
You won't find a bed in Taipei!
Look, this is what it takes!
