[Litter to Glitter] [Episode 1] [New Comer in the Hovel] What happened here? Obviously, Ms. Chen and her crew filmed here. A crime TV show. Based on the set,
It’s a crime scene. I’m thirsty. Have some beer. Stop saying that word. You’re making me… sick. Those people filmed in our inn and made a mess. They didn’t clean it up or pay us. What were they thinking? How could they do this? They’re used to taking advantage of us.
Why is there a chicken at the crime scene? It’s the eyewitness. Are you nuts? Absolutely! What the hell are you doing? Washing my hair. Somehow the water was cut off again before I finished. That’s nothing new. It’s the pipe again. I’ll go fix it. Who got this pizza? [Domino’s]
Can you fix it or not? It’s been half an hour. He’s not working on the pipe but probably praying for water. Stop arguing! I know what’s wrong. Me too. We haven’t paid three months’ water bills and got shut off. [Amount Due: ¥896.53] Gosh, that’s a lot! You bet. It’s commercial water.
We couldn’t even afford water but you squandered money on drinks yesterday? He got dumped by Anqi. I didn’t. She didn’t mean it. She hasn’t seen you for a month. Is that a new game she invented? It’s all your fault, Yuan Zhijie! Why didn’t you pay the bills?
Aren’t you in charge of our money? I am, but where’s the money? You’re to blame! Hu Yanzu, you’re the cleaner. What did you do? Why bother cleaning this place? We got no guests. No one came because you didn’t do your job! Come on, Fang Tianyi! You’re the boss! You suck at management.
That’s why we have no guests. No guests, no service. Hu Yanzu, watch your tone! Is that how you speak to your boss? You’re terrible! What’s that attitude? You didn’t teach me anything! Are you blaming me? I… – He’s shushing you! – It’s you! I’m shushing both of you! Listen. What’s that?
A baby, I guess. So cute! How chubby she is! Don’t touch her. We don’t know whose baby is this. Some guest must’ve left her here. No way! Our last guest came five months ago. She’s about that age. Use your head for once! How could a baby take care of herself for five months?
We’re almost 30 and we can barely do that. Where’s her parents? Fang Tianyi. Fang Tianyi. [BIG FISH] What’s up, Qiang? Nothing special. It’s just that one of our A-listers is taking a nap at your place. Be quiet. Don’t wake the kid up. OK. That’s it. Gotta go and be a corpse.
Hold on, man. Which A-lister? That baby. That baby? You’re doing this again! That you use our place as a free hotel room. But this time, it’s too… Just do me a favor. Listen, if that kid is unhappy, we’ll be doomed. Gotta run. Filming is about to begin. Can’t be late for death.
Hey, Qiang… Don’t break my blood pack. Watch it! I… That little one is an A-lister? Impressive! Qiang also warned us not to upset her. She’s crying. Is there any way to make her stop? A fat cheque? Is she uncomfortable and crying nonstop? What’s that smell? I smelled nothing. Nothing?
There are diapers in the bag. Go get it! Here you are. Take this. Why? Aren’t you the cleaner? Get rid of this trash. You’re the money boy. That pile of gold is your business. What are you numbnuts waiting for? It stinks! Get it out now! – Go. – Yeah. Yeah. It smells! Yeah.
Tianyi hates that smell the most. Is it dry or wet waste? Whatever! Just throw it in the bin. I need wet wipes. Wet… Yanzu, Zhijie, you jerks! Come back! I need wet wipes! Yeah, yeah, yeah. Be good. You’re finally quiet, Missy. Where are you guys going? I got a gig, a big one,
And I’ll get paid today. Then we can pay the water bills. Feel free to wash your hair tonight. It’s on me. What about you? I’m hired to write a script. Shower is on you. Aren’t you cheap? Wait, hold on. So you think you’re busy but I’m not, yeah? Correct. Wasn’t your production canceled?
No, it was postponed. So you’re free now. Wait, if you leave, who will babysit her? She’s in your arms. You tell me. You should be honored. Stop. Look, she’s crying again. I’ve been holding her all day. My back is sore! What did you do? Do that again! Clearly, you have a gift!
She’s growing on you. You don’t need us. Whoever saw his posture would call him a loving father. See you, father. Hey… Come back. Later, dad. Duty calls. Hu Yanzu, what are you doing up there? Mr. Wang, I’ve come up with a set of moves for the next scene. Let me show you.
Maybe later. Our investor Boss Dan is gonna play a guest role. I’d like to introduce you to him. Thanks. Appreciated. Don’t keep him waiting. Come down quickly. Yeah. Hello, Boss Dan. Let me introduce to you the actor you’re gonna work with. [Killer Dan] Hello, Boss Dan. What…? What does he mean? Boss Dan…
Sorry… What happened? Yeah, what happened? I’m asking you! Me? You’re so slow. Boss Dan just called you hot. You should’ve thanked him. When did he say that? Did I miss anything? Didn’t he make this gesture? Like this… Couldn’t he say it? You know he’s doing talk shows,
So he speaks as little as possible after work. If he doesn’t speak to me, how could I get what he means? Is this so difficult to understand? How about this? Just read his eyes. His eyes? I can’t even find where they are. Beat him! Me? What’s he doing? Cut!
Sorry, Boss Dan needs a break. You guys take five. What did you do? – That’s your man? – Sorry, my bad. – Go fix it! – I’m sorry. It’s my fault. My bad. Go! Yes, sir! Boss Dan is pissed. Look what you’ve done! Yeah, what have I done?
Didn’t he ask you to take two steps back? Wasn’t he saying I’m hot? That was before. Things have changed. That gesture means something else. I recommended you but you screwed up. You can only do walk-on parts for life! [BIG FISH] It’s cool outside. You’ll feel comfortable. Miss A-lister, give me a smile.
Fang Tianyi, what are you doing? Anqi. Whose baby is this? It’s not mine. She’s on a crew. An A-lister. A big shot. But that’s not important. I’m just glad you’re here. Hands off! We’re done. Stop sending me messages. What message? Anqi, why did you break up with me?
Why did you refuse to see me? Anqi, I remember I was blackout drunk yesterday. Are you sober now? I’ll tell you one more time. We’re over. I’ve warned you more than once to stop harassing me again. Have I made myself clear? Anqi, please give me some more time.
Give me one more chance, OK? Give you more time? You said you were gonna make a movie and asked me to wait for you. I did, didn’t I? Then you told me you’d open a movie studio with your friends and make a name for yourself. Did you succeed?
When your studio started to sink, you said you’d change it into an inn to finance your production. You’d realize your dream and become rich! Are you rich now? I’m close. I’ve waited for you for five years. You want more time but what about my time? That’s it. You should take this back. Anqi.
Anqi! Anqi! Yanzu. Hey, Qiang, what are you doing here? To be a corpse, of course. I didn’t see any wound on you. GSW to the head. You’re a corpse in demand. A pro! Qiang, let me ask you something. If we’re on set and I gesture to you like this, what do I mean?
Take two steps back. How did you know that? Easy-peasy. Here’s another one. On our first encounter, when you come and say hi, I make this gesture… You’re saying I’m hot. You also know that? What’s that? You’re too dumb to be an actor. Gotta run. Death awaits me. It’s said that Emperor Qianlong
Traveled to the south anonymously. I’m having so much fun! What’s that smell? It’s so nice! Your Majesty, look over there. Let’s go have a look. The owner was making steamed buns. Qianlong, who was used to extravagant feasts, got conquered by that simple yet pure smell instantly. Hand me a brush!
Qianlong spoke highly of the buns and crowned it “The Best Bun in the World”. – “The Best Bun in the World”? – Stop there. That story isn’t too bad, but it lacks certain feelings. Are you lecturing me? I… I mean I’m not sure what’s lacking. Ma’am, by “certain feelings”, do you mean love?
Yeah. Who doesn’t like a love line? Hey, I thought a screenwriter like you should know that. Add something like Butterfly Lovers, The Legend of White Snake, Legend of Dong Yong and the Seventh Fairy. So like Emperor Qianlong hits on a fairy? Hell yeah! Let’s talk about that character. He’s already an emperor
With a palace filled with women. Why… why push himself? Hey, young man, can you do it… or not? This story about the bun shop must touch hearts. It should make viewers cry. Yeah. That way, they can remember it. Are you up for the job or not? I am.
Where did you get this guy? Miss A-lister, can you stop crying? My back is literally killing me! Diaper is clean. You must be hungry. Thank God there’s milk powder in the bag. Let me make you some milk. Your food is coming. No water before paying the bills. There, there.
Do you want me to pray on my knees for water? Let me think, OK? There must be something I can do. It’s OK. There, there. Your food is here. Let me feed you. Come here. Here comes your food. It’s right here. Taste it. How did they get all that? Hu Yanzu. Hu Yanzu.
Mr. Wang. Go apologize to Boss Dan while he’s in a good mood. Don’t slow us down. Sure. Go, go, go! You’re hilarious! Boss Dan, I’m sorry that I failed to keep up with you. It’s my fault. Thank… thank you for forgiving me. I’ll do my best. Good job. You fit in quickly.
Really? I did it? Keep up the good work. I will! Cut! That’s a wrap for Boss Dan! Thank you, everyone! Thank you. Take a break. Thank you. Thanks for your hard work. Good. Well done! Congrats! Congratulations! That was amazing, Boss Dan! Thank you, Boss Dan. Yeah, yeah. Really? That’s too kind of you.
Guys, Boss Dan treats all of us to pizza and fried chicken! They’ve arrived. Yes! Great! Good! Thank you, Boss Dan. Thank you, Boss Dan. Thank you, Boss Dan. Yeah! Wow! That’s great! Thank you, Boss Dan. Emperor Qianlong smelled something nice at the inn and found that a fairy was making steamed buns.
My dear! Darling! Have a bite. You too. Eat more. Qianlong, who was used to the normal diet, got conquered by that unworldly bun instantly. When the two love birds was sharing a bun, suddenly, that fairy rose into the air. My dear! Darling! She flew back to heaven, leaving Qianlong in sorrow.
He crowned her buns “The Best Bun in the Heavens”. Hold on. I still think something is missing. Scooch over. Don’t get in the way. Healthy food is trending. Our buns are also healthy, right? Absolutely. Add something like our buns can build your body. Our buns can… can help you grow, too.
Body building aside, to say your buns can promote growth isn’t too convincing, isn’t it? What did we hire you for? You’re a screenwriter. We hired you to tell a story. It’s your job to make it sound real. Fantasy story really isn’t my thing. What… what thing? Anyway, just think it over.
Can you do it or not? Get out if you can’t. I… I… I… I can! Stop copying me. Do it quickly! Take your eyes off him. I’m still waiting. Hand me the brush. Qianlong crowned the buns “The Best Healthy Bun in the Heavens”. Since then, those buns became famous all over the state.
They were always in demand and remembered by history. Excellent! That’s what our brand is looking for. Are… are you happy now? Great! I’d like to get paid. No problem. Give… give me a hand. Young man, I have nothing else other than deep pockets. Bring him his payment. What currency is this? They’re buns.
Don’t get me wrong. What do you need money for? To buy food right? That’s what I’m offering you to make things easier. Just tell me if you need more. I’ll go get them. We have plenty. I’ve been here for hours revising the script as you required, and you paid me with buns?
Eat your buns! Thank you. You can have it, Boss Dan. You’ve had a long day. Pervert! You wanna be an actor? Dream on! [BIG FISH] Are you OK? How’s the baby? I’m not OK. Here you are. What are these? My paycheck. What happened to you? Got fired by the crew. Why?
I kissed the investor by accident. How was that an accident? You were horny. They all understand such things, but why can’t I? Is it wrong for me to be an actor? The worst part is you don’t like those shallow and gross things that you do understand. Why? Is it my taste?
There isn’t a reason for everything. You can only let nature take its course. Does she need a new diaper? I’ve changed it. She’s probably hungry. Hungry? Isn’t this milk powder? I just fed her. The can is empty. Buy another one. We have no money left after paying the bills.
Where did you get money in the first place? That’s not important. Feed her some water. She’s hungry, not thirsty. Well… There are buns. Wait. Are you out of your mind? She’s too little to eat solid food. What else could we do? We can’t let her starve to death.
Three grown men watch a baby crying for food but can’t afford it. We’re so useless and pathetic! Ms. Chen filmed here, right? Hey, are you gonna ask her for money? Are you crazy? You forgot how much she hates us? Help him jog his memory. Back then,
When she filmed Magic Chicken at our place, that chicken was strolling in the yard during break time. We thought it was a wild one and ate it, causing the whole crew to stop for a day. Ms. Chen bawled us out all day. What a dark yet tasty day! Since then,
She’s been pushing the envelope, and using our inn for free. But not this time. I’ll say this one last time! Prop Team, put everything back after we finish. Why is this saber here? Sorry, Ms. Chen. Ms. Chen. What’s up? So… we’re here for the rent. Are you asking me for money?
You should pay me first! Pay for what? [BIG FISH] Anqi! Get up. We’re cleaning up the room. You can’t! This is a murder crime scene of my love! Anqi! Those are props! Don’t open them! Pay me now! What’s the use of money? Could I buy my love back with it?
I’m a dead body without Anqi. Anqi! I’m sorry! That’s our animal actor. Put it down! Show some respect! It’s the Chicken Spirit. It’s going to heaven to speak for the struggling artists. I… You… Stop, stop, stop. That ketchup is also a prop. Put it down. I’m running out of ammo!
Give me chili sauce. It’s more expensive. In your dreams! – I… – No way! That pizza isn’t for eating. Then you started to run around, shouting, “Anqi! My Anqi!” You ruined the set and delayed our schedule. Yes, the props were sort of damaged, but you still need to pay the rent.
I’ll give you a discount. Fine. Let’s do the math. That inn of yours is worth 5,000 yuan, yeah? OK. – Agreed? – Yeah, sure. Take 40% off, that’ll be 3,000, yeah? – 1,000 off to pay for the props. – Not bad. 1,000 off for ruining the set. The delay will cost you 516.
So the rent will be 484, yeah? Come on, can’t you round it up? The production team is paid 120 per hour. Four hours of delay equal 480, correct? Hold on, you said it’s 516. Gotta pay the chicken, too. You… You’re ripping us off! Are you kidding me?
How long have you been running that inn? Let me ask you. Where did you get that stone lantern in your hall? And that bus and but stops in the yard? Didn’t we give you them for free? I disagree. We aren’t running that inn to get free stuff
But to make money for our movie. Fine. Whatever. You want money? Is that why you three adult men came to me to ask for a little over 400 yuan? I can give it to you. But are you that cheap? Look at them. Are they that needy? That’s peanuts.
Let’s go. The show is over. – Let’s go. – Let’s go. You wanna make a movie? You really think you’re some Hollywood star, director and screenwriter? Stop daydreaming! You wanna be an actor? Dream on! That’s it. You should take this back. Can you do it or not? Get out if you can’t.
Relationship went south. Got fired on set. That little A-lister almost broke my back. I sold love for water. Who am I? You know how hard we tried? You think I wanted to kiss him? He talked with his little finger. How could I get what he meant? They ripped off my costume and necklace
And told me to dream on. Damn them! My character went to the south three times today and I got a pile of buns in return. You think I want that job? I’m sick of my own script! But I need to survive. I need money. Yes, we shouldn’t have eaten your chicken,
But we bought you another one. So we’re taking your money! What was all that? Do you follow? You’re adorable! No wonder you’re an A-lister. You know what this means? Stop playing with her. Don’t be too optimistic. We have 362 yuan left after buying the milk powder. Save it as our rainy day fund
In case we have no water again. What are you doing? Did you sell a kidney or what? How did you pay the water bills? You don’t need to know. How’s the milk? Almost done. Stop rushing me. I’m warming it up. Thanks, guys. What’s your role today? A dead patient. Hold on. Who’s that?
The A-lister. Wait. Didn’t you say it’s a kid? Yeah, he’s a kid. Even a ten-year-old is a big shot. Hold on. Didn’t you say it’s a baby? What baby? That baby! Hey, where is she? What are you waiting for? Go get her back! Stop! Stop there! Don’t move! Stop!
– Give us the baby! Stop! – Stop! Give us the baby! Go! Let’s go! – Stop! – Stop! [Film Studio] Catch that thief! Catch that killer! Stop! Stop! Calm down. Don’t be nervous. We’re good people. I saw you hurting the baby. I… You were mistaken. I was… What are you doing?
I was doing this. So you meant she’s cute. Even you know that? That aside, who are you? I… My name is Ye Xiaoxi. Which crew are you on? I’m her mom. Who’s doing I’m Her Mom? [List of On-going Filming Crews] Is that a family drama? No, no, no. I’m really her mother.
So you left your baby girl here? You got any proof? I’ve been taking photos of her since she was born. You weren’t lying. Why did you put your baby here? I heard that the crew needed a baby, so I brought her here. They filmed her for a day and stopped.
Then the staff told me I could stay here for a few days. I thought they rent this whole place. And you thought you could stay here? I have no money left or anywhere else to go. Last night, someone outside was drunk. Anqi! Don’t leave me, Anqi! I’m a dead body without you, Anqi!
I was afraid my baby would get scared, so I stayed the night. We’re the owners of the inn. They didn’t pay the rent as they said. We were with the baby all day. Where were you? I… I passed out in the street. What happened? I went out without having breakfast.
Why didn’t you eat anything? I was out to pick up food. I lulled my baby to sleep [Traditional Shanghai Wontons] and went out for food. Unfortunately, I passed out before getting anything to eat. Then I was taken to hospital. [Emergency] Take her to ER. I woke up there
And remembered my baby was in your inn. Where am I? Why am I in a hospital? You fainted just now. An’an! Are you OK? I’m fine. I’m good. Thanks. What a fast runner! On my way back, I passed out again on an empty stomach. [Traditional Shanghai Wontons] Miss, Miss, can you hear me?
[Emergency] Her again? Take her to ER. Why am I here again? You fainted the second time. I’m fine. Thanks. [Traditional Shanghai Wontons] [Emergency] Three, two, one. OK. It’s about time. Morning. Morning. Thank you. I’m good. I know. Let’s go wait for her outside. That’s why it took me so long to get back.
You’re unbelievable! Wait, hold on. I’m lost. The second time she passed out… Hold on, hold on, hold on. That can wait. You couldn’t even take care of yourself, let alone your baby. Hey, pack up and go home. Do you have a heart? She can stay for one more night.
Who will pay for that? Hey, it’s late. Where are you going? Just stay and leave tomorrow. I can’t. I made a mistake yesterday. I can’t trouble you again. I’ll figure something out. No trouble at all. We got plenty of rooms. Listen, if you leave, you might run into drunkards again, right? Alright.
You can leave tomorrow. That’s the right thing to do. Let me. I can do it myself. Give me the stroller. Thanks. I didn’t follow. How did you pass out? I didn’t have breakfast. Why didn’t you? I had no food and went out to buy it. [Easter Egg] I’m so mad! Who pissed you?
Some bun shop asked me to play Emperor Qianlong in their commercial. They told me that bun is good for health and can promote growth. That’s a lie! There isn’t such a thing! I turned them down right away. I mean, what kind of unethical shameless scumbag would come up with such trash?
They’re doing it for real? How did you know that? I’ll draft a letter of apology. A what? A report of false advertising. Write down everything. That screenwriter should go to hell!
