Ho Yi also asks Hok Yau to be a model, Hok Yau happily thinks that his former girlfriend would shoot a series of pretty photos for him, but when he arrives he discovers that he has to wear prison uniform as the background.

Hok yau points out that his character is a gutless and lazy "mama's boy", after living a few decades he has nothing to show for it. Thus he understands that even if Cheung Ho Yi loves him she would not live with him, she would only be a good friend. This character is his first with so little going in his life. He jokes that this character is truly too lazy, if he is Cheung Ho Yi he too would bail. Yet Cheung Ho Yi says that being with a kind hearted "Mama's boy" is very pleasant and comforting, as they would not have any stress of outwitting each other. She feels no matter the personality, everyone in the end can find a suitable other half to make up for their own shortcoming.
