Coffee Cat Mama (Mao Si Ma Ma / 貓屎媽媽)

What's your explanation?

I was so worried about you.

I called your teacher to ask if you failed to hand in your homework often.

But I was told you never missed one. It's all well-done.

I was hopping mad.

My teacher praised me? Shouldn't you be happy about it?

Talking back?

You not only lied, but was stealing!

I've asked Uncle Longlegs.

You nicked the ticket from his shirt pocket.

It's mine. It's not stealing.

Still won't admit your mistake?

You knew you had asthma, and you went to a comedy?

You're laughing out loud, having popcorn and a soft drink?

Want an asthma attack?

Shut up! You can't wait to die?

Hey, let go of him!

Miss, this is not your shop, I don't have to listen to you!

I'll call the police to report on child abuse!

Fine, go ahead. Do it now!

Did you hear that? She wants me arrested.

I'll be thrown into jail.

Go live with her!

Pa...pa, don't go away. Pa...

As a domestic science teacher, I know something about cakes.

So Sick, tell your sister,

her cakes aren't alright.

Are you sick?

Can't keep your mouth shut? Mental!

Let me tell you, commercial products are made with cheap ingredient.

They can't compare to homemade ones...

Tell her yourself then. You know her.

Are you her brother or not?

You don't care about her business?

Are you her boyfriend?

How does her business concern you?

I've told you. I have a very good... Girlfriend!

Let me in...lecher...let me in.

You said she's back to the office.

How come she's here?

Let me in...

How would I know? Ask her yourself.

Don't let her in yet...

Let me in, lecher...

I don't dance to your tune.

Coming...

I was tidying up...

Why did you lock the door?

Hiding a woman here?

You said you're going back to the office.

The boss stood me up.

Stood you UP?

Really hiding a woman here?

Don't you stain my place!

Mom has made some soup.

She insisted I take it over for you.

For me? She has forgiven me?

Ask her yourself.

Why do you guys insist on asking me about others?

Why so short-fused?

It can affect your performance. The girls might not like it!

How wicked! You're cursing me?

I am nice, so you're still alive.

Cut it out or I'll raise your rent!

Raise my rent?

Tell that man to come out!

Who?

Mom's pork lung soup is salty and fishy.

Only one man can make delicious pork lung soup.

Yam...Ka...Ching!

Take this away.

It's made anyway...

Yam Sir, you don't get what it means by "severing ties" with someone?

Unless the soup is poisoned, or I won't take it.

But it's so long ago...

How long? Just two years ago.

My mom has just refused to see me for Z years.

Mad with me for merely Z years.

Unless she forgives me, I won't forgive you.

You objected to Mr and Mrs Bean's being together back then.

You are not welcome by them now.

So...Sick.

You are not welcome here.

Please... Please...

Don't be nosy. I'm not being nosy.

You've had a nap in the oar after dinner. and enough rest.

One more hour of math exercises before you go to bed.

But I've worked on those all day.

Yet you're still making mistakes.

If you make the same mistake next week, you'll see.

OK.

The DSE is coming. I'll set you a timetable.

Practise accordingly.

And work on past papers.

Mom, please, give me a break.

Be smart.

Yes! Done!

It's our opening tomorrow. I am so excited.

The moment has finally come!

Yeah!

Let's go home early and go to bed early for the big day tomorrow.

Let's go.

I forgot to water the coffee tree.

I forgot I'd done it.

Good!

Let's go. Yes.

I haven't turned off all the coffeemakers!

Mental. I've actually done it.

Yes! You've had a long day.

It'll be busier tomorrow. Just take it easy.

Why don't you go back yourself?

I can't sleep even if I get home.

OK. Take care. Don't catch a cold.

I won't. Just go.

OK, bye. Be careful.

Sis.

Sherman.

Mommy, how come you are here?

We just had dinner and happened to pass by.

Going home? Get in.

Just you? Where's So Mei?

It's our opening tomorrow.

She's so excited she won't go home.

Mommy, it's our opening tomorrow. You really aren't coming?

I have many meetings tomorrow. I can't make it.

Please sign for it.

Go for it!

Percy, what is it?

Marcia, I am sorry.

I've lost Mr Lam's e-mail.

Could you send it to me again?

How careless. Later then.

Sister, are you alright?

I'm fine...

Get up...

Are you alright? I'm fine.

Where are you going? Let me give you a ride.

Now you are talking.

I am going to a grand opening. Here's the address.

Mr & Mrs Bean...I don't think I can do it. I'm sorry.

Pick up the fruit and get in. I am in a hurry.

Hey, here! There they are...

Why look so down? What is it?

Opening means closing?

Norman and the 5 waitresses have not shown up.

So Mei has been trying to call them. But no one's answered.

Sorry, we are not open yet.

I am here to help you with it.

Which one of you is So Mei?

That's me.

Tri-fork sent me to host your opening offering. See?

See...

That means my mom isn't coming?

She sent me. That means she isn't coming.

Let me prepare the offering for you.

Thanks...

Your mom is nice. At least she has sent her present.

Your mom is not mad at you. She's mad at me.

Stop mumbling here.

Ask if the lady can connect with the spirits

See if she can find out where Norman and the waitresses are.

Shut up!

Oh, it's from May.

I quit.

What? These Post-Qfls don't write resignation letters anymore?

Just an SMS?

What to do? The other waitresses are Post-90s too.

Will they do the same?

It's Norman!

Norman, where are you? We're waiting for you for the opening.

Opening? Can you do that?

It's said the 4 waitresses have quit.

How did you know?

We mean to quit together.

Quit together?

Yes, the cafe next door is paying us 30% more.

I see no reason why we shouldn't go over.

But we've been friends for over 10 years.

Precisely.

As a friend, you sure wish me a better future.

It's fishing in troubled waters.

Come on. Now if you will pay me 20% more,

I'll be there right away.

Just for your sake.

Right, you are sick!

Sis, well done!

You did the right thing.

Such people will bite the hand that feeds them.

Oh, yeah! No waiters? Good.

Good? Know what we're talking about?

So Mei, take it easy.

Maybe we can postpone the opening?

But customers are queuing up.

We can't afford to lose them.

The gimmick of having an in-house coffee roaster is out.

But Norman has roasted some beans as reserve.

It can last us several days.

Waiter...

But I am a guest.

You are all enlisted.
