April 9, 2001

YUEN is a big fan of horses. He is going to buy some paint for his father WAH and even on his way, he tries watching the horse races. As he hurries back, he runs into a girl named YEE and drops his pot of paint, which in turn makes WAH unable to recover the balance due. While WAH is discussing with YUEN how to explain to his wife LAN their failure to recover the balance due, LAN discovers that WAH has been gambling on the horses. The couple soon get into a severe quarrel. YUEN and his friend DONG together with TUNG are invited to Milano Restaurant, where DONG’s brother NAM is working as a chef, to comment on a trial menu. TUNG grumbles about her supervisor MING all through the dinner and YUEN just suggests writing a story of his favourite horse ‘Little Elephant’. YUEN and TUNG even sneak into the stable to steal a look. YUEN sees a stable worker beat Little Elephant and he soon flies into a fury……

YEE works in a comic company, though she is not willing to. She stays there all for her sister TUNG’s sake. YUEN has applied to be a stable worker. WAH knows for sure that LAN is going to object to it and thus persuades YUEN to give up. With the help of DONG, TUNG has successfully transferred to the Horse Racing Section. MING points out that she could not have done this without DONG, which irks TUNG. TUNG’s youngest sister YAN slips away from home to chill out but gets hurt at the end. As commanded by TUNG, YAN cannot go out until she has finished the HKCEE examination. YUEN meets YEE again after the interview. He calls her ‘Miss Ill-luck’ while she addresses him as ‘Mr. Stupid’. TUNG gets a bit down when she knows that the Horse Racing Section is just a team of old men. She feels even more disappointed as she finds that MING is quite closed to her present supervisor CHIU……

April 11, 2001

YUEN comes to know that YEE is TUNG’s sister. They start to quarrel as soon as they meet. DONG reveals that he may get promoted but TUNG is not at all optimistic about that since he is not a degree holder. DONG is soon full of disappointment. YUEN and CANDY have been assigned to the same stable for practical training. Both of them are late on their first working day and are blamed by SAM, the number-two supervisor of the stable. YUEN comes to know that the guy who beat Little Elephant is actually SAM’s nephew and he therefore can foresee he himself is going to suffer under SAM’s supervision. All of YEE’s colleagues say their boss WAI is fond of YEE. CHIU asks TUNG to take some photos of horse training and TUNG has to turn to YUEN for help. TUNG’s efforts are very much appreciated by the editor TONG while YUEN is blamed by SAM. Luckily, CHI the horse trainer is there trying to defend YUEN……

1x4 - Episode 4

April 12, 2001

SAM says YUEN has tried to feed a sweet to Little Elephant and he reckons it is totally wrong and unacceptable. For this matter, he is going to fire YUEN. YUEN learns from SUP that JANG was an eminent horse trainer but is notorious for having poisoned horses. Little Elephant has recovered its appetite. YUEN is so surprised by this but he soon finds out the reason – sweets dropped into the horse feed have lured it back to food. CHIU suggests to TONG that TUNG may substitute for SHING who is on sick leave to write a special feature. TUNG again asks for YUEN’s help. Horse trainer CHU asks YUEN to saddle up Little Elephant but it has gone crazy as soon as it sees the saddle. YUEN tries to calm it down and is hurt. JANG reveals to YUEN that the stable worker who used to oversee Little Elephant is a Shanghainese. The very next day, YUEN begins to talk to the horse in Shanghainese and it shows response……

YAN tries to ride on a horse and has caused an accident. Luckily she is saved in time by a jockey called CHEUNG. YAN is so impressed by the man. YUEN shows Little Elephant all its brilliant achievement, hoping to stimulate its spirit. He fails nevertheless. TUNG points out that TONY, with his strong academic background, is a great rival of DONG’s. DONG takes offence at that and the couple start to quarrel. TUNG goes off in a huff and YUEN, as a friend of theirs, tries to patch their relationship up……

April 16, 2001

Little Elephant has won but CHEUNG, its rider, is accused of having breached the rules. YUEN is so worried about the result. TUNG has once again provided perfectly correct tips for the readers, which is highly appreciated by TONG. TONG decides to leave her to take charge of a new column. It is not DONG but TONY who is promoted. TUNG feels upset while DONG has to hide his disappointment. YUEN has become more and more arrogant since Little Elephant’s victory in the race. Both SUP and JANG cannot put up with him. JANG reminds him there is no short cut to success and suggests he should read more to enrich his knowledge. YUEN takes TUNG’s advice and goes to buy a computer for himself so that he can read more and in turn learn more from the web. On the way he meets YEE and WAI. He points out to YEE that lots of evidence indicates that WAI is wooing her. YEE wonders. YAN encounters CHEUNG, who gets to kiss her……

YUEN, with the help of CHUN, makes an apology to YEE. YEE’s attitude towards him has then slightly softened. YAN is thinking about being a jockey trainee. WAI looks for thousands of excuses to date YEE. YEE feels annoyed but knows not how to turn him down. Meanwhile YUEN comes along and helps her out by claiming that he is in love with YEE. YUEN is busy looking up words in the dictionary, which is quite time-consuming. YEE knows that and so seeks excuses to give him an instant dictionary. YUEN feels very grateful for her thoughtfulness.

TUNG shows strong opposition to YAN’s plan to learn riding. YEE helps YAN to convince TUNG. JANG needs YUEN to read books on horses of Mongolian species and human acupuncture points. YUEN has no clue about his intention. YUEN overhears YEE praising him and feels so happy. They are getting along with each other extremely well. YUEN asks JANG about the rumours saying he has poisoned horses. JANG admits that is true and immediately drives him off. SAU just cannot understand why he told such a lie. DONG has failed the TOEFL test and again quibbles with TUNG over TONY’s promotion. TUNG recalls how she started with DONG. She in fact was at first attracted to YUEN. YUEN reveals he may be promoted to the post of Rider. SUP, on the other hand, just reminds him to keep his feet on the ground.

YUEN teaches DONG horse riding but it is obviously of no interest to DONG. YAN heads for the Jockey Training School where she meets ON, a classmate of hers. YAN finds the school rules so strict. Mobile phones are not even allowed at school. She is therefore afraid that CHEUNG cannot get hold of her. The coach SING is nicknamed ‘Devil’ and all trainees are too scared to get near him. ON thinks YAN is very cute and funny, and is deeply attracted to her. He does not mind helping her out. SING finds YAN is quite talented. YUEN waits for YEE in the library and YEE is thrilled to bits. YEE has promised to go horse riding with YUEN and is therefore busy choosing an outfit for her first date. CHEUNG sneaks into the training school to meet YAN. SING discovers that someone has slipped out of the school without permission and is asking for witnesses.

DONG is reconciled with TUNG but still cannot find a job. He plans to take over Milano Restaurant. YEE is very much looking forward to her first date with YUEN but YUEN cannot make it because he needs to join CHI for horse training. YEE is unhappy and does not speak to him. YUEN, however, supposes she is perhaps not interested in him, and thus gets so down.

DONG persuades WAH to invest in Milano but horse races have already preoccupied WAH, who therefore shows no response at all. DONG leaves disappointingly. Along his way he passes by an off-course betting branch and decides to try his luck with the tips off YUEN. He at last has won HK,000. DONG successfully takes over Milano, which makes TUNG incredibly happy. TUNG suggests providing readers with VCDs as gifts. Her idea is strongly opposed by CHIU but highly appreciated by TONG.

TUNG discovers CHIU has been copying her work for his part-time job. She of course cannot wait to complain to a senior staff member HO. CHIU is fired at once. HO is quite interested in TUNG’s website project and urges her to start working on it. This astonishes TONG. CHUN has suddenly disappeared and that in fact has something to do with WAI’s comics which are full of violence. YEE suggests WAI should figure out a new mission for his comic company. WAI agrees.

TUNG is determined to break up with DONG, who, on the other hand, asks for marriage. However, nothing is going to change TUNG’s mind. She returns DONG all the money that she owes him and DONG is thrown into despair. TUNG’s tips on horse racing are deemed absolutely reliable, which makes her more and more popular.
