Realising that he will be defeated in no time during a police showdown, a thug shoots himself to force the cops to cease fire and take him to the hospital. In the hospital, he claims human rights to refuse immediate treatment in order to buy time for his underlings to rescue him. The detective in charge sees through his scheme but decides to play along so as to capture his whole gang once and for all.

Fun drinking game: Take a shot for every time Lam Suet is credited as Fat/Fatty/Fatso/Big etc in a Johnnie To joint I guarantee you’ll need your stomach pumped by the end of it

Least favourite To so far but you still get Louis Koo and Lam Suet doing their thing so it goes in the win column regardless.
