Inside Ky Duyen’s Office Ky Duyen zoom the camera toward the computer and Bao Han’s smiling face. Snap, snap the camera clicks. Ky Duyen puts down the camera, “Who says being a photographer was a waste Trinh Hoi?”
[Police Station, Tu Quyen’s Office]
After turning on her computer, Tu Quyen immediately went to her history pages to see what Minh Tuyet printed out. Tu Quyen looks closely at all the things she searched for and printed out. “Bang Tam…? I didn’t search for her. Why would Minh Tuyet need information on Bang Tam?” Tu Quyen press on Bang Tam’s name and a page of Bang Tam’s information pop up. “She has never been in jail or even got involve with the police. She seems too good to be true, but why did Minh Tuyet search for her? Bang Kieu…?” Tu Quyen picks up her cell phone.
[Coffee Shop]
“How…?” Minh Tuyet slams the files onto the table aggressively.
“What am I to do?” Kieu Linh rolls his eyes.
Minh Tuyet points at his face, “You’re supposed to be a lawyer, my lawyer and…”
“And what…? You want me to threaten her to sign the paper?”
“Exactly…!” Minh Tuyet screams.
Kieu Linh picks up his suite case and accidentally one of his business card fell out of his suitcase, “You’re crazy! Get another lawyer.”
“If you walk out of that room don’t expect to receive any money!” Minh Tuyet screams.
Kieu Linh shakes his head and storm out of the coffee shop bumping into Bang Kieu, “Crazy woman!”
Bang Kieu walks into the coffee shop confused, “What happened…?”
“My law… I mean that customer was unbelievable, he…” Bang Kieu interrupts, “You don’t need to explain. I believe you!”
“Here let me take those bags to the back.” Minh Tuyet takes the bags from Bang Kieu and heads toward the back.
Bang Kieu smile sweetly at Minh Tuyet and sit down on the chair, “What’s this?” Bang Kieu picks up Kieu Linh’s Business card from under his butt. “Wasn’t this the guy…? Lawyer…?”
Suddenly his cell phone rings.
“Hello?” Bang Kieu answer.
“Bang Kieu…? This is Tu Quyen.”
“Can’t reach Minh Tuyet...? She’s…”
“No! I need to talk to you.”
“That’s odd since we’ve met you have never call me.”
“I’m scare of Minh Tuyet being jealous.”
“So what do you need to talk to me about?”
“Can you tell me why would Minh Tuyet need information about Bang Tam for?”
“Bang Tam…? Why would she need information for?”
“That’s why I’m calling to ask you. If you don’t know I’ll find someone else. Bye.”
“Wait!”
“What it is?”
“Today I saw her talking to a lawyer.”
“Lawyer…?”
“I don’t know what they were talking about, but she seems pretty angry.”
“Only if we can get in touch with him…”
“I have his business card.”
“You are awesome!”
“The phone number is (682) 472-5936.”
“Thanks I’ll inform you on more information when I find out.”
Bang Kieu hang up the phone and looks at the card, “Bang Tam…? Lawyer…? Information…? Why…?”
“What are you looking at?” Minh Tuyet walks back into the room.
“Nothing…!” Bang Kieu stuff the card into the pocket.
[Police Station, Tu Quyen’s Office]
“Lawyer…? What does she want with a lawyer?” Tu Quyen presses the number. The phone rings once, twice, for a third time and finally a man picks up.
“Hello?” Kieu Linh answer.
“Is this a lawyer?”
“Yes. I’m Kieu Linh! What do you need?”
“I need a lawyer. That’s the reason I called you.”
“Do you want to sue or a lawyer to defend?”
“As of the moment I have lots of questions. Can we meet…?”
“I’m driving back to my office. You can always come in.”
“I’m coming, but I don’t quite know the way. Can you come pick me up at the Wisteria Police station?”
“Sure!”
[Outside Police Station]
Tu Quyen stand on the side walk waiting impatiently, “What’s taking him so long?”
At the corner of the street an SUV turns into the corner and it drives toward Tu Quyen. The mirror rolls down and in the car sit a guy with bushy facial hair, “Are you?”
“What do you want?” Tu Quyen reaches into her pocket ready to show him her badge.
“I’m Kieu Linh. The lawyer...!”
“What…?” Tu Quyen is shock.
“Who did you think I was?” Kieu Linh takes off his shade.
Tu Quyen gets into the car. “I didn’t know lawyer now a day’s look like robbers.” Tu Quyen whispers under her voice.
“Now what do you need me for?”
“I want you to ask you some question.”
“Go ahead!”
“I need you to tell me why one of your customer, Minh Tuyet, hired you for.”
The car stop; both Kieu Linh and Tu Quyen swing forward, “I don’t think that’s necessary.”
“It is necessary now?” Tu Quyen holds out her police badge.
“You’re scaring me with your driver license?” Kieu Linh unlocks the car.
“What?” Tu Quyen looks at her badge, “Oops wrong one!” Tu Quyen pulls out her other wallet with her police badge on it.
Kieu Linh raises his hand up, ‘I want no trouble!”
“Then tell me why Minh Tuyet hired you.”
“She wanted me to bring some document for some girl at the hospital to sign.”
“Bang Tam…?”
“Yes! But the girl refused to sign so Minh Tuyet fire me.”
“What papers?”
“Those in my suitcase...” Kieu Linh points at his suitcase.
Tu Quyen pulls it up and takes out the documents, “These?”
“Yes!”
Tu Quyen takes the document, throws the suitcase at Kieu Linh and ran out the door. Tu Quyen continues running away from the car. After a few minute Tu Quyen turns around and notices the car driving away.
“What kind of documents are these?” Tu Quyen observes. “This is ridicules. How could Minh Tuyet do this…?” Tu Quyen looks around at the deserted highway and cries, “Now how am I suppose to go home?”
[Gucci Company, Tran Thai Hoa’s Office]
“I want you to be walk as the top model next week at the Gucci yearly fashion show.” Tran Thai Hoa announces.
Nhu Loan’s jaw drops, “Are you serious…?”
“I’m the boss. I don’t tell lies.” Tran Thai Hoa winks.
“Oh my god…!” Nhu Loan jumps up and down and hugs Tran Thai Hoa. Once again Tran Thai Hoa face turns bright red.
Nhu Loan shyly let go of Tran Thai Hoa, “I’m sorry again!”
“You have a tendency to choke people when you’re happy.”
Nhu Loan chuckles, “Thank you…!” Nhu Loan excuses herself and walk out of the office still smiling. Nhu Loan walks toward the back of the building to her room. When she walks near the staircases a pair of hand reaches out and pulls her in.
“OMG Kidnapper…!” Nhu Loan slaps and kicks.
Vina Uyen Mi smacks Nhu Loan on the forehead, “Idiot…! If I wanted to kidnap you, I would not do it in the company.”
“Why did you have to sneak up on me like that?” Nhu Loan fixes her hair.
“I need to talk to you secretly.” Vina Uyen Mi smile devilishly.
Nhu Loan steps back, “What do you want?”
Vina Uyen Mi pulls Nhu Loan toward her, “I heard you got a promotion.”
“What promotion?” Nhu Loan is confused.
“Don’t lie to me. I heard you’ll be the top number one model next week at the fashion show.”
“Well if you say that’s a promotion then yes.”
Vina Uyen Mi takes out her cell phone, “Perfect!”
“What are you doing with your cell phone?”
Vina Uyen Mi gives Nhu Loan the phone, “Take a look at these photos.”
Nhu Loan takes the cell phone and sees the photos of her hugging Tran Thai Hoa, “So…? What’s wrong with these photos?”
“You’re hugging the boss…”
“And…? Is that a problem? He was giving me a congratulating hugs.” Nhu Loan gives Vina Uyen Mi back her cell phone.
“Do you think anyone would believe you? Especially right after you got the promotion for basically doing nothing. ”
“I did do that photo shoot.”
“One photo shoots. No one will believe you.”
Nhu Loan eyes turn red, “Why are you doing this?”
Vina Uyen Mi smile, “Honey, you should know this is a dog eat dog industry and it’s all about the money.”
“You want to blackmail me?”
“If that’s what you call it then yes.” Vina Uyen Mi shrugs.
Nhu Loan heads toward the door, “I’m not giving you any money!”
Vina Uyen Mi grabs Nhu Loan arms.
