Description:
Joy (Tina Lau), studying in San Francisco, wants to follow her boyfriend Louie (Charlie Chin) to New York, but Louie does not love her. Their discussion leads nowhere, Joy threatens suicide and binds Louie to her, yet this also gives Louie more chances to spend time with Joy's roommate Lvy (Brigitte Lin). Though Louie's love for Lvy remains unspoken, the suspicious Joy has already guessed most of it and secretly regards Lvy as an enemy.
As Louie wonders what to do about Joy, Lvy calls Joy's brother Fu Zhu-Zhong (Chang Kuo-Chu) from faraway Hong Kong, but Zhu-Zhong, once in America, shows none of the concern a brother should have for Joy, only blaming Louie for spending too little time with her, and when Louie suggests taking Joy to a doctor, his attitude is very strange. Show more But even when Louie tells Lvy that Joy suffers from hereditary mental illness, Lvy pays it no mind—she has already fallen deeply in love with Zhu-Zhong, which makes Joy reject her even more.
Soon Joy kills herself by driving her car to death, and Zhu-Zhong senses her passing. Afterwards, Zhu-Zhong proposes returning to Hong Kong to handle some affairs and comes back shortly after; Lvy does not understand but does not stop him. While sorting through Joy's belongings, Lvy discovers that Zhu-Zhong is married; like Joy, Zhu-Zhong is also mentally ill, and Joy's death triggers a relapse. In Hong Kong, he quarrels with his wife (Deannie Yip) over a passport issue and brutally murders her. Lvy learns from the newspaper that Zhu-Zhong killed his wife; though uneasy, she suspects it is false news. Just then, Zhu-Zhong suddenly appears before her.
