While Hao goes about appreciating the beauty of the city, Zhang goes about appreciating the beauty of the ladies of the city. In a chance meeting, Zhang comes across a beautiful girl, who happens to wear the same red band as him.
Zhang musters much courage and tries to befriend her. But, language becomes a barrier as he cannot speak or understand English. Soon a misunderstanding ensues between them and she storms off.

Much is left to be then discovered. Will Zhang be able to talk to the girl again? Will he ever know her name? And, will he finally be able to convey to her, the deeper meaning the red band holds?
