Summary
	Recently returned to HK, Lloyd displays an amazing talent to select winning mahjong hands. His cousin Flying Dragon persuades him to enter the Ultimate Mahjong Player competition. Three years ago, Yuen Wah (played, curiously enough, by Yuen Wah) became the champion, and would prefer to enter the competition and risk losing than remain unchallenged and bored.
