About
Gam Wah appears to be a cop who can easily betray his own dignity and accept bribes. While investigating a human trafficking case, he meets Leung Sam, a woman who has taken a vow of celibacy. Leung Sam and her friend, Fa Ying Yuet, had been kidnapped when they were young, thus, they hate human traffickers. They equally hate corrupt public servants, with the exception of Gam Wah's colleague, Sum Yat Yin, whose upright and honest character catches Leung Sam's eye and she even falls in love with him. Gam Wah and Sum Yat Yin are initially polar opposites, but after Gam Wah's acceptance of a bribe causes the death of a witness, it starts to touch his conscience. However, at the time, the police and the underworld each had their own unbreakable, unwritten laws. Sum Yat Yin is demoted amidst the power struggle of businessman and detective. It puts his relationship with Leung Sam to the test. Seeing all of this, Gam Wah's heart aches, but all he can do is stay silently by Leung Sam's side and secretly hope that he can make up for his past mistakes.

Season 1
Episode 1
Sworn spinster LEUNG SUM runs into TAI-KOON from a wealthy family while going grocery shopping, so she warns AUNTIE CHAI, who looks after TAI-KOON, to be wary of the recent surge in kidnappings. Unexpectedly, TAI-KOON is still abducted. After SHUM YAT-YIN, a brave and honest detective, arrests a thief on the street, he comes across his co-worker KAM WAH, who out of the blue starts defending the thief. KAM WAH sees someone holding a kid, and his furtive behaviour smells fishy to KAM WAH, who immediately runs after them. As their newly appointed supervisor from Britain pays much attention to the child abduction case, Detective Inspector LUI KWOK demands all the detectives to cancel their vacation and probe into the matter. Having taken bribes, KAM WAH distributes the money to the others, but YAT-YIN refuses to accept the money……
Episode 2
When KAM WAH goes to TAI-KOON's residence to collect the rest of the bounty after he successfully saves the child, he is spotted by AUNTIE CHAI, who immediately tells LEUNG SUM about it. Fishmonger MASTER PO comes to visit YING-YUET, so KAM WAH pretends to plan a banquet treat for YING-YUET, managing to deceive MASTER PO into treating YING-YUET to a banquet the next day. CHONG NGO-SHAN is the boss of the Shui Fung Nin Rice Store; whereas his concubine HO WAN-FONG is his right-hand woman. Suspecting that someone stole the rice, WAN-FONG comes up with an idea and easily makes the criminal give himself away. By coincidence, MAN-TO also plans a banquet treat for CHOI-TIP, so YUK-KIU tells YING-YUET to alter her schedule. That greatly exasperates MASTER PO, who even challenges MAN-TO to a competition to burn banknotes during the banquet……
Episode 3
YAT-YIN is reassigned to an idle position, and he comes across LEUNG SUM while looking for a lost dog named ROSE. LEUNG SUM mentions her background, so YAT-YIN suggests that she could post a notice in a newspaper to look for her family. LEUNG SUM's mentor, MEI-LAN, used to look after a girl called SOPHIE, who got married in Britain and recently follows her husband CHARLTON to return to Hong Kong because of her husband's job relocation. SOPHIE also pays LEUNG SUM $5 a day to cook for them. After leaving the newspaper office, LEUNG SUM and YAT-YIN bump into a mentally ill woman, MADAM LEUNG, during which YAT-YIN even helps her locate the whereabouts of her husband SZETO CHI-LEUNG. Therefore, they get to know the boss of a trading company, NG SAI-CHEONG. KAM WAH owes $500 in gambling debt, so he comes up with an idea……
Episode 4
With all the prostitutes of Foon Tak gathering in the lobby, YUK-KIU and CHOI-TIP respectively pressure YING-YUET to tell KAM WAH to return the money to them. SHEK KAU reads the family tracing notice posted by LEUNG SUM, so all of them start guessing which part on her body her birthmark occurs. YING-YUET happens to look for KAM WAH, who turns out to have sneaked into LEUNG SUM's home and peeked at her birthmark. Suddenly, YING-YUET and LEUNG SUM have a quarrel, during which YING-YUET blames LEUNG SUM again for having caused them to be kidnapped years ago. Having gone into debt by gambling at a casino, KAM WAH is under SAI-CHEONG's threats to work for him. All the prostitutes from the four big brothels assemble outside of the residence of the Commissioner on Banning of Prostitution, requesting to meet up with him, but SOPHIE refuses to let them in……
Episode 5
YAT-YIN manages to rescue CHI-LEUNG from SAI-CHEONG's henchmen all by himself and flees. Midway through, he runs into MADAM LEUNG and LEUNG SUM, so YAT-YIN guides them to take shelter in a safe place for the time being. Upon his return to the police station, YAT-YIN directly reports to his supervisor, a westerner, with regard to the situation of CHI-LEUNG and human trafficking, above which he even successfully convinces his supervisor to go to the safe house in person. However, when they arrive there, they find the house empty. With the prostitutes from the big four brothels once again gathering outside of the commissioner's residence, SOPHIE is unable to resist enormous pressure from the masses anymore, so she expresses that the commissioner, CHARLTON, agrees to give them a five-year buffer period. Through his investigation, YAT-YIN surprisingly uncovers that NGO-SHAN asked SAI-CHEONG to help look for his long lost biological son……
Episode 6
YING-YUET reveals her plan to YUK-KIU, which is to hold an event called "The last night" before the ban on prostitution takes effect so as to reap large profits from their clients, and in the meantime, some of them might even find opportunities to marry themselves off. During that night, though all of them are anxiously anticipating, to their surprise, only a handful of clients patronize there. Following their departure from the brothel, CHOI-TIP plans to rent a cheaper room together with CHEUNG-MEI and CHUN-CHU at the Ping On Inn; whereas YING-YUET claims that she has rented a room in a hotel. Out of the blue, MADAM LEUNG, who is temporarily staying in LEUNG SUM's place, attempts to commit suicide, so the others hope that she will be admitted in a mental hospital as soon as possible……
Episode 7
Apart from being demoted to uniform police officer, YAT-YIN is also dispatched to patrol the cemetery area on night shifts. LEUNG SUM goes to the Ping On Inn to visit YING-YUET, who instead warns LEUNG SUM to keep her nose out of her business. When YING-YUET goes to meet up with YUK-KIU, YUK-KIU introduces her to be an escort girl. After an Indian security guard is killed by a criminal during a bank heist murder case, YAT-YIN successfully solves the case, however, YIU-WAI implies that YAT-YIN is doomed to be a uniform police officer for the rest of his life. Summoning KAM WAH, SAI-CHEONG commands him to rescue the bank robber. Boss KEUNG arrives at the warehouse of the Shui Fung Nin Rice Store for purchasing negotiations, during which MAN-TO mistakes low quality rice for the high quality one and tries to sell him the low quality rice. After the incident, NGO-SHAN lays the responsibility of educating MAN-TO on WAN-FONG's shoulders……
Episode 8
After KAM WAH informs LEUNG SUM that YING-YUET is detained, LEUNG SUM manages to borrow $30 to bail her out. LEUNG SUM then takes YING-YUET back to her home, but the others refuse to accept YING-YUET, leaving LEUNG SUM no other choice but to leave her place together with YING-YUET. NGO-SHAN invites YAT-YIN back home to discuss his family affairs, and their conversation is eavesdropped on by MAN-TO. In order to help YING-YUET to start anew, LEUNG SUM volunteers to take a 50 per cent cut in her salary, hoping that SOPHIE will hire both of them at the same time. LEUNG SUM is informed that her biological father shows up, however KAM WAH discovers that the so-called father is in fact a swindler. With the bank robber, BIG GUY YING, being transferred to court for trial, SAI-CHEONG has someone free him in transit and arranges a getaway ship to send him away……
