Meanwhile, in Hong Kong, [[Theresa Lee]] is about to marry, but falls for her fiancéefiancé's twin brother (the two are played by twins [[James Chan (actor)|James Chan]] and [[Sean Chan]]). And finally, in [[Macau]], [[Michelle Reis]] is stuck between [[Alex Fong (actor)|Alex Fong]] and [[David Wu (Hong Kong actor)|David Wu]], though not in the same way the other two women are.
