- Jack: I'm thinking... why would a person disappear? Do you think the missing person really doesn't wish to be found? If nobody is searching, you are already lost, you would be forgotten by everyone in the blink of an eye, your position would be replaced. In which case, what's the point of disappearing? This shows you aren't even fit to disappear.
- Restaurant Proprietress (Wang, Xuan): What's yours will be yours. What's not yours... will not be yours.
- Xiao Mo: But sometimes you get rewarded, sometimes you get sick.
- Restaurant Proprietress (Wang, Xuan): Whether or not you get what you want, it's not your fault.
- Xiao Mo: So how then can I forget about it?
- Restaurant Proprietress (Wang, Xuan): You can't, it's like a scar.
- Xiao Mo: Do you think it would ever snow in Taipei ? When I was little, I often asked when my mum would come home. My granny would say, "When the snow falls"... because Taipei never snows. And my mum will never come home.
- Wen Wen: Xiao Mo... he had left.
- May: Left? Where did he go?
- Wen Wen: To search for his mom. He said Jack was right. If someone had disappeared but no one is looking, then what's the point of disappearing?
- May: But it has already been so many years, where is he going to find her?
- Wen Wen: Being unable to find someone isn't the same as not looking.
