When Hock sees a cheesy local version of “Saturday Night Fever,” he gets the disco bug, taking his pal Mei to nightly lessons in hopes of winning a contest and buying the bike. He’s blind to Mei’s falling in love with him, and, at the last minute asks another woman to be his partner in the contest. Meanwhile, Beng reveals a personal secret to his family and a crisis ensues. Hock, Beng, Mei and her rival: it’s Night Fever.
