Fatty Choy lives in the SRO in Chinatown. He’s normally a huge gossip and a jokester, but he cries for hours after he discovers Old Fong’s dead body in Old Fong’s apartment in the SRO.

He plays the role of Lowlife Oriental, a henchman stationed outside the Chinatown gambling den, on Willis’s first episode as Special Guest Star.
