A fight between a knight and a patron

Everyone is talking about this on Facebook. The debate between legislative candidates Chen Chi-chung and Kuomintang Legislator Chiu Yi finally took place in Kaohsiung yesterday. It's not only a fight over "wicked hair," it's also "a fight between a knight and a 'Nicole' patron." God, this is hilarious. 
Here are some interesting quotes from press:
1. 邱毅的妮可都是假的,只有假髮是真的。
(Qiu1 Yi4 de Ni2 Ke3 Dou1 Shi4 Jia3 de, Zhi2 You3 Jia2 Fa4 shi4 zhen1 de)
The "Nicole" prostitutes Chiu Yi hired are false. Only his wig is real.
2. 到底你身分證上的照片有沒有戴假髮?
(Dao4 Di3 ni3 shen1 fen4 zheng4 jian4 shang4 de zhao4 pian4 you3 mei2 you3 dai4 jia2 fa3)
Did you wear a wig in your ID photo?
3. 這場辯論是「俠客對嫖客」
(Zhe4 chang3 bian4 lun4 shi4 xia2 ke4 dui4 piao2 ke4)
This debate is a fight between a knight and a patron.


辯論 bian4 lun4 (n) debate
俠客 xia2 ke4 (n) a hero
嫖客 piao2 ke4 (n) patron of a brothel; sex-buyer
