01x09 - Episode 9

[bunniefuu]

I love you.

I love His Highness, too.

How many months? How many years?

Or maybe for the rest of my life?

I will wait only for His Highness.

No matter what happens,
I want to be His Highness's "Pop."

Forever

Tin

Grandmother

Grandma

Grandmother

I went to see Pop.

What did Pop say?

He said he wanted things to go back to the way they were.

Just like before

How can we become the same, Grandma?

How can we become the same?

My Beloved Grandchild

The biggest obstacle for Pop and me is—

The two of us
were born into circumstances different from those of others—

I thought
we weren't socially accepted

But as long as the two of us love each other deeply—

I believe that
if we hold hands, we can get through this, Grandma.

But right now, the problem isn't who it is—

I realized that myself, too.

It's me he wants to change, Grandma.

I am the one who—

It's something I want to crush and destroy.

But then, Grandma, how can we love each other?

So how can we love each other?

It's okay, it's okay.

I'm with Grandma.

My grandma is here.

It's okay.

Sakchai

Mr. Sakchai

Where are you going?

You're going to the mine, right?

Let's go. I'll come along, too.

Hey, what do you mean, "mine"?
There's no such thing.

So why was it the other day...

How did we make a profit?

That money is

It's to trick stupid people
into investing more.

Did you trick me?

Did you lie to me?

You tricked me... you Sakuchai!

Did you trick me?

You tricked me.
Do you even know who I am? Huh?

Did you trick me?

You must know by now, right?
Who you are.

As of now, your status as the owner is—

Do you really think I'm still going to help you?

If you still have any power,
you wouldn't have to struggle like this to extort money.

That's government money.
That's government money.

Give me my money back.

If I don't have the money, I'll end up in jail.
I have to get that money back.

That's you we're talking about.

After all, you're the one who stole it yourself, you idiot.

Let's go

Hey, wait a minute!

Don't take that.
Give it back.

Let me go! Give it back!
Sakchai!

I don't want to go to prison, Sackchai!

Chat, hold on a sec

- What happened? Why do you look like that?
- Grandma

I'm tired.
First of all, I just want to rest.

What's wrong?
Go tell Grandma.

Prince Chatthong Warakunwatthin

His Highness is the Royal Ministry of Finance's—

I was indicted on charges of embezzlement.

What a ridiculous charge

My son said it was embezzlement,

The People's Committee

Investigating the account
that Chat Tone Waka-sama was in charge of

We were 200,000 baht short in total.

Pop is already planning to attack us.

They're criticizing my son.

My son has already been fired.
How could he have committed fraud?

So, that's a whopping 200,000 baht

If Chat-nii says he really did it,
is there any proof?

All the evidence is at the police station.

I recommend that you
go along quietly with me

Take him with you.

No way

Father, Grandmother

Dad, please don't let him do that.
Dad

Dad, help me!

Whoa, Your Highness!

This is tough, Pop.

Chat-Waka has been indicted on charges of embezzlement from the Ministry of Finance

Dad, Dad

Dad, help me!

How can you be so foolish as to believe
that there's such a thing as mining investment?

And did they even invest government funds?

That's government money, Chat.

I'm sorry

I made a mistake.
I was a fool, Father.

Dad, help me.
I can't stay here.

Last night, I couldn't sleep at all.
The mosquitoes were biting me all over.

Are you coming to me now, begging for help?

Why didn't I think of that when I was doing it?

The People's Party is already plotting to attack the royal family.

The People's Committee currently
holds overwhelming power.

Whether it's a minister or a bureau director—

There isn't a single person who will lend a hand.

I...

I reviewed the documents provided by the police.

The Royal Metal Industry Bureau's military pensions
are the sole responsibility of Chat-nii.

If that happens, it will go to court.

Chat Brother

Chat-nii will probably
be sent to prison for several years.

No way, I can't go to prison, Tin.
My brother can't go to prison.

I can't go to prison, Tin.
Help my brother.

Ding... ding, help me!
I really can't go to prison.

Dad, help me!

- Dad, I can't go to prison.
- Be quiet.

Crying like a pig or a dog—
how can you show your face to others?

Act with pride.
Be worthy of my son.

Tin

- Chat-nii
- Tin, don't abandon me

Tin, check these guys out.

- Chat-san
- Check out these guys!

I'll find a way to help my brother.

Don't leave me behind

Don't abandon your big brother, Tin.

Tin, check out these guys.
Don't abandon your big brother.

Damron is acquainted with a member of the royal family on the People's Committee.

Is there a way to improve my chat tone?

Damron has known Chatthong since he was a child.

He must be like a son or grandson to him, too.

Before long, we, too,
will be “standing on the same piece of gold paper”
[maintaining a friendly relationship / being married]

As for ChatTone,
I probably won't be able to help at all.

One more thing:
Regarding the engagement of Tinnakorn and Rutaisiri

First, let me get rid of it.

Why did the engagement suddenly fall through?

The country is in the midst of turmoil.

Besides, the wedding probably won't take place right away.

First, you should call off the engagement.

Uncle

Uncle, is there anything we can do?

- Help Chat-nii...
- That's enough, Tin

Using the country as an excuse?

Don't think I don't know.

That he had been secretly involved with the People's Party

Are you planning to run your business based on connections?

So that's why you
don't want to have anything to do with Larkunwatin ever again, right?

Even though he is a member of the royal family,
how could he bow his head to a commoner?

I have absolutely no pride.

If I were to bow my head to a commoner—

Isn't it because they have connections in the People's Party, too?

That's why you came to me for help, isn't it?

My son has such a handsome face, and yet...

After stealing government money,
how dare you criticize others?

If that's what you're good at,
then you should find a way to help each other on your own.

We won't get involved.
We'd just end up getting dragged into it.

Why did my father have to
break off relations with Larkunwatin like this?

Isn't that okay?

You wanted to call off your engagement to Tinnakon, didn't you?

The reason I didn't want to marry P'Tin was

Because I don't want to force P'Tin to do anything.

But I don't want to cut ties.

And that just adds insult to injury when he needs help.

You have to listen to your dad.

Washin is a member of the Blue Badge group.
He takes a different stance from the People's Party.

If we get involved,
we'll end up suffering too.

Some time ago, your father was berated by the People's Party.

A Traitor to the Nation
A Traitor to the Country

Then why does Father
take their side?

Or is it money, or—

For profit?

Ah, it's because there's a profit.

It's so we can survive.

You're a woman.
What wisdom do you have to understand anything?

Just shut up and do as I say.

From now on, do not interfere
with Tinnakhon and the Warakunwatthin Palace
ever again.

No matter who I turn to for help,

There's
no one who can help us, Grandma.

Even members of the royal family who were dissatisfied with the People's Party
refuse to lend a helping hand.

I'm afraid of getting dragged into it.

So there's really
no way for us to help with the chat, is there?

Princess

What's up, Euwam?

I've arrived.

- I've arrived
- I'm here

Chat Tone

- Chat Tone
- Grandma

Little Boy

Grandma, did you know?

Last night, I couldn't sleep at all.
Look at where the mosquito bit me—see?

How'd you get here, huh?

That's right, why was my brother suddenly released?

Oh...

I was officially appointed
to handle this case—

I am an attorney.

If the People's Committee decides to impose a penalty—

I am afraid that this might be viewed as persecution.

So I gave ChatTone a chance.

I have thus proven that I am an exception.

Special Provisions

So, that means Chat Tone
doesn't have to go to prison, right?

I don't have to go to prison anymore.

If we could find all the money and return it to the government agencies,



Did they only give me two weeks to scrape together the money?

Yes, this is still a lenient measure.

I was lucky to have someone put in a good word for me.

Young Master Chat was given the opportunity to make amends.

Who put in a good word for you?

Please forgive me for not being able to say more.

Excuse me.

Grandmother

I really missed Grandma!

I'll sleep well tonight, Grandma.

Young Master

You helped Chat-nii, didn't you?

Yes

I was the one who helped Young Master Chat.

But please trust me, Your Highness.

I am not hiding anything.

I won't say anything.

I came to say thank you.

Reaching out to help people like us who are struggling is

It might cause you difficulties as well

It really brings back a lot of memories.

Your Highness, please do not speak so sarcastically.

I'm not being sarcastic, Pop.

Are you really saying that?

Right now, Warakun Watin
has no power left at all.

My father himself was on the opposite side of the People's Party

If you're still involved with me...

You'd be in a bind, too.

However, I accept that suffering.

My Lord, I ask only that
My wish is simply—

Will the two of us ever be able to go back to the way things were?

Can you do that, Your Highness?

Your Highness, would you please forgive me?

There's nothing I can forgive you for

You have your own reasons.

You have your own beliefs.

There are things I feel you have to do.

We're no longer just two people in love

You're part of the new administration.

As for me,
Wara-kun-watin

My Name

Country of Origin

Family

That's everything you're trying to destroy

However, His Highness is not my enemy.

Does anyone else feel that way?

Right now, the People's Party is keeping a close eye on the royal family.

My father himself is standing on the opposite side from you.

If you're still involved with me,

You might be targeted, too.

I don't want to get in the way of your decision.

Me and—

Between you and your beliefs

Thanks, Pop.

Personal Belongings from the Palace That Are Available for Sale

The total amount hasn't even reached 100,000 yet.

Especially now that the economy is in a slump,

I don't think it will sell easily.

Just give me two weeks

I'm going to corner him.

There's no way to make that much money.

To be honest,

I just met up with a British friend.

He is looking for a place to build a hotel.

He said,

If you're willing to buy my palace,

The price is 100,000 baht.

There is only one exit

In other words, do we need to sell this palace?

I've already received the money.

That's how you make a living.

Earn a living honestly

Please don't go through any trouble

I'm sad, too.

I'm sorry
I couldn't take care of all of you
until the very end.

Thank you so much for everything.

For helping to take care of the palace
and for taking care of us,

Euwam

This is yours.

Euwam isn't going anywhere.

From childhood through adulthood,
the princess raised Euwam with great love and care.

Euwam would like to
serve Her Highness the Princess.

That Euwam...

From now on

Our lives are

We don't know yet how things will turn out.

Please don't say hurtful things to me.

Euwam isn't scary at all.

I'm really not scared at all.

Please allow Euwam to serve Her Highness the Princess.
Your Highness

Thanks, Euwam.

Washin

It's okay

It's okay.

We're in this together.

I'm here with you

Mom loves you.

I love you.

I hereby appoint you as my knight.

Yes, Your Highness.

I would like to present His Highness with a hibiscus flower.

- What?! No way!
- Why?

This way

This one is better.

Come on, Your Highness

Wow, that's cute!

I shouldn't take it off, right?

Don't take it off.
Leave it on like this.

Because this one is the cutest

[Warakunwatin Palace]

The Warakunwatin Palace Was Sold

I just found out about that myself.

Apparently, they're selling it to foreigners to build a hotel.

So, when are you moving,
and where do you plan to live?

No one knows about that yet.

Your Highness

Where are you planning to live?

But no matter what happens,

I will find His Highness.

Do I really have to live here?

Whose fault is it?

He thinks they've even taken away his bed and driven him this far.

It's pop!

That guy betrayed the country.

Once our power was taken away,
we fell into ruin like this.

Pop

What the people of the Warakunwatin Palace
had to face was

It's not Pop's fault

Pop did everything he could to help them.

Even though those in power were keeping watch,

I always used to think

If this world were to change...

The love between me and the Young Master—

It will be even simpler

But the reality is

It pushed the two of us
even further apart than before

Why don't you hold off on thinking that far ahead for now?

Stay calm

Then let's go find out where Young Master Tin went.

Let's eat, kids!

If something like this happens,
this is how you eat it.

At least we can tell ourselves
that we still have something to eat.

Grandmother

Euwam, water...

Should I go see a doctor?

It's okay.
Mom's fine.

Maybe it's because there's a lot of dust.

If you drink some water, you'll feel better.

Are you feeling better?

It's okay.

Dad is going to Korat tomorrow.

Why are you going, Dad?

I received
a summons from a member of the royal family.

There are still
many people who disagree with what happened.

Maybe this isn't
over yet.

Father

I don't want your father to ever
get involved in this kind of problem again.

Dad, you have neither money nor power left now.

There's simply no room left for any kind of conflict with anyone.

Dad
I'm worried about you, Dad.

But Dad isn't scary.

We will not accept such a downfall

Dad Regains His Honor

Restore the dignity of our royal family

If it were up to Dad to destroy it...

How am I supposed to face my ancestors?

To pick up my luggage

I'm going with Dad.

Do I have to go with you, too?

If he were out of Dad’s sight and earshot,
he’d probably get into trouble again right away.

Please enjoy your meal.

I want to eat Lanjuan curry
[a royal dish from central Thailand]

First, you should try this soup.
Chat-nii

This Tom Jarp Chai is delicious.
[Vegetable stew]

Euwam made it really well.

There are no vacancies here.

There are only positions that involve lifting and carrying things.
Is His Highness capable of doing that?

I will

I can handle any kind of work.
Please let me do it.

I don't think I could be a prince.

So, is it possible to dye fabric?

There are only porters here.

Is that possible?

Okay.

Yes, I can.

Wow!

Grandmother

Grandma

What's the matter?

Euwam,

You know, every time I ask you to keep an eye on the coconut milk...

I always end up burning my aunt's stuff.

I'm getting old, and I'm sick of it.

Wait, what are you doing here?

I'm going to make and sell sweets.

Is it my fault?

Because I can't find a job,

It used to be that everyone had to suffer like this

- If we hadn't come...
- Stop it

Don't blame yourself, Tin.

Grandma will tell you
What our lives are all about

No one can stay in the same place forever.

Even though I was up high yesterday,

I might crash today.

Or even if I cried yesterday...

I might actually be smiling today.

It doesn't matter what it is.
That's not important.

In other words, can we—the people here—
still stand up and fight?

Can I still keep this up?
That's all there is to it.

We still have options and strength,

If you're still breathing,

Even just this alone
means I'm more fortunate than most people.

However, Grandma has never suffered this much before.

I don't get what the problem is with that.

Even if that’s how things were yesterday,
that’s fine, too.

But Grandma thinks it's just as good that we're living like this today, too.
Grandma thinks that's just as good, too.

How do people who are struggling
and leading difficult lives manage to make ends meet?—

You'll come to understand it.

That's no big deal.

I can make a living

Maybe this is...

It might not be a punishment.

This is a trial,
and it will serve as a lesson.

So that you can
learn more about this world

I had never thought of it that way.

Well, let's think about it now.

Come on, let's help Grandma make dessert.

Come on, give it a try.

- Do as Grandma does
- Please let me try

And use shredded coconut

Euwam, that's boring.
It's not even worth talking about.

What are you doing? You're acting like a senile old person—
you're forgetting things.

I'm sick of Grandma

If you're going to call Euwam an old man, then...

What about the princess?

You're still getting on my nerves, aren't you?

- I'm going to beat you up.
- Are you still calling her a "girl"?

I always end up burning the pot.
I'm going to get scolded before long.

- Oh, please give it a try.
- Grandma, please tell me.

Do it like this—hold it with both hands.
Both hands, okay?

Press slowly, gently—so gently—
without using any force

That

It's "Ponpan"!
[Denden Taiko]

I hope Euwam sells well.

- Yes
- Please take good care of Grandma

Yes, Young Master.

Grandmother

I got a call from school today about an interview.

That's nice.
See? I told you so, Grandma.

If we put our hearts into it,

There is always a solution to every problem.

May I ask Grandma for her blessing?

Of course!

May you be blessed with good luck today,
and may your wishes come true.

I hope I can get the job I've been hoping for.

Grandma,
Thank you so much.

- I'm off.
- Okay, good luck!

Thank you

[Will the people gain freedom?
Or will it simply be a change in those in power?]

It's Ponpan!

People like this tend to twist the facts when they write.

The people haven't seen the results yet.
They're still afraid.

But these guys
are inciting people who hate us.

[Wat Klong Tha School]

I never would have dreamed
that someone like Young Master would become a schoolteacher.

Work is a little tough.

Be responsible for teaching all subjects

Furthermore, children of different ages
must study together.

Young Master, are you really all right?

Just call me Tinnakon.

As for work...

No matter how heavy it is or how tired I am,
I’m totally fine.

In any case, thank you so much
for giving me this opportunity.

Even those who can't read or write yet

Even those who have just started studying here

Don't be shy

It's the teacher's first day here, after all.

Today, the teacher is going to teach us how to read.

What are known as Thai consonants

These are all Thai consonants.

The first character is written like this

Okay, so it’s pronounced “Ko-Kai.”
Let’s all say it together.

"Ko-Kai"

Nice job!

Next, the second character

[May His Majesty’s life be a better one.]

Let's study math today.

Everyone, raise your fingers and imitate the teacher.
Let's say it together: One!

- One
- Add

- Add
- The same number

- One
- One

- Wa
- Ni

"Good job"—that means



H

K

A Ant

In other words

Ant

Good job!

[Nakhon Ratchasima Province]

I’m at your service, Your Majesty.

I heard that Your Majesty would be attending,
so I hurried over.

There's one more person.
Adur is here.

There are still some people who don't agree with them.

The traitor who is plotting to turn Siam into a communist state

We must die together

If we can eliminate our rebels,

I can go back to the palace
with the funds, just like before, right?

Hey, everything's going well, right?

Everything is going smoothly without a hitch.

Wonderful

We have many important guests here today.

Oh, look

Your Majesty, I offer my respects.

Dear Kitty,
Happy Birthday!

I'm counting on you for Siam's future.

Thank you

I read the government's new law.

If there's anything I can do to help,

If we can work together to contribute to the nation’s prosperity,
I would be truly honored.

Of course.

Let's discuss that matter at length, Your Majesty.

Please take your time and enjoy your stay.

Thank you very much

Oh, right.
What should I do about the project I was told to work on?

It's boring, isn't it? I'm bored, too.

When we planned the change in government

The new Siam I had imagined
is something else entirely.

I just moved to a new country

There's no way you can do everything perfectly in just one day, right?

I wasn't expecting perfection

I just never
would have dreamed I'd end up seeing something like this.

The Things We Hated

Have we ended up like that, too?

Is there a problem?

We're really doing this for the people, aren't we?

That's a weird question.

Out there, some people are unemployed,
and some people scold us.

But deep down,

We're having a party as if nothing had happened.

Some people say that the old master has been replaced by a new one.

You can't run politics based solely on ideals.

However, you want us to participate—

Talking About Ideals

They spoke about dignity
and equality, and invited me

It seems they've forgotten why we came here.

I'll never forget

Governing a country
isn’t just about writing beautiful dreams on paper.

We must compromise.
We must forge an alliance.

We must poach top talent.

Otherwise, the government cannot survive.
The country will not move forward.

And the people who believe in us

The People Who Have High Expectations of Us

How many more years do you plan to make us wait?

Do you think the country will change?

Without getting even a speck of mud on it

If that's the case,

You're way too reckless.

Please come this way.

Happy Birthday!

Thank you, everyone. Thank you.
Thank you so much.

Thank you very much

Thank you

Oh, Mr. Tin

Huh... What do you mean, "a lot"?

The kids gave them to me.
I thought I should share some with the principal.

This rambutan belongs to the Sonpon family’s

Mangosteen at Niyom Farm

This Glatone is probably
Miss Knocknoi's.

The principal remembers everything.

A while back, I used to
buy vegetables and fruit regularly from the children's parents.

That's why I brought the kids here to study.

I went from being a customer to becoming a teacher.

That's right.

Yes

I heard the government agency wants you to help with the explanation.

About the New System—In Terms Even Children Can Understand

[People's Party Proclamation No. 1, Buddhist Era 2547

]

This place used to be quiet.

However, these days, more and more children are coming here to study.

In other words, parents want their children to study.

Because you'll learn to read and write

When they grow up,
so they won’t have to go through the same hardships I did

It's a good thing that the government provides funding for educational support.

I don't know how things will ultimately turn out politically.

But what if—

As long as the kids can study like this,
I don't think it's all that bad.

Mr. Tin, please take a look.
Did I write it correctly?

Which one?

"When I grow up, I want to be
as talented and capable as Mr. Tin."

"That way, there would be no need to create vegetable gardens, till the fields, or grow rice,"

"My grandmother and my mother, who is ill at home—"

"You'll be able to get the money you need to provide care."

"I want to be a good person."

Great job!
You got them all right.

Thank you very much.

- Okay, go ahead and copy it down and keep reading.
- Okay.

I'll write as much as I can.

What a good kid.

- Pop
- Ah, Jantora

Aunt Nuang
Would it be okay if I had one more meal at Aunt Nuang's today?

Of course

So, what else did you buy?

Someone from the print shop bought it for me.
I heard it was delicious.

This looks really delicious.

This snack

It looks just like a princess's treat.

I used to help out there, you know.

By now… I don’t know.

How are you doing?

Can I help Aunt Nuann cook today?

I want to go home having mastered “the art of the ladle,”
[my cooking skills]

Let's go.

Sorry to keep you waiting

Wow!

Thank you, Your Highness.

I went over to help Grandma bake some cookies.

Ah...

If you want to address me,

This

His Highness must have made this, right?

How did you know?

Wait, look at this.
It's bigger than the others.

The color is also deep

How can you say
this was done by the princess?

You don't have to eat anymore.

Oh, Your Highness...

I'm just starting to get hungry.

A candy this big, bent,
and strange-looking

If you eat it, you'll just get an upset stomach.
You don't need to eat it.

Your Highness

Just kidding.

Oh, come on!

Even if I look weird, I...

I think it's probably the best.

Just say the right thing,
and you won't have to eat it.

- Is it good?
- It's good.

The most delicious

If it tastes good,
sit down and eat it properly.

It's really delicious.

- I want some, too.
- Here, I'll give you some.

What do you think?

Delicious

After all...

It's not something I made, after all.

Their school is really great.

Kids, don't be afraid.

Be confident—
You're definitely capable of doing it.

I'm so nervous,
I feel like I'm about to pee myself!

Oh, let's hurry up and go.

If you don't, and you answer the question,
I'll pee right along with you.

"Okay, then, teacher, may we please go to the restroom?"

Sure, go ahead.
You can go to the bathroom first if you want.

Let's go!

Oh, Your Highness

What are you doing here?

I brought the kids
to the Q&A session.

The children

Yeah

I just became a TIN teacher.

What about you?

As a representative of the organization,

I came here to serve as one of the judges.

Your Highness, how are you?

I'm doing great.

What about you?

Um...

I guess that's okay?

He doesn't look very energetic, does he?

Is something wrong?

Right now, we are

They were accused of being the kind of people who “pick fruit before it’s ripe”
[premature]

Impatient and

Even though we're not quite ready yet,
we're rushing to change the country too quickly.

The first thing that came to mind was

We—

After changing the system of government

I thought a lot of things would get better

However, these days

People are still struggling

There are still people who try to one-up me, and

There are still people who try to take our profits

Sometimes

I began to think

Everything I've lost is

Is it really worth it?

Whether it's too fast or too slow

That doesn't matter anymore.

Now that the change has already taken place,

I think it all depends on how we can improve it.

That's right.

I still feel the same way today.

What should I do?

I still have some questions.

Pop

Nothing ever goes exactly the way you want it to.

Look at me

At first, I thought my life was—

I thought it was a done deal.

I'm just starting over, too.

Did you know?

In my classroom,

Children who at first couldn't even write their own names, or

There were even some children who were on the verge of losing access to a school education.

But now I can read books.

I can also write characters

Have the courage to think

Have the courage to dream

Maybe what you did was...

Overall, we may not have seen any results yet.

But at least

Well...

I'm starting to have an impact on someone.

I'm rooting for you!

Don't give up just yet.

His Highness is truly a strong person.

I'm just trying to keep on living from here on out.

You're the same

Get stronger, okay?

Got it?

I'd better get going.

Good luck!

See you again

See you again, Your Highness.

I still want to walk by your side

Will this gardenia make me miss him?

A source reported that there had been some unusual activity.

It looks like His Majesty Washin is really serious about this one.

Everything will probably go back to the way it was before in no time.

What do you think your father will do?

Is there a problem, Your Highness?
