01x06 - Episode 6

[bunniefuu]

Hey, hey, calm down.

We still have the University Entrance Exam.

Huh?

I’m so jealous of you.

You have boys trailing behind you from the first day until the graduation day.

So which one are you choosing?

[While everyone’s waiting for their university entrance result,]

[we decided to go on a trip to the beach together.]

[We meant to make this trip the most fun memories of our school days]

[before we part ways to grow in our own separate paths.]

Look at them.

They’re fooling around like a child.

You’re right.

They’re so childish.

Look.

By the way.

You don’t like childish boys, right?

Yeah.

Then, who do you think is the most childish one in our group?

Probably Tong?

Look!

Tong, be careful!

Don’t go too far.

A NEW JOURNEY

I can’t believe we’ve graduated.

Have you guys ever thought about

what you want to do when you grow up?

I want to be an engineer who’s also the best magician in the country.

So I can ask for Lin’s hand.

Who would want to marry Mai the Scratcher?

Ja-Oh!

I want to win a scholarship and continue my studies in the US.

I want to study abroad too.

Going to the US?

Going Abroad?

You’d better start by getting your A-Z right.

Aren’t you being too harsh, Bank?

My dream

is to become a professional basketball player.

Keep going until I get to the NBA.

Bank.

Huh?

Yours is even harder than Dong’s.

What about you, Ja-Oh?

Hmm.

I want to be an ordinary housewife to a rich husband.

That’s enough.

So I can draw to my heart’s content.

That seems relaxing.

What about you, Lin?

I want to be a marine scientist

because I love the ocean.

I want the marine animals to stay with us for a long time.

What about you, Tong?

What do you want to do when you grow up?

I want to be an awesome person.

Why would you want to become an awesome person?

Because someone awesome makes the world a better place to live.

Wave, wave, wave, wave.

Damn it.

Mai, are you asking for it?

Why are you laughing?

Why so serious?

You’re just grilling some porkballs.

I don’t want it to get burned.

Sometimes if you let it get burned, you’ll get another taste.

Leave it to char a little, you’ll get a little taste of life.

That’s how life is.

But if you leave them for too long, they’re inedible.

You have to get it just right.

Sounds complicated.

There’s actually nothing complicated.

You just have to put your best effort into doing it.

When you have the chance to choose what you want to do,

then you should do your best.

That’s what an adult’s life is like.

We’re still on the subject of porkballs, right?

Hey, what are you guys doing?

Mai, you b*stard.

Lin!

These porkballs only have flour in them but they’re so delicious.

Hey, are the porkballs delicious because the one cooking them is cute?

Are you talking about me?

You are nasty.

Here.

That’s enough.

Hey!

Where are you going, Tong?

Leave me alone.

Tong, don’t eat while playing.

Lin, did you even eat?

It’s fine, go ahead.

Do you want some more?

This one’s not burnt either.

Here.

Let’s get into the tent.

Pao.

What are you doing here by yourself?

Lin doesn’t like me.

How do you know?

Have you confessed to her?

No, I could just feel it.

That’s good.

At least you can still be friends with her.

But I think she likes you.

Though, you’re not her type.

You should grow up.

Otherwise, you’re going to break Lin’s heart.

Did I really make it?

Here it is.

Nontawat Kiatpeera.

You made it!

You made it, Tong!

Yay!

Tong made it into university.

He’s going to be studying in Bangkok!

Toey!

Toey! Did you hear me?

Tong made it!

Tong mated?

Tong made it into university.

Tong made it into university?

That means he doesn’t have to study at night anymore?

Yes.

I’m so glad.

Toey, you’re being loud again.

Well, I’m glad.

He doesn’t have to study at night so I can sleep.

[I surprisingly made it into the faculty of communication arts.]

[I was determined to make a cool action movie, just like Panna Rittikrai’s, my hero.]

Hello.

Lin?

Tong.

Where are you going?

I’ll be right back, Mom.

Nontawat Kiatpeera.

Number 52.



Hello.

Darunee, am I too late?

No, you’re not.

What’s your bet?



Where did you get the number?

Tong made it into university.

Did Dong make it?

I have no idea.

By the way, if you’re going to make a bet now,

I’m paying only half the winning prize.

What?

Only a half?

Damn it.

Mama!

Ma!

I made it, Ma!

I made it.

What did you do, meatball?

Don’t tell me it’s…

That’s right.

That’s right, Ma!

You’ve managed to do 10 push-ups?

That’s not it, Ma!

I made it into university, Ma.

Everyone, I made it to university.

To celebrate my Meatball getting into university,

it’s on the house for everyone today.

You can have as many as you want, it’s on me.

Eat up!

Yay!

My daughter made it to university.

-I made it to university, Mom. -Really?

I made it!

We have to celebrate.

I’ll take you out for some celebration.

Honey.

You have to be careful.

Come on.

I’m fine.

My daughter made it to university, we have to celebrate.

Is that right?

That’s right, Dad.

We’d better celebrate for 7 days and 7 nights straight.

Great!

That’s not possible.

Because you have to go return the blessing with me first.

I asked for a blessing for you to get into the university.

If you make it, you have to stay at the temple for 7 days and 7 nights.

Oh.

So sacred.

Amen.

She finally made it.

It sure runs in the blood.

Everyone in the family is so smart.

I finally get to send all of my kids to university.

Your Grandma can finally rest in peace.

You’re talking rubbish.

Right, I have to let your siblings know.

And also your uncles and aunties.

I don’t think you have to tell everyone, Ma.

Oh, your other aunty-in-law too, we haven’t met in a while.

My sister too.

Your sister too? Alright.

Did I do well, Grandma?

You are the best.

Good that I got your genetics.

If I had Dad’s, I would have been dumb.

Here, dumb, huh?

There you go.

Hey!

Hey! Be quiet.

It itches again

It’s itchy.

Here, get the stuff for Dao’s house and have it delivered.

Aren’t you going to your friends today?

No, I’m too lazy to.

Is that so?

Then should we have a late-night movie tonight, son?

Shall we do it in the afternoon?

You got it.

You guys.

It’s broad daylight.

Don’t you have any thoughts about helping me with work?

Do you want to join us?

We can have a separate room.

When’s your result coming out?

What result, Mom?

Well, your university entrance exam’s result.

Don’t tell me you forgot.

Right, when was that?

I knew it.

You forgot, didn’t you?

Why are you looking at me?

I’m not the one going to school.

My, you guys.

Dad, who’s Mom mad at?

I have no idea.

Oh?

How can I know if you don’t?

How can I know?

She’s not mad at me.

She’s mad at you.

How can I know what she’s mad about?

Why’s she mad at me, then?

I don’t know.

If you don’t know then how can I know?

It’s not about father or son.

But I don’t know and you have to know

because she’s mad at you.

How can I know?

If you don’t know then how can I know?

Well, I don’t know.

If you don’t know then how can I know?

How then hell would I know?

I’m getting a headache the more I talk to you.

Honey, wait for me.

Dad, let me go with you.

Don’t!

You stay outside.

I’ve always concentrated on my study, Tong.

I’ve been studying and studying all day every day.

Why don’t I get to study in the faculty I wanted to?

I didn’t make it, Tong.

I don’t get to study marine science at Kasetsart University.

But…

at least you get to be close to what you love.

Also, Songkhla is closer to the ocean than Bangkok.

Isn’t that a good thing?

I’ve put all my efforts into it all this time.

You know that too, right?

I put so much effort into studying.

I’ve been trying so hard throughout these 12 years.

In the end, I just failed.

Lin.

I have something to tell you.

The thing is…

Can you not say you like me now?

Why?

Why?

Tong! Tong!

Halt!

Are you guys heading to a Temple Fair?

I’m going to cheer my girlfriend up.

You? Have a girlfriend?

-I don’t buy that. -I’m heading off!

-I don’t buy that. -I’m heading off.

Let’s go!

Honey, the bee wax is almost out.

Then please refill it, honey.

Sure.

Lin.

You can take a rest, you don’t have to help us out.

It’s alright, I can do it.

Don’t be sad.

It's not like you didn't make it into university at all.

You still get to study what you want to study.

I understand, Pa.

But I’m still disappointed.

Lin.

Lin.

Look behind you.

Over there.

You guys.

Lin.

You said you wanted to protect marine lives like us, right?

We think what you want to do is great.

Don’t be sad.

Keep it up, Lin.

Make the world a nicer place to live.

That’s right.

Keep on protecting the ocean and the marine life, Lin.

It doesn’t matter where you are.

You can do it wherever.

Only you can define your worth,

not by where you are.

Damn.

That’s the first time Dong says anything logical.

Lin, you are an awesome person for us no matter what.

That’s right.

Thank you, guys.

Tong’s so funny.

In return for you protecting the marine lives like us all this time,

we would like to dedicate this song to you.

Guys, get ready.

Go, go.

Ow, ow.

Are you alright?

Got it.

Hurry up.

Ready, guys?

Ready!

When anything goes bad, bring it to me, I can fix that.

I can fix that!

VDO, CD, or a mood that’s gone bad, I will fix that.

I can fix that!

[J’LEE KHAO-PERB SUKHOTHAI]

Ma.

I’m just off to study.

I’m just going away to study, I’m not going anywhere.

I’ll be back when I’ve finished my study.

It’s not going to be long.

My Meatball.

It’s alright, Ma.

I won’t be away for long.

I will definitely miss you.

Ma!

That’s enough, I will miss my train.

I’ve been raising you for so long

ever since you don't know how to wipe your own butt.

Ma!

What are you saying, that’s embarrassing.

Don’t forget to call me when you’ve arrived.

You must send me a letter as well.

Yes.

Postcards too.

Telegrams too.

That’s too much, Ma.

Ma.

Ow!

Travel in peace, Meatball.

Ow.

I’m sorry that I can’t take you to Bangkok with me, Roger.

He’s not even saying goodbye to his parents.

- Take good care of yourself in the meantime. - I told you not to buy it for him.

He made it into the university so I bought it for him.

Mom. Dad.

When you send Roger to Bangkok, please send it properly.

Take good care of it.

Please don’t let there be any scratches, not even a little bit.

Oh, my baby. I’m not leaving.

There, there.

Don’t miss me.

Do I look good yet, Pa?

You’re the most handsome one.

You’re all set.

Mai, here you go.

Oh?

My, why is it so heavy?

Ma, I'm going away to university

not settling into somewhere new.

Right.

Oh, hold on, hold on.

I forgot Grandpa’s picture.

You’ll need his picture for good blessings.

Grandpa’s picture as well?

Yeah!

Bring the one that he looks handsome.

Alright!

Ma!

Not only handsome but bring one that’s small in size, Ma.

A small one?

A small one.

To put in my pocket and stuff.

Fine, fine.

It’s no good when it’s too big, Pa.

Are you really going to go by yourself?

We can take you there.

It’s alright, Mom.

I’m all grown up now.

She’s going to be fine, honey.

She’s just going to be in Chiangmai, not so far away.

That’s right, I’m right around the corner.

You should worry about Dad.

Take good care of each other.

You don’t have to worry about me.

I’m much healthier than before.

I want to see you graduate.

Take good care of yourself.

There,

why are you crying?

We’ll be fine.

I’ll quickly finish my study and get back to take care of you guys.

Live your own life.

Live your life happily.

Do what you love.

Call us if you miss us.

Or perhaps, visit us.

Don’t worry about Mom and Dad.

Live your life to the fullest.

May the odd be ever in your favor.

Take care of yourself.

Sis.

What is it?

I’ll just leave to study for a little while.

I’ll be back in a heartbeat.

Once you've arrived in Hat Yai,

don’t forget to send me some fried chicken.

Hey.

You sure put food first.

Alright.

But in return, you have to study hard.

Alright?

I got it.

Hey there.

Have you finished packing up, Lin?

Yes, Ma.

Come, let me help you.

Don't overdo yourself while you're there.

Don’t skip your meals and get lots of rest.

Alright, Ma.

Here, take some medicine with you.

Don’t forget to take some medicine when you’re sick.

Alright, Pa.

And don't overdo yourself, just like your Ma said.

I got it.

Thank you.

I will take good care of myself

and have my meals on time.

You don’t have to worry about me, Pa, Ma.

Yes.

Give me a hug.

Come in here.

Let me join in the hug too.

You want to join the hug too?

You’ll have to stay here.

Don’t forget the fried chicken, Sis.

Alright.

With lots of fried red onion, okay?

Look at her, Ma.

You want lots of fried onion?

Then I’ll let you have only fried onion and not the chicken.

Sounds good.

No.

No?

[Finally, it’s time for us to embark on the journey.]

[Though interesting things are awaiting ahead of us,]

[I still miss the old things here.]

[Tong’s Excercise book.]

Tong.

-Yes, Mom? -Hurry up.

You’ll miss your train.

I’m almost done.

I won’t miss my train.

Tong.

When you live in Bangkok

you have to wear underwear, you got that?

Yes.

Go, your Dad’s waiting.

Let’s go.

Don’t get a girlfriend yet.

Don’t let anyone touch your crotch.

I know that.

I’ll miss you.

Visit me sometimes.

I got that.

[That year, each of us has to separate and pursue our journeys.]

[Pao made it into Business Administration at Chiangmai.]

[One can say he's a step closer to his dream of studying abroad.]



[Ja-Oh made it into the faculty of fine arts.]

[She’d probably get to draw all day long just as she wanted.]

[Mai the Scratcher made it into the faculty of engineering.]

[It seems he’s getting to be an engineer just as he wished.]

[Bank made it into the faculty of political science]

[which he has never thought of studying]

[but he doesn’t seem bothered.]

Excuse me.

Are you traveling alone?

Let’s retake the university entrance exam, friends.

-Let’s retake the exam! Yay! -[Oh, I almost forgot about b*ner Dong.]

[He’s the only one who didn’t make it into any university.]

[So he decided to wait and retake the exam next year.]

Friends!

Friends!

Dong! What are you doing here?

I’m inviting friends to retake the entrance exam.

Let me see what the sign says.

‘Entant’.

Who wrote that for you?

I wrote it myself.

You wrote it yourself?

It’s called “entrance”.

Entranth.

Entrance.

Entran.

Entrance.

Not ‘trann’.

Entranth.

My!

Sir, what about my friends?

They’re all going to university.

They’re all going to university?

They’re all gone.

You’re not my student.

You’re really something, Dong.

[Sawankhalok]

Lin.

Tong.

Have you been here for long?

A little while.

This is for you.

What’s this?

A shirt I especially painted for you.

This one’s a limited edition.

Thanks.

Lin.

Yeah?

Can you promise me one thing?

What is it?

When you are studying there

don’t fall in love with someone else.

You’re crazy.

What are you saying?

Lin, I’m not joking.

Okay.

I’m leaving.

Okay.

[Though Lin didn't make it into the faculty of Marine Science as she'd hoped,]

[she gets to study natural resources in Songkhla.]



[to be living near the sea that she loves.]

-I’m taking you out for Loy Krathong together, -This is for you, Lin.

just the two of us.

I like your hair like this.

That’s all you that you like?

And I like this too.

The person you like might be the person who’s only in your imagination.

I think I’m well aware of my own feelings.

I like everything that you are.

Do you like me that much?
