Original subtitles

[English subtitles are available]

[Lan Yin Temple]

[My name is Shi Guang.]

[I'm 18 years old.]

[There's nothing special about me,]

[but I have an extraordinary friend.]

[He's quite tall.]

[I have to lift my head just to look at him.]

Fine. I'll get used to it in the future.

[He's older than anyone you know,]

[but he always acts like a kid who refuses to grow up.]

It's been half an hour, brother.

[Our relationship]

[is more than just being inseparable.]

[Shadow exists because of light.]

[He follows me very closely.]

[Every single second.]

I almost treat you as a part of my body.

[Because of him, all my happiness,]

[sadness, madness, affection]

[doubled compared to others.]

[In moments of laughter, victory]

[and rejoicing,]

[he is like a mirror,]

[reflecting the highlights of my life.]

When I turn 40,

I will challenge your position as the God of Go.

[And when I'm sad, defeated,]

[and having self-doubt,]

[he is like the sun, giving me endless energy.]

[I asked him to leave.]

[I begged him, scolded him, threatened him.]

Betrayer.

Without me, you can't even lift up a stone.

[It was all in vain.]

[He wants to follow me until the end of the world.]

[He said God has chosen me for him.]

[If he is right,]

[I thank God from the bottom of my heart.]

Are you back? Come out.

Answer me.

Is there nothing else we can do?

[Our story.]

[Uncrowned King, Go Tournament]

[That time when I felt like I had help sent from above.]

[It all started in that summer many years ago.]

[That's when we started to become inseparable.]

[How could I leave you?]

[Emperor Wu of Liang, Anonymous]

Today seems unusual.

I'm afraid Ge'ze Star is rising.

[Southern and Northern Dynasties Go Handbook]

[Lan Yin Temple]

[Lan Yin Temple]

[Hikaru no Go]

[Fangyuan City Meteorological Agency has issued a high temperature alert.]

[The highest temperature this afternoon]

[is expected to reach 36 Celsius.]

[Please be prepared to prevent heatstroke.]

[To celebrate the handover of Hong Kong,]

[on June 30,]

[all primary and middle schools in the city get a half-day holiday.]

[Please arrange your schedules accordingly.]

[TV stations will broadcast]

[the handover of Hong Kong live.]

[Don't miss the chance]

[to celebrate the grand event together.]

[The song "Pearl of the Orient"]

[describes our expectancy for the return of Hong Kong.]

[Now, there is only one day left before the Chinese government]

[resumes its sovereignty over Hong Kong.]

[Tomorrow, Hong Kong will officially return]

[to the embrace of the great motherland.]

[Our motherland has taken another important step]

[on the road towards peaceful reunification.]

[We believe]

[Hong Kong will grow in the embrace of the motherland.]

[The first round: Comeback]

[New arrival, only one piece]

[The Racing Brothers Let's & Go! Go Seiba's model, new arrival]

Do you want me to reserve it for you?

[Fangyuan City, 1997]

Shi Guang, you're staying out again.

Aren't you out here getting snacks yourself?

I'm responsible for making sure you go home.

[Only one piece]

-Let me borrow it. -What are you doing?

Mister, take the money first

I'll come back for it in the afternoon.

There.

Thank you.

Go back to school first.

Shi Guang.

Why did you follow me?

Give it back to me.

That's my pocket money for this week.

Don't worry, we'll be rich soon.

Wait for me.

This is useless.

Shi Guang.

Let's leave.

If your grandfather comes back,

you'll be dead meat.

Don't worry. He's gone out for dancing.

[Japanese Game of Go]

What exactly are you looking for?

Something valuable.

What happened to you?

Shi Guang.

Shi Guang, are you alright?

Finally I found some good stuff.

What is this?

The board for Five in a Row?

Are you an idiot?

This is a Go board.

It's raining soon.

Let's get out of here now.

Right away.

What's the rush?

Do you think people would buy this?

It's nasty.

Why is it wet?

No, it's not.

It's right here. Can't you see it?

Keep pretending if you like. I'll leave you alone.

It seems new.

You...

Can you see it?

Can you hear my voice?

Jiang Xue Ming, are you hiding?

Where are you? Come out.

This is not funny

I found you.

I found you.

Who are you?

Who can be the true master of Go?

It takes thousands of rounds.

Like an unending trial.

It is a blessing to witness the birth of the true master.

Where are you?

Dear God,

it's been 300 years.

Thank you.

Dear God, thank you

for letting me

return to this world again.

Who exactly are you?

Child,

if you can see the scars of my wound,

please let me stay in the corner of your heart.

Are you a ghost?

Go away.

Don't be scared.

I'm not a ghost,

nor will I harm you.

Then who are you?

My name is Chu Ying.

I am the top Go player of Southern Liang.

I am Chu Ying,

from Jiankang of Southern Liang

I've practised Go since I was a kid.

Later, I served Emperor Wu of Liang in the court

and played Go with the Emperor.

[Here.]

[I lost again.]

[If Your Majesty]

[had placed this piece right here,]

[the whole situation would be a lot different.]

[Interesting.]

[I had never thought of this step.]

[It's been only a few days, and you've come up with new tricks again.]

[Take the golden board and jade pieces]

[that were offered to me few days ago]

[and send them to Master Chu's residence.]

[Thank you, Your Majesty.]

[One more round.]

[Stay in the palace today.]

[Let's play to our hearts' content.]

Emperor Wu loved playing Go.

He'd determine the quality of a person with Go games.

There were 278 people who were qualified

I was the only one who became the instructor.

Even until now, I have no rival.

At that time, I was known

as the greatest Go master in Southern Liang.

He said something weird

and passed out.

Is he going to be alright?

Stop talking

I won't listen

-I won't listen. -Don't move.

I don't want any injection.

You're awake. You should be fine.

It's low blood sugar. Just drink more water.

Are you awake?

Looking for me, are you?

Why are you afraid of me? I told you

I'm not a bad guy.

Ma'am, I beg you. Please take him away.

Please, I beg you.

What are you talking about?

No one else can see me besides you.

But I don't want to see you.

Xiao Guang,

stop acting sick.

Hurry and go back to school

I'm almost late for the afternoon class.

Exactly.

That's right, let's go.

You scared the hell out of me this afternoon.

When I went inside, I saw you lying on the floor.

Luckily your grandfather came back.

You're not afraid of me any more?

What are you looking at?

Jiang Xue Ming, someone has been following us.

There's no one.

Seriously. You can struggle, but it'll get you nowhere

I don't care. I'm going back to class.

Kid, let me tell you.

You just hit the jackpot.

This is a God-given opportunity.

Other people would die for it, do you know that?

So what exactly are you?

I can't explain it offhand

I will tell you in the future.

Forget it

I don't want to know what you are

I just want to know

if you can stop following me.

Just do whatever you want, will you? Please, I'm begging you.

No.

Why not?

You're not the first person I met.

[If it is destiny]

[that led me to all of you,]

[I believe]

[there must be a reason.]

[Child,]

[if you can see the scars of my wound,]

[please let me stay in the corner of your heart.]

[No, aren't you supposed to tell me]

[why I can't ditch you?]

[Don't interrupt. Let me finish.]

[After Xiao Bai Long met me,]

[he also tried hard to make me leave.]

[To no avail.]

[But his ambition was to become the best player,]

[so he gladly gave in.]

[And I got my wish]

[to play Go to my heart's content.]

[Soon,]

[Xiao Bai Long became the top player of his time.]

[Xiao Bai Long spent his entire life]

[searching for the Divine Move with me.]

[Unfortunately,]

[he died young due to illness.]

[So I lost my chance.]

So you'll follow me my entire life?

It's not up to us to decide.

But why me? I'm so unlucky.

Unlucky?

I prefer to think you're a Go prodigy.

The one who will find the Divine Move.

What's the Divine Move?

Divine Move

is the ultimate goal of a Go player.

Isn't it very easy?

Easy?

It's been thousands of years,

but no one has ever achieved

the real Divine Move.

But everyone believes

that it exists.

So if you let me play Go

and fulfil my wish, I will make you

an extremely powerful Go player How about that?

Sorry, my hands are tied.

The number one player of your time. Don't you like it?

First, I don't know how to play Go.

Second, I'm not interested in playing Go.

Third, I don't plan on playing Go in the future.

Shi Guang.

When I realise I can't play Go any more,

sadness would well up inside me.

This emotion will be reflected in your consciousness.

You did it on purpose.

Didn't I just turn you down?

I'm sorry.

Stop crying

I won't play Go even if I die from throwing up.

I want to play Go.

Stop crying.

Li Yu Tong, get ready.

Start.

Okay, pass.

Fang Yu Qi, ready, go.

Okay, pass.

Wang Jia Le.

Start.

-Pass. -You need my help, right?

-Tang Bao, start. -Yes.

Then, do me a favour first.

Sure.

Shi Guang.

Guys, stop laughing.

Next.

-Shi Guang. -Shi Guang.

Do you know what this is?

This is the latest Commando.

The latest Commando.

Xiao Guang, Go is really fun as well.

Leave me alone. Get lost.

Listen to this sound.

Listen.

Make him throw up. Make him throw up.

But I can only make you nauseous.

Aren't you a ghost? Why can't you do anything?

I told you I'm not. That's why I can't do it.

Just get lost, jinx.

Just dump your stupid car already

I'll get a four-wheel drive that's cooler than yours.

Shi Guang, what are you doing?

Look at the others. You're the only one without a team.

Still fooling around.

[Who'd like to answer?]

You really want to join the quiz, right?

You're not only useless,

but also evil.

You saw the teacher coming,

but you didn't tell me.

Now, my four-wheel drive has been confiscated,

and I have to mop the floor in the class.

Sorry.

Don't... Don't apologise any more

I have nothing left to throw up.

[Jiefang Road Primary School Quiz Celebrating the Return of Hong Kong]

[Class Two and Class Five]

[now have 130 points and 140 points respectively.]

[And now, the final question.]

The seven of them always gathered in a bamboo grove while enjoying wine.

we'll turn the tables.

I know the answers.

Now I can finally get a new four-wheel drive.

Aren't I useful?

[Certificate]

I've answered the question, you've won the prize.

So when can we play Go?

I'll think about it.

Think? How long will you take?

I'll use this to get some money first.

You...

Mum, I'm home.

What do you want? I'm cooking.

Take a look at this.

Is there any reward for me?

[Let's & Go! Go Seiba's model, new arrival]

I'll take this. Here.

Kid,

this is the last one.

He bought it.

Do you have it? Do you have it?

Do you have it? Do you have it?

Wait a second

I paid you this afternoon,

you said you'd reserve it for me

I've been reserving it for half a month.

You always said you'd get it tomorrow.

How do I know if you really mean it?

I'll return the seven bucks to you

I don't want it.

Give me Audi Double Diamond.

So you do have money now.

Fine, I'll get it for you.

Mister,

remember to reserve one for me when you have new stuff.

Sure. Take the money and the car.

Just you wait

I'll be better than you at the end of the semester.

Am I right, Chu Ying?

I want to play Go.

Fine.

Fine. I yield, I yield.

Let's find my grandpa.

How's his skill?

He's quite good in this area.

He... He might be on par with you.

He's on par with me?

If that's the case,

then he's the top player of your time

I think so. That's about right.

Can he...

Stop asking.

Otherwise I won't take you there.

You should be able to do primary level maths, right?

It depends on how many rounds of Go I get to play.

You just got here,

and you're bargaining already.

[The handover will be held at Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.]

Kid, it's one dollar each.

It's fine. I have money.

What's written on it?

"Go embodies the heavens."

It is an article about Go written by His Majesty.

Actually, I'm not that interested.

People call you Shi Guang.

So can I call you Xiao Guang?

Suit yourself.

How old are you?

Why do you have so many questions?

How old are you?

Over a thousand years old.

You're quite young.

Why are you making me nauseous again?

Kid, are you alright?

I'm fine.

Finally I can play Go.

Do you love Go that much?

My life is all about Go.

Just like how much I like four-wheel drives?

Maybe.

[Award of Excellence]

[Champion]

It's hot.

A master indeed.

Little boy, you shouldn't drink tea. Stop it.

-Let's play. -It's good.

Alright, let's play.

Tell Grandpa to bring it on.

Grandpa, bring it on.

But if you lose,

you have to buy me a motor.

Sure.

No problem.

You're willing to learn.

That's worthy of reward.

Now,

black should make the first move.

Black makes the first move?

In Qing dynasty, white would start first.

Those rules in Qing dynasty are already outdated.

Xiao Guang, what did you say?

Nothing, Grandpa. I didn't say anything.

Let's start.

Let's start.

It's been 300 years.

God, thank you for your grace.

Now I can...

Xiao Guang, where did you learn to play Go?

Do you even know how to play?

Is... Is it wrong?

Idiot,

how can you place the stone inside the square?

You are an idiot.

Xiao Guang, how...

How could you scold me?

Grandpa, I wasn't scolding you.

Calm down. I wasn't scolding you.

Forget it. I don't want to play any more

I've been waiting for 300 years.

Let's play one round.

You just want to cheat me of my money.

You didn't warn me.

Look. Now Grandpa is angry.

We won't get to play any more.

Xiao Guang is inept

I really want to play with a master like you.

Let's play one round.

You can't play without me.

Grandpa, I'm leaving.

Wait a second, Xiao Guang.

Come, come.

Take this book with you.

Read it and learn properly.

Got it.

Okay. Go home.

[Go for Beginners]

After spending so much time

and two bucks,

all I got is this book

I didn't even get a motor.

How dare you complain?

If you hadn't simply placed it,

I wouldn't have to wait another day

I don't know how to play.

Then I guess you won't be getting

your four-wheel drive.

Fine, fine.

Tomorrow. When I'm off,

I'll take you to play Go.

Don't mess up

I won't mess up.

Right hand.

A word spoken...

Is an arrow let fly.

No.

To make sure nothing goes wrong,

I have to teach you some basic rules about Go.

Save your breath, we'll just...

I'll place the stone at wherever you're pointing.

Done.

Go is not that simple, kid.

-It is. -Open the book.

-Four-wheel drive. -Fine, fine.

You win.

Listen properly.

The Go board is divided into 19 horizontal and 19 vertical lines.

Hence, there are 361 intersections.

There are black and white stones.

Black moves before white.

They take turns to place stones on the intersections.

Once a stone is placed, it cannot be moved.

Lastly...

Lastly.

The player with higher number of intersections wins.

You can't beat me. You can't beat me.

You can't beat me.

Don't you want the motor any more?

Go on. I'm listening.

As to where to place the stone,

I will tell you the coordinates.

Starting from top left,

vertical line 1 to 19,

horizontal line 1 to 19.

For instance, when I say 4, 4,

you have to put it here.

Hold on, hold on.

Let me write it down. I can't remember.

Done.

Look.

There are nine dots on the board.

There's a dot on all four corners.

-They're known as corner stars. -Corner star.

Usually, we call them star points.

There is also a point in the middle of each of the four sides

called a side star.

-So the point in the centre is called... -I know.

Centre star.

Wrong.

Only the centre point is not called a star,

but the Tengen.

Tengen?

Tengen means the beginning of everything.

It has a profound and deep connotation.

Cool. I like the Tengen.

Next time I play,

I'll place the stone here.

But the stone in the centre

is the most difficult to control

and the most complicated.

What is this square box?

Where are there people inside?

This is a television.

Are those people real?

How can they laugh and move?

Does it have anything to do with playing Go?

Ignorant child

I guess you don't know the answer.

I am ignorant?

I'm a primary school student, okay?

You've lived for thousands of years,

but you don't even know what a television is.

What about you? You don't even know the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove.

So what if I don't know?

-So what? -Xiao Guang.

Why didn't you tell me you passed out?

Grandpa called and asked if you're feeling better.

Come.

Have some glucose

I don't want it. I'm fine.

Or we could go to the hospital tomorrow.

Give it back.

What is wrong with you?

I'll drink it later. It's too sweet.

Mum, look at Emperor Kang Xi.

Why does he keep going out?

Enough Stop watching television, Mr Know-it-all.

Do your homework.

Alright, Mum. Goodbye, Mum.

Stop fooling around. Hurry up.

Kang Xi?

Is this Kang Xi?

He doesn't look like him at all.

I even played Go with him.

Among the emperors,

he was pretty skilled.

I'm leaving

I want to keep watching.

Do you want to watch television or play Go tomorrow?

Go, of course.

Grandpa.

Grandpa.

Xiao Guang, what's the matter?

Grandpa, I know how to play now.

-Let's play. -Let's play.

But I'm busy now.

Go play by yourself.

Shi,

I think I finally got the hang of it.

Come dance with me.

Okay, okay. I'm coming.

Xiao Guang, take it.

Go and play. Go and play.

Grandpa is busy today. That's not my fault.

Is there anywhere else we could play Go?

-Do you know of any place? -No.

Exactly. Look.

It's not that I don't want to let you play Go,

I just don't know where to go.

Let's just call it a day.

Don't cry

I just ate a pack of instant noodles.

It's nothing.

But it reminded me of something sad.

What is it?

The weather today reminds me of that fateful day.

There was a heavy downpour that day, too.

What day?

My last day in Southern Liang.

Even now,

I can still remember

every single thing in the palace,

every single word that people said

and every piece of stone on the board.

[It has been a few days]

[since Master Chu was last summoned to the court.]

[I heard]

[the Emperor has been playing Go with Yang Xuan Bao recently.]

[Otherwise,]

[would we have the chance to play with Master Chu?]

[Master Chu.]

[How may I help you?]

[His Majesty summons you to the palace.]

[I shall obey.]

[Yang, as for your game with Chu today,]

[what are your odds of winning?]

[Your Majesty,]

[judging by Master Chu's skill,]

[the odds will be fifty-fifty.]

[Not bad.]

[Get up.]

[Thank you, Your Majesty.]

[Today, both of you will be playing against each other.]

[Go embodies the heavens and the law of the land.]

[Today, you're only playing to learn from each other.]

[You just need to do your best.]

[Don't let me and your fellow officials down.]

-[Yes, Your Majesty.] -[Yes, Your Majesty.]

[Let the game begin.]

[Black stone, 14-14.]

[White stone, 12-14.]

[Nice one.]

Yang Xuan Bao wasn't as skilled as I am.

The beginning went well.

You must've won.

At that time, winning was just a matter of time.

[Master Chu.]

[How could you...]

[What happened?]

[Your Majesty,]

[I might have seen it wrong.]

[I do not have the heart to say it.]

[I dare not say anything.]

[Did you see what happened?]

[Your Majesty, I...]

[I saw Master Chu shift the stone.]

[What did you say?]

[Yang Xuan Bao, is that true?]

[I did see it.]

[I think Master Chu must have been impatient.]

-[It wasn't his...] -[Nonsense.]

[You're the one who did it.]

[How could you slander me?]

-[Guards.] -[Master Chu cheated.]

[Compare the games]

[to see if there's any difference.]

[Yes.]

[Your Majesty,]

[Master Yang was right.]

[How dare he?]

[Such audacity.]

[Chu Ying,]

[I've made it clear.]

[This match is for learning and fun. It's not about winning.]

[How could you do such a disgraceful thing?]

[If you ever insult the game of Go again, I]

[will not let you off easily.]

-[Please understand, I...] -[Master Chu,]

[the Emperor is being merciful.]

[I know you're eager to win,]

[but you mustn't overstep the rules of the game.]

My rage got the better of me

and I lost all sense of rationality

I messed up.

I lost the game

which I was supposed to win.

[Master Yang won.]

[The position of Go Instructor]

[will be handed over to Yang.]

[Chu Ying, you should reflect on yourself.]

[Do not come to the court any more.]

[Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty.]

[Your Majesty, there should be three rounds.]

[He only won... He only won one round.]

[But Yang played virtuously.]

[He didn't cheat like you did.]

[On account of the times we've spent playing Go,]

[I will spare your life.]

[Your Majesty,]

-[it was...] -[Let's go back.]

[Set out.]

[All hail the Emperor.]

Yang Xuan Bao obviously bribed the others

to gang up on you.

I only found out after the fact.

Maybe you always beat the Emperor at Go.

That's why he was upset and wanted to punish you.

Doing one's best in every game

is the greatest respect to one's opponent.

The Emperor wouldn't think like that.

You made the Emperor upset

and you didn't even know it.

You were too clueless.

I bore the accusation of cheating

and was condemned by the people.

I couldn't stand it anymore.

[Who can be the true master of Go?]

[It takes thousands of rounds.]

[Like an unending trial.]

[It is a blessing to witness the birth of the true master.]

As a beam of white light shone upon me,

my consciousness travelled through time.

What happened after that?

I don't know what happened either.

But after that incident,

I was trapped in void.

But my obsession with Go

and my desire for the Divine Move

caused me great loneliness.

I waited in this endless darkness

until I met you and Xiao Bai Long.

But you weren't put into jail,

or banished to the borderland.

Why did you want to kill yourself?

I couldn't play Go in public any more.

What's the point of living?

Could playing Go

be more important than your own life?

You are really stubborn.

It's been over a thousand years and you're still obsessing over Go.

Let's go.

Where to?

We'll find a place where you can play Go.

You were crying just now.

But why didn't I feel nauseous?

Look.

[Board Game Room]

Well played.

Back in Southern Liang,

almost every family had a Go board.

Even the children

were proud to play Go.

Times have changed.

No one would keep such a boring thing at home.

Boring?

A Go board

is just like the structure of the universe.

The black and white stones

are just like Yin and Yang in heaven and earth.

Every Go game

symbolises the laws and interactions between everything in existence.

Even after over a thousand years,

I still can't fully comprehend

its mystery and beauty.

How can people stop exploring it?

[Go]

Chu Ying, look.

[Black and White Go Club, Open for Business]

This looks like the real deal.

Come, let's check it out.

[Black and White Go Club]

Hi, little boy.

Can anyone play Go here?

Of course. Is this your first time here?

It is my first time.

Write down your experience level here.

Experience level?

I don't know it.

-You don't know it? -Yeah

I have never played with anyone.

Then just write down your name.

You have to pay five bucks first.

What? I have to pay to play?

Of course.

This is a private club

I can get a new Tyre with five bucks.

Didn't grandpa just give you money?

Grandpa wasn't usually so generous.

If you ace your exams,

Grandpa will give you more money. Go, go.

Fine.

But you're so young.

Who can I ask to play with you?

We don't even know how good you are.

There's a kid over there

I'll play with him.

Pick someone else.

He is Yu Liang.

This kid...

He's really ignorant.

Let's play Go.

Do you want to be black or white?

Sorry, I'm busy. Find someone else.

Playing alone is boring.

Why not let me play with you?

I'm not done with the manual yet.

I know.

Are you worried that you might lose?

Are you a good player?

I'm very good.

So it's no shame even if you lose.

You're just a kid after all.

Let us start.

You go first.

First move, the small point on top right

4, 17

By the way, I'm really slow. Please bear with me.

Don't worry about it.

Here.

Second,

17, 16

Over here

16, 3

Over here.

Welcome.

Is Mr Xiao Liang here?

I studied our last game

for an entire month

I need his guidance.

He's playing with a primary school kid.

That kid is really ignorant

I know, right?

I guess it'll be over soon

I'll go in and ask Mr Xiao Liang for advice.

Are you finished?

Finished.

Go is so difficult. I'm so tired

I guess I am not cut out for Go.

It's not Go that's difficult,

it's your opponent.

Next time, just listen to me.

Don't leave yet.

There's a children's Go tournament this weekend.

Go check it out if you're interested.

Here you go.

Thanks, aunty

aunty?

I thought you were really something,

but you lost in less than half an hour.

Mr Yu Liang lost the game?

Isn't Go fun?

What's so fun about it?

But winning is really fun.

Did you see that kid's face just now?

But the way he held the stones was much better than yours.

Your gesture was graceless.

It should be like this. Look.

Like... Like this?

Forget it. I'll do whatever's comfortable.

[In 5 hours and 30 minutes,]

[after a hundred years of vicissitudes,]

[Hong Kong will return to the embrace of motherland.]

[This signifies that the people of Hong Kong]

[will now be the real owners]

[of the motherland.]

[The growth of Hong Kong]

-[will now enter...] -โ™ซ River flows into the sea โ™ซ

What day is it today?

Today's a happy day for every Chinese person.

Then I should be happy too.

Of course.

Aren't you happy that you've won?

I am.

That's great.

I pressured him as much as I could,

but he still took control of the game.

But why didn't he strike when he was winning?

Exactly. Just now,

I noticed how he was holding the stones.

He's a total amateur.

How much did he lose by?

Two to three points.

Two points.

No.

His skill is way beyond that.

How is that possible?

Did he go easy in the beginning?

I get it now.

He wasn't playing.

He was testing my moves

and estimating my skills.

It was as if he was standing on a higher ground,

watching the entire game.

He was

guiding me.

That's possible.

But that kid told me

he had never played Go with anyone.

What?

He's never played before? That's impossible.

He's never played with anyone?

[What's your name?]
