What am I going to do? They are burning someone’s house down.

Burn down what?

Tawi’s forest trespassing house.

Shit! You said no one was in the house.

Shit! You said no one was in the house.When I went in to save him, he was drawing some shit.

When I went in to save him, he was drawing some shit.

When I went in to save him, he was drawing some shit.Hey, are you all right?

Hey, are you all right?

Wake up!

The latest news about the fire at Tawi’s house. Have you heard?

I don’t think it’s just a fire.

I don’t think it’s just a fire.I think they meant to expose Tawi’s forest trespass.

I think they meant to expose Tawi’s forest trespass.

You just lost the race you challenged me.

You wouldn’t have won if I hadn’t gone easy on you.

You decided to go behind me yourself.

You decided to go behind me yourself.Just admit that you lost.

Just admit that you lost.

I lost.

So?

The loser gets this.

You just started it.

Black!

Watch your back.

Hi, White.

You’re home.

Come here, son.

What are these?

Let’s celebrate with a special meal.

Since you just passed the written exam.

You already knew?

But the result will come out tomorrow morning.

My friend called and told me the news.

Sit down and pass me a glass.

Have a seat.

Your glass.

What happened to your hand?

Just a small glass cut.

Does it hurt badly?

No.

Good then.

Come on.

Cheers.

You did great.

Don’t worry about the interview.

You already have a desirable trait.

As long as you don’t cause any trouble, you should be fine.

And there's one important thing you should bear in mind.

I know you graduated from abroad.

You have a broad perspective, which is admirable.

But remember that you’re now in Thailand.

You should try to comprehend the concept of 'seniority.'

Seniors value youngsters who aren't scared to voice their ideas.

But sometimes you can’t speak out about everything you think.

You should be humble and respectful.

That will win the hearts of the elderly.

Do you get it?

I do.

You took the test to become a diplomat.

Your main duty is to take care of your country.

You must first consider the interest of your country.

As for your personal opinion, you should keep it to yourself.

You must find an answer that pleases both parties.

Yes.

I am so proud of you.

One day, you will become a great diplomat.

I believe so.

What are you waiting for?

Let’s eat.

These are your favorites.

More to the left.

A bit left.

And move it down.

Is this okay?

Yes.

You’ve been distant all day.

You’ve been distant all day.What are you thinking?

What are you thinking?

Namo.

Do you think it's possible if you came up to me one day and said

you wanted to quit doing graffiti because it's bad?

Do you believe you'll ever do something like that?

Are you crazy?

No way.

Right?

What made you wonder?

Nothing.

I just feel like Black has changed.

I don’t know how to explain.

It isn’t like him at all.

I don’t know Black that well.

But I think you two should talk it out.

Someone like him doesn’t just talk things out.

If talking isn’t the solution,

try to find some other way to make him express what he feels.

Sean.

Hi, Namo.

Hi, Namo.Hi.

Hi.

Namo, you know street art. Do you know an artist named UNAR?

I do.

Who is he? Is he famous?

Very famous.

His work is about social criticism.

His viral and famous pieces of work were all erased by those snobbish kiss

Do you know him?

I know him but I don’t know who he is.

What do you mean?

The thing is

UNAR is well-known but he’s anonymous.

Nobody knows who he truly is.

His IG account is for sharing his work only.

Someone tried to track his digital footprint

Someone tried to track his digital footprintbut it turned out to be the account of some foreigner who died.

but it turned out to be the account of some foreigner who died.

I think it’s a fake account.

Why did you ask? Do you want to see his work?

It’s okay. I’ve seen them.

Thank you.

Sean. Let’s talk.

Remember the day we burned down Tawi’s house?

There was a guy trapped inside and I helped him out.

I tracked him down. He is this artist.

His work is all about social satire.

I don’t think he works for Tawi.

Then why was he inside Tawi’s house?

Maybe he can’t stand it anymore, just like us.

That’s why he painted this art to dispraise Tawi.

I want him to work with us.

Just don’t ask for trouble.

If he wants to reveal himself,

he won’t hide his identity like this.

It’s not like every one is willing to go combative.

Mom, aren’t you going to work today?

(I’m not taking a day off. I just don’t work there anymore.)

Why not?

(The house owner hired someone else to work.)

Why? You just started working there.

(She didn’t know that I’m mute. And she isn’t okay with that.)

That’s the reason?

She insulted you.

I will report this to the Department of Labour Protection and Welfare.

(It’s my fault. I made her feel uncomfortable.)

I don’t get it. How could you even make her feel uncomfortable?

(She wasn't used to a maid who couldn't talk.)

(She wanted someone who could talk and keep her company.)

If she wanted a friend to talk to, why didn’t she call someone?

You don’t need to work.

I will.

You stay home. I will take care of you.

(I don’t want to stay home and do nothing.)

(I can work like normal people.)

I know you can but there are some people who don’t know that.

They are ready to look down on you once they see you.

(I’m used to it, Yok. That’s why I need to prove I can do it.)

(If you stop me, it means you don’t believe in me either.)

(I will look for a new job tomorrow.)

(My friend told me there was a beverage manufacturer that employs people with disabilities.)

(I might get a permanent job there and stop being anyone’s dependant.)

Whatever makes you feel happy, go ahead.

I’m off to university.

Hey, you.

Hi. You passed the written test too?

I did. You’re here for the interview?

Right. Are you excited?

Not really.

Let’s just say I’m nervous.

And you? Are you worried?

I’m not worried about the interview

I’m more worried about working in the ministry.

I’m not sure if the work culture there fits me.

Wow! You seem really confident that you’ll pass.

You know what?

I never pictured myself as a bureau official.

A diplomat job doesn’t come easy,

so I want to prove I can do it.

How do you prove it?

I’m from a middle-class family.

And there are some rich and privileged kids who always get pleased by

I must fight them with my skills.

It’s the only thing I’ve got.

But I think the test here is good because it’s fair.

We will see who really has skills.

It’s a diplomat position after all.

They need to find someone who’s qualified to represent the nation.

Look at the other side.

It’s not like everyone has a chance to be here.

You know that not everyone in our country has the same educational opportunities.

Number 12, Mr. Savate Pothiyakorn.

Yes.

You can proceed to the interview room.

It’s my turn now.

Pothiyakorn?

Are you related to the ambassador, Mr. Adule Pothiyakorn?

He’s my father.

No wonder why you’re so sure you’d pass.

I bet you really do.

Good luck with the interview.

(Many people become friendly after they learn my family name.)

(He is the first to make me wonder)

(if the privileges I've had my entire life come from exploiting others.)

Hello.

Hello.

Please have a seat.

Are you ready?

White, this is Mr. Vichian.

White is taking a test for a position in The Ministry next week.

I am.

My name is Savate Pothiyakorn.

You don’t need to introduce yourself.

Should we start with the question?

If UNESCO excluded Thailand from being nominated for a world heritage site due to human rights issues within the country,

as a diplomat, how would you explain it to people?

1, 2.

1, 2.

Jab.

1, 2.

1, 2.

Jab. 1, 2.

1, 2.

4 punches.

A straight punch.

Weave.

Jab.1, 2.

Black.

What did you just punch me for, Yok?

You let your guard down. I couldn’t help it.

You let your guard down. I couldn’t help it.Come on.

Come on.

I’m tired. I won’t train you anymore.

Black, you box with him.

Good.

I haven’t fought you in a long time.

Hurry up.

Hold on.

I will fight him.

What the heck?

Stay out of this.

Yok.

Come on.

Start!

I said come in.

I haven’t started yet.

These are for what you did to me yesterday.

Well, let’s box.

Step in.

What are they playing?

No idea. I’m waiting to see it here.

Come on.

Fight me.

Move forward.

Take him to the couch.

You were so harsh on him, Sean.

Go get him some cold compression.

Black.

You’re finished.

It’s my turn to mock you now.

You’re awake?

Sean, find him an ammonia inhalant.

And bandage him.

You do it.

Why would I?

You’re the one that punched him.

Yok, come help me with the mats.

Inhale this. You will get better.

I want this.

It’s mine.

Can’t you just share it?

You should get some bandage.

I’ll do it myself.

Gumpa told me to help you.

You stay still.

Face towards me.

Does it hurt?

Is it better?

Sean, go help Yok store the mats.

I need to talk to Black.

Black, follow me.

Let me see it.

It doesn’t look so bad.

Black that I trained was better than this.

Now you shoot.

Don’t be afriad.

I’m teaching you to protect yourself,

not to harm people.

Legs apart.

If you don’t want to shoot, don’t pull the trigger.

Get your finger off it.

Hold it firmly.

Your hands are very soft.

What did you do to them?

You’ve been worse after the fire.

I’m just tired, nothing else.

Stay here with me at the garage.

Why do I have to stay here?

I will train you to be as good as you once were.

I think I’m okay.

You’re not.

I don’t see the fire in your eyes.

You lack the strength.

Your heart is weakened.

You can fool everyone

but me.

So?

Are you going to stay here or not?

Can I at least think about it?

My name is Gumpa.

I’m the owner of this garage.

I insist on you staying here with me.

And everything will get easier.

Damn it!

Hi, dad.

Where have you been?

Why didn’t you answer my calls?

My phone died.

What do you want to talk to me about?

Don’t you know anything at all?

Know what?

The answer you gave in the interview room.

You made people upset.

Ah! That.

Don’t you feel bad about it at all?

Are you even listening to me?

I am and I don’t think my answer caused any trouble.

Tell me what your answer was.

If UNESCO excluded Thailand from being nominated for a world heritage site due to human rights issues within the country,

as a diplomat, how would you explain it to people?

I said, we must first admit that there are human rights violations happening.

Take the blame and quickly solve the problem.

Then we may re-nominate afterwards.

Otherwise, being a world heritage site means nothing.

You said, we must speak the truth.

That’s not going to work.

You must say Thai principles are in accordance with international norms.

Our justice system is fair for all parties.

But Dad, your answer is devoid of truth.

I can’t say that.

White, listen to me.

We are not judges who can decide who is right or wrong.

Diplomats must put the country’s best interest first.

That’s your duty.

But Dad, in order to contain the best interests of the country,

we must also consider the principle of humanity.

A nation is its people.

You don’t understand.

I get it now.

I failed, didn’t I?

You passed.

What you said was right.

But it was too blunt.

The juries like you though. They think you’re brave.

If you’re some other guy, they would flunk you.

If you’re some other guy, they would flunk you.Some other guy?

Some other guy?

But I’m your son. That’s how I passed.

Other people work so hard to get here.

But you use your connections.

But you use your connections.There are no connections.

There are no connections.

Don’t talk about the ministry like that.

This, the thing you’re doing, is connection.

It’s cheating.

One of the juries is the person you introduced me to over dinner.

Don’t talk about my friend like that.

You’ve gone too far, White.

White, where are you going?

White!

White, come back and talk to me.

White!

You finally came.

Yeah.

Are you in trouble?

I can see it on your face.

It’s fine if you don’t want to talk.

You can vent it out over there.

(Everyone competes, one way or another.)

(No one wants to lose.)

(Because I was born with privileges, I’m closer to the finish line than others.)

(The rules are clearly unfair.)

(I’m angry for not seeing I’ve always been part of the problem.)

Auntie.

Is my order ready?

Yes.

Coming up next. Just a moment.

Thank you.

Dance of the privileges.

At Tawi’s sports stadium?

Don’t follow me

if you want no regrets.

You will sleep in the same room with Sean.

Why do I have to stay here?

Why not?

His room has extra space for you.

It shouldn’t be a problem.

What is it?

Black will share the room with you.

Why is that?

He’s in a bit of trouble.

He will stay here for a month.

What trouble do you have?

It’s okay. I can crash somewhere else.

I own this garage.

I have the right to tell you where to sleep.

But I work here.

And what does he do?

Stop talking, Sean.

Here is your stuff.

No, it’s okay.

No, it’s okay.Just get in.

Just get in.

Just get in.I better sleep somewhere else.

I better sleep somewhere else.

I better sleep somewhere else.It’s my place, my order.

It’s my place, my order.

Get in there.

What?

Are you scared of me?

Why would I be?

Where should I sleep?

Here, on the floor.

t’s your place.

Don’t you even think you will get to stay comfortably.

Why? What are you gonna do to me?

What can I possibly do to you, Black?

Why did you throw my bag down there?

Well, this is my bed, and that is your bed.

Well, this is my bed, and that is your bed.Isn’t that right?

Isn’t that right?

Clear off your stuff. I will sleep right here.

If you want to sleep here, do it yourself.

Where is the bathroom?

Downstairs.

I’m not done yet.

I’m not done yet.I didn’t ask.

I didn’t ask.

Why are you knocking then?

Do you want a towel or not?

Yeah.

How about a thank you?

I also helped you take off your shirt.

Counting favors like a kid.

No towel for you then.

No towel for you then.Sean, give it to me.

Sean, give it to me.

Sean. Sean.

Let go.

What the hell are you playing?

I didn’t realize you’d fall so easily.

I normally fly-kicked you and you could still stand.

Hurry up. I need to go to bed.

Just go to bed.

You will make noise and that will wake me up.

Once I’m awake, it’s hard to go back to sleep.

Make it quick.

You read quite a lot.

Why?

Someone like me doesn’t seem like a reader?

It’s not that. I’m just surprised.

I must work hard.

The more I read, the more I learn.

I don't have a judge for a mother like you.

Don’t bring up her.

She is no longer in my life.

You started off a lot better than me anyways.

Since the day you were born,

you have been ahead of many others.

Especially in a shitty place like this,

I, who have nothing, must work even harder.

(Sean just confirmed that what I’m thinking is right.)

(Fair competitions only result from fair rules.)

(What if the rules aren’t fair?)

(Is it right to break them?)

[Politics, Power, Knowledge]

Hey! What are you doing?

Are you stealing my food?

I’m starving. I haven’t eaten anything all day.

Are you sure this is all you’re doing?

Come here.

I will hold you like this so I know when you sneak away.

I can’t sleep like this.

I can’t sleep like this.That’s your problem, not mine.

That’s your problem, not mine.

It’s tear gas! Watch out!

They don’t care what’s right or wrong.

You will get shot if you act like a sitting duck.

In the next mission,

is there any issue in our society you’d like to address?

I'm curious to see if you can attack Tawi harder than last time.

Fine.

Just wait and see.
