Original subtitles

Your period is irregular. You're sitting on coals.

Why do I feel like I'd become a grilled fish?

Ouch!

What did you feed us, Master?

This is what it feels like to be poisoned.

You want to be a doctor,

but you're afraid of ghosts?

We'll start cutting up the cadaver.

I have nothing to give you, Doctor,

except for these things.

My first payment as a doctor.

It's sweet and delicious.

Medicine cooking is the hardest skill for a doctor.

Few masters have mastered it

to the level that they add new entries to the Book of Royal Medicine.

Goodness!

- Thong-on! - Bua!

I'll go take a shower.

I don't want to be late for school.

I'll go take a shower too.

I don't want to be late for my ward.

Those two children are both strange, my dear.

Sambuddhe Pila, tendons are loose. They touch the bones.

Buddho Ohm, tendons are contracted stiff. I'll melt them soft.

Today,

I'm going to teach you heated foot treatment.

This is a method

from Lan Na in the north.

I need two volunteers.

You will demonstrate to your friends.

Let me, Master. I volunteer.

- Come here. - You're awesome.

Heal it.

Next.

We need one more. Come on!

Come here.

Get up, Phoom.

You won't die. You have back pain, don't you?

Come here.

Do you have back pain? I'll let you go first.

Come lie down. Take off your shirt.

Bend your leg.

I'll show you how to do it.

I'll explain as we go along.

What are you crying about?

Where is Joed?

I'm not doing it.

My pain is gone.

What are you doing back there?

Didn't you say you had back pain?

You're a man, but you're a coward. Gosh.

Why did you even volunteer?

I'll show you.

He has back pain. Why are you stepping on his legs?

Back pain

is caused by air in the hips.

The path of air is obstructed.

He will feel pain in his hips down to his legs.

I'm stepping on the first point to open the gateway for air.

You fellows, watch carefully.

This is the point we open up the air gateway.

Is that too strong?

I feel good, Master.

Press the air gateway point and count to five.

Press along the tendons and release.

Release.

Release.

His blood and air flow

will now go through the veins.

The obstructed blood will now flow to the legs.

It will help open up the veins.

Now his blood around here flows well.

Be quick, Thong-on.

Thong-on! What are you doing?

- Stop! - Hey!

Stop! What's going on?

Why are you two fighting?

It's his face.

- What? - He looks like he wants a fight.

What are you talking about?

You're in the same class, studying together. Don't fight!

You should love each other. That's it! No class for today!

This salt and pepper taste good.

It can be kept for a long time.

Phikul, please put it in containers for me to carry.

Are you going out to gather herbs again?

I'm not.

Soon, I'll have to accompany the anti-rebellion army.

Are you going to battle?

You can't, dear.

If anything happens to you,

how will our kids and I live?

I'm not dead.

Why would you say that? It's bad luck.

I'm worried.

Do you mean those Chinese mafias?

Rumor has it that they're fighting among themselves.

They burned down a sugar barn.

They burned down bridges and caused chaos.

This is infuriating.

They're the ones living on our soil.

Don't say that, Phikul.

Any nations and languages that enter Siam

are all equal under the same dynasty.

There are good Chinese.

They work hard.

They bring wealth to Siam.

The rebellious ones are the minority,

like those Chinese mafias.

It's about themselves as individuals, not as a nation.

Yes, dear.

Apparently, they've been defeated once.

The Ministry of Treasury once sent an army to defeat them

in Sakhon Buri.

Yet there are remnants.

They've been gathering forces in Pad Riew.

They've been so defiant that Lord Indra-asa,

the governor, can't deal with them.

If it's that much of a danger, please don't go.

No one is going to hurt a Royal Doctor, Thieb.

They're rascals.

Do they even know right from wrong?

In a bloodlust,

they don't care about anything.

Don't worry.

The Minister of Treasury is leading the troops himself.

Moreover, the Lord General of the army's force is joining them.

This time, those outlaws will be dealt with once and for all.

Doctor!

Jun.

Lord Royal Doctor has summoned you and Doctor Thongthae.

Thongthae, my son too?

What do they want with my son?

Aunt.

I picked some basil leaves for you.

Bua, who's following you?

- Who? - Right there.

Phad!

Phad! My dear friend.

- Are they lesbians? - I don't know.

Phad, are you back? What about your people?

That's right. Why are you here alone?

Are you the only one who survived?

Everyone is safe and sound.

The battle grows more intense each day.

Master feared I'd be in danger.

He sent me here to wait for them.

You said you'd defeat them.

They fight like bandits.

They like to ambush us.

Master feared I'd be caught as a prisoner.

He told me to flee and come here.

That's good. The battle is very dangerous.

Look at you. Your skin is all tan.

Have you been in the sun all day?

Bua, you're weird.

I went to battle. I didn't go there to make garlands.

It's normal for me to be in the sun.

You don't have to yell at me.

I'm worried about you.

- Thanks! - Phad.

You look like you haven't had a meal.

I'll get you some food.

I can't eat yet.

Master told me to inform Lord General.

They need more doctors.

- I need to go. - Both leaders of the forces are aware.

I'm making supplies for them.

Doctor Thongkham and Doctor Thongthae

went to the Royal Doctor House in the morning.

Thongthae has a child to raise.

He needs to carry on our family's expertise.

Why are you so heartless to send him to battle?

You're wise and intelligent.

Why don't you go yourself?

I was prepared to go by myself.

If Lord Royal Doctor hadn't ordered me to stay

and keep watch on cholera,

I'd have packed up and gone.

I don't need you to chase me out.

I'm not chasing you out.

What about Thong-on?

He was bragging this morning that he knew medicine and he could heal.

Let him go in Thongthae's place.

He just started his course.

He can't possibly treat those seriously wounded from battle.

I know you're worried about your son,

but our homeland is in crisis.

Don't be selfish right now, Thieb.

Please do your best as a doctor.

Use your wisdom.

Use your kindness to wish the patients' health

and safe returns to their homes, my son.

I'll do my best.

Where is my mother?

She's asleep.

I'll bring you snacks when I come home, Thong-in.

I'll be waiting.

- Take care of your nephew. - Yes, Brother.

More like I take care of you.

Leave home before the morning star fade. It's good luck.

Thongthae!

Thongthae!

Wait for me.

- Quick, Phuek. Follow me. - Yes, Madam.

Thongthae.

Wait for me.

Come here, Phuek.

- Yes. - Here, my son.

This is a shirt with a talisman. It'll keep you safe.

It's from Venerable Grandfather Sook Krungsri.

- Take it. - This is an amulet.

This amulet is from Venerable Grandfather Khom from Thong-om Temple.

They said if you wear this,

- you'd be safe from all harm. - Thanks.

This is an inscribed cloth by Shaman In.

An inscribed cloth by Shaman In.

It will make you invincible, my dear.

- And... - This is a tiger's fang.

A tiger's fang.

- That's enough, Mother. - I still have a lot more.

That's enough.

I'd rather have your blessing.

Be safe in your travels, my son.

If you see things going south,

you need to flee.

Don't stay and take a last stand.

Mother, if the doctor is the first to flee,

who'd treat the wounded?

Thong-on.

Are you laughing at me?

I'm not laughing at anyone.

I was preparing medicine. The marijuana powder got in my throat.

Remember this. After my son leaves,

I'll get back to arguing with you.

Go now, son. You should make your journey.

Thongthae, I'll walk with you to the port.

Come.

I'll take my leave.

Okay.

Let's go.

Good luck, Doctor.

Bye-bye.

Hey, Phad!

Hurry up and take your friend back to Pad Riew.

I do want to go home.

When the battle is done,

I'll take her home immediately.

Bua.

I think we should gather some clay.

For what?

Don't sit still at someone's house.

You should make clay cows and buffaloes for their children.

Let's go.

Phad! Make me an entire stable of them!

A stable?

Do you mean the whole family?

- Yes. - Of course!

Yay!

See? That girl!

She's mean. That was sarcasm against me.

Were you talking to me, Madam?

Thongthae, I'll be with you until the boat comes.

Don't worry.

I'll take care of the house while you're gone.

I promise I won't fight with your mother

if she doesn't pick a fight with me first.

Just let her win.

Okay. When you're not here, I will.

Good.

Thongthae.

The boat is coming.

I'll take my leave.

Thongthae!

A black cat?

Stay still. Wait for me here.

Come here.

Thongthae.

The cat passed you by. I brought it back.

It's not bad luck anymore. Don't worry.

Do you know how to reverse bad luck?

I do.

Thank you.

He's gone. If you wanted to see him off, why didn't you follow?

I'm not interested in Doctor Thongthae anymore.

I can tell

he's not interested in me.

He's interested in someone else.

Phad, where are my cows and buffaloes?

How could I forget the Grand Doctor of the house?

Four buffaloes and three cows, is that right?

- Yeah. - We'll make them together!

What are you doing here?

Bua.

You talk to him. Let's go.

Where are you going, Thong-in?

I'm making clay buffaloes.

Let's go.

My nephew never cares about his uncle.

What about you?

What are you doing here?

My brother has left.

If you wanted to see him off, why didn't you follow?

Hey!

Don't hey me.

That's my line.

I said that line just now.

How is that possible? I just said that.

I said that to Phad.

Forget it.

Hey! Get him up. Come and help.

- Help! - Where's that coming from?

- Quick! He's drowning. He'll die! - It's from the other side.

Help! Is anyone here? Help!

Thong-on. What happened?

Please help my son.

Is Doctor Thongkham here?

- Please save my son. - Doctor Thongkham is not here.

He just left.

What's wrong with him?

He drowned. I can't wake him up.

Will he die?

Let me look at him.

Joed?

Joed! My friend.

Joed!

Joed!

How long has he stopped breathing?

What are you doing to my son?

I'm restarting his heart. If we hurry, he might make it.

His brain might not be dead.

Bua!

What are you doing?

Blowing air into his mouth.

You're a woman. How can you kiss him?

I'm saving his life. This is no time for that.

I'll do it.

Just tell me how.

Lift his chin up.

Squeeze his nose.

Blow into his mouth.

Bua, is there anything else you can do?

We need an AED.

If it's good, do it.

We can't. We need a machine.

It exists in my world but not here.

- Joed. - You have to save my son!

You have to save my son. Help him.

Help him. Don't let him die.

Calm down. He's resting in peace now. You should cope.

Do it quickly! Help him now!

Hurry up and save him!

My son!

My son!

You're awake.

You're back to me. Don't go anywhere again.

How are you feeling? Tell me.

Mother.

Please cook some food for him.

I'll fetch the textbook and boil some medicine.

Bua, come with me.

Don't go anywhere. Both of you stay and help me cook.

I'll make spicy mixed vegetable soup for him.

Mother, he said he was cold.

I'll cook some medicine to warm him up.

Why would you make him have both food and medicine?

One is enough.

Spicy mixed vegetable soup is good.

It's filling, and it warms you up.

Bua, come sit here.

- Quick. - Yes.

Pound this.

I'll get some vegetables. I'll be right back.

White pepper, black pepper,

shallot, and fingerroot.

These are all hot medicine.

Spicy mixed vegetable soup will fill you up.

It keeps you warm too.

That's killing two birds with one stone.

What are you doing with the birds?

Never mind. Let's do it.

Give it to me. I'll pound it.

Young man and girl.

Are you two divine doctors?

You revived a dead person.

We're not. I'm just starting out as a student.

I was studying too.

I didn't finish my course.

I haven't taken the NL1 test.

You didn't finish your study,

yet you're this good.

If you did, how good would you be?

What's wrong?

I'm overwhelmed.

Thank you, Aunt.

You made me feel so good. When I was studying,

I did a bad job.

You're a very good, young girl.

I saw it with my own eyes.

If someone in my house gets sick again,

I'll bring them here.

Mother, don't bother them.

We haven't repaid them for the favor today.

You've taken back your necklace, ring, and bracelet.

My son. They won't accept it.

So I took them back.

Why are you so shy? You're my friend, Joed.

You talk as if we're not close.

I'm not Joed.

How can you not be?

Did you lose your mind when you woke up?

Did he lose his memory?

Did you hit your head when you drowned?

I didn't.

Joed. It's me, Thong-on. I'm your friend.

This is Sup, not Joed.

Joed is my son too.

He lives with his father.

We're separated.

We took one child each.

Is that so?

I'm sorry.

I mistook you.

I got scared for a second there.

Thong-on.

Bua.

I owe you two a lot.

Thong-on is also a friend of my twin brother.

From now on, if either of you has any trouble,

please tell me.

I'll take care of everything.

But for now,

can I have another plate, please?

Sure, Joed.

I mean, Sup.

Thank you.

I'm hungry.

Please explain to me.

Pressing the chest and blowing into the mouth.

What is that? What good does it do?

That's called CPR.

It stands for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation.

Again with your weird language.

Cardio means it's related to the heart.

Pulmonary means it's related to the lungs.

A human survives when the heart and lungs function together.

The heart beats thump, thump.

Like this.

When you breathe in, your lungs expand.

When these two organs don't function together,

a human dies.

Resuscitation means saving a life.

I pumped his chest

to restart his heart.

You blew into his mouth to restart his lungs.

What did you say about a machine?

It gives an electrical shock to the heart.

Are you crazy?

Why does that sound so scary?

Are you saving a life or killing one?

How should I explain it?

It's very complicated.

In my world, medicine is highly evolved.

I can explain for three days, and you'll understand nothing.

Just try explaining it.

If you don't, how can you be sure I'll not understand?

You know what?

Try closing your eyes.

Close them.

Imagine this.

In my time,

if someone gets sick or injured,

we go to hospitals.

There are doctors who treat patients.

In emergency cases,

there are rescue vehicles equipped with life-saving technology.

The patient is brought into an emergency room.

Get some gauze for the wounds.

Get O low titer blood.

Blood type match. Get four units of red cells.

Four units of FFP.

Four units of platelets.

Notify a surgeon. We're going to the OR.

Yes.

Doctor, the patient has flatlined.

Get the defib.

Defib, 200 joules. Everyone back off.

Clear!

There's no pulse.

Defib, 200 joules.

Clear!

How is it?

Have you understood more?

Bua.

I want to go to your era.

I want to study the equipment you talked about.

Please take me there, Bua.

Thong-on.

I can't go back myself.

How can I take you there?

I'll just keep telling you about the medical methods from my time.

But right now, help me do the dishes. Here.

Don't.

Sit here, Bua.

I'll do it.

You just keep telling me about more methods.

What should I tell you?

There are a lot of things.

Let me think.

Important life-saving equipment.

Defibrillator.

Hemodialysis.

Or an endoscopic surgery?

Explain each of them in detail.

Hey! It's not easy to explain without the real thing.

Come on. I want to know.

Okay.

Defibrillator...

His body got shocked and bounced up!

His heart restarted.

- Is that so? - Yeah.

Only fools believe that.

If you shock a patient's chest,

it will only burn them.

How can you revive them?

It's electricity. It's different from fire.

Don't tell me

you take a patient in the middle of the rain and wait for lightning.

That's lightning. That's not electricity.

The electricity I talk about comes from a machine.

There are two handles.

You press them against the chest.

When you release the electricity, the body bounces up.

If the patient's not revived, add more electricity. They bounce again.

And again! And again! And they're revived.

That's it.

- Really? - Enough, liar.

Who would believe you?

Even babies won't believe you.

Don't believe me? It's your choice.

Don't even listen then.

I believe you and thank you for saving Sup.

Ever since I got separated from him,

I don't know what he grew up to look like.

You can look in the mirror.

He looks just like you.

- Really? - Yeah.

So he's handsome.

He looks like a cat.

- You mean like me. - Yeah. Like you.

Need any more, Bua?

- That's enough. - Here.

What's wrong?

I'm worried about my fellows.

I don't know how they're doing.

If we lose,

Pad Riew will be overtaken by them.

I studied history.

I never heard about Pad Riew being taken.

We're going to win.

- I confirm. - Huh?

Tontirm?

Contirm? What did you say?

It means I'm sure.

You said you were from the future.

If you never heard Pad Riew got taken,

that means

we'll succeed in defeating them.

That's right. You can relax.

I'm so happy. I'm finally going home.

Don't be sad. I won't go alone.

I'll take you with me.

To the swordsmen school?

Where are you going?

When I...

When I get happy,

my insides activate.

See? My hair is standing up!

I need to go to the field.

If I tell my friends I'm going to the field, will they get it?

Hey, Joed.

My maid said someone was waiting for me. It's you.

Why did you come here?

It's me, Sup.

Sup?

What is it?

Are you not well?

I'm well and healed.

That's why

I brought something for you and Bua.

You saved me.

There's no need.

I went through the trouble of buying these things.

I have beautiful clothes for Bua.

I'll ask Bua to come.

Wait for me here.

Okay.

Why do I have to take a dump now?

Take it easy, boy!

Where should I let it out?

Ouch!

Just get out already.

I can't take it.

I'll do it here.

I haven't taken a dump.

Why does it smell already?

Maybe it's not mine.

Goodness.

Whose is this?

Maybe it's a giant lady who's eaten a rotten dog.

It's disgusting.

Who's there?

How dare you prank someone crapping?

I hope karma gets you.

Bua!

- Bua! - What?

I saw a random man just now.

He was crapping in the field.

I think it's one of the servants here. Who else could it be?

He's not. I took a glance at his face. I don't recognize him.

Then it's someone's guest.

Goodness! Don't tell me he's Doctor Thongkham's guest.

Or Madam Thieb's guest?

Why are you so scared?

That moron!

He said my crap stinks

like a giant lady who's eaten a carcass.

I threw a branch at his head.

Phad! Then what? Did he not smack you?

He didn't see me. I was hiding.

I ran away here.

That's good. Keep this quiet. Don't let anyone else know.

Sup, where have you been?

I told you to wait at the pavilion.

Thong-on.

I needed to crap.

So I went to the field.

Then a random crazy person threw a branch at my head.

It's swollen.

Who'd be there in the field?

A branch broke and fell on you.

You're right.

A branch probably broke and fell on me.

Thong-on.

Who are you talking to?

It's Sup. He brought you something.

Sup. It's you.

How are you? Are you well?

I'm stronger than an elephant.

(This is the guy who bad-mouthed me. It's my karma.)

Thong-on.

Who is this beautiful lady?

Her name is Phad. She lives in my house.

Phad.

You're truly beautiful.

You're carrying lotuses.

Those must be heavy.

Let me carry it to the house for you.

No need.

I have hands. I can carry them myself.

Let's go, Bua.

She's strong.

Thong-on.

Can I come again tomorrow?

Can I come every day?

Calm down, my friend. Calm your nerves.

That's right.

The gift for Bua.

Don't. Leave it with me. I'll give it to her.

This is yours.

Are you mad at Sup? You look tense.

That's the moron who bad-mouthed me.

I threw the branch at him.

Oh, no! Goodness.

That's too bad.

It's a shame he's that guy.

He won't come here often.

I thought you went home.

I just got here.

Did you change your clothes?

I saw you this morning in this uniform. I haven't changed.

Joed?

This is giving me a headache.

What's wrong?

Your twin just left.

Sup?

I saw him the other day. We caught up a lot.

You came to my house. Is there anything urgent?

There is.

I decided to take this course

because I have a clear purpose.

What purpose?

I want to cook an elixir.

Elixir?

Bua, you're here. Come sit with us.

So, I'll tell you both.

The other day,

Sup drowned and almost died.

You two saved him and brought him back to life.

It made me feel confident

that it'd be good if humans didn't get old and live forever.

Why would you want to live forever?

My family is rich.

I can't spend all the money in one lifetime.

I can't even spend it all in three or five lifetimes.

That's why I want to live long,

to spend the money.

What do you think, Bua?

It's impossible. You can't do it.

Even a hundred or two hundred years from now,

no one has been able to make lives immortal. I'll tell you that.

Why do you say so?

I say if we think it's possible, it must be possible.

You two,

will you join me in creating an elixir?

That's it. It's settled.

Medicine cooking

cannot be done outside the formula.

Otherwise, the patient will be at great risk.

Try asking Master Chit. Maybe he knows.

He's a medicine expert.

- Really? - Yeah.

Master Chit, I have a question.

What is it? What do you wonder?

Hey, Thong-on! Come.

Do you know a formula of an elixir?

Why are you asking me all of a sudden?

I'm just asking.

Your family has been medicine cookers for generations.

I think you have a formula for divine medicine.

Do you have it, Master?

The formula for my family's elixir

has been passed down since the Ayutthaya period.

I don't know what dynasty it belongs to.

So it exists.

Have you tried cooking it, Master?

- I haven't. - Oh.

Why?

If you have a medicine that good, it saves lives from dying.

Humans must die when their time comes.

If it's time for them to die and we prevent their death,

that's not saving.

If we have an elixir,

the time for death won't come.

Please, Master. Tell me about it.

- Please, Master. I'll do anything. - Okay.

If you want to know,

I'll tell you.

Really?

Let's go.

- Get it up there! - Doctor.

We have more doctors now.

Go. Get him upstairs.

Doctor Thongthae, we meet again.

Uncle Thoem. How's the situation here?

We've got wounded men non-stop.

Please take a look inside, Doctor.

- Let's go. - Let's go.

Doctor!

- Be gentle! - Here, Doctor.

Another one is here, Doctor. His leg

- got slashed. - Sit down.

- Oh! - It hurts.

Let me go. I'll slash their heads clean off.

You can't go in your condition.

Your leg is almost cut off!

Take it easy.

Uncle, get me some medicine paste.

Okay. I will.

Doctor.

We only have a little left. Will this be enough?

Take a clean cloth and soak it in paracress in liquor.

Wipe the wound clean.

I'll gather more herbs.

Okay. This is what I'm good at. It's better than fighting.

Doctor.

Take my sword. You might run into some Chinese mafias.

Okay.

Here. Does it hurt?

- It doesn't. - It doesn't?

It doesn't?

- It does! It hurts! - It hurts now?

Help me.

Save my life.

Save my life.

- Your wound. - Are you pranking me?

- I am. - I'm here.

- Wash these for me. - Okay.

How are you? Are you alright?

I am. Just a scratch won't kill me.

Lie down and get some rest.

Take it easy.

Doctor.

You just got back. Where are you going again?

I'll gather more herbs.

Don't scream.

Thank you.

Don't speak.

Stay here. Don't make a noise. Understand?

Can you figure it out now, Thong-on?

No. What about you?

You can't. How can I?

There's the moron!

Bua, let's leave.

- Quickly. - It's okay. Act normal.

Hi, beautiful lady.

You're even more beautiful than yesterday.

Don't praise me. I won't fall for you.

Who praised you?

I was praising the beautiful Bua.

This is Joed, not Sup.

I'm Joed.

There are two of them?

One is bad enough. Now there are two?

Have you figured it out?

No, Joed.

What's wrong with you two?

Did your master punish you?

We asked him for the formula of his elixir.

He told us the formula.

That's good. What are in there? Tell me.

Firstly, the ingredients, "smell the air,"

"on top of trees,"

"feel the ground,"

"escape the cycle,"

"nirvana with no return,"

- and... - Wait.

Are those herbs' names?

They're codenames. The master said it's his family's formula.

His ancestors named them in riddles

so that the formula stays within the family.

Time passes by, and they have forgotten it.

Our master himself doesn't know what they are.

Even if he knows the formula, he can't cook it.

If you can't, don't. When the time comes, we must die.

Why would you live forever? Weirdo.

Well, if you love someone,

you want to stay with them

until the end of time itself.

Right, Thong-on?

Leave Bua alone. Stop it, Joed.

What's wrong with you?

What are you looking at?

I've never loved anyone.

I don't want to stay with anyone for long.

They bore me to death.

Father.

Do you know what any of them are?

His own family doesn't know it. How can I?

Please try to figure it out.

You might solve the riddle.

"Smell the air."

I think it's something up in the air.

"On top of trees."

It should be literal.

"Feel the ground" is probably some kind of root.

And "escape the cycle,"

"nirvana with no return."

I really have no idea.

All I can do is cook food.

I don't know about medicine.

Herbs and vegetables are all plants.

You should be able to help me figure it out.

Please try and think.

What's in the air? Birds and bugs.

Raindrops are possible too.

What's on top of trees?

There are many things.

Vines are possible.

What's in the ground?

Other than the roots your father said,

some bugs are on the ground.

Goodness. I can never guess.

Stop thinking about it. Come here.

Help me cook.

Thong-on.

What kind of long life do you want?

You will get old, get sick, and die.

Just think about when you're alive.

If you can enjoy food, sleep, and defecate well,

that's extremely lucky to me.

You're right.

That's right.

Doctor.

How is the situation here?

It's still manageable.

Few soldiers are seriously wounded.

Those lightly wounded,

I sent them home to recover, sir.

Tell me if you need anything.

I'll tell my men to provide it.

Thank you.

- Uncle Thoem. - Yes.

Please feed the medicine to the rest of them.

- Okay. I will. - I need to go out and do something.

Okay. Leave it to me.

Uncle.

Where's the doctor going?

What does it have to do with you?

Can't he go take a dump or piss?

I don't want to be nosy,

but he took a cup of medicine with him.

Maybe it's for a patient inside.

You're always nosy about everything.

This medicine will reduce swelling.

Take it.

Phuek.

All I can do is pray

and pray to Buddha.

And pray every single day. It makes me tired.

My mind can never be at peace.

Yes, Madam.

You're lucky.

You're single.

You don't have to suffer as I do.

If I could choose, I would like to suffer.

Why?

Why would you want to suffer?

Do you want to understand how I feel?

If I suffer, that means I have a husband.

Doctor.

Be careful when you walk around in these woods.

Apparently, members of the Chinese mafia got lost in the woods here.

Thank you.

I'm on my way back.

Doctor Thongthae.

What were you doing in the woods?

Answer me.

I

went to gather herbs, sir.

To gather herbs,

yet you didn't take any trays or baskets?

I didn't need much.

I was going to carry them in a piece of cloth.

I'm sorry that I, during wartime,

was acting suspiciously.

I'll be more careful from now on.

If you'll excuse me, I'll cook more medicine.

Wait!

Bring him in.

Do you know this enemy of ours?

I don't know him.

I've never seen him.

The medicine you use

and the clothes covering your wounds

are the same as what we're using.

Someone in here

is helping you in secret.

Doctor Thongthae.

If you still deny it

and no one in this camp admits to it,

I'll punish every one of you!

It's me, sir.

It was me who treated the enemy.

Doctor Thongthae treated an enemy?

Did you side with the outlaws?

No, sir.

I take the side of mercy.

Rich or poor,

friend or foe,

every life is worth the same.

I was born into a family of doctors.

My duty is to save lives.

I cannot destroy any life, sir.

This man is a rebel.

He smuggled opium.

He's a pirate.

He killed countless people.

His gang even slaughtered a governor in his own house.

This is a grave offense,

punishable only by death!

I am a doctor.

I can only diagnose what's wrong with a patient

and how to cure them.

I cannot decide who are rebels,

or are not rebels,

deserve to die, or do not deserve to die.

Do you know,

as someone who helps the enemy,

what your punishment will be?

Whatever punishment that is,

I will accept it

without any regret.

I have fulfilled my duty as a doctor to the best of my abilities.

Even if the life I saved

brings about my own demise,

I shall not fear.

It's good to be you, Thong-on.

You don't have any responsibilities.

- Maen! - What's going on, my prince?

Maen can speak, Mother.

How do they cure a mental illness?

The doctor has to identify the cause of the problem.

I learned this in class today.

Hey!
