Original subtitles

How do they cure a mental illness?

The doctor has to identify the cause of the problem.

When you find out what's wrong,

work through it gradually.

Tell me. Who Maen and Phan really are?

He missed a lot of classes.

You should expel him.

If his knowledge isn't complete, how can he cure people?

I learned this in class today.

What are you doing? Get out of there right now.

Bua, you're a woman.

How could you swim alone with a man?

If someone saw you, they'd gossip and ruin your reputation.

I didn't do anything wrong.

It's the ones who gossip that are at fault.

Are you still arguing?

I don't know how you behave

in your time and era.

You can't do that here.

Mother.

Don't blame Bua.

I was the one who started it. I should take the blame.

Thong-on, you too!

When will you grow up?

You should have got married and have children already.

Please tell me honestly.

Do you have your eyes on any woman?

I'll ask her family to let her marry you.

Maybe marriage will make you grow up.

Mother!

I don't want a wife and child. I'm too lazy to provide for them.

I just want to live with you.

Don't push me away yet, Mother.

Thong-on, you're something else.

How long are you going to cling to me like a baby?

Bua.

What are you going to do?

If you can't go home,

you have to prepare for marriage.

You're a woman. You can't stay single.

Okay. I'll find someone.

What? Did you say that to Madam Phikul?

What should I have told her?

She'd say I was arguing again. That's why I agreed.

Why didn't you tell her

that you liked Doctor Thongthae?

Maybe she'd arrange the marriage for you.

Phad! I never said I liked Thongthae.

I just admire him a little bit.

What are you talking about?

Do you have feelings for someone else?

Thong-on?

Don't talk nonsense!

Don't try to match me with anyone.

Or I won't do this for you.

Do what?

I've been seeing you doing this since yesterday.

It's a mop stick.

Goodness, Bua.

How can I mop a floor with a stick?

Look! I need a piece of cloth.

Show me your knees.

See? Your knees are all rough. It's ugly.

What are you afraid of?

I don't show my knees to anyone.

It's done.

Here.

Do this.

Bua.

Let me try it.

Okay.

It's so easy, Bua.

You're too smart.

Can I keep this stick, please?

I made it for you.

From now on, you don't need to mop the floor. I'll do it.

Thanks.

Take it easy.

Yeah.

Do you want to drown me?

Yes.

Why don't you drown yourself?

Bua!

He's too funny. I can prank him every day.

I think it's biting me.

Stay still. I'll remove it.

Don't move.

It's not here?

Did you fool me?

Thong-on!

(How great is it that we meet?)

(Is this love? Or what is this?)

Are you smiling because you're thinking about me, Bua?

(What makes my heart)

(tremble every day and night?)

(I don't know if it's love...)

Mother, Bua doesn't have many clothes to wear.

Please give these clothes to her.

Don't tell her it's from me.

I saw you dress strangely.

You probably don't have clothes to wear.

I have a lot of unused clothes.

You can wear them.

(Speak what's on your mind.)

(Please assure me with that word. It's all I need.)

Bring it in.

(At least say it from your heart.)

(I don't know if it's love or it's just a dream.)

(You're here with me today.)

(I'm not dreaming, am I?)

(You're here with me today.)

(You're here with me today.)

(I'm not dreaming, am I?)

Poisonous and infectious fevers.

Typhus and typhoid.

Fever with itchy skin rash.

Malignant sore.

Four deadly fevers.

Fever with seizure.

- Influenza. - Fever with a nosebleed.

Seasonal fever.

What does tendon paste do, Yod?

It relieves tendon pain, Master.

What about Mahajak oil, Chom?

It cures gangrenes and relieves pain, Master.

What about medicine that's pressed on muscles, Joed?

That's easy.

It relaxes muscles and tendons, Master.

Where does it come from?

All three types come from King Narai's medical textbook, Master.

About the medicines with great medicinal properties

from King Narai's medical textbook,

what else is there?

Soosaiyat, the 44th formula. It cures various diseases.

When consumed, it gives you strength and makes you eat and sleep well.

Thippakat, the 43rd formula.

It cures insomnia, relieves bleeding and pus, and helps with withdrawals.

Mahajulathip.

It cures hip stiffness and improves your defecation.

Okay. That's enough.

Your development has progressed well.

Therefore, you will take a test today.

A test?

- What test, Thong-on? - I don't know, Joed.

Split into four groups and work together to analyze.

I'll give you some questions.

- Get into groups now! - You come with me.

- Come! - Phoom, come here.

Are we good?

Come in.

That's medicine.

Sorn, you remember what's on the left.

Thong-on, you remember what's on the right.

- What about you? - My memory is no match for you two, but I'll help.

Thong-on.

- Yes, Master. - Lead your friend out here.

Are we going first?

Can we try tasting it?

The masters didn't say we can't taste it.

We can taste it?

Hey, you! Leave some for others to taste.

I'll answer everything myself.

I remember all the medicinal herbs.

Let's go.

Okay. Leave us.

How did it go? What did you see?

- Flowers! - Roots!

- Leaves! - Woods!

Stop!

I didn't ask about the herbs.

My question is about the man who carried the herb tray.

- What is his illness? - What?

I'll ask each group.

Sook's group. What say you?

We don't know, Master.

Don't you even want to try?

At least you should tell me what you saw.

What about Kaew's group?

What did you see?

All we saw was the herbs, Master.

Am and friends. What say you?

Do you have any diagnosis?

You were very confident.

Why didn't you ask that in the first place?

Why would you make us waste time with those herbs?

What is a doctor's duty?

To treat patients, Master.

You had a patient right in front of you.

Did any of you pay him any attention?

Don't blame me.

You should blame yourselves.

The master seems upset. Have you figured it out, Thong-on?

Don't disturb me now.

What say you, Joed?

His hands...

His hands...

His hands

were a man's hands.

Sorn.

I'm sorry, Master.

Thong-on.

You're the only one left.

Please give me some encouragement to keep teaching you.

What say you, Thong-on?

I need time to remember, Master.

Take it easy, Thong-on.

What did you see?

I didn't even look at his face.

All I looked at was his feet when I picked up the herb I dropped.

What did his feet look like?

They were slightly pale.

I have come to an answer.

He has typhus, Master.

Are you sure?

I'm not, Master.

It could be Jariang Phra Samut's syndrome.

When you diagnose an illness,

are you going to keep changing your diagnosis?

Think carefully. What did you see?

I'll give you another chance.

(Jariang Phra Samut's syndrome.)

(Hands and feet are white and pale.)

(Limbs feel considerably heavy.)

(Every flesh hurts. Throat and chest feel tight.)

(Typhus.)

(Hands and feet are cold and pale. The patient has a headache.)

(Fever is fiery high. Patient coughs or vomits blood.)

(The lesions are similar. I didn't see enough.)

I have an answer, Master.

He has typhus.

Yeah, that's right.

- Whoa! Hey! - Whoa! Hey!

- Thong-on! - You're amazing!

Why were you confident with typhus as your answer?

I couldn't judge by his lesions alone.

However, the herbs in his tray

would make green-scented medicine and five-roots medicine when combined.

Those are used to cure typhus, Master.

All right.

This is your homework.

Prepare the ingredients for green-scented medicine.

Make yellow medicinal molds.

Show them to me.

Yellow medicinal molds?

What are they, Thong-on?

Take some starting ingredients.

Write down all the ingredients you need.

The course has been going on for a while. How are the students doing?

Everyone is progressing by varying degrees as their intelligence allows.

Everyone does work hard.

They have good memories

and good knowledge, sir.

The only thing they lack is spirit.

That is not easy to teach.

These things take time.

You're their masters. Your duty is to impart your knowledge.

Whether or not our students succeed

is up to all of us.

Yes, sir.

If I stay any longer, I'll be able to build a traditional Thai house.

Who threw this here?

I meant to throw it away.

Why are you littering like this? Put it in a garbage can, please.

A garbage can?

I don't know. You can keep that.

What's this letter?

I went to the market.

The priest that was preaching gave me that.

I'm not interested.

Priest Bradley?

Is he at the market right now?

I think he is.

What's wrong with you?

What's with her?

Bua.

Thong-on, come with me.

Where are you going?

I just got back from school. I'm hungry.

Let's eat later. Please, come.

Let me eat first.

- You can't. Come here. Quick. - Where are you going?

Hurry up.

Quick, Thong-on. Hurry.

Bua, please walk slowly.

You're too quick. You're making me dizzy.

There he is.

You have been standing in the sun and sweating. Here's some water.

- Please? - Okay.

There he goes. Thong-on, quick!

- What about your grilled bananas? - My grilled bananas!

Bua, what are you doing?

- Be quiet. - Tell me then.

I'm so hungry. I didn't even get to eat my bananas.

Be quiet.

Good afternoon.

Look who's here. The girl who helped me with the kids.

That's me.

How can I help you?

I...

Are you interested in religion?

Yes.

Come. I'll teach you.

- Okay. - Come.

We're done.

Can we go home and eat?

Actually, I want to study medicine.

Can I be your disciple, sir?

Bua, what are you talking about?

Actually, you can be.

But if you're interested in medicine, it could be hard for you at first.

You can choose to be a missionary.

You can be a nun first.

And after that, you can continue with nursing.

If I had to become a nun...

Can I come and study without being a missionary?

Sorry. This place is only for missionaries.

Then, can I come and get some information occasionally?

Of course. Any time you want.

You can come, and you can ask anything you want.

Thank you.

You're a woman, unfit to study medicine,

yet you want to study under a foreign doctor.

Can't I?

If it's you, I think you can.

If it's any other women, that'd be the most bizarre.

I think it's me who's the most bizarre.

Agreed.

It's good he didn't accept you.

Don't let anyone know about this.

Is it that bad?

Believe me.

This is better kept secret.

- One more thing. - What now?

When you take me out somewhere,

please tell me nicely.

Don't just drag me out.

That's not for a human, you know?

Why?

I'm not a cow or a buffalo.

You can't just drag me anywhere.

This is not funny to me.

You're quick to get your hands on people and drag them out.

It's not good. It's not a good look.

Do you understand?

I understand, sir.

Thank you for lecturing me.

The bananas are tough.

I'm anxious about Thong-on.

The masters said he's smart.

Only that he's a slacker. He skips classes.

My brother probably needs to be disciplined more.

Please give him some time.

He will get better.

I fear it will prevent him from graduating.

I'll keep watch on him.

I'm counting on you.

Yes.

Where did the medicine go?

Did you take this out to cure anyone?

I didn't take it, Father.

You didn't.

There's only one who could have.

Thong-on.

Head out now

before Father wakes up.

Thanks a lot, Thongthae.

Thong-on!

- You. - Father.

I overslept. I'll be late.

I need to hurry. I'm off.

Thong-on! You brat!

You're always dodging punishment.

I'll flog your back when you return.

Where are you going, Thongthae?

I'm going to prepare a treatment with Lord Royal Doctor.

That's good.

You have an urgent task, yet you helped your brother escape me.

I asked Thong-on.

A patient was in dire need. He needed that medicine.

You and I were both away,

so Thong-on took it without permission.

You once said

a patient's life is of utmost importance.

So you mean your brother

stole my medicine because of my own teaching?

Thong-on may be a slacker,

but you know him.

You know how merciful he is.

You sure know how to talk.

I know Thong-on is a kind soul,

but he's still studying.

If he bites off more than he can chew, he might make a mistake one day.

A medicine cooker can die of his own medicine.

You don't have to worry, Father.

Thong-on promised me

he wouldn't do anything outside of what he's learned.

I'll be taking care of him.

I need to take my leave now.

I fear he'll bring trouble one day.

(This is your homework.)

(Prepare the ingredients for green-scented medicine.)

(Make yellow medicinal molds.)

(Show them to me.)

What's this?

I'm cooking medicine.

Thai traditional doctors are awesome.

They learn cures, treatments,

and pharmacology to cook their own medicine.

They need to be a nurse and a medical technologist as well.

One person knows and does it all.

I was only studying how to cure, yet my brain nearly exploded.

How much of the textbook have you read?

I don't get most of it.

It's too different from what I learned.

I don't have anyone to teach me as you do.

I'm teaching you what I learned right here.

Look at this.

What's this?

This is medicine brewing.

Medicine brewing?

What's that?

It's a mixing of old and new ingredients.

Soak it with water and leave it to rest.

This is how we make yellow medicinal molds.

What are those yellow molds things you said?

We're producing molds.

Producing molds?

Why do you do that? You're ruining a good ingredient.

We use molds for cooking medicine.

Do you use molds for cooking medicine?

Is that even possible?

It's amazing.

I need to show this to my master tomorrow.

Thong-on.

Why is your medicine of different color?

I couldn't find aromatic ginger.

I used rhubarb instead, Master.

You used rhubarb instead?

Yes.

We spent a long time trying to figure out

if it could be used in place of aromatic ginger.

Even if the result looks usable,

you need to prove that it can really be used.

Sook and Am.

You did it correctly. Yours are perfect.

The rest of you

all failed.

I'll use this to cook the medicine right away.

Not yet.

Even if you did it well,

I still don't trust your medicine.

I sent the patient to Doctor Prueng.

If you don't test my medicine,

how do you know whether it works or not, Master?

We will use your medicine

if only we see how you make it.

I did everything the textbook said.

I didn't go out of the way as Thong-on did.

Please use mine.

I don't trust any of your medicine yet

because all of you are students.

Bua, look at that old man.

What do you think he has?

Whoa! Who can tell just by looking?

It's really difficult.

We need to ask about his symptoms in detail.

Look at the ground.

There's nothing.

There.

He's coughing blood.

He's the one.

Uncle, please let me look.

You have cold hands and feet, but your fever is burning, right?

Yeah. How do you know?

You have typhus.

- Do you want to be cured? - I do.

Thong-on.

Are you testing your medicine on a patient?

You didn't get a pass from your master.

Trust me.

My medicine has been verified by a special master.

What special master are you talking about?

Uncle.

Please tell me your symptoms.

I have a headache, and my body feels stiff everywhere.

I lost my appetite.

I have a skin rash too, see?

There are itchy spots too.

I can't confirm what he has.

I need to test the culture in a lab.

Uncle.

Please take this green-scented medicine.

I'll follow up with you.

Thanks, young man.

A medicine made from molds is used to cure

a disease caused by bacteria?

Using molds

to cure a bacterial disease?

I've never heard of it.

Have you ever heard of penicillin?

Penicillin?

I've never heard that before.

Do you have any medicine made from molds?

Using molds to make medicine?

I've never heard of this either.

So we've been using molds even before the Western world?

What are you talking about?

I don't understand.

Doctor, in the future,

doctors from the Western world will invent medicine using molds.

It's called penicillin. It kills bacteria.

What are you talking about? I don't understand.

What's the future?

I mean the future.

The days ahead that hasn't come yet.

Future?

If it's happening in the future, how do you know?

Because I'm from the future.

Oh my God!

What are you talking about?

You're making me afraid.

I'm sorry.

Phad, where has Bua been lately? She hasn't been here to learn cooking.

Bua?

She does many things in a day, Madam.

She made a mop stick.

She's writing a textbook.

She even talks to herself sometimes.

She made a mop stick?

What is it like?

I was curious, like you.

I'll show you,

but you can't keep it. It's mine.

Pick what you like.

This is all nice and newly made.

Pick what you like.

Everything looks good. Pick one.

Pick what you like. This all looks great.

Pick what you like.

Uncle?

How are you?

Don't you hear my shouting, young man?

I'm totally healed.

You're awesome, Thong-on.

Your medicine works.

I'll tell you what.

Your medicine is really advanced.

The Western world hasn't used it yet.

Really? This medicine was written in ancient texts.

My father has been cooking this for ages.

That's why I told you it was advanced.

Advanced?

I mean, it's ahead of time. It's excellent.

It's great or something.

You said the Western world is going to use it. When is it?

That was during World War II.

That's about 90 years from now, Thong-on.

They will use that to treat soldiers' infected wounds.

World War?

How many casualties will there be?

You don't want to find out. It's sad.

You know what?

If you're going to treat a patient,

take me with you.

I want to find out what else Thai doctors do

that's advanced and ahead of time.

Are you curious?

I'll take you to see it today.

Are you skipping class again?

It's a day off.

Why else would I be here?

Come.

Who did you bring me to?

That blind man is my special master.

Your finger joints and legs are swollen.

That means your Pihakang is the problem.

Your phlegm won't move.

It got stuck.

That makes you swell.

You need medicine to help you urinate and improve your kidney.

Are you here, Thong-on?

I'm here.

Who did you bring with you?

Is he really blind?

Hey! I'm blind, not deaf.

Greetings. My name is Bua.

She's my friend.

Don't just bring anyone here.

Thong-on.

What's wrong with this patient?

I think it's a kidney problem.

He's swelling this much with a kidney problem?

The only way he'll make it is with kidney dialysis.

He won't make it without the machine.

With his condition, he can die anytime.

My master can cure him.

What?

I'll make medicine to relieve the swelling and some for your kidney.

Thong-on. Cook this for me.

Yes, Uncle.

Help me

chop up pineapple core and cogongrass root.

How?

Just chop them into fine slices.

Here.

This is Bavornnaphi. It's for your kidney.

Take it with this swelling relief.

Take it twice a day, in the afternoon and evening.

This is Mahapatsawaphit.

Take it with a urinater.

Take it after breakfast and dinner. It washes your phlegm system.

It helps you urinate.

It will relieve your swelling.

Here.

Take all of this.

Will that work?

They don't have any equipment.

It's like an underground clinic.

I was involved in that.

Oh, dear! Am I going to jail?

Whoa, Bua!

Stop talking to yourself and go to sleep.

Okay. I will.

Uncle!

Where are they all, Thong-on?

The old man is not here.

Could it be?

Thong-on!

Let's see if there's any grave.

Don't panic just yet.

It might not be what you think.

Young man, young girl!

I'm right here.

- Uncle. - The doctor went out to gather herbs.

See? I brought him some bananas.

Thank you.

I've gotten better.

My stomach is flattened.

My feet don't swell anymore.

I can eat and sleep.

I'm going home today.

That's good.

Why are you bowing to me?

Don't. You'll make me die early.

You're the one who cooked the medicine.

I saw it with my own eyes.

You saved my life too.

Right.

Thong-on.

How did your medicine treat his kidney?

The medicine can't repair his kidney,

but it makes him urinate.

It made the patient more comfortable.

He can eat. He has an appetite.

He can sleep.

That's how his condition improves. He can live a long life.

- Let me look at you. - Okay.

They can't transplant a kidney.

They don't have a machine for kidney dialysis,

but he survives.

So this is how they do kidney dialysis in this era.

If it were in my time and the patient lived far from a doctor

and far from a hospital, with no access to the machine,

this could be useful.

Thong-on.

I love you.

(Do you ever think of me?)

(Please answer that for me.)

(Speak what's on your mind.)

(Please assure me with that word. It's all I need.)

(Don't leave my heart waiting. At least say it...)

(783 - Bitter/Astringent /Greasy)

(324 - Greasy/Sour /Sweet)

(734 - Bitter/Greasy/Sweet)

When I was looking at the patient,

what did you say?

What did I say?

I heard you say you love me.

Hey! That's nonsense.

I heard it. Don't deny it.

Oh! I did say it, but I didn't mean it that way.

I mean, I admire your abilities.

How did you get that idea?

Don't be shy.

I was surprised when you said you love me,

but I think

I was super handsome at that exact moment.

Yeah. Whatever floats your boat.

My boat is floating today.

Okay.

When I finish plucking these mimosa leaves,

I'll pick some okra to eat with chili paste.

The man who came to see you often doesn't come anymore?

Whoa! Don't speak of him.

What kind of man is he?

He wears perfume like a lady.

I was just talking about him,

yet I could feel that smell in my nose.

He's such a bother.

Who are you talking about, Phad?

Can I listen too?

I was talking about a dog.

Which dog is bothering you?

I'll chase it away.

No need. Don't bother.

You just need to go home.

I'll really appreciate that.

How can I go

when my heart is right here?

I'll help you pluck the mimosa leaves.

Don't.

You're going to make them rot.

I won't.

I'm gentle. I'll be soft.

- I said no. - I'll help.

I said no!

I'll help.

I said no!

I'll help.

I said no, that means no! Goodness!

A woman hits me.

It means she loves me.

She hits me with vegetables.

That multiplies the love.

He has lost it.

I'll be away for a few days.

I'll be back as soon as I can.

Please take care of it here.

Don't worry, Father.

I'll take care of it here.

I know you can take care of everything for me.

For a doctor,

a patient is of utmost importance.

But it doesn't mean I don't worry about those I leave behind.

I know, Father,

how much you care about your family.

You don't have to worry at all.

I'll do everything in your place.

Let's head out now. We need to catch the big boat.

Phad.

Are you here to help Aunt Phikul cook?

You're the one who's been missing.

She was asking about you.

Hey, don't pound too hard. You're destroying the mortar.

What's wrong?

I'm mad at Sup.

He comes every day. So annoying.

Calm down.

Sup is a gentleman.

Do you prefer Joed?

Don't speak of him!

I like neither. I don't want a husband.

A woman and a man don't always have to be romantic.

You can be friends.

A woman and a man? Be friends?

It's impossible.

It's not. Look at Thong-on and me.

We're friends.

I heard Master Han is back.

I didn't see him. Where did they all go?

Master is preparing for a training tomorrow.

Training for who?

Master Prueng.

You're not kidding, are you?

You're making us practice swordsmanship.

Of course not!

I ask for permission to go home, Master.

- No! Please! - Stay.

We're studying to be doctors.

Why are we training for swordsmanship, Master? I don't get it.

Let me ask you this.

In a time of war,

who will heal soldiers in a camp?

Doctors, Master.

That means a doctor must enter a battlefield.

Is that right?

Yes, Master.

When you're in danger,

what will you do against an enemy if you don't know how to fight?

It's time. Everyone, rise!

Are you going to smack enemies with your stone tablets?

Put them away.

Come here.

Stack them up here and pick a sword.

Hey! Be quick.

Take your stance!

Come back.

Focus.

Use your full strength.

Aim for the head first.

Ready?

Slash!

Pick up your sword.

Take your stance!

Ready?

Slash!

- Up! - Here I go!

- You're wide open! - Mother!

All right. If you can't train with swordsmanship,

just train how to dodge.

Start with the legs. Ready?

Slash!

They're all going to die.

How can they survive at this rate?

They will need a whole company to guard them.

Ah! Oh!

That's not bad.

On a battlefield,

if you fall and don't get up,

you will get stabbed.

On a battlefield,

if you underestimate a downed enemy, he can stab you too.

I saw your swordsmanship,

and I want you to join our troops.

I'll train you well.

Are you interested?

Thank you very much, Master Han.

But let me continue my duty as a doctor.

It's a shame. Your skill is not bad.

Maen.

What's this flower?

It's jasmine.

J-a-s-m-i-n-e.

Are you really not going to speak?

The doctor came for you many times, but you made no progress.

We need to take it slow, Mother.

Maen can make a lot more sounds these days.

She's going to speak soon.

Isn't that right, Maen?

Phol.

Please boil some water. I want to shower in warm water.

Yes, Your Highness.

What's wrong? Do you have a fever?

It's nothing. I just feel a bit feverish.

After I get some sleep tonight, I'll be fine tomorrow.

It happens so often. I'm used to it.

Then please take your shower.

Yes, Mother.

Enough! I can't take it anymore. I took a lot of hits!

My body is all bruised.

What medicine do I use, Sook?

Rub it with paracress in liquor. I think it'll help.

Idiot. You need compression for the bruise. It'll heal faster.

Why would you make it complicated?

Just pick some willow-leaved justicia leaves and crush them.

You can apply that to your bruises.

Here. Take this.

I have Suriyajorn liniment. I made this myself.

You can make that?

Master taught us.

Does any of you try what you have learned?

Thank you, Yod.

- Rub it on me. - Yod is good.

He thinks ahead.

The rest are useless, right?

Brother Thongthae.

I have just copied a new textbook.

Maybe you want to read it.

Thank you so much.

I'll take good care of it.

I'll return it to you after I finish reading it.

Doctor Thongkham!

Doctor Thongkham, are you here?

What is it?

I'm here to fetch Doctor Thongkham.

Is he here, Doctor?

My father is away.

He has a task with Lord Royal Doctor. He will be back in a few days.

- What happened? - It's the prince, Doctor.

The prince has fallen seriously ill.

Thongthae?

What's wrong? Why are your hands shaking?

I can't find the medicine.

I heard the chamberlain's voice.

Has the prince fallen ill?

Yes.

I'm heading out to treat him.

Father is not here. How can you go there alone?

You have never treated him alone.

I need to.

He said it was serious.

It'll be too late if we wait for Father.

Thongthae.

I'll follow you.

The doctors are here, Your Highness.

Doctor Thongkham is not here with you?

My father is away on a task.

I brought Thong-on,

my brother, to help.

Please hurry up and look at him.

Before dawn,

he was feeling cold and shaking.

After dawn,

he was burning up.

I mixed water with some vinegar and gave him a towel bath.

The fever hasn't gone down.

I don't know what to do.

How are you feeling, Your Highness?

My whole body is aching. I have a headache.

I feel very thirsty.

I checked his pulse.

His Pitta element is ill.

He has a high fever.

He has a kind of fever, Your Highness.

What kind of fever then, Doctor?

Why does he suddenly have it?

Where has he been lately, Your Highness?

He hasn't been anywhere.

Except that seven days ago,

the prince went into the woods with his father.

They went out for one night, and they have been fine since.

Seven days until today.

That's the incubation period for jungle fever to start showing symptoms.

This might be jungle fever, Your Highness.

His symptoms suggest so.

It's possible.

Thong-on.

Make Benjalogavichian medicine.

Yes, Brother.

(Benjalogavichian medicine,

(also called the five-roots,)

(contains the roots of five different cool herbs.)

(They are)

(capparis micracantha,)

(harrisonia perforata,)

(tiliacora triandra,)

(tacca leontopetaloides,)

(and cluster fig.)

(Each in equal portion.)

(It removes fever-causing poisons)

(by detoxifying the body through excretion.)

(The prince has a high fever.)

(His body heat rises upward, causing a headache.)

(We need to relieve his fever by giving him medicine on the scalp.)

(It's a mixture of centella asiatica leaves,)

(cassia tree leaves, and tiliacora triandra leaves.)

(The second medicine)

(consists of tinospora cordifolia and andrographis paniculata powder)

(mixed with a duck's egg white.)

(Apply it on his eyelids.)

(It will absorb the heat)

(and relieves the pain in the eye sockets)

(that's caused by fever.)

Thong-on.

Is it ready?

Almost.

Wait for it to reduce a bit more.

How is the prince feeling?

I gave him some medicine.

Lady Tuan is giving him a towel bath.

The prince is weaker than most.

When he gets ill, it's more serious.

I fear the normal medicine won't cut it.

That's right.

We don't have any expert doctors right now.

What should we do?

Doctor!

Doctor! It's bad.

Please hurry and look at the prince.

Let's go.

Please watch over the medicine.

Doctor! What's going on?

Why is he suddenly having an asthma attack again?

Do something! Don't just panic!

Get everything out.

Quick!

What's going on?

Lady Tuan, use a wet cloth to wipe every medicine off his face and head.

The prince has jungle fever?

It's malaria.

Thai medicine might be too slow to activate. I think...

Stop talking!

I don't trust foreigners.

I have no choice.

If I don't do this,

the prince might die before Father returns.

Is this a new medicine formula?

He has never taken this before.

Please let me have a look, Your Highness.

Do you know what the punishment is for tricking royalties?

These two young men committed a crime. They're to be punished.

Don't make exceptions for their families, sir.
