I want to hire you to be my girlfriend.

You are everything opposite to my mother's preference.

My mom will be very upset if she sees you.

Don't you think the lie that gets you through tonight

will cause you a bigger problem in the long run?

What should I do?

The concept of this photo session is your first date.

You have been talking for five days and you really want to meet.

Is your mom that bad?

This is her basic method.

She can do a lot more than that.

Don't think of me so negatively.

I hope that your relationship is real.

If I find out this relationship is just a joke,

I will never let it slide.

If I find you out, don't say I'm mean.

Hello, Pim.

Mom,

why didn't you tell me you were coming?

You don't care about my privacy at all, do you?

It's just a coincidence.

I know Bam is opening a cafe

so I just thought I wanted to try his coffee.

And I missed View, too.

I told Arty to invite you to dinner,

but he never brought you over.

How about we go together today?

I'll have Arty bring you some dessert, Aunt Pim.

I was up since four in the morning to prepare it.

We're usually sold out by ten o'clock.

It's evening now.

I guess there's no more left for me.

We've got loads today, actually.

Alright, Arty, View.

Do your job as a son and future daughter-in-law

and bring your mother the dessert.

Go.

Go grab it.

Go.

Oh, and Aunt Pim...

Where are we going?

Come here.

I thought we're gonna get dessert?

Just come here.

Do you really not know that was our cue to leave?

Really?

That's the plan?

How'd you know?

How could I not know?

Your mother is right there.

If we're all here together, our secret is definitely not safe.

We can't possibly lie our way out.

Run.

Aunt Pim.

Don't take your eyes off them.

Gather whatever evidence you can find to expose them.

Yes, Pim.

Shit. You ever seen Mission Impossible?

Yeah.

Only the trailer.

What do you want me to do?

I'm guessing you're about to be in a car chase scene.

What the hell does she want from me?

Time for the ultimate plan.

What is that?

What do you want me to do?

Do you know anything about this?

How the hell would I?

Is it too late for me to call it quits?

This way, please.

This is a non-smoking room.

Please check out before noon.

This is the ultimate plan?

Once Aunt Pim sees how profound and serious your relationship is,

she will definitely let you go.

Just stay there till tomorrow morning.

Aren't we going to do anything?

What?

We're only fake dating to fool my mother.

Do we have to go that far?

Are you out of your mind?

I mean, are we just going to sit here doing nothing till morning?

I have to go home, you know.

My mother would be worried sick.

I'm sorry I caused you trouble.

But please give me two hours.

I'll pay you for overtime.

Just until Bam makes sure we're really safe.

Then it will be a very long night.

They're literally camping outside.

Do you want to call your mother and

tell her you have something to do with me?

I'll do that.

I'll tell Namwa.

She'll probably understand.

Are you hungry?

Here. Eat something.

I ordered a lot of food.

No, thanks. You eat it.

I'm a vegetarian.

What was that?

I'm a vegetarian.

But you eat sausages.

You were arguing with me so hard that day over them.

Don't run your mouth when you don't know anything.

Sausages are an exception.

I only earth them on really bad days.

Does that mean you were having a really bad day that day?

And I also ran into you.

Who'd have known that?

I hardly know a thing about you.

How about...

rock-paper-scissors?

What for? Are you just competitive?

The winner gets to ask one question about the other.

So we can know more about each other.

Rock-paper-scissors shoot.

- Rock-paper-scissors shoot. - Rock-paper-scissors shoot.

Why did you choose me for this job?

Was there no one else?

I don't know.

It was probably the timing.

I didn't want to hire someone I know.

I didn't want to trouble them.

Well, I'm starting to feel like I'm imposing on you now, though.

Okay, then.

Next.

Rock-paper-scissors shoot.

Why do you have to do this?

Can't you just have a heart-to-heart chat with your mother?

I can't.

My mother isn't exactly the understanding type.

I also don't know what kind of a person she actually is.

That's why I can't make her understand me.

Oh.

Sounds like you aren't close.

I went to boarding school my entire life.

It's just recently that I moved into my mother's house

with my half-brothers.

I shouldn't have asked that.

Now it's sad.

It's alright.

I'm okay.

I'm not mad at her or anything.

I understand her.

I just wish she'd understand me a little.

What about you?

I didn't ask you at all

if... you're okay with this kind of job.

I just think of it as work.

But well...

This is harder than I thought it would be.

And when will this end?

I don't know.

But I'll try my best.

I won't cause you any trouble.

If you're so worried about that,

should we just date for real?

What?

Kidding.

You don't want to actually see anyone seriously?

I don't know.

I do like someone from time to time.

I just never want to get involved or attached.

I can't believe it.

Are you saying you prefer one-night stands?

No.

I just don't want to get hurt.

My mother abandoned me once.

Why should I let anyone else?

I don't want to be abandoned again.

You know what I mean?

This scallop will heal all wounds.

No misery lasts forever, you know.

You just gotta pick the right person.

Why are you mad at me?

I told you I was working, to pay off the debt you created, no less.

It's not like I was playing around.

What work kept you the whole night, View?

Good morning.

Hello.

Don't tell me

you're here to

buy my mother off

in exchange for me never getting anywhere near Arty ever again.

If that were the case, I'd have already taken the money.

I'm here today to give you a chance.

You see...

I bought the publishing company you're illustrating for.

We'll be working together, dear.

We can get to know each other very intimately now, don't you think?

Wish I could borrow that-

You can never get away from me, Hornless Unicorn.

The world out there is big and dangerous, you know.

Just turn into stone and stay here for all eternity.

What are you sitting there for?

Run!

Hey, wake up.

It's morning.

I have to go home.

That was a close call.

Bad dream?

It was the story you told me last night.

I dreamed of that.

I nearly couldn't tell it apart from reality.

Fun, wasn't it?

Thank you.

For...?

Thank you

for helping me out yesterday,

and for saving me in my dream, too.

Will you tell me when you know what happens next in the book?

Of course.

Speaking of which...

The hero of the book kinda reminds me of you.

'Cause he's cute?

Weird.

But it makes me want to root for him.

If it doesn't bother you so much,

stay and root for me, too.

It's such a great opportunity for my novel.

When I first heard Pim was interested in it,

I have to confess that I was really happy.

You have worked in other industries before.

But what makes you interested in buying this publishing company

and the rights to this novel?

Because View is illustrating for this book.

I just used that as an excuse to get close to her.

Now I'll see with my own eyes what this girl really is like.

I just don't trust her at all.

Arty is naive, you know.

I have done a lot of things, now I want to give back to society.

I want to support the smallest unit in society which is the family.

I see that a lot of children love reading

and that this novel is very interesting.

A part of the sale of this book will be donated to support education, too.

She really is such an angel.

What now?

Let's take our plan to the next level.

Don't tell me...

You want me to have a child with View?

Please, man, we need to take this slow.

Dude, you got it wrong.

Right now, Aunt Pim thinks you and View

are young lovers who have a profound connection.

But you shouldn't stop there.

You need to show your mother

that you are totally serious about her.

And?

There will be reporters at the press conference for the book, right?

It's time you go all out.

You're a real devious guy, huh.

Is he your guest?

He's my youngest son.

He's probably here to show me support.

Congratulations.

Good job.

That's my girlfriend.

You're going big, huh?

The opportunity arises,

I can't miss it.

This is View.

She's my girlfriend.

She's also working for this book.

View is the illustrator.

Please support her, too, Mom.

You're a kind and generous angel, after all.

This is like a family business.

You're working together with your son's girlfriend.

It's like a dream family scenario.

Just like what you want to convey in the book, right, Pim?

Yes.

But that's not all.

I have more messages I want to convey through the story.

Like how the experience of someone older may not be all bad.

Grown-ups may understand or see something more clearly than children do.

That is a great mindset, Pim.

Very profound.

Amazing, Pim.

(Transfer to your account: 5000 Baht)

Is this you?

What is this for?

For startling you.

I bet you didn't enjoy what my mother did.

She's invading your work life now.

I don't know what else she's going to do.

I guess she just wants to stay close so she can keep an eye on me.

But it's okay.

I'll still just be doing my job.

It's no big deal.

True.

Then I want it back.

What?

I'm kidding.

Keep it.

Use it for your commute.

The office is far from your place, right?

I thought you had a class to attend.

I'll be going now.

I just wanted to see my girlfriend.

That G word again.

Go, then. You'll be late.

View, come with me.

Come with Mommy.

Sorry?

Work starts now, dear.

We can't waste time.

Let's go.

Now?

Come, come.

What exactly do you want from my son?

Oh, dear.

Welcome to my new project.

Hello, everyone.

Sorry I'm late.

For today's class,

we'll be drawing figures from nature.

Are you ready?

I have a model with me.

Give me a minute.

Here.

Adorable, isn't he?

Stay here.

Wait.

I got him.

Now that's a real model.

He's still now.

Let's draw.

How is he so cute?

How can you be thinking of someone else?

You're my girlfriend.

The taxi I was in got into an accident.

That's why I missed the press conference and was late to this meeting.

Sorry.

This is Sun.

He will be overseeing the art direction and graphic design of this book.

He will be working with you, View.

Yes.

What are we doing here?

I have to skip class to be here, you know.

But this is really important.

I swear I saw with my own eyes that Aunt Pim called Arie.

And Arie looked real suspicious.

(Pim)

So that was how it was.

Is she double crossing me?

She told me she wasn't playing this game.

But then she went ahead and conspired with Mom.

Shit.

This is like Game of Thrones.

But you have an advantage,

which is having me as a friend.

I did some little investigating

and learn that Arie is here to shoot an MV for one of her classes.

On days like this,

don't you think she'd meet up with your mother to hash out their plans?

I bet Aunt Pim had no idea you'd be here.

True.

If I see them together, I can catch them in the act.

We'll know who the real enemy is.

Alright. Let's go.

Arty, wait for me!

In the next chapter of The Hornless Unicorn and a Faceless Maiden,

we're learning that the Faceless Maiden actually has

the ability to stop time for five seconds to solve her problems.

Can I ask you something?

Would five seconds be enough?

Of course.

It's like a magic moment.

Imagine it. Even someone with no magic

wants to solve their problems, right?

How good would it be

for the Faceless Maiden if she could stop time for five seconds?

The interesting part is how we'll express that power in a drawing.

That's great.

Why is everyone in the story gaining powers?

Is it deadset that the so-called villain of the story must lose?

It's just we need to make other characters as powerful as the witch.

You can call it character development.

The witch may not have a lot up her sleeves,

but she's got psychological ruses as her weapon.

But if the heroine really is great,

she will eventually pass these trying tests.

Am I right?

I'll demonstrate such power for you, View.

So you can illustrate it very clearly.

Cut!

You're not taking this seriously.

You need to be more in-sync.

We're doing it again.

Hey.

Arie looks really professional when she's working.

You said you didn't like her.

I'm just complimenting her work. Can't I?

Don't forget I'm dating View.

I mean, fake dating.

Let's try again.

Ready?

Action!

Cut!

That was awful.

This is taking forever.

I'm starting to worried about View.

Calm down.

What the hell are you doing?

The song kinda got to me.

Aren't you easily swayed?

You'll like anything you get your eyes on, won't you?

You're one to talk.

You were talking about View just now.

I think the easily swayed one isn't me.

Actually, every breath you take has been all about View lately.

Move aside. I'll keep an eye on her.

So... what exactly are we to each other?

Lovers, of course.

Stop!

You're not much better than I am, you know that?

We'll be here forever.

What a waste of time.

Everyone, let's take a break.

Arie's food support is here.

Pim sends her a food truck.

Let's go.

Shit.

Mom isn't trying to be subtle, huh.

She never sends me any of those.

We caught them red-handed.

Alright. Let's go.

Egg fried rice with no meat, coming right up.

Sun, you remember I'm a vegetarian?

Of course.

I remember everything.

It's good to see you again, View.

It's good to see you, too.

Working with you really makes it easy for me.

What is there to worry about, though?

You're very good at this anyway.

But... you've known Pim before?

Why do you think so?

It just looks like you two have known each other

or at least have some history.

This is my guess, though.

I'm just wondering why she seems very harsh on you

when it's her first day on the job.

It's nothing, really.

You can talk to me if something's bothering you.

Nothing is.

Don't treat me like we're strangers.

I'm worried about you.

Actually...

I'm dating Arty, Pim's youngest son.

You have a boyfriend?

I thought you were single.

I, for one, certainly am.

I was just thinking...

If you didn't have anyone,

I'd make a move on you.

Why are you grinning like an idiot?

You like View?

I do.

She's cute.

She's so determined.

Take your shot, man.

No way.

We're here to teach them.

It's not appropriate.

I'll just ask for her Instagram.

Maybe we'll meet again some day.

Do you mean it?

Yeah.

Are you alright?

What I really need right now

is the Faceless Maiden's superpower.

Can't I have just five seconds?

Sun, did you know I like you so much?

I was watching and waiting for you.

Why didn't you tell me back then that you liked me, too?

We could have started dating long ago!

You're so cute.

But I'm your boyfriend now.

Show a little respect.

Yeah, it's a shame we lost that opportunity

because I'm dating someone else.

(Come meet me in my office after lunch.)

(You've got a lot to learn.)

Peek-a-boo.

We caught you.

What do you mean?

What are you two doing here?

If you're not in the game,

why did you accept a gift from my mother?

I really can't miss.

I knew something was fishy the first time I saw you at Arty's house.

You may be taken by surprise,

but I've got it all written down

what you did.

I don't want to expose you.

It'd be too cruel that way.

But since we're all here, why not?

Arty, listen to me.

What I'm about to say is the truth.

One, you pretended to run into Arty at the bookstore

to learn about Arty's interests.

So you could make a good first impression.

Go now, Arie.

The timing is just absolutely perfect.

Surprised, huh?

Now, number two.

You feigned indifference and went to the party,

then pretended to be all chill about it.

But that was actually something you planned with Aunt Pim.

I think we should just go all out and throw a big party.

Because even if I pretend to not agree with it,

everyone at the party will know you and Mom want Arty and me to date.

And even if he denies it,

everyone will just take away that we could be a thing.

What a profound plan.

This is something straight out of my own head.

I can't believe you're good at this, too.

Good job, dear.

Number three,

you went to spy on Arty at the library

per Aunt Pim's order who called you in advance.

Am I right?

Arie, baby.

I'm here.

Are you tired?

This is the secret.

What is it?

This is Pim.

My girlfriend.

Plot twist.

The truth is.

Pim and I have been dating for nearly a year.

All my friends like Pim.

But I just... haven't told my mother.

You can imagine what she will say once I do, right?

I get it.

And now you've got me as another problem.

Right.

That just makes it harder to say anything.

It's not just that Mom may not understand,

she may even get angry with me.

What is this? A support group for people with a messed up family?

It would be nice if they just listened to us, huh?

I understand you.

Being a teenager hurts like hell.

Worry about someone else.

I'm sure there are other people out there who have it worse than us.

I didn't hire you just to illustrate the book, View.

You look like you're a hardworking kid.

So I want to give you a chance to try

something you've never done before.

I hope you have no objection to that.

Not at all.

If it's for experience, I'd love to try it.

Good to hear.

Because if you want to date my son,

you naturally have to go through me.

(Here we go. Your mom has me trailing behind her now.)

(I'm busy right now. But don't push yourself.)

(If it comes to it, )

(I can help you sue her for power abuse.)

Go to Accounting.

Ask for all the documents concerning the budget for this book.

Yes, ma'am.

It's done.

It's not.

That was just the first task.

Can you take it?

Your document, Miss.

You need more?

Oh?

Where have you been?

Tired already?

Not at all.

I just thought a five-minute break wouldn't hurt.

What does your mother do for a living, View?

Oh.

She's a stay-at-home mom.

It's me and my sister who are working.

I get it now.

No wonder you need a lot of money.

You have no choice.

The jobs I do are perfectly legal.

I know.

You take on all sorts of jobs

like drawing commissions and...

fake dating.

Just tell me what else you need me to do.

I think there's plenty left on the list.

(Get stuff from the storage room on the top floor.)

You do realize.

I have to select the best girl for my son.

Just know that if someone were to approach him for selfish purposes,

I won't ever let them near him.

Yes.

Excuse me.

(She's messing with me.)

(Everything on that list has nothing to do with me.)

(It's not even my job.)

(It's like she's just trying to win.)

(I'll work something out.)

(What are you doing right now?)

(Grabbing some stuff on the rooftop.)

(I'll pick you up later. Do your best.)

(Hang in there.)

Why the hell is this happening to me?

This is exhausting, boring, and straight up pissing me off.

I fight my demons but the demons keep fighting back!

Ranting's done. Now back to work.

Who am I talking to?

It's me, baby.

"Do not close."

"Door will be locked from the inside."

Mom, where is View?

I wonder.

I want to know where she went, too.

She's just gone for some reason.

Bet she can't keep up with work.

She'll never amount to anything.

You made her work more than usual, though.

Anyone would consider themselves lucky to work with me.

Let's not think of anyone else.

Have dinner with me at home.

You go on ahead.

I'll be there.

Don't be late.

Of course.

Excuse me.

Have you seen View?

Oh, Arty.

You know me?

Of course.

You're View's boyfriend.

I think she's left.

She must be tired.

Poor thing.

Her bag's here.

Where did she go?

Help!

Help!

I'm stuck up here.

Help!

Help!

Anybody there?

View?

View, where are you?

View?

Sir.

Sir.

Yes, Arty?

In this building,

is there a storage room somewhere?

No, sir.

What do I do?

Wait, Arty.

I remember now.

There's one on the rooftop.

View!

View!

What were you going to do?

I was going to climb down.

If I stayed here, I'd have died.

I'm here now.

Don't cry.

I'm sorry.

I put you through this.

Directed by Ekkasit Trakulkasemsuk and Pantip Vibultham.

How could you do that?

How could you leave View up there all alone?

This is my resignation.

I didn't mean for that to happen.

Honestly, View,

why are you putting up with her son?

Why don't you think of someone else?

Someone who really makes you feel at ease.

Why are you taking me here, Mom?

I just want you to see for yourself

that what I've been telling you is true.
