Dan!

Dan?

What's wrong? You were swimming normally just now.

I just...

I just saw Trin.

What?

- Hey, where are you going? - Dan?

Dan?

Brother,

can you tell me the truth about Trin?

The truth?

What truth?

I think he's dead.

He really had a hand in making the shadow stronger.

I think it's related.

We're talking based on reality here,

not feelings.

Perhaps he wants to tell us something.

He might've been hurt

by the murderer who's hiding at this school.

But I'm sure there's no murderer here

and that Trin is still alive.

Are you saying I'm lying then?

Maybe you should let go of your fixation on the teachings.

It might be preventing you from finding out more.

Dan, it has nothing to do with the teachings.

But shouldn't what happened to Trin finally come to light?

I'll find it out myself

if you don't give me a straight answer.

Come on over, everyone!

Number One, the St. Lawrence Advancement Party.

I'm Trin Dhevawijitra.

If you'd like to see things at the school change,

please vote for me.

We will put a stop to oppression at this school

because we're going to abolish hazing!

Whoa.

All lives in this school are equal.

Isn't that right, everyone?

Yes!

- Isn't that right? - Yes!

- Isn't that right? - Yes!

Don't forget to vote for me, Number One.

Trin Dhevawijitra,

the St. Lawrence Advancement Party.

We advance and promote equality.

Number One!

Number One!

Number One!

Number One! Can I hear you?!

- Number One! - Number One!

- Number One! - Number One!

- Number One! - Number One!

Trin.

What?

Master Surat wants to see you in the Disciplinary Office.

- Number One! - Number One!

I'll be right back.

Don't forget to vote for Number One!

I disagree with your party's policies.

And this shouldn't have happened in the first place.

(St. Lawrence Advancement Party)

But personally, I believe

the hazing system isn't necessary for the students.

If we're prisoners, then it's a different story.

Watch your mouth!

You know this system's existed at our school for a long time.

It's thanks to this system that our honorable alumni

have become quality workers in society!

They were shaped by oppression?

Trin, I called you here to be reprimanded!

Do not talk back!

Yes, sir.

Anyway,

I order you to change all of your policies.

And remove all of the pamphlets and posters, understand?

Thank you to everyone who voted for me.

Your votes will not go to waste.

Students like us

have to use cesspool latrines

while the teachers use comfortable toilets.

- Isn't that right, everyone? - Yes!

- Isn't that right? - Yes!

In order to achieve the equality we deserve,

I'm going to build the "Dhevawijitra Bathroom".

- Do you agree? - Yes!

- Do you agree? - Yes!

- No cesspool latrines! - No cesspool latrines!

- No cesspool latrines! - No cesspool latrines!

Come on!

- No cesspool latrines! - No cesspool latrines!

What are you all doing?

Don't you have a class to go to?

Get back to your classroom now!

Ten.

Nine.

Eight.

Seven.

Six.

Five.

Four.

Three.

Two.

One.

If you want to call me over to have a word,

there's no need to send my friends away, sir.

I don't think Trin is suitable to be the student body president.

He only causes trouble

and wants to change the long-standing school rules.

He's also arrogant enough to plan to build a bathroom in his name.

But my friends voted for me.

And since I got so many votes,

it means

many of them dislike the existing rules.

Trin!

Master Surat,

I think you should calm down.

We'll be able to reach a compromise with the students.

Besides, the votes for Trin were unanimous.

Many people accept the result.

- But his policies are... - I'll have a word with him.

I know these things can't be easily changed.

But we also have to respect reality.

Then please handle this, Brother Anurak.

Excuse me.

What are you going to do with me now?

Are you going to expel me?

Or have me suspended?

I'd like to hear your opinions, Trin.

And I'd like you

to hear mine as well.

I'm just following the policies

I promised my voters.

What's wrong with what I'm doing?

But you're trying to change a long-standing tradition.

If the tradition was good,

then why would people want to change it?

Trin,

do you think building a new bathroom is

really the right way forward?

Have you ever thought about

who's going to maintain it once it's built?

Who's going to clean it?

There will be additional expenses

and maintenance costs.

You're going to build it with the executives' hands tied.

It's no different from the hazing system.

Is that all?

I'm going to let you go this time.

But if something like this happens again,

I'm going to have to call your father over.

Yes, sir.

- Hello, Officer. - Hello, Brother Anurak.

I'm calling to inform you about our leads on Trin.

I see.

He was using narcotics while being treated for bipolar disorder.

Hello, everyone.

Welcome to St. Lawrence's Drama Club.

This is the first day of rehearsal.

I'd like to introduce you to the club president, Wanlop.

Feel free to ask him any questions you might have.

We also have Khim.

She'll be handling our finances.

You can discuss reimbursements with her.

But you can't get reimbursed for snacks at the Co-op like Chat.

Don't do that again, Chat.

Okay, sir. Loud and clear.

All right.

We only have two months to rehearse

after years of waiting.

I'd like everyone to do their best.

You can get to work now.

What is it?

A pig's head?

Is it a mask?

It looks difficult to put on.

Hey.

Master Joe?

Master?

Are you okay?

Uh... I'm fine.

I'm happy you're part of the Drama Club.

Thank you.

The role of Hamlet is in your hands now, Dan.

Master Joe, can you come and take a look at this?

Excuse me.

The Drama Club's made a comeback.

Do you think Master Joe misses Trin?

Hm...

He might've already forgotten about him.

Forgotten? Don't you know how close they were?

Speaking of Trin,

did you see his pig mask?

I guess it's disappeared with him.

Don't say that, jerk. You're giving me goosebumps.

Here's your script.

Rehearse your lines.

The role's mine if you make a mistake.

That's rich coming from you.

You weren't cast, yet you showed up anyway.

Hey, my position has a name, you know?

What?

It's "Photographer and General Assistant".

What do you think?

More like "General Servant".

I should whack you in the head.

Do you want to rehearse?

Okay.

- We're going now. - Okay.

I don't think you have to rehearse anymore.

I saw you during the audition.

You were so believable.

I don't think so.

There are still things I don't understand.

Well...

Do you want to see if there's any common ground

between you and Hamlet that you find relatable?

Such as?

Like, your background

or the things you like.

There should be some similarities.

Like what?

A dead father.

Oh.

Well...

I'm sorry about your dad.

Mm. Thanks.

Even though my dad's still alive,

I can sympathize with how sad it would be.

Your pep talk sounds weird.

I know, right?

I don't know how to help you.

Let's change the subject.

Oh.

What kind of backdrop do you have to work on?

Oh, I haven't started.

I'm working on the poster for the time being.

I just came up with a sketch.

Here.

(HAMLET)

There's one in here too.

This.

- Did you draw that? - Yes.

All right, everyone.

Let's call it a day.

We'll update each other next time.

Thank you very much for today. You can go home now.

Hey, I have to go.

Let's go, Nai.

Nai?

Nai?

Are you okay?

I called you many times.

I saw something following Master Joe.

Let's find out.

Hurry!

Nai!

I'm okay. Let's keep following him.

Nai,

that's enough.

You don't have to look anymore.

You might get hurt again.

I'm sorry.

Why are you apologizing?

I know you want to help.

But I understand your feelings as well.

I'm starting to feel guilty

hearing you say that.

I mean it.

I'll handle Trin myself.

Don't overexert yourself, understand?

Just help me with what you can.

Do you feel any better?

Yes, I do now.

Let's get back to the dorm, or we'll miss curfew again.

Come on.

Hey, fruitcakes!

What are you two doing at the infirmary?

I guess the vibe helps them get in the mood.

How long before you shut up?

- Hey! - Don't touch him.

I'm the one you have a problem with.

Take it out on me if you're angry.

Whoa. That's so sickening.

I think I'm going to puke.

Let's go, Jack, Doe.

Watch your back, both of you.

How long are they going to keep bullying you?

Let's go.

Who did it to you?

Hi.

After having followed you guys' stories for a while,

it's my turn now.

And the story is...

Get away from me, fruitcake!

Nai's a fruitcake!

I don't think a relationship

between me and him is possible.

So all I can do is

express my feelings through words.

(I hope your wish comes true.)

(TK4020 - Just say you like him. He can't read your thoughts.)

That's bad.

But I'm jealous of you

for not having to keep secrets to yourself.

I don't understand.

Why do I have to go through these horrible things?

Even though my feelings are pure.

You were right.

It's good you told him.

Trust me.

At least it's better to let it out.

If you didn't tell him you like him,

you wouldn't know how he feels about you.

But now you know

he doesn't reciprocate your feelings.

Another good thing that comes out of it is

you got to know his true colors.

Hang on.

Are you

"TK4020"?

You're a know-it-all.

What are you going to do now?

Are you going to keep spending your life alone?

Oh?

Do you want

to transfer to Drama Club instead?

At least I can be your friend.

I don't think so.

I don't want to put myself at the center of attention again.

I should keep to myself.

Your call.

But you can tell me

if there's a problem.

I'm happy to help.

Gee.

You look pale.

Why?

Are you worried the politician's kid is going to spy on us?

Trin?

He's dead.

How can he nose into our business now?

Are you really that confident?

But we got lucky that day

when you dealt with him like that.

He probably held such a strong grudge against you.

He deserved it.

I'm not afraid of him,

even if he's a ghost now.

Shh.

Stop worrying about the dead.

Right now,

you should worry about the living instead.

Hurry up and do whatever.

I'll get in trouble again if you get caught.

Okay.

Thank you, Uncle Rerng.

Wait.

- Hey. - Do you have a crush on Cha-aim?

So?

What is it?

Yes.

But I don't want it to be just a crush.

Then just tell her.

Are you crazy?

I need to be strategic about it.

Besides, I'm worried

my methods of making a move on her might not work.

I don't know.

I think there's a better chance

if you tell her first.

You've got a point.

It's our day off. Why did you call me here, Nai?

Well, I...

If you keep dragging your heels, I'll send you back to the dorm.

Hurry up and get it done.

Surat will tell us off if we get back late again. Come on.

And why did you go there alone?

There'd be trouble if you got caught.

Right? Why did you risk yourself like that?

But Anan is so daring.

But what's more

is that I heard those two talking about Trin.

Do you mean

Anan has something to do with Trin's disappearance?

That's why I want to look into it

in case I can find any traces from Trin's account.

Here it is! I found something!

"Ever since I came to be,"

"no one's ever fulfill what I've missed"

"until I met J."

"You're the only person who made me want to overcome the thorny wall."

"Even though the thorns might prick me along the way,"

"I promise I'll climb over it to you."

"I want to be normal as a way to thank you"

"for giving me what I never thought of receiving."

"And that is a beautiful feeling."

"I thank you from the heart."

What's he on about? I don't understand.

And what kind of wall is thorny?

Was he a military cadet or something?

Josh,

shut your yap if you don't know anything.

And who's this "J"?

"J"?

Jim? Jiab? Jarb? Joob?

- Joe! - Joe!

It's nothing new though.

Everyone knew Trin liked Master Joe.

He said so as well in the letter.

What letter?

Last year,

someone photocopied Trin's letter and put it up around the school.

After that,

Trin started to change.

How so?

He wrote a love letter to a teacher. People obviously shunned him.

And who photocopied it?

Did they want to hurt Trin?

The case of MP Trairat Dhevawijitra's son

has been reopened

after a lead from the hospital where Trin Dhevawijitra received

treatment for bipolar disorder.

It seems that Trin stopped taking his medication of his own accord,

causing him to hallucinate.

And according to a witness's testimony,

it has also been discovered that he'd been using narcotics.

The police now think

it might have been the cause of his death.

But in any case, his body's never been found.

This case remains a mystery...

How could you let this information get leaked to the media?

I... I don't know, sir.

There must've been a mistake during the document transfer.

But I've already emphasized it to you.

If things get even more out of hand, will you take responsibility?

Brother!

- Where's Brother Anurak? - You can't go in!

- Where's Brother Anurak? - You can't go in there!

I demand to see him now!

I'm going to take this to court

if he refuses to take responsibility!

Mr. and Mrs. Dhevawijitra,

I'd like to invite you inside.

Here you are, Mr. Dhevawijitra.

You leaked the news my son was a drug addict, didn't you?

I can confirm the news didn't come from me.

How could that be?

That's right.

It's already come to this.

A student's been missing at your school for almost a year,

yet you still don't know anything.

And now you're accusing my son of committing suicide as well?

I never thought of blaming my student.

But for Trin's disappearance,

it's possible

he might've hallucinated and gone missing.

The police found evidence

from when he was getting treated for his injury last year.

Trin had been smoking marijuana before his disappearance.

But it's still all just speculation from the police.

I refuse to believe it

until we can find his body.

Trin!

Trin, my son!

Trin!

Do you think it's true about Trin?

Probably. It's all over the news.

- Josh... - Oh, you three.

How come you're still not in the cafeteria?

The Master on duty might tell you off.

Then can you cover for us, sir?

Tell him we were working for you.

Really.

Come on. Follow me.

You're awesome, sir.

I'll help you clean up the Drama Club for free.

- You're on your own. - Oh?

Aren't you going anywhere this weekend?

- Oh, we went to the library... - Well,

we have a lot of homework.

Then there's the play rehearsal too.

That's true.

Did you hear the news about Trin, sir?

Of course.

Do you really believe

he died from the side effects of narcotics?

Isn't that what we should believe the most at this moment?

There's proof of what happened to Trin.

I think it's best if we believe it.

Do you think it's Master Joe who leaked the letter?

I don't think so.

How was my performance?

You seem to be worried about the lines and blocking.

But if you stay in the moment,

it'll appear more natural.

I'll try harder.

You don't have to try.

Just be the character

and stay in the moment.

You can do it.

Master Joe,

thank you so much.

I haven't done something this fun for a while now.

Every time I'm in a play,

I forget the outside world.

I forget

I have to take this stupid medication.

When I play the role of someone else,

it also helps me forget the fact that I'm sick.

Indeed.

Sometimes, when we play the role of a character,

it helps you get to know yourself better.

That's true.

Master Joe,

when my bipolar symptoms

get out of control,

I have to stay alone

so I won't cause trouble to other people.

Every time I take the medication to subdue the symptoms,

it always serves as a reminder

I'm abnormal,

weak,

and different from the rest.

You're not weak, Trin.

You're actually accepting it and fighting against it.

I don't want to be sick anymore.

I think

my life would be better if I didn't have to take medication.

I'm not a doctor, so I can't tell you to stop your medication.

But if acting makes you feel happy,

then I'd like you to keep doing it.

Drama Club

and you

really make me happier.

Sir,

thank you so much.

Please keep this pen for me for the time being.

Once I'm cured from this stupid disorder,

I'll come back for it

with an answer for you.

I'm sorry, Trin.

But I really can't accept it.

Neither now

nor in the future.

But I appreciate it.

And I hope you'll feel better.

Trin Dhevawijitra's treatment log, September 15, 1998.

During our last conversation, you mentioned seeing

strange and horrifying images in your head.

How is it now?

Trin?

Yes?

Pardon?

Do you still see those images you mentioned last time?

I do, sir.

But I'm not sure what is in my head

and what is real anymore.

Close your eyes

and tell me what you see now.

No. No!

Focus.

What do you see?

I see a pile of dead bodies.

And I feel...

I want to ask you a question.

Man to man.

Do you like Cha-aim?

Is that what you want to ask me about?

I think you should think about it carefully.

Dan's a weird guy.

How could you say that?

He's your friend.

Can you be considerate to the baby I'm carrying?

Have you thought about what to do with this?

Who do you think you are? Come out if you dare!

Trin?
