I want you all to believe in what Home School is going to teach.

Run, you think you can stop Master Amin, right?

-I can do it. -I'll help you escape from Home School.

How was it, Run?

Did you just get punished?

Yes.

I went to reflect on my mistake

as Master Prasath ordered.

Studying at Home School isn't easy at all, is it?

Yes.

As you said, studying at Home School is really not easy.

But I've heard several Masters praise Zero and you a lot

for scoring the highest among GEN4 students.

But that still isn't good enough.

I'm afraid I'll disappoint you.

This is the first time I feel I'm a good-for-nothing.

Don't say that, Run.

You just started studying here.

You have done well enough so far.

You're a 16-year-old kid

who successfully learned hypnosis.

To me, you're very talented, Run.

Thank you so much, Master Amin,

for believing in me.

Amin.

Hey, Amin!

What?

Amin.

Where is the wine that Lady Rata gave us?

Dad?

What brings you here?

Run, I'm the owner of this place.

It would be strange if I wasn't here.

Remember this.

As my adoptive son,

you must try to befriend that boy Zero as much as possible

because he's Lady Rata's son.

This family is minted. Got it?

That's difficult to do.

Zero loathes me.

How can it be difficult?

He's a rich boy. All you must do is spoil him,

take care of him and make him feel privileged,

and he will love you.

Don't worry.

One of our Home School rules says students must love each other.

Fine.

But I don't give a shit about your rules.

Just make profits for me.

By the way, where is the wine Lady Rata gave us?

I'm afraid keeping liquor inside the school is inappropriate.

School?

This is my home.

I'm the owner.

I have the right to. I can do whatever I want.

Where is my wine?

It's in my office.

It's just as easy as that.

What should we do now?

If we want to know what those Masters' plan is,

we must pretend to go with the flow.

But this time, it's scary.

We don't know if someone will disappear again tomorrow.

Also, we have no clue what Masters are planning.

You're right.

They forced us to believe what they said. How could they even do that to us?

Why do adults like to do such a thing?

They just want us to believe what they want

and follow what they think is right.

But their definition of right is the standard they set on their own.

To you, is what Home School does good or bad?

But I think, for some matters,

they have been trying to help us too.

To be honest,

I'm confused.

Sometimes I want to believe them,

but their behaviors make it hard to do so.

That's right. It's like they're messing with our heads.

But I think we definitely won't agree

with what Master Amin is planning to do.

It's probably the reason why Run has been locked up.

But now, we don't know where they have him locked up.

Is it possible

that they haven't locked him up here?

No.

I feel Run is here.

Can I ask you something?

Why did you change your mind to help me?

It's because Master Amin has changed.

He's no longer the person I used to know.

Did you just realize that?

I have felt that since the day

Master Amin ordered me to kill my adoptive dad.

But that's what Mr. Bodin deserved.

No matter how terrible my adoptive dad was,

killing each other wasn't the solution.

Master Amin, that I knew, would never use this solution.

Getting back at violence by using violence will only turn us into a beast.

Master Amin also said this to you, right?

He did.

In the past,

when I was bullied by my friends

and hurt by Dad,

Master Amin would often say this to me.

In your mind,

why has Master Amin changed this much?

His desire to get revenge, perhaps.

A vengeful feeling,

built up for long, can possibly change someone.

But how vengeful must he have felt

to deal with it in such a cruel way?

Who's that?

Is it you, Maki?

Or is it you, Pleng?

Show yourself now!

I know you've been tailing me.

Will you show yourself or not?

I'll hit you. Show yourself already.

It's you, Nai?

Why are you following me?

How should I explain it?

What?

Say it properly.

I'm worried about you.

You're worried? About what?

I'm afraid you'll disappear.

That's why you're following me?

Do you also want to sleep and guard me?

I'm thinking about doing that.

If Master couldn't catch me,

I would sleep next to you.

Are you serious?

Yep.

How about Maki, Pleng,

Pennueng, Tibet, Mek and Mork?

Aren't you following them too?

I can't duplicate myself, can I?

That's why I must follow the person...

I'm most worried about.

I see.

Next time, don't tail me. Got it?

If you want to accompany me or walk me to my room,

just tell me frankly.

Okay.

Are we holding hands?

Is that a good idea?

Do you even have to hold my hand?

Your lamp. I'll hold it for you.

Right.

You're such a gentleman.

Incredible.

What a gentleman.

That's nice.

What?

Those Masters have disappeared again.

I guess they're going inside the forest.

Should we follow them?

We don't have to.

That won't be helpful.

We'll end up getting caught anyway.

Those Masters won't allow us to go inside the forest easily.

But it's also our chance.

What chance?

Our chance to get into Master Amin's office.

Maki, what are we looking for?

Anything that could be a clue about what happened to Run.

I've been searching all over Home School,

but I haven't found a clue about him.

This is the only room I didn't get to search around yet.

Do you really think Master Amin locked Run up in this room?

Someone like Master Amin probably thinks

the safest place is the nearest place.

Do you think

there's something like a secret door in his office?

Tibet, that's possible.

This is Home School.

You're right.

Hey, help me look around.

Okay.

I...

What is it?

I think I found something.

Hey?

Hurry inside.

Your brother is probably in there.

What are you doing in my room?

Maki?

This is seriously against the rules.

What's inside?

That has nothing to do with you.

-Get out. -You have Run locked up in there, right?

I said, get out.

We're sorry for sneaking in.

Feel free to punish us in whatever way you want, Master Amin.

But please tell us the truth already.

The truth?

The truth is...

there's nothing in that room,

apart it from being your adoptive dad's secret room.

My adoptive dad?

Dad Bodin?

Did he come here before?

This house belongs to your dad.

Bodin is the owner of Home School.

Get out!

What did Maki and Tibet do last night?

Why are they being punished?

I'm curious too.

What did they do?

Or did they follow those Masters?

Or they probably found something.

I'm upset with Tibet.

He didn't ask me to go with him.

Where are Mek and Mork, by the way?

They're running in the forest with Master Champ.

Are they being punished?

Yes.

Master Champ saw Mek and Mork steal my croissants.

Wow. That sounds like a big deal.

If Mek and Mork just stole croissants,

and their punishment is even running in the forest.

Will Maki and Tibet be all right?

Won't the punishment be even more severe?

I think they're kneeling down, reflecting on their mistake

at the Tree of Remorse.

The Tree of Remorse?

Just hearing its name already scares me.

How can you have an appetite?

Aren't you worried about our friends?

I am worried about them.

But it seems like you really enjoy eating croissants.

It doesn't look like you're worried.

I hide it inside.

I see that Pleng looks really worried,

so I want to make Pleng feel at ease.

Thank you, Pennueng.

Good afternoon, kids.

Do you need anything, Master Prasat?

Nothing.

I just want to watch you.

Watch what?

You guys.

Why? Can't I?

Are you hiding something from me?

No.

Nothing.

Nothing?

I'll keep watching you then.

Master Prasat,

do you want something from us?

I clearly told you what I want.

You remind me of the wonderer kid.

Wonderer kid?

What is that?

I hardly spoke when you asked another question.

Pleng and I want to know

why you're doing this, Master.

Why are you kids so full of curiosity?

You keep asking questions.

It's because adults like to behave suspiciously.

Right.

You're right.

Well then,

if you feel annoyed,

I'll leave now. I won't watch you anymore.

I changed my mind already.

I want to play a game with you two.

What game?

Coin guessing.

It's easy.

Just guess if it's A or B.

What do we get if we guess it correctly?

Why are you such a curious kid?

But I want to know

what the purpose of this coin guessing thing is.

Well then, you must guess it correctly.

Well, I'll go with A.

You guessed it correctly.

Look.

So what do I get?

You'll get to eat this popcorn.

What if we guess it wrong?

Just try getting the wrong answer.

Hang in there, Maki.

Yeah. I'm all right.

How are you, Tibet?

Yeah.

Please continue feeling remorseful for your action.

You're not allowed to talk.

How long are you going to keep punishing us?

We've been here overnight.

Until you feel remorseful.

Are we wrong because we want to find out the truth?

Since Master Amin mentioned that

it's not time for you to learn the truth yet,

that means you're still not ready to face it.

How could you judge that we aren't ready?

I don't need to answer your question.

You're being punished.

Learn to be remorseful for your action.

It seems you really trust Master Amin.

Whatever he asks you to do, you agree to follow.

Have you ever questioned him?

You don't know Master Amin

the way I do.

So what kind of person is Master Amin, whom you know?

He's better than Bodin, your adoptive dad.

How did Master Amin and Dad...

start Home School together?

How much longer will it take

for the kids to be ready for Project R?

Master Amin,

we can still stop now.

Why must we stop, Master Praeporn?

There's a better way to take revenge.

I don't need a good way.

I want to take revenge to get this into their heads,

so that it won't happen again.

Do you still remember

how Home School started?

Anyway.

Make sure everything is ready, Master Praeporn.

No matter what,

Project R must continue.

Leave now.

You're now ready to start the new game, aren't you?

But I'm sure you won't let me join this game.

That's a shame.

I want to see you play this game with your sister.

How could we get to this point, Master Amin?

To the point where you and I must kill each other.

Do you know

how Home School was started?

I guess it was founded because

you wanted to take revenge on my adoptive dad.

No.

Not at all, Run.

Home School started...

because of love.

Since you and I are turning into enemies,

I'll tell you about the start of Home School.

It started here

in this room.

The room you're in now was once

the shelter room for Bodin, your adoptive dad.

It's where he hid when the master hurt him.

Why are you so late?

Did my dad already leave home?

He left a while ago.

Don't tell anyone about this.

If anyone finds out, you're dead.

Sure, Mr. Bodin.

I'm just one of the orphans

you provided a place to live for.

I won't be ungrateful.

You're right.

Remember this.

You're serving me.

I own your life.

Don't betray me.

Got it?

When my dad dies,

everything in this house will become mine.

If you treat me well,

I'll take care of you

even better than how my dad does.

Sure, Mr. Bodin.

This is what this world is like.

You must learn to take care of and spoil the person who's superior,

one day, that person will take care of you in return.

Look at my dad.

He takes good care of and spoils every orphan here.

But he keeps slapping and hitting me.

It might seem Bodin was pitiful,

but, in fact,

Bodin was as brutal as the master, his dad, was to him.

You can't?

It's just searching for bananas in the forest,

but you can't do it?

Hey? Are you crying already?

How could you call yourself a man?

Answer!

Come!

Why are you quiet? Hey!

I asked you, so you must answer! Hey!

Answer my question!

Are you crazy? What?

Don't you know bananas? Why can't you find them?

What? Say it.

Do you know bananas?

Answer!

Hey.

Are you still reading?

You already graduated. Why are you still reading?

I think reading books and learning are endless.

There's always new things for us to learn.

What are you talking about? I don't get it.

Why are you reading this?

To make you smarter?

You'll end up serving me anyway.

You'd better spend your time spoiling me.

You're an orphan without parents,

and nobody is willing to raise you,

so you must find your own way to get by.

You can't learn this from a book.

Noted, Mr. Bodin.

I'll keep this in mind.

Hey.

Don't press too hard.

I'm bruised there.

Move up.

Throughout my life here,

I was both a friend and a servant to him.

But I also got to learn that a person's trait can be passed on

by how he was brought up.

All right.

Whose birthday is on Monday?

Are you soulmates?

Let's start. One, two, three.

Two times one equals two.

Two times two equals four.

Two times three equals six.

Two times four equals eight.

Two times five equals ten. Two times six equals 12.

Two times seven equals 14.

Two times eight is 16. Two times nine is 18.

Two times ten is 20. Two times eleven is 22.

Two times twelve is 24.

Great job.

Are you hungry? Is anyone hungry?

-Some snacks, please. -Snacks?

Does anyone want to eat some snacks?

You're raising both hands.

-Let's eat. -Orange juice.

Hey, Amin. Come here.

This is Pinya, my fiancée.

From now on, you must take good care of her.

Got it?

Yes, Mr. Bodin.

Please take care of me, Amin.

But one thing Bodin said is right.

What were you doing?

I was teaching the kids multiplication.

They all did a great job.

People's lives aren't equal.

I taught them myself.

I'm glad you praised them.

The person who's richer and more well-heeled is always given a chance

to achieve something good before others.

Pinya was also a victim of social disparity.

Her family forced an arranged marriage on her

in exchange for a large amount of money.

Amin...

wait.

Can you keep me company?

What's making you feel uncomfortable, Ms. Pinya?

Several things, Amin.

My life is like jail.

Since birth,

my parents have treated me as if they're detainers.

Whatever they order me to do,

I must agree to,

or else, they will call me ungrateful.

Ms. Pinya,

I have something interesting for you to try.

Would you like to try playing it?

What is it?

Please show me your hands.

Okay.

Yes. Like this.

Now make a fist with your right hand,

and open your left hand.

-Like this? -Yes. That's correct.

Now, please close your eyes.

Ms. Pinya, please listen carefully to what I say

and imagine.

Please imagine that

you're holding a balloon in your right hand.

That balloon is gigantic.

It is gigantic,

and it keeps pulling your hand up.

It keeps going up.

At the same time,

I'll place a rock,

which is very heavy, on your left hand.

The balloon in your right hand keeps getting bigger.

It's getting bigger.

You feel comfortable

as your hand moves up.

You feel freest.

But on your left hand,

I'm putting more rocks.

One more.

Two more.

I keep adding them.

It's getting heavier.

Heavier.

Heavier.

Open your eyes.

How did you do that, Amin?

It's like you're using magic.

It's not magic.

It's called hypnosis.

Hypnosis?

It's when we order our brain or subconscious

to do what we say.

When you believe,

you will automatically do what is said, without knowing,

just like how you just did.

Amin, can you do another type of hypnosis?

Which one?

Hypnotize us...

to love someone.

When it comes to love,

we can't do that.

Sadly,

we can't force our own heart.

Are you really going to marry Mr. Bodin?

I have to marry Bodin.

And will you be happy?

You don't need to marry someone you don't love.

If it's just because your family ordered you to,

you mustn't do it.

Amin, do you know what my dream is?

I don't know.

My dream is to become a mother.

I want to have kids

and my own family.

That's why I believe

that I can be happy with my marriage

even though I don't love him.

But I will love my child the best I can.

But sometimes,

this world is cruel to us.

It doesn't give us a chance to follow our dream.

Stop!

Let go of me! I don't want to argue with you. It hurts.

You have no right to walk away from me. Got it?

I don't want to argue with you, Bodin.

Let go of me. Let go of me, Bodin.

It hurts. Let go!

Let go of me! Let go!

Let go!

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Why don't you listen to me?

I told you, didn't I? I told you already, didn't I?

Answer me!

I told you, but why didn't you listen?

Didn't you remember it? I already talked to you about this.

Why didn't you get this into your head?

Ms. Pinya!

Ms. Pinya!

Ms. Pinya!

My baby.

My baby.

My baby.

My baby!

My baby!

My baby!

It's getting dark.

You'd better get some rest inside, Ms. Pinya.

Not yet.

I want to continue watching these kids play for a while.

You don't have to keep staying here.

If you want to get out of here,

I'll help you.

I don't want to go anywhere.

I want to stay here.

-But... -This is the only place

I can still be a mother to the kids.

I'm sorry...

that I can't help you with anything.

I hope...

that one day...

this place will turn into a school,

a home,

and a true family for these kids.

All the kids who were abandoned,

who don't have parents,

must be provided love

and good education.

All of them must be safe

and not be hurt by others anymore.

I will name this place...

Home School.

It's a school that feels like home.

I'll help you, Ms. Pinya.

We'll establish it.

We'll establish Home School

to be a home for the kids.

Ms. Pinya, are you all right?

I'm all right.

I just have a mild headache.

Let's go inside and get some rest.

Ms. Pinya!

Ms. Pinya!

I'm enraged by the world that has designed the society

to force and torture the poor,

who are reaching a dead end.

But what I hate the most is

people who hurt their family members.

And this was how Home School started.

Did you ask for me, Mr. Bodin?

Have a seat. I have something to talk to you about.

It's all right.

I'm selling this house.

-But master said before he died that... -So what?

My dad's already dead.

I don't want to continue running this orphanage.

Doing it won't earn me money.

I have no reason to keep it either.

I'd better sell it for some profit.

But this house belongs to you and Ms. Pinya.

It's just a house.

From now on,

you can either continue living with me,

or go live on your own.

But if you need anything, let me know.

I'll help.

I know you don't have money.

How about changing this place to a school

for abandoned kids?

Amin.

I'm a businessman.

I won't do something that doesn't make money.

How about making it a special school

for troublesome kids from wealthy families?

It will be a school for kids whose parents and families don't want.

In exchange for sending their kids to study here,

these rich families will pay a hefty tuition fee.

Continue.

We will change this place to a boarding school

and take care of our students using a special curriculum.

We will change them into new kids

the way their parents want.

How can you change them?

I'll use hypnotherapy.

I'll change both their behaviors and mindsets.

That sounds interesting.

Are you sure you can do it?

I am.

I will make it successful.

Are you sure...

it can make profits for me?

I want to return your favor, Mr. Bodin.

I'll make you richer than you have ever been.

Deal.

How talented you are. Way to go.

Bodin never knew that

the real purpose of Home School is

to get revenge on the world

for creating a distorted and unequal society

and for creating a beast hidden in a family.

After that, I spent several years experimenting,

gathering crew members and designing a new curriculum.

And finally,

the Home School you see now, has been successfully founded.

Did Dad adopt me because of the woman called Pinya?

No.

If Bodin thought that,

he would have never hurt you and your sister.

So...

why did he adopt me?

He adopted you and your sister to put on a front.

So you wanted me to kill him because of this, right?

But you told me this, didn't you?

If we get back at violence by using violence,

in the end, we'll turn into a beast.

My thought has changed

since I've found out that I'm dying.

Are we doing the right thing?

There's nothing right

if we want to get revenge.

Mek, Mork!

Home School has changed.

They aren't teaching us anymore.

If we get back at violence by using violence,

in the end, we'll turn into a beast.

What will you do to the thing you hate?

We'll fight with you, Masters!

You must escape from Home School now.

Master Praeporn,

I will stop Master Amin.
