Original subtitles

Well, I’m sad.

If there’s any problem, we can help each other like we always have.

I’m sorry.

Your son is dead.

Who killed my son?

I killed him.

Why did your daughter kill my son?

According to the autopsy,

the cause of death is three bullets of unknown sizes,

resulting in penetrating traumas.

Two of them cut his major arteries through his chest,

and the other was found on the back of his hip.

No trace of physical attacks was found.

It’s assumed that he was killed immediately at the scene.

The autopsy results exactly match the suspect’s confession.

The suspect and her family are willing to pay compensation

and agreed to be prosecuted.

No parole will be requested.

Did she explain her motive?

The suspect has the right not to reveal it.

Can we take Mai home now?

It’s alright.

Plu, when your parents are no longer here,

you still have your grandpa and me here with you.

Now, Phukao’s brother is gone,

but he still has his other brother Plu.

Phukao, I’m here with you.

You still have me as another brother of yours.

From now, feel free to miss Mai

as much as you want to.

I will take care of you for him.

I promise.

(The promise Plu made to Phukao that day)

(makes me understand Grandpa Yo and Grandma Pum.)

(These grandparents are full of strengths,)

(which have been passed on to Plu,)

(a little boy who wants to be a brother to someone.)

CHAPTER 2: THE NEXT STEP

Hey.

Hello, Uncle Oh.

Hi.

Go in.

Zo, wake up already.

Get up and go to school.

Plu, give me ten more minutes.

No.

It’s already late.

Get up now.

Get up.

Okay.

Don’t go back to sleep.

I’m leaving.

Zo!

Get up and go to school now.

Get up.

Go to the bathroom.

Go.

Hello, Auntie Sai.

Hi.'

He’s ready.

He’s putting on his shoes now.

Hang on a second.

Sure.

I cooked Spicy Tamarind Soup with Shrimp and Cha-Om Omelet

for your grandparents,

so they don’t have to go out to buy it.

Thank you.

By the way, do you have some eggs at home?

We do.

Make them some omelets, then.

Sure.

Have you eaten yet?

I was the first person to eat.

He’s here.

I’m sorry, Plu.

No worries.

Let’s go now so that we won’t be late.

Come here.

Mom, I’m leaving.

Goodbye, Auntie Sai.

Bye.

Dad.

Dad.

Make sure you eat it.

You stole it from your mom again, didn’t you?

Please eat it, Dad.

I’m going to school.

How many candidates will they select as finalists?

I don’t know.

It depends on the year.

I hope you become student president.

I know you can do it.

See you.

Go in.

I thought I wouldn’t make it in time.

Plu.

Hello.

Hi, Plu.

Kongkwan, it’s our turn now.

Let’s go.

Did you already buy stuff at that store for Luk?

We already did.

Hey, I forgot to deposit some money for Luk.

Oh?

Don’t worry.

Please go in to visit Luk now.

I’ll go deposit the money for you.

Thanks.

Thanks. Please take care of it for us.

Sure.

Let’s go.

(Though I’m no longer there with them now,)

(I always feel relieved that Plu is there for them.)

Grandpa and Grandma,

your breakfast is ready.

Alright.

You look beautiful.

Let’s go downstairs and have breakfast.

I already had it.

It’s fine if you already did.

Hey, without you sitting next to me,

I don’t feel like eating.

Okay?

Just go sit beautifully next to me.

Good.

I’ll put the comb back.

Let’s go.

Come. Stand up.

Let’s go.

Our beauty is here.

Take a seat.

Wow. It looks yummy.

Spicy Tamarind Soup with Shrimp and Cha-Om Omelet.

It’s your favorite, Grandma.

Auntie Sai cooked it for you.

Here.

Try it

Try it.

Try it and see if it tastes as good as the one you cooked.

This is Plu’s favorite dish, isn’t it?

Don’t eat it.

I’ll keep it for my grandson.

You can’t eat it either.

Eat something else.

This is for Plu, my grandson.

What a regret you can’t eat it today.

It’s alright, Grandpa.

I’ll pack it and bring it with me to the university.

Alright.

She’s finding a place to hide it.

Don’t hide it too far,

or you can’t find it later.

What am I hiding?

Huh?

You’re hiding that sour soup, Plu’s favorite dish.

You’re right.

Let’s eat.

Here.

[Academic Year 2022 School President Finalist Candidates]

[Phukao Siraphuchaya]

Whoa.

You are qualified as a candidate.

How cool you are, my friend.

You didn’t eat breakfast again, did you?

I didn’t.

Take it.

Did you take a shower?

I did last night.

Phukao, you have only few competitors.

You’re certainly winning.

There’s no way Naphat and Nalin can beat you.

Though your academic performance is not as good as theirs,

you definitely kill them when it comes to activities.

Every boy and girl in this school knows you.

I’m betting big on you.

You will become our school president for sure.

Zo, when will you stop waking up late?

I’m talking about this,

but you’re complaining about that.

Let’s go to class.

I’m full.

What’s your plan this evening?

I’m going to the movie.

With that bitch Nink?

Yeah.

When will you break up with her?

You will lose popularity because you’re dating.

Why?

Being single makes you more popular, of course.

Look at your handsome face.

Many juniors are fangirling over you.

Why are you dating that bitch?

You can’t date someone just because you need a movie partner.

It’s unfair.

Go watch movies with me then,

so I don’t have to find a girlfriend.

Why don’t you learn to watch movies alone?

I won’t go.

Marcus cinema is old, and the seat is hard.

I prefer lying down, watching at home.

Stop complaining then.

I’m not complaining.

I’m scolding you.

The three of you have been qualified and selected as the candidates

for our academic year 2022 school president.

Our director has changed the format of this year’s election,

so I want the three of you to be informed of it together.

Please go ahead, Director.

There weren’t any flaws in our previous elections at Pathit Wittaya School,

but this year, I want to try changing it.

Here’s the rule.

I want to make sure that students select this year’s new school president

in a fair and transparent manner.

I believe that all this time,

since you all have been studying here,

your friends must have been familiar with

and known you even better than we do.

I think there’s no need to run any canvass

like how we did in previous years.

So, one week before our election,

organizing any canvass through any means is not allowed.

Let your fellow students discover the real you on their own,

but if any canvass,

vote buying,

or lobbying is found in school,

you will be disqualified,

and it will be included in your education record

that you have to use for university admission.

I hope all three of you are honest enough.

Yes, Director.

Are you worried?

You have always wanted to study there,

and you finally passed the test to get in,

but why are you worried now?

If you don’t want to study there,

you don’t have to.

We respect your decision.

I’m just worried,

but I’m not scared.

I’ve been through this so many times.

You know that, Mom.

I’m already tired of moving and getting away.

I promise I’ll study here until I graduate.

Don’t worry, Mom.

How great you are.

The sun shines so brightly today.

Look.

It smells so good.

I’ll help you with that.

Let me sit with you.

Smell it.

Nice?

It really is.

Cheers!

Zo,

don’t drink too much, or you will get drunk.

You have to go to school tomorrow.

We’re here celebrating for Kongkwan.

Let’s go all out.

Tomorrow, we will be studying at the same school, Kongkwan.

You’re so talented to have passed the test to get in.

But to be honest,

it’s probably partly because of the new school director.

Why?

If it was the former director,

though you made it,

he wouldn’t accept you into the school.

He probably wouldn’t accept you in the first place.

He’s such a conservative type.

He’s afraid of losing face.

He can’t with critical thinking.

Kongkwan, don’t worry

because she will be taking care of you.

That’s right.

No matter what happens, I’ll protect you.

Thank you.

Let’s eat.

Eat a lot.

Thanks.

Pork belly.

Here’s squid for you, Plu.

It’s burning.

Eat slowly, Zo.

It’s still hot since I just gripped it from the grill.

It’s cool now.

By the way,

did Phukao already know that I got accepted into this school?

(You’re already sleepy, aren’t you?)

(Let’s go home, shall we?)

(I can bring you here again.)

(Nope. I’ll watch it today.)

(If you want to watch any movie, I can show you at home.)

(Why do you have to go to the trouble of coming to watch it here?)

(They only show old movies here.)

That’s because Dad and Mom aren’t here.

Why?

You don’t like Dad and Mom?

They don’t like you, Mai.

I know your secret.

What secret?

You don’t have a mom.

But I have my little brother.

Didn’t you say you’re a heavyweight?

This is nothing to me.

It’s just that I lost my control a bit.

Zo.

Can you do me a favor?

I can do many.

Can you go to school with Kongkwan tomorrow?

Why don’t you take her yourself?

You don’t have to drive Phukao every day.

He’s grown up now.

He can go by himself.

I can’t do that.

Phukao has no one with him.

I have to take care of Phukao for Mai the best I can.

What if Phukao hates Kongkwan for his entire life?

Are you willing to miss your chance to be with Kongkwan forever?

Phukao.

How long have you been back?

Have you been here long?

Was the movie fun?

It was fun.

I’m going in.

See you tomorrow.

(Grandma Pum once told me that)

(every time we keep walking,)

(there’re always hard and torturing steps waiting for us.)

Don’t worry if you eat it up.

I can always cook some more.

Thank you, Grandma.

Do you want to bring some for your mom?

Let me know when you’re going to see your mom.

I’ll cook it for you.

Thank you, Grandma.

Don’t worry.

I won’t tell anyone.

Let’s eat.

Don’t worry anymore.

Eat a lot.

Eat.

(It’s a step we want to take to get away from the present day.)

[Happy Birthday, Kongkwan.]

Enough already!

Enough!

Go to sleep.

Are you insane?

You’ve been doing this all night.

I’ll do it for you.

Are you drinking again?

Isn’t the situation now awful enough?

Stop.

Stop drinking now.

I told you to stop.

Will you keep drinking until you die,

following Mai to death, huh?

Give me that liqueur.

Give it to me.

I won’t let you drink anymore.

Let go.

No more drinking!

Enough!

Enough already!

Give me that!

Give me!

Give it to me!

Give me!

I can’t take it any longer.

(Have you lost your mind?!)

(Give me.)

Plu!

Grandma!

Are you in there?

Can you come to help my parents?!

Grandma!

Are you in there?

Papa Oh!

Papa Oh!

Are you home?

Papa Oh!

Open the door for me, please!

Papa Oh!

Papa Oh!

Open the door for me, please.

Happy Birthday to you

[Happy Birthday, Kongkwan.]

Help your little sister.

Be a good girl.

Happy Birthday, Kongkwan.

Happy Birthday, Kongkwan.

Say thank you to him.

Thank you.

I wish you happiness.

(It’s a step we want to take to stay away from our past.)

Teacher,

can you take Kongkwan outside?

I’m scared.

Why, Soda?

Kongkwan is your friend.

There’s nothing to be scared of.

She isn’t.

My mom told me that

Kongkwan is a devil’s younger sister.

One day, she will turn into a devil too.

Kongkwan, get out.

Get out!

Kongkwan, get out!

Phukao.

Are you waiting for Auntie Veena to pick you up?

Do you want to go home with me?

[School Bus]

Hello.

Plu.

Where is Phukao?

He told me you’d pick him up.

Huh?

Plu.

Lookzo.

Where is Kongkwan?

The teacher told me she took the school bus with you guys.

Did you see her?

Did you?

Are you tired?

Wait for me here.

I’ll buy some water for you.

Let’s go.

Walk carefully.

Alright.

Wait for me here.

I’ll be right back.

Okay.

Hey, why aren’t you going home?

Are you lost and couldn’t find where your parents are?

I’m waiting for my brother.

He’ll be back soon.

Let’s go wait where there’s more light.

I’ll take you there.

I can’t.

I must wait here,

or he won’t see me when he returns.

Young boy.

Yes, grandma?

Did you see a six-year-old girl and an eight-year-old boy around?

They’re wearing Daranporn School uniforms similar to his.

Did you see them?

I saw a girl sitting over there.

Kongkwan!

Kongkwan!

Plu!

Kongkwan.

Kongkwan, why are you here?

Phukao told me to wait here.

What are your son and you planning to do?!

What do you want?

We already paid you money and compensation.

What else do you want?

From now, my family will stay away from yours,

and yours must stay away from ours too!

Our family already compensated for every trouble we caused you.

Don’t let your son near my daughter again.

Get this into your head!

Mommy.

Phukao.

Did you leave Kongkwan here on purpose?

It’s alright.

It’s alright.

Don’t cry.

It’s alright.

[Happy Birthday, Kongkwan.]

[I will be your brother forever.]

(It’s a step we don’t even know)

(which way to go.)

[Phukao Siraphuchaya]

Auntie Sai, hello.

Hi.

Where is Phukao?

He already left for school.

He told me you had an exam today,

so he went by himself.

(But for me, the most painful step)

(is when someone we love walks away from us.)

DIRECTED BY KANITTHA KWUNYOO

No matter what others say,

do not keep your head down or turn your back.

You knew from the start that Kongkwan would move to this school, didn’t you?

If you bother my sister,

I’ll jump kick your face.

If you feel so uncomfortable because I moved to this school,

I can’t help you with that.

Stop!

Stay away from me!

Get lost if you can!

Or die already!

My family won’t go anywhere,

and we won’t die either!

Leave me alone!

I want to have at least one person in my life I can trust.

Can you do me a favor?

Can you stay away from Kongkwan?
