"Nakee"

She was the one who brought misery upon us all.

Chase both of them out! Get out of here!

I'll prove it if you won't believe it.

I'll descend into the cave under Dhevalai.

Pon!

(Chanting mantra)

I shall use that fire along with Pirod ring's enchantment

to defeat Goddess Nakee.

Where am I?

My city.

No mortal has ever set foot upon this place but you.

So that means I'm a very important guest to you?

His name is Chaiyasingha.

The wish that the goddess yearned for a millennia

is coming to fruition.

Upon the arrival of the next eclipse,

the curse placed by Lord Suttho will finally be lifted.

She'll become a human

and live alongside Chaiyasingha reborn at last.

But wherever the love is,

there exists suffering.

To love is to crave.

Lueamprapat.

Love is a beautiful thing that nourishes this world.

Being able to love is already a great bliss.

You've not experienced a love like that.

You don't know what it's like.

True, love heralds happiness.

Yet one must prepare for the suffering

should one day the love is lost.

Lueamprapat, worry not of things yet to come.

The more the worry, the more the suffering.

Seize whatever happiness before you.

It has been long since the last time I saw her brimming with joy.

My dryad.

I thought you left me.

I will not leave you.

For there is only you who can leave me.

It's so beautiful.

Wherever love takes root,

beauty blooms as its flower.

Something mattered?

Nothing.

I must have seen things.

I am filled with joy in your company.

So am I.

I wish this moment could last forever.

Though this is only a dream.

My dryad.

Before long, Chaiyasingha.

Just a little more time.

I will do anything to be with you.

It is but imminent.

I'll look forward to it.

You smell so good.

Refreshing, like star jasmine.

So it was your scent.

I know not what morrow may herald.

Can you make me a promise, Chaiyasingha?

Whether this is a dream or reality,

no matter who I am,

or what I am...

Can I be the only one in your heart?

I love you.

No matter what will happen,

I will love you.

I promise.

Or I can swear if you'd like.

It is not necessary.

For I believe in you.

In every word distilled from your heart.

Another stupid dream.

Dhevalai?

Just a little more, my dryad.

Dryad?

What dryad are you talking about?

That's stupid!

Wait. You're my dryad.

Last night, you said that you love me.

Who said that?

And what did you do to me last night?

Last night, I...

Well, I...

Well?

I... just...

Dryad!

Kumkaew...

Dryad?

Kumkaew?

Anything happened? Did he make it out alive?

Didn't see him come out, sir.

Guess he's done for.

He insulted the goddess.

No wonder he met such a pitiful end.

This is only the first.

So long as those city folks are in Donmaipa,

Nakee's rage will not be appeased.

Then, offer the rest of them city folks to the goddess.

Where's Kumkaew?

Went gathering wild stuff since daybreak.

More like went to Dhevalai cave last night

and haven't returned yet.

She was here the entire night. Why would she go there?

To cuddle with Tossapol, of course.

I'm telling you, watch your mouth.

Kumkaew.

-Kumkaew! -Lamjiak.

She doesn't feel well lately.

Come back tomorrow if there's anything.

If she doesn't feel well, why go out?

So?

Where's the wild stuff? I don't see any.

Go home.

No.

-I'm asking you nicely. -I am not leaving.

I'm not asking twice.

Fine, I'll leave.

I hereby proclaim,

that the city boy is now officially dead!

What?

-Pon is dead? -Tossapol?

Dad!

Good people won't come to harm, you said? Abbot!

And how could this happen?

"Kammuna vattatiloko."

The world goes according to karma.

Rest in peace, Pon.

It's not true! Poor Pon!

Don't be sad.

You'll be seeing him very soon.

Bring them to Dhevalai.

Sacrifice them to the Goddess Nakee!

Hold on!

Let go of my friends!

It's Pon! Pon still alive!

-Pon! -Pon!

You're alive! It's really you!

-You're alive! -Pon!

Tossapol is still alive, dad! He's still alive!

I made it back in one piece.

Hope you're still keeping your word.

Told you guys he'll come back.

Gosh! That insolent brat!

Tossapol is alive.

That means he's destined to be my soulmate.

How could this be possible?

Maybe the goddess doesn't exist?

Just like what he said?

Of course, she exists!

It's Kumkaew. She's the Snake Goddess' minion.

If she's the goddess' minion,

she would have killed Tossapol.

Why would she spare him?

He must have good stuff. That's why he survived.

He does.

Good stuff. Very good stuff.

So good until Nakee wanted to make him her husband.

Hey, check your bags.

Maybe the headman and his goons could have taken our stuff.

Please, not my camera.

What a relief.

If it's gone, I'm as good as dead.

Pon, thank you so much.

You saved us from the chopping block just at the perfect time.

How was your spelunking last night?

No idea.

Comfy, I guess?

One question. You look squeaky clean.

Not even a single mosquito bite.

Yes, you're right.

You sure you went inside a cave?

Of course, I did.

Whether the goddess is inside or not,

there have to be some snakes.

How could you avoid them?

I don't know.

I'm not sure myself what happened.

Kumkaew.

Kumkaew?

Can you let me in?

Kumkaew?

Are you all right?

I'm fine.

Can we talk later?

I want to be alone for now.

Miss Kampong.

What a relief. I'm so glad you're safe.

Villagers should no longer be obsessed with the goddess now.

Just because you survived,

it doesn't mean the myth is completely debunked.

Perhaps, it is not your time yet.

How is Kumkaew doing though?

She's been acting weird since she returned from the Dhevalai.

Did you two do something?

What happened back there?

Everything's so fuzzy as if it was a dream.

What happened?

Did I slip up and lose myself to him?

What in the world? They slipped away again!

And now the villagers stopped believing

that Kumkaew is Nakee's minion snake.

If this goes on, it'll be more difficult for us to get rid of her.

She might have slithered away this time.

But the truth is the truth.

Just wait.

I'll unmask that snake witch's charade someday.

She'll pay for what she had done to my son!

Just thinking about that ominous idol infuriates me.

I'd rather smash it into pieces right now.

The more I look at it, the more it resembles Kumkaew.

That idol.

It must have something to do with Kumkaew

as well as the goddess herself.

Just looking at it gives me the creep and goosebumps.

Geez. If this goes on, we should just return it.

Put it back in the cave under Dhevalai.

You can't do that. If you return the idol there,

you might as well unleash a tiger from its shackles.

Letting it on the loose.

That will make things difficult for us.

Geez, that is no. We can't do this.

Why bother keeping it?

That idol is the symbol of Goddess Nakee.

If you seek to destroy her,

you'll have to destroy the idol as well.

Kumkaew.

Kumkaew. Have you eaten yet?

I'm not hungry.

Kumkaew.

Are you okay?

I just feel exhausted.

Kumkaew, open the door for me, please.

It's not that bad, mother.

Just a little rest and I'll be fine.

Kumkaew. Open the door, Kumkaew.

Kumkaew! Wait! We need to talk! Kumkaew!

I have nothing to say to you.

If you refuse,

I'll tell you what happened to your mother.

What happened?

Come with me.

Say your piece.

I am sorry, Kumkaew.

About last night, I have no idea how it happened.

But I swear on my honour as a man,

I didn't violate you in the slightest.

I know.

But a woman of Donmaipa,

just touching another man is already against the customs.

Disgraceful.

If anyone knows,

mother and I have to endure all the shame and mockery.

Wait, Kumkaew! Listen.

Unhand me.

You think you can do whatever you want

to a bumpkin girl like me?

That's not what I think of you at all, Kumkaew.

To me, you're the woman I love.

I want to take care of you.

I want to spend the rest of my life with you.

What if I tell you

this has to do with our previous life?

Would you believe me?

I dreamed of myself in my previous life.

And I dreamed of a woman that looked just like you.

I call her dryad.

I've been dreaming of her since the moment I stepped into Donmaipa.

I thought it was just a dream.

Then I found you.

You made me realize that she truly exists.

And could be the same one as you.

What about you, Kumkaew?

Have you ever dreamed of this dryad?

Enough already!

I don't want to hear any of it!

You need to listen to me.

I believe that in previous life, we were soulmates.

I don't know how to explain it any better.

Doesn't matter if it's this life or another life.

I will still love you, Kumkaew.

But I never love you.

I hate you!

You're more disgusting than worms!

Save your trickery for another woman.

Leave me alone and get out of my life!

Smash it!

Hurry!

Before she kills you!

Go... Don't chicken out, boys.

Is that all you got?

What a bunch of weaklings!

Smash it!

Gosh. Is that a stone or a steel?

Not even a scratch.

Hey, what's on your mind, Pon?

Still thinking about your descent into the cave that you can't sleep?

Hey, Pon. Serious question.

How come you survived the goddess' wrath?

Right.

In that cave, there's no such thing as Nakee

nor any kind of spirits or demons that villagers believe in.

-There was only... -A giant snake!

A giant snake, was it? Some gigantic mega snake.

Was it scary? How big was it?

Come on, that's not it.

If there are any, they were pythons or such.

Even if there was no goddess,

how come you survived those snakes?

Well, I have no idea either.

-Any traces of the professor? -Oh, right.

The cave was complex like a maze.

But I think the paths are interconnected.

He's probably lost in there.

Even I stumbled on...

On what?

-On what, Pon? -On what?

A hidden city.

-A hidden city? -A hidden city?

Yes. It was beautiful, guys.

As if I was in a dream,

there was an emerald pool.

The water was clear as a mirror.

Everything was so surreal.

In that Dhevalai cave?

Yeah.

Either you were dreaming or you were hallucinating.

Right. What was it again?

A hidden city?

An emerald pool?

Were you high on weeds, man?

Or were you just sleepy?

-Were you drunk? -Exhausted?

You guys don't believe me?

Don't be so sure.

Maybe you saw those things

because something sacred within influenced you to see them.

Hey, abbot. Not this nonsense again.

Who knows if it was true?

Will it even come true?

Even if it takes my life, I will not give up.

You evil goddess

deserves to burn in the fiery pit!

What in the world?

That woman is haunted by the idol?

Hey, shaman.

What's wrong with the headman?

He's shaking like a leaf.

The Goddess' vengeance.

His retribution for attempting to destroy that idol.

Am I going to be stuck with this to death?

So long the idol is whole,

I can only assume so.

I must destroy that accursed idol!

If you can't do that just yet,

then we must suppress its power.

Suppress? Suppress how?

Say what?

You're going to steal the idol back from the headman?

Yeah.

I have a feeling that the headman is going to destroy it.

He thinks it represents the goddess herself.

You want to risk your life for that demihuman idol?

Are you sure it's worth it?

I made a promise to Mr. Tassanai

that I'd keep that idol safe.

Yet I failed.

Our ancient national treasure is going to be destroyed.

You're just going to sit idly by?

If you're not going, I'm going myself.

Wait, man. Don't be hasty.

Nothing to lose, let's do it.

-Yes. -I'm in.

-Me, too. -Okay. Then let's go.

Let's go.

The idol is in danger.

Hey, the idol's not here.

What? Where could it be?

And where are the headman's lackeys?

I looked everywhere. Nothing.

Maybe they already destroyed it?

What?

If they did, there has to be remains of it.

But there's nothing.

Maybe it was moved somewhere?

You have any idea where?

Who's that?

Kumkaew?

She startled me.

What are you doing here?

Save your question. Help me find the goddess' idol.

It's not here anymore.

And this village is big.

Where are we supposed to look for it?

By the time we found it, it might be too late.

What do we do now?

The idol is at the waterfront.

Follow me.

After her!

We're too late.

They took the idol on the raft.

We won't make it. They're too far ahead.

It's over.

What do we do?

Nong Sai temple.

It's around 15 km away from Donmaipa.

We must get there before dusk.

I don't get it. Why take it to the temple?

Such a cursed abomination has to be at the temple.

The sacred power will suppress the evil influence within it.

Only then, we can find a way to destroy it.

No, don't go!

Guys, look!

Headman, it's a Naga!

It is just a cloud.

What's so scary about it?

-Hurry up and row! -But...

Between me and Nakee, whom do you serve?

Hey! Look!

This is bad! It's a giant wave!

Gosh! Shaman, what should we do now?

Hold tight!

It's coming!

The idol is falling!

What exactly was that?

It came out of nowhere and it's gone!

You want another wave of that or what? You idiot!

Oh, no! The idol has fallen into the river!

What's that just now?

I think that idol's better off underwater

than smashed to pieces by Yam and his men anyway.

But to be honest, that's still a shame.

No one will probably see that idol again.

Now that it's at the riverbed,

nobody can salvage it up.

A shame, indeed.

That idol is important archaeological evidence of Marukkanakorn's existence.

Such a pity. We failed to keep such heritage safe.

But on second thoughts,

perhaps that's where it belongs.

Away from those who wanted to destroy it.

I bet there was something under the water.

That's why the raft got wrecked.

-It has to be it! -Underwater current, of course.

Even a large ship can't stand the underwater current.

But didn't the wave just now flow against the current?

Right!

I tell you.

It's the wrath of the Mekong river's Naga.

Hey, Kit! You're getting more credulous by the day!

-I'm telling the truth. -If the Naga really exists,

why won't it just show itself?

Have you ever seen the wind?

You know what it looks like?

Of course, you don't.

You just know it exists.

The same goes for the Nagas.

Who would have thought that

the goddess could be so powerful?

If we can't get rid of a stupid statue,

don't even think about getting rid of Kumkaew!

Thinking about it now, it could be good.

The idol is now underwater.

Now, it'll be as good as gone forever.

You thought Nakee was now powerless?

Explain it, shaman.

Don't forget. Nakee is a Naga goddess, not a ghost.

Now that she's under the water, she'll be even more powerful!

She'll wield even more influence.

What are you wasting your breath for?

Hurry up and get this raft to the shore!

-It's still strange. -Yes.

A massive wave came out of nowhere and went the next second.

The idol's better off sunken, I guess.

Good, now I can just go home.

Yeah, guess it's better off for us, too.

Hey, you talk to her yourself.

Talk to him, not us.

Not us.

Now that the idol has sunk to the riverbed

and the professor is nowhere to be found,

I think we should return to Bangkok.

It's no use staying here.

We don't know if we're going to run into another trouble.

I'm going nowhere, Pim.

Not until I found Mr. Tassanai.

Who knows? Maybe the goddess ate him already.

Don't say such a thing, Pim.

I don't want to hear it.

You sure you want to stay to look for him?

Not because you want to stay with Kumkaew?

Mr. Boonsong, Mr. Supat.

Your ride is now ready.

Don't.

Mr. Boonsong.

You need to bring that gold ornament along?

Why though?

To settle an old score.

What exactly is your purpose in going to Donmaipa?

Looking for my daughter

and face the old enemy that rendered me crippled.

Let's go already.

Just a little more.

What did you do to me last night?

Last night, I...

Well, I...

Well?

What happened last night...

Was it real or was it just a dream?

Dream or not,

I still get to hug you while sleeping.

Get lost!

Scoundrel. Crook. Opportunistic!

When are you going to believe me, Kumkaew?

For us to have met, it was destined.

Go to hell if I buy that nonsense.

Wait, Kumkaew.

We need to talk it out.

Leave me alone.

I don't want to see you again.

You can run from me, but you can't run from the truth.

You violated the custom with me.

You have to be mine, Kumkaew!

Kumkaew got Tossapol?

Didn't know she could be such an aggressive witch.

What did she do? How could she seduce Tossapol?

Kumkaew, you dirty witch!

How dare you steal my man!

Hey, Kumkaew!

Aren't you such a shameless witch?

Not so fast!

-Move aside. -Why?

Hurrying home to feed your husband?

Such a weak face.

Looks like she's been feeding him a lot.

Guess you fed him so much you can't walk right now, huh?

Did the truth hurt?

Got nothing to say, liar?

What are you talking about?

Don't pretend to be stupid.

You seduced Tossapol.

-I didn't. -Don't make any excuses!

I heard every one of your misdeeds.

Sornklin, Chaba!

Restrain her!

-Let me go! -What a shameless witch.

You must be punished!

You took my Tossapol!

Don't move!

Miss! Her face burns!

Good. I'll wreck your pretty face!

Hurry up!

Strip her!

Get off me, you stupid oaf!

My face...

Why did it burn so bad?

I must get to the Dhevalai.

O Nakee, great mother.

Why is everyone so cruel to me?

What have I ever done to them...

to make everyone in Donmaipa despise me?

-Hurry up! -The Naga! The flood is coming!

Donmaipa...

was attacked by a Naga before?

Terrifying.

Everyone drowned

because of that Naga.

Halt.

Have you seen not, Lueamprapat?

Niruttarat is on that raft.

Karma rendered him crippled in this life.

Such a poor creature.

Yet it pales

compared to what he did to the goddess in his previous life.

What reason could have made him return here?

For whatever reason,

he shall never leave with his life.

My goodness, sir. There's something underwater.

What in the world is going on?

Hang in there!

-This is not an ordinary threat. -Hang in there, Im!

Chutsuda!

He must be protected by some holy object.

Such a powerful force that could repel even me...

What could it be?

Why still bother waiting, Pon?

Kumkaew.

It's about time.

Where have you been?

To leave others hungry waiting for you.

Kumkaew, are you all right? Where did you go?

I'm so worried about you.

Why worry? She's not your family.

We don't even know what she is.

Pim!

Not just not your family.

Maybe even worse.

Care to explain?

Tell them, Kumkaew.

Explain to them.

Fine, I'll tell you guys.

Kumkaew and Tossapol...

They already violated the custom.

What? What did you just say?

Is that true, Kumkaew?

Mom.

Pon. That's not true, right?

Tell me, she's lying, isn't she?

Me and Kumkaew...

We did just that.

Why did you do that?

Even with me always by your side.

How could you just sleep with a random peasant like her?

What's so bad about me?

Am I worthless to you?

Tell me, Pon!

It's not that you are worthless, Pim.

But I don't love you.

Moreover...

What a shameless and disgraceful witch.

Like her mother.

If anyone heard this,

I wonder if you can still bear to live.

Shut up.

How could do you this, mister?

You caused us so much trouble!

And now you violated my daughter?

I shouldn't have sheltered you.

Mom...

Don't believe his words.

I'm sorry, madam.

I don't know what exactly happened.

But I do love her.

I will marry her.

I promise.

I will look after her for the rest of her life.

Pon!

Tossapol!

It's fine. Just get out of my life.

What's done is done.

Just go back to Bangkok.

I don't want to see you again.

Kumkaew!

You think you can pretend to be difficult

so that he will come after you?

That's not what I'm thinking.

Then, what are you thinking?

To steal my property.

Thought you're just a meek yokel,

never thought at all that you're such a witch.

Shut up already!

Don't say I didn't warn you.

Don't even think you'll live happily ever after stealing my man.

A witch like you is at best his plaything.

Nobody sane is going to make a wife out of you!

Soon, when he returns to Bangkok,

he'll forget that you ever exist!

Hey, Pon.

Even if you love Kumkaew,

but you shouldn't have been so hasty

and forced her like that.

If I was her, I would've been so mad, too.

Hey, Wanchana.

Are you trying to comfort him or what?

I'm just telling the truth.

Actually...

I didn't violate her at all.

What?

Then why did you tell Miss Kampong that you did?

-Yeah. -Well, I do love Kumkaew.

If I don't say that, she won't marry me.

-Gosh. -Hey, Pon.

Are you seriously going to marry her and live here in Donmaipa?

You sure you want to spend the rest of your life in this place?

Right.

It's not too late to change your mind.

I did all this to Kumkaew.

I must take responsibility.

I'm not going to abandon her and save myself.

Explain how you'll live here.

You don't even have a job.

You're going to live the life of a peasant?

You're better off being Bangkokian.

Not to mention that headman.

He'll never stop harassing you and Kumkaew.

Aren't you afraid?

-You can't live like that. -No way.

I'm not afraid.

For Kumkaew,

I'll do anything.

To steal my property.

Don't even think you'll live happily ever after stealing my man.

A witch like you is at best his plaything.

Kumkaew.

Mom.

Don't cry, baby.

It's probably the old sin

that destined you to walk down this path.

But I never loved him.

Be honest with yourself. I know it.

Mom.

You can lie to anyone, but not to yourself.

You two already violated the custom.

Just marry him and make it official.

Why did you want me to marry him so badly?

It's not like that. I worry for you, my dear.

I'm a single mother.

I can only do so much to protect you.

Without me, what would you do?

Cry no more, dear.

Wild orchid is not edible.

It has no trade value.

It's not for bartering.

It's for you.

You do love him, do you?

I don't.

Then, why do you keep the flower he gave you?

When he's in trouble, you care for him.

Don't be stubborn.

I had a husband once, you know.

What should I do, mother?

If you do love him, just accept his proposal.

But I'm afraid that...

someday...

love is going to fade away.

If it was you, what would you choose?

Between love that eventually ends in parting...

or just call it quits in the first place?

If it was me,

I would wholeheartedly choose love,

even if it ends in pain.

Even if eventually,

you had to lose dad?

But still, I have you as the fruit of our love.

One that blooms from your father's seed.

Kumkaew.

Be scared not of the future that is yet to arrive.

Who exactly slept with who last night?

How are you doing, Kumkaew?

I heard the city boy got you, right?

Auntie Aew!

Don't say what you don't know.

Geez, if he does love you,

he would have asked for your hands from your mom.

Don't be a single mother.

Kumkaew.

You and him violated the custom of this village.

The ancestors would be restless.

Our elders said it could cause misery to the whole village.

You'll bring us all to ruins.

Have that city boy propose to you.

Or else, you can't live here.

You and your mom must leave.

-All because of you. -Right.

-Am I right, guys? -Yes...

Get out.

Let's go. She'll probably end up a single mother.

What a disgrace.

No wonder bad things keep happening.

Kumkaew.

Stop right there, Kumkaew.

I know you hate and despise me.

I'll accept whatever you have to say.

Just please don't treat me like I'm nothing.

You are worth even less than dirt.

You already violated the tradition with me, Kumkaew.

Even if you don't want to marry me,

could you just please let me do my part as a man?

Let me take the responsibility, please?

No need.

I can look after myself.

Please, Kumkaew.

Marry me.

I love you, Kumkaew.

What do I have to do to prove it?

Even if you drop dead right here,

don't ever expect I'll change my mind.

I won't change my mind either.

Even if I have to wait forever,

I'll love you and only you, Kumkaew!

Kumkaew.

Everyone knew it now

that you lost yourself to Tossapol.

But that's not true, mother.

That's the only truth between you and him.

It's still not true.

True or not,

like anyone would care about that.

They believe what they want to.

You can't change their minds.

Tossapol came to see you.

Will you go to see him?

Kumkaew.

What if I tell you

that I met you even before I came to Donmaipa?

You won't believe it, right?

What if I tell you that the first time I met you at Dhevalai,

I knew that

you're the woman I've been waiting for all my life.

You still won't believe it, right?

All the time I've spent here,

I can only think of you.

I always wanted to see you.

Yet you won't believe it.

You don't have to believe all these.

Just one thing.

That I do love you, Kumkaew.

(Chanting mantra)

Give it up, Pim.

He's not your soulmate.

So much for your effort.

And now, Kumkaew made it all worthless.

Must be painful, isn't it?

Like I care for your opinion.

Now that we have the same enemy,

how about we team up?

For what?

Gosh. Getting rid of that witch, of course.

Unnecessary.

For someone like me, I just do it.

I don't beat around the bush while barking like a dog.

Lady!

That pale-faced witch just compared you to a dog!

I know, you witch!

Just wait and see then.

Slip up again,

I'll kick until you're dead, Pimporn!

Forgive me for violating your daughter, madam.

I'm a lone stranger from far away.

My mother already passed.

And I might as well have no father.

Nor do I have much wealth.

I can offer only a promise

that I will protect and look after Kumkaew forever.

I only ask of you

that you love Kumkaew.

Love her with all your heart.

Kumkaew is my dear heart.

I entrust her to you now.

Yes, madam.

Take care of her.

My dear Kumkaew.

However, you two love one another today,

I wish that your love will always remain the same.

May your love prosper. May it blossom.

If you would please, I'm so exhausted.

Good. Now move those bags here.

Thank goodness, I lived.

We're lucky to have survived that ordeal, sir.

It must have been the changing weather.

We managed to survive, thanks to the might of the Garuda.

Well, what's next? Naga?

You'll see soon enough.

Hey, you may kiss the bride already!

Yeah, right! Do it, man! We'll take photos!

Kiss her...

Are we there yet?

Almost there. Just over there.

We're almost there, sir.

Dad!

Pim!

Dad!

Dad.

-Good day, sir. -Good day.

Have you seen Pon?

Two and three.

Good. One more.

Two, three...

Come on. Chade, smile a bit.

-A monk said that... -Come on, abbot!

Just a smile wouldn't anger Buddha.

Here, Pon.

-But I'm the groom. -Yeah, and I'm your friend.

Do me a favour, will you?

I'm more important than you.

Not too close, Kit.

Good.

One, two, three.

-I'm watching you, man. -How's the photo?

-You got what it takes? -You'll see.

Come here if you want another.

Get closer, guys.

Two and three.

Let's act like...

Pon!

Father?

You insolent brat!

I expected you to study, but you're getting married?

Please don't hurt young master.

Let's be calm and talk.

I got nothing to talk about!

You will return to Bangkok and continue your studies.

I won't allow you to stray off again!

Kumkaew is now my wife, father.

If she's not coming, I won't either.

I will stay here with her.

How could you be so blinded by love?

I will stay of my own volition.

I love Kumkaew.

And I must take responsibility for what I have done.

Go back and finish your studies.

Then after that, I don't care if you get married or die!

-I'm not going! -And what about your studies?

I will quit!

You'll throw away your future for a woman?

Imbecile!

You won't understand.

You never loved anyone but yourself!

Even when mother was dying, you didn't even care!

Pon!

Master, the young master is still naive.

Please forgive him.

I'm an adult now, Auntie Im.

Having him is as good as having no father.

From now on,

my life will only have Kumkaew!

You think marriage is that trivial?

Let me see. Show me how long you two can last!

Young master...

I told you, mom.

City folks will never be serious to us.

Now that his father is here,

he'll have no choice but to go back.

You don't want him to go?

The sooner he leaves, the better.

You're kidding yourself.

Just tell him if you do love him.

If you don't want him to leave, tell him.

He's better off that way.

There's no future for him here.

A waste of time.

Kumkaew, Tossapol loves you.

He won't abandon you.

Mr. Boonsong, I thought you're dead.

How could you have survived?

I could barely believe it myself

that I'd have managed to survive.

What happened to you that day?

It's the snake!

-Help me! -Hey!

Get off me!

I survived, witch.

Still lucky nonetheless

that we both managed to survive a brush with death that day.

And you why did you come back here for?

I learned that my daughter Pim came here for a field study.

After losing contact with her,

the university was concerned.

And then, they called the parents.

Once I knew she had come to Donmaipa,

I volunteered to come here myself.

I have a score to settle.

Could it be that your old quarry is the Goddess Nakee?

If that is the case, maybe we can discuss it.

I saw only Jerdnapa just now.

What about your other friend, Ratthanawadee?

Didn't the three of you come together?

Rat is dead, father.

What? Ratthanawadee is dead?

She's dead.

She got possessed by an evil spirit.

And before she died, she kept rambling about Nakee.

That vile goddess again!

Goddess Nakee has three forms.

One is a crested albino snake.

The second form, an invisible enchanted form.

And lastly,

a typical female villager.

We suspected that it's Kumkaew!

Kumkaew?

The bride of Dr. Supat's son?

They are the same.

I'm confused.

Confounded and confused.

He's a scholar's son.

What was he thinking, making a snake his wife?

How could the goddess' minion get loose in the first place?

Aren't people here supposed to be worshipping her?

-Some people affronted her. -Yes.

Making her greatly displeased.

That's why she went on a rampage.

She took Ratthanawadee as one of her victims.

Gosh! She's a demon!

Can nothing be done at all?

That is rather difficult.

I'm going to vanquish that wicked goddess myself.

Look at me. I tried everything

and I was defeated at every turn.

Look at what she has done to me!

And what would you do?

The Garuda relic.

That's really a Garuda relic!

Astounding!

I am completely cured!

That's the power of the Garuda.

It can negate the goddess' hex.

From now on, we shall no longer live in her fear!

Doesn't matter what form she takes.

I'll eradicate her nonetheless!

You should return to Bangkok with your father.

No need to take responsibility for me.

I already made up my mind.

But your decision will make you lose everything.

Your future and your father.

My future is you, Kumkaew.

Sleep time.

No!

There. Your mattress.

What?

You're making me sleep outside your net?

If you can't, then don't sleep at all.

Sleep wherever else you want.

But not on my bed.

If you have the audacity,

you'll regret it.

Move.

Yes, dear. I'll gladly sleep there.

So aggressive.

Tossapol.

Tossapol.

Wake up. It's late now.

Can't I sleep a bit more?

I don't want to wake up at all.

You want to sleep until you die?

Be my guest.

I'm going to work.

Give it up, Pim. They're already married.

No.

I refuse to let it end like this.

She's not worthy of him at all.

But Tossapol loves her.

Jerd, you don't have to repeat that!

I just want you to accept the truth, Pim.

No way.

I'm taking Pon back. He's mine.

Pim!

Don't get so cocky.

Right now, you're just his fancy new toy.

He'll get tired of you eventually.

Then he'll dump you.

When that time comes...

I'll gladly dump him for you.

Pim...

I'll look forward to the day he ditches you, Kumkaew!

Let's go, Pim. Let's go.

Right now, you're just his fancy new toy.

He'll get tired of you eventually.

Then he'll dump you.

Tossapol.

Let go. Someone's going to see us.

I don't think it'll matter.

We're husband and wife now.

Who is your wife?

Let me help you.

These clothes are washed.

Sorry about that. I just wanted to help.

If you want to help, take the water home.

Okay.

Gather the water.

Okay.

Go.

Slow down, Kumkaew.

I can't catch up.

You can't even carry water?

Is every city man feeble like you?

I've never done this before.

If I walk fast, I'm going to spill the water.

If you can't even carry water, how are you going to feed yourself?

Go back to Bangkok.

Tossapol!

You okay? Are you hurt?

You care for me?

No.

More like I worry that I'll have one less water porter.

You don't have to do this anymore.

I'd rather do it myself.

Kumkaew.

I might be a terrible husband now.

Can't help you with anything.

But I'll try.

Someday, I'll become a better husband.

Why it wasn't me?

How am I inferior to her?

How about this?

If wiles won't do, maybe we have to be smart.

If not trickery, then sorcery.

What do you mean?

Ask Shaman Auam to put a love spell on him.

Sornklin, you idiot!

What could the shaman even do?

He can barely survive himself. What is he good for?

If Shaman Auam tells my father, I'll be the one in trouble!

I heard of a witchdoctor though.

He wields powerful magic.

The villagers worship him.

They even built a hermitage for him.

I say we should pay him a visit.

Witch doctor?

Where is he?

You all going to Nakh Nhee village?

You all serious about this?

Yeah. Me and Sornklin are going to see Chaba's dad.

We heard he's very sick. We might as well pay him a visit.

Yeah, she's right.

He is sick.

So...

can you let Lamjiak come with me?

Well, I still think for you three girls to travel is still dangerous.

Don't worry, Uncle Gore.

Chaba asked her relative there to send us a ferry.

A ferry? But still...

Dad.

Just three days and we'll be back.

Come on.

-Let her come with us. -Please, uncle?

-Please, uncle? -Please, uncle?

Okay, fine...

You're free to go.

Even if I were to try to stop you, you girls probably would go anyway.

Listen here. Take care of each other, okay?

And don't you ever take off the Pirod ring.

Yes, dad.

Tassanai went missing?

Yes. We tried to search for him, but to no avail.

He's been like this since we were studying.

An outdoorsman, he does whatever he pleases.

He doesn't care what others think.

But Tossapol saw him in the cave under the Dhevalai at the end of the village.

He might be mistaken.

Maybe what he saw wasn't a human?

-What? -You chicken.

Does everything have to be a ghost to you?

-I'm serious! -Shut it.

Why would he go down there?

Before he left,

he had been studying that stone inscription.

Marukkanakorn?

Where did you find this?

You've messed it all up!

Well, I guess it's still edible.

Drop that. I'll do it myself.

Go and light the stove.

Light stuff?

Stove.

Oh, light the stove. Sure thing.

Kumkaew.

I don't know how to light it.

Go and get some firewood under the house.

I'll teach you how.

You can't even do anything.

I'll do my best to learn.

So I can live with you happily.

I will be right back.

Don't come any closer! Go away!

Kumkaew, no!

Begone.

Begone!

Are you okay?

You can talk with a snake?

Once you ordered it, it just slithered away.

Like it was afraid of you.

Snakes are afraid of humans.

Just chase it away and it'll just go away.

But I tried to for a while.

I even poked it with a stick.

It just wouldn't give up.

Just getting some firewood and a snake almost got you.

You really are useless.

Useless...

Impotent.

You're saying I'm not manly enough?

Fine.

I'll show you what I got tonight.

Pervert!

That's not what I meant.

Your mind is too dirty.

I still love you though, Kumkaew.

I'm already thinking of having a little kid, too.

Don't!

Mom will see that.

That was nice.

Gosh.

Let's eat. Dig in.

Dig in?

Can you give this to father?

Thank you so much, dear.

You're a good wife.

Now I'm relieved.

What's there to be relieved of, auntie?

I'm relieved now that you won't starve to death, of course.

Auntie Im, how's my father?

Headman Yam already prepared a guest house for him and Mr. Boonsong.

Please take care of my father, auntie.

How about you help me take care of him, too?

He hates me to my guts.

I don't think he wants to see me.

All right, see you later.

Young master looks very happy with Kumkaew.

Saw them smile, laugh and tease each other.

What an adorable couple.

Would you like to have lunch, sir?

Looks pretty good. You made them yourself?

I didn't.

Young master and Kumkaew made them.

I'm not hungry yet.

If you'd please put them away.

But Kumkaew made them just for you, sir.

I said I'm not hungry yet. Please put them away.

If I may have some privacy, I need to work.

Well then, I'll leave them here.

Dad, coffee.

If I had known you'd come here,

I would have absolutely stopped you.

That Nakee goddess is a monster.

She made your legs like this.

And also killed Ratthanawadee.

And now Kumkaew, that minion witch,

also stole Pon from me!

And that's just her minion. She already took human form.

She has since become much more powerful.

I'd like to see this demi-snake temptress Kumkaew.

I wonder what she looks like.

I'll show you her mug.

Dad, you have to find a way to get rid of her.

I hate her!

She should just rot in the fiery pit!

Don't worry. The Garuda I brought with me

will make short work of them serpents.

Hey, Kumkaew.

I'm back in Donmaipa this time

to take revenge on that ghost snake.

You're finished! You ghost snake!

Gosh! The ritual...

-We're doomed! -A Nakee follower...

snatched my lover from me.
