Original subtitles

Go back to your life and forget about me.

Have you ever loved someone? Is it that easy to stop loving them?

I got close to you without realizing that

you would misinterpret my intention.

You aren't allowed upstairs.

Mai…

Mai is back as a volunteer lawyer?

I'd love it if you would open your heart to me.

Will you be my girlfriend?

I finally saw you after seven years.

But you have that inspector by your side.

That hurts like hell.

Fah.

Watch it, you brat. I'm your mom.

Gosh! She made a mess on my bed.

You did this again.

When will you learn your lesson?

What's the big deal?

This is someone's life we're talking about.

When will you stop doing this?

Even if I don't do it for her,

she'll have someone else do it.

-Mom! -What?

I called you here so you can take her to see a doctor,

not for you to stand here and lecture me.

Or do you want her to die here?

That's fine by me.

Little girl.

Can you hear me, little girl?

-Little girl. -"Little girl."

Come help her!

Why should I? That's your job.

Don't you work at the foundation? You should help her.

Get up slowly, okay?

Do an ultrasound.

Page an obstetrician.

Did you turn your phone off, Mom?

Hey. Fah.

I thought it was someone else. How did you get in?

-I broke in. -Are you crazy?

I would have to get the door fixed.

Do you know that girl almost died?

She's still unconscious.

How could you do it?

She asked me to do it.

-How could I refuse? -Of course you could.

You have a job and a salary.

Yet you choose to make easy money without caring who you hurt.

Just like how you never cared for me.

Who said I didn't care?

If it weren't for me,

you would've died long ago.

You wouldn't be standing here yelling at me.

I worked my butt off to provide for you.

You didn't provide for me.

Of course I did.

I raised you for almost ten years.

Do you think you're a saint

now that you're working for the foundation?

Don't forget.

Isn't it because of you

that I'm in this position?

You brat!

All right.

Then let us pay for what we did together today.

What will you do?

I already called the police.

They're probably on their way here.

Fah, did you call the police on me?

If you don't escape in time, they will put you in jail.

You bitch. Let me go.

I'm screwed.

You little brat.

I'll make you pay for this.

-Here you go. -All right.

-Thank you. -Well done.

All right. Let's drink to our new attorney.

Good job! Cheers!

-Cheers! -Hooray!

Congratulations on getting your license on your first try.

I had to take the exam three times. Very good job, Nicha.

Mai tutored me.

I wouldn't be able to do it without his help.

The exam was so hard.

Mai is like Superman.

He got his license and passed the bar in one year.

How did you do it?

It's incredible.

We should celebrate.

How about we go get drinks tonight?

So it's a no.

No need to give me that look.

Since you got your license, what kind of cases do you want to work on?

I'll arrange it for you.

I don't know yet, Ek.

I can't decide right now.

What about you, Mai?

I'll leave it up to you. But I'd like to work on criminal cases.

Once I have enough experience, I want to become a prosecutor.

Why a prosecutor?

I want to help people get justice.

I want to do what I can.

Come on, man.

You're handsome, smart, and capable.

You're outshining us in everything.

I really admire you for having such a clear purpose.

You make me feel like a slacker.

You wouldn't be able to get your license if you were a slacker.

Hey, Chol. Are you heading home?

There's nothing for me to do, so why stay?

Hello.

That's right. I'm Chenchanok's father. What's the matter?

-Chol! -Chol!

Chol.

Don't worry, Nicha. Chol and I are at the hospital.

I'm Chenchanok's father. How is my daughter?

-I'll call you later. -The patient is out of danger.

But you can't see her yet since she's still very weak.

Can I have a look?

I just want to have a look at her.

Sure. This way, sir.

Go ahead. I'll wait around here.

Thank you so much for driving me here.

What a coincidence.

So…

What are you doing here?

Are you sick or are you visiting someone?

Neither.

I'm here with a colleague.

What about you?

I'm visiting someone.

I'll see you later. I need to check on my colleague.

Chol!

Chol, don't!

Mai, let me go!

-Let go of me! Let go! -Chol.

Mai, let me go!

Do you want to get your wound dressed?

No.

Thank you.

Just don't hurt yourself again.

It's my life.

I can do what I want. It's none of your business.

You won't die from hurting yourself here.

You're releasing your anger.

If that's what you want to do,

think of your sick daughter.

I mean no offense.

I don't know what happened to you.

I don't know what happened to the guy

who Ek said was the best at the firm.

But what I know is that

your daughter needs you the most right now.

You shouldn't hurt yourself again.

You've done that enough.

You won't understand.

You can never understand what happened to my life.

It's a wretched life.

What should I do?

Do you want to come with me?

Let me hold the umbrella.

I think it's been seven years since we last saw each other.

Yes. Something like that.

You've come so far.

You finished school and now you're a lawyer.

I wanted to have a good life.

Higher education helped me get to where I want to be.

Why are you smiling?

I'm smiling because you're the same person you always were.

You're determined and you manage to get what you want.

No.

I don't get everything I want.

What do you mean?

Just things in general.

We can't always get everything we want.

I'll take off now.

Fon.

Your umbrella.

You can hold on to it. In case it rains again.

I'll give it back next time we meet.

Where are you going so early?

I thought you'd sleep in on your day off.

You'll just nag me if I sleep in.

You're a grownup and you've graduated.

You even got a lawyer's license.

I have nothing to nag about.

Come on, Dad.

You can still nag me. You haven't done it for years.

I get lonely.

If you're lonely, you should find yourself a boyfriend.

I'm not against it anymore.

I actually want you to have one.

You just want me out of the house.

You can't get rid of me that easily.

See you later.

How would I know what she likes?

She's two years old.

Why don't you buy it yourself?

Do you think I like kids that much?

I like kids.

I love them.

I love kids more than anything.

I'll call you later.

Are you buying toys for your cousins?

Do you need my help? I'm great at picking toys for kids.

No, thank you.

Wait, miss.

Miss. Hey, miss.

Why?

I look so handsome.

Why was she so scared of me?

Fon.

Are you sure you can go with Mai?

I'm sure.

We met at the hospital yesterday and we talked.

Did you meet Mai yesterday?

Yes. We ran into each other.

I guess you can't run from him forever

since you have to work together.

I'm really okay. Don't worry about me.

I'll get going now.

Good luck.

Mhai.

You're still here, Rey?

What's the beef between Fon and Mai?

What?

I mean, what happened between them?

It's none of your business.

Get back to work.

My firm let me use the car today.

Get in.

We're half an hour early.

Do you want to go in now or wait?

I guess we can wait in the car.

Mai.

Yes?

I'm uncomfortable.

Are you uncomfortable with me?

Yes.

I mean, no.

I'm uncomfortable because

we have nothing to talk about.

What should we talk about?

I don't know.

What?

Just forget it.

Fon.

You should be glad that I'm like this.

I'm not chasing after you and making you uncomfortable.

I only came back to the foundation to repay my debt.

Does hearing that make you more comfortable with me?

No.

That's too bad.

Think what you will then. I don't know how to please you.

How have you been all this time?

Did you have a hard life?

How did you get through it?

I want to thank you

for living a good life.

I've been waiting for the chance to tell you I'm sorry.

I want to tell you

that I'm really sorry for what I said to you that day.

I didn't mean to say it, but…

I didn't know what else to say.

About everything that happened,

it wasn't your fault at all.

It was my fault for letting you into my life.

I think we should go in now.

That's good. Now I won't have to worry anymore.

-Pick one. -Which one do you want?

-This one? Pick one. -You want this one?

-You want a bag? -You want the pink one?

Here you go.

-You want this one too? -It's a tough choice.

Nicha.

-Take the knife, Rey. -Okay.

Call an ambulance.

-Get me a clean cloth. -Okay.

-We're here, Nicha. -My gosh.

Nicha, can you hear me?

Will Fon come back here?

I don't know if she'll make it.

She has an urgent case, so she's out with our new volunteer lawyer.

Do you have a volunteer lawyer now?

Goodness. I wonder who that is.

They beat me to the punch. I'm not ready to do that yet.

It's more than enough that you come to visit us.

How long has it been since we last saw each other?

Two years.

But I see Fon often.

We meet up outside the foundation.

I see that you really love Fon.

She's the best.

Hello. What's up, Nicha?

I can talk. I'm done with the case. I'm about to head back.

Are you at the foundation?

Okay. I'll see you soon.

All right.

Is someone waiting for you?

It's just a girl I know.

She's visiting the foundation.

Nicha.

Fon.

I missed you.

I heard you went out with a volunteer lawyer.

Why are you back alone?

He dropped me off at the front and left.

I see.

I bought you snacks. Let's go eat.

-You bought me snacks? -That's right. Here.

-You bought me things again. -Here you go.

Hello, ma'am.

Mai.

Mai.

God bless you, dear.

Thank you so much for not forgetting me.

How could I ever forget you? You're like a mother to me.

Mom, you're smiling from ear to ear.

Watch it, Bee. I can still smack you.

Since Mai's here, let's go eat something delicious tonight.

Gosh. Butt out, Bell. Mai's going out with me tonight.

Come on. I want to come too.

Mai, can I come with you?

Sure. You should come too, ma'am.

All right. Can we go after the shop's closed?

Okay.

You heard him, Bee.

Fine.

I'll go get dressed.

Goodness.

My sister keeps acting like a child.

Give Bell a break.

She's more mature than you think.

-Bell is mature? -That's right.

She really is.

What makes you think she's mature?

Your sister is actually a very intelligent girl.

How so?

What are you looking at me for?

I know about all the despicable things you do.

What do you mean by that, you brat?

I taught you everything.

Are you going to betray me?

You only taught me bad things.

I can never do what you want me to do.

You can be a scumbag all by yourself.

Mai, you asshole!

Get out of here! Get lost!

If you won't go, I'll tell the boss

to put your ass in jail.

Do you think I don't know what you did?

You stole things from here and sold them for money.

You also took outside jobs repairing air conditioners

for people in your flat.

Come on. Help me stop them.

Let me go! Let go!

Let go of me!

Mai! I'll call the cops on you!

You tried to kill me. Everyone here saw it.

-Hey! -Grab him!

I'll tell the boss what you did.

You jackass! Let's go!

Well? Will you tell me or not?

After I moved out of your house,

I was wasting my life away.

I barely had a future.

Then Bell found me one day.

Mai!

I'll tell Mom and Bee that I found you.

Bell, leave me alone. You should go.

Why?

Just go. Don't come back and keep this to yourself.

I don't want to see anyone.

Why not?

Please, Bell. Leave me alone.

But I mean well.

Bee has been looking for you since you moved out.

Why do you not want anyone to know where you are?

I have my reasons.

You're a kid. You won't understand.

How am I a kid? I'm in high school now.

You don't know what real life is like.

My life isn't some kind of soap opera

you can pry into to indulge your curiosity.

You've changed, Mai.

To be honest,

you used to be someone I looked up to.

I don't know what caused you to change.

But you've changed for the worse.

Soon you'll have no one left in your life.

In my eyes,

you've lost your worth.

That's your sister for you.

She helped me come to my senses.

Bell is a badass.

She's even more mature than you and me.

Well, I'm glad anyway

to have a good friend like you back.

By the way,

I have something to tell you.

What is it?

Today, I finally met my dream girl.

Another one?

What do you mean? I've never felt this way about anyone.

I'm sick of hearing it.

Hey, Mai.

Mai, I'm serious. Come on.

Come back. Just listen to me.

She's really cute, man.

PORK TOM YUM NOODLE SOUP

PORK TOM YUM NOODLE SOUP

Thank you.

Why did you wreck my shop?

Why did you wreck my shop?

Why?

Why did you destroy that man's property?

Do you want to be put in jail?

So will you put me in jail?

Of course! You bet I will.

The victim filed a complaint against you.

You're done for.

Officer! Chet!

Hello.

Why did you do this?

I've told you not to do it.

Why did you cause trouble for everyone?

Officer, I'm really sorry

for Chet's behavior.

I'd like to talk to the victim and pay for all the damages.

Boy, you don't know how lucky you are

getting to live with Ms. Duan.

She's such a generous and kind-hearted woman.

Officer, please. You're exaggerating.

I'm not, ma'am. When I go on patrol in the morning,

I always see you give alms to the monks every day.

You're making me blush.

It's not just the monks. I also give food to people.

So let me know if you officers would like to eat something.

I'll bring it for you next time.

It brings great merit to be generous towards good people like you.

Do you see?

You've been given an opportunity to have a better life.

Ma'am, what's your relationship with the offender?

I'm his caretaker, Inspector.

Chet has always been emotionally unstable even before I took him in.

I'd like to ask you to show him some kindness

and sympathy just like I do towards him.

You're the boy's caretaker?

That's right. Chet's parents are both dead.

Does Chet also work for you?

Well, he doesn't have to do much.

He helps out with the chores around the house.

But I make sure he's taken care of and I also give him money to spend.

POL.MAJ. SUPHANUT TANABUMRUNGRUANG

Inspector, please show Chet some kindness.

He's a really pitiful boy.

If the station is in need of something,

I'll be happy to make a donation.

I consider myself a philanthropist.

Does the plaintiff's co-counsel have any questions?

On the night of July 13,

you said you were at home.

Is that correct?

That's right.

-Were you at home all night? -I was.

But an eyewitness saw you leave the house to attack the victim that night.

That's not true.

I've been framed. I didn't do it.

They are in on it together.

Are you denying that you assaulted the victim?

I am.

No further questions.

Chol.

MATERIAL EVIDENCE

I have additional questions, Your Honor.

Is it relevant to the case?

It is of relevance to the case, Your Honor.

Let us hear it then.

What's your question about?

It's about the weapon that the defendant used to commit the crime.

You may proceed.

Do you see this knife?

I've never seen it.

Look at the picture carefully.

Do you remember this knife?

I've never seen it.

This knife was used to assault the victim on the night of July 13.

I don't know. I told you I've never seen it before.

But the forensic examination results show that your fingerprints and DNA

are on this knife…

according to these exams.

Are the facts correct?

Get in here, you brat.

How dare you, Chet?

Did you think doing this would help get you out of here?

Do you know

how much I had to pay for the damage you caused?

You had the nerve to run to the police for help.

Did you think it would work?

You thought wrong.

I'm close friends with all the police at the station.

You'll never be able to run away from me, Chet.

I won't do it again, ma'am.

Do you know what I think?

I think you did what you did because you have too much energy.

You have some nerves.

I think…

I'll make you unable to walk.

-I'm scared. -So you don't misbehave again.

Please don't hurt me!

I'm sorry! Please forgive me!

You wouldn't dare do it in the first place if you knew it was wrong.

I'm scared.

You two. He dares disrespect me.

Get over here and beat him until I tell you to stop.

Beat him!

I'm sorry!

Please forgive me!

-Have a seat. -Thank you.

I'm sorry for calling you here.

But I want you to take a look at something.

I think this case is strange, so I'd like your opinion.

Why did he act like he wanted to get caught?

You're right. It's really strange.

Here.

He's a 17-year-old orphan.

He has bruises on his body.

His caretaker said that he hurt himself

and that he has mental issues.

That's possible.

How is the caretaker related to the boy?

They're not related.

It seems that she's a charitable woman who likes to help others.

She's a banquet service provider.

Thank you, Mai. I know it's a lot of work.

It's fine. I'm on it.

Hey, Fon. I thought you left.

I left my stuff here, so I came back for it.

Is something wrong?

Mhai.

I have a suspicious case.

There's a teenager who might've been abused.

I'm not sure if we should get involved.

Tell me the details.

Can I listen too?

I might be able to help.

It's fine if you don't want help.

I don't mind.

Three heads are better than two.

So what happened?

Hey. Get up.

Here. Madam said you've been lazing around, so this is all you get.

The rice's gone bad.

So? You can't work right now, so you don't get to eat good food.

Just eat your rice.

KANYAMIT FOUNDATION

I'll look into the case you told me about.

It's fine.

You already have tons of work from working two jobs.

I'll look into it myself.

You and Mhai are women. It's dangerous.

It's safer if I go.

I've been doing this for over ten years.

I know what's safe and what's dangerous.

It'd be bad if something went wrong,

especially since I know about the case.

Hey.

Are you jinxing me?

I'm not jinxing you.

But this job is too risky for women.

Just come with me then if you're so worried.

But…

maybe we shouldn't.

Don't overthink it. It's just work.

This is it.

This is the house where the boy lives.

We'll tell them we are brother and sister, all right?

Let me do the talking.

Why are you smiling?

I'm the foundation's volunteer lawyer.

I'm here to do my job.

I'm not here as your friend.

Hey.

Move it, will you? You're all so sluggish.

You all eat like horses.

Yet you work like sloths.

Get on with it.

Hello.

Are you here for someone?

-I'm here to ask about-- -Hello.

Do you provide a Chinese banquet service?

That's right.

So what's the occasion for the banquet?

My brother is planning to ordain.

So I'd like to host a banquet that has about 50 tables.

Have a look at our menu then.

All right.

My parents are very particular when it comes to food.

Are there any dishes that we can try?

Do you want to try the food?

I normally don't let anyone try the food since our clients trust in our cooking.

Most of our clients are referred to us by word of mouth.

But after the ordination,

my brother is getting married.

If we like the food, we'll hire you to cater the wedding as well.

We're actually not siblings.

She's embarrassed to be with a younger guy.

We'll hire you if we like the food.

Well, please come with me to the kitchen then.

This is my kitchen.

Everything here is clean and sanitary.

Can you make crispy fish maw salad and fish maw soup for the clients to try?

Yes, ma'am.

It will be a while before the food is ready.

Would you like to wait outside?

Please come with me.

That's all right. We can wait here.

I'd like to watch the cook prepare the food.

Is that so?

You don't want to sit down?

We'll be fine.

Where's the bathroom?

It's to the left just outside the kitchen.

Thank you.

Who's in there? Is it Chet?

Who are you?

I'm a lawyer. I'm here to help Chet.

Are you Chet?

I'm Chet.

Please help me.

They locked me up in here.

I want to get out of here.

I don't want to die.

Listen to me, Chet.

I'll get the police to help you.

But can you write me a message to confirm your story

that you've been abused and imprisoned?

Here, Chet.

I don't know how to write.

-Dech! -Yes, ma'am.

-What is it? -Dech.

Hurry and go look. There's someone in the back.

-I'm on it. -Hurry.

Show the police my blood.

So they will come and help me.

This isn't enough, Chet.

Sir, where have you been?

What's the matter?

I went to check the bathroom, but you weren't there.

I liked your garden, so I went to have a look.

I even saw you pass by.

Is something wrong?

No. Everything's fine.

I was just worried.

There's a dog here.

It's a ferocious dog, so you might get bitten.

You shouldn't wander around.

I apologize.

It's all right.

It's really good.

Try it, Mai.

This also tastes nice.

Shall we sign a catering contract then?

-We want-- -We want our parents to try the food too.

What? You won't sign the contract, but you want to take the food home?

Don't worry.

I'll pay for these two dishes.

But we need time to think before we make a decision.

This is good, Mai. Try it.

Their food is actually quite tasty.

Too bad you had to pay for it, Fon.

Mai paid for it.

How could you let Mai pay?

It's fine. Think of it as my treat for you and Rey.

You're so sweet, Mai.

So did you find anything?

Just a bloodstained piece of paper.

The police will need more evidence to get a search warrant.

I asked around the neighborhood about that house and got nothing.

Just that a lot of teenagers live there.

I think we need to gather more information.

I got a number from someone who goes there often.

We can try calling them.

Seeing us now makes me think back to many years ago.

I never thought you would become our lawyer.

You're right, Mhai.

I'm so happy that you're here to help us, Mai.

From now on, it will be easier for us to handle complicated stuff

like lawsuits and all the legal cases.

Because we have a lawyer like Mai to help us.

Well, I'll call the person who might give us a lead.

What a fussy bunch.

They made me cook for them and left. What a waste of time.

Hey, has Chet gone back to work?

Not yet, ma'am. He's still feverish.

What a wuss.

Give me that.

Get up and get to work. Stop lazing around.

I'm not feeling well, ma'am.

That's your problem, not mine.

But don't be a freeloader.

You're not here to be a watchdog.

I keep you here so you can work for me. Get up.

Will you get up?

-Get up! -Ma'am!

Pae ran away again.

Does he dare to cross me?

Did he not learn his lesson?

We'll see about that.

That's right. I visit that house regularly.

What do you do again?

I'm an electrician.

Madam always calls me in to fix things.

She may have lots of boys there, but all of them are uneducated.

That's why Chet said he didn't know how to write.

Of course not.

Madam took those homeless boys in.

But none of them get to go to school.

So she uses this as leverage to keep the boys there.

Because they're illiterate.

I sometimes see her give the boys a beating.

I can barely watch. I feel bad for them.

So the boys want to escape.

Officer, have you found my boy?

Right.

Please wait a moment.

I was notified that he's with the police now.

They're bringing him to the station.

-There he is. -Why did you arrest me? Let me go.

Pae, give me back my gold.

Gold? I didn't take it.

Stop lying!

I forgave you every time you stole from me.

But let me tell you. I won't forgive you this time.

Officer.

This boy is a thief.

He's a threat to society.

He needs to be locked up.

No way. I didn't steal from you. It wasn't me.

We'll lock you up.

-That will teach you a lesson. Come here. -No!

Come with me.

Every time the boys run away,

she manages to bring them back.

Sometimes she tells the police the boys stole from her.

But those boys are uneducated.

They don't know what to do, so they end up in a detention center.

Is there any way we can help Chet?

It will be difficult.

Madam portrays herself as a kind and generous person.

But what do I know? You're a lawyer.

You're from the foundation.

You may be able to help the boys.

I'd like you to help them. I feel bad for them.

That serves Pae right.

Doesn't he know that a good person like me

can do no wrong in others' eyes?

How will you get home?

I'll probably take a cab.

I'll give you a ride. You shouldn't take a cab alone.

Colleagues can give each other rides, right?

Thank you.

You don't mind riding with a poor lawyer, right?

Why would I mind?

I was just wondering.

-Are you ready? -Yes.

Mai, are you stopping to get something?

Food.

What? Aren't you full from earlier?

I am.

The food is for you.

Why are you buying me food?

You haven't eaten anything, not even a single bite.

I'm not hungry.

Are you sure?

You're not hungry?

I'm only eating because you ordered so much.

To wash the food down.

Would you let yourself go hungry if I didn't take you to eat?

I have snacks in my room.

I won't let myself starve.

You're abusing yourself.

Why do you care about me?

Aren't you mad at me?

It'd be too petty of me not to care for my colleague.

Thank you for the ride.

You should go home.

Fon.

Don't worry about Chet.

I'll find a way to help him.

I'll try to help him as well.

Wait.

See you tomorrow.

All right. I'll head in now.

Get home safe.

Okay. Thank you.

Would you let yourself go hungry if I didn't take you to eat?

I have snacks in my room.

I won't let myself starve.

You're abusing yourself.

Why do you care about me?

Aren't you mad at me?

You cacti have it easy, you know?

Today, I met an orphan who has even worse teenage years than me.

His name is Chet.

Why are you always in my mind?

How have you been all this time?

How did you get through it?

I want to tell you

that I'm really sorry for what I said to you that day.

Is Chol telling on you?

He keeps looking at you.

It's probably nothing.

You can't trust him.

He's a bit nuts these days. He's not his old self.

Thank you.

What's up, Ek?

I want you to take this case.

This is…

Why did you give it to me?

Chol said you're ready.

And you're familiar with the case.

-Chol. -What's up?

Why do you think I can take on such an important case?

You're ready.

But this is a big case.

Only because there's a lot of money involved.

It's just another case.

You have good legal knowledge and you're thorough.

You're quick-witted and trustworthy.

You have all the qualities that a good lawyer should have.

You only lack experience.

And this will be the most important experience for you.

Thank you, Chol.

Believe in yourself.

Like how I believe in you.

Yes, Chol.

I'll believe you when I see that there's nothing on your phone.

You.

-Stop right there! -Fon!

You can't do this. Let her go.

Butt out!

Fon.

Mai?

I don't want Mai to know about my past.

Can you not tell him about it?

I already called your personal chauffeur here.

Personal chauffeur?

That's right.

Let me give you a ride.
