Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:14,147 --> 00:00:16,683
[Jade] Jade Li monologue,
take six.
2
00:00:19,819 --> 00:00:22,655
I said I would never make
a big deal out of being Chinese.
3
00:00:22,722 --> 00:00:25,325
I don't want to make
a big deal out of it.
4
00:00:25,392 --> 00:00:27,727
I mean, that kind of thing
isn't exactly encouraged.
5
00:00:27,794 --> 00:00:30,563
But I wanted
to tell you about my family,
6
00:00:30,630 --> 00:00:33,800
and, uh, they're very Chinese,
if you know what I mean.
7
00:00:33,867 --> 00:00:37,270
But, for the moment, just forget
that they're a Chinese family.
8
00:00:37,337 --> 00:00:39,105
Just think of them
as any old family,
9
00:00:39,172 --> 00:00:41,441
you know, any old,
you know, white family.
10
00:00:41,508 --> 00:00:42,776
Although, you could probably
11
00:00:42,842 --> 00:00:44,878
just turn on a TV set
and see that.
12
00:00:46,179 --> 00:00:49,783
I grew up wondering why we
could never be the Brady Bunch.
13
00:00:49,849 --> 00:00:51,484
[speaking Cantonese]
14
00:00:53,787 --> 00:00:56,256
The bride's mother usually
takes over the arrangements.
15
00:00:56,322 --> 00:01:00,193
You know, I read a fact
that most women over 22,
16
00:01:00,260 --> 00:01:02,362
if they're not married,
they never will be.
17
00:01:02,429 --> 00:01:04,230
[Jade] What? No way.
18
00:01:05,198 --> 00:01:06,733
-[Mrs. Li speaking Cantonese]
-What?!
19
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,470
-I just said it was a fact...
-[Jade] I think she's 22.
20
00:01:11,671 --> 00:01:14,040
-Jade, help.
-Dad, the word is "fact,"
21
00:01:14,107 --> 00:01:16,109
not the other word.
22
00:01:19,245 --> 00:01:21,815
[Mr. Li speaking Cantonese]
23
00:01:21,881 --> 00:01:25,085
OK, OK. It is known that--
24
00:01:25,151 --> 00:01:26,686
[Jade] All right. We got it.
25
00:01:32,325 --> 00:01:33,893
[Pearl] Yeah, Jade?
26
00:01:33,960 --> 00:01:36,196
No, Mom, I'm not falling for it.
27
00:01:41,267 --> 00:01:44,671
Well, "Brady Bunch"
never needed subtitles.
28
00:01:44,737 --> 00:01:45,772
[music playing]
29
00:01:45,839 --> 00:01:47,874
[tool clattering]
30
00:01:57,851 --> 00:01:59,886
[sizzling and scraping]
31
00:02:11,064 --> 00:02:13,733
[chatter in Cantonese]
32
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:15,368
[doorbell rings]
33
00:02:33,153 --> 00:02:34,220
[chatter continues]
34
00:02:34,287 --> 00:02:35,955
[doorbell rings]
35
00:02:49,302 --> 00:02:51,237
[doorbell rings]
36
00:03:19,198 --> 00:03:21,100
[Mrs. Li speaking Cantonese]
37
00:03:21,167 --> 00:03:22,335
[woman speaking Cantonese]
38
00:03:22,402 --> 00:03:25,171
[overlapping chatter]
39
00:03:25,238 --> 00:03:27,473
[music playing]
40
00:03:38,318 --> 00:03:39,852
[woman speaking Cantonese]
41
00:03:50,430 --> 00:03:52,432
[Jade laughs] Fine, thank you.
42
00:03:52,498 --> 00:03:55,535
I have my first big audition
for a movie next week.
43
00:03:56,569 --> 00:03:58,571
She has real talent,
44
00:03:58,638 --> 00:04:01,307
going to be a star.
45
00:04:03,977 --> 00:04:06,012
[laughing]
46
00:04:10,183 --> 00:04:11,651
[Pearl] Ready?
47
00:04:11,718 --> 00:04:13,119
Ready.
48
00:04:13,186 --> 00:04:15,755
There are these two peanuts
walking down the street,
49
00:04:15,822 --> 00:04:18,691
and one of them got a-salted.
50
00:04:18,758 --> 00:04:20,693
-Ouch.
-Do you get it?
51
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:23,263
-[oil sizzling]
-[woman laughs]
52
00:04:23,329 --> 00:04:25,598
[Jade] Uh, yeah, I get it.
53
00:04:26,432 --> 00:04:27,767
You really get it?
54
00:04:27,834 --> 00:04:31,204
-[girl clucking]
-Yeah, I really get it, OK?
55
00:04:31,270 --> 00:04:32,205
[shrieks]
56
00:04:32,272 --> 00:04:33,840
[baby cooing]
57
00:04:37,543 --> 00:04:38,645
[man] Hi, Auntie Mar.
58
00:04:38,711 --> 00:04:41,447
You guys started
without me. Hey.
59
00:04:43,016 --> 00:04:44,584
Do you know the Li family?
60
00:04:44,651 --> 00:04:48,087
I believe I've only met Mrs. Li
at your house, Auntie.
61
00:04:49,522 --> 00:04:51,257
[Mrs. Mar] May I present Mr. Li
62
00:04:51,324 --> 00:04:53,760
and his beautiful daughter,
Jade.
63
00:05:02,068 --> 00:05:04,437
[speaking Cantonese]
64
00:05:04,504 --> 00:05:06,339
-I'm Jade.
-Hi.
65
00:05:06,406 --> 00:05:07,640
I'm Pearl.
66
00:05:08,741 --> 00:05:10,576
Uh, in a minute.
I'll give you a chance
67
00:05:10,643 --> 00:05:12,111
to talk behind my back.
68
00:05:16,949 --> 00:05:18,985
Goochi goochi goo.
69
00:05:35,501 --> 00:05:37,103
He's away on business.
70
00:05:45,978 --> 00:05:48,181
[baby crying]
71
00:05:48,247 --> 00:05:49,816
He's cute.
72
00:05:49,882 --> 00:05:50,683
[chuckles]
73
00:05:50,750 --> 00:05:52,418
Aren't you a bit young?
74
00:05:52,485 --> 00:05:54,187
Relax. He's yours.
75
00:05:54,253 --> 00:05:57,590
Just one of 50 guys Auntie Mar
will introduce to you.
76
00:05:57,657 --> 00:05:59,992
Get used to it.
You're that marrying age.
77
00:06:00,059 --> 00:06:01,527
Oh, shut up.
78
00:06:01,594 --> 00:06:03,830
[birds chirping]
79
00:06:07,967 --> 00:06:11,037
[Southern accent]
I was naive then.
80
00:06:12,438 --> 00:06:13,740
[waves crashing]
81
00:06:13,806 --> 00:06:16,042
-Yes...
-[seabirds calling]
82
00:06:16,109 --> 00:06:18,111
I can see that now.
83
00:06:19,145 --> 00:06:21,748
But I will excuse myself.
84
00:06:22,515 --> 00:06:25,184
Yes, I will excuse myself
85
00:06:25,251 --> 00:06:29,055
by saying I was only 17...
86
00:06:29,956 --> 00:06:33,025
barely a pup
in the world of dogs.
87
00:06:34,927 --> 00:06:36,462
He was so...
88
00:06:37,330 --> 00:06:41,601
He was so kind and charming
89
00:06:41,667 --> 00:06:43,803
that, when love struck...
90
00:06:45,438 --> 00:06:49,876
that, when love struck,
I fell into a deep sleep...
91
00:06:50,777 --> 00:06:54,714
and I dreamt
this beautiful dream.
92
00:06:57,383 --> 00:06:58,618
But then, one day, I woke up.
93
00:06:58,684 --> 00:07:01,287
[Pearl] Jade, dinner's ready.
94
00:07:01,354 --> 00:07:06,259
I woke up and found myself
in the arms of a stranger.
95
00:07:06,325 --> 00:07:08,694
[Pearl] I know you're up there!
96
00:07:10,596 --> 00:07:13,699
OK. Shut up. I'm coming.
97
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,302
-[sighs]
-Jade, it's your turn
98
00:07:16,369 --> 00:07:18,104
-to set the table!
-OK! I'm coming!
99
00:07:18,171 --> 00:07:19,605
You don't have to yell!
100
00:07:22,842 --> 00:07:24,510
I said I was coming.
101
00:07:24,577 --> 00:07:27,046
Winston came by
the school today.
102
00:07:28,214 --> 00:07:29,215
What is it?
103
00:07:29,282 --> 00:07:30,716
He's moving.
104
00:07:30,783 --> 00:07:33,619
He wanted to give you and Mom
his new number.
105
00:07:33,686 --> 00:07:35,254
Well, is he gonna visit?
106
00:07:35,321 --> 00:07:36,556
Nope.
107
00:07:54,207 --> 00:07:55,241
Rehearsing.
108
00:08:03,216 --> 00:08:04,517
[Jade] Wah?
109
00:08:05,284 --> 00:08:07,320
Hey, a new TV!
110
00:08:07,386 --> 00:08:11,390
No! Only when your uncle comes
shall we turn that on.
111
00:08:11,457 --> 00:08:13,559
[So Yee] Sit. Watch.
112
00:08:14,327 --> 00:08:15,928
[woman] And there you have it.
113
00:08:15,995 --> 00:08:19,298
Unfortunately, incarcerating
eight teenage boys for a...
114
00:08:24,537 --> 00:08:25,838
...Provincial Courts,
115
00:08:25,905 --> 00:08:28,174
this is Linda Taylor Wong
for Channel Four.
116
00:08:37,917 --> 00:08:39,452
Yes, Mom. Thanks, Mom.
117
00:08:39,518 --> 00:08:42,088
Think I'll go
steal her job next week.
118
00:08:45,391 --> 00:08:46,893
[Quo] Hah-ya.
119
00:08:57,270 --> 00:08:59,205
[woman] I'll read
all the other lines.
120
00:08:59,272 --> 00:09:00,206
[Jade] All right.
121
00:09:00,273 --> 00:09:01,207
And...
122
00:09:01,274 --> 00:09:02,575
action!
123
00:09:02,642 --> 00:09:04,944
"I'd like a burger,
hold the ketchup,
124
00:09:05,011 --> 00:09:07,747
and a side of fries and a Pepsi.
What do you want?
125
00:09:07,813 --> 00:09:09,248
I'll have a spinach salad.
126
00:09:09,315 --> 00:09:10,983
Ann, come on. You've
gotta eat more than that."
127
00:09:11,050 --> 00:09:13,185
Anything to drink with that?
128
00:09:13,252 --> 00:09:15,054
"Yeah, I'll have
a chocolate milkshake.
129
00:09:15,121 --> 00:09:17,657
Come on, honey. Have
something to drink, at least.
130
00:09:17,723 --> 00:09:19,225
I'll have a Diet Pepsi."
131
00:09:19,292 --> 00:09:21,460
Would you like gravy
with your fries, sir?
132
00:09:21,527 --> 00:09:23,029
"Yeah, gravy would be good."
133
00:09:23,095 --> 00:09:24,964
And...
134
00:09:25,031 --> 00:09:26,032
cut.
135
00:09:26,098 --> 00:09:27,366
[camera whirs]
136
00:09:28,501 --> 00:09:30,903
Nice. Very, very nice.
137
00:09:35,608 --> 00:09:37,677
-So it's Jade, is it?
-Yes.
138
00:09:37,743 --> 00:09:40,146
Why don't we try
something different this time,
139
00:09:40,212 --> 00:09:42,148
something with a...
140
00:09:42,214 --> 00:09:43,683
bit of swing.
141
00:09:43,749 --> 00:09:44,784
Sure.
142
00:09:44,850 --> 00:09:47,653
Good. OK, try it with an accent.
143
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,956
[French accent]
Uh, what kind of accent
144
00:09:50,022 --> 00:09:52,725
do you want me to do?
A Parisian accent?
145
00:09:57,229 --> 00:09:58,397
[clears throat]
146
00:09:58,464 --> 00:09:59,832
Excuse me.
147
00:10:00,933 --> 00:10:02,268
[Chinese accent]
Yes, uh,
148
00:10:02,335 --> 00:10:04,704
a very good Chinese accent
I can do for you.
149
00:10:06,939 --> 00:10:08,908
[train whistle blowing]
150
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:15,514
Did I just get that part?
151
00:10:15,581 --> 00:10:18,084
[crossing bell ringing]
152
00:10:18,150 --> 00:10:19,719
I think you just got that part.
153
00:10:19,785 --> 00:10:21,921
[train whistle blowing]
154
00:10:21,988 --> 00:10:23,155
Yes!
155

[bird squawking]

[So Yee speaking Cantonese]
157
00:10:31,998 --> 00:10:33,299
Mom, Dad, guess what!
158
00:10:35,568 --> 00:10:37,036
No, I got good news.
159
00:10:39,805 --> 00:10:41,173
I got the part!
160
00:10:44,910 --> 00:10:46,312
[Quo speaking Cantonese]
161
00:10:47,980 --> 00:10:49,715
No, Dad. I play a waitress.
162
00:10:51,784 --> 00:10:53,185
Hah-ya.
163
00:11:00,893 --> 00:11:02,862
Yeah, sure, Dad. I'll do that.
164
00:11:21,380 --> 00:11:23,616
[Southern accent]
Congratulations, my dear,
165
00:11:23,682 --> 00:11:25,918
on a job well done.
166
00:11:29,488 --> 00:11:32,558
Well, uh, he certainly
likes Oriental things.
167
00:11:32,625 --> 00:11:33,659
Yeah, it's different, isn't it?
168
00:11:33,726 --> 00:11:35,094
I mean, when he's not touring,
169
00:11:35,161 --> 00:11:37,763
he takes tai chi
down at the community center.
170
00:11:38,531 --> 00:11:41,734
Lisa, another rice king.
171
00:11:43,202 --> 00:11:45,337
-[laughs]
-Is not. [laughs]
172
00:11:45,404 --> 00:11:46,872
Oh, I see.
173
00:11:46,939 --> 00:11:48,340
Oh, I see. Um...
174
00:11:48,407 --> 00:11:51,844
there was just a sale
on lanterns at Kmart.
175
00:11:51,911 --> 00:11:53,679
You'll meet him at the club.
176
00:11:53,746 --> 00:11:55,781
OK. All right, all right.
177
00:11:55,848 --> 00:11:57,183
Do you want a drink?
178
00:11:57,249 --> 00:11:59,285
[chuckles] Bet you
all he has is sake.
179
00:12:00,319 --> 00:12:02,154
[laughs]
180
00:12:02,221 --> 00:12:02,988
Huh?
181
00:12:03,055 --> 00:12:04,457
[Lisa] Congratulations.
182
00:12:04,523 --> 00:12:05,858
Thanks.
183
00:12:08,761 --> 00:12:10,429
I could live here.
184
00:12:10,496 --> 00:12:12,364
[laughing]
185
00:12:12,431 --> 00:12:14,400
What?!
186
00:12:14,467 --> 00:12:15,935
What? What's so funny?
187
00:12:17,169 --> 00:12:20,606
What, in the Oriental love den?
188
00:12:20,673 --> 00:12:22,241
[blows]
189
00:12:23,042 --> 00:12:24,543
No. I mean...
190
00:12:25,578 --> 00:12:28,747
listen.
I'd come back from the salon,
191
00:12:28,814 --> 00:12:30,749
which I'll own in a few years,
192
00:12:30,816 --> 00:12:34,086
and he'd be playing his guitar.
193
00:12:34,153 --> 00:12:36,522
I mean, doesn't that
sound wonderful?
194
00:12:38,324 --> 00:12:40,025
Yeah...
195
00:12:40,092 --> 00:12:42,061
but can you
seriously see yourself
196
00:12:42,128 --> 00:12:43,562
growing old with this person?
197
00:12:44,964 --> 00:12:47,066
Who cares?
You sound like my mom.
198
00:12:51,871 --> 00:12:53,372
You know what I want?
199
00:12:54,607 --> 00:12:56,308
A man.
200
00:12:56,375 --> 00:12:57,309

202
00:13:00,146 --> 00:13:02,581
Well, how long
has it been, huh?
203
00:13:04,250 --> 00:13:06,585
Oh, my God. I can't remember.
204
00:13:06,652 --> 00:13:08,320
-Uh-oh.
-Tell me about it.
205
00:13:08,387 --> 00:13:11,157
It's OK. I'll see
if Robert's got any friends.
206
00:13:11,223 --> 00:13:14,894
Don't worry. I'll survive.
207
00:13:16,495 --> 00:13:20,833
Well, then, what is it
that you want, Jade?
208

And, uh...
212
00:13:38,284 --> 00:13:39,985
I get invited to the ceremony.
213
00:13:40,052 --> 00:13:43,055
[laughs] Of course.
214
00:13:45,691 --> 00:13:46,926
You know, I'd...
215
00:13:48,093 --> 00:13:51,130
I'd get nominated
for a really dramatic part,
216
00:13:51,197 --> 00:13:53,265
you know, something...
217
00:13:53,332 --> 00:13:57,036
something really hard
and-- and real.
218
00:13:59,905 --> 00:14:01,874
I don't know.
219
00:14:01,941 --> 00:14:05,211
[laughs]
Something that I had to, like...
220
00:14:05,277 --> 00:14:08,547
gain weight for. Something.
221
00:14:16,088 --> 00:14:17,156
[Jade] Hi, Mom.
222
00:14:17,223 --> 00:14:18,591
I'm gonna hang at Jade's today,

-OK, so don't wait up.
-[Jade] Be back by 1:00.

233
00:14:45,417 --> 00:14:46,485
What line?

Do you know "fascist"?
264

So why'd you go in there, then,
if the food's so bad?
265
00:17:22,508 --> 00:17:25,377
You know, clam chowder?

Look, I-I was hungry, OK?
267
00:17:32,584 --> 00:17:33,619
I was hungry.
268
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:36,221

Yeah, you.

I don't know. Anything.
What do you wanna do?

[laughs] I don't know. I...
279
00:18:18,430 --> 00:18:20,766
We could go get
some clam chowder.
280
00:18:22,534 --> 00:18:23,569
No.
281
00:18:25,137 --> 00:18:26,772
Anything but that.

Yes, Dad.
313
00:22:25,210 --> 00:22:26,845
I'm sorry.
314
00:22:29,448 --> 00:22:32,451
Can you understand
this wasn't my fault?
315
00:22:34,019 --> 00:22:35,620
This is not good.
316
00:22:35,687 --> 00:22:37,622
And now you talk back.
317
00:22:44,629 --> 00:22:46,298
What would have happened
if you got caught?
318
00:22:46,364 --> 00:22:49,401
I'm too young
to be worried like this.
319
00:22:49,468 --> 00:22:51,169
I didn't get caught.
320
00:22:51,236 --> 00:22:54,005

Huh.

You'll just end up like Winston.

00:23:04,216 --> 00:23:05,684
Will you calm down?
325
00:23:05,751 --> 00:23:07,619
You make him sound like
he's dead or something.
326
00:23:07,686 --> 00:23:09,621
Might as well be.
327
00:23:09,688 --> 00:23:12,991
Winston's disowned,
not dead, Pearl.

Trust me. It won't happen again.
329

Can I have that back, please?

00:24:08,246 --> 00:24:09,581
Wow.

00:24:14,286 --> 00:24:15,387
What do you mean?

-Thanks.
-Yeah, right.
342
00:24:39,477 --> 00:24:41,713
Can't believe
this is happening to me.
343
00:24:43,582 --> 00:24:47,118
Jade, I wanna
move out on my own.
344
00:24:47,185 --> 00:24:50,522
[chuckles] You know
you can't do that.
345
00:24:52,657 --> 00:24:55,961
Well, I say disown me.
346
00:24:57,529 --> 00:24:58,864
I don't care.
347
00:24:59,664 --> 00:25:00,899
I never had a brother, Jade.
348
00:25:00,966 --> 00:25:03,301
I'm not neurotic about it
like you are.
349
00:25:04,669 --> 00:25:06,471
Oh, what would you
like me to say?
350
00:25:06,538 --> 00:25:08,573
"Fine. Great.
Go ahead. Move out.
351
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:10,175
Everything's gonna be OK."

00:25:12,544 --> 00:25:13,812
Do you want me to bullshit you?
353
00:25:13,879 --> 00:25:15,213
You know how I feel.
354
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:17,449
I know you do.
Why are you denying it?
355
00:25:17,515 --> 00:25:18,683
It's not that simple.
356
00:25:18,750 --> 00:25:20,852
It is just that simple, Jade.
357
00:25:20,919 --> 00:25:24,356
Just tell me how you feel.
358
00:25:24,422 --> 00:25:26,992

things are right now?

00:27:30,415 --> 00:27:31,583
Who's Chiu Chein?
367
00:27:31,649 --> 00:27:33,451
Actress.
368
00:27:36,554 --> 00:27:38,456
Dad, the penny stocks.

00:27:51,603 --> 00:27:55,740
Maybe with your uncle's visit,
our luck will change.

-[Quo sighs]
373
00:29:34,405 --> 00:29:36,474
[So Yee] They were
best friends as children.
374
00:29:36,541 --> 00:29:38,843
That's why you have to be
very good when he's here,
375
00:29:38,910 --> 00:29:41,546
to show that your father
has been successful man.
376
00:29:41,613 --> 00:29:44,082
Now, long time ago,
your father told him
377
00:29:44,149 --> 00:29:46,618
that Winston owns
his own company
378
00:29:46,684 --> 00:29:48,853
and he lives in the States.
379
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:50,755
[laughs] What?
380
00:29:50,822 --> 00:29:52,457
Shh. Not so loud.
381
00:29:55,426 --> 00:29:56,628
Ma.
382
00:29:56,694 --> 00:29:59,364
You know what people
think about the actors.
383
00:29:59,430 --> 00:30:00,465
Understand?
384
00:30:00,532 --> 00:30:01,866
What if he catches us?
385
00:30:01,933 --> 00:30:03,434
He will not.
386
00:30:03,501 --> 00:30:04,936
Don't worry.
387
00:30:05,003 --> 00:30:07,172
Last month, we told Auntie
he was in the Yukon.
388
00:30:07,238 --> 00:30:09,340
You listen to me about this,
all right?
389
00:30:09,407 --> 00:30:12,610
Your father has worked very hard
to give you a good life.
390
00:30:12,677 --> 00:30:15,513
-The least you can do is--
-Lie for him.
391
00:30:15,580 --> 00:30:17,282
So, what's Dad, a brain surgeon?
392
00:30:18,116 --> 00:30:20,084
Shh. I see your father.
393
00:30:20,151 --> 00:30:21,819
-Let's hear it.
-Do we have to?
394
00:30:21,886 --> 00:30:23,621
We don't have much time.
Come on.

397
00:31:13,738 --> 00:31:16,174
Well, Quo, with me,
398
00:31:16,241 --> 00:31:18,142
you don't have to be too formal.
399
00:31:18,209 --> 00:31:19,844
Your English...

Lessons.
401
00:31:21,713 --> 00:31:23,414
I wanted to be understood.
402
00:31:23,481 --> 00:31:25,817
[laughs]
403
00:31:25,883 --> 00:31:27,986
I'm very pleased to meet you.

[Ah Hong laughs]
406
00:31:32,056 --> 00:31:33,324
[Quo] Ah Hong,
407
00:31:33,391 --> 00:31:36,060
you have learned
more than the language.
408
00:31:36,127 --> 00:31:38,329
I saw it in a movie
on the plane.
409
00:31:38,396 --> 00:31:41,199
[laughs]
410
00:31:42,834 --> 00:31:44,002

[Ah Hong] Hmm.
416
00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:23,908
All A's, hmm?
417
00:32:23,975 --> 00:32:26,444
They call it straight A's.
418
00:32:26,511 --> 00:32:28,379
Oh. Straight A's?
419
00:32:28,446 --> 00:32:31,716
-Yes.
-[telephone rings]
420
00:32:33,785 --> 00:32:34,719
Hello.
421
00:32:34,786 --> 00:32:36,521
[man] Hi. Is Mr. Li in?
422
00:32:36,587 --> 00:32:38,156
Dad! The phone!
423
00:32:38,923 --> 00:32:40,858
Call me a witch.
424
00:32:40,925 --> 00:32:44,095
You're burning a woman
for speaking the truth.
425
00:32:44,162 --> 00:32:46,731
-You're Mrs. Mar's nephew?
-Uh-huh.
426
00:32:46,798 --> 00:32:49,033
Yes, of course it is all right,
427
00:32:49,100 --> 00:32:51,035
as long as she
comes home early.
428
00:32:51,102 --> 00:32:53,838
-OK.
-You're the lawyer, aren't you?
429
00:32:53,905 --> 00:32:55,573
-That's right.
-Good.
430
00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:58,443
I'll call her to the phone.
You can make some arrangements.
431
00:32:58,509 --> 00:33:00,044
-Thanks.
-[Pearl] I still got an A.
432
00:33:00,111 --> 00:33:01,446
Jade!
433
00:33:01,512 --> 00:33:05,717
I am alone on Earth,
but not in Heaven.
434
00:33:05,783 --> 00:33:07,218
[Quo] Jade!
435
00:33:09,821 --> 00:33:12,090
What now? God.
436
00:33:12,857 --> 00:33:14,692
Who is it?
437
00:33:14,759 --> 00:33:17,061
Somebody.
438
00:33:18,329 --> 00:33:20,031
-Hello.
-Hi. It's Andrew.
439
00:33:20,098 --> 00:33:21,999
-Remember me?
-Yes. Yes, I remember.
440
00:33:22,066 --> 00:33:25,770
I was wondering if you'd like
to have dinner with me sometime.
441
00:33:25,837 --> 00:33:28,139
Uh, well, um, I don't know.
442
00:33:28,206 --> 00:33:29,741
Come on. It'll be fun.
443
00:33:29,807 --> 00:33:31,843
How 'bout next weekend?
444
00:33:31,909 --> 00:33:33,911
Um, yes. Uh...
445
00:33:33,978 --> 00:33:35,079
next weekend is fine.
446
00:33:35,146 --> 00:33:36,414
-I'll call.
-OK.

-Great.
-OK. Bye-bye.

[Jade] Try another one.
453
00:33:52,797 --> 00:33:55,767
What do you call
a cow with only two legs?
454
00:33:55,833 --> 00:33:56,868
I don't know. What?
455
00:33:56,934 --> 00:33:58,236
Lean beef.
456
00:33:58,302 --> 00:34:00,271

-Out of five?

-Oh. Ah! Lai-la. Lai-la.
-OK.
465
00:34:17,455 --> 00:34:21,592
Ah Quo, you are taking a photo
of a different man now.
466
00:34:21,659 --> 00:34:24,695
In this new country,
I'll become a new man.
467
00:34:24,762 --> 00:34:25,863
You quit smoking?
468

Uh... [laughs]
469
00:34:27,498 --> 00:34:28,966
I know you don't approve.
470
00:34:29,033 --> 00:34:33,438
Then allow me to hang this photo
in a special place.
471
00:34:33,504 --> 00:34:34,639
Ready?

Hey, I have four more!

00:35:00,898 --> 00:35:02,900
I came prepared. Come on.

Don't worry, Dad.
Your luck will change.

Your luck has changed,
hasn't it?
488
00:35:29,994 --> 00:35:32,563
Andrew is a nice fellow,
isn't he?
489
00:35:33,331 --> 00:35:35,800
Your mother and I approve.
490
00:35:35,867 --> 00:35:37,535
Thanks, Dad.
491
00:35:37,602 --> 00:35:40,872
You mustn't act
the way you do with him.
492
00:35:40,938 --> 00:35:43,040
Don't argue so much.
493
00:35:43,107 --> 00:35:45,009
Men don't like that.
494
00:35:45,076 --> 00:35:48,946
You've gotta be gentle, soft.
495
00:35:49,914 --> 00:35:51,516
Are you giving me advice?
496
00:35:51,582 --> 00:35:53,718
Of course, I'm give you advice.
497
00:35:53,784 --> 00:35:56,687
A father's supposed
to watch out for his children,
498
00:35:56,754 --> 00:35:59,423
like you'll
watch over me someday.

Without family at the center...
500
00:36:03,494 --> 00:36:06,130
You've got to respect
your good fortune,
501
00:36:06,197 --> 00:36:09,133
and if you two work out, well...
502
00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:10,601

But I just got here.

00:36:24,348 --> 00:36:26,183
I think he's gonna ask me out.
508
00:36:26,250 --> 00:36:27,752
Go to the back or something.

00:36:27,818 --> 00:36:29,587
-You can finish up later.
-[sighs]

you don't need a chaperone?

-I, uh--

00:37:54,171 --> 00:37:55,306
I jumped farther than you did.

-[scoffs]
-[chuckles]
518
00:37:57,174 --> 00:38:00,311
So what do you want me to do
about it, give you a prize?
519
00:38:00,378 --> 00:38:02,546
Hey, look, no need to get nasty.
520
00:38:02,613 --> 00:38:04,649
I'm not the one that ran out.
521
00:38:05,650 --> 00:38:07,418
You feeling guilty?
522
00:38:10,921 --> 00:38:12,623
You were sleeping.
523
00:38:13,557 --> 00:38:15,626
We were sleeping together.
524
00:38:16,794 --> 00:38:18,863
My dad put you up to it,
didn't he?
525
00:38:19,897 --> 00:38:21,999
Didn't he?
Just so that I'd remain
526
00:38:22,066 --> 00:38:25,269
the ineffectual goof
that I really am.
527
00:38:25,336 --> 00:38:26,637
I-I actually thought
528
00:38:26,704 --> 00:38:29,040
I was gonna become
a confident human being,
529
00:38:29,106 --> 00:38:33,511
that a woman like you could find
someone like me attractive.
530
00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:38,716
[scoffs] Listen, I'm sorry.
531
00:38:39,950 --> 00:38:42,219
[sighs] I didn't know
what else to do.
532
00:38:42,286 --> 00:38:45,156
Look, I wasn't looking,
like, for a lifelong commitment,

00:38:45,222 --> 00:38:46,691
just a phone number, breakfast.
534
00:38:46,757 --> 00:38:49,126
Uh, like a cup of instant coffee
would have sufficed.

00:38:49,193 --> 00:38:50,428

You remember my name.

01:02:05,988 --> 01:02:07,824
[pebble splashes]
909
01:02:16,432 --> 01:02:18,434
Come on.
I'll buy you an ice cream.
910
01:02:24,640 --> 01:02:26,876
I can't do this anymore, Mark.
911
01:02:28,478 --> 01:02:33,082
Um, I can't--
I can't be with you.
912
01:02:38,020 --> 01:02:39,455
Listen, uh...
913
01:02:40,423 --> 01:02:42,058
look, I-I...
914
01:02:43,159 --> 01:02:45,094
Look, I don't think
I heard you correctly,
915
01:02:45,161 --> 01:02:48,030
'cause I thought
I was here to console you.
916
01:02:54,437 --> 01:02:56,272
You don't understand.
917
01:02:57,707 --> 01:03:00,877
I could never hurt them.
918
01:03:02,845 --> 01:03:04,547
But you can hurt me, right?
919
01:03:14,724 --> 01:03:16,159
Just like that...
920
01:03:17,560 --> 01:03:18,895
Just like that first night.
921
01:03:18,961 --> 01:03:21,397
I-I should have
let you walk away. I...
922
01:03:52,862 --> 01:03:55,097
[machinery rumbling]
923
01:03:58,834 --> 01:04:01,437
[man] You know, is this place
where-- where, uh...
924
01:04:01,504 --> 01:04:04,006
-the auditions are for the...
-[photographer] That's good.
925
01:04:04,073 --> 01:04:05,608
That's good, yeah.
926
01:04:05,675 --> 01:04:07,176
[woman] Thanks for coming in.
927
01:04:07,243 --> 01:04:09,512
Jade, I'll be
with you in a moment.
928
01:04:09,579 --> 01:04:11,013
[Jade] OK.
929
01:04:11,080 --> 01:04:12,615
[woman 2 ] No,
it looks fine the way it is.
930
01:04:12,682 --> 01:04:14,550
-[woman 1] Jade is--
-[woman 3 speaking Cantonese]
931
01:04:17,620 --> 01:04:20,823
Listen, I promise that you'll
like the next one, all right?
932
01:04:20,890 --> 01:04:23,659
-[overlapping chatter]
-Oh, this'll just take a minute.
933
01:04:32,635 --> 01:04:34,537
She's in a really bad mood.
934
01:04:34,604 --> 01:04:35,838
Are you OK?
935
01:04:35,905 --> 01:04:38,441
Uh, yeah.
Just don't let her faze you.
936
01:04:38,507 --> 01:04:41,477
She doesn't think that we
have any talent here.
937
01:04:41,544 --> 01:04:43,212
Shall we prove her wrong?
938
01:04:46,215 --> 01:04:48,251
Janet, this is Jade Li.
939
01:04:48,317 --> 01:04:52,421
She's one of the most talented
Chinese actresses in town.
940
01:04:52,488 --> 01:04:54,423
[laughs]
941
01:05:37,199 --> 01:05:39,302
Good. Very good, Carmen.
942
01:05:39,368 --> 01:05:40,970
Should I give her the sides?
943
01:05:41,037 --> 01:05:43,105
'Course.
944
01:05:56,585 --> 01:05:57,620
Um...
945
01:05:57,687 --> 01:05:59,422
um, can I have
the ones in English?
946
01:06:10,232 --> 01:06:12,368
There are no English scripts.
947
01:06:33,022 --> 01:06:34,523
But, um...
948
01:06:46,469 --> 01:06:48,704
[men conversing in Cantonese]
949
01:06:50,973 --> 01:06:52,375
Hi, Ma.
950
01:07:10,226 --> 01:07:12,495
Aren't you gonna even
ask me how I'm doing?
951
01:07:12,561 --> 01:07:13,796
Later.
952
01:07:13,863 --> 01:07:15,765
The tea will get cold.
953
01:07:15,831 --> 01:07:19,168
[Ah Hong] I have work to do
in Hong Kong, or else I would.
954
01:07:19,969 --> 01:07:21,203
They would have to kick me out.
955
01:07:21,270 --> 01:07:24,273
-No, we would never do that.
-[laughs]
956
01:07:24,340 --> 01:07:26,776
It was so kind of you
to drop by.
957
01:07:26,842 --> 01:07:30,379
Well, I wanted to visit
before Ah Hong left.
958
01:07:30,446 --> 01:07:33,182
Oh, yes, thanks so much
for the oranges.
959
01:07:33,249 --> 01:07:36,218
No need to be so formal.
960
01:07:36,285 --> 01:07:38,754
Jade, do you know Ming?
961
01:07:38,821 --> 01:07:41,023
Uh, no, Mrs. Mar.
962
01:07:41,090 --> 01:07:43,025
Ming, this is Jade.
963
01:07:43,092 --> 01:07:45,227
Jade, Dr. Ming Chu.
964
01:07:45,294 --> 01:07:48,497
Pleased to meet you. More tea?
965
01:07:48,564 --> 01:07:52,668
Ming just moved into those
new office buildings on Pender,
966
01:07:52,735 --> 01:07:54,870
his very own practice.
967
01:07:54,937 --> 01:07:56,539
How long have you
been practicing?
968
01:07:56,605 --> 01:07:59,241
-[Mrs. Mar] Two years.
-Wow.
969
01:07:59,308 --> 01:08:02,545
Your parents
must be so proud, eh?
970
01:08:02,611 --> 01:08:03,813
[Ming sighs]
971
01:08:03,879 --> 01:08:07,750
I thought it was a zit at first.
972
01:08:07,817 --> 01:08:09,251
And a side order of fries.
973
01:08:09,318 --> 01:08:10,653
[with accent]
Would you like glavy with that?
974
01:08:10,719 --> 01:08:14,590
-Uh, yeah.
-Oh, then it started to swell,
975
01:08:14,657 --> 01:08:17,893
and now it's got hairs.
Oh, my God.
976
01:08:17,960 --> 01:08:21,263
[dramatic music plays]
977
01:08:21,330 --> 01:08:23,032
Honey, order something.
978
01:08:23,098 --> 01:08:26,035
Oh, I'll have a spinach salad.
979
01:08:26,102 --> 01:08:27,403
Better turn it down.
980
01:08:27,470 --> 01:08:29,472
[waitress]
Anything to drink with that?
981
01:08:29,538 --> 01:08:32,575
It's OK. They're upstairs.
982
01:08:33,742 --> 01:08:36,412
I don't understand.
Where were you?
983
01:08:38,848 --> 01:08:40,216
I was the waitress.
984
01:08:40,282 --> 01:08:41,851
[Pearl] Hey,
that was great, Jade.
985
01:08:41,917 --> 01:08:45,287
[sighs] Thanks.
986
01:08:46,088 --> 01:08:47,890
And you have that big audition.
987
01:08:49,925 --> 01:08:51,694
I already had it.
988
01:08:51,760 --> 01:08:53,729
And?
989
01:08:57,333 --> 01:08:59,802
And they were looking
for a different type.
990
01:08:59,869 --> 01:09:03,138
Well, now that you've
had enough fun,
991
01:09:03,205 --> 01:09:04,874
things can go back to normal.
992
01:09:04,940 --> 01:09:06,475
Ma!
993
01:09:06,542 --> 01:09:08,844
Maybe you can take
that business course
994
01:09:08,911 --> 01:09:10,846
at the community center.
995
01:09:10,913 --> 01:09:12,648
Mrs. Mar would love it.
996
01:09:14,383 --> 01:09:16,719
-She didn't get the part.
-Good.
997
01:09:18,320 --> 01:09:20,256
Why is the big TV on?
998
01:09:24,093 --> 01:09:25,961
Dr. Ming asked about her.
999
01:09:26,028 --> 01:09:28,397
He wanted to take your daughter
out for dinner.
1000
01:09:28,464 --> 01:09:30,866
He said something
about Tuesday night.
1001
01:09:33,903 --> 01:09:34,970
Mm.
1002
01:09:35,037 --> 01:09:36,906
[girl speaking Cantonese]
1003
01:09:47,950 --> 01:09:50,519
-OK. Bye-bye.
-Bye-bye.
1004
01:09:52,321 --> 01:09:54,323
-[chuckles]
-Oh, excuse me, Uncle. I--
1005
01:09:55,124 --> 01:09:56,859
I'm still a smoker.
1006
01:10:06,001 --> 01:10:07,803
Who were you on the phone with?
1007
01:10:10,673 --> 01:10:12,608
[sighs]
1008
01:10:12,675 --> 01:10:15,578
My life is very,
very complicated, Jade.
1009
01:10:16,512 --> 01:10:18,380
Well, join the club.
1010
01:10:19,715 --> 01:10:23,452
When I look at her,
I feel whole,
1011
01:10:23,519 --> 01:10:25,421
but it doesn't make it right.
1012
01:10:28,123 --> 01:10:30,993
She's much younger than me.
1013
01:10:31,060 --> 01:10:32,928
She was once my maid.
1014
01:10:34,096 --> 01:10:35,898
Now we have child together.
1015
01:10:37,299 --> 01:10:38,701
You have a family?
1016
01:10:41,103 --> 01:10:44,039
Your father would say
this is not a family.
1017
01:10:46,575 --> 01:10:49,745
To live in this way,
I get tired.
1018
01:10:50,512 --> 01:10:52,648
They don't exist.
1019
01:10:52,715 --> 01:10:53,849
What?
1020
01:10:54,917 --> 01:10:56,518
Your family,
1021
01:10:56,585 --> 01:10:57,886
they're like ghosts,
1022
01:10:57,953 --> 01:11:00,289
something not even
worth talking about.
1023
01:11:03,092 --> 01:11:04,660
They're ghosts.
1024
01:11:05,628 --> 01:11:07,196
If I talk about them,
1025
01:11:07,263 --> 01:11:09,531
I will be the ghost.
1026
01:11:09,598 --> 01:11:11,233
I never said it was easy.
1027
01:11:11,300 --> 01:11:13,268
No.
1028
01:11:13,335 --> 01:11:15,404
[Ah Hong sighs]
1029
01:11:17,539 --> 01:11:20,976
Sometimes I feel like I'm
going to disappear anyway...
1030
01:11:21,944 --> 01:11:23,512
under the pressure.
1031
01:11:25,547 --> 01:11:27,816
Choose your path
carefully, Jade.
1032
01:11:30,285 --> 01:11:33,322
Some flowers arrived for you.
1033
01:11:37,960 --> 01:11:40,195
I brought you some buns.
1034
01:11:40,262 --> 01:11:41,630
What kind?
1035
01:11:45,000 --> 01:11:46,735
Red bean.
1036
01:11:46,802 --> 01:11:47,870
Good.
1037
01:11:50,673 --> 01:11:54,743
We didn't come here so you
could completely ruin your life.
1038
01:11:54,810 --> 01:11:58,814
We came here
to give you opportunities.
1039
01:11:58,881 --> 01:12:00,916
I know, Dad.
1040
01:12:00,983 --> 01:12:05,921
From now on, you must seize
only the best opportunities.
1041
01:12:07,289 --> 01:12:09,191
Yes, Dad.
1042
01:12:09,258 --> 01:12:11,560
And you must listen to me.
1043
01:12:11,627 --> 01:12:15,698
I know this world
better than you, yes?
1044
01:12:18,233 --> 01:12:19,735
Yes, Dad.
1045
01:12:30,245 --> 01:12:34,950
By the way, have you thought
about courses Ma suggested?
1046
01:12:44,793 --> 01:12:46,995
I'm just trying to decide.
1047
01:12:54,203 --> 01:12:55,838
[clock ticking]
1048
01:12:59,608 --> 01:13:01,543
[Pearl] It's him!
1049
01:13:02,478 --> 01:13:04,713
[slow-motion music playing]
1050
01:13:09,084 --> 01:13:11,120
[music playing]
1051
01:13:54,897 --> 01:13:57,166
[Jade] Could you
please stop the car?
1052
01:14:04,306 --> 01:14:05,307
Go!
1053
01:14:05,374 --> 01:14:07,609
[rock-and-roll playing]
1054
01:15:02,631 --> 01:15:04,867
[panting]
1055
01:15:12,808 --> 01:15:14,343
[Pearl] How long
is the flight back?
1056
01:15:14,409 --> 01:15:15,677
[Ah Hong] Ten hours.
1057
01:15:15,744 --> 01:15:17,479
[So Yee] Out of the way.
1058
01:15:17,546 --> 01:15:18,714
[Ah Hong] Wah!
1059
01:15:18,780 --> 01:15:20,849
[speaking Cantonese]
1060
01:15:42,905 --> 01:15:45,173
Do you remember
the first time you were away,
1061
01:15:45,240 --> 01:15:47,342
when you pick up Jade
from the school?
1062
01:15:47,409 --> 01:15:50,112
[Quo] She had grown
so much in three months.
1063
01:15:50,178 --> 01:15:51,647
I barely recognized her,
1064
01:15:51,713 --> 01:15:54,049
and she was
my very own daughter.
1065
01:15:54,816 --> 01:15:56,852
Do you recognize me now?
1066
01:15:56,919 --> 01:16:00,389
Sometimes. Sometimes,
I still get confused.
1067
01:16:00,455 --> 01:16:01,723
Every day, I blink,
1068
01:16:01,790 --> 01:16:03,992
every day, I get old,
and she gets old.
1069
01:16:04,059 --> 01:16:06,695
I remember
you dressed me up, Mom,
1070
01:16:06,762 --> 01:16:08,697
but you didn't tell me why.
1071
01:16:09,831 --> 01:16:11,566
I was wearing that--
1072
01:16:11,633 --> 01:16:14,102
that little plaid dress
with the bow.
1073
01:16:14,169 --> 01:16:15,871
[So Yee]
And the new black shoes.
1074
01:16:15,938 --> 01:16:17,272
-Yeah.
-[Pearl] Hey,
1075
01:16:17,339 --> 01:16:19,374
there's a picture of you
with that dress on.
1076
01:16:19,441 --> 01:16:20,742
[Quo laughs]
1077
01:16:20,809 --> 01:16:22,711
Children find
their favorite clothes,
1078
01:16:22,778 --> 01:16:24,980
never want to take them off.
1079
01:16:27,149 --> 01:16:30,052
I still think I flew
into your arms that day.
1080
01:16:32,821 --> 01:16:35,324
I-I mean, I was a kid.
1081
01:16:46,501 --> 01:16:48,403
Do you need me, Dad?
1082
01:16:49,938 --> 01:16:51,807
-What? Ah Hong...
-[Ah Hong] Huh?
1083
01:16:51,873 --> 01:16:54,276
you've got us all
so sentimental.
1084
01:16:54,343 --> 01:16:56,311
Come on. Let's eat.
1085
01:16:56,378 --> 01:16:59,147
[Ah Hong] You're supposed
to tell her you need her.
1086
01:17:03,452 --> 01:17:05,053
I gotta go.
1087
01:17:08,123 --> 01:17:09,992
What is she talking about?
1088
01:17:13,595 --> 01:17:14,696
Excuse me, please.
1089
01:17:14,763 --> 01:17:16,398
I'm going to the bathroom.
1090
01:17:22,571 --> 01:17:24,139
Jade!
1091
01:17:26,375 --> 01:17:28,076
I'm moving out.
1092
01:17:31,213 --> 01:17:33,015
After all this...
1093
01:17:33,849 --> 01:17:35,951
this is what you have to say?
1094
01:17:38,654 --> 01:17:40,255
I have to.
1095
01:17:45,560 --> 01:17:46,895
Go.
1096
01:17:50,232 --> 01:17:52,701
Quo, wait!
1097
01:17:56,672 --> 01:17:58,874
[clatter]
1098
01:17:58,940 --> 01:18:00,409
[door closes]
1099
01:18:09,451 --> 01:18:11,486
[So Yee crying]
1100
01:18:16,958 --> 01:18:18,627
[door opens]
1101
01:18:18,693 --> 01:18:20,128
[door closes]
1102
01:18:55,530 --> 01:18:57,432
You're on a different path now.
1103
01:18:59,568 --> 01:19:00,902
I know.
1104
01:19:03,004 --> 01:19:04,506
It's a good one.
1105
01:19:07,375 --> 01:19:08,777
You think so?
1106
01:19:09,578 --> 01:19:12,247
Hey, if ever you need me...
1107
01:19:23,592 --> 01:19:25,560
Is it OK if I take this one?
1108
01:19:29,598 --> 01:19:31,500
Do you have to go now?
1109
01:19:35,036 --> 01:19:36,872
You gonna be all right?
1110
01:19:39,641 --> 01:19:41,343
Yeah, of course.
1111
01:19:44,913 --> 01:19:46,815
Call you later, OK?
1112
01:19:48,150 --> 01:19:49,317
OK.
1113
01:20:03,798 --> 01:20:06,234
I'm not doing this to hurt you.
1114
01:20:11,373 --> 01:20:13,942
Please, Mom.
1115
01:20:23,385 --> 01:20:25,353
[sighs]
1116
01:20:31,560 --> 01:20:36,031
Maybe if-- if we work on him,
maybe he'll change.
1117
01:20:36,097 --> 01:20:38,800
I have lived with him
for so many years.
1118
01:20:38,867 --> 01:20:40,569
I know he can't.
1119
01:20:42,304 --> 01:20:44,839
Maybe it's because no one
has ever asked him to.
1120
01:20:44,906 --> 01:20:46,408
[So Yee sighs]
1121
01:20:51,646 --> 01:20:53,615
I'll see you soon, OK?
1122
01:20:53,682 --> 01:20:57,419
You'll be lucky
not to end up on the street.
1123
01:20:57,485 --> 01:21:00,555
Mom, please.
1124
01:21:03,291 --> 01:21:08,230
Now... who knows
what will happen?
1125
01:21:08,997 --> 01:21:09,931
[Jade sighs]
1126
01:21:09,998 --> 01:21:12,033
Listen, Mom.
1127
01:21:14,169 --> 01:21:17,205
Maybe I like not knowing.
1128
01:21:26,681 --> 01:21:28,149
Leave the key.
1129
01:21:29,618 --> 01:21:31,620
But, Dad...
1130
01:21:31,686 --> 01:21:33,922
You won't need it anymore.
1131
01:22:12,427 --> 01:22:15,664
Hi. It's Mark.
Please leave a message,
1132
01:22:15,730 --> 01:22:18,366
or, uh, leave a joke.
1133
01:22:18,433 --> 01:22:19,734
[beep]
1134
01:22:19,801 --> 01:22:21,303
Hi. It's me.
1135
01:22:21,369 --> 01:22:26,007
Um, there were these two peanuts
walking down the road,
1136
01:22:26,074 --> 01:22:29,110
and, uh, one of them
was a-salted.
1137
01:22:29,945 --> 01:22:31,579
Hah hah hah. [chuckles]
1138
01:22:31,646 --> 01:22:34,416
Uh, Lisa and Andrew are
gonna come by at around 7:00,
1139
01:22:34,482 --> 01:22:37,652
so we'll eat first
and then paint, OK?
1140
01:22:37,719 --> 01:22:39,554
I'll see you. Bye.
1141
01:22:44,559 --> 01:22:46,594
[music playing]
1142
01:23:42,617 --> 01:23:44,652
[bells pealing]
1143
01:23:59,734 --> 01:24:02,137
