[Old Boy]
[Episode 3]
How about this? If you're out of work...
come join my crew.
You can move some boxes, rig some wires, or play the guitar and help the band.
You're good at that.
A tiger gets insulted by dogs on level land.
How have I fallen to the level of rigging wires and playing music for you?
When we made up that old street boy band when we were kids
I played music for you.
Old boy... boy, boy.
We're almost 40 years old.
Aren't you embarrassed to call us old boys?
I'm going to have to draw the line here.
You two are old boys. I'm a young boy.
How are you young?
Look in the mirror, will you? You have facial hair!
Xiao Yue, white wine is no fun. Open up a bottle of red.
No, stop drinking. Just stick with the white.
Why?
Just open a bottle. He's having a terrible day.
You really shouldn't keep drinking.
When you're having a bad day, you shouldn't drink your sorrows away.
The more you drink, the worse things get. Just listen to me.
That makes sense.
Okay, I'll stop here today.
Let's go. Ditch the check.
Drink and dash!
- Bye, Yue. - Go! Don't drink anymore.
Okay, let's do it here.
Let's have a drink here.
I know you're feeling blue so I'll keep you company today.
Will they sell alcohol to us though?
I just want a drink today. Come with me if you're a friend.
Okay, I will.
I look a bit older than you. I'll order.
Hold this for me.
I'm guessing one bottle won't be enough. Aerate another for us, all right?
You're drinking that like beer.
- Just open another one. - Sure.
Boss, I'd like to order alcohol.
Don't have any.
Then what's this? He can order but I can't?
Did you bring money? Fruit juice is 41 yuan a glass.
Uh, Uncle, can you order two drinks for me?
Call me Big Bro.
- Big Bro. - Nope.
I'll pay you first.
You don't even have scruff on your chin. Have you graduated junior high yet?
I'm a freshman in senior high!
Seniors in senior high are 18 years old.
Drink as much as you want. There's another one aerating.
Let's go somewhere else.
Why?
No alcohol.
What?
They won't sell to us.
Why don't we drink some juice first?
Where are you going?
Uncle, I don't know you, but thank you for attending my mom's funeral.
Xiao Wei.
Just call me Brother Shi.
He's Xiao Wei's son.
I've also seen you before at the cafe...
That's your friend over there, right?
Come sit with us.
What do you want to drink? I'll get it for you.
This is fine.
This doesn't taste good. I'll get you two cocktails.
Cocktails? Kids shouldn't drink.
He's going through a difficult period. Don't be so inflexible.
Thanks, Uncle!
He's cooler than this other uncle.
Who's an uncle? Call me Brother.
Hey, two virgin mojitos.
It won't taste the same.
It's okay. Just add more mint. It'll mask the difference in taste.
Okay.
Take it easy.
This is strong. Drink slowly.
What do you think?
It'll do.
Uncle, we've had experience.
When my dad drinks, I sometimes take a sip or two.
He only drinks straight whisky, no ice. Cocktails are nothing.
Kid, move on from the past.
This drink is called mojito, also meaning don't look back.
What does it mean? It's telling you to keep looking forward. Don't look back.
I'm also very sorry about your mom.
Drink if you want to.
It's okay to drink at this time.
But don't make it a habit.
Life is unpredictable.
You can only face it calmly. There's no other option.
Here.
Cheers.
I have a bad life.
Don't say that.
If we're talking about bad lives, I have to say something.
Who knows which one of us has it worse?
From now on, if you want to drink, go ahead and do it, but not alone.
You can come to me or him.
Uncle, Brother, were you close with my mom?
Rather close.
Oh, yes. Not as close as he was.
- What's your name? - My name is Wu Zheng.
I never heard my mom talk about you.
You didn't go to the funeral either. Were you her good friend?
Acquainted.
Come.
Let's drink. Drink as much as you want.
If there's not enough, I'll order more. Come on, let's drink.
Don't drink so much.
Friend! Friend! Have you ever thought of me?
You two listen up.
If you ever run into any difficulties, just come to us. You hear me?
Come to me with good things. Go to him for the bad things.
How can you say that in front of the kids?
Come to me with good things. Go to him for the bad things.
Hold on, hold on.
I want to pee. Is that okay?
Go, go.
Now that you say that...
Over here.
Get out of the rain.
- Is it raining? - Yes.
It's raining.
Friend, oh friend!
Use your foot to press down...
What do you guys want?
What do you think? Pay money for that piss you took.
Are they going number two?
They... must've fell in. I'll go check on them.
I didn't piss on it.
You can't piss next to my board either.
What do you guys want?
What's going on?
He pissed on my skateboard.
You pissed on his board?
I didn't. I was off to the side.
- You're in the wrong. - I'll apologize.
Sorry. Okay?
- Does an apology fix things? - What do you want?
What do I want? Pay money for it.
- How much do you want? - Enough, enough.
Just pay him.
- Take 200 yuan. - No, too much.
That's too much.
10 yuan is more like it.
Okay, 20 yuan!
Uncle, are you kidding?
Am I kidding?
20 yuan?
Xiao Ou, it's been half an hour! Are you done yet?
I have to shower and sleep! I'm so sleepy!
Did you fall into the toilet? Do you need me to save you?
Okay, almost done!
How is it?
What's going on?
Why are you dressed up?
Beautiful? Cute?
Don't I look 15 years younger?
Not just 15 years. You've reverted straight back to kindergarten.
That's exactly what I want!
Not bad, not bad.
No wonder.
My brother loves Arale.
You're dressing up for him.
Bingo.
Now I feel more confident.
You do look the part
but isn't my brother's thesis defense coming up soon?
Does he have time to video chat with you?
We made plans a few days ago.
We're chatting tonight right after his thesis defense today.
I hope my brother passes.
Then the day you two reunite will be just around the corner.
Seriously. Just 100 more days.
I won't have to suffer through the long distance soon.
Goodness.
Enough talking. Move it. I have to shower and sleep. Bye!
Okay, bye.
Hi.
Arale?
Do you have to be so cute?
I'll take praise from a super anime fan like you as the highest compliment.
You look really great.
Thank you. How are you? Have you adjusted yet?
It was just a 10 hour flight. I've already adjusted.
What about you?
I'm not doing that great.
I'm fine when you're here but you left so soon.
Have you told the school yet that you're moving here after the semester?
I can't bring up such an important topic without careful consideration.
I have to think about it slowly.
You're not regretting it now, are you?
Of course not.
You know my dad though.
I have to slowly work on him.
Anyway, you've already promised me you'd come after this semester is over.
If you really love me and want to see me
you'll fly over here without a second thought.
I think of the two of us, you're the one more like Superman.
You always place your job first.
Distance makes the heart grow fonder.
If we saw each other every day, we'd get sick of each other.
But distance always creates estrangement.
I have a classmate who has been
in a long-distance relationship for three years.
They ended up breaking up last week.
If they broke up, that means their relationship was unstable.
We're not the same.
Didn't I take time off to fly over there to go on vacation with you?
If you're not satisfied with that
then I'll have to send a girl over to apologize to you.
What?
Ms. Wang from my school has a daughter who got into University of Sydney.
She's in the same school as you.
Help pick her up from the airport and look around for housing.
She doesn't know anyone over there.
I was wondering why someone as proud as you would be in cosplay for me.
You were also being so passionate. It must've been for a purpose.
Are you sending someone here to keep an eye on me or to test me?
All right. So how does the girl look? Is she pretty?
Even if she's pretty, it's none of your business.
Ms. Wang really looks after me.
Help me look after her daughter.
That's a very difficult task.
Pick up from the airport won't be a problem
but looking for housing...
Please.
Let her have your room for a bit while you sleep on the sofa.
No!
I'm really busy.
I also have to prepare for interviews and--
Hold on.
Hello?
Are you Ms. Lin Xiao Ou from Wharton International School?
Yes. Who are you?
This is the police station.
Are you Xiao Han and Zhou Zhou students in your class?
What happened to them?
They were fighting with others on the street.
They're at the station right now. Please come by.
I'm coming right away.
It's so late. Where are you going?
My students seem to be in trouble.
I have to check on them. I have to go.
- Here? - Yes.
Officer, since the matter has been sorted out
can I take these two kids with me?
You're not their guardians or emergency contacts.
You can't take them with you.
We know that kid's mom. You can say we know them.
We've already contacted their teacher. You two don't have to worry.
Since you know his mom, don't take them out drinking again.
Right.
Shi Fei, their teacher is coming soon.
- If we don't put in a word-- - Xiao Han! Zhou Zhou!
- You? - You?
I was wondering why I'd have such bad luck.
So it's because of you.
You're definitely a special kind of menace.
Nothing good ever happens when I see you.
You blame others instead of reflecting on what you did wrong.
Did you forcefully kick out a passenger because you saw me?
Everybody knows your true character. You have a bad reputation.
Uh... It's not what you think.
Let me introduce myself.
There's no need to explain to someone like her.
What do you mean by someone like me?
You're their teacher, are you? Isn't that something?
I really pity these kids now for being stuck with a teacher like you.
What's that you're dressed in?
And you have... two ears?
Are you worthy to serve as a model for others?
So what? It's not up to you whether I'm worthy.
The kids decide that!
Why are you even brawling with kids at your age?
That's a waste of the food you eat.
Get up. Get up! Zhou Zhou!
Seriously, you two.
I'll deal with you two later.
Miss, come sign for these two kids.
You're really their teacher, not their female classmate?
That's so sweet!
I am their teacher. That's the truth.
But in my hurry to get here, I didn't bring my work ID.
Will a driver's license do?
My age is my biggest secret. It's there for you to see.
I'm cosplaying Arale today.
I do look like her, don't I? I've even confused you.
Doesn't Arale destroy a police car every day?
It seems you came prepared.
No, no, no.
My Arale cosplay ended as soon as you called.
That female teacher is quite pretty. How did you meet her?
Pretty? You call those rabbit teeth pretty?
She's so cute!
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
If she has a good personality, she'll be pretty.
With a bad personality, you won't want to look at her even if she's a fairy.
How did she get on your bad side?
That topic makes me mad.
Because of her, my passport was wrecked in Australia and I got a serious demerit.
She is extremely arrogant and self-centered.
I really don't understand
how she could've lived so long without getting offed by someone.
Hold it right there!
Arale.
I'm warning you to stay away from my students.
You took them drinking? Don't you know they're underage?
You even brought them into a fight.
You can go ahead and be a scumbag but don't mess with my students.
The police have already looked into the fight.
It's clear those brats started it.
Please get the facts straight before getting on my case about the drinking.
I ordered virgin cocktails for them.
Let me put it this way. They were drinking carbonated drinks all night.
Car...
Carbonated drinks?
You lied to me?
You guys still got drunk.
See? These people have a deceptive nature.
They think it's humorous.
Stay away from them from now on.
Kids, let me teach a word: sanctimonious.
Who does it describe? Your teacher!
Your teacher is vicious.
In Australia, she let me fall into the pool
wreck my passport, and get into trouble at work.
She didn't help at all!
If you two are waiting for her to teach you, then you're on your own.
So pitiful. Goodbye.
You're blaming me for your own unsteady feet?
- What's that about the passport? - Nothing. It's not your fault.
- Let me introduce myself. - Shi Fei!
- Don't talk to her. - Next time.
By the way, do you have my sunglasses?
No.
Look into my eyes and say that again.
I said I don't have them!
They're just stupid sunglasses. Who would want them? Cheapskate.
Well... If you find them, give them back to me.
You...
What a menace!
Where did you meet these two weirdos?
Are we really going?
At my mom's funeral.
It's not wise to drink your sorrows away at times like these.
I can't believe you two.
Roaming the streets at night
and even walked yourselves into a beating.
You don't get it.
It's called drawing my sword at the sight of injustice.
It would depend on who you're drawing that sword for.
Don't hang out with those two people again. Okay?
You haven't eaten yet, right?
I'll take you to get some food.
Do you remember those two men? They're quite incredible.
They can still fight so well at their age.
That tall one in particular coordinated well with you.
Listen up, you two. No more dealings with them.
Especially with that fierce-looking one with more brawn than brains.
Fierce-looking one with more brawn than brains? Which one?
The tall one.
Would an adult who only uses violence to solve problems be a good person?
That can't be. Xiao Han and I were witnesses.
Those people started it first.
You don't believe me?
You must not have seen the trending news the last two days.
"Airline captain unlawfully forces passenger off plane."
"Public boycotts unethical airline."
He's the captain.
He's so cool!
You're not getting the point.
The point is that he's violent and unlawfully kicked out a passenger.
He has violent tendencies.
Don't contact him again.
Do you want to...
go home to rest?
Take two days off. Don't worry about class.
This is said often, but I have to say this.
Life continues on.
You have to keep looking forward.
Miss, Xiao Han can't go back home.
His dad...
isn't his real father.
He became his foster father.
What does that mean?
Xiao Han's dad told him
their relationship as father and son is over.
They're to go their separate ways now.
He ran out in a fit of anger.
What kind of nonsense is this?
I'm going home with you after we're done eating.
Xiao Han's dad?
Are you really planning on walking away from everything?
I couldn't recognize you, Ms. Lin.
Where are you going? You're leaving your child?
With Xiao Wei gone, I no longer have a connection to Xiao Han.
It's best if we go our separate ways.
Even if you're not related by blood, you've still lived together for years.
How can you just leave?
Where's Oscar?
Where's my dog?
Xiao--
Where's Oscar? Where's my dog?
You don't even know where you'll take shelter.
- You're worrying about a dog? - What do you mean?
Kid, change that spoiled attitude of yours.
Sir, even if Xiao Han isn't your real son, he is not of age yet.
As your foster father, you have an obligation to raise and educate him.
You can't just leave. That's illegal.
You're talking to me about the law?
All right.
The last thing I can do for you is give you a warning.
Before your mother died, she and I both agreed
to let the court put the house up for auction.
It will be executed soon.
You should pack up and leave.
Wait. If Mom didn't die, were you going to keep me in the dark forever?
Was I not emotionally invested as well?
Besides, it was your mom's idea to keep you in the dark.
- Uncle, you liar! - You're in no position to speak.
Okay, enough.
Since you've already kept it a secret for 16 years
why didn't you just keep it a secret his whole life?
My life is just as valuable.
- That-- - Enough of that useless talk.
Where is my dog?
I sent him to the pet store.
You can get him when you've settled down.
This is the person who brought calla lilies to your mom's funeral.
He's your mom's old friend.
You might be able to find information about your real father from him.
If I hadn't come back
would I not even had the chance to get this card?
Kid, one business card doesn't change anything.
How long can you rely on your parents?
It's time to learn to grow up.
Don't leave!
Mandolin?
What kind of company is this?
Shi Fei?
Do you know who this Shi Fei is?
Do you need me to go with you to see him?
This house has my mom's scent.
I'm going to stay until the last second.
Zhou Zhou, stay with him today. Call me if anything happens.
I have to go. I have class in the morning.
Shi Fei.
This is your mom's old friend? Do you know him?
You know him too. The one at the bar.
Those two?
Which one?
The one who wouldn't buy drinks for you.
Morning.
I was going to wake you up in a bit. You...
Where did you go dressed like that?
Don't ask. I was called out in the middle of the night.
One of my students' mom passed away.
The dad he lived with for 16 years suddenly tells him he's not his dad
and has abandoned him.
That's hot.
That sounds like a Korean drama.
Is your student holding up well?
Of course not.
He was living an easy life but is now destitute and homeless.
Most people wouldn't be able to accept that.
Besides, he's not of age yet.
- Can we use the law to make his-- - Stop there.
Don't try to fix all the problems you see.
This is how cruel life is.
He should grow up and learn to face reality.
But he's a good student. You can't be so cold-blooded.
This is cold-blooded?
I've been working a divorce case recently.
That's what tests the limits of humanity.
My client, Zhou Zheng Yi
is pretending to fight over custody of his son
and using his son, Zhou Zhou, as a bargaining chip
to force his wife to give up her assets.
Think about that.
Zhou Zhou? Is he a student at my school?
I think so.
He's also in my class.
What a coincidence.
No wonder he's been getting into trouble at school lately.
So it's because he's having problems at home.
I'm warning you.
If you are a lawyer with a conscience
then you should make him lose the lawsuit
for the sake of my student's mental and physical health
and for all the single females out there who still have hope in marriage.
Xiao Ou, are you kidding?
I'm a lawyer. It's my duty to protect my client's interests.
Besides, I'm still single. I don't care about other women's fantasies.
Stop trying to be a savior.
Focus on how to reunite with my brother.
I knew it.
Someone so handsome couldn't possibly be a violent man.
What violent man?
Here, look.
A few days ago, it was said
there was a violent captain who kicked passenger Big V off the plane.
Someone had filmed the incident and the story is reversed.
He's quite good-looking.
I'll have to train for another year to beat you.
Keep practicing. I'm getting old.
Hold on.
Take a break. I'm going to take this call.
- Sure. - Okay.
Wu Zheng still plays so well.
Hey.
Wu Zheng, what took you so long? Did you check Weibo?
No. What's up?
You've been vindicated!
I knew Heaven helps the worthy
and evil befalls the wicked.
Get to the point.
Someone online had filmed the entire incident of Big V's uproar.
They captured his shouting and disruptive behavior
your diplomatic actions to subdue him
and they posted the video online.
It shot up to the number one searched video.
Under pressure from the public
he was forced to write an apology and lost hundreds of thousands of followers.
Big V has become Small V.
And you?
You're now the personification of righteousness
and saved our company a lot of money on marketing.
Do you know a lot of women
are clamoring to fly with our airline to catch a glimpse of you?
Do you think Captain Zheng knows about this?
We should keep a low profile at times like this.
I have a call coming in. Talk to you later.
Hello, Captain Zheng. What are your orders?
Save the act.
I saw the video.
This was a timely reveal of the truth but don't feel complacent just yet.
If not for this kind passenger who filmed and posted the truth
the public would've only believed Mr. Luo's one-sided story.
Even if nobody filmed it, I was going to go online and find eyewitnesses.
I don't believe all the passengers in the cabin would remain silent.
But since you're afraid explaining only makes things worse
and wanted me to tuck my tail between my legs, I did it.
All right, don't get so moody.
Since this is over now, you should focus on the task of flying your plane.
Don't let this affect you.
Remember. No incidents are the best.
Okay.
Let's keep playing!
Mom, I'm leaving.
Take care of yourself over there.
From now on, I won't be making you mad.
Good! Smile! Yes!
Show that expression!
Good! Brimming with enthusiasm!
Yes, good!
Excellent!
Keep your forms!
We're performing on stage, not dancing in the park.
Show some energy! Excellent!
All the men in the audience are watching!
Hello. Who are you looking for?
Look. The second auntie is doing wonderful!
Yes, turn!
Mr. Shi, someone named Xiao Han is here to see you.
Keep it up!
What's this?
Did we drink together?
Did we fight together?
Did we get taken to the police station together?
- How much money do you need? - I don't want money.
I'm looking for my dad.
You're looking for your dad?
If you were looking for my dad, I'd know where he is.
You're looking for your dad? I only saw him once at the funeral.
He's not my dad. My dad is someone else.
Lu Da Zhi said you were good friends with my mom.
You should know where my dad is.
I really don't know.
You...
Were you really good friends with my mom?
Yes.
Really, really good friends?
Don't get the wrong idea.
Your mom and I were really friendly and platonic friends.
I'm really not your dad.
I just found out recently my mom was married before.
Wait, when were you born?
July of 2001.
Oh crap.
Hey, what's up?
Where are you? When are you flying?
I'm not flying today. What is it?
Good. See you at your place later. We'll talk there. I'm heading over.
I--
Where are we?
You'll know when you get out.
Let's go.
Busy day?
Hurry up.
Wait.
Isn't he your friend?
How come... there's such a big difference?
This isn't bad. Your dad is an airline captain.
He's a skilled professional.
And this is the kind of place he lives in?
What's wrong with this place?
It's a good area.
This was also where your grandma lived.
Your dad is a sentimental man.
He said this place has a hint of her here.
Come here.
Keep up.
Coming!
What is it?
I have a present for you.
You?
You want to drink?
Or is your teacher giving you a hard time?
Come in.
It's so messy. Where's Auntie Wen?
Her old man had a brain blood clot a couple days ago.
She said she has to take care of him for a while.
That's so serious. Is he all right?
He's pretty much recovered. He just needs to recuperate now.
Even if he recovers, he most probably can't take care of himself anymore.
So Auntie Wen can't come back anymore?
Not in the short-term. I was thinking of visiting them.
But I got busy and didn't have time. I'll see about it later.
Are you going to be okay here?
It's all right. Who do you think I am?
You attend to so many things in a day.
You never do any housework. How will you survive?
I'm free and easy.
I can leave whenever I want, unlike you.
You average Joes have so much to worry about. That's no fun.
May this average Joe ask if this is your only house?
Just this one. Why?
Shouldn't successful people have two or three properties?
Who says successful people have to have two or three properties?
Then you're not successful.
We can accept that you're not successful
but you should at least be clean!
Your house is so messy. Why don't you tidy up?
Who...
Who says my life isn't...
You brought him here.
What for?
To find you.
What for?
He's looking for his dad.
Looking for his dad?
Looking for his dad.
I want to, I want to find my dad.
Everywhere I go, I'm searching for my dad.
My...
If you're looking for your dad, don't come to me.
Go to the police station and report a case.
He said he was born in July of 2001.
You and Xiao Wei married in 2000 in the seventh month of the Lunar calendar.
You divorced on New Year's Day of 2001. Right?
Calculate for yourself. Whose son is he?
[Old Boy]
