FIRST SEMESTER
Student?
IT'S NOT MY FAULT
Student.
Who is it?
We owe you one, Director.
I have to put it out here that
we usually don't accept students in the middle of the semester,
as our admission standard is quite high.
But you can consider this a special case.
And I appreciate your help.
Tong. Come here, sweetie.
Say hello to your teachers.
QUOTA KID
We don't encourage our students to use designer briefcases.
Get a new one.
I'll make sure it's taken care of.
My apologies.

So what breed of durian is Nonthaburi Province's specialty?
Does anybody know?
Nobody?
Nonthaburi's specialty is the long-stem durian.
It's the most expensive durian in Thailand.
Hi, miss.
QUOTA KID
Quota kid.
Please find yourself a seat.
Class, please turn to page two
of the sheets I gave you, if you have any questions...
-Can I sit here? -Of course, have a seat.
Damn it, I just bought them.
What's the matter?
We don't use profanities in this school.
You mean, damn it?
What is it, quota girl, dear?
Haven't you found yourself a seat yet?
Or will your parents have to
buy you a desk and a chair, too?
Now class, turn to the next page.
THITIMA
Good morning, Thippayanaree ladies.
Our school aims to produce young ladies with an exceptional standard,
both intellectually and disciplinarily.
And today, a group of fine young ladies
has put their capability to use
in further enhancing the school's reputation.
So, my daughters, please give a big round of applause
to our outstanding fellow students.
So, how are things at your school, Tong?
It's fine.
You may have to put up with things a little.
And try to adjust yourself a bit.
Now that your dad has gone through the trouble of finding you a good school,
you don't have to transfer ever again.
Hey guys, can you...
Hey.
What are you doing up here?
How did you get up here?
You're a girl, are you smoking?
What's a boy doing in an all-girls school?
I'm the janitor's son. Is that a problem?
So how did you get up here?
I kicked the fucking door in.
So you're new, then?
How did you guess? Was it the profanity?
I mean, I pressed my foot against the door,
then I used all the strength I had to push the door in.
Happy?
Okay.
So, I better get going.
Hey.
Where are you going? Stay and talk.
Dude, I don't smoke.
I'm Tong.
Jack.
How long have you been here, Jack?
Since I was born. My parents live here.
We never moved.
And you? How long have you been here?
Do you like it here?
No.
Where are you from?
Janreuangwit.
Why did you transfer?
I got pregnant.
I'm joking.
I'll slap you.
Okay, I better get going.
Don't stay late. Lock up after you leave.
Bye.
I'll leave in a minute.
Hey.
Student, why are you still here?
Quota, what are you doing?
My briefcase is missing, Miss.
Is it the Jacob one?
Yes.
We don't encourage our students to use designer briefcases.
It's just more of a problem for us when they go missing.
What about my stuff in there?
Then come in early tomorrow, go to the shop
and get yourself a new backpack.
It's very late now. You should go home.
Class, today we'll be exploring abstract poetry.
The poem "Human" is an abstract poem,
by the poet Chang Saetang.
Do you know why the word human is used repetitively?
The reason is because
the author intends for each of them to represent an individual.
Humans who don't know each other, with nothing attached to one another.
A cluster of humans waiting for a bus together...
Take a look, see if you have any questions.
What's wrong?
Excuse me. Mr. Wanchana told me to get Thitima.
HANDBOOK OF STUDENT REGULATIONS
Turn to page 37, item six.
Then read it out loud.
"No student shall smoke within the school premises or in public.
Violation will result in 30 penalty points to the student's behavior record
and parental notification."
And another thing,
we allow absolutely nobody
up on the school's rooftop.
Do you understand me, Thitima?
Thitima.
Do you understand?
I do.
Take the handbook with you and read it.
Thitima.
Do you still behave the way you did before?
If by that, you mean the drugs,
you can take my pee sample now.
Quota.
I'm Praew.
What was the matter back there?
What do you mean?
Before, in the Thai class. What was the matter with you?
Nothing is wrong.
So you did drugs?
Excuse me.
Jack, did you talk to me two days ago on the rooftop?
I'm joking.
We talked. How could it not happen?
Are you okay?
Okay. So why aren't you in school?
Well, I got suspended.
What? Why?
I punched someone.
Why did you punch someone?
He made fun of my dad, the janitor.
I see.
Did you step on something?
The black stain around the corner.
You can see that stain?
Of course.
I've seen it for a few days now. I don't know what it is.
No one seems to want to clean it.
Last semester, a girl jumped off the building and died.
People have tried to scrub off the bloodstain, but it wouldn't come off.
Ever since it happened,
no one has ever stepped on it and got it on their shoes.
It's like nobody can even see it.
Do you know the girl who jumped?
I think you should go ask your friends. They should know her more than I do.
Young lady.
Call an ambulance. Someone fell off the building.
Call it in now.
Here. Drink.
You fell off the second floor. You're lucky you only broke your arm.
We've notified your parents.
They should be here soon.
Thitima.
Do you know what you're doing?
About what, sir? I don't understand.
Where did you hear about Naparporn?
Who is Naparporn?
ANSWER SHEET - THITIMA KASEMPHAISAN
IT'S NOT MY FAULT
Answer me, where did you hear about this?
About what exactly? I don't get it.
About her test.
Writing this, then jumping off the building.
Who told you about this?
I don't know anything. I've never heard about it before.
And I didn't write this.
If you didn't, then who could have done that?
Good day, Director.
-It's fine, Wanchana. -Let me take it.
Please.
How are you doing? How bad is the injury?
I'm okay, Director.
It's good that you're still all right.
Mr. Wanchana, please go and wait outside.
Of course. Excuse me.
Well, my dear, I would just like to know about what happened.
Were you prancing around? How did you fall off?
I don't know, Director. I really can't remember.
But it was an accident, right, dear?
I really don't remember.
Let's just say,
I have to answer a lot of questions from many people.
The media and so forth.
A student jumping off a school building will affect the school's image.
You didn't mean to jump off the building, did you, dear?
I didn't mean to, Director.
So it was an accident, wasn't it?
Probably.
Then, that is good news, dear.
-He's gorgeous. Look at him. -So beautiful.
-He's so beautiful. -Oh, you.
-Look at that face. -Praew.
I need to talk to you.
We can talk right here, my friends won't mind.
Who is Naparporn?
Where did you hear about this?
Just tell me.
Pinto Naparporn.
P I N T O.
Which grade was she in?
The same as us. Grade 11, class 2.
Was she stressed about school?
What, Pin? She had nothing to worry about.
She's a straight A student.
But she had a fling with a physics teacher.
She threw herself at her Physics Olympiad tutor or something.
And then she got pregnant.
So he was fired.
Nonsense, didn't he stalk her back to her house?
If she wasn't flirting, where would he get the idea?
I DON'T WANT TO BE HERE ANYMORE
WITHOUT ME, EVERYTHING WOULD BE BETTER
UNLESS YOU KNOW THE TRUTH, DON'T SAY ANYTHING
I FEEL LIKE AN OUTCAST
I'M TIRED
I WANT TO DISAPPEAR, JUST SO I CAN STOP THINKING
GIVE ME 1000 LIKES IF YOU DON'T WANT TO SEE MY FACE AGAIN

Good morning, Thippayanaree ladies.
Our school aims to produce young ladies with an exceptional standard...
-What is that? -What?
-How did they fall down? -There's no one up there.
-What a mess. -Whose desk is it?
-And whose backpack is that? -How do you know?
Well, I was startled.
-Whose backpack is it? -That's creepy.
That's high. How creepy.
Student.
Can you drag it a bit quieter, please?
Cast.
Come on, please, can you stop staring?
-You're lucky. -Lucky, how?
No, I meant the desk. It's lucky it didn't break.
Everyone who has sat there seems to be in luck.
NAPARPORN WANGCHERDWONG
So did they catch whoever threw them down?
It's either a human or a ghost.
I don't get why Pin has to take it out on you.
The others did nasty stuff to her. Why doesn't she go after them?
If they still treat her like she doesn't exist,
she may not be able to spook them.
So, have you thought about...
dropping out?
My dad won't let me.
Fuck. My classmates suck. And there's a vengeful ghost.
This fucking school.
Here, I assure you, this one is not haunted.
Yes, just calm down, okay?
Yes, I'm okay.
-That's good. -I'm going to bed now.
I'm hanging up. Have fun watching the school.
I'll see you. Bye.
JACK
GRADE 11 CLASS 2
GET OUT
I'm not fucking going.
I've been through four schools. Just be fucking rational.
Other people treated you like shit. Why do you have to come after me?
Damn it.
Jack?
Hey, what's wrong?
What's the matter?
He's so cool, like wow...
Hey. What are you doing?
Did Wanchana use video footage as proof against you or what?
The cameras were all down.
And they had to work when I was smoking.
What's the ax for?
I took it to ax Pin's desk last night.
Not one desk has a scratch.
What did he say, Dad?
He has no proof, but he wants you to drop out.
What more do you want from me?
You have no proof, so why are you saying I did something wrong?
Do you think you are doing something right by shouting at an adult like this?
I told you, I did nothing.
So what exactly happened?
Nothing happened at all.
If you think it's Jack's fault--
It has nothing to do with Jack.
Don't put the blame on him.
I'm only advising this
for your own sake, Thitima.
So you care about me?
-It is my duty-- -What about Pin?
Have you done anything for Pin's sake?
You had to expel her just for...
a rumor that she got pregnant?
I've never expelled anyone.
This school has never expelled anyone.
And this has nothing to do with Pin.
THIPPAYANAREE SCHOOL DROPOUT FORM
NAPAPORN WANGCHERDWONG WOULD LIKE TO TERMINATE HER STUDENT STATUS
You filled it in for her.
You don't call this expulsion?
Praew.
Listen the fuck away, no one is stopping you.
Nam, stop plugging your ears.
Students, please leave us.
No, stay.
Why, sir? Are you afraid?
A teacher got this student pregnant.
What else could the school have done?
The governors of the school couldn't take it.
Read the reason for her dropping out.
TERMINATE HER STUDENT STATUS BECAUSE "NOT" PREGNANT.
Sometimes, rumors are only rumors.
Pin's ghost came to me last night.
You don't have to believe me, that's up to you.
At first, I didn't understand why it had to be me.
But I think I now know
the reason Pin doesn't want me in this school.
Okay, sir.
You're not going to expel me, that's fine.
If you hate me so much...
Fine. I'll take care of it.
Sir, someone is about to jump off the building.
Move.
Finally, you've got a reason to expel me, sir.
Sir.
Your shoes are stained.
