[theme music]

[Gla] I want Chaba to be happy.

She loves you. I want to help her.

[Thong Ek] I'm merely a poor herbal master.

I don't have much money to give her family.

All my heart and soul belongs to you.

[Chaba] Mine too.

Because when you truly love someone, you must be willing to sacrifice.

Otherwise, you would be called "selfish."

PREVIOUSLY

- Dear. - Come back, Chaba.

I'll find my son another girl.

Even if I get married, I won't throw you aside.

You can move back with me when your parents approve of us.

[gasps] Chaba!

[all shout]

Are you this kind of person behind my back?

[grunts]

[tense music]

What happened?

He's an alcoholic.

He said his joints and ribs ached.

He can't even drink water.

His wife and kids left him too.

He passed out in front of the temple.

[Luangta] Please help him.

[groans]

His liver is definitely failing.

Prepare a mask of cooling herbal clay for his liver

and boil him medicine to get rid of excess liquid and gas.

We'll prepare the Lullaby remedy.

"The Lullaby remedy"?

That's right.

The name might sound nice, as if it will help you sleep.

The truth is it treats, detoxifies and prevents live failure.

Let me help you.

[Thong Ek] The Lullaby remedy requires many kinds of herbs.

Five Herbs, the Nine Plants, root of Aristolochia pierei.

Barleria strigosa, the pollen from five lotus flowers,

the Four Pollen, agar wood, spurge,

Alyxia reinwardtii, cinnamon, licorice,

fused sodium borate, palm leaf powder, otter civet, and borneol.

We'll use flower water as the solvent.

We'll grind and place it in a bronze bowl.

We'll bind it with candles then mold it into ingots.

- Are you almost done? - Yes.

[action music]

Turn the small Indian civet into powder.

[action music]

[birds chirping]

[Chongko] All right.

The rock flour is ready.

I've sun-dried it well so it doesn't smell anymore.

You should start grinding the ingredients.

[light music]

[grunts]

[sighs]

It's very difficult to grind tree bark.

I will lose my hands before we get our thanaka powder.

It will be worth it.

Your husband will be all over you

after a few sniffs.

[romantic music]

I'm already crazy about her.

[moans]

You two can't spend any time apart, can you?

Chaba always helps me make medicine.

So I want to help her make cosmetics that other women make.

You are too sweet.

[Chongko sighs, clicks tongue]

I'm so jealous.

You should accept Piek's love already.

That way, you won't have to be jealous of anyone.

Yes.

He's right.

Piek's always been there to help you.

When you wanted fragrant herbs and he got them for you.

[Chaba] He even volunteered to be your guinea pig.

You should open up to him.

[sighs]

[Piek] Chongko.

Wow. Did you telepathically call him over?

[Piek] I'm here, Chongko.

Hello, Thong Ek, Chaba.

I guess we're on a double date. [giggles]

Who's your date? Why are you here?

[sighs, clicks tongue]

Look, Chongko.

I brought you a small Indian civet liquid so you can use it as an ingredient.

I already have some.

You can have more. This small Indian civet is quite rare.

This way, you don't have to find it yourself.

Please accept it.

[soft chuckle]

[Piek] Come on.

Please accept it. Here.

What are you doing, by the way?

We're making thanaka powder.

Can I help with anything?

[comical music]

Are you mad at me or something?

No. Here.

Take it.

Slice these kaffir limes.

Okay. Sure.

I'll use these kaffir limes to kill the Indian civets.

- Hurry up. - All right.

[whimsical music]

[whimsical music continues]

[sniffs, moans]

It smells great.

[light music]

[groans] It smells nice.

I thought you had to smoke it for three to five days.

Where did you get it?

Chongko gave me

some of her Thanaka powder.

She wanted me to use it first.

- [sniffs] - [giggles]

- That tickles. - It smells nice.

[giggles]

Chaba.

Since we got married, we've never tried to make a baby.

Do you want to try it today?

[gasps]

Let's do it now. Let's go.

[romantic music]

[romantic music continues]

[distant thud]

[both gasp]

What's that sound?

[grunts]

[both screaming]

[screaming continues]

- [thuds] - [grunts]

[both screaming]

[thuds]

- [panting] - [screaming]

[bird squawking]

[grunting]

- [ghost 1] Let me go. - [ghost 2] Don't leave me.

[ghost 2] Don't leave me.

- [Chaba] Take this! - [thumps]

- [thumping] - [grunting]

- [screaming] - [grunting]

- [grunts] - [pants]

[grunts]

[chuckling]

- [sighs] - [chuckles]

What?

Dear.

What's so funny?

Nothing. I'm just happy.

- [baron chuckles] - Oh?

[chuckling continues]

I cannot believe Father.

He hired servants to dress up as ghosts.

He's probably laughing right now.

[sighs]

Come on. Don't get mad.

Think of it as a life experience.

What's wrong with you? How can you think that was fun?

The more he tries to stop us, the faster I want to give him a grandchild.

He will be so busy with his grandchild and he won't have time to bother us.

What do you think?

Are you still in the mood to make a baby?

I'm always in the mood when you're next to me.

[growls]

[giggles]

You're crazy and horny.

I hope nothing else will stop us anymore.

[both giggling]

Wait.

- What now? - Wait.

A mosquito bit my ass.

Let it bite you. I can't hold it any longer.

- Come on. - [giggles]

- [sighs] - [giggling]

[Chaba giggling continues]

- [Thong Ek] Chaba. - [Chaba] It tickles.

- [Chaba] Don't touch me there. - [Thong Ek] What?

[Thong Ek] Where do I touch then? Can I touch you here?

[Chaba] Here's fine.

[both giggling]

[Thong Ek] Chaba, be gentle.

[Thong Ek] Chaba.

[birds chirping]

[light music]

[groans]

[grunts, gasps]

Thong Ek.

Thong Ek.

[Chaba] Thong Ek.

[screaming]

[whimpering]

[screams]

Chaba, what's wrong?

[screams, pants]

So you sleep with your eyes open.

I didn't know. You scared me to death.

My grandpa and friends are the only ones who have seen it.

[soft chuckle]

I look funny, don't I?

Someone once said, people who sleep

with their eyes open are possessive of their treasures.

I have no treasures.

You're my only treasure.

You don't have to be possessive of me.

Because you are the only one I will always love.

You're the cutest.

I will try to wake up before you so my eyes don't scare you.

That's all right. You're my husband. I must love you for who you are.

Same goes for you. I may have some weird habits you don't know about.

You must love me despite those habits too, all right?

Is it even possible for you to be any weirder?

Hey!

[yawns]

How boring. They're having a moment. I'm jealous.

Thong Ek, come on. Let's open our clinic.

- Okay. - Are you leaving now?

Of course, Chaba. We're already late.

Hang on. Last night, did you two...

cuckoo?

What do you mean by "cuckoo"?

The cuckoo bird.

- Cuckoo. - Cuckoo.

- Cuckoo. - Enough. Stop already.

Fine. [chuckles]

Cuckoo.

I'll leave now.

I'll go with you.

You just woke up. You can do the house chores first.

You haven't even eaten breakfast.

You haven't either.

I'll eat a banana for breakfast.

I'll get going then.

I'll cook your food.

- Thank you, dear. - [giggles]

[groans] I want to have a wife too.

Let's go, Thong Ek.

Okay.

Here.

[whimsical music]

Hey.

- Thong Ek. - What?

So what did you do last night?

It's not your business, is it?

[giggling]

- Cuckoo. - It's personal.

- Can you say "cuckoo?" - "Cuckoo!"

[all giggling]

[Piek] Cuckoo.

[sighs] House chores again?

I can't slack off.

My husband went to work. I must do the house chores.

I'll have to raise our baby too.

I have to work and fight. I can do it!

The weather is quite hot. You should drink a lot of water.

- Okay. - How's your husband?

- Is his leg better now? - Yes, it is.

Great. You can always come back to me.

- Thank you. - [Chongko] Thong Ek.

- What? - Where's Piek?

He didn't come with me.

Gosh, Piek.

[sighs]

[Chongko gasps]

- Thong Ek. - What?

- Look. - What is it?

[lively music]

NICHKHUN HORVEJKUL SPECIAL GUEST

[lively music]

Oh, my god.

[in English] [Jeenleng] Follow me.

- Jeenleng. - [Jeenleng] Yes.

Who is he?

A Korean nobleman.

Please welcome him for me.

I need to put these away. I'll be back.

- Jeenleng. - Take care of him please.

- [in English] Quickly come with me. - [Chongko] Korea?

[in Thai] What is "Korea?"

If I tell them the truth that he's actually a prince,

everyone will be shocked. I can't.

[pop music]

Oh, my.

His good looks are blinding me.

[Thong Ek] You're exaggerating.

If someone's good looks

could blind you, you would already be blind because of me.

Damn.

- [bird squawking] - [groans]

[clicks tongue]

- [Chongko] Mister. - Chongko.

[panting]

Hello.

[Chongko] My name is Chongko.

I'm the most beautiful lady in Tha Chalong.

If you need me to do something, please don't hesitate to tell me.

Chongko, he's a foreigner. I don't think he understands Thai.

You're right.

You can speak Thai to me. I can speak it a little bit.

- He speaks Thai. - Wow.

[giggles]

That's great.

[Mi-rae] Oppa.

[pop music]

RASRI BALENCIAGA CHIRATHIVAT SPECIAL GUEST

[Kyong-sok] Please be careful.

[Kyong-sok] Come.

I'm Kyong-sok.

I'm Mi-rae.

[Kyong-sok] We're from Korea.

We hear that this old city has a long history.

You're full of natural resources.

We wanted to see it with our own eyes.

- I see. - [Kyong-sok] Look, Mi-rae.

The market is enormous.

[gasps]

I want to walk around

but

right now,

I don't have any energy.

- [Kyong sok] Oh, no. - [Chongko] Oh, no.

Let's get her in the shade.

- This way. Be careful. - [Kyong-sok] She fainted.

Be careful.

[clears throat]

[clicks tongue]

Wow.

What a devil.

Is she trying to flirt with Kyong-sok

or Thong Ek?

If it's Thong Ek,

I will stop her.

Because I don't want Chaba to be sad.

Treat a friend's husband like your own husband.

I must protect Thong Ek from her.

Yes. Why am I talking by myself here?

Sniff it first, then take a deep breath.

[light music]

[exhales slowly]

It's refreshing.

[soft chuckle]

Now, you have to drink it to the last drop.

What?

Must I drink this?

Did you have to ask?

Just do what he says.

Gosh.

That is theppajit herbal powder. You can sniff and drink it.

It will help with your blood circulation.

Mmm.

Do you feel better now?

If so, you should try standing up.

You don't have to sit like this.

- It seems like you... - Chongko.

Are you on your period or something?

Why are you so moody?

Drink this. It will brighten up your mood.

[Kyong-sok chuckles]

This medicine seems to have many benefits.

That's right. There are many types of herbal powder.

It treats many symptoms.

I'll leave this with you.

You're not used to the weather here.

You might feel sick again.

Thank you very much.

By the way, why do you have

so many bottles of medicine with you?

Oh, I'm an herbal master.

Really?

If that's the case, did you make this yourself?

That's right.

Then...

can I give it a try?

Of course. You don't need to be sick to use it.

It will freshen you up and give you energy.

Put some under your tongue.

- I'll get it for you. - Thank you.

- Too much of it might be spicy. - [Kyong-sok] I see.

Here you go.

[light music]

How is it, Oppa?

Mmm.

Siwonhada.

Siwonhada.

"Siwonhada."

- It's refreshing. - [both] I see!

It's refreshing.

- Siwonhada. - [Chongko] I see.

- Siwonhada. - [Kyong-sok] Siwonhada.

Right, siwonhada.

Siwonhada.

- "Siwonhada." - Yes.

What is this?

It's a jar.

- "A jar?" - "A jar?"

Oppa, can you buy me one?

I want to ferment kimchi with it.

Sure.

I've been eating your kimchi all my life.

I wonder how kimchi will taste if you use

a Thai jar.

[giggles]

Hang on.

Both of you have known each other since you were young?

Since we were born, actually.

- Since they were born? - We are siblings.

- Siblings? - I see.

[gasps] Siblings!

[Chongko] They're siblings.

[laughs]

They're siblings.

Thai people are funny.

- Yes. - You laugh because we're siblings.

[laughing]

You're siblings. That's crazy.

I want to try it too. I wonder how it tastes.

[Chongko] Hey.

Don't you try flirting with her.

I will tell Chaba myself. Watch me.

What?

I'm not, Chongko.

You don't have to be jealous.

I'm engaged.

- [Chongko] Really? - His name is Song Joong-ki.

[gasps] Congratulations.

By the way,

do you

have a girlfriend?

No, I'm single.

You are?

[gasps]

Really?

[sighs] That's great. You're single.

In that case,

can I be in your fan club?

[Chongko giggles]

Let me tell you now. If you get to taste me...

I mean, if you get to taste my chili paste...

- Oh, I see. - you will forget about kimchi.

Siamese ladies are pretty open, aren't they?

Please don't misunderstand. Not every girl is like her.

[chuckles]

Nothing is wrong with that.

[Mi-rae] Women should express how they feel.

Why would you keep it a secret?

You're right. Your words are very wise.

Come. I'll walk you through the market.

[giggles]

All women are the same, despite their origin.

They didn't like each other earlier. Now, they are inseparable.

- [both chuckle] - You're right.

[giggles]

Mi-rae, I don't want to tell you this

but when I first saw Kyong-sok,

I wanted to kiss him on the cheek 20 times.

But I had to hold myself back

because I already have a lover myself.

Do you think

Kyong-sok is that handsome?

Of course.

I really wish to know what I must do

to have a man like that for myself.

In Korea,

everyone man on the street

looks like Kyong-sok.

- Really? - Yes.

Is that heaven on Earth?

So...

what must I do

to get those men?

[groaning]

[gasps]

How about you start by learning Korean?

Okay.

Here's your first word.

If you want to call

an older man,

you must call him "Oppa."

- Oppa. - Yes.

Oppa.

Oppa.

Oppa.

Oppa.

[light music]

I bet it's very tiring to be an herbal master.

Why do you like doing that job?

[Thong Ek] It's my life.

I treat people, gather herbs in the forest, and make medicine.

I don't feel like it's a tiring task.

Give me your arm.

[light music]

Your Cun, Guan, and Chi are normal.

The state of your health is very good.

Did you just use three fingers?

Yes.

My index finger checks your air.

[Thong Ek] My middle finger checks your fire.

My ring finger checks your water.

I check to see if they beat regularly.

I give up.

I can't feel anything. [chuckles]

How many days will you stay here?

Two days.

Then we'll head North to Payap precinct.

Enjoy your trip.

Thank you.

I'll visit you once more before we leave.

All right.

[tranquil music]

- [Thong Ek] Do you want more? - Thank you.

Wow. I can't believe it.

Has it been two weeks since Chaba got married?

But to be honest,

I want time to pass quickly.

I want to see children running around our house.

[Yeuan giggles]

If Chaba has a child,

will you stop hating your son-in-law?

[grunts]

I don't want a grandchild.

[both scoff]

I'll wait and see.

[chuckling]

[light music]

Chaba, check carefully.

There might be herbs that are running out.

Then we would need to get more.

All right.

[sighs]

I'm so happy, Thong Ek.

Are you happy to be with me?

I'm happy because I get to do what I like.

That is to make medicine.

Is that so?

Did you marry me, so that you can make medicine

and not because you love me?

[groans] What a whining baby.

I started loving you before I loved medicine.

I love you because you love the villagers.

You're nice to everyone.

When you make medicine,

I can see that you put your heart

and your love into every detail.

That's the reason why I fell in love with you then.

They say men look handsome when they work.

I guess the saying is true.

You're a narcissist.

Am I not handsome though?

Let me look at you carefully.

[fake grunting]

[laughs]

What's so funny?

Am I not handsome?

You are.

But you cannot wink at anyone else like this, okay?

Or you'll be dead meat.

Okay.

[giggles] You're insane.

Oh? Oh.

Look.

[chuckling]

[smooches]

- [Perm] Don't run, Rampoey. - [Rampoey chuckling]

- Let's see. - [Perm] Be careful.

[chuckles]

Didn't you make fried dumplings?

Why do they look like this?

Normal fried dumplings are too boring. This is my new recipe.

[women groaning]

I told her to use your recipe.

- But she was stubborn. - [chuckles]

They might look weird, but they look better than Chaba's fried dumplings.

[Saiyood] When Chaba made hers,

almost all the dumplings exploded.

[both chuckle]

Talking about her makes me miss her.

Then,

should we ask Chaba to come back?

- [baron] Let's go. - Come on now.

Do not stand in the way of her happiness.

Let's try them. They look weird but I wonder how they taste.

[stutters]

[Rampoey laughs]

- How is it, Mother? - [Saiyood] How is it?

I can't bite it.

[Saiyood and Rampoey chuckle]

[Yeuan] You can't even bite it.

One salung per piece, please.

- What? - Wow.

Why do you need so much money?

I'm saving up to buy Chaba's child a toy.

I want to play with a baby.

[Saiyood] Oh, no.

We're back to talking about Chaba again. [sighs]

It's not just me.

You can't cut Chaba out of your life either.

No.

I let her go. I didn't cut her out. She's my daughter.

Should we visit her?

I miss her too.

Yes!

Let's do it.

Yes.

Chaba.

Thong Ek.

Why's it so quiet? Are they not home?

[sighs]

- Oh, no. - Oh, no.

[screaming]

Fire!

- Fire! - Fire!

- Chaba. - Be careful.

- Chaba. - Chaba.

- Be careful. - Are you in there?

- Be careful. - Chaba.

- [Saiyood] Chaba. - Oh, my god.

Why are you are all here?

What are you doing? It's smoking everywhere.

I'm making curry.

- [Saiyood] What? - I guess I put on too much firewood.

[all sigh]

Please sit.

That's good. You're making curry and repelling mosquitoes at the same time.

[Yeuan groans]

I missed you so much.

Enough. Let me talk to my daughter.

Chaba, what curry did you make?

- Morning glory curry. - Really?

I followed every step of your recipe.

Really?

[whispers] Morning glory curry.

- Yeuan. - Yes.

[Yeuan] I want to try.

[Yeuan whispers] We shouldn't have.

[gasps]

[Saiyood] Well.

It doesn't taste like my recipe.

I thought so too.

I guess I messed up the ingredients.

Are you going to make your husband eat it?

- Be careful. He might run away. - Yes.

Chaba, throw it away.

I brought you a lot of food but your mother cooked it.

We better eat the food we brought.

[Yeuan] Eat this.

I'll throw it away then.

- Good. - Throw it away.

[comical music]

[sighs]

I feel guilty seeing her like this.

Should I move here for a while

to teach her how to do house chores?

[Perm] That's not a good idea.

You taught her for decades and look at her now.

A few more days of teaching won't make a difference.

- I agree. - You should let her learn on her own.

Really?

[soft chuckle]

[Saiyood] I'm worried.

[Thong Ek groans]

- No more patients. - [Piek] Thong Ek.

We'll visit Luangta at the temple.

- We'll be back to cut the herbs later. - Okay.

I'll bring you food from the temple.

Don't. I'll eat my wife's food.

What? Wow, Thong Ek.

You don't have to feel bad for her.

Everyone knows that your wife sucks at cooking.

The taste isn't important.

What's important is that she made it.

- Wow. - Wow. What a hero.

We'll see how long you can keep up with it.

All right. Just you wait and see.

He seems quite scared of his wife.

I agree. His wife is like a...

- Monster? - Mother.

You're right. She's as strict as my mother.

[both chuckling]

[Thong Ek] Dear, I'm home.

Oh, my.

Hello.

[baron] Where were you?

How could you leave her alone at home?

I was treating patients at the clinic.

[scoffs]

You're taking advantage of her.

Don't you want to help your wife with the house chores?

We divide up the work.

[Chaba] Thong Ek goes to work

and I do the house chores.

You never help Mother with the house chores too, Father.

- Enough. Stop fighting. Let's eat. - [baron grunts]

Thong Ek, come eat. The food is getting cold.

I cooked a lot of food today.

Thank you.

Come.

- [Yeuan] Come. - [Saiyood] Come.

Thong Ek, drop the manners.

Make yourself at home.

- Mother. - What?

This is his home.

Oh, we're the guests, right?

That's right.

[nervous chuckle]

Let's eat.

Here you go.

[romantic music]

- Dear. - Thank you.

[inaudible dialogue]

Dear.

Did we get everything? My arms are about to fall off.

Well, let's see.

We've got fish, pork, coconuts.

Yes, we can go home now.

- All right. Let's go home. - [Chaba] Yes.

Wait.

- What is it? - I forgot to buy eggs.

- Eggs? - Come.

[sighs]

You came to deliver it yourself, Gla?

I'm sorry for the trouble.

It's my pleasure.

The last batch was damp.

I want to make it right.

I must supervise every step

or the reputation of my mother's mill will be ruined.

I gave you extra rice, free of charge.

Thank you very much, Gla.

[whimsical music]

Chaba.

I think I need another mirror.

I ran out of money.

I'll buy it for you when I save enough money.

Then, that's fine.

I don't want it anymore.

I'd like to buy a mirror please.

[tense music]

You can't even afford

a mirror.

How can you make your wife happy?

- Gla. - Chaba.

This mirror is yours now.

No.

I'll buy it myself.

Miss, please keep it on hold for me.

I will definitely come back when I have the money.

[tense music]

What happened to you?

What's with these mosquito bites?

[exhales sharply]

Why didn't you tell me?

It's not a big deal. They'll go away soon.

[Gla] It's a big deal.

What if you get sick from them?

This proves you haven't been taking care of Chaba.

She's suffering because of you.

I shouldn't have let her go.

What will happen if her parents find out?

Gla, don't tell my parents.

I'm not suffering at all.

Don't make a big deal out of this.

Thong Ek, let's go home.

[Chaba] Come on.

Chaba.

You forgot your mirror.

I'll go now.

See you later.

[somber music]

Wait.

[somber music]

Gla, wait.

Take it back.

Is Thong Ek not happy about it?

No.

I don't want it.

Gla.

I'm already married. You shouldn't do that to me

especially in front of my husband.

You're proudly calling him your husband.

I don't want you back.

I just want him to take better care of you.

I just did that to motivate him.

Thanks.

I know my life isn't as luxurious as it used to be.

But this is what I chose.

I must adapt and learn.

Also,

I'm very happy when I spend time with Thong Ek.

You didn't have to say that.

Here.

Give it to Pong.

[light music]

You'll always be my friend, Chaba.

And if you care about your friend,

you should visit me sometime.

Also...

I want to hug you one last time.

You can't.

It'll really be my last time.

[Chaba grunts]

[whimsical music]

You should go.

Go to your husband.

[heavy breathing]

- [grunts] - [thumps]

I hope that will be my last time punching you too.

[sighs deeply]

[upbeat music]

[groans]

[tranquil music]

What's wrong?

You came back without me from the market.

Are you still mad about Gla?

Who wouldn't be mad after seeing both of you?

I didn't take the mirror. I gave it back.

I'm not mad about the mirror.

Then why are you mad?

You should already know. You didn't need to ask.

[comical music]

[sighs]

What?

[playful music]

What are you doing, dear?

[exhales]

[sighs]

Wow. Do you know how to sew a mosquito net?

This is new.

I'm doing what I can.

[Chaba] What is this?

You bought kaffir limes and lemongrass to repel mosquitoes, right?

I don't need anyone else to say that I don't treat my wife right.

Are you still on that?

Gla was right.

I shouldn't have brought you down with me.

Do you think I can't handle it?

Maybe you can handle it now but you might think differently in the future.

I don't give up on things so easily.

But if you feel uncomfortable here, please don't hesitate to go.

You can leave me.

[somber music]

You're underestimating my love for you.

Do I look like a weak girl? You're chasing me away.

I'm not. Please don't start a fight.

What if I tell you

that you can go to Pong if you want?

How will you feel?

[somber music]

Fine.

If you want to leave me so badly, you can go.

[grunts]

[exhales deeply]

[birds chirping]

[whimsical music]

[sighs]

He really won't come back, will he?

Fine.

I'm the type that keeps my word.

[sheet rustling]

[Piek] Hurry, Toon.

- [Piek] Hurry. Be careful. - [Toon] It's quite heavy.

- Chaba. - [Toon] Slow down.

[Piek] You came at the right time.

Look.

Do you like it?

Whose is it?

Well, Thong Ek asked us to gather wood

so he could make you this vanity

- for when you dress up. - Yes.

I want another mirror.

I ran out of money.

I'll buy it for you when I save enough money.

You know, Thong Ek worked on this all night.

- We offered to help but he said no. - Yes.

Where is he now?

He left before sunrise.

He probably went to get herbs.

Hold this for me.

[both grunting]

Chaba.

Chaba.

Toon, hold it for a second.

Chaba.

[strained voice] Piek.

Don't worry about Chaba.

- Worry about me first. It's heavy. - [Piek] I'm sorry.

Help me. [grunts]

- Chaba. - [grunts]

- Hey. - Chaba.

- This is bad. - Yes. Their fight seems pretty bad.

- I meant you! Keep your arm to yourself. - Oh, I see.

No one is here.

[sighs]

But this is my mother's hideout.

And she's very sick.

I asked for your help because I don't know who else to turn to.

How did she escape?

[tense music]

Thong Ek.

I understand if you're mad at my mother,

but please treat her when we find her.

She is very sick.

I can treat her,

but I will turn her in afterward to the authorities.

[exhales]

[panting]

[Thong Ek] Are you all right? Let me help you.

Thank you.

Thong Ek.

[somber music]

Chaba.

[sniffles]

I was being sarcastic last night. I didn't think you would...

I'm...

I'm on my way to treat patients.

That's why I brought my medicine kit.

I don't care if you brought just the kit or your whole inventory.

It's just for show.

I won't trust you anymore.

I shouldn't have married you.

And I don't want that stupid mirror.

[tense music]

[Thong Ek] Chaba.

Thong Ek, you should tell her the truth.

Should I talk to her myself?

No, you don't want people to know,

so I won't tell anyone.

[romantic music]

She was clearly hurt.

Why don't you beg for forgiveness?

I was hurt too.

She probably said what was really on her mind.

All I ever did was make her suffer.

I don't have money or anything to give her.

She probably feels uncomfortable living here.

I feel ashamed too.

[sighs] Thong Ek.

She isn't mad because you're poor.

She's jealous.

The problem is she caught you with Pong.

Piek.

Looking at them now, will they be able to "cuckoo" each other again?

It might take time.

[Chongko] Thong Ek is having an affair with Pong?

What? I thought you told me

Pong settled down with Gla.

Why is she back to Thong Ek again?

[whimpers] I don't know.

But Gla and Pong aren't married yet.

She can still change her mind.

Could an old flame

be reignited?

[gasps]

[sobs]

Hey, calm down first.

All right, Chaba?

I'm just guessing.

I could be wrong.

You and Thong Ek just married recently.

Is he looking for another girl already?

I think

you should talk it out with him.

[whimpers]

[sniffles] No.

I refuse to go back there.

I'll go home.

And I'll break up with Thong Ek.

What?

Come on, Chaba.

- Calm down. - [sobbing]

Hey.

Stop crying.

[crying]

Calm down.

[Chongko] Stop crying.

[whimpers]

Chaba passed out from crying.

Thank you for telling me.

I think you two should talk it out.

I don't want to see her with those swollen eyes.

[dramatic music]

Chongko said you wanted to break up.

Don't you love me anymore?

I should be the one asking you that.

Aren't you the one

getting back together with Pong?

That's not true.

I had to help Pong with something,

but she wants to keep it a secret.

Please don't think too much about it.

How can I not?

We just got married,

but you're still close with your ex-lover.

You don't really love me. Your heart isn't loyal.

You're dumping me after you got me.

Dear.

Think about

all the things we went through to get married.

If I were really that type of person,

would I fight through every obstacle

that almost cost me my life just to marry you?

We are married today

because my heart was loyal

and true to you.

I can't love anyone else.

I'm sorry for hurting you, Chaba.

[dramatic music]

I said some bad stuff to you too.

[sighs]

I never thought

that I could be this silly.

I was never like this before.

Why am I jealous because of you?

Because I lost your trust.

But please trust me that I will never love anyone else.

Look into my eyes.

[Thong Ek] Trust me.

My eyes will never lie to you.

Do you like the vanity I made you?

[sniffles]

I like it.

Just the vanity? What about me?

I love you.

[romantic music]

- [rooster crows] - [coughs]

[gasps]

Chaba.

[coughing]

- Chaba. - [Chaba coughing]

Chaba, where are you?

[coughing]

Chaba.

Chaba.

Are you all right?

[both coughing]

Let's go.

[whimsical music]

I burned mangrove bark. I wanted to use its ash to wash your clothes.

Oh, gosh. You almost burned down the house because you wanted to wash clothes.

You don't need to do all that for my clothes.

I just feel like they aren't clean. I wanted to wash them

and smoke them with fragrance.

My mother once taught me about it. I'm trying to remember.

Did you burn all my mangrove bark?

Well...

Maybe.

I can wash them next time.

We can use soapberry.

How?

Smash it then shake it underwater. It will form bubbles.

We can use those bubbles.

I will do it next time.

But I need some motivation first though.

[soft chuckle]

My wife is the best.

[chuckles]

I'm just afraid I might not be good enough for you.

Why do you say that?

You help me with everything. You do it well too.

You're more than enough for me.

I love you.

[romantic music]

You keep saying that.

I get embarrassed every time.

Do you not want me to say it?

I do.

[both giggling]

Say it again.

- I love you. - [giggles]

- [Thong Ek] I love you. - [giggles]

- I love you. - That's enough.

I really love you.

I'm embarrassed.

[soft chuckle]

[sighs]

We almost lost our home.

[Chongko] He loves me.

He loves me not.

He loves me.

He loves me not.

- He loves me. - Peekaboo!

[both scream]

You're insane.

Why do you always sneak up on me? I get scared.

I'm sorry, my beloved Chongko.

Chongko, why were you picking a flower?

Look at all the petals.

The petals may fall,

but my heart rises.

I don't believe a playboy like you.

[scoffs]

I'm serious, Chongko.

Look at me.

I'm very serious.

What about you?

Do you love me?

Do you love me?

No.

I know that I'm just a lowlife. I have nothing to offer.

I'm ugly too.

You will never look my way.

But I never joke about my feelings toward you.

Well.

Maybe, I joked around a bit at first.

But right now,

I think of you every time I breathe.

Do you love me too?

I love you.

I didn't want to love you.

You didn't want to love me.

That means you love me.

Hey, did you just tell me you love me?

I guess so.

[groans]

- Yes! - [thumps]

Chongko accepted my love.

My dream finally came true.

Chongko.

Chongko. What's wrong, Chongko?

Did you faint?

Oh, no.

She just passed out for no reason.

I gave the authorities to arrest my mother once they see her.

That's right.

[pants]

That's why she ran away even though she was sick.

We don't know where she went. This is all because of you. You're cruel.

I don't care if you think I'm cruel. She threatened to kill you.

What kind of mother threatens to kill her kid?

It's our family. Our business. Stay out of it.

But you are my woman,

how can I not be worried?

[romantic music]

I will find my mother.

Don't make it worse than it is.

Where will you go?

Anywhere, as long as I find her.

What a big talker.

I won't let you.

[groans]

[grunting] Gla.

Try getting out of this.

Let's see, if you run into a thief in the forest,

will you be able to run away?

Let me go.

I told you to not act all tough.

If you want to go,

I'll go with you.

But I'm busy right now.

I'm still working.

Go home.

[panting]

[Pong] Let me go.

Come on.

Get inside.

Go.

[romantic music]

[sighs]

Why are all the women around me so stubborn and scary as hell?

[man 1] Luangta.

Help.

[man 1] Help us.

My brother is vomiting and has nonstop diarrhea.

Another one?

All my staff has the same problem.

- Put him with the rest. - All right.

[man 1] Stay strong.

Why are they having diarrhea at the same time?

Luangta, hello.

All right. Please check on them.

They're all vomiting like crazy.

[Luangta] I called you here

because I don't know what's going on. Please help them.

Chaba, stay here. Wait for me right here.

[tense music]

- Master, help us. - [Thong Ek] All right.

Stay here, Chaba.

- Okay. - [Luangta] Good.

[Thong Ek] How many days have you been vomiting?

Food poisoning?

- The diarrhea stopped. - I see.

I guess they ate dirty food.

Food easily becomes spoiled in summer.

I see.

That's a relief.

I was afraid cholera might come back again.

Cholera?

Yes.

The plaque spread when you were just kids.

Many people have died all around town.

We had to leave dead bodies for the vultures at the temple.

That sounds scary.

Please don't let it happen again.

[light music]

What is that, Gla?

Glin.

What's in the bag?

Why are you hiding it?

It's just some things I bought.

Is it something unusual?

Why are you hiding it?

Come on. Let me take a peek.

Don't open it, Glin.

[sighs]

[Glin] A shawl.

I like the colors.

Didn't you say it was yours?

[Glin] Since when do you use a shawl?

[sighs]

Tell me who you bought them for.

I...

I bought it...

for...

for you.

Really?

I'll take it then.

[whimsical music]

I know you didn't buy it for me.

If you bought it for Pong, I think the colors suit her.

You have quite an eye.

[soft chuckle]

[sighs]

What are you thinking?

I understand how my grandpa felt

when he was worried about me.

Worried?

I'm worried about you.

Me?

If there are many patients

who share the same symptoms,

you must stay away.

Are you afraid I'll get it?

Yes.

But...

aren't you scared for yourself?

I'm an herbal master. I know how to protect myself.

Promise me that you will stay away from us.

Then,

I'll help you from afar.

How about I help you prepare medicine?

You're the cutest when you listen to me.

If I'm cute,

then you must love me a lot.

I'm already going crazy because of you.

[romantic music]

Where are you going?

It's my business.

What is it?

It's for you.

I'm sorry about your mother.

I don't want your money or anything from you.

What mistake did I make?

Why must I worry that you might be sad or mad at me?

I'm stuck with this guilt.

I ordered you to take it. So, take it.

You can't buy people's feelings with money.

Don't make me mad.

You're making yourself mad.

Take it.

[sighs]

You are

so self-centered.

[romantic music]

Why must I worry that you might be mad at me?

Faster, Chui.

I'm exhausted. [pants]

This isn't fun.

[Rampoey] I'll go on Imm instead then.

Please don't, Rampoey.

I'm old now. My back and knees are weak too.

You're better off riding Chui. Take your time.

Let's stop, Rampoey.

No one wants to play with me.

Rampoey.

What a whiney baby.

Come ride on my back, I'll be your horse.

Yes!

- Come up. Wow, you're heavy. - [laughing]

- Let's go. - [laughing continues]

What are you two playing? It seems fun.

- Chaba. - Chaba.

[both giggling]

So you still remember that you have a home.

I thought you forgot about your house and your parents.

How could I?

Is Father home yet?

He'll be back soon.

Lately, he's been coming home early. He's been on track.

- Snacks are here. - [Saiyood] That's great.

[Saiyood] Let's eat.

[Yeuan] Chaba, eat up.

Are you well-fed over there?

[Yeuan chuckles]

I am.

Hang on.

Was this vegetable cleaned well?

Of course. I cleaned every leaf of it myself.

What water did you use?

Rainwater. Is something wrong?

I actually came here today to warn you to watch what you eat.

- I see. - [Chaba] Late this morning,

many people almost died from excessive diarrhea.

What? Diarrhea?

Don't tell me it's cholera.

What's cholera?

Rampoey, cholera is a disease where people die from excessive pooping.

It happened once a long time ago.

However, Thong Ek says it isn't cholera.

The weather's just hot so people are more prone to having diarrhea.

Everyone should watch what you eat.

- All right. - [Saiyood] Okay.

I missed you.

I missed you too.

- [giggles] - Ouch.

It hurts. You play too harshly.

Gosh. You're so fragile, aren't you?

[laughing]

Shall we catch crickets for fun?

You? Catching crickets?

Well, you find it fun, right?

- Yes. Let's go. - [Yeuan] What?

- Yeah! - [Chaba] Let's go.

- [Yeuan] What's with them? - [Saiyood] Be careful.

I can't believe she's really married.

Time flew by fast, didn't it?

Yes. [chuckles]

Are you heading to the rice mill?

Do I own a tea house?

You're in the mood for jokes. You seem happy.

[Glin] Pong!

Pong!

[tense music]

Pong!

What's wrong?

Pong is sick, Gla. What do we do?

Drink this.

[tense music]

How is she?

Her Cun is abnormal.

What does that mean?

Her body is weak. She needs to rest.

Let's rest at home then.

Wait.

If she goes on a rickshaw now, she might feel sick again.

She should stay here until she feels better.

But I need to deliver rice to a ship.

[somber music]

I'll leave her in your care.

I'll ask Glin to pick her up.

[somber music]

[sighs]

Do you feel better now?

I feel a lot better, Thong Ek.

That's good to hear.

Why don't you tell Gla the truth?

[sighs]

I get a headache just by looking at his face.

Please don't tell anyone about this, Thong Ek.

I already promised you that I wouldn't.

[comical music]

I can't hear a thing.

[groans] That's my husband. Let go.

[grunts]

Should I just barge in?

No, I can't.

An older woman must remain calm.

[sighs]

[exhales heavily]

Stay calm. He will come back to eat your curry anyway.

I'll just ask him then.

[sighs]

[Thong Ek] Dear.

[playful music]

[heavy breathing]

Stay calm.

[Chaba] Stay calm.

Stay calm.

What are you doing, dear?

Do you see me plucking my armpit hair?

Where were you? Why did you come home so late?

Well...

Are you done cooking yet?

Almost.

I have a guest who will join us for lunch.

[gasps]

Don't tell me that it's Pong.

How did you know?

[pants, groans]

[loud thudding]

Please don't misunderstand. Pong got sick.

So Gla brought her to me.

Gla brought her to you?

This must be his plan.

Hang on. Don't take it the wrong way.

We won't fight because you're the only one I love, remember?

[whimpers]

I know, but I don't trust her.

I won't let her eat.

Come on, dear.

[Thong Ek] It's lunchtime.

If she gets sicker, she will have to stay here even longer.

[light music]

- [thumping angrily] - [grunts]

[Chaba whimpers]

Chaba.

You haven't eaten anything all day. Eat some.

Thank you.

[playful music]

Chaba, what is this?

It's chili paste from hell.

You can probably guess how I felt when I was making it.

[playful music]

How is it?

[stammers] It's indescribable.

[Piek] Hmm.

Wow. Are you eating?

Please let me join.

[laughs]

[Piek] Wow. What are all these?

Hang on. It looks a bit strange. But it might taste good, right?

- Yes. - Where should I start?

- This one. Wow. - Wow.

Look. It's like a whole chili farm here.

[laughs]

Piek.

[comical music]

- [vomits] - [yells]

[Piek retches]

[exhales sharply]

[Toon retches]

- [coughs] - [exhales sharply]

Thong Ek!

Who made you this?

I told you before that someone might be out there to poison you.

Even if you give it to a dog,

the dog won't even eat it.

What about this?

I'll make you a new one.

I'll fix it up a bit, and it'll be good to go.

All right.

All right.

[sighs]

No.

I made this chili paste myself.

Eat it if you can.

If you can't, you can eat dirt outside.

[whimsical music]

Chaba.

Why?

Was I thinking out loud?

Did you make this chili paste yourself?

Wow. No wonder it tastes amazing.

Toon, you're too late. You've already criticized her cooking.

Chaba.

Will you eat it or not?

Yes, I will. I'll eat it now.

[light music]

Both of you, let's eat!

[Thong Ek] You said it was good, didn't you?

Eat up.

- [Toon] Is he stilling eating? - [Piek] Okay. It's better than nothing.

It's a good thing Pong went home, or else there would be another war.

They just got married, but they're fighting already.

Listen, it's healthy for a couple to fight once in a while.

How is it healthy, Piek?

Well, fighting

will make them even closer than before.

They're closer now. What's next?

After they come close, they lay down.

[both giggle]

What happens after they lay down?

Then it's bang-bang time.

- [Piek] Bang-bang. - Oh, my!

Then we'll help them raise many babies.

[exclaims]

- Fighting is healthy after all. - Yes.

Bang-bang.

Bang-bang.

[light music]

[plates clattering]

I'll wash them for you.

Don't look at me like that. You're making me scared.

You want to eat Pong's food more than mine, don't you?

I just agreed to be polite.

I didn't want to eat her food.

Even if she made it, I wouldn't have eaten it.

No, I wouldn't.

Why did you agree then?

I don't even remember agreeing to eat her food.

Please don't be mad.

I'm mad at Gla. It was definitely his plan.

I will talk it out with him.

Dear, please don't do that.

He doesn't know a thing.

[Thong Ek] Please?

No, I will talk to him.

Chaba, I won't let you.

But I'm going.

I won't let you.

Why?

I'm...

I'm afraid he might still have feelings for you.

Are you jealous?

Of course.

Please don't go.

Chaba.

Promise me that you will stay away from Gla.

[comical music]

Won't you listen to me?

- Take this. - Ouch!

[gasps]

Did you just hit me?

Yes, I did.

You're my wife. Why don't you listen to me?

[grunts]

Fine.

- Take this! - Ow!

Chaba.

- [Thong Ek] Hey. - Take this!

- Hey. - [Chaba] Come back this instant.

You're my wife. Why don't you listen to me?

[Chaba giggles]

You're my husband. You must listen to me. I'm your wife.

[romantic music]

Sleep with me tonight.

In case you get sick,

I'll be sure to take care of you.

I want to sleep in my room.

If you want me to apologize again,

I will.

I'm not mad at you anymore.

I understand.

Sleep here.

I won't do anything to you.

[romantic music]

Do I have to carry you here?

[sighs]

I can do it by myself.

[romantic music]

[woman 1 groans]

[heavy breathing]

[man 2] What's wrong? Can I help you?

[tense music]

[tense music intensifies]

[coughing]

[birds chirping]

[soft chuckle]

[man 3] Master!

Master, are you here?

Please help my mother. Her condition is very severe.

She's had diarrhea for almost five days.

Almost five days?

What did she eat?

I don't know.

[man 3] She came to visit her grandchildren here.

She was already sick then.

That means it started before she got here.

[grunts]

[action music]

Chaba, boil dried mangosteen peel.

Okay.

[Thong Ek] Sit her up.

[action music]

Drink slowly.

- Get clear water, Piek. - I know.

- It's clear. - Man up.

- It's clear. Take it. - Give me.

Give me. You're so weak.

[suspenseful music]

- What? - [squeals]

- Piek, put it back. - Why?

[stutters] Look.

[suspenseful music]

[whimpers]

He is green and swollen.

I bet he swam a long way. Are you tired, sir?

[stammers] Pull me up, Toon.

- [Toon] What? - [Piek] Pull me up.

Why do we pull the body up?

I said, pull me up. Hurry. I can't move my legs.

- Hurry. - [Toon] Let's go, Piek.

[Piek wails] Let's go.

[Toon] Go.

Hurry.

Piek.

Piek.

[Piek] Hurry, Toon.

- [Piek] Toon. - [Toon] Oh, gosh.

- [Toon] No. - [Piek] Hurry, Toon.

[Piek screams]

[both] Help.

[panting]

- Here's the medicine. - [Thong Ek] Thank you.

[tense music]

[gulping]

- [Piek] Thong Ek, we found a dead body. - [Toon screaming]

[Piek] We found a dead body.

Thong Ek, we found a dead body. A dead body.

Why are you so loud? Come help me treat this lady.

Of course, I'm loud. The body was floating in water. It was creepy as hell.

Where did it come from?

If you want to know, I'll send Toon there to ask him.

No!

Will my mother be all right?

We'll try our best.

Chaba, get the medicine inside the house.

[man 3] Mother!

She's dead.

- Mother! - [Toon] What?

[man 3] Mother!

[suspenseful music]

Mother!

[man 3] Mother!

Master!

[man 3] Master help me.

[suspenseful music]

[sniffles]

- [Piek] Thong Ek. - [Toon] Thong Ek.

- [Toon] Thong Ek. - [Piek] Thong Ek.

[both panting]

I asked around. The dead man floating in the river wasn't from here.

People say he was constantly having diarrhea.

They remember his face.

[suspenseful music]

Is it possible that cholera is back?

Did cholera kill my mother?

We are not sure, but we must assume so.

When you said you wanted to bring her body back home,

where exactly is your home?

It's in Bang Phutsa, Luangta.

I see.

That's not too far.

[Luangta] You should let him take her home.

That way, her spirit won't be wandering around.

But if it really is cholera, the bacteria might spread during transportation.

- [Luangta] I see. - It will make this matter worse.

Can I at least keep her body for a week to give her a proper funeral?

I'll get my relatives to come here.

Right now, your mother's body is full of bacteria.

If we keep her body, the bacteria will spread to others.

The best thing you can do for her

is to burn her body right here and right now.

[sobbing] Mother.

I agree with him.

If we wait, more people will be in trouble.

And it will be sinful for your mother.

Do not touch your mother

after you take a shower.

All right.

[man 3 sobbing]

[sobbing continues]

How much sulfur and benzoin do we have left?

Get them ready. They'll prevent us from getting sick.

Okay. I'll prepare it now.

I'll wipe it for you.

No, Chaba. I've got it.

Thong Ek, do you need any other herbs?

I need astringent herbs and medicine for diarrhea and nausea.

See what and how much we have left.

[action music]

[Jeenleng] Cholera is spreading.

Cholera is really spreading.

I just got back on a business trip from Pak Nam Pho.

On my way back,

I saw tons of dead bodies floating in the river.

[Jeenleng] Cholera is horrifying.

I don't know if it will spread to Tha Chalong or not.

[action music]

Quercus infectoria,

pomegranate peel,

Senegalia catechu,

guava leaves,

bark of Terminalia triptera,

mangosteen peel, bark of Mitrephora keithii,

monkey fruit core, midnight horror, Phyllanthus pulcher,

white turmeric, bat flowers,

and astringent herbs.

- [footsteps approaching] - [Piek pants]

Here, Thong Ek.

Table salt.

Rock sugar. This is all we have.

Thong Ek, I think these herbs

will be enough to treat everyone.

More is better than less. We should prepare some for sick travelers too.

I'm starting to freak out though.

There was never a cholera breakout since I was born.

[Piek] How bad will it be?

Piek, don't be a sissy. We've seen many dead people.

- Are you not scared? - I am.

[scoffs]

You must keep yourself healthy. Don't be afraid.

We are the only ones who can help them.

Right.

[action music]

Mister, you should watch what you eat for the time being.

Make sure to cook picked fish well before eating.

I've been eating it all my life. I'm still alive.

Things are different now.

It's better to be safe than sorry.

Please spread the word.

Mister,

please check your food and water carefully.

Make sure to cook your food well before you eat it.

All right.

[tense music]

Where's the egg lady?

This morning, her son said

she was sick or something.

[tense music]

Thong Ek, we found out that two people had diarrhea today.

Why has no one come to us?

They probably think it isn't a big deal.

But if their condition becomes severe, it will be too late for us to help them.

Jeenleng.

Where are you running off to?

I can't stay here anymore.

Both my neighbors have diarrhea.

Cholera is definitely back. I'm sure.

I just went on a business trip to Pak Nam Pho.

On my way back, I saw countless dead bodies.

I can't stay here anymore. I have to leave.

[tense music]

- Thong Ek, where were you? - Something bad has happened.

It's bad, Thong Ek.

What happened?

[distant crying]

[woman 2] My son.

Master, please help my father.

- [woman 2] Doctor. - [man 4] He has been vomiting all night.

- Master, please help my son. - My mother's about to faint.

[man 4] Master, help my father first.

[woman 2] Master, please help my son.

My son's in bad shape.

- My son. - Stay strong, Father.

Piek, Toon, prepare the Tri-gaysornmas remedy

and medicine for diarrhea and nausea.

[Piek and Toon] Okay.

[woman 2 crying]

Open wide.

Chaba.

Give the salted coconut water and rock sugar for the patients to sip.

All right. Please come with me. The coconuts are over there.

Chaba.

Be careful.

Okay. Don't worry.

Let's go.

[action music]

Look at me.

Look at my eyes.

It's here.

[action music]

Take care of the patients.

Okay.

- [man 5] I'll help you. - Thank you.

Chaba, watch them. I'll boil their medicine.

Okay.

[action music]

- [Chaba] Drink slowly. - Excuse me.

What did you light up?

Benzoin, it will disinfect the germs in here.

How do you feel, kid? Do you feel better?

I'm hungry.

Are you? That means you're getting better.

I'll get you porridge water with salt and rock sugar.

Your stomach isn't well. You need something mild.

Everyone listen up. I will make porridge for you.

As for the patients' relatives, please be extra careful.

Do not eat anything carelessly.

[all] Yes, Master.

[woman 3] Help!

Please help.

- Toon. - Oh, no.

[both] Oh, no.

- Come here. - We're here.

Master, please help my husband.

He's had diarrhea since this morning.

Piek, Toon, carry him inside.

Chaba, boil the solvent for the astringent herbs.

- Okay. - Thank you.

[tense music]

[sighs]

There's nothing for us to buy.

Look. The market looks haunted.

Did everyone move away because of cholera?

Did everyone move away or did they already die from it?

Oh, my god. Don't say such thing. Watch your mouth.

[sighs]

[tranquil music]

[snores]

Piek. Toon.

You should sleep inside. I'll watch the patients.

Thank you, Thong Ek. I'll take your shift in the morning.

All right.

Thank you.

- [yawns] - [grunts]

[tranquil music]

[calm music]

You should sleep. I'll watch the patients.

Can I really sleep?

Yes.

I'm sorry I dragged you into this.

Don't say that.

I'll really be mad if you say that again.

I married you,

so that we could go through this together.

Thank you, Chaba.

Thank you too, Thong Ek.

[romantic music]

[romantic music continues]

[baron] Doctors are being sent out to treat people in the infected areas.

Tha Chalong isn't one of them.

Do we have to fend for ourselves?

I don't think we can handle this.

[Thong Ek] I want to beat it.

I've sought information from all my textbooks.

I did everything I could.

If you want to cuss at me, do it. So I can go.

Good luck.

NEXT EPISODE

You were nosy to offer them help. Now you got infected with cholera.

Toon, I need the remedies.

Prepare boiled water, tri-kasorn-mas remedy,

and medicine for diarrhea and nausea.

What's wrong with you?

- [Toon] Are you sick? - [sobbing]
