All language subtitles for Stepmother (19)

There's a development
in Ms. Nichamon's case.

They must be quite sure
that there was an accomplice.

Don't tell me it's Dao.

I've waited my entire life

for you to open up

and accept me.

This man tricked my mother into
poisoning Nichamon's food to kill her.

You want me
to water your plants for you, right?

Looks like Ms. Mon
is trying to tell you something.

Is it about hydrangeas?

Nichamon is now the key

to exposing his crimes.

He must not want her to recover.

Hello.

We were together just a little while ago.
Do you miss me?

I missed you
the moment you said good night.

Parit.

Do you remember the hydrangea
planting guide Ms. Mon gave me?

Yeah, I do. Why?

Ms. Mon marked three asterisks under

general properties of hydrangeas.

So, I tried to look into it
in more detail.

Did you find anything?

The details are fairly generic,

but there's one thing I never knew about.

What is it?

The book says that

if hydrangeas

are planted in soil
with different acidity levels

the flowers will show different colors.

In alkaline soil,
the flowers will be pink.

But in acidic soil, they'll turn blue.

- That's new.
- Yeah.

HYDRANGEA PLANTING GUIDE

Other parts are quite generic.

I think we need to go to the place
to get a clear idea of what it is.

Right.

Why is this one a different color?

They're planted in the same soil,

and how would the acidity
be different for just this one?

He parked in front of the house.

He just went in.

They came back out together now.

They took something from the house.
She's carrying it in a bag.

Follow them, and keep me posted.

Right.

- Is he following us?
- Hmm.

And when did Dao leave the house?

A little bit before us.

He probably doesn’t know yet
that thing is with Dao. Let him follow us.

Ms. Ploy should be
at the police station now too.

He won't get away this time.

Miss Dao.

Are you free tomorrow morning?

Could you go to Nichamon's house with me?

What's going on there?

I won't go in there with you.

You can wait in the car.

How will you get in there?

I have the key.
Ms. Mon's mother gave it to me.

I'll be right back.

I'm heading out, Miang.

It was buried in the backyard.

Why did she do that?

There are blood stains as well.

This is a man's shirt.

I hid it in the drawer
under the bed. Burn it.

Puwin has some shirts similar to this one.

Puwin's man is following Parit here.

I'll go wait for Parit,
and lure him the other way.

Go to the police station.
Ms. Ploy is heading there too.

Miang, send him the photo.

Right.

Mon.

You betrayed me!

- Yes?
- Are you still on their tail?

I'm right behind them.

Good.

Don't let those two get away,
and get my shirt back to me.

I don't care

whether they're dead or alive,
I must have my shirt back.

Is 500,000 baht enough?

Wait.

Did you see Miss Dao with them?

I didn't.

What is it, Bomb?

I have a job for you guys.

Alright, Boss.

Hey, let's go.

Let's go, Miang!

Go.

Faster!

Don’t let them escape!

Miang, here.

Miang.

Stay right here. I’ll lure them away.

- But…
- No, Miang!

You have to stay here.

Parit!

Stop right there!

Where's the thing? Where is it?!

Hey!

You tricked me?! You tricked me?!

Go!

Parit.

Cuff them.

Take their weapons.

Let go of me!

Get up.

POLICE STATION FOR THE PUBLIC

Dao isn't here yet, Miang.

She's not picking up my calls either.

Is everything okay?

Keep calling her, Miang.

Dao.

Miss Dao.

I have the evidence.

How did it end up with you?

You didn't think
this would happen, did you?

Where are you?

If you want your shirt back,

come get it where we had our first date.

Dao.

Don't tell me
Miss Dao will betray us again.

That's unlikely.

Miss Dao just texted me.

What does it say?

"If I fail, the evidence is in the car."

What is she going to do?

She sent me her location.

- Ms. Ploy.
- What are you doing here?

I came to see Miss Dao,

but she's not here.

Are you trying to silence my daughter?

The evidence is clearly pointing to you.

You can't escape.

What are you talking about?

After all this time,
do you really think I don't know?

I might have been mistaken

and fallen for you for a while,

but I'm not blind.

You’re not better than everyone else,
no matter what you think.

Before accusing me of anything,

make sure you have the evidence first.

Evidence?

Oh, I have it.

I'm not afraid of you.

Then watch yourself…

you hag.

And watch your daughter as well.

If you do anything to my daughter,

whether it's Dao or Miang,

I won’t let you get away with this.

What is it, Miang?

Ms. Ploy, I know where Miss Dao is now.

Where is she?

That's Miss Dao's car.

Let's go.

She said the evidence was in the car.

And where is she?

We should split up and look for her.
She must be around here.

- I'll go this way.
- Then I'll go that way.

Miang.

Be careful.

Puwin.

What did you do to Miss Dao?

Miang.

It's all because of you.

You kept nosing around.

Turn yourself in.
You can't get away this time.

Turn myself in?

I'm not stupid.

Give me back my shirt.

I won't, even if it costs me my life.

You said it yourself.

You'll get what you wish for.

Miang!

Dao.

You won't survive this shot.

Don't you see they're using you?

Like how you used my mother and Nichamon?

Do you think I'm that stupid?!

And do you think switching sides now

makes you a good girl?

We're as vile as each other.

But you can't keep getting away
with what you've done.

Give my shirt back.

You can't get away now.
The police are coming.

Do you really think
that only one piece of evidence

can do anything to me?

I know you're cunning and slippery.

You won't be in jail for long.

Someone like you doesn't deserve to live!

Don't do it, Dao!

Dao!

Trust me.

Don’t throw your life away
for such a disgusting person.

Don't do it, Miss Dao.

The police are coming. You're done.
Put the gun down.

Put the gun down?

Then she'd shoot me dead!

But if I have to die,

there's no way I will die alone.

Dao.

It's too late.

This is the only way I can stop him!

Don't, Dao!

Dao! Stop!

Aunt Ploy! Aunt Ploy!

Ms. Ploy.

Don't do it!

Don't do it, Pu!

Don't you dare hurt Dao.

Then please go love each other in hell.

Put down the weapon and surrender!

In the end, someone must die for me.

What are you going to do?

You must do it.

We're approaching the finish line.

Everything Panalee owns

is about to be ours.

You have to do it yourself.

Ms. Ploy.

Aunt Ploy.

Mon! Mon! No!

Mon! Don't leave me!

Mon! Wake up!

Mon! Mon!

I was listening through the door.

I heard everything.

Mr. Puwin was the one
who murdered Mr. Waythus.

I was afraid, so I didn't tell anyone.

Please don't arrest me, officer.

Please don't put me in jail.
I wasn't involved.

Here she comes!

Miss Darinkarn is here.

Please make way for us.

Excuse me.

Please move.

- Please move aside.
- What was the court's ruling?

- Can I have a question, please?
- Excuse me.

Miss Darinkarn Kitchaphinan
has been charged

as an accomplice in Ms. Panalee's murder.

With mitigating circumstances,
the court has spoken.

- It sentenced her to 20 years in prison.
- What did the judge say?

It was reported that Miss Darinkarn

will not be appealing the ruling.

Take as many photos as possible.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Aunt Ploy. I'm sorry.

How are you doing?

Have you adjusted to being here?

I'm trying to.

But you're too skinny now.

You need to eat more, alright?

Did you see your mother?

She's trying to avoid me.

She must not want to
be involved in my case.

Don't think about it.

Don't think about what would upset you.

You should focus
on your mental well-being.

This is the most important thing.

I have the chance to think
about many things in here, Aunt Ploy.

I wonder why I was so stupid.

What was blinding me?

Why wasn't I able to realize

or see the truth?

Seeing you realize this

makes me feel so relieved.

It wasn't too late.

You don’t have any prior criminal record.

If you behave while you're in here,

it won't take long.

It'll be a while. Just be patient, Dao.

Just a short while,
and you'll be able to go home.

If Parit and Miang want to visit me,

tell them they can come anytime.

I'm…

I'm lonely.

Alright. I'll tell them.

I'll come see you a lot too.

Even more often.

It's funny.

The one I hated

and wanted to destroy the most

turns out to be the one who loves

and cares about me,

and forgives everything I did

no matter how bad it was.

Don't cry.

If you keep crying like this,

I won't come visit again.

I'll have to stop crying as well.

There is one thing Dad asked of me

and even after his death,

I still couldn't bring myself to do it.

What is it?

Do you want me to help you with it?

Dad asked me to call you…

"Mom."

When I get out of here,

please let me fulfill Dad's wish.

Of course.

I'll wait for you.

I'll wait for you.

Ah.

Okay.

Please forgive me, Ms. Ploy,

that we have to
propose to your daughter online.

It's Parit who couldn't wait.

He was afraid Miang would change her mind.

I don't mind it at all.

We talked a little bit when you were here

and I have no objections at all.
It's just a matter of time.

And I'm so happy for these two.

I'm very happy as well.

I've been rooting for them
for a long time.

I didn't think I would live long enough
to witness their marriage.

You'll witness it, Chawee.

You'll probably see
our great-grandchildren too.

My son is such a show-off.

If your father were still around,

he would come to congratulate you.

I'm lucky enough

to have you and Chawee.

If not, I would feel like
I was alone in this world.

From now on, you'll have me

and Mom as your family.

I want…

four or five grandchildren.

So we'll be a big family,
and never be lonely.

I can't do that, Teacher.

You can!

Parit.

Take care of her for me.

And please love Miang

as much as we love her.

You don't have to worry.

I'll love her
more than everyone else combined.

Please be the witness, Teacher.

Please take care of Parit, Miang.

If he's stubborn, you can spank him.
I grant you permission.

Huh?

I kept my promise, Maratee.

Please rest assured.

Love each other for a long time to come.

Hey, someone is sitting here
with tears in her eyes.

I wish

the two of you
all the happiness in your marriage.

Live together

with kindness
and help each other in times of need.

Yes, Chawee.

- Thank you.
- Right.

Miang.

I love you, Miang.

This is one of
the happiest days of my life, Maratee.

It feels like

I can get one of my daughters
to the next stage of her life.

Congratulations.

Too bad I can't go to the wedding.

When you're out of here,
we can celebrate together again.

Let's do that.

I wish you two a long-lasting love

and all the happiness.

Thank you.

My mom sends you regards.

She said she'll visit you
when she comes to my wedding.

Thank you.

Have kids soon, so I can have someone
to play with when I'm out of here.

Oh.

Boys or girls, you can tell me
which you want.

Wow, are you able to manage that?

Miss Dao.

I have something for you.

I saw that it was left in your room,

so I kept it for you.

I didn't want you

to leave our bonds behind.

All this time,

no matter how good or bad things were,

I don't have any other siblings.

I have only you.

Whether we love or hate each other,

I still want us to stay together
as we always have.

Miang. If you're like this,

I won't allow you to visit again.

Be empathetic

and be kind to each other.
Take good care of her.

You're all grown up now.
Talk nicely to each other.

Love each other forever.
Always forgive each other.

Yes, Mom.

I wish you all the happiness, Parit.

Take good care of Miang.

Today is my happiest day.

I wish you nothing but happiness.

The Chief Advisor is here to see you.

Aunt Ploy.

- Hello.
- Hello.

How are you doing? Are you tired?

It's quite challenging.

That means he's tired.

But I'm so glad
to have you working for the company.

Yes, Aunt Ploy.

And what about you?

Where did you two go?

We went for the ultrasound
to check the baby's gender.

Huh?

Did you find out
if the baby is a boy or a girl?

I won't tell you.

What?

I don't know.

What? Can't you tell me?

- You won't tell me?
- I won't tell you.

You won't?

What?

- Parit.
- Are you going to tell me?

- That's enough.
- I'll just kiss you in front of Aunt Ploy.

- Enough already.
- Are you going to tell me now?

YEARS LATER

PROHIBITED AREA

Dao.

Are you going to miss Grandma?

Mom must be so excited.
She won't be lonely for years to come.

Or she might want her quiet life back.

If I was a bit younger,
I would go with you.

- Wow.
- Oh, you wish.

I would be so worried about the house.

Right, boy?

I'll be away for a month.
Will you miss me?

I'll miss you so bad.

Miss Dao. Graduate quickly,

so we can work together.

Only if I don't meet someone
in the States first.

I didn't know
you had a thing for white boys too.

Let's go, Dao. I'll wait in the car.

Right, Mom.

Have a safe journey, Ms. Ploy.

Thanks.

- Bye-bye.
- Bye-bye, Grandma.

- Bye-bye.
- Bye-bye.

Bye-bye.

Come on.

I've never taken pride
in being a stepmother,

a role I was reluctant
to take on for over ten years.

I took care of Dao and Miang
because I needed to.

I saw it as nothing more than a duty.

Are you going to wear it now?

But now, that has completely changed.

- Yeah, good boy.
- Yeah.

Even though I've never been pregnant,
given birth, breastfed,

or experienced true motherhood,

I now understand
what it feels like to be a mother.

How I spend every breath
worrying about my children.

How I care about them
without expecting anything in return.

So this is what it feels like.

Now I'm incredibly happy and fulfilled.

It's the first time in my life

that I'm proud of my role as stepmother.

This must be what they call true love.

THE END
