Excuse me, mister.

Are you Piano's father?

Piano?

She wanted me to tell you that

after she finishes playing,

she would like to see you.

So please wait for her.

I don't think I can.

Here.

Why not?

Piano practiced very hard to enter this contest

because she wanted to see her dad.

She misses her daddy so much.

You miss her too, right?

That's why you're here.

That's enough!

Piano wants to see her dad.

But this gentleman doesn't want to see anyone.

He was declared bankrupt. He's up to his ears in debt.

His apartment doesn't have enough room to swing a cat.

Piano doesn't care about that.

She said she just wants to stay with her father.

Really?

Did the posh girl really say that?

Well, what do you say?

I don't think I should drag her down with me, girl.

If she stays here, she'll have better opportunities.

Why don't you let her decide?

My daughter is the most important thing to me.

She should be where there are opportunities

and not with a useless father who can't give her the support she needs.

Wait!

If you came here but you don't go see her,

she will be very heartbroken.

She won't be if she doesn't know.

Have you seen my daddy?

Why didn't he come to see me play?

Doesn't he love me anymore?

What's wrong? Why are you crying?

You gave a wonderful performance just now.

Really?

Really.

Thoop had never heard that song before, but he got all welled up.

Why were you crying?

Your song reminded me of my parents.

Now they are fighting over who gets custody of me.

Custody?

Through court.

And who do you want to stay with?

I don't know.

With Mom, I have to move in with my grandparents.

While with Dad, I have to move to another school.

I'm so worried.

Hey, what's so worrisome about your parents fighting over you?

Look at me, I even got to join a national piano contest,

but my dad didn't bother to come.

Piano, you're very talented.

I'm not that great. I only won second place.

Being the runner-up is already a great achievement.

Where are you taking it?

I'll put this in your portfolio.

Pedigree dogs

are hard to come by.

Sometimes Mr. Yak is so mean.

Where's Nokkrajib?

She's upstairs.

She just went to bed right after she arrived.

Has she become gloomy again?

I don't think so. She was still in a good mood this morning.

Maybe she's just tired.

There you go.

-Yes. -Try this soup first.

-Okay. -See if you like the taste as is.

Okay.

Wow.

It's so delicious, Mrs. Hom.

The soup is so naturally sweet.

-Have some more. -Okay.

Mrs. Hom, can you please teach me? I want to be able to cook it

so the kids at home will stop making fun of me for not knowing how to cook.

So who normally cooks for you?

It's Singh.

What a man. He cooks so well

that the kids won't stop teasing me for being the opposite.

All right, I'll teach you.

It's easy.

We can even begin now. Let's do it after we finish eating.

-Really? -Yes.

Thank you so much.

-Eat up. -Okay.

You are so good at cooking

that it's a pity that you don't have kids.

I know, right?

If he were still alive today,

he'd probably ask me to cook this and that for him.

Gosh, I'm so sorry.

I didn't mean it.

It's all right.

It's already been ten years.

He died in my womb.

The doctor had warned me of the risks.

But I was stubborn.

Sorry, but can I ask about your husband...

He also wanted to have children.

We thought that if we had a child, our family would be complete.

Then why...

I was not very healthy

and had to undergo emergency surgery.

So I told my husband that

if anything goes wrong,

he should choose the child's life over mine.

But he went back on his word.

I think...

he must have been devastated

and felt so heavy-hearted.

I know.

But I couldn't get over it.

Every time I saw him, I would think that

he had our child killed.

My goodness.

I have ruined the atmosphere.

No. I'll stop crying now.

Let's get on with our dinner.

I want to have children, but I can't.

Screw that then. It doesn't matter.

We can be happy, just the two of us.

We don't need to have a child.

If they're not your own children,

then they mean nothing to you, right?

What do you mean?

You can't have children.

Meanwhile, many children can't have parents either.

Enough is enough.

I should give up on them.

Singh.

I...

I'm sorry for telling Ake that you're our staff.

Sometimes it's difficult to explain internal matters to an outsider.

And thanks for the cake yesterday.

You baked it, right?

It was so delicious.

I'm sorry for not telling you before.

It's just that...

I didn't know that

Ake would propose to me yesterday.

You understand, don't you?

Every woman

wants someone who can protect and take care of her.

Ake is an ideal guy.

And I still have no one.

Is it my fault that

I want to start a family

and have a stable life?

No matter what I say, you never...

Well, maybe I was

just out of my mind.

Hey, Auntie.

Where is Joi's dish?

Old people are so forgetful.

No food for him.

He'll eat at his new home.

What do you mean?

Where's Joi?

Joi doesn't cling on to the shampoo bottle anymore.

He said that he wanted

to live with the bakery owners.

Does everyone know that Joi is leaving?

Why didn't you guys tell me?

Well...

We didn't want to make you sad.

Stop playing, Joi!

Keep eating, come on.

Passadu.

Passadu.

Don't be afraid.

The trial for adoption is so much fun.

I don't want to.

That's because Joi is my puppy.

-Woof. -Woof.

-Woof. -Woof.

-Woof. -Woof.

-Woof. -Woof.

Are you leaving soon?

Do those foster parents treat you well?

You like them, don't you?

Good luck with your new home.

And don't pee in your pants.

Go on then.

Take good care of yourself.

And don't ever come back here again.

Wow. You're such a good girl.

Helping your auntie...

I mean, helping your mommy with tidying up.

After this is done, let's call it a day, my dear.

Gosh! What's with you?

How could you be so careless?

My comb is right there. How could you let this happen?

What if it broke?

I'm sorry. Please don't get mad at me.

Well...

Well, I...

I'm so sorry.

I was just startled.

I didn't mean it. It doesn't matter, really.

It doesn't matter at all, dear.

I'm sorry.

I was just startled really.

Come on, my dear. Please don't cry.

I'm so sorry.

I'll be right back, okay?

Please wait here.

Don't cry, love.

"Daddy and I love you very much. As of tomorrow, you'll stay with us."

What are you doing?

Nothing.

Just talking to my imaginary friend.

What? Aren't you a little too old for that?

That hair clip looks nice.

Mommy gave it to me. She's so kind.

Well, it seems like you're moving to a new home soon too.

I'm going to miss you so bad.

You drew me?

That's lovely.

Do you think I'm pretty?

That's not true.

I'm the worst one in this house.

I'm not talented like Piano.

Not funny like Nokkrajib.

And not brave like Passadu.

I'm a good-for-nothing.

Nobody loves me.

Even the foster family still hasn't signed the contract.

Maybe they don't like me anymore.

What should I do, Singh?

Smile?

Would that be enough?

You mean smile from the heart, right?

Joi.

Stop it!

That shampoo bottle...

Passadu!

A new kid has arrived. Go have a look.

No. I'm going to clean the bathroom.

Come on. Just go have a look!

Joi, you came back?

Let's stay together like before.

I'll take care of you myself, Joi.

What? It's not him.

I don't know where my mom went.

It's not him.

Darn it.

Please take care of him, sir.

Hey.

Speaking of Joi,

he's got a good home and you should be happy.

You should not miss him so much that you become delusional like this.

Hey, kid.

Let's go.

-Now, the backside -Now, the backside

-Now, clap -Now, clap

-One, two, three -One, two, three

Four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten

Why do I need to take him?

Come on, just walk with him.

He thinks you're the strongest of the bunch.

How does he know?

Jeez, it's like an animal instinct.

Baby animals tend to stay close to the strongest of the flock for protection

when they've got no mothers.

I'm just a kid,

not anyone's mom!

I am Joi. Please take care of me.

You aren't Joi. Not even close!

I can be Joi the second.

Joi the second?

All right then.

Let's go to school, chum!

You sound like an old man.

I probably won't see Mommy and Daddy anymore.

Why not, little one?

Last time I wasn't very nice to you. I'm sorry.

Little one.

You didn't say anything wrong.

Actually, what you said

made me reconsider many things.

By the way, Nina told me that

you also live at the Cuckoo's Nest.

Is that right?

Yes, sir.

Maria and I are planning to drop by soon.

Really?

Yes. Because you told me that the children there

are looking for happiness, right?

That's right. This is awesome.

So when will you go there?

How many days, hours, or minutes before you go?

Calm down, dear.

How about this?

Once I know the exact date, I'll tell you right away.

You'll be the first to know, okay?

Yes, okay.

How did you get here?

-I walked. -Again?

-Yes. -You always walk here alone.

Here's your water.

Thank you, dear.

-I'm back. -Hey.

-What's up, dear? -Good afternoon, Daddy.

Good afternoon.

Have a seat.

She'll pour you some water.

All right, Porjai. Give Daddy some water, please.

Well, thank you.

I brought Singh along to help fix the vacuum for Mommy.

Is that so?

You're so great.

You even know a good repairman.

Singh also lives at the Cuckoo's Nest.

-I see. -He can do anything.

He's good at cooking and drawing too.

That's right.

If it wasn't for him,

I'd be in trouble.

I believe so.

I was also worried that Mommy would be in trouble.

Oh, dear. That's so sweet.

The Cuckoo's Nest seems like a nice place.

You've got a nice and dependable friend,.

It sounds like a lot of fun.

Not at all.

Staying here is a lot more fun.

-Really? -Is that so?

Yes.

Then next time you should bring other friends to our home too.

-Yes. -Sounds good?

-What do you say? -Good, huh?

Yes.

Mommy, what's this plate for?

It looks so unique.

What should we put in it, dear?

What would be good?

How about we put in some fruit?

You can arrange a fruit platter for your mom.

-Okay. -Or how about some flowers?

Whatever you like.

Singh, thanks a lot for helping me out.

Daddy and Mommy were so happy.

Don't you think so?

Will they think that I'm a good girl?

I smiled a lot as you told me to.

But I'm still not sure whether they're going to adopt me or not.

Tell me the truth!

Who the heck is Sak?

What if they don't adopt me?

What should I do then, Singh?

Singh?

I told you he's just a colleague.

Colleague?

Why do you have to secretly text him?

Are you having an affair with him?

Quit imagining things.

You're being jealous for no reason.

Are you an idiot or what?

Watch your tongue, bitch!

How can you do this?

Mom!

-Get in there! -Please let me go!

Let me go!

Let me go.

Dad! Let me go!

Let me go!

How is he doing?

No matter what we do, he still doesn't speak a word.

Were you with him the whole time?

Yes.

She's still in shock.

She witnessed violence right before her eyes.

I never imagined he'd do such a thing.

There's got to be a reason behind it.

But for whatever reason,

violence is the absolute worst solution.

I think so too.

This girl has seen enough today.

Please take her home.

All right.

Let's go.

Gosh! At this rate, I'd die of hunger.

When will Singh come back?

-We're hungry! -We're hungry!

Hey, quiet down now!

I'll just cook for you this evening.

-No! -No!

Hey, I can cook!

-Liar. -Liar.

What?

Jamjai, what's wrong?

Hey!

Jamjai, what happened?

Where's Singh?

He was arrested.

What? What did he do?

He punched a man in the face.

And he kept on punching. He wouldn't stop.

It was really scary.

I was afraid that the guy would die.

It's unbelievable.

A kind man suddenly turned into a cruel one.

It's so scary.

Stop it.

Singh is not that kind of person.

There must be some reason behind it.

But Singh just the punched guy out of the blue, right?

Yes.

Did that guy do anything to Singh first?

No, that guy was talking to his girlfriend.

Singh suddenly got upset for some reason.

He kept punching him as if he was possessed.

Maybe that's why he was named "Singh," which means to possess.

Nonsense.

It's not like that.

Hurting people isn't a good thing though, is it?

But we haven't heard Singh's side of the story yet.

How can we? He doesn't even speak a word.

Gosh, I'm going to be famous soon.

If people know that I live in the same house with such a brutal guy,

my reputation will be ruined.

If Daddy finds out that

there's a bad guy in the Cuckoo's Nest,

he will change his mind.

Jeez. How could this happen to me now?

Such a shame.

Singh isn't that kind of person.

Have some faith in him.

He might have a hidden dark side.

What do you mean hidden dark side?

His brutality.

He's capable of speaking, but he doesn't.

That's weird enough.

Enough! I don't want to hear it anymore.

Hey, Singh.

He's home now.

It's not over yet though.

I still have so many things to sort out.

But at least he's back home.

So did you really hurt him?

Why are you interrogating him now? Are you the police?

Last night, nobody cooked for us.

No one has eaten anything yet.

I told you I'd do the cooking.

Nobody wants to take that risk.

Singh, please cook something for us.

Hurry up.

What?

Hurry up. We're going to be late.

-Hey, wait! Why are you rushing? -Go.

Our chef has returned to cook for us. Let's have breakfast first.

No, I'm not hungry. I have to hurry for my piano practice.

I don't want to be late for the morning assembly.

-Let's go! -Hey!

Why are they in such a hurry?

Wait for me.

They're acting weird.

Wear your shoes properly.

Did Singh tell you the reason behind it?

Have you ever heard him say anything?

I hope he had a good enough reason.

There has to be.

I want to trust him.

But maybe some memories came back to haunt him.

He experienced horrible domestic violence,

even witnessing his mom murdering his dad.

I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have said that.

Wow. Your spaghetti is really yummy.

Too bad for anyone who missed this.

I know, right? Serves them right.

Let's finish all of it. What do you say?

Hey, don't stop eating yet. Have some more.

Don't stop yet.

That's enough, Auntie.

Those guys must be starving now.

Spaghetti carbonara,

filled with succulent bacon and tons of cheese. Served right at your door.

We're not having it.

Are you sure?

Singh's cooking today is the best ever.

I've never eaten anything this delicious before in my life.

Don't bother. I won't eat food that is cooked by a bad guy.

Don't say such things if you don't know the truth.

It's you who knows nothing.

Watch your back.

Singh had to stay at the Cuckoo's Nest.

Because his mother is in prison.

She killed his dad.

And then Singh killed other people.

Where did you hear that from?

That's not true.

Come eat while we wait for Mr. Yak.

We'll ask him then.

I said no. And no means no!

Never mind them, Singh.

Don't be bothered by that.

When they know they're wrong, they'll just cry.

"I'm sorry for saying bad things about you."

Right. Those brats don't think before they speak.

They always hurt other people's feelings.

You too, Passadu.

No, I don't.

"I have killed someone."

I HAVE KILLED SOMEONE

Hey, you're not going anywhere.

You have to stay with me.

When that man hit your husband,

you two were fighting. Is that right?

No. We were just talking.

Are you sure?

NEXT EPISODE

Singh!

Hey, Passadu.
