What are you doing?

Fixing my makeup.

You're crying?

It's your mom's wedding, not yours!

I'm happy.

Look, your makeup is running.

Hurry! It's about to start. -Okay.

Just wash it off.

Hurry.

Shawn!

You're late.

Am I?

It's starting soon.

From some of the juniors and I. -Thanks.

Hello, senior.

Hi.

Xiao-Ru!

Auntie and uncle Wu.

Your tie.

Auntie Wu, Uncle Wu, hello.

This is my sister.

I'm Yang-Yang.

So pretty.

She looks just like a foreigner.

I'm half-French.

No wonder.

Just like a little French doll.

I'll show you to your seats.

Where should I sit?

I'll show you.

Shawn.

Sit here, ok?

So...

They are all senior alum.

Enjoy yourselves.

You go ahead. -Have a good time.

Hi, Yang-Yang.

Auntie Chou, thanks for coming.

Congrats, you're getting prettier -Thanks.

Busy? -Kind of...

Off you go then. -Help me attend to the guests.

Where are the rings?

Rings...

They're in the other bag.

We need them now...

Pardon. -It's ok.

Right here.

This is the bride's.

Thanks. -Take your seats.

Ready at the entrance?

We're ready to start.

We're ready to start.

Ladies and gentlemen.

Big applause for the bride and groom.

Yang-Yang!

Yang-Yang?

Yang-Yang!

Come on, wake up!

What's wrong?

I was dreaming.

And I couldn't wake up.

You're covered with sweat.

Time to get up.

I'm gonna help your mom with breakfast.

Xiao-Ru.

My mom's making breakfast?

I must be dreaming.

No more chatting.

Hurry or we'll be late.

No more talking.

Sis.

Yang-Yang. Take the front seat.

Busted.

Totally busted.

Zhang Xinyang. -Yes.

From now on, I'll treat you like my daughter.

So you have to follow the same rules as Xiao-Ru.

Yes.

First...

Never call me Dad at school.

Call me Coach just like before.

Okay.

Second, be punctual.

Double punishment if you're late.

One more thing...

Shawn!

Yeah.

Clear the tracks.

Time trial on tracks 3 and 4.

Okay.

On your marks...

Get set...

Yang-Yang!

Stand up. Don't squat.

Chen Jingru, 54.1 seconds.

Zhang Xinyang, 54.8

Was I any different from before?

I can't tell.

How are you feeling?

I feel I'm in good shape!

How come I'm getting slower?

The meet is a month way,

still have time to improve.

Improve what?

Take it easy.

We'll find the problem.

You.

Your kick-off is sloppy.

Take a break.

I want to see your kick-off again.

Open your eyes.

Red?

Not that serious

It itches bad.

Sit, I have saline.

What for? -To rinse your eyes.

Lift your head.

How about now? Feeling better?

Yeah.

Yang-Yang.

Xiao-Ru.

What's up?

Shampoo got into her eyes.

He rinsed my eyes with saline.

Everything ok now? - Much better.

Dad's asking for you.

I'll go find him in a bit.

Still stings a little.

Should I wait for you?

No, go ahead.

Bye. -Bye.

See you later.

Thanks Shawn.

It's open.

Yang-Yang.

Can I use the piano?

Sure.

On your marks...

Get set...

Aren't you playing?

I don't want to disturb you.

Being polite with me?

You're not a rocker anymore.

No?

I'll always be a rocker.

How are you lately?

Good.

How's practice?

Today I came this close to winning...

Really?

Really?

But keep it quiet, can't brag in this house.

I didn't mean it like that.

No worries.

Thanks for understanding.

Not at all.

Xiao-Ru!

Have you seen that guy before?

Who is he?

He's taping us, kinda creepy.

Shawn.

Come here a second. -Hang on.

What's up?

Go check out that guy.

He's videotaping us.

Go check him out.

Sir. May I help you?

Oh, hello senior.

It's been a long time.

You're in pretty good shape.

I'm doing alright.

Who's that girl wearing baby blue?

Our junior?

Yeah.

She's Eurasian, right?

Yeah.

Introduce me to her, ok?

Uh?

What? She's your girlfriend?

No.

Do me a favor.

Please.

Yang-Yang!

Come over here.

Come with me.

He's our senior by eight years.

Ming-Ren.

Hello senior.

Don't be so formal. Just call me Ming-Ren.

My business card.

How do you do? - How do you do?

He's a talent manager.

You're pretty.

Hard not to notice you. -Thanks.

You know how special you are?

I've never thought that.

I'll cut to the chase. You're Eurasian, right?

Yeah.

You're half... -I'm half-French.

So you speak French? -No.

Really? -No.

Not even a little?

Ming-Ren!

What're you doing here?

Just talking.

Get on with your drills.

Yang-Yang. Work on your kick-off.

Yes. Thank you, coach.

Thanks, senior.

Bye.

Yang-Yang, bye-bye.

Hello, Coach. Long time no see.

I don't care how you live your life.

But don't be a bad influence on them.

How's your dad?

He's fine, retired last year.

In good health, can still drink.

Tell him I said hi.

I'll have a drink with him someday.

Thanks, Coach.

I'll tell him.

Don't keep him worrying about you.

Find a decent job.

Understand?

Higher, higher.

Focus.

Higher. Keep up.

Shawn! Get some ice!

What happened?

Hurry!

You guys keep practicing. Don't crowd around.

What's the matter? Sprained?

Probably.

Let me see.

Here?

Shawn.

You have your scooter? -Yeah.

You call it a day. Take her to the hospital...

and get an x-ray. - It's not that serious.

That's an order!

No back-talk!

Yes.

Shawn.

If it's serious, call me.

Hurry, hurry.

I'll pick you up, 1 2 3.

Watch it.

Careful.

The bone seems fine.

No need to worry. It's a recurring sprain.

After you go back, ice it down and then use a hot pack.

Change regularly. You'll be fine in no time.

Okay.

I'll give you some medication. -Okay.

Any allergies?

No.

Oh I have this...

Doctor...

I can't take these.

Yes, I know.

Drug tests, right? -Yes.

No problem, I got it.

Thank you.

Let me help you.

Thanks.

Watch it.

Feeling okay?

It's alright. I can hold the handrail.

Okay.

Careful.

Thanks.

Yang-Yang.

It's you.

What?

The photographer is...

How do you pronounce this?

Can we go now?

What's the matter?

Are you okay?

Are you alright?

Not feeling well?

Thanks.

This is wrong.

We can't do this.

I love you.

Nonsense!

It's not nonsense.

I mean it.

I can break up with Xiao-Ru.

You can't!

You just can't! What're you thinking?

Why not? I'm serious.

Erase that idea from your head!

Why?

Don't even think about it!

You hear me?

Understand?

Say you do!

Okay, I do.

You're unbelievable...

You didn't tell me you were coming.

Where's Yang-Yang?

I dropped her off.

Xiao-Ru.

Let me ask you, Yang-Yang's real dad...

Is he in Taiwan or France?

How should I know?

Yang-Yang doesn't even know.

Really?

So it's possible he's in Taiwan?

Xiao-Ru.

Don't be like this.

It's just porn!

It's not about the porn.

What're you talking about?

You think I'm an idiot?

No.

What's up with you?

She looks just like Yang-Yang.

No way.

They are just both Eurasians, that's all.

You're telling me you never think of her when you jerk off?

Of course not.

Come on. - Don't touch me!

Or I'll break up with you.

Do you want to break up?

Yang-Yang.

Did the doctor say anything?

Nothing much.

Recurring sprain, be fine in 2 weeks.

Here.

Have some beef tendon. Tendon for your tendons!

Thanks, Dad.

Tasty.

Xiao-Ru, what's wrong? You're not eating.

Is it too light?

What're you laughing at?

Hypocrites.

What did you say?

I said you're a bunch of hypocrites.

Hey!

Sis.

Stop calling me that.

We don't look like sisters at all.

Xiao-Ru.

Xiao-Ru!

Xiao-Ru!

Don't worry.

Pre-meet stress, I have it too.

Miss.

Excuse me.

Who runs the photo exhibition here?

Let me check for you.

Heaven Photography Association.

Heaven Photography Association.

Do you have their contact number?

Hello senior.

How're you doing?

Fine.

Oh yeah.

The photo we saw in the hospital...

I know who took it.

What do you think you're doing?

I thought you might want to know.

What makes you think that?

Who do you think you are?

What are you doing later?

Nothing, go home.

Will you pass the riverside?

Yeah.

Give me a lift.

Yang-Yang.

What?

It's getting late.

Go ahead and leave.

But you're still injured.

Go get me more tokens.

When are you going to stop?

Not until I hit a home run.

That's not gonna happen.

Fine, I'll go get the tokens.

What if I hit it?

Hit what?

Hit a home run.

If I do, you have to do something for me.

What is it?

Just promise me.

Okay.

If you hit a home run.

You can't change your mind.

Hey.

What was it...

you wanted me to do?

I didn't hit a home run.

That's alright.

I still promise to do it.

You don't know what the promise is.

I don't care.

You sure?

Yes.

Okay...

For the next three hours,

I'm not Yang-Yang.

You're not Shawn.

Whatever happens,

it's like it never happened.

Can you do that?

Okay.

I promise.

I love you.

I love you so much.

You're back.

Where have you been? Dad's worried.

I went for a massage.

Yang-Yang.

I'm sorry.

What I said yesterday was terrible.

Oh that?

I already forgot about it.

No hard feelings.

Xiao-Ru. Come on and eat.

Dinner's getting cold.

I'm on the phone.

Don't eavesdrop! Go away!

What's the matter?

She's on the phone.

That's ok. I'll save some for her.

Yang-Yang.

Did Xiao-Ru have a fight with Shawn?

I have no idea.

Hello?

Yang-Yang?

I just got off the phone with Xiao-Ru...

Hello?

Who was it?

A prank call.

Yang-Yang.

We haven't gone out for a while, right?

Yeah, we need some serious shopping.

Let's go do that someday.

Just the two of us, ok?

After the track meet?

Okay.

Are you alright?

It's nothing.

Just stressed out.

Wanna talk about it?

Mom saved you some dinner.

Try to eat something.

Okay.

Get some rest.

Yang-Yang.

Yang-Yang!

Senior.

Any plans before the meet?

I'm going to the movies with Xiao-Ru.

Oh?

Well...

You have time after that?

What's up?

Well...

I wanna do like the other day.

What day?

The day at the batting cage.

After the batting cage, didn't we go our separate ways?

Why are you doing this?

Can you stop acting?

Good night, senior.

You're beautiful.

You're so beautiful.

Who am I?

Xiao-Ru.

Xiao-Ru.

That looks good.

Did you sleep well last night?

Okay...

What do you want to watch?

Whatever.

So I decide?

Yang-Yang. Let me borrow your cell phone.

Yang-Yang.

You left yours at home?

Yeah.

Xiao-Ru.

Xiao-Ru.

This is Xiao-Ru.

That's weird...

How come Xiao-Ru's not here yet?

Yang-Yang.

Do you know where Xiao-Ru is?

That's odd, she left earlier than me.

There she is.

Where have you been?

I wasn't feeling well.

Go take your seat.

Mr. Lee, we're all here, let's go.

Everybody's here?

Let's go.

Xiao-Ru, is your stomach still upset?

No...

Yang-Yang, how's your ankle?

I'm fine.

Coach, they need your help.

Over there.

You go on ahead, I'll be there shortly.

Well, you two go sign in.

Both of you are my daughters.

But it's up to you now.

Go on, make me proud.

Xiao-Ru...

This is for you.

I'm gonna go sign in.

Need some water?

Athletes, please rise.

On your marks...

Get set...

Zhang Xinyang.

Yang-Yang.

Xiao-Ru, have you seen Yang-Yang?

Yang-Yang.

Come here now!

Follow me to the office.

Coach.

No need to be nervous.

Whatever they ask, just answer them honestly.

Hurry up.

The athlete's here.

Excuse me. We need some privacy here.

So you're Zhang Xinyang?

Yes.

Here are the results of your drug test.

Positive for steroids.

Here is the hospital certification.

Are you sure?

Let me explain.

You can take a re-test within 24 hours.

If you're not satisfied,

you can file an appeal within 20 days.

Have you taken any medication recently?

I sprained my ankle last month.

The doctor gave me some medication.

But I showed him the list of prohibited meds.

Yang-Yang, think carefully.

Did you take any cold medicine?

What about Chinese medicine?

That might influence the result.

Do you want to re-test?

Of course!

We have to be certain about this.

Perhaps... -No need.

What?

I took them.

I took prohibited drugs.

Zhang Xinyang!

Yang-Yang!

Have you looked around for her?

Are you sure you searched everywhere?

Wait, it seems that...

I think she walked in.

Yang-Yang.

Wait, she just came home.

That's alright, take it easy.

I'll ask her.

You stay there.

Okay, bye.

What do you think you're doing?

What happened?

Won't you tell me?

Talk to me.

You must be exhausted, right?

I won't ask you what really happened.

I'll keep Dad from asking too.

But you have to promise...

You won't leave me, ok?

Yang-Yang?

Stop packing.

And take a shower, ok?

Go wash up.

Mom.

Can I sleep in your bed tonight?

No problem.

Let's take a break.

Zheng-Zhang.

Do you mind if I change the music?

Sure, go for it. -Thanks.

You're too uptight. - I'm nervous.

What for?

I...

Who are you?

Yang-Yang.

And me?

Ming-Ren.

No, no, no.

Today you're the most beautiful woman.

Not even Yang-Yang is this hot.

Go for it.

Hey, Zheng-Zhang... Mind if I move this?

She's always leaning on it.

Bad habit.

Sorry.

Bring it on.

Hot mama.

There you are.

Been waiting long?

Just got here.

How's work?

It's alright... All bit parts.

Going to shoot a TV series tomorrow.

I was a last minute replacement.

They say the director is pretty good.

Let me get a look at you.

You've lost weight?

No.

I wired some money last week.

Did you get it?

Yeah, but I'm doing fine without it.

Really? -Yeah, I can get by.

You'll tell me if you need money, ok?

Okay, I promise. Don't worry about me.

By the way, dad is busy at school.

He couldn't make it.

And he hopes you'll understand.

Don't make excuses for him.

I know he doesn't want to see me.

I know I deserve it!

How can you say that?

He misses you.

How can you think that? -Okay.

I know.

I'll be right back.

Nervous?

I'm worried about my pronunciation.

You're not French after all.

You're a Taiwanese hotty.

So none of that matters, you'll be fine.

Go for it.

Mindy, look after her for me.

Ok. -Thanks.

Yang-Yang

Here's the script changes.

They changed the lines!

Positions everybody.

Damnit!

I'll take care of it.

Yang-Yang, ready? -Ready.

Let's go.

Director, the actors are all set.

Relax.

Let's try one.

5,4,3,2.

Why don't you answer my call?

Who is she?

No one...

Just a friend from France.

Cut, cut, cut!

You, you, what's your name?

Yang-Yang.

What's your problem? Say your lines.

Don't just space out! Speak!

Come here.

Didn't I give you the new script?

Sorry, but I can't read French.

What do you mean? Aren't you French?

Director.

Director, sorry.

Come here a second. Now what?

We told the producer before...

Though Yang-Yang is half-French, she can't speak French.

And where am I supposed to find a French girl?

Give me some time.

I can have someone teach her the lines.

You're putting me on the spot. - I'm really sorry.

How do you expect me to make the day?

Sorry. - Okay, forget it.

Never mind. Here's what we'll do.

Come here.

Next take, we'll pick up the pace.

Yang-Yang, open the door.

You see her...

Stare at each other for about...

3 seconds.

You take a step closer...

Piece it together...

and then...

Smack!

Okay? -Got it.

Then you're pissed off and leave.

You come out chasing her.

Camera ok?

Remember to dodge.

Got it?

Come on, let's shoot one.

Hurry!

Camera ok?

Ok!

Quiet on the set!

5,4,3,2!

Xiao-Xun!

Cut.

Ok, we got it.

Sorry.

I'm sorry.

No more French parts.

Alright.

You owe me.

Does it hurt?

Ming-Ren.

Excuse me...

Yang-Yang is done for the day.

Thank you, director and everyone.

Let's go home.

You took the blame. Sorry.

Never mind. -I'm sorry, I'm sorry...

That's alright. Let's go home. -I'm so sorry!

Let's go home.

I'm ok.

I'm fine.

Why don't you break up with me?

Because I'm your trophy.

Right?

Hello.

Signing in? -Yes.

Zhang Xinyang?

Sign here.

Yang-Yang.

Coach Ke. -You're trying out?

Coach Chen retired?

No, he's still teaching.

Just...

I'm gonna warm up.

On your marks...

Get set...

Chang Yu-Xuan, 58.1

Zhan Li-Jun, 57.8

Yang-Yang, 60.3

Not feeling well today?

Forgot my steroids!

What attitude!

Hello? Ming-Ren.

I'll be late for the dance lesson.

I'm on the train.

Talk to you later.

Ok.

Hold still.

Almost over.

You skipped French class again?

I went to Eastern Athletics for a tryout.

Please.

French lessons are expensive.

I can teach you everything.

Everything but French.

So please no more skipping class, ok?

Okay.

Done.

So how was the tryout? - Terrible.

You really want to run again?

I told you. You're a born star.

Think twice.

If you go back, you have to start all over again.

Slow learner...

Step forward.

Again.

That reminds me...

I'll get you a dance partner next time.

I can't see your footwork.

I've got a cold.

Cold. (Taiwanese)

Excuse me.

Hello? Ming-Ren.

Class is over.

I went to class, just like I promised.

Alright, you got it.

Zhang Xinyang.

Take a seat.

Thank you.

How do you do?

This is our director Laurent from France.

I'm producer Kuo.

I want to clarify first...

While Yang-Yang is half-French, she can't speak French.

That's ok.

The director says that this character

doesn't need to speak French.

In that case... there's no problem.

I think it's great.

This character is just like you.

Don't you think so?

Not really.

I wouldn't go looking for my father.

Grab a bite?

Hello?

Yes...

I have to check with Yang-Yang first.

I'll call her and then call you back.

Ok.

Thanks.

It's producer Kuo.

He said the French director likes you.

But he's leaving tomorrow, so he wants to meet you tonight.

I think it's good. We're doing great today.

I'm not sure.

What do you mean?

I think the story sucks.

You mean...

A Eurasian looking for her father?

So boring.

You're afraid?

Of what?

You're running away.

You're not me, how can you say that?

And why can't I run away?

It's just a start if you wanna be an actress.

Ok.

Ok what?

Whatever you decide,

I trust you.

Really.

Ok, I'll call him later.

Careful.

Hello. -Table for two?

No, I'm here to meet a Mr. Kuo.

Mr. Kuo, second floor please.

Thanks.

Second floor please.

Excuse me, I'm here to meet Mr. Kuo.

Yang-Yang!

Don't you look gorgeous?

That's why you're my agent.

Come in.

Mr. Kuo!

Ming-Ren, you're here. -Hello, Mr. Kuo.

Finally! What took you so long?

This place is hard to find.

We got lost.

Where's the director...

He left already.

Early flight tomorrow, so he went back to rest.

I see... So...

Don't worry, basically...

all the Taiwanese casting...

is up to me.

Have a drink?

Come on! Have some!

Thanks.

Will you drink with me? -A little.

Just a bit, thank you.

You're late, so bottoms up! -Ok, bottoms up.

Thanks.

Yang-Yang. -Yes?

The story you told this afternoon,

about seeing the photo in the hospital.

The director thinks it's good for the film.

If you can elaborate,

we want to put it in the script.

Of course...

That's only if you agree to play the character.

Of course we're interested. As long as it fits her schedule.

Actually I have several projects in the works.

And...

I think Yang-Yang is really special.

So...

Go for it!

Ok.

Have some more.

Okay... - Come on!

Thanks, Mr. Kuo.

Don't mention it.

Waiting for you is my pleasure...

Cheers to you.

Bottoms up!

Want more food? -No, we've eaten.

Careful.

I'm fine.

Be careful.

Yang-Yang, where do you live?

Are you drunk, Mr. Kuo?

Not one bit. Can I give you a ride?

No need, it's not far!

I need some cigarettes. Want anything?

No!

Ming-Ren!

He's unbelievable...

He insists on sending me home.

Say no if you don't feel like it.

I've got some work to do.

You're not a kid anymore...

You can handle yourself, right?

But he's so gross.

You can take care of yourself.

Got any money?

Only 200 NTD.

Grab a taxi if you don't want to go with him.

Call you tomorrow.

I have to go.

You're so beautiful.

Please stop over there.

You're getting out?

My house is nearby.

You take care.

Just stop right here.

Can you pick up that girl over there?

Here...

Keep the change. -Thanks.

Just pretend you're passing by.

Thank you.

How are you doing?

Hungover?

Here.

I didn't use it.

The producer called to ask about your fee.

Do you have any ideas?

Or...

Should I make an offer?

You decide.

I told you... I trust you.

Yeah.

Ok.

In that case...

I'll have the script translated into Chinese.

Then we'll take it from there.

I'm warmed up.

Your dance partner is late.

I know, but I wanna dance with you first.

Alright.

Let's go over what we did last time.

Your dance partner is on his way.

I have to go now.

Am I too early?

Don't sweat it.

It's been a long time. -How are you?

Getting by.

Shawn!

Come out here.

Let me introduce you two.

Senior, junior.

Junior to me by a year.

Hello sir.

Give him a JD and water.

Not tonight. Straight, no chaser.

Why the change? -It's nothing.

Help him with whatever he wants.

I'm off to see my wife.

How's she doing? -Great.

When is the baby due?

Anytime now.

Take your time.

Catch you later.

It's been a long time.

Yeah it has.

Just graduated?

Yep.

When do you go in the military?

Next week.

Give me a...

Highland Park, 12 years.

Straight

Thanks.

Thanks.

Sir...

How's Yang-Yang doing?

Not bad.

I think so...

Her career is coming along.

Really.

Can you give me her number?

You haven't changed yours, right?

It's the same?

The same.

Well then...

I'll tell her you want to contact her.

I'll have her call you.

But I go in the military next week.

I'm worried it'll be too late.

I'll tell her as soon as I can.

Are you and her together?

No.

No.

What's the matter?

Will you give me the number or not?

I told you.

I've got nothing to do with her private life.

Come on, let's have a drink.

Will you give it to me or not?

Sorry, but I can't do that.

Did you fuck her?

No, I just told you.

Have a drink.

You fucked her?

I said no.

Did you fuck her?

I'd rather fuck you, how about that?

What the hell?

Had enough?

Hello?

I'll be right down.

Thank you.

Morning.

Morning.

Sleep well? -Yeah, how about you?

I...

Pretty good, I think.

Excuse me.

The director wants to speak to you.

I can go by myself, thanks

Director.

Good job.

You too.

We're about to shoot the last scene.

When you enter your dad's house...

You'll find he has already passed away.

You'll see the photos he secretly took...

...because he's loved you for so long.

I hope when you see the photos...

you'll think of your real father

...very fondly.

I hope you can release your true feelings.

But I've never experienced that.

You'll know what it is.

Give it a try.

You okay?

Do you think my dad loves me?

Let me look at you.

Okay, let's shoot one.

90B-1, take1.

Here is his study.

Let me show you something.

Sometimes he would stay here alone all night.

He thought I didn't know.

But I always knew.

He was looking at photos of you.

What's this mean?

"My daughter is a champion."

Cut.

Thanks.

Yang-Yang!

Hey kiddo...

I'm right here.
