Original subtitles

You don't deserve this ring.

What are you doing?

I'm taking back everything I own.

A person like you

deserves nothing.

You're just a loser in denial.

Who are you to demand anything?

After all, he didn't choose you. He chose me.

Hey.

Just accept the truth for once.

What are you doing? Let go of me!

Let go!

Cut! Okay, great job!

Once we're shooting for real,

Ingdao, I want you to

get up here,

and you two will tug back and forth

like this, and I'll do an insert to make it look scary.

- Okay? - Got it.

How about this?

When Dao and I are tugging,

I'm thinking

I could hold her arm like this, and we'll glare at each other first,

just to make sure she's safe.

Sounds good.

- Help her change shoes, we're doing it. - Okay!

I'll hold you tightly first to make sure you don't fall.

Those shoes are Pat's. These are yours.

PATCHANIN

Can I wear these instead? They match the dress better.

But Tle prepared these for you, Dao.

They're safer.

But I want to wear these.

What are you doing?! Let go of me!

I told you to let go!

Hey!

Go check on her!

Dao!

TEN YEARS LATER

You're all so lucky to have been joined

by a leading lady who taught today's class.

Come on now, leading lady?

It's been five years since I got married and stopped acting.

You can't call me that anymore.

But I'm glad to use my experience to teach all of you.

Students,

if you have any questions about script analysis,

feel free to ask me next class.

For today, I'll leave Jarinya to answer your questions.

See you next time.

Jarinya.

I'm sorry, I really have to go.

It's your anniversary today,

yet you're here helping.

I'm the one who should be thanking you.

Just hurry. Your husband must be dying to see you.

- See you. - Alright.

Patchanin, can I get a picture with you?

Sure.

Can I get a selfie too?

Of course.

Thank you!

- Thank you. - Bye.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

You're a celebrity.

Yes.

No wonder

you just walk around like you own the place.

What's your problem?

What do you think?

Rath.

Happy anniversary, honey.

Thank you.

Have a seat.

Pat.

Today I have a guest

I want you to meet.

Again?

This way, sir.

Here.

Good afternoon.

Pat, this is Mr. Ethan Lee,

a Singaporean businessman

interested in my project, "Around Asia."

Nice to meet you, Mrs. Patchanin.

Good afternoon, Mr. Lee.

Let's sit down.

- Excuse me. - Sure.

Thank you for your interest

in investing

in my husband's project.

Actually, I'm interested in your other projects as well.

So today, I also invited my partner here to discuss with us.

There he is.

Good afternoon.

That's Mr. Tham, CEO of Nile Real Estate.

I'm sorry for being late.

Have a seat.

This is your partner?

Correct.

Shall we order some food? This could take a while.

No, it's fine.

I'm just here to warn Mr. Lee that your project is too risky.

It's obvious how successful my project is.

You think I made up my profit numbers?

It brings in great income because you use low-quality materials.

There are bound to be problems in the long run.

Excuse me?

Anyway, I'm out.

If you'll excuse me.

Hold on!

If I upset you somehow

to the point where you won't talk to my husband, I'm sorry.

But,

please don't let that affect his work.

I don't mix personal matters with business.

And I've already explained why I won't invest in his project.

I may not know much about business,

but I'm sure my husband

has planned everything carefully.

I really wonder

if you just love your husband so much

that you're blind to the truth,

or if you've chosen to stay in the same boat as him.

But I must warn you,

once you're in the wrong boat,

be prepared to drown.

Hold on! Wait!

Dao, you're starring in a new drama soon, right?

Our new queen of TV ratings!

Definitely, but I can't reveal the details yet.

The producer and station will announce it.

Oh, it's Patchanin!

Wait, wait.

- Yes? - Come join us.

Let's not waste this chance.

Hello, everyone.

- Hello. - Hello.

Pat, I didn't know you were also coming

to Mrs. Mani's event today. You're not on the VIP guest list.

I'm here today

just to celebrate my anniversary with my husband.

Since we bumped into each other,

why don't you take a picture of the real queen of TV ratings

and the new queen of TV ratings,

both of us together?

- Sounds good! - Perfect!

You wouldn't mind, right?

Of course not.

You're pressing charges against my daughter?

Patchanin pushed me down the stairs on purpose.

I think you brought it on yourself.

My daughter is innocent.

More importantly,

maybe you don't realize,

you didn't just hurt yourself falling down the stairs.

You also had a miscarriage.

That's not true.

That's not true!

If you still care about

your reputation and career,

step down from the leading lady role.

I'll help cover up the news of your miscarriage.

I really can't stand

seeing Pat lower herself

to work with a trashy celebrity like you.

Here, so you don't think I'm being cruel.

Consider it compensation for stepping aside from the leading role

for a rising star like you.

I do believe, even if the accident hadn't happened,

someone like you

would've gotten an abortion anyway.

Right?

Stand a little closer you two.

The color you picked is a classic one.

We'll call you when new ones in that tone arrive.

Alright.

Thank you so much.

Thank you.

Why are you in my way? Move!

I'm afraid I can't. May I search your bag before you leave?

You have no right to search my bag.

Move!

After we pick up Ava, let's go eat first.

Oops.

Patchanin.

Hi.

What a coincidence.

You two were once close friends,

and like the same things.

It's no surprise you run into each other so often.

- Move! - No ma'am.

- Move! - Let me search your bag.

- No! Let go! - Give me it!

Pu!

What happened?

Why are you treating a customer this way?

Search her bag and you'll know.

Did you steal?

What's going on Ava?

Help me, Aunt Dao. She called me a thief!

Good afternoon, Ms. Ingdao.

Are you blind or something?

She's my daughter, Ms. Ingdao's niece. And you're calling her a thief?

She's your niece?

Explain this then.

Why would I steal that?

A cheap bag like this, I could buy ten if I wanted.

She put it in my bag to frame me.

Why would I do that? We don't even know each other.

How about this?

Good afternoon, Mrs. Patchanin.

Just check the cameras.

Sounds good. Then you'll see.

Hey!

That's unnecessary.

I'll buy that bag.

And also this one, this one, and that one.

Of course.

Pu, go ahead and help her.

But they're thieves.

No one would want to steal a dirty bag like this one.

Also, ring up all those bags for me.

Oops.

Sorry, it slipped. Would you pick it up for me?

Pu, pick it up for her. Come on.

Oh, wait. I'll use this card instead.

This one has a higher limit.

Oops.

It slipped again.

My bad.

Or should I use another one?

I have so many. It's hard to choose.

Hey!

Don't you think this is too much?

None of your business.

Tomorrow I'll bring my celebrity friends

to buy ten more bags from your store.

- Really? - But…

I don't want to see this tasteless employee,

who can't even tell your VIP customers apart,

working here again.

Even better if she's gone today.

Pu, go pack up your things. Now.

I apologize on her behalf.

No worries,

but I hope you won't spread the word about what happened today.

Of course. We wouldn't want to defame our customers.

Wait!

I already quit. What else do you want?

Contact this number.

This store will surely hire you.

Ms. Ingdao covered up her niece's crime with a bribe,

and now you're buying my silence with a job?

In my current state, I'm powerless against the two of you.

No need to do charity work for a poor girl like me.

You're always helping those who don't deserve it.

Do you get it now,

why I had to teach her a lesson?

But wasn't that a little too much?

She lost her job.

So you decided to be a justice warrior

helping kids in poverty?

Trying to grow your fanbase?

But you're no longer a leading lady, so that's unnecessary.

You're right.

But at least I'm not like someone

who's known for her leading lady role

yet behaves the opposite way.

What I did today

is nothing compared to what you did to me.

If this is about ten years ago,

why didn't you just talk to me back then?

Why give me the leading lady role?

I'll walk there.

It just arrived today.

I picked your favorite color. Try holding it.

Thank you.

Do you like it?

Um…

On the bill, it says chain straps.

But these are leather straps.

They must have delivered the wrong bag.

My apologies. I didn't check well enough before I accepted it.

Right.

Pumeth and I were quite busy discussing about Mr. Lee,

so we didn't notice the mistake.

Everything's going wrong.

I'll have it replaced for you.

- Why don't you take your break? - Yes, sir.

Rath.

Are you having problems at work?

Mr. Lee won't invest in my company.

He said he'd only invest in Nile Real Estate.

I didn't take him for that kind of person.

But I already spoke to my dad for you about the land in Sathon.

You can go ahead and quote a price.

Really, honey?

I already told you,

I'll do anything I can to help you.

You're my husband.

And about the bag,

no need to waste time replacing it. I can use it.

Isn't my wife just the best?

I only work here now. I probably can't help you anymore.

Why don't you go find a new job then?

Or a full-time job?

Don't tell me you plan on working all these jobs

just so you can chase that dream of yours.

Can you quit thinking about it already?

It's unrealistic.

Hey! You thief! Get over here!

How dare you, stealing in broad daylight!

Me? A thief?

What if I don't leave?

What would you do?

Stay back.

What's going on Pu?

Pop, there's a thief in our shop.

What thief? That's Jane.

He just started working here.

And why didn't you come meet me at the front first?

I was going to grab my uniform and apron

before going,

but I didn't know where to find them.

And then someone came calling me a thief.

He's a new employee?

Yes. Please take good care of him.

Where's my apron?

This is what it looks like before the first round of Star Sea's audition.

They're looking for fresh faces to become Sea Seven Channel's actors.

I came because of my passion. I want to be a star.

I want our seven finalists today

to have some experience

or have taken acting classes before,

so when the audition is over

they are ready to work right away.

Especially those with talent,

let's just let them pass. Sounds good?

But some may not have any talent.

They'd be at a disadvantage.

If we use that criteria, it just means

we're not giving a chance to those willing to learn.

Pat, this is not an acting school.

This is an audition,

not a charity for children in need.

Who said anything about charity for children in need?

We don't want our audition to be unfair though, do we?

Word will get out that the committee who are supposedly

honorable and famous

chose only their own people as finalists.

Oops, looks like

a certain celebrity has family coming to audition.

What matters most is the sponsors' satisfaction,

whatever type of person they want.

Everyone, this is Mr. Tham,

the CEO of Nile Real Estate,

one of our biggest sponsors. He'll join our committee today.

Here you go.

Excuse me, I'd like to check in!

Time's up for check-ins.

If you want to be a star,

first you have to be punctual.

I'm sorry.

Please help me out.

Could you let it slide? Just this once?

No.

Please go inside and check in Ava.

You said rules are rules,

how come she gets to check in?

Ah,

so the show treats her differently because she's Ms. Ingdao's niece?

So she gets to do whatever she wants?

Excuse me?

What's going on?

Ava.

Pu!

Hello. I'm number 29, Ava Kantrakarn.

My talents are singing,

playing the piano, and ballet.

She's pretty

and also skillful.

Go ahead and act out what you've prepared.

Don't you know?

For me,

no matter how long I stay sad,

I'll never let go of…

let go of…

my thoughts.

…my thoughts.

Eyebrows?

The memories

we share will…

Ava!

You're so irresponsible!

Let it go, Dao. It already happened.

We can't go back and fix it.

Dao, how's Ava doing?

She's just anxious because she takes this very seriously.

That's why it happened. She's doing better now though.

We only have one candidate left.

Let's begin.

Hello. I'm number 30,

Chompunuch Pattara Amornlert.

STAR SEA CHANNEL AUDITION

Found you.

Pat talked to them for you.

If Ava gets to audition, you should get to audition too.

I didn't think Mrs. Pat would--

She just likes fairness.

Oh, but…

don't you have any talents?

No.

I was an orphan.

I grew up with just my older brother,

so I never got to take extra classes.

But I have a dream just like anybody else.

That's why I'm chasing it,

and so I came here to audition.

Have you prepared an act?

Please begin.

Alright.

I have a dream just like any other girl,

and I've been trying my best to make it come true.

But in the end,

it's all taken by someone

who's incompetent but privileged.

And they're not even ashamed to abuse their power.

- But I think-- - I've seen it often.

Those who fail

then blame others.

That type of person

is nothing

but a sore loser.

With a pro like Ingdao joining her, how can she pull it off?

Those who don't know their place,

thinking they're so great

even when they have nothing to offer,

you really think they can win?

If you want to look down on me,

just know I won't surrender.

Today you may be above me,

but someday,

I'll rise above you.

You!

Great job, Chompunuch!

Well done.

Great job.

Hey,

won't you thank me a little?

They admire you this much because of me.

Thank you.

Great job.

Pu.

Why are you here?

You skipped work to audition here,

so I had to deliver the coffee here.

Wanna be a star?

You think it's bad?

I didn't say anything.

Plus, you did a great job.

Ms. Ingdao joined you unexpectedly,

yet you did so well.

In my opinion,

you definitely passed. Good luck.

Thanks.

With the total score,

here are our seven finalists.

In two weeks, we'll have them debut with the press.

And we'll announce the rules of the final round.

What?! Oh my god!

Ava passed but Pu didn't?

That's not fair!

Why isn't Chompunuch on the list?

How would she pass?

Her score wasn't enough.

But we all saw how good she was.

For transparency,

may I see the scores before the judgment?

We both passed.

And the name of that cheap bag seller isn't on here.

Really?

How do you know the results already?

This is the total score from the committee.

What are you doing here?

This is the committee's meeting room. Get out!

The scores leaked.

I can accept it

if I don't pass because of my performance,

but if it's because of the committee's bias,

I can't allow it. I demand transparency.

Would you be satisfied if you saw the scores?

Yes.

Those are the scores we gave you.

I believe there's a mistake with the score sheet.

I found this torn-up score sheet.

It's Chompunuch's.

Don't worry,

I talked to the committee for you.

Everyone agreed to change their scores

the way you wanted.

With such a mistake,

I think we should check the cameras--

You're right!

Why is it all torn up like this?

This shouldn't have happened!

So, how about we total the scores once again to be fair.

Kiki.

Please have her wait outside.

Let's go, Pu.

Come.

Yes, we have today's seven finalists now.

We have many more events coming,

so please stay tuned for our project.

If you'll excuse me.

Mrs. Pat.

I'm sorry I misunderstood you.

I was disrespectful too.

You're not like

the others who always look down on me.

I judge a person's worth

based on their conscience.

I should go to work now. Thank you so much for today.

Good luck, Pu.

But I disagree with her.

You were once a skilled actress.

God knows

if you demanding justice for the audition today

was just another role you're playing.

Sometimes I'm confused

about what kind of person you are.

That's not important.

But you must be upset with me

because I see right through you.

More like because you're biased.

That's why you see me so negatively.

You took away my husband's opportunity.

Aren't you satisfied already?

Is that why you're saying all this to me?

I see you negatively?

I don't think so.

A girl who marries a guy like your husband

must either be dumb

or just as bad as him.

Yes, Kiki?

You're in the lobby?

Sure, I'll see you there.

On the bill, it says chain straps.

But these are leather straps.

They must've delivered the wrong bag.

My apologies. I didn't check well enough before I accepted it.

Right.

I should leave now.

Thank you for today.

A girl who marries a guy like your husband

must either be dumb or just as bad as him.

He's just trying to annoy me. It's all just a coincidence.

What?

What's going on?

Mr. Taweerath's wife is being targeted.

But by whom?

Mrs. Pat, someone left this in your mailbox.

How did you know bad things have been happening to me lately?

You said you had a problem with the host.

I'm only here to find the truth.

If your attitude and your heart are cheap,

you're no better than me.

NEXT EPISODE

Everyone, there's my wife!

Hey!
