A Good Child (2025) Movie Script
Drink! Drink! Drink!
Drink! Drink! Drink!
Drink! Drink! Drink!
Drink! Drink! Drink!
Very thirsty.
Drink! Drink! Drink!
Drink like a superstar!
She messed me up since I was young.
Do you know what she said?
We need to finish our food.
Don't drop it everywhere.
If not, your future wife
will have many pimples.
My boyfriend's face
is smoother than my butt.
The most classic of all,
she said that
girls must wear pink, boys must wear blue,
so we will not get confused.
Because after I grew up,
I am not confused.
Blue
Bananas.
Hey, Auntie Juhua.
- It's ready.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
- Wishing you prosperity in the new year.
- Wishing you good business all year round.
- Thank you.
Boss? How much for this cabbage?
- $2.50 for one packet.
- So expensive?
- Can't help it, it's Singapore.
- Price increases every lunar new year.
- Give me two packets.
- Okay, two packets.
Be careful.
- You forgot to take this.
- So sorry.
- Getting older. My memory is failing.
- Walk carefully.
Happy new year. Bye.
I'll make you your coffee.
LESS LIFE
Happy new year.
Wish you all have happy endings
and get sexier every day.
Wishing that everything
will go smooth for you.
- One more red packet for your kid at home.
- Thank you.
I didn't forget you.
- Wishing you youth and beauty.
- Yes.
But you are not allowed
to be prettier than me.
Thank you, Your Highness.
- $500!
- Not so loud, please?
No manners.
Can you guess how much our lady gave us?
$500!
Come for dinner if you are free.
I'm getting more muddle-headed.
I forgot to turn the tap off. Thanks.
No problem, Auntie, you're busy.
- Help me bring these two plates down.
- Okay.
Big Brother, wishing you a happy new year,
good health and recover soon.
It's the same routine.
Flying here and there.
Jiaqiang, I heard you always
fly to Bangkok?
It's the company's arrangement.
What's saucy in Thailand?
I mean tasty.
Uncle Alan,
everything is spicy in Thailand.
He doesn't eat spicy food. Right?
Son. Come here quickly. Eat together.
Come, eat, eat, eat.
These are all cooked and can be eaten.
So much food.
Brother Jiaqiang,
is Brother Jiahao coming for dinner?
He is working.
Just like the artistes
in the TV station every new year.
They have to perform for us to watch.
So he can't come home for dinner.
Happy new year.
Here's my red packets for you.
Wishing y'all stay safe and protected.
Don't get unexpected pregnancies!
Come suck me, da!
Come suck me, da!
Come suck me, da!
How much did you get?
Rupiah? Cheap! Damn it
Don't swear. Don't get angry.
I'll pay for supper.
Thank you, my lady, you are so nice.
What's for supper?
Let's have prata.
Let's have our usual, dim sum.
Okay! Dim sum is quick and fast.
Hopefully, tonight,
my son doesn't sleep too early.
D, there's only one call every new year,
but there's three calls this year.
I better buy a lottery ticket.
I will surely win the lottery.
Hello, miss me so much?
Hello. You can just place it there.
Don't take it that way.
No one will say you're not coming
because of taboo.
My mother understands.
The funeral is day after tomorrow.
Yes, the day after tomorrow. Bye.
Condolences to you and your family.
Mother, the MP is talking to you.
See, the MP is not afraid of taboo.
Maybe there's an election this year.
Why did you dress like this?
Who is not allowing it? The Government?
Rest in peace.
I will not be a bother anymore.
- No need.
- Take it.
- No need.
- Take it.
- I said no need.
- Trying to be naggier than me?
I'm a faggot, you know.
Whose father has seen you in a dress?
Me.
- Really?
- Really.
I'm not talking about a sugar daddy.
Whose father has seen you in dress
and your dad praised you,
"You are so beautiful."
No.
Of course not, right? You know why?
- Why?
- Because your daddies are straight.
If not, why will they fuck your mother
and give birth to you?
And
Who was beaten by your father?
Me.
My butt is so firm now.
Mother, did you forget
to turn off the tap?
The tap is still running.
I wanted to make coffee for your dad,
filled the water and forgot.
Thank you for helping me turn it off.
Jiaqiang, go downstairs, wake your father.
Don't let him sleep all day.
He gets dizzy after too much napping.
Once I am done with the coffee,
take it down for him.
Do you think your mother is okay?
We'll need to care for her.
How can you,
with your frequent trips to Bangkok?
You forgot to turn off the gas stove.
I forgot?
Do you know it's very dangerous?
Okay.
Let's discuss again.
He wants me to go back
to take care of Mother.
I wonder how much
that old shop house is worth.
Why are you back?
For the family inheritance.
Mother, I need to travel for work,
so I asked him to move back.
Move back for?
He'll be at home
when I'm working in the day,
and I'm at home
when he's working at night.
We can take turns.
Take turns to?
To take care of you. Gosh!
Why do you need to take care of me?
Leave quickly.
Don't let your father see,
he'll beat you to death.
What are you talking about?
Are you here
to drive your father to his grave?
He's dead already.
- Why did you curse him?
- Are you nuts?
Why did you curse your father?
Why did you curse your father?
- Why did you curse your father?
- Mother, Father is dead.
He's really dead. He's dead.
Did you forget?
He's dead?
Take a look.
All prices are increasing.
I went to the market
and bought some vegetables.
- It's very expensive.
- Yes.
I went to the market yesterday.
Just two types of vegetables
and so expensive.
The price keeps going up. Yes.
Do you know that guy
The report from the hospital is back.
Your mother has dementia
and needs medication to control it.
And
She will start losing her memories.
Will she recover?
She will eventually forget
the way back home.
Hey, fam, anyone knows
how one gets dementia?
Spencer69:
They will get it when they are old
My mother is not fat, okay?
So vain, drink and smoke so much.
SparkyDolores: Keep them company.
Looking forward to your jokes!
It's not funny. Mind your jokes.
I'm tired.
Are you done thinking?
Oh, my God!
Where is your father? Where did he go?
He was talking to me,
and then he left
when you switched on the lights.
I turned off the lights.
Is Father back? Tell me.
How to see when it's so dark?
The lights are on, can you see?
I told you that he left already.
What time is it? Go and sleep.
I'm hungry. I want frog porridge.
It's so late and you want to eat?
I'd cook whatever you wanted
when you were young.
Now I ask you to take me out for food.
Is that so difficult?
When I was young
You still remember
what I loved to eat when I was young?
Dried radish omelette.
The dried radish must not be too salty.
I need to rinse it
and fry only after adding sugar.
You were so picky.
It was hard raising you, you know?
It's here.
Auntie, tuck in.
- You are all so pretty.
- Thank you.
Glad y'all are eating supper at Geylang.
Not only does Geylang have frog porridge,
it has other stuff too.
Use glutinous rice chicken
to stuff your mouth.
My mouth can only be stuffed
with Taiwanese sausage.
I like Taiwanese sausage too.
Mother, only I can have Taiwanese sausage.
- Why only you can eat? I can eat too.
- Just eat your porridge.
Do y'all want boyfriends?
No, they have a lot already. Get in line.
Smelly faggots.
Our lady
I mean our brother
knows how to deal with these.
Since he was young, he has a foul mouth.
What do you mean?
I got first prize in school every year
for public speaking, okay?
Is it true, Auntie?
That he was a smart kid?
But the school didn't like him.
Eventually, he got kicked out.
- Why did you get kicked out?
- Because I was too pretty.
Just eat.
Mother is missing.
- I brought mother out for supper.
- You should have left me a message.
I'm going to the airport.
Can you handle her?
I'll bring her home.
Mother, I placed one of these here
and one more upstairs.
This timetable will let you know
what time to wake up,
brush your teeth, wash your face,
what time is breakfast, lunch and dinner,
what time to take your medications.
This is very important.
What time for you to go to the toilet too.
Our contact numbers are below.
If you don't have enough money
for marketing, you can call us.
Better not call me.
You call Jiaqiang, he's richer.
Did you steal my money?
What?
You stole money again.
Why would I steal your money?
I'm giving you money.
You didn't?
- Where is my money?
- How would I know?
How old are you already?
Why are you stealing again,
just like when you were a child?
Do you want a beating?
Your father will beat you to death
if he finds out.
I didn't steal money when I was young
and I won't steal now.
Do you know how much I earn?
Why would I care about your petty cash?
You're not going to admit it?
Okay, I will call the police to catch you.
Just call. You're nuts.
You better leave.
If your father sees this,
he'll beat you to death.
Father's dead already.
Don't beat him.
Don't beat him. It's my fault.
I did not bring him up well.
No, please don't beat him.
Don't beat him. Jiahao, run quickly.
No, no. Please, go away.
Don't beat him. It's my fault.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Go away.
It's been so many years,
she still thinks I stole her money.
Who are you talking about? Your mom?
Who else? Why the fuck did I call you?
No worries.
Do you need me to come over?
No need.
You do your work, okay?
Girl.
Go away. Jiahao is not here.
There are no bad people outside.
Jiahao is not here.
Jiahao is not here.
- What are you doing inside? Come out.
- You're back.
- Come in quickly.
- Come out.
- Come in and hide.
- Okay.
Quickly come in and hide.
Quickly come in and hide.
- Mother, did you call the police?
- Not me, your father.
He said you stole the money
so he called the police.
I was waiting for you
so we can hide together.
Quickly come in.
He will beat you to death if he sees you.
Mother, I really didn't steal any money.
The police told me
they caught the real thief.
We got the money back too.
Really?
Father is drinking coffee.
He said everything is fine.
He will not beat me.
- He won't?
- He won't.
You don't believe me?
You can ask the police.
You caught the thief already, right?
We got back the money too, right?
Yes, Auntie. We caught the real thief.
- Then you won't arrest Jiahao?
- We won't.
- Really won't arrest him?
- We won't.
Come, Auntie, let's come out of there.
Let's talk outside.
- Please don't arrest him.
- I won't.
- Is your father outside?
- Yes.
It's important
to take your medications on time.
And your timetable
is very important, okay?
You need people to take care of you now.
Don't be stubborn, all right?
Dr. Lim
How will I end up?
Let's exercise.
All done.
- Are you monitoring me?
- I'm letting you monitor me.
You can see if I stole your money.
My photo is here,
and Jiaqiang's photo too,
so you will remember.
Take photos of the things
you're afraid you might forget, okay?
Mother, I change the stove
to an electrical one.
Here is the power switch.
Will you remember?
- Yes.
- Take a video with your phone.
There's water and no water.
There's water and no water.
This is to turn it on.
Where is this at?
Power on.
- Where?
- Power on.
She is Ah Zhu.
She wants to take photos of you all
so she won't forget.
Mother, have you eaten?
- Huh?
- Check your alarm.
Dementia patients sometimes suspect people
of stealing their money.
All these are delusions.
As a caretaker, you have to learn
what is real and what is fake.
Who stole my money?
Who stole my money?
Why is my money missing?
Why is the box empty?
There's no more money.
Mother don't panic. We have CCTV.
Let's see who stole your money, okay?
Come on. Play.
See properly.
Is anyone there? Anyone?
No one, right?
- Is there anyone?
- No one.
Nobody.
Is there anyone? Nobody stole your money.
Mother, your money is here.
Nobody took it.
It's there.
As long as it's not missing.
Male, then female,
male, then female, male, then female.
So very convenient.
It is very hard for faggots
to earn a living in Singapore.
I'm really very tired.
SparkyDolores:
It must be tough on you!
LimJack:
You're taking care of a dementia patient.
You need to be taken care of too.
What do you mean, I'm weak?
You try taking care of a dementia patient.
Don't come and be a keyboard warrior.
I have to check
what time she eats every day,
takes her medication, poops, pees,
sleeps, and make sure she's still alive.
Don't say already.
SparkyDolores:
So how's your mother now?
Getting harder to please.
She makes no sense at all.
I explain to her when she's wrong,
but she always thinks it's my fault.
Not once is it her mistake.
My gosh. I'm going crazy.
JoshuaC:
Your mummy didn't mean it.
LimJack: By taking care of her,
you're very filial already.
Be filial to her?
It's the hardest task on earth.
LimJack:
Don't fight with her.
Just let her be,
that's being filial already.
Don't be so hard on yourself, okay?
Mother, are you nuts?
Why are you holding a knife?
- Who are you?
- I'm Jiahao.
You're here to steal my money?
Mother, I am Jiahao.
Jiahao is a guy not a woman.
You're lying. I'm calling the police.
I'm your daughter.
You have dementia. Do you remember?
Come with me. Let me explain.
Look here. There are three names here.
The one in the middle
is your son, Jiaqiang.
He's in Bangkok.
The one on top is me, Jiahao.
The one below is Grace.
She is your future daughter-in-law.
She will treat you badly in the future.
Can you remember?
If you don't believe me, check your phone.
Oh, gosh, Mother. Put down the knife.
You told us to put our photos
in your phone so you won't forget.
Remember?
This is your son, Jiaqiang.
And this is me.
Your daughter.
Yes.
Yuehao?
Huh?
Yes, that's me.
I'm so quick-witted.
Who knew I can play with dementia
this way?
Now I can reconstruct her memories
willy nilly.
Who stole lipstick when you were young?
Who?
And now?
It's a little smudged over here.
I take her out shopping.
- This is pretty.
- Take a photo.
- The one at the back is pretty.
- Take a photo.
What about me? Am I pretty?
- Pretty.
- Take a photo.
Two for $10.
Pretty.
Smelly faggot.
Manners, Mother!
There's more.
I told her I wanted to cosplay Chang-e
when I was young,
she asked me to play Wu Gang instead.
But now?
$4.
Prosperity to you.
Auntie, your bento.
Rude.
If that neighbor is not happy,
ask her to report it to the police.
Remember, handsome MP.
Mother, he says you are very brave.
You are the blue one
and the rest is all of us.
- D, is my mother beautiful?
- Yes, Auntie is so beautiful.
Come sit here. Sit carefully.
Thanks, D.
No problem.
It's been a long time
since we took a photo together.
Is it?
Is the new year coming?
Yes, new year is coming.
Mother, what are you doing?
Mother, don't touch,
these are very expensive.
Jiahao, sit down and take a photo.
- Huh?
- Sit down.
Take photo.
Look here.
Look at the lens.
One, two, three.
One more.
Look to my left.
That's right.
One, two, three.
Beautiful.
One more time.
Come here. Let's take a photo together.
Let David do it.
Auntie, you're so good at this.
When I was young,
my family ran a photo studio.
Really?
Next time, when Auntie is free,
please share your work with me.
It's all burned.
What's all burned?
It's all burned.
- It's all burned.
- Mother.
It's all burned.
All the photos are burned.
Mother, calm down.
It's all burned.
Mother, calm down.
Mother.
- Mother, calm down.
- It's all burned.
Mother. Nothing is burned.
Nothing is burned.
It's all right. No one's blaming you.
- No one is blaming you.
- I'm sorry, it is all my fault.
It is all burned, it is my fault.
Mother, do you remember?
The new year is coming.
The new year is coming.
We're going home for reunion dinner.
I'm still waiting for your red packet.
- The new year?
- Yes.
- Go home.
- Go home.
Let's go home and have reunion dinner.
- Reunion dinner.
- Yes.
- Let's go home.
- Let's go home.
Let's go home.
Let's go home.
I'm sorry.
Cheers!
Wishing the Empress Dowager
the best spirit and the best of health.
Thank you. Happy new year.
I will give you all red packets.
Mother, no need to give them,
they're all married.
Yes. I have many husbands.
- Slut.
- Really?
What about him?
Do I need to give him a red packet?
Yes. He hasn't married your daughter yet.
- He's Jiahao's boyfriend?
- Yes.
You're Jiahao's boyfriend?
What's your name?
David.
David.
You're Jiahao's boyfriend?
Yes, Mother.
He helped us take photos this morning.
Then I will need to take your photo.
I have to remember you.
No need.
- Smile.
- Smile.
- I will give you a red packet.
- Sister-in-law.
Oh, gosh.
Sister-in-law, I'm here
to move the massage chair back.
Who are you?
Who are you looking for?
I am Ah Tin.
It's like this.
When Big Brother was around,
I lent the massage chair to him
for his therapy.
And now that he is
So I'm here to move it back.
The massage chair
Did we borrow it from you?
Yes. I already told Jiaqiang
that I will come move it.
Thank you, Second Aunt.
You're so generous.
You
Jiahao?
- Brother Jiahao.
- Call me sister.
- Don't call.
- Yes, a bitch shouldn't bark.
Jiaqiang, you're back at the right time.
This house and the inheritance.
You'd better keep an eye on them.
- Are we still moving?
- Of course.
I will call the police if you dare.
Jiaqiang.
Fortunately I'm not staying long.
Since you're staying here,
you better be careful not to get AIDS.
It's best you get AIDS!
- You cunt!
- You, you, you
What about me?
- How dare you scold me?
- Why not?
- I'm older than you.
- What reasoning is that?
You think you're better
just because you're older?
You can speak however you want?
I'm older than you.
It's just one massage chair.
What's the big deal? I don't want it.
You come to my house
and bully my daughter.
You better say sorry to Jiahao.
Say sorry to her right now. Say sorry.
Jiaqiang, you tell her.
I will not say sorry to him.
Auntie, it's okay.
Do you remember what you told me just now?
You said you hated this massage chair
so much.
- Did I?
- Yes, you did.
You said it when we were having hotpot.
Let's move it away, okay?
Okay. Yes, move it now.
- Move.
- Come, let's move it.
Should have done so earlier. Excuse me.
You cunt.
Jiahao
Sister, bye-bye.
Good kid. Bye-bye.
Bye-bye.
Someone bullied your sister.
Why didn't you help her?
- You're such a useless brother.
- Huh?
You're such a useless brother. Useless.
You are really useless.
Auntie?
You said you wanted
to give me a red packet?
Yes. I will give it to you now.
Hey, dude. I'm your sister now.
- Prosperity to you and your family.
- Let's eat.
Have you called the police?
You irritating tranny.
Mother, come eat breakfast.
Playing hide and seek?
Not here.
Where is Mother?
How would I know?
What do you know exactly?
Hey, dude. Mother.
- Mother.
- Oh, no!
You help her.
Her head.
Be careful.
Gosh!
You scared the shit out of us, Mother.
- Mother, are you okay?
- Painful.
- Where are you in pain?
- Very painful.
- We'll take you to the doctor.
- Let's go to the doctor.
Auntie, what were you doing in the toilet?
I was searching for something.
Oh, gosh, Mother.
What is there to look for in the toilet
other than shit?
The toilet was slippery
and I fell down,
hit my mouth, it's very painful.
Don't worry, it's okay now.
Jiaqiang.
Take care of your mother.
I can't find it.
Mother, what are you looking for?
Don't be sorry. I'm sorry to you, okay?
Oh, no! I cannot find it.
What exactly are you looking for?
I'm looking for something.
Whatever it is,
I can help you look for it. Okay?
I want to go find it.
- Where to look for it?
- In the toilet.
- Which toilet?
- The toilet in Choa Chu Kang.
Choa Chu Kang?
Okay, I'll go with you to find it.
I think it's best that
we send her to a nursing home.
I've checked out a few places.
These ones have similar rates.
Then I feel that
This one's location and follow up services
are the most cost efficient.
Are you doing sales?
How long have you prepared this for?
I can't do it for sure.
Is she your wife?
Aren't you afraid
you'll be struck by lightning?
What problem?
So you think throwing money
at someone else will solve the problem?
- Hello, my dick!
- What right do you have to yell and shout?
Huh?
I don't even want to ask why you're back.
That's enough.
What the fuck are you filming?
Can you not be so loud?
Fuck you.
If I'm not loud, who can hear me?
Aren't you embarrassed?
So you know how to feel embarrassed?
Okay. Let me ask you.
Do you want to take care of Mother?
If you can't, I'll do it.
We will give you the house.
Cutting a deal now?
You're not afraid your kid
will be born without an ass?
I don't want to see him.
I don't want to see him.
You make coffee for him.
- Tell him not to bother me.
- Okay, Mother, I'll make coffee.
Why don't you just close your eyes?
You won't see him anymore.
Bring her to her room, please.
- I don't want to see him.
- Be careful, Mother.
Ask him not to bother me.
- I'll take you to your room.
- I don't want to see him.
Be careful, Mother.
The nurse said that she needs
to have her medication after meals.
And make sure she goes to the toilet.
Got it.
I send her off.
Drink your coffee, Grandpa.
Jiahao, look at me.
Look here, you're so pretty.
One more shot.
What are you doing?
Why did you dress him up again?
I'll stop now.
Why does he wear dresses when he's a boy?
- I'll stop.
- You deserve a beating.
Stop! It's all my fault.
- Don't you dare wear it.
- It's all my fault.
Don't beat him, it's all my fault.
Jiahao, quickly, go hide.
Hide in the closet.
Run fast. Hide in the closet. Quickly!
Oh, gosh.
Mother shat in her pants?
Didn't the hospital gave her a diaper?
Did you check?
Damn it, did you check?
How can a son look at his mother's butt?
I thought you're the daughter.
Fuck you.
Auntie, I want to help you
check something.
Lie straight.
- She has rashes.
- Huh?
What are you all doing?
We're treating your buttocks.
Why do you need to treat my buttocks?
Because your buttocks is sick.
- Do buttocks get sick?
- Yes.
Sorry, Mother.
We forgot to change your diaper.
Now your buttocks is another color.
- What color?
- Huh?
I like purple.
Huh?
You like purple?
Purple is a nice color.
Is that so?
Wow! You're so pretty.
Purple is really pretty.
Auntie, look! There's an airplane.
Last time, I flew for SQ as a steward.
So deadpan.
So many ships.
Feels so good.
I want to go for a swim.
Are you nuts?
Who wants to swim with you?
Aren't you tired of being with me?
No.
With my situation, don't you think
it's a waste of time?
Depends on how you define "wasting time."
No matter how difficult it is,
how unhappy,
the one you can't leave is always home.
Don't stress yourself out.
The longer I'm with you,
the more memories I have.
It's not a waste.
Then why don't you ever ask
if I want to go to Taiwan with you?
When are you two getting married?
I'll dress up as a bride tonight.
Stop, stop, stop.
Auntie, don't disrupt the performance.
Mother, why did you stop us?
He is the groom, not him.
We're just performing.
David, you go up. You're the groom.
Both of you quickly get married.
The real bridegroom is over there.
A wedding please.
Wedding! Wedding! Wedding!
Shut up.
- We can't just get married.
- Why not?
Because of the law.
Government doesn't allow.
Else we'd have gotten married long ago.
Government doesn't allow. Mother allows.
Come on.
Come up.
Government doesn't allow.
Mother allows.
Hello, fam. I'm very happy today.
Let's have a Q&A session.
Let's start.
Thank you, Melon.
Spencer69: Why are you so thin?
Spencer, I'm so thin
because I have discipline.
I'm really very happy.
Thanks for caring, none of your business.
PasirReese, you're such a busybody.
Don't you worry.
And my mother is still around.
I won't risk any operations, get it?
Don't be so sensitive. Just ask me.
Do you remember me?
You look familiar.
It's okay.
I'm Dr. Lim.
Dr. Lim.
Let me take a photo.
If not, I will forget you.
Dr. Lim.
- Did you take your medications?
- Huh?
Did I?
- Yes.
- Yes, I did.
That's good.
Go wait outside for your medications.
Okay.
Jiahao.
You need to be mentally prepared
I suggest that since
she's still not forgotten everything,
write down some notes.
Best to state some things clearly.
I want to go to Choa Chu Kang.
I want to go to Choa Chu Kang now.
I want to go to Choa Chu Kang.
- Mother, what's going on?
- I want to go to Choa Chu Kang.
We used to live there.
- Why do you want to go?
- I want to find something.
It's very late.
We'll get it tomorrow, okay?
No, cannot. It might be thrown away.
I want to go now.
Take me to Choa Chu Kang.
Let's go back now. Okay?
We go now.
Stop. Stop the car.
Stop, stop, stop. Stop the car.
Stop the car, stop the car.
Mother, where are you going?
It's not here.
I remember this place.
I want to go scold that evil principal.
If not for him kicking you out of school,
you'd be a lawyer now.
Who wants to be a lawyer? Mother.
Mother, this is not Choa Chu Kang.
Evil principal.
Sir, you're not dead yet?
Lee Kay Ho.
What does he mean by that?
He's been fired already.
So, you were his teacher.
Let me ask you.
It was just a hug from behind.
Good friends are not allowed to hug?
Will someone die because of this?
Why was he expelled?
That time, many teachers also felt
that the punishment was too harsh.
I don't care what it is now.
Do you realize how much
this affected his whole life?
I must go and scold the principal.
He's been fired already.
Who do you want to go looking for?
- Let it go.
- Let it go. Sit down.
You did stand up for me,
just 20 years late.
I will take it as bad luck, okay?
Jiahao?
Yes?
Why didn't the gas kill me?
Isn't it better if I'm dead?
Don't have to trouble anyone.
"Change comes faster than your plans."
We got a resale HDB flat opposite.
We planned to visit weekly
after getting married.
But now Father is gone,
Mother has become like this.
I don't care about the house
or inheritance.
You think I take care of Mother
because I'm free?
What about you? You just keep avoiding.
Who stole my money?
Why is my money missing?
Why is my box empty?
Mother, stop panicking.
Let's check the CCTV.
I don't want to look at the CCTV.
You stole my money, return it.
Let's look at the CCTV
and see who stole your money.
- I don't want to look at the CCTV.
- Watch properly.
Return my money.
Check the CCTV
and see who took your money.
I stole the money.
It's not you.
It was Jiahao who stole the money.
I stole it.
Every time the money went missing,
it was me.
Why did you do that?
Do you know,
when Jiahao was young,
he was beaten up badly by your father?
Why did you love him more
when we were kids?
I'm going to be a father.
Don't be afraid.
What are you doing here?
Your father
heard you coming
and he left.
Really?
He said
he's too ashamed to face you.
You know he's dead, right?
I know.
He's dead.
Therefore,
he didn't have the chance
to apologize to you.
He wanted me to
help him say sorry to you.
Can you forgive him?
I forgive you.
Wake up.
Wakey, wakey.
Let's go to the wet market.
Let's go buy vegetables.
Let's go.
Wait. I haven't put on my makeup.
I can't let you be prettier than me.
Hello, I'm Dmummy.
I'm now at the wet market
to buy vegetables.
I'm getting some cabbage.
I always buy from the stall here.
The boss is very nice.
He always gives me a discount.
- Boss.
- Yes.
How much is the cabbage?
You're my VIP,
everything is discounted for you.
- Give me one of this.
- Okay, one of this?
Your mummy looks great.
- I want corn.
- Okay.
These long beans are nice too.
Let me choose some.
Jiahao, go buy some assorted tofu.
I'm choosing long beans
to fry with dried shrimps.
Boss.
Take a look at the long beans,
so nice, so fat.
Thank you, Uncle, please keep the change.
- Boss, where's my mother?
- She went to buy fruits.
- Where's the fruit stall?
- It's Ah Zhu's stall.
- Ah Zhu? Did you see my mother, Juhua?
- No.
Mother, you better be home.
Mother. Fuck! Where are you?
Where did you go?
And then she buy vegetables
and go missing.
Share the live stream.
Mother, where did you go?
Why did you only call back now?
Mother kept saying she wants
to return to the old house.
Why don't I meet you at Choa Chu Kang?
Okay, never mind.
We look around downstairs.
No trace of her.
This is the woman. Remember?
Your mother is in there.
Mother, what are you doing here?
Do you know we are all very worried?
Open it.
Huh?
Open it.
Jiaqiang's birth certificate.
And this birth certificate belongs to?
My daughter.
Her name was Yuehao.
And this adoption paper
When I first brought Jiahao home,
he was so cute.
I let Jiahao wear Yuehao's clothes.
When he wore the dresses,
he was so pretty.
I took many photos then.
But in the end,
they were all burned.
Your father blamed me.
He said how Jiahao turned out
is because of me.
Jiahao.
I'm sorry, Jiahao.
I'm so sorry.
Jiahao.
I'm sorry, Jiahao.
I'm so sorry.
Smoke?
Let me make you some noodles.
It will be okay. Have some noodles.
You'll feel better. Let's go.
Okay.
No worries. I will accompany you.
Have some noodles.
- You want some water?
- No, thanks.
- Please sit.
- Okay.
Where should I start?
Everybody called me
"the faggot's brother."
You know best how Mother treats you.
I just want to say,
it doesn't matter
if we're not biologically related.
I didn't know enough when I was young,
and sabotaged you many times.
When I grew up and knew right from wrong,
I still didn't have the courage
to apologize.
Jiahao.
I am very clear in my mind now.
I know it.
Therefore,
I better tell you fast.
If not, I'm afraid
I'm afraid I will lose my mind again.
I want to apologize to you.
If you can't forgive me,
I understand.
I want to thank you.
Thank you for taking me out.
Shopping.
Eating ice-cream.
I haven't been so happy in a long time.
I want to thank you for dolling me up.
I really like that.
Really love it.
I'm not sure if you noticed.
When you're happy and you smile,
you're so beautiful.
I'm very happy to see you smile.
So you must smile more, okay?
The most important thing is
you must take care of yourself. Okay?
Mother wanted to ask,
when are you coming home?
Don't worry.
He'll be home soon.
All the best.
- Mother.
- Auntie.
Get up.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared I'll forget who you are.
One, two, three.
Very nice.
Come to the center.
Auntie, what do you need?
What's up?
Take a photo together.
No need.
Take a photo together.
Okay.
- Thanks for helping out.
- All right.
Okay, look here. One, two, three.
Mother, Baby Bobby is looking for you.
Let Grandma carry him.
Photo time.
Bobby, take a photo.
Mother, photo time.
One, two, three.
One, two, three. Very beautiful.
Mother, here's your grandson.
Will Baby Bobby remember me?
Auntie, look this way.
Now he will remember.
- Jiahao.
- Yes?
Do you want to look for your real parents?
I've found you, haven't I?
Let's go home, okay?
Okay.
Let's go home.
Are folks like me born to be laughed at?
Is that really so?
You know what I'm gonna do?
I have a mother too.
Drink! Drink! Drink!
Drink! Drink! Drink!
Drink! Drink! Drink!
Very thirsty.
Drink! Drink! Drink!
Drink like a superstar!
She messed me up since I was young.
Do you know what she said?
We need to finish our food.
Don't drop it everywhere.
If not, your future wife
will have many pimples.
My boyfriend's face
is smoother than my butt.
The most classic of all,
she said that
girls must wear pink, boys must wear blue,
so we will not get confused.
Because after I grew up,
I am not confused.
Blue
Bananas.
Hey, Auntie Juhua.
- It's ready.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
- Wishing you prosperity in the new year.
- Wishing you good business all year round.
- Thank you.
Boss? How much for this cabbage?
- $2.50 for one packet.
- So expensive?
- Can't help it, it's Singapore.
- Price increases every lunar new year.
- Give me two packets.
- Okay, two packets.
Be careful.
- You forgot to take this.
- So sorry.
- Getting older. My memory is failing.
- Walk carefully.
Happy new year. Bye.
I'll make you your coffee.
LESS LIFE
Happy new year.
Wish you all have happy endings
and get sexier every day.
Wishing that everything
will go smooth for you.
- One more red packet for your kid at home.
- Thank you.
I didn't forget you.
- Wishing you youth and beauty.
- Yes.
But you are not allowed
to be prettier than me.
Thank you, Your Highness.
- $500!
- Not so loud, please?
No manners.
Can you guess how much our lady gave us?
$500!
Come for dinner if you are free.
I'm getting more muddle-headed.
I forgot to turn the tap off. Thanks.
No problem, Auntie, you're busy.
- Help me bring these two plates down.
- Okay.
Big Brother, wishing you a happy new year,
good health and recover soon.
It's the same routine.
Flying here and there.
Jiaqiang, I heard you always
fly to Bangkok?
It's the company's arrangement.
What's saucy in Thailand?
I mean tasty.
Uncle Alan,
everything is spicy in Thailand.
He doesn't eat spicy food. Right?
Son. Come here quickly. Eat together.
Come, eat, eat, eat.
These are all cooked and can be eaten.
So much food.
Brother Jiaqiang,
is Brother Jiahao coming for dinner?
He is working.
Just like the artistes
in the TV station every new year.
They have to perform for us to watch.
So he can't come home for dinner.
Happy new year.
Here's my red packets for you.
Wishing y'all stay safe and protected.
Don't get unexpected pregnancies!
Come suck me, da!
Come suck me, da!
Come suck me, da!
How much did you get?
Rupiah? Cheap! Damn it
Don't swear. Don't get angry.
I'll pay for supper.
Thank you, my lady, you are so nice.
What's for supper?
Let's have prata.
Let's have our usual, dim sum.
Okay! Dim sum is quick and fast.
Hopefully, tonight,
my son doesn't sleep too early.
D, there's only one call every new year,
but there's three calls this year.
I better buy a lottery ticket.
I will surely win the lottery.
Hello, miss me so much?
Hello. You can just place it there.
Don't take it that way.
No one will say you're not coming
because of taboo.
My mother understands.
The funeral is day after tomorrow.
Yes, the day after tomorrow. Bye.
Condolences to you and your family.
Mother, the MP is talking to you.
See, the MP is not afraid of taboo.
Maybe there's an election this year.
Why did you dress like this?
Who is not allowing it? The Government?
Rest in peace.
I will not be a bother anymore.
- No need.
- Take it.
- No need.
- Take it.
- I said no need.
- Trying to be naggier than me?
I'm a faggot, you know.
Whose father has seen you in a dress?
Me.
- Really?
- Really.
I'm not talking about a sugar daddy.
Whose father has seen you in dress
and your dad praised you,
"You are so beautiful."
No.
Of course not, right? You know why?
- Why?
- Because your daddies are straight.
If not, why will they fuck your mother
and give birth to you?
And
Who was beaten by your father?
Me.
My butt is so firm now.
Mother, did you forget
to turn off the tap?
The tap is still running.
I wanted to make coffee for your dad,
filled the water and forgot.
Thank you for helping me turn it off.
Jiaqiang, go downstairs, wake your father.
Don't let him sleep all day.
He gets dizzy after too much napping.
Once I am done with the coffee,
take it down for him.
Do you think your mother is okay?
We'll need to care for her.
How can you,
with your frequent trips to Bangkok?
You forgot to turn off the gas stove.
I forgot?
Do you know it's very dangerous?
Okay.
Let's discuss again.
He wants me to go back
to take care of Mother.
I wonder how much
that old shop house is worth.
Why are you back?
For the family inheritance.
Mother, I need to travel for work,
so I asked him to move back.
Move back for?
He'll be at home
when I'm working in the day,
and I'm at home
when he's working at night.
We can take turns.
Take turns to?
To take care of you. Gosh!
Why do you need to take care of me?
Leave quickly.
Don't let your father see,
he'll beat you to death.
What are you talking about?
Are you here
to drive your father to his grave?
He's dead already.
- Why did you curse him?
- Are you nuts?
Why did you curse your father?
Why did you curse your father?
- Why did you curse your father?
- Mother, Father is dead.
He's really dead. He's dead.
Did you forget?
He's dead?
Take a look.
All prices are increasing.
I went to the market
and bought some vegetables.
- It's very expensive.
- Yes.
I went to the market yesterday.
Just two types of vegetables
and so expensive.
The price keeps going up. Yes.
Do you know that guy
The report from the hospital is back.
Your mother has dementia
and needs medication to control it.
And
She will start losing her memories.
Will she recover?
She will eventually forget
the way back home.
Hey, fam, anyone knows
how one gets dementia?
Spencer69:
They will get it when they are old
My mother is not fat, okay?
So vain, drink and smoke so much.
SparkyDolores: Keep them company.
Looking forward to your jokes!
It's not funny. Mind your jokes.
I'm tired.
Are you done thinking?
Oh, my God!
Where is your father? Where did he go?
He was talking to me,
and then he left
when you switched on the lights.
I turned off the lights.
Is Father back? Tell me.
How to see when it's so dark?
The lights are on, can you see?
I told you that he left already.
What time is it? Go and sleep.
I'm hungry. I want frog porridge.
It's so late and you want to eat?
I'd cook whatever you wanted
when you were young.
Now I ask you to take me out for food.
Is that so difficult?
When I was young
You still remember
what I loved to eat when I was young?
Dried radish omelette.
The dried radish must not be too salty.
I need to rinse it
and fry only after adding sugar.
You were so picky.
It was hard raising you, you know?
It's here.
Auntie, tuck in.
- You are all so pretty.
- Thank you.
Glad y'all are eating supper at Geylang.
Not only does Geylang have frog porridge,
it has other stuff too.
Use glutinous rice chicken
to stuff your mouth.
My mouth can only be stuffed
with Taiwanese sausage.
I like Taiwanese sausage too.
Mother, only I can have Taiwanese sausage.
- Why only you can eat? I can eat too.
- Just eat your porridge.
Do y'all want boyfriends?
No, they have a lot already. Get in line.
Smelly faggots.
Our lady
I mean our brother
knows how to deal with these.
Since he was young, he has a foul mouth.
What do you mean?
I got first prize in school every year
for public speaking, okay?
Is it true, Auntie?
That he was a smart kid?
But the school didn't like him.
Eventually, he got kicked out.
- Why did you get kicked out?
- Because I was too pretty.
Just eat.
Mother is missing.
- I brought mother out for supper.
- You should have left me a message.
I'm going to the airport.
Can you handle her?
I'll bring her home.
Mother, I placed one of these here
and one more upstairs.
This timetable will let you know
what time to wake up,
brush your teeth, wash your face,
what time is breakfast, lunch and dinner,
what time to take your medications.
This is very important.
What time for you to go to the toilet too.
Our contact numbers are below.
If you don't have enough money
for marketing, you can call us.
Better not call me.
You call Jiaqiang, he's richer.
Did you steal my money?
What?
You stole money again.
Why would I steal your money?
I'm giving you money.
You didn't?
- Where is my money?
- How would I know?
How old are you already?
Why are you stealing again,
just like when you were a child?
Do you want a beating?
Your father will beat you to death
if he finds out.
I didn't steal money when I was young
and I won't steal now.
Do you know how much I earn?
Why would I care about your petty cash?
You're not going to admit it?
Okay, I will call the police to catch you.
Just call. You're nuts.
You better leave.
If your father sees this,
he'll beat you to death.
Father's dead already.
Don't beat him.
Don't beat him. It's my fault.
I did not bring him up well.
No, please don't beat him.
Don't beat him. Jiahao, run quickly.
No, no. Please, go away.
Don't beat him. It's my fault.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Go away.
It's been so many years,
she still thinks I stole her money.
Who are you talking about? Your mom?
Who else? Why the fuck did I call you?
No worries.
Do you need me to come over?
No need.
You do your work, okay?
Girl.
Go away. Jiahao is not here.
There are no bad people outside.
Jiahao is not here.
Jiahao is not here.
- What are you doing inside? Come out.
- You're back.
- Come in quickly.
- Come out.
- Come in and hide.
- Okay.
Quickly come in and hide.
Quickly come in and hide.
- Mother, did you call the police?
- Not me, your father.
He said you stole the money
so he called the police.
I was waiting for you
so we can hide together.
Quickly come in.
He will beat you to death if he sees you.
Mother, I really didn't steal any money.
The police told me
they caught the real thief.
We got the money back too.
Really?
Father is drinking coffee.
He said everything is fine.
He will not beat me.
- He won't?
- He won't.
You don't believe me?
You can ask the police.
You caught the thief already, right?
We got back the money too, right?
Yes, Auntie. We caught the real thief.
- Then you won't arrest Jiahao?
- We won't.
- Really won't arrest him?
- We won't.
Come, Auntie, let's come out of there.
Let's talk outside.
- Please don't arrest him.
- I won't.
- Is your father outside?
- Yes.
It's important
to take your medications on time.
And your timetable
is very important, okay?
You need people to take care of you now.
Don't be stubborn, all right?
Dr. Lim
How will I end up?
Let's exercise.
All done.
- Are you monitoring me?
- I'm letting you monitor me.
You can see if I stole your money.
My photo is here,
and Jiaqiang's photo too,
so you will remember.
Take photos of the things
you're afraid you might forget, okay?
Mother, I change the stove
to an electrical one.
Here is the power switch.
Will you remember?
- Yes.
- Take a video with your phone.
There's water and no water.
There's water and no water.
This is to turn it on.
Where is this at?
Power on.
- Where?
- Power on.
She is Ah Zhu.
She wants to take photos of you all
so she won't forget.
Mother, have you eaten?
- Huh?
- Check your alarm.
Dementia patients sometimes suspect people
of stealing their money.
All these are delusions.
As a caretaker, you have to learn
what is real and what is fake.
Who stole my money?
Who stole my money?
Why is my money missing?
Why is the box empty?
There's no more money.
Mother don't panic. We have CCTV.
Let's see who stole your money, okay?
Come on. Play.
See properly.
Is anyone there? Anyone?
No one, right?
- Is there anyone?
- No one.
Nobody.
Is there anyone? Nobody stole your money.
Mother, your money is here.
Nobody took it.
It's there.
As long as it's not missing.
Male, then female,
male, then female, male, then female.
So very convenient.
It is very hard for faggots
to earn a living in Singapore.
I'm really very tired.
SparkyDolores:
It must be tough on you!
LimJack:
You're taking care of a dementia patient.
You need to be taken care of too.
What do you mean, I'm weak?
You try taking care of a dementia patient.
Don't come and be a keyboard warrior.
I have to check
what time she eats every day,
takes her medication, poops, pees,
sleeps, and make sure she's still alive.
Don't say already.
SparkyDolores:
So how's your mother now?
Getting harder to please.
She makes no sense at all.
I explain to her when she's wrong,
but she always thinks it's my fault.
Not once is it her mistake.
My gosh. I'm going crazy.
JoshuaC:
Your mummy didn't mean it.
LimJack: By taking care of her,
you're very filial already.
Be filial to her?
It's the hardest task on earth.
LimJack:
Don't fight with her.
Just let her be,
that's being filial already.
Don't be so hard on yourself, okay?
Mother, are you nuts?
Why are you holding a knife?
- Who are you?
- I'm Jiahao.
You're here to steal my money?
Mother, I am Jiahao.
Jiahao is a guy not a woman.
You're lying. I'm calling the police.
I'm your daughter.
You have dementia. Do you remember?
Come with me. Let me explain.
Look here. There are three names here.
The one in the middle
is your son, Jiaqiang.
He's in Bangkok.
The one on top is me, Jiahao.
The one below is Grace.
She is your future daughter-in-law.
She will treat you badly in the future.
Can you remember?
If you don't believe me, check your phone.
Oh, gosh, Mother. Put down the knife.
You told us to put our photos
in your phone so you won't forget.
Remember?
This is your son, Jiaqiang.
And this is me.
Your daughter.
Yes.
Yuehao?
Huh?
Yes, that's me.
I'm so quick-witted.
Who knew I can play with dementia
this way?
Now I can reconstruct her memories
willy nilly.
Who stole lipstick when you were young?
Who?
And now?
It's a little smudged over here.
I take her out shopping.
- This is pretty.
- Take a photo.
- The one at the back is pretty.
- Take a photo.
What about me? Am I pretty?
- Pretty.
- Take a photo.
Two for $10.
Pretty.
Smelly faggot.
Manners, Mother!
There's more.
I told her I wanted to cosplay Chang-e
when I was young,
she asked me to play Wu Gang instead.
But now?
$4.
Prosperity to you.
Auntie, your bento.
Rude.
If that neighbor is not happy,
ask her to report it to the police.
Remember, handsome MP.
Mother, he says you are very brave.
You are the blue one
and the rest is all of us.
- D, is my mother beautiful?
- Yes, Auntie is so beautiful.
Come sit here. Sit carefully.
Thanks, D.
No problem.
It's been a long time
since we took a photo together.
Is it?
Is the new year coming?
Yes, new year is coming.
Mother, what are you doing?
Mother, don't touch,
these are very expensive.
Jiahao, sit down and take a photo.
- Huh?
- Sit down.
Take photo.
Look here.
Look at the lens.
One, two, three.
One more.
Look to my left.
That's right.
One, two, three.
Beautiful.
One more time.
Come here. Let's take a photo together.
Let David do it.
Auntie, you're so good at this.
When I was young,
my family ran a photo studio.
Really?
Next time, when Auntie is free,
please share your work with me.
It's all burned.
What's all burned?
It's all burned.
- It's all burned.
- Mother.
It's all burned.
All the photos are burned.
Mother, calm down.
It's all burned.
Mother, calm down.
Mother.
- Mother, calm down.
- It's all burned.
Mother. Nothing is burned.
Nothing is burned.
It's all right. No one's blaming you.
- No one is blaming you.
- I'm sorry, it is all my fault.
It is all burned, it is my fault.
Mother, do you remember?
The new year is coming.
The new year is coming.
We're going home for reunion dinner.
I'm still waiting for your red packet.
- The new year?
- Yes.
- Go home.
- Go home.
Let's go home and have reunion dinner.
- Reunion dinner.
- Yes.
- Let's go home.
- Let's go home.
Let's go home.
Let's go home.
I'm sorry.
Cheers!
Wishing the Empress Dowager
the best spirit and the best of health.
Thank you. Happy new year.
I will give you all red packets.
Mother, no need to give them,
they're all married.
Yes. I have many husbands.
- Slut.
- Really?
What about him?
Do I need to give him a red packet?
Yes. He hasn't married your daughter yet.
- He's Jiahao's boyfriend?
- Yes.
You're Jiahao's boyfriend?
What's your name?
David.
David.
You're Jiahao's boyfriend?
Yes, Mother.
He helped us take photos this morning.
Then I will need to take your photo.
I have to remember you.
No need.
- Smile.
- Smile.
- I will give you a red packet.
- Sister-in-law.
Oh, gosh.
Sister-in-law, I'm here
to move the massage chair back.
Who are you?
Who are you looking for?
I am Ah Tin.
It's like this.
When Big Brother was around,
I lent the massage chair to him
for his therapy.
And now that he is
So I'm here to move it back.
The massage chair
Did we borrow it from you?
Yes. I already told Jiaqiang
that I will come move it.
Thank you, Second Aunt.
You're so generous.
You
Jiahao?
- Brother Jiahao.
- Call me sister.
- Don't call.
- Yes, a bitch shouldn't bark.
Jiaqiang, you're back at the right time.
This house and the inheritance.
You'd better keep an eye on them.
- Are we still moving?
- Of course.
I will call the police if you dare.
Jiaqiang.
Fortunately I'm not staying long.
Since you're staying here,
you better be careful not to get AIDS.
It's best you get AIDS!
- You cunt!
- You, you, you
What about me?
- How dare you scold me?
- Why not?
- I'm older than you.
- What reasoning is that?
You think you're better
just because you're older?
You can speak however you want?
I'm older than you.
It's just one massage chair.
What's the big deal? I don't want it.
You come to my house
and bully my daughter.
You better say sorry to Jiahao.
Say sorry to her right now. Say sorry.
Jiaqiang, you tell her.
I will not say sorry to him.
Auntie, it's okay.
Do you remember what you told me just now?
You said you hated this massage chair
so much.
- Did I?
- Yes, you did.
You said it when we were having hotpot.
Let's move it away, okay?
Okay. Yes, move it now.
- Move.
- Come, let's move it.
Should have done so earlier. Excuse me.
You cunt.
Jiahao
Sister, bye-bye.
Good kid. Bye-bye.
Bye-bye.
Someone bullied your sister.
Why didn't you help her?
- You're such a useless brother.
- Huh?
You're such a useless brother. Useless.
You are really useless.
Auntie?
You said you wanted
to give me a red packet?
Yes. I will give it to you now.
Hey, dude. I'm your sister now.
- Prosperity to you and your family.
- Let's eat.
Have you called the police?
You irritating tranny.
Mother, come eat breakfast.
Playing hide and seek?
Not here.
Where is Mother?
How would I know?
What do you know exactly?
Hey, dude. Mother.
- Mother.
- Oh, no!
You help her.
Her head.
Be careful.
Gosh!
You scared the shit out of us, Mother.
- Mother, are you okay?
- Painful.
- Where are you in pain?
- Very painful.
- We'll take you to the doctor.
- Let's go to the doctor.
Auntie, what were you doing in the toilet?
I was searching for something.
Oh, gosh, Mother.
What is there to look for in the toilet
other than shit?
The toilet was slippery
and I fell down,
hit my mouth, it's very painful.
Don't worry, it's okay now.
Jiaqiang.
Take care of your mother.
I can't find it.
Mother, what are you looking for?
Don't be sorry. I'm sorry to you, okay?
Oh, no! I cannot find it.
What exactly are you looking for?
I'm looking for something.
Whatever it is,
I can help you look for it. Okay?
I want to go find it.
- Where to look for it?
- In the toilet.
- Which toilet?
- The toilet in Choa Chu Kang.
Choa Chu Kang?
Okay, I'll go with you to find it.
I think it's best that
we send her to a nursing home.
I've checked out a few places.
These ones have similar rates.
Then I feel that
This one's location and follow up services
are the most cost efficient.
Are you doing sales?
How long have you prepared this for?
I can't do it for sure.
Is she your wife?
Aren't you afraid
you'll be struck by lightning?
What problem?
So you think throwing money
at someone else will solve the problem?
- Hello, my dick!
- What right do you have to yell and shout?
Huh?
I don't even want to ask why you're back.
That's enough.
What the fuck are you filming?
Can you not be so loud?
Fuck you.
If I'm not loud, who can hear me?
Aren't you embarrassed?
So you know how to feel embarrassed?
Okay. Let me ask you.
Do you want to take care of Mother?
If you can't, I'll do it.
We will give you the house.
Cutting a deal now?
You're not afraid your kid
will be born without an ass?
I don't want to see him.
I don't want to see him.
You make coffee for him.
- Tell him not to bother me.
- Okay, Mother, I'll make coffee.
Why don't you just close your eyes?
You won't see him anymore.
Bring her to her room, please.
- I don't want to see him.
- Be careful, Mother.
Ask him not to bother me.
- I'll take you to your room.
- I don't want to see him.
Be careful, Mother.
The nurse said that she needs
to have her medication after meals.
And make sure she goes to the toilet.
Got it.
I send her off.
Drink your coffee, Grandpa.
Jiahao, look at me.
Look here, you're so pretty.
One more shot.
What are you doing?
Why did you dress him up again?
I'll stop now.
Why does he wear dresses when he's a boy?
- I'll stop.
- You deserve a beating.
Stop! It's all my fault.
- Don't you dare wear it.
- It's all my fault.
Don't beat him, it's all my fault.
Jiahao, quickly, go hide.
Hide in the closet.
Run fast. Hide in the closet. Quickly!
Oh, gosh.
Mother shat in her pants?
Didn't the hospital gave her a diaper?
Did you check?
Damn it, did you check?
How can a son look at his mother's butt?
I thought you're the daughter.
Fuck you.
Auntie, I want to help you
check something.
Lie straight.
- She has rashes.
- Huh?
What are you all doing?
We're treating your buttocks.
Why do you need to treat my buttocks?
Because your buttocks is sick.
- Do buttocks get sick?
- Yes.
Sorry, Mother.
We forgot to change your diaper.
Now your buttocks is another color.
- What color?
- Huh?
I like purple.
Huh?
You like purple?
Purple is a nice color.
Is that so?
Wow! You're so pretty.
Purple is really pretty.
Auntie, look! There's an airplane.
Last time, I flew for SQ as a steward.
So deadpan.
So many ships.
Feels so good.
I want to go for a swim.
Are you nuts?
Who wants to swim with you?
Aren't you tired of being with me?
No.
With my situation, don't you think
it's a waste of time?
Depends on how you define "wasting time."
No matter how difficult it is,
how unhappy,
the one you can't leave is always home.
Don't stress yourself out.
The longer I'm with you,
the more memories I have.
It's not a waste.
Then why don't you ever ask
if I want to go to Taiwan with you?
When are you two getting married?
I'll dress up as a bride tonight.
Stop, stop, stop.
Auntie, don't disrupt the performance.
Mother, why did you stop us?
He is the groom, not him.
We're just performing.
David, you go up. You're the groom.
Both of you quickly get married.
The real bridegroom is over there.
A wedding please.
Wedding! Wedding! Wedding!
Shut up.
- We can't just get married.
- Why not?
Because of the law.
Government doesn't allow.
Else we'd have gotten married long ago.
Government doesn't allow. Mother allows.
Come on.
Come up.
Government doesn't allow.
Mother allows.
Hello, fam. I'm very happy today.
Let's have a Q&A session.
Let's start.
Thank you, Melon.
Spencer69: Why are you so thin?
Spencer, I'm so thin
because I have discipline.
I'm really very happy.
Thanks for caring, none of your business.
PasirReese, you're such a busybody.
Don't you worry.
And my mother is still around.
I won't risk any operations, get it?
Don't be so sensitive. Just ask me.
Do you remember me?
You look familiar.
It's okay.
I'm Dr. Lim.
Dr. Lim.
Let me take a photo.
If not, I will forget you.
Dr. Lim.
- Did you take your medications?
- Huh?
Did I?
- Yes.
- Yes, I did.
That's good.
Go wait outside for your medications.
Okay.
Jiahao.
You need to be mentally prepared
I suggest that since
she's still not forgotten everything,
write down some notes.
Best to state some things clearly.
I want to go to Choa Chu Kang.
I want to go to Choa Chu Kang now.
I want to go to Choa Chu Kang.
- Mother, what's going on?
- I want to go to Choa Chu Kang.
We used to live there.
- Why do you want to go?
- I want to find something.
It's very late.
We'll get it tomorrow, okay?
No, cannot. It might be thrown away.
I want to go now.
Take me to Choa Chu Kang.
Let's go back now. Okay?
We go now.
Stop. Stop the car.
Stop, stop, stop. Stop the car.
Stop the car, stop the car.
Mother, where are you going?
It's not here.
I remember this place.
I want to go scold that evil principal.
If not for him kicking you out of school,
you'd be a lawyer now.
Who wants to be a lawyer? Mother.
Mother, this is not Choa Chu Kang.
Evil principal.
Sir, you're not dead yet?
Lee Kay Ho.
What does he mean by that?
He's been fired already.
So, you were his teacher.
Let me ask you.
It was just a hug from behind.
Good friends are not allowed to hug?
Will someone die because of this?
Why was he expelled?
That time, many teachers also felt
that the punishment was too harsh.
I don't care what it is now.
Do you realize how much
this affected his whole life?
I must go and scold the principal.
He's been fired already.
Who do you want to go looking for?
- Let it go.
- Let it go. Sit down.
You did stand up for me,
just 20 years late.
I will take it as bad luck, okay?
Jiahao?
Yes?
Why didn't the gas kill me?
Isn't it better if I'm dead?
Don't have to trouble anyone.
"Change comes faster than your plans."
We got a resale HDB flat opposite.
We planned to visit weekly
after getting married.
But now Father is gone,
Mother has become like this.
I don't care about the house
or inheritance.
You think I take care of Mother
because I'm free?
What about you? You just keep avoiding.
Who stole my money?
Why is my money missing?
Why is my box empty?
Mother, stop panicking.
Let's check the CCTV.
I don't want to look at the CCTV.
You stole my money, return it.
Let's look at the CCTV
and see who stole your money.
- I don't want to look at the CCTV.
- Watch properly.
Return my money.
Check the CCTV
and see who took your money.
I stole the money.
It's not you.
It was Jiahao who stole the money.
I stole it.
Every time the money went missing,
it was me.
Why did you do that?
Do you know,
when Jiahao was young,
he was beaten up badly by your father?
Why did you love him more
when we were kids?
I'm going to be a father.
Don't be afraid.
What are you doing here?
Your father
heard you coming
and he left.
Really?
He said
he's too ashamed to face you.
You know he's dead, right?
I know.
He's dead.
Therefore,
he didn't have the chance
to apologize to you.
He wanted me to
help him say sorry to you.
Can you forgive him?
I forgive you.
Wake up.
Wakey, wakey.
Let's go to the wet market.
Let's go buy vegetables.
Let's go.
Wait. I haven't put on my makeup.
I can't let you be prettier than me.
Hello, I'm Dmummy.
I'm now at the wet market
to buy vegetables.
I'm getting some cabbage.
I always buy from the stall here.
The boss is very nice.
He always gives me a discount.
- Boss.
- Yes.
How much is the cabbage?
You're my VIP,
everything is discounted for you.
- Give me one of this.
- Okay, one of this?
Your mummy looks great.
- I want corn.
- Okay.
These long beans are nice too.
Let me choose some.
Jiahao, go buy some assorted tofu.
I'm choosing long beans
to fry with dried shrimps.
Boss.
Take a look at the long beans,
so nice, so fat.
Thank you, Uncle, please keep the change.
- Boss, where's my mother?
- She went to buy fruits.
- Where's the fruit stall?
- It's Ah Zhu's stall.
- Ah Zhu? Did you see my mother, Juhua?
- No.
Mother, you better be home.
Mother. Fuck! Where are you?
Where did you go?
And then she buy vegetables
and go missing.
Share the live stream.
Mother, where did you go?
Why did you only call back now?
Mother kept saying she wants
to return to the old house.
Why don't I meet you at Choa Chu Kang?
Okay, never mind.
We look around downstairs.
No trace of her.
This is the woman. Remember?
Your mother is in there.
Mother, what are you doing here?
Do you know we are all very worried?
Open it.
Huh?
Open it.
Jiaqiang's birth certificate.
And this birth certificate belongs to?
My daughter.
Her name was Yuehao.
And this adoption paper
When I first brought Jiahao home,
he was so cute.
I let Jiahao wear Yuehao's clothes.
When he wore the dresses,
he was so pretty.
I took many photos then.
But in the end,
they were all burned.
Your father blamed me.
He said how Jiahao turned out
is because of me.
Jiahao.
I'm sorry, Jiahao.
I'm so sorry.
Jiahao.
I'm sorry, Jiahao.
I'm so sorry.
Smoke?
Let me make you some noodles.
It will be okay. Have some noodles.
You'll feel better. Let's go.
Okay.
No worries. I will accompany you.
Have some noodles.
- You want some water?
- No, thanks.
- Please sit.
- Okay.
Where should I start?
Everybody called me
"the faggot's brother."
You know best how Mother treats you.
I just want to say,
it doesn't matter
if we're not biologically related.
I didn't know enough when I was young,
and sabotaged you many times.
When I grew up and knew right from wrong,
I still didn't have the courage
to apologize.
Jiahao.
I am very clear in my mind now.
I know it.
Therefore,
I better tell you fast.
If not, I'm afraid
I'm afraid I will lose my mind again.
I want to apologize to you.
If you can't forgive me,
I understand.
I want to thank you.
Thank you for taking me out.
Shopping.
Eating ice-cream.
I haven't been so happy in a long time.
I want to thank you for dolling me up.
I really like that.
Really love it.
I'm not sure if you noticed.
When you're happy and you smile,
you're so beautiful.
I'm very happy to see you smile.
So you must smile more, okay?
The most important thing is
you must take care of yourself. Okay?
Mother wanted to ask,
when are you coming home?
Don't worry.
He'll be home soon.
All the best.
- Mother.
- Auntie.
Get up.
I'm so scared.
I'm so scared I'll forget who you are.
One, two, three.
Very nice.
Come to the center.
Auntie, what do you need?
What's up?
Take a photo together.
No need.
Take a photo together.
Okay.
- Thanks for helping out.
- All right.
Okay, look here. One, two, three.
Mother, Baby Bobby is looking for you.
Let Grandma carry him.
Photo time.
Bobby, take a photo.
Mother, photo time.
One, two, three.
One, two, three. Very beautiful.
Mother, here's your grandson.
Will Baby Bobby remember me?
Auntie, look this way.
Now he will remember.
- Jiahao.
- Yes?
Do you want to look for your real parents?
I've found you, haven't I?
Let's go home, okay?
Okay.
Let's go home.
Are folks like me born to be laughed at?
Is that really so?
You know what I'm gonna do?
I have a mother too.
