Gohan (2026) Movie Script
Don't wolf it down, Hiro.
You'll choke!
Let's go.
Statistically, 50.8% of Japanese over 60
remain in the workforce.
So why do I have to retire?
Hiro, we've extended
your contract many times.
Please just accept
your retirement gracefully.
Hiro,
on behalf of the company,
thank you
for all your years of serv--
Hiro, please.
I can't let you work here anymore.
My neck was stiff for six months,
and I still came back to work.
Also, I've worked here
my whole life.
You gave me this award.
-Doesn't it prick your conscience at all?
-Exactly.
Look, look!
I've worked on that model
since the prototype.
Prototype.
Dream on if you think I'll retire,
Tat.
Here.
Yikes. Rough day?
Put them in here.
Gosh.
There we go.
Gosh
All right.
How did you end up in here?
Nice to meet you.
What's up?
Are you hungry?
Cheers!
So you're the new engineer?
Here.
Your employee card.
Do your best.
Listen, newbie.
You must know every part inside out.
Hiro.
Be quiet, okay?
Understand?
Hang in there.
-Hello, Hiro!
-Morning.
It's cold today.
Going fishing after work?
Take me with you.
Little guy.
Come on out.
I can't look after you.
Go on now.
Stay here.
Pets aren't allowed at my condo.
Don't run into the street.
It's dangerous.
I have to go.
Bye.
Hey!
Paitoon. Why did you get out of the car?
We're already late. Let's go!
Wait! HR sent me to pick up the new hire.
Hello. You're Paitoon, right?
His Thai is excellent!
Hello, I'm Sawada.
I've been appointed Chief Engineer.
Looking forward to learning from you.
I'm the new Chief Engineer.
I'm still the Chief Engineer!
The only one in the company.
I haven't retired!
Let's go.
New kid, this is the drum test rule.
Keep your eyes sharp,
ears open,
and snout on the scent.
Feel the vibration.
Use all of your five senses.
That's the pursuit of perfection.
This one's good to go.
Back to work, everyone.
President!
I lost a round of rock-paper-scissors
to Hiro.
The winner gets to test the car first.
As of today,
you are an outsider.
You'll need permission
to enter the premises
from here on.
Do you need a hand?
No.
Shall I call a tuk-tuk for you?
Little guy.
Want to go on a trip?
The other day, I was checking blueprints,
leading a team,
going to lunch and meetings.
Today, I'm suddenly an outsider.
How absurd.
I'm healthier than ever.
Without my work, what do I have left?
You're adorable.
I got one!
Little guy!
Little guy.
Don't be scared.
Hang on.
So cute!
It tastes good, you know?
You want some?
Your fur is white,
just like lice.
Wait. No.
White, lice, rice.
Head lice.
The color white.
Eat rice.
Your fur is white,
just like rice!
Right?
I shall call you
Gohan.
Sound good? Gohan.
All right.
Gohan.
Hey! You scared me!
Happy New Year!
It's Hana.
I can't believe how fast you've grown.
So
how's your contract?
Did they extend it?
I take your silence as a no then.
Don't you want to move back here?
We could live nearby.
I'll find a place for you.
You can take care
of this little rice ball.
Hana
Let's celebrate
New Year's together, Gohan.
Hurry up, will you?
Oh, look. It's midnight.
Can't sell booze anymore.
Happy New Year.
-Happy New Year.
-Happy New Year.
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan.
It's not him.
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan.
Sorry.
Come here.
This way.
Don't be afraid.
Come here.
You're okay now.
Come. All right.
I'm glad you're okay.
I'm so glad.
You're safe now. Don't worry.
Just wait here, okay?
Gohan.
Hey.
Goodness.
Come here.
You can't do that.
Here, chew on this first.
That's it. Good boy.
That's too bad.
You will get used to it.
I sympathize with you.
I thought I could hold it in at first too.
I have a lot of adult diapers in stock.
Do you want to try one?
Slips on just like underwear.
No, thank you.
I mean, sounds good!
Teach me how to use it sometime, okay?
I have a pack right here.
I'll bring it over.
Just a second.
You don't have to do that!
Just throw it here.
I'm ready.
Wow!
Nice catch!
What was that noise?
Gohan.
Nice job.
Wow!
Hitching a ride to go fishing?
What?
If you get kicked out,
I won't drive you home.
Jeez!
-Can I get in?
-Hell yes!
What are you waiting for?
Son of a
Dog!
Whose dog did you steal?
So cute!
Is that your dog, Hiro?
Shiro.
His name is Gohan.
Do not call him willy-nilly, please.
And he's not my dog.
I'm only his temporary home.
Gohan.
Cute!
Gohan.
Gohan.
There.
-So cute.
-Gohan.
Hey.
Hiro!
What crazy scheme are you up to now?
Didn't I tell you?
You're not allowed in here.
Tat, I've decided to go back to Japan.
I'm willing to retire.
Really?
I'll look for a new job in Japan
once I find a home for this puppy.
Thai people are kind.
I'm sure I can find a new owner for Gohan.
Give me two weeks.
Please.
-Please!
-Please!
What's wrong with you all?
Everyone wants a dog now?
Yes!
Isn't he adorable, sir?
Cute, right?
I give you one week.
-Really?
-One week.
Thank you, Tat.
-Thank you, Tat!
-Thank you, Tat!
-So cute!
-Gohan.
Excuse me.
Is this the place for adoption interviews?
Please. Sit down.
I've dreamed of having a dog
ever since I was a child.
There used to be a stray in the alley
where I lived.
It was so cute and loyal.
Will you be keeping Gohan inside
or outside the house?
In the alley, like when I was a kid.
Let me take that into consideration.
Thank you.
How's that any different
from staying at 7-Eleven?
Poor little guy.
GOHAN'S ADOPTION INTERVIEWEE FORM
I want to keep him indoors.
He's safer inside the house.
I'll keep him safe in an enclosed space.
Will anyone be at home during the day?
No.
I live alone.
I'll hurry back to him once I clock out.
Let me consider it.
Thank you.
Leaving the dog alone
in the house all day?
Gohan would be miserable.
A dog in my neighborhood
was just poisoned.
I should probably get a new guard dog.
Gohan probably loves dragging stuff.
Who the hell let you in here?
May I ask what makes you, Ms. Sarocha,
a good fit for Gohan?
Dear Hiro,
respectfully,
I've always been a dog lover.
My house is fully fenced,
with a lawn in front.
My garden is lush and naturally shaded
Goodness. He's so cute! I can't!
I really want him!
I promise. If I get to take care of him
He moved!
Hey there, sweetie!
Hold still!
Oh, my god! So cute!
-Look here!
-Stop!
-What?
-He's going blind.
-Blind?
-Please leave.
I'll get him some medicine.
My neighborhood vet is
No, no.
Has anyone adopted him yet?
We live in the same condo, Sawada.
They don't allow pets there.
I'm not the one adopting him.
It's
my girlfriend.
Since Mali died,
I haven't been able to get another dog.
It took me years to get over Mali.
But when Sawada showed me
pictures of Gohan,
I felt like
it was destiny.
The nose, in particular.
Apart from Mali,
I've never seen a dog with this nose.
So Sawada and Meow,
how did you two meet?
-When Meow studied in Japan
-When I studied in Japan
After I graduated,
I came back to Si Racha.
For this relationship to work,
Sawada had no choice.
So I asked him to find work in Thailand.
Gohan!
Are you a dogzilla?
Quit raiding people's stuff!
Get him out of there!
He's so naughty. I'm sorry.
It's fine.
A naughty pup is a real pup.
She's the patron saint of puppies.
Good boy!
You got it, Gohan.
Give him a treat right away,
so he'll get used to it.
That's incredible.
She nailed it on the first try.
Here you go.
Are you planning to have kids?
We've already decided not to.
-Right?
-Yes.
Then
what if you two
break up?
Who will take care of Gohan?
Hey, that question's too personal.
It's okay.
In that case,
I will take care of Gohan.
If I decide to take care of him,
it's for life.
I wouldn't give Gohan to anyone else.
Hiro.
If you let Meow adopt Gohan,
I'll come in second around here.
But that's fine with me.
Last question.
What will Gohan's new name be?
Gohan is already a perfect name.
If you said Mali,
I would've changed my mind.
Wait
Let me consider it.
What?
Paitoon, let's go.
Go ahead.
It's obvious that you want to keep him.
I can only look after him temporarily.
I'm going back to Japan for work.
You're still thinking of work at this age?
Who cares about all this work nonsense?
I don't like
the phrase "who cares."
Sounds irresponsible.
What do you have to be responsible for?
Your wife is long gone.
Your son's grown up
and has his own family.
If I were retired like you,
I'd do nothing all day
except walk the dog.
Life's good!
I don't want to do nothing all day.
So why didn't you give them the dog?
What are you waiting for?
I have to consider it, just to be sure.
Consider, my ass!
I've known all along
that you want to keep him.
I got one!
Gohan!
What kind of fish do you want today?
Gohan.
Where did Gohan go, Paitoon?
I don't know.
-Gohan!
-Gohan!
Hold this!
-You don't care about the fish anymore?
-Gohan!
-Gohan!
-Gohan!
Gohan!
-Gohan!
-Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Hiro!
Don't jump
Too late.
Hiro!
Oh, man!
Hold on!
Hiro!
Gohan is here!
He's here!
What a relief!
He's here!
I have him!
Gohan.
Want to pee?
Do it here. Over here.
Here
Over here!
Paitoon.
Drive slowly.
Good morning.
I've
considered it.
Meow is going to take better care
of Gohan than I do.
Open it after I leave, please.
Thank you.
BEST EMPLOYER AND SERVICE AWARD 2010
To our company's living legend,
return home with happiness, Hiro.
Thank you.
Sawada,
I'll leave it to you.
The pursuit of perfection.
Don't make me fall in love
I'll get smitten, I'll fall too fast
Love's stuck deep in my heart
What can I do?
Try to pull it out, I just can't
Don't make me think you feel it
If you don't
If I get it wrong, I won't take the blame
If I hug you, what would you say?
Straight to the airport?
Hey, man.
You'll trip!
Paitoon, wait here.
I'll be quick.
Oh, for crying out loud.
The doorbell is right there.
Look at us, seriously.
No need.
That's enough already.
You're going to miss your flight.
Wait.
What's wrong?
What happened?
What is it?
Gohan, we'll dig later.
Let's go for a walk.
Come quick.
Gohan.
Good boy! Come here!
Let's go for a walk. Come.
No! Don't go that way.
This way.
Come this way.
Quick. Gohan!
Good boy. Let's go.
-Paitoon, let's go.
-Okay.
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Paitoon!
-What?
-Stop the car!
What?
-Stop the car!
-Gohan!
Gohan.
How did you know it was me?
Was it the sound of the car?
It was, wasn't it?
You heard this car
every morning, didn't you?
Meow.
Please forgive me.
I'm not here to take Gohan back.
I'll get going now.
Do you know that this past week,
whenever a car drove by our house,
Gohan would run to the window?
Really?
He waits for you every day.
It's destiny.
Gohan chose you.
What about your "work in Japan"?
Who cares, Paitoon?
Who cares!
Snoopy and Charlie.
There you go.
Looking sharp!
Hello, Dad.
How's your new house?
Gohan, wait up!
I like it. No more elevators.
I see.
And how's your new job going?
Well
It's pretty challenging.
There's still a lot for me to learn.
All right!
Today was fun, huh?
Time for bed.
Good night, Gohan.
Are you hungry?
Here.
Help me carry him.
Easy, buddy. It's okay.
Here.
Dog sedative.
To calm him down.
Quickly.
Do you understand Thai?
Yes.
One shot and it'll be over.
Push the plunger all the way.
KUNG'S DOG SHELTER,
DONATE TO SAVE A STRAY'S LIFE
Hello, it's Kung here,
giving you an update on Gohan.
As you know, Gohan's Japanese owner
passed away from COVID last week.
The rescue team was notified
of a COVID-related death.
The deceased was
a 70-year-old Japanese man.
His faithful dog, Gohan,
stayed by his side.
Think about it.
If a person gets COVID,
they will receive help.
DOG GUARDS OWNER
WHO PASSED AWAY FROM COVID
But no one dares to help the dog.
They don't want to risk getting exposed.
The rescue team contacted my shelter.
When I found Gohan,
he was lying very still in the dark.
I could tell that he was hungry
and sick.
His eyes were
He looked so depressed,
as if waiting for his owner to return.
But his owner is already gone.
Gohan, time to eat!
Gohan.
Welcome to your new home.
Moe Thee, her salary is five grand.
Her arms are smaller than a dog's legs.
She's got no paperwork too.
Can you talk to her?
Here.
Yes?
Five grand is not bad.
It's better than struggling in Myanmar.
Work for five to six months.
Save up for your permit,
then find other work.
Okay?
All right.
Okay then.
Wait.
There's one rule here.
No phones allowed.
Or should I call Moe Thee
to come pick you up?
Okay, sir.
Just use my phone
if there's anything urgent.
KUNG'S DOG SHELTER
Keep it.
Go in.
Your Burmese name is hard to pronounce.
Let's just call you Namcha.
Your job is
to feed the dogs food and water.
Take them out to do their business.
All 30 of them here.
Got it?
Feed them every other day.
We're in a pandemic.
Donations are thin.
Hold on.
Shit. All the cages are full.
Dum!
Easy there.
-Put him in there.
-Okay.
Sit down.
Come on.
Hi, guys. I have an update on Gohan.
He's still pretty weak right now
due to blood parasites.
If you would like to sponsor
Gohan's treatment,
please transfer the funds
to the shelter's account.
I'LL DONATE TO GOHAN EVERY MONTH.
MY DONATION TO GOHAN.
RECOVER SOON, GOHAN.
GET WELL SOON, GOHAN.
ROOTING FOR YOU, GOHAN.
I promise I'll do my best
to take care of Gohan.
I'm sorry.
If I'd known,
I wouldn't have helped capture you.
I'll be here by your side.
Time for bed.
Not for long now.
Quickly.
I've got enough savings,
so I'm leaving now.
This is all I can do for you guys.
Go as far as you can. Understand?
Stay and you'll end up like Dum.
This one.
MOBILE SHOP
It's fully charged, ready to use.
Let me check if the camera works.
Smile!
Gohan!
Why are you following me?
Go on!
Get out of here!
I'm going to look
for a new job in Bangkok.
I can't even manage myself.
How can I look after you?
Go look for your new home! Go on!
Go.
You're going to get me in trouble.
Hey.
If you want to come along,
stay still and be quiet.
Passengers going to Bangkok,
please board the bus at Platform One.
TO MOE THEE: TRANSFERRED.
COMING FOR MY PERMIT.
I'm on my way.
Yes, it's the same price we agreed on.
He's sitting right beside me.
I know the driver.
He made an exception.
We'll be arriving soon.
They're going to mate him with their hen.
Yes, around a hundred thousand.
Well, he's been through countless fights.
Don't be sad. Come on in first.
We can talk about it later.
Hell no!
Why is there a dog on the bus?
Help!
Gohan!
How are we going to make it to Bangkok?
I can't afford to hire a car.
You're unbelievable.
Just get lost.
Go.
Are you arguing with me?
Don't you dare.
Shall I dump you here?
Come here.
Sit down.
I could eat you up, you rascal!
Go that way.
Gohan, quickly!
Gohan?
That's clever.
Let's turn you into a golden retriever.
All done.
Ready to go?
Okay. Good boy!
Let's go.
GOHAN
This dog?
Yes, this white one!
She snuck it onto the bus.
I kicked them out along the way.
-Are you sure?
-Yes!
Damn it!
Moe Thee,
your worker is causing trouble again.
What did she do?
She took my fucking dog!
MOE THEE, 15 MISSED CALLS
What have you done?
Kung is about to rip my head off!
If I don't bring you back,
he'll report me for smuggling workers.
He wouldn't dare call the cops.
What do you mean?
Do you know what kind of person he is?
How he abuses all the dogs?
So you stole one and ran away with it?
I didn't steal!
He followed me.
You want to go to jail over a damn dog?
I'm in deep shit because of you!
Just give me my permit
if you don't want trouble.
Fine. I'll send you the location
for tomorrow.
You'll get your permit
and we're done here.
Gohan.
Why are you licking the fridge?
You really want those brownies?
Dogs can't have chocolate.
If you want it that badly,
should I just call you Brownie?
Oh?
You like this name?
Let's see.
Strawberry?
Cookie?
Muffin?
Brownie?
Okay.
From now on,
you'd better respond to "Brownie."
Brownie.
Such a good boy!
Back home in Myanmar,
there was a stray dog.
My family wouldn't let me keep it,
but I snuck out to play with it every day.
My mom told me
not to name it
or I'd start getting attached.
You're the first dog I'd ever named.
BROWNIE
Good night,
Brownie.
Brownie?
Brownie?
Brownie!
It sniffed around,
then jumped in and got comfy.
I'm really sorry!
Brownie, what are you doing here?
You're bothering his fish!
Where are you from?
I'm from Myawaddy.
I'm from Bago.
So where are you headed?
Want a ride with Jumbo to Bangkok?
Shall we go with them, Brownie?
MEET HERE AT 8 P.M.
-Thank you.
-Sure.
Let's go!
Come on.
No. Come here.
Look over there.
We'll come back to play next time, okay?
We have to go now.
Hi, there.
When Moe Thee heard "immigration,"
he spilled.
-Please!
-Come quickly!
Please let the dog go!
I can work for free!
Let the dog go? Are you insane?
This dog's been on TV.
He's worth more than you!
You're going to pay for it, bitch.
Come!
What are you going to do?
It fucking hurts!
Son of a bitch!
Namcha!
Brownie, quickly!
Stop!
Inside, quickly!
Good boy, Brownie.
You're so brave.
Thank you.
Ladies and gentlemen!
Get ready for the thrill of your life.
The most dangerous act of the night!
It's a dog!
Dog!
Brownie!
Brownie
It's okay.
Hey!
You!
Catch her!
She's a thief!
What did you steal?
Brownie!
Fuck!
You've got to be kidding me.
Move.
Hey! The dog!
Your dog went that way!
That way! Quick!
Out of the way!
Brownie!
-Sir! They went that way!
-Sir! That way!
-That way!
-This way?
Yes!
Brownie!
Brownie!
Brownie!
Brownie.
Kitty cat.
Have you seen a dog around here?
Can you please help me find him?
Brownie!
Brownie!
Why are you swimming here?
Brownie.
I thought I'd lost you!
Still got the nerve to call?
Can we talk nicely?
Please?
Just let us go.
I can let you go.
But not the dog.
Can you be kind to the dogs?
Little doggy.
Little doggy.
Handsome boy.
Kindness doesn't make money.
Do you know
how much money I make from him?
I'll give you one last chance.
Bring me Gohan.
I'll give you sixty grand and your permit.
Choose wisely.
It's your life or the dog's.
What's it going to be?
This one.
Thank you.
This bracelet
was given to me by my mom.
She said it would keep me safe.
I hope
that it will
keep you safe too, Brownie.
Actually, my name isn't Namcha.
It's Aye Shin.
Please remember my name.
And you
You'll be my Brownie forever.
Okay?
I got you a cake.
Sorry that I could only
bring you this far.
Hey!
Where's the fucking dog?
Far away from scums like you!
Shit.
Hey! Stop the train!
Wait!
Shit!
Fuck!
Is this what you want?
You think you've won by freeing the dog?
Are you stupid?
There are thousands of strays
in this country.
I can round them up, sedate them,
and make my living!
But for you?
You're done.
I'll call immigration
and have you deported.
Too late for that.
Found them.
Fine.
Let's see who they'll believe.
I'm not scared of you.
Wait!
Listen to me. Wait.
I have sixty grand.
Your permit too.
Please stop!
I'm sorry.
I won't do it again, okay?
Just don't post the clip online.
Dum.
Lucky.
Shabu.
Sugar.
Kaowpun.
Michael.
I know I can't rescue every dog
in this world.
But at least I've rescued them from you.
This is the best I can do.
Was it you who called us?
She said you hired illegal workers.
We'll talk at the station.
Do you have any other evidence?
No.
Are you stupid?
There are thousands of strays
in this country.
We can't do anything further.
And you still have to be deported.
BROWNIE
To whoever reads this letter
You've finally met this troublemaker.
He's a good dog
who deserves a good life.
A life that I can't give.
You may not love him.
But please don't hurt him.
Let him have a little space
to live in this world.
But if you love him
BROWNIE
It doesn't matter what his name was.
Just give him one last name
for the rest of his life.
You can do it. It's not that much.
I'm worried I won't finish in time.
Let's go, Pel.
Wait.
Take a photo of me with this dog.
Stop fooling around.
Gosh, you're so cute!
Polaroids are expensive, you know?
Why do you want a photo with the dog?
The dog is here to welcome us,
which means today will be a good day.
I will ace my interview exam.
It's for good luck.
Look over there.
PEL & JAIDEE 4EVERRR!
That's cringe, man!
No one is allowed to see this.
You got Pel in a photo with me.
If I get into university,
I'll play with you every day.
Okay?
Okay.
Pel.
Can you name him?
Whitey.
Oh, come on!
Can you be more creative?
Elsa.
Elsa?
Elsa!
Elsa?
Well, it's white,
so she's a snow princess.
What kind of princess has a ding dong?
Hima sounds better.
-Is it?
-Let's go. Everybody's gone.
See you around, Hima.
Welcome, Fine Arts freshmen!
Hop off the train and line up over here.
Follow your seniors.
Pel.
There's Hima.
HIMA
Hima!
Do you know your name yet?
I brought you some apples.
Helps with digestion.
Dig in.
-Jaidee, everybody's left already.
-Here.
-Quick!
-And some water.
Wait a second!
Since we're already feeding him every day,
shall we raise him at our rental house?
Shall we?
He doesn't even know his name.
Playing with him is enough.
He'll just be a burden.
-Let's go home.
-Let's go.
We do everything as a couple,
but you never want
to admit our relationship.
Why is it so hard for you?
I don't want to put a label on it.
Or should we just call it off?
So childish!
Pel!
Hima.
I've graduated.
I won't be around as often now.
I hope you'll meet kind people.
You're really going to leave?
Without a word?
I'm sorry, okay?
Jaidee!
Can we talk?
Jaidee!
-This camera right here.
-Thank you.
One, two, three.
One more. One, two, three.
Thank you.
Help me out.
Call your mom.
Hima!
-Hima
-Hima
Here!
Good boy.
Hima.
Good boy.
How's it going?
I've missed you.
How about a group photo?
-Okay.
-Scooch in!
-Ready?
-Look there.
-One
-The camera over there.
Wait!
Pel, join us.
The professor didn't let you graduate,
but I will.
Come on, man!
Squat in the front.
Ready, guys?
Get closer. Ready?
Three, two, one.
How's it going?
You're a flight attendant now?
Congratulations.
Pel.
You should move to the side, man.
Your hair is stealing our moment.
Okay. That's perfect, everyone!
Okay.
Jaidee.
Come on. Over here.
I realized I can't be without you.
I'm ready to make it official now.
I also realized
that my life is way better without you.
Please.
Can you just
leave me alone?
Okay, let's take the photo.
The sun is setting.
Come on, guys. Ready?
One, two, three!
Hima!
He only got a small stitch today.
But the bad news is
He may not live much longer.
There's nothing wrong with his leg,
but his kidneys are in poor condition.
He needs to be on a strict diet.
No human food whatsoever.
He needs constant saline shots
to dilute the waste from his blood.
So
How much time does he have left?
For him
Around three months.
Who is he living with?
Who's taking care of him?
He's with me.
I'm the only one who's still around.
Okay, so listen.
What you need to do
is give him saline shots
at least three days a week.
Be gentle.
He's probably ten years old now.
Take good care of him.
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
Thank you.
We'll handle the bill.
You two stay with Hima.
See you.
Give me the medicine.
I'll handle it.
It's a two-person job.
Didn't you see it?
What are you saying?
I mean
We can do it at the station together.
Wait here.
Look out for your mom.
Pel, what a life you're living.
All you do is sit around,
watching trains go by.
Since you've dropped out,
what are you doing now?
I'm waiting for Jaidee.
I'm guarding my dog! God, you're nosy!
Then where's your dog?
Hey.
Hima!
Hima!
What are the chances
of an old, partially blind dog
getting hit while crossing the road?
100% instant death.
Hima!
Are you trying to cross the road
or cross into the next life?
Eat up.
Turn it down a notch.
Do us all a favor.
I'm out.
Don't bother waiting.
Your mom isn't coming.
I'm picking up Hima
and moving back into the house.
It's best to take care of him there.
For his last three months,
I want to treat him well.
I didn't do enough before.
This is my only chance.
Excited to come home?
Don't rush.
Let me park.
Be patient.
Easy, boss.
Watch your step, old man!
It's okay. Let me take that.
All done.
Now you smell nice and clean!
Wow, thanks for that.
How about a reward after your shower?
You want some milk, Hima?
Dogs can't have dairy.
Didn't you know?
Who's a handsome boy?
HIMA
I drew that for him.
I listened to a lot of metal
while you were gone.
Can't really do slow songs.
They trigger the waterworks.
I needed something heavier.
Like I was back in the day.
-A sweet face, but--
-I don't like it.
Okay, ma'am.
HIMA
You won't feel a thing.
Stay still.
Got it.
Good boy.
I'm scheduled to fly almost every day.
I'll swap flights for these three months,
so I can help with Hima.
So which days are you busy?
Actually
My mom doesn't know that I've dropped out.
I told her I'm doing my master's,
so I could use the tuition money.
So you're free every day.
You do lunch.
I'll do breakfast and dinner.
I'll write down the feeding times for you.
Sounds good, Hima?
Almost done.
What a good boy.
It's a crisis.
You're in a hopeless situation.
The fact that she doesn't care
means that she feels nothing
for you anymore.
Let me tell you something.
My husband cheated on me three times.
Guess how I felt the third time.
Hatred?
I felt nothing.
You know, the opposite of love
isn't hate.
It's feeling nothing.
What if I treat Hima well
before he passes?
Will Jaidee see me differently?
That sounds fake as hell, man.
Everyone can see
that you're not a dog person.
And don't forget to pay me.
You've used up this month's credits.
Gosh, Pel.
You're unbelievable.
You can't even afford
your AI subscription.
How are you going
to pay my rent this month?
Well, help me think!
If she agrees to move back in with me,
I'll keep paying your rent.
Fine!
Look. Don't pretend to love dogs.
You just have to prove to her
that the dog loves you!
See you soon, buddy.
Be a good boy, okay?
I'll hurry back.
Take care of the house.
See you, Jaidee.
Got everything, right?
You want this?
What do you do?
Paw.
Good boy!
For you.
I'm the pack leader.
Remember that.
Jaidee.
Jaidee.
He just crashed in my room.
Take care of him.
Night.
Hima.
What's wrong?
Was it a nightmare?
It's okay.
Pel, do you think Jaidee's lost it?
Look at her.
She's working out. Let her be!
You good, bro?
Still jumpy, Scooby Doo?
Where's your Shaggy gone?
Can you not play horror games with Hima?
He gets nightmares.
You guys too.
If you're here just to mess with Hima,
don't come again.
Hima. Lunch.
Hima.
Come here.
Have your lunch with me.
Hima, lunch.
Jaidee.
I think we have a problem.
He's really attached to me.
I think he wants me to sleep in your room.
Maybe it's a good idea.
Shall we try it? Is there enough room?
He sure is attached.
I can sleep on the floor.
You're all done. Good boy.
Bang, bang! You're dead!
Awesome.
RIP, Hima.
Can you not joke about death with him?
You know he doesn't have much time.
I was just joking.
Are you mad?
I don't like it.
Pel!
Let me see.
Please wait 15 minutes to observe,
then you can go home.
Please don't hate him.
He didn't mean it.
I don't hate him.
He still bites hard. That's healthy.
You can hate me if you want.
Just don't feel nothing.
Let me hate you for now.
Bang!
You're dead.
Oh, that hurts!
Paw.
I did it in a hurry.
ART CLASSES BY PEL
You'd probably do a better job than I do.
Stop lying to your mom for her money.
Pel.
It's been a month together with Hima.
Will this be a monthly thing now?
Yes.
Let's stay together for a long time, Hima.
I've read this somewhere.
They say when dogs get a lot of love,
they live longer.
That's touching.
Isn't it, boss?
Very touching.
Cut the cake already!
Just use your hands.
What flavor is this?
Liver.
That little glutton's stealing your food.
Why didn't you tell me?
Hima, can I have a bite?
Tastes pretty "ruff."
Were
Were you always this sweet?
You just noticed?
Hima!
Eat up!
Birthday boy still hasn't had a bite.
-All yours.
-Do I need to feed him? Oh!

THE STORY OF AN OLD STRAY DOG
Once there lived an Old Dog,
who crossed the road recklessly.
He devoured leftovers
and ruined his health.
One day, he met a girl who loved him.
To make her truly happy,
he must live as long as possible.
But he's already so old.
So the Old Dog began
to take care of himself,
hoping to be with her
for a long, long time,
and to explore the world with her.
The Old Dog promised the girl,
"Until snow falls in Thailand,
I will never leave you."
-Got it?
-Hang on.
-Okay?
-Okay.
No worries, Hima.
Let's go on an adventure!
Of course!
Your wish is granted.
Are you sure about that?
We can go every month.
Well done, Hima.
He trusts me now.
You won't have to worry anymore.
Good boy.
Pack leader.
I'm the pack leader now.
Too bad our time with him is so short.
Three months might feel long for a dog.
People and dogs
experience time differently.
Dogs are better than humans
at remembering certain details.
When someone treats them well,
time slows down.
That explains it.
Since you came back
time barely moves.
Maybe I'm turning into a dog.
What do you think
he dreams about?
Are you really dreaming?
Pel.
Jaidee!
I want to go to the beach.
Take me to the beach, Mom!
Okay.
If Hima wants to go,
then why not?
-Look at the camera.
-Smile for the camera!
-One, two, three.
-Look.
Smile, old man! We're on vacation.
-Let's go to the beach today.
-Meatballs?
-Meatballs?
-A skewer, please.
Want some meatballs, Hima?
Can he eat that?
It's salty.
Come on, Pel!
Not anymore.
Come on!
Who would want to eat that, right?
Quickly! The sun's going down, Hima.
-Look at the sea, Hima.
-Here it is!
First time, huh?
Isn't it pretty?
Hima, wait up!
-Wait!
-Hey!
Hima!
Wait for me!
How about that?
-We should take a walk here next time.
-I've played this at home before.
He's wiped out.
Sleeping like a log.
Jaidee.
You said Hima likes to dream.
I think I know what he dreams of.
What?
PEL & JAIDEE 4EVERRR!
He dreams of
staying with us forever.
Jaidee.
Shall we
be together for real?
Actually, apart from Hima
I came back
because I was worried about you.
But I don't know if you've noticed.
I've been seeing someone for a while now.
I figured that
once Hima is gone,
I probably won't see you again.
But I don't hate you at all.
I just
don't want the other person to wait.
Hey.
I get it.
HIMA
Hima, you haven't had your saline yet.
Let's give you some.
Just a second.
Why am I giving you this?
You'll die anyway.
Hima.
Can you live on a little longer?
Hima.
Can you not die?
I don't have anyone left.
PEL & JAIDEE 4EVERRR!
Still awake?
I'm sorry.
From now on
I won't see you and Hima again.
If I keep seeing you both,
I might start loving you again.
It's okay.
You should go.
I promise I'll do my best
to take care of Hima.
So he'll live as long as possible.
What are you reading?
I'm counting snowflakes.
It says,
"The Old Dog promised the girl,
'Until snow falls in Thailand,
I will never leave you.'"
My mom says it never snows in Thailand.
Does it mean that this dog is immortal?
Hima!
Come here.
You look way cooler in real life.
Let's make it through this year, okay?
You're one tough dog. You know that?
Tired?
Close your eyes for ten minutes.
But if that's not enough
you can just fall right asleep.
Where are you taking me, Hima?
Gohan!
Thank you!
You're all grown up.
You won't fit in this box anymore.
Brownie.
You've done so well.
You really tried your best.
-Hima!
-Hima!
Come here, Hima!
-Come, Hima!
-Hima!
Hima!
I miss you more than anything
in the world.
Pel!
BOARDING DOOR: HIGH PLATFORM
I have to go.
Thank you, Hima!
Time slows down when I'm with you!
I want to stay with you forever, Hima!
UNTIL SNOW FALLS IN THAILAND,
I WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU
You're up?
What did you dream about?
Until snow falls, right?
You'll choke!
Let's go.
Statistically, 50.8% of Japanese over 60
remain in the workforce.
So why do I have to retire?
Hiro, we've extended
your contract many times.
Please just accept
your retirement gracefully.
Hiro,
on behalf of the company,
thank you
for all your years of serv--
Hiro, please.
I can't let you work here anymore.
My neck was stiff for six months,
and I still came back to work.
Also, I've worked here
my whole life.
You gave me this award.
-Doesn't it prick your conscience at all?
-Exactly.
Look, look!
I've worked on that model
since the prototype.
Prototype.
Dream on if you think I'll retire,
Tat.
Here.
Yikes. Rough day?
Put them in here.
Gosh.
There we go.
Gosh
All right.
How did you end up in here?
Nice to meet you.
What's up?
Are you hungry?
Cheers!
So you're the new engineer?
Here.
Your employee card.
Do your best.
Listen, newbie.
You must know every part inside out.
Hiro.
Be quiet, okay?
Understand?
Hang in there.
-Hello, Hiro!
-Morning.
It's cold today.
Going fishing after work?
Take me with you.
Little guy.
Come on out.
I can't look after you.
Go on now.
Stay here.
Pets aren't allowed at my condo.
Don't run into the street.
It's dangerous.
I have to go.
Bye.
Hey!
Paitoon. Why did you get out of the car?
We're already late. Let's go!
Wait! HR sent me to pick up the new hire.
Hello. You're Paitoon, right?
His Thai is excellent!
Hello, I'm Sawada.
I've been appointed Chief Engineer.
Looking forward to learning from you.
I'm the new Chief Engineer.
I'm still the Chief Engineer!
The only one in the company.
I haven't retired!
Let's go.
New kid, this is the drum test rule.
Keep your eyes sharp,
ears open,
and snout on the scent.
Feel the vibration.
Use all of your five senses.
That's the pursuit of perfection.
This one's good to go.
Back to work, everyone.
President!
I lost a round of rock-paper-scissors
to Hiro.
The winner gets to test the car first.
As of today,
you are an outsider.
You'll need permission
to enter the premises
from here on.
Do you need a hand?
No.
Shall I call a tuk-tuk for you?
Little guy.
Want to go on a trip?
The other day, I was checking blueprints,
leading a team,
going to lunch and meetings.
Today, I'm suddenly an outsider.
How absurd.
I'm healthier than ever.
Without my work, what do I have left?
You're adorable.
I got one!
Little guy!
Little guy.
Don't be scared.
Hang on.
So cute!
It tastes good, you know?
You want some?
Your fur is white,
just like lice.
Wait. No.
White, lice, rice.
Head lice.
The color white.
Eat rice.
Your fur is white,
just like rice!
Right?
I shall call you
Gohan.
Sound good? Gohan.
All right.
Gohan.
Hey! You scared me!
Happy New Year!
It's Hana.
I can't believe how fast you've grown.
So
how's your contract?
Did they extend it?
I take your silence as a no then.
Don't you want to move back here?
We could live nearby.
I'll find a place for you.
You can take care
of this little rice ball.
Hana
Let's celebrate
New Year's together, Gohan.
Hurry up, will you?
Oh, look. It's midnight.
Can't sell booze anymore.
Happy New Year.
-Happy New Year.
-Happy New Year.
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan.
It's not him.
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan.
Sorry.
Come here.
This way.
Don't be afraid.
Come here.
You're okay now.
Come. All right.
I'm glad you're okay.
I'm so glad.
You're safe now. Don't worry.
Just wait here, okay?
Gohan.
Hey.
Goodness.
Come here.
You can't do that.
Here, chew on this first.
That's it. Good boy.
That's too bad.
You will get used to it.
I sympathize with you.
I thought I could hold it in at first too.
I have a lot of adult diapers in stock.
Do you want to try one?
Slips on just like underwear.
No, thank you.
I mean, sounds good!
Teach me how to use it sometime, okay?
I have a pack right here.
I'll bring it over.
Just a second.
You don't have to do that!
Just throw it here.
I'm ready.
Wow!
Nice catch!
What was that noise?
Gohan.
Nice job.
Wow!
Hitching a ride to go fishing?
What?
If you get kicked out,
I won't drive you home.
Jeez!
-Can I get in?
-Hell yes!
What are you waiting for?
Son of a
Dog!
Whose dog did you steal?
So cute!
Is that your dog, Hiro?
Shiro.
His name is Gohan.
Do not call him willy-nilly, please.
And he's not my dog.
I'm only his temporary home.
Gohan.
Cute!
Gohan.
Gohan.
There.
-So cute.
-Gohan.
Hey.
Hiro!
What crazy scheme are you up to now?
Didn't I tell you?
You're not allowed in here.
Tat, I've decided to go back to Japan.
I'm willing to retire.
Really?
I'll look for a new job in Japan
once I find a home for this puppy.
Thai people are kind.
I'm sure I can find a new owner for Gohan.
Give me two weeks.
Please.
-Please!
-Please!
What's wrong with you all?
Everyone wants a dog now?
Yes!
Isn't he adorable, sir?
Cute, right?
I give you one week.
-Really?
-One week.
Thank you, Tat.
-Thank you, Tat!
-Thank you, Tat!
-So cute!
-Gohan.
Excuse me.
Is this the place for adoption interviews?
Please. Sit down.
I've dreamed of having a dog
ever since I was a child.
There used to be a stray in the alley
where I lived.
It was so cute and loyal.
Will you be keeping Gohan inside
or outside the house?
In the alley, like when I was a kid.
Let me take that into consideration.
Thank you.
How's that any different
from staying at 7-Eleven?
Poor little guy.
GOHAN'S ADOPTION INTERVIEWEE FORM
I want to keep him indoors.
He's safer inside the house.
I'll keep him safe in an enclosed space.
Will anyone be at home during the day?
No.
I live alone.
I'll hurry back to him once I clock out.
Let me consider it.
Thank you.
Leaving the dog alone
in the house all day?
Gohan would be miserable.
A dog in my neighborhood
was just poisoned.
I should probably get a new guard dog.
Gohan probably loves dragging stuff.
Who the hell let you in here?
May I ask what makes you, Ms. Sarocha,
a good fit for Gohan?
Dear Hiro,
respectfully,
I've always been a dog lover.
My house is fully fenced,
with a lawn in front.
My garden is lush and naturally shaded
Goodness. He's so cute! I can't!
I really want him!
I promise. If I get to take care of him
He moved!
Hey there, sweetie!
Hold still!
Oh, my god! So cute!
-Look here!
-Stop!
-What?
-He's going blind.
-Blind?
-Please leave.
I'll get him some medicine.
My neighborhood vet is
No, no.
Has anyone adopted him yet?
We live in the same condo, Sawada.
They don't allow pets there.
I'm not the one adopting him.
It's
my girlfriend.
Since Mali died,
I haven't been able to get another dog.
It took me years to get over Mali.
But when Sawada showed me
pictures of Gohan,
I felt like
it was destiny.
The nose, in particular.
Apart from Mali,
I've never seen a dog with this nose.
So Sawada and Meow,
how did you two meet?
-When Meow studied in Japan
-When I studied in Japan
After I graduated,
I came back to Si Racha.
For this relationship to work,
Sawada had no choice.
So I asked him to find work in Thailand.
Gohan!
Are you a dogzilla?
Quit raiding people's stuff!
Get him out of there!
He's so naughty. I'm sorry.
It's fine.
A naughty pup is a real pup.
She's the patron saint of puppies.
Good boy!
You got it, Gohan.
Give him a treat right away,
so he'll get used to it.
That's incredible.
She nailed it on the first try.
Here you go.
Are you planning to have kids?
We've already decided not to.
-Right?
-Yes.
Then
what if you two
break up?
Who will take care of Gohan?
Hey, that question's too personal.
It's okay.
In that case,
I will take care of Gohan.
If I decide to take care of him,
it's for life.
I wouldn't give Gohan to anyone else.
Hiro.
If you let Meow adopt Gohan,
I'll come in second around here.
But that's fine with me.
Last question.
What will Gohan's new name be?
Gohan is already a perfect name.
If you said Mali,
I would've changed my mind.
Wait
Let me consider it.
What?
Paitoon, let's go.
Go ahead.
It's obvious that you want to keep him.
I can only look after him temporarily.
I'm going back to Japan for work.
You're still thinking of work at this age?
Who cares about all this work nonsense?
I don't like
the phrase "who cares."
Sounds irresponsible.
What do you have to be responsible for?
Your wife is long gone.
Your son's grown up
and has his own family.
If I were retired like you,
I'd do nothing all day
except walk the dog.
Life's good!
I don't want to do nothing all day.
So why didn't you give them the dog?
What are you waiting for?
I have to consider it, just to be sure.
Consider, my ass!
I've known all along
that you want to keep him.
I got one!
Gohan!
What kind of fish do you want today?
Gohan.
Where did Gohan go, Paitoon?
I don't know.
-Gohan!
-Gohan!
Hold this!
-You don't care about the fish anymore?
-Gohan!
-Gohan!
-Gohan!
Gohan!
-Gohan!
-Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Hiro!
Don't jump
Too late.
Hiro!
Oh, man!
Hold on!
Hiro!
Gohan is here!
He's here!
What a relief!
He's here!
I have him!
Gohan.
Want to pee?
Do it here. Over here.
Here
Over here!
Paitoon.
Drive slowly.
Good morning.
I've
considered it.
Meow is going to take better care
of Gohan than I do.
Open it after I leave, please.
Thank you.
BEST EMPLOYER AND SERVICE AWARD 2010
To our company's living legend,
return home with happiness, Hiro.
Thank you.
Sawada,
I'll leave it to you.
The pursuit of perfection.
Don't make me fall in love
I'll get smitten, I'll fall too fast
Love's stuck deep in my heart
What can I do?
Try to pull it out, I just can't
Don't make me think you feel it
If you don't
If I get it wrong, I won't take the blame
If I hug you, what would you say?
Straight to the airport?
Hey, man.
You'll trip!
Paitoon, wait here.
I'll be quick.
Oh, for crying out loud.
The doorbell is right there.
Look at us, seriously.
No need.
That's enough already.
You're going to miss your flight.
Wait.
What's wrong?
What happened?
What is it?
Gohan, we'll dig later.
Let's go for a walk.
Come quick.
Gohan.
Good boy! Come here!
Let's go for a walk. Come.
No! Don't go that way.
This way.
Come this way.
Quick. Gohan!
Good boy. Let's go.
-Paitoon, let's go.
-Okay.
Gohan!
Gohan!
Gohan!
Paitoon!
-What?
-Stop the car!
What?
-Stop the car!
-Gohan!
Gohan.
How did you know it was me?
Was it the sound of the car?
It was, wasn't it?
You heard this car
every morning, didn't you?
Meow.
Please forgive me.
I'm not here to take Gohan back.
I'll get going now.
Do you know that this past week,
whenever a car drove by our house,
Gohan would run to the window?
Really?
He waits for you every day.
It's destiny.
Gohan chose you.
What about your "work in Japan"?
Who cares, Paitoon?
Who cares!
Snoopy and Charlie.
There you go.
Looking sharp!
Hello, Dad.
How's your new house?
Gohan, wait up!
I like it. No more elevators.
I see.
And how's your new job going?
Well
It's pretty challenging.
There's still a lot for me to learn.
All right!
Today was fun, huh?
Time for bed.
Good night, Gohan.
Are you hungry?
Here.
Help me carry him.
Easy, buddy. It's okay.
Here.
Dog sedative.
To calm him down.
Quickly.
Do you understand Thai?
Yes.
One shot and it'll be over.
Push the plunger all the way.
KUNG'S DOG SHELTER,
DONATE TO SAVE A STRAY'S LIFE
Hello, it's Kung here,
giving you an update on Gohan.
As you know, Gohan's Japanese owner
passed away from COVID last week.
The rescue team was notified
of a COVID-related death.
The deceased was
a 70-year-old Japanese man.
His faithful dog, Gohan,
stayed by his side.
Think about it.
If a person gets COVID,
they will receive help.
DOG GUARDS OWNER
WHO PASSED AWAY FROM COVID
But no one dares to help the dog.
They don't want to risk getting exposed.
The rescue team contacted my shelter.
When I found Gohan,
he was lying very still in the dark.
I could tell that he was hungry
and sick.
His eyes were
He looked so depressed,
as if waiting for his owner to return.
But his owner is already gone.
Gohan, time to eat!
Gohan.
Welcome to your new home.
Moe Thee, her salary is five grand.
Her arms are smaller than a dog's legs.
She's got no paperwork too.
Can you talk to her?
Here.
Yes?
Five grand is not bad.
It's better than struggling in Myanmar.
Work for five to six months.
Save up for your permit,
then find other work.
Okay?
All right.
Okay then.
Wait.
There's one rule here.
No phones allowed.
Or should I call Moe Thee
to come pick you up?
Okay, sir.
Just use my phone
if there's anything urgent.
KUNG'S DOG SHELTER
Keep it.
Go in.
Your Burmese name is hard to pronounce.
Let's just call you Namcha.
Your job is
to feed the dogs food and water.
Take them out to do their business.
All 30 of them here.
Got it?
Feed them every other day.
We're in a pandemic.
Donations are thin.
Hold on.
Shit. All the cages are full.
Dum!
Easy there.
-Put him in there.
-Okay.
Sit down.
Come on.
Hi, guys. I have an update on Gohan.
He's still pretty weak right now
due to blood parasites.
If you would like to sponsor
Gohan's treatment,
please transfer the funds
to the shelter's account.
I'LL DONATE TO GOHAN EVERY MONTH.
MY DONATION TO GOHAN.
RECOVER SOON, GOHAN.
GET WELL SOON, GOHAN.
ROOTING FOR YOU, GOHAN.
I promise I'll do my best
to take care of Gohan.
I'm sorry.
If I'd known,
I wouldn't have helped capture you.
I'll be here by your side.
Time for bed.
Not for long now.
Quickly.
I've got enough savings,
so I'm leaving now.
This is all I can do for you guys.
Go as far as you can. Understand?
Stay and you'll end up like Dum.
This one.
MOBILE SHOP
It's fully charged, ready to use.
Let me check if the camera works.
Smile!
Gohan!
Why are you following me?
Go on!
Get out of here!
I'm going to look
for a new job in Bangkok.
I can't even manage myself.
How can I look after you?
Go look for your new home! Go on!
Go.
You're going to get me in trouble.
Hey.
If you want to come along,
stay still and be quiet.
Passengers going to Bangkok,
please board the bus at Platform One.
TO MOE THEE: TRANSFERRED.
COMING FOR MY PERMIT.
I'm on my way.
Yes, it's the same price we agreed on.
He's sitting right beside me.
I know the driver.
He made an exception.
We'll be arriving soon.
They're going to mate him with their hen.
Yes, around a hundred thousand.
Well, he's been through countless fights.
Don't be sad. Come on in first.
We can talk about it later.
Hell no!
Why is there a dog on the bus?
Help!
Gohan!
How are we going to make it to Bangkok?
I can't afford to hire a car.
You're unbelievable.
Just get lost.
Go.
Are you arguing with me?
Don't you dare.
Shall I dump you here?
Come here.
Sit down.
I could eat you up, you rascal!
Go that way.
Gohan, quickly!
Gohan?
That's clever.
Let's turn you into a golden retriever.
All done.
Ready to go?
Okay. Good boy!
Let's go.
GOHAN
This dog?
Yes, this white one!
She snuck it onto the bus.
I kicked them out along the way.
-Are you sure?
-Yes!
Damn it!
Moe Thee,
your worker is causing trouble again.
What did she do?
She took my fucking dog!
MOE THEE, 15 MISSED CALLS
What have you done?
Kung is about to rip my head off!
If I don't bring you back,
he'll report me for smuggling workers.
He wouldn't dare call the cops.
What do you mean?
Do you know what kind of person he is?
How he abuses all the dogs?
So you stole one and ran away with it?
I didn't steal!
He followed me.
You want to go to jail over a damn dog?
I'm in deep shit because of you!
Just give me my permit
if you don't want trouble.
Fine. I'll send you the location
for tomorrow.
You'll get your permit
and we're done here.
Gohan.
Why are you licking the fridge?
You really want those brownies?
Dogs can't have chocolate.
If you want it that badly,
should I just call you Brownie?
Oh?
You like this name?
Let's see.
Strawberry?
Cookie?
Muffin?
Brownie?
Okay.
From now on,
you'd better respond to "Brownie."
Brownie.
Such a good boy!
Back home in Myanmar,
there was a stray dog.
My family wouldn't let me keep it,
but I snuck out to play with it every day.
My mom told me
not to name it
or I'd start getting attached.
You're the first dog I'd ever named.
BROWNIE
Good night,
Brownie.
Brownie?
Brownie?
Brownie!
It sniffed around,
then jumped in and got comfy.
I'm really sorry!
Brownie, what are you doing here?
You're bothering his fish!
Where are you from?
I'm from Myawaddy.
I'm from Bago.
So where are you headed?
Want a ride with Jumbo to Bangkok?
Shall we go with them, Brownie?
MEET HERE AT 8 P.M.
-Thank you.
-Sure.
Let's go!
Come on.
No. Come here.
Look over there.
We'll come back to play next time, okay?
We have to go now.
Hi, there.
When Moe Thee heard "immigration,"
he spilled.
-Please!
-Come quickly!
Please let the dog go!
I can work for free!
Let the dog go? Are you insane?
This dog's been on TV.
He's worth more than you!
You're going to pay for it, bitch.
Come!
What are you going to do?
It fucking hurts!
Son of a bitch!
Namcha!
Brownie, quickly!
Stop!
Inside, quickly!
Good boy, Brownie.
You're so brave.
Thank you.
Ladies and gentlemen!
Get ready for the thrill of your life.
The most dangerous act of the night!
It's a dog!
Dog!
Brownie!
Brownie
It's okay.
Hey!
You!
Catch her!
She's a thief!
What did you steal?
Brownie!
Fuck!
You've got to be kidding me.
Move.
Hey! The dog!
Your dog went that way!
That way! Quick!
Out of the way!
Brownie!
-Sir! They went that way!
-Sir! That way!
-That way!
-This way?
Yes!
Brownie!
Brownie!
Brownie!
Brownie.
Kitty cat.
Have you seen a dog around here?
Can you please help me find him?
Brownie!
Brownie!
Why are you swimming here?
Brownie.
I thought I'd lost you!
Still got the nerve to call?
Can we talk nicely?
Please?
Just let us go.
I can let you go.
But not the dog.
Can you be kind to the dogs?
Little doggy.
Little doggy.
Handsome boy.
Kindness doesn't make money.
Do you know
how much money I make from him?
I'll give you one last chance.
Bring me Gohan.
I'll give you sixty grand and your permit.
Choose wisely.
It's your life or the dog's.
What's it going to be?
This one.
Thank you.
This bracelet
was given to me by my mom.
She said it would keep me safe.
I hope
that it will
keep you safe too, Brownie.
Actually, my name isn't Namcha.
It's Aye Shin.
Please remember my name.
And you
You'll be my Brownie forever.
Okay?
I got you a cake.
Sorry that I could only
bring you this far.
Hey!
Where's the fucking dog?
Far away from scums like you!
Shit.
Hey! Stop the train!
Wait!
Shit!
Fuck!
Is this what you want?
You think you've won by freeing the dog?
Are you stupid?
There are thousands of strays
in this country.
I can round them up, sedate them,
and make my living!
But for you?
You're done.
I'll call immigration
and have you deported.
Too late for that.
Found them.
Fine.
Let's see who they'll believe.
I'm not scared of you.
Wait!
Listen to me. Wait.
I have sixty grand.
Your permit too.
Please stop!
I'm sorry.
I won't do it again, okay?
Just don't post the clip online.
Dum.
Lucky.
Shabu.
Sugar.
Kaowpun.
Michael.
I know I can't rescue every dog
in this world.
But at least I've rescued them from you.
This is the best I can do.
Was it you who called us?
She said you hired illegal workers.
We'll talk at the station.
Do you have any other evidence?
No.
Are you stupid?
There are thousands of strays
in this country.
We can't do anything further.
And you still have to be deported.
BROWNIE
To whoever reads this letter
You've finally met this troublemaker.
He's a good dog
who deserves a good life.
A life that I can't give.
You may not love him.
But please don't hurt him.
Let him have a little space
to live in this world.
But if you love him
BROWNIE
It doesn't matter what his name was.
Just give him one last name
for the rest of his life.
You can do it. It's not that much.
I'm worried I won't finish in time.
Let's go, Pel.
Wait.
Take a photo of me with this dog.
Stop fooling around.
Gosh, you're so cute!
Polaroids are expensive, you know?
Why do you want a photo with the dog?
The dog is here to welcome us,
which means today will be a good day.
I will ace my interview exam.
It's for good luck.
Look over there.
PEL & JAIDEE 4EVERRR!
That's cringe, man!
No one is allowed to see this.
You got Pel in a photo with me.
If I get into university,
I'll play with you every day.
Okay?
Okay.
Pel.
Can you name him?
Whitey.
Oh, come on!
Can you be more creative?
Elsa.
Elsa?
Elsa!
Elsa?
Well, it's white,
so she's a snow princess.
What kind of princess has a ding dong?
Hima sounds better.
-Is it?
-Let's go. Everybody's gone.
See you around, Hima.
Welcome, Fine Arts freshmen!
Hop off the train and line up over here.
Follow your seniors.
Pel.
There's Hima.
HIMA
Hima!
Do you know your name yet?
I brought you some apples.
Helps with digestion.
Dig in.
-Jaidee, everybody's left already.
-Here.
-Quick!
-And some water.
Wait a second!
Since we're already feeding him every day,
shall we raise him at our rental house?
Shall we?
He doesn't even know his name.
Playing with him is enough.
He'll just be a burden.
-Let's go home.
-Let's go.
We do everything as a couple,
but you never want
to admit our relationship.
Why is it so hard for you?
I don't want to put a label on it.
Or should we just call it off?
So childish!
Pel!
Hima.
I've graduated.
I won't be around as often now.
I hope you'll meet kind people.
You're really going to leave?
Without a word?
I'm sorry, okay?
Jaidee!
Can we talk?
Jaidee!
-This camera right here.
-Thank you.
One, two, three.
One more. One, two, three.
Thank you.
Help me out.
Call your mom.
Hima!
-Hima
-Hima
Here!
Good boy.
Hima.
Good boy.
How's it going?
I've missed you.
How about a group photo?
-Okay.
-Scooch in!
-Ready?
-Look there.
-One
-The camera over there.
Wait!
Pel, join us.
The professor didn't let you graduate,
but I will.
Come on, man!
Squat in the front.
Ready, guys?
Get closer. Ready?
Three, two, one.
How's it going?
You're a flight attendant now?
Congratulations.
Pel.
You should move to the side, man.
Your hair is stealing our moment.
Okay. That's perfect, everyone!
Okay.
Jaidee.
Come on. Over here.
I realized I can't be without you.
I'm ready to make it official now.
I also realized
that my life is way better without you.
Please.
Can you just
leave me alone?
Okay, let's take the photo.
The sun is setting.
Come on, guys. Ready?
One, two, three!
Hima!
He only got a small stitch today.
But the bad news is
He may not live much longer.
There's nothing wrong with his leg,
but his kidneys are in poor condition.
He needs to be on a strict diet.
No human food whatsoever.
He needs constant saline shots
to dilute the waste from his blood.
So
How much time does he have left?
For him
Around three months.
Who is he living with?
Who's taking care of him?
He's with me.
I'm the only one who's still around.
Okay, so listen.
What you need to do
is give him saline shots
at least three days a week.
Be gentle.
He's probably ten years old now.
Take good care of him.
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
Thank you.
We'll handle the bill.
You two stay with Hima.
See you.
Give me the medicine.
I'll handle it.
It's a two-person job.
Didn't you see it?
What are you saying?
I mean
We can do it at the station together.
Wait here.
Look out for your mom.
Pel, what a life you're living.
All you do is sit around,
watching trains go by.
Since you've dropped out,
what are you doing now?
I'm waiting for Jaidee.
I'm guarding my dog! God, you're nosy!
Then where's your dog?
Hey.
Hima!
Hima!
What are the chances
of an old, partially blind dog
getting hit while crossing the road?
100% instant death.
Hima!
Are you trying to cross the road
or cross into the next life?
Eat up.
Turn it down a notch.
Do us all a favor.
I'm out.
Don't bother waiting.
Your mom isn't coming.
I'm picking up Hima
and moving back into the house.
It's best to take care of him there.
For his last three months,
I want to treat him well.
I didn't do enough before.
This is my only chance.
Excited to come home?
Don't rush.
Let me park.
Be patient.
Easy, boss.
Watch your step, old man!
It's okay. Let me take that.
All done.
Now you smell nice and clean!
Wow, thanks for that.
How about a reward after your shower?
You want some milk, Hima?
Dogs can't have dairy.
Didn't you know?
Who's a handsome boy?
HIMA
I drew that for him.
I listened to a lot of metal
while you were gone.
Can't really do slow songs.
They trigger the waterworks.
I needed something heavier.
Like I was back in the day.
-A sweet face, but--
-I don't like it.
Okay, ma'am.
HIMA
You won't feel a thing.
Stay still.
Got it.
Good boy.
I'm scheduled to fly almost every day.
I'll swap flights for these three months,
so I can help with Hima.
So which days are you busy?
Actually
My mom doesn't know that I've dropped out.
I told her I'm doing my master's,
so I could use the tuition money.
So you're free every day.
You do lunch.
I'll do breakfast and dinner.
I'll write down the feeding times for you.
Sounds good, Hima?
Almost done.
What a good boy.
It's a crisis.
You're in a hopeless situation.
The fact that she doesn't care
means that she feels nothing
for you anymore.
Let me tell you something.
My husband cheated on me three times.
Guess how I felt the third time.
Hatred?
I felt nothing.
You know, the opposite of love
isn't hate.
It's feeling nothing.
What if I treat Hima well
before he passes?
Will Jaidee see me differently?
That sounds fake as hell, man.
Everyone can see
that you're not a dog person.
And don't forget to pay me.
You've used up this month's credits.
Gosh, Pel.
You're unbelievable.
You can't even afford
your AI subscription.
How are you going
to pay my rent this month?
Well, help me think!
If she agrees to move back in with me,
I'll keep paying your rent.
Fine!
Look. Don't pretend to love dogs.
You just have to prove to her
that the dog loves you!
See you soon, buddy.
Be a good boy, okay?
I'll hurry back.
Take care of the house.
See you, Jaidee.
Got everything, right?
You want this?
What do you do?
Paw.
Good boy!
For you.
I'm the pack leader.
Remember that.
Jaidee.
Jaidee.
He just crashed in my room.
Take care of him.
Night.
Hima.
What's wrong?
Was it a nightmare?
It's okay.
Pel, do you think Jaidee's lost it?
Look at her.
She's working out. Let her be!
You good, bro?
Still jumpy, Scooby Doo?
Where's your Shaggy gone?
Can you not play horror games with Hima?
He gets nightmares.
You guys too.
If you're here just to mess with Hima,
don't come again.
Hima. Lunch.
Hima.
Come here.
Have your lunch with me.
Hima, lunch.
Jaidee.
I think we have a problem.
He's really attached to me.
I think he wants me to sleep in your room.
Maybe it's a good idea.
Shall we try it? Is there enough room?
He sure is attached.
I can sleep on the floor.
You're all done. Good boy.
Bang, bang! You're dead!
Awesome.
RIP, Hima.
Can you not joke about death with him?
You know he doesn't have much time.
I was just joking.
Are you mad?
I don't like it.
Pel!
Let me see.
Please wait 15 minutes to observe,
then you can go home.
Please don't hate him.
He didn't mean it.
I don't hate him.
He still bites hard. That's healthy.
You can hate me if you want.
Just don't feel nothing.
Let me hate you for now.
Bang!
You're dead.
Oh, that hurts!
Paw.
I did it in a hurry.
ART CLASSES BY PEL
You'd probably do a better job than I do.
Stop lying to your mom for her money.
Pel.
It's been a month together with Hima.
Will this be a monthly thing now?
Yes.
Let's stay together for a long time, Hima.
I've read this somewhere.
They say when dogs get a lot of love,
they live longer.
That's touching.
Isn't it, boss?
Very touching.
Cut the cake already!
Just use your hands.
What flavor is this?
Liver.
That little glutton's stealing your food.
Why didn't you tell me?
Hima, can I have a bite?
Tastes pretty "ruff."
Were
Were you always this sweet?
You just noticed?
Hima!
Eat up!
Birthday boy still hasn't had a bite.
-All yours.
-Do I need to feed him? Oh!

THE STORY OF AN OLD STRAY DOG
Once there lived an Old Dog,
who crossed the road recklessly.
He devoured leftovers
and ruined his health.
One day, he met a girl who loved him.
To make her truly happy,
he must live as long as possible.
But he's already so old.
So the Old Dog began
to take care of himself,
hoping to be with her
for a long, long time,
and to explore the world with her.
The Old Dog promised the girl,
"Until snow falls in Thailand,
I will never leave you."
-Got it?
-Hang on.
-Okay?
-Okay.
No worries, Hima.
Let's go on an adventure!
Of course!
Your wish is granted.
Are you sure about that?
We can go every month.
Well done, Hima.
He trusts me now.
You won't have to worry anymore.
Good boy.
Pack leader.
I'm the pack leader now.
Too bad our time with him is so short.
Three months might feel long for a dog.
People and dogs
experience time differently.
Dogs are better than humans
at remembering certain details.
When someone treats them well,
time slows down.
That explains it.
Since you came back
time barely moves.
Maybe I'm turning into a dog.
What do you think
he dreams about?
Are you really dreaming?
Pel.
Jaidee!
I want to go to the beach.
Take me to the beach, Mom!
Okay.
If Hima wants to go,
then why not?
-Look at the camera.
-Smile for the camera!
-One, two, three.
-Look.
Smile, old man! We're on vacation.
-Let's go to the beach today.
-Meatballs?
-Meatballs?
-A skewer, please.
Want some meatballs, Hima?
Can he eat that?
It's salty.
Come on, Pel!
Not anymore.
Come on!
Who would want to eat that, right?
Quickly! The sun's going down, Hima.
-Look at the sea, Hima.
-Here it is!
First time, huh?
Isn't it pretty?
Hima, wait up!
-Wait!
-Hey!
Hima!
Wait for me!
How about that?
-We should take a walk here next time.
-I've played this at home before.
He's wiped out.
Sleeping like a log.
Jaidee.
You said Hima likes to dream.
I think I know what he dreams of.
What?
PEL & JAIDEE 4EVERRR!
He dreams of
staying with us forever.
Jaidee.
Shall we
be together for real?
Actually, apart from Hima
I came back
because I was worried about you.
But I don't know if you've noticed.
I've been seeing someone for a while now.
I figured that
once Hima is gone,
I probably won't see you again.
But I don't hate you at all.
I just
don't want the other person to wait.
Hey.
I get it.
HIMA
Hima, you haven't had your saline yet.
Let's give you some.
Just a second.
Why am I giving you this?
You'll die anyway.
Hima.
Can you live on a little longer?
Hima.
Can you not die?
I don't have anyone left.
PEL & JAIDEE 4EVERRR!
Still awake?
I'm sorry.
From now on
I won't see you and Hima again.
If I keep seeing you both,
I might start loving you again.
It's okay.
You should go.
I promise I'll do my best
to take care of Hima.
So he'll live as long as possible.
What are you reading?
I'm counting snowflakes.
It says,
"The Old Dog promised the girl,
'Until snow falls in Thailand,
I will never leave you.'"
My mom says it never snows in Thailand.
Does it mean that this dog is immortal?
Hima!
Come here.
You look way cooler in real life.
Let's make it through this year, okay?
You're one tough dog. You know that?
Tired?
Close your eyes for ten minutes.
But if that's not enough
you can just fall right asleep.
Where are you taking me, Hima?
Gohan!
Thank you!
You're all grown up.
You won't fit in this box anymore.
Brownie.
You've done so well.
You really tried your best.
-Hima!
-Hima!
Come here, Hima!
-Come, Hima!
-Hima!
Hima!
I miss you more than anything
in the world.
Pel!
BOARDING DOOR: HIGH PLATFORM
I have to go.
Thank you, Hima!
Time slows down when I'm with you!
I want to stay with you forever, Hima!
UNTIL SNOW FALLS IN THAILAND,
I WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU
You're up?
What did you dream about?
Until snow falls, right?
