Big news.
Principal Praphada is going to
expel Shin from school.
If I can fix the misunderstandings
my classmates have about him,
he won’t be expelled, right?
You can drop your act now.
Confess the truth to everyone? Gross!
Come to school right now.
I’ll give up the most important thing to me.
Is school your most important thing?
The most important thing that I’m giving up,
It’s not school.
It’s you, Shin.
The most important thing that I’m giving up,
it’s not school.
It’s you, Shin.
RESIGNATION.
Shin.
Hello, Miss Jan.
You’re early.
I just woke up early today.
You already knew about
Saint resigning from a school, right?
Yes.
I’ll solve this case.
I’ll try to bring Saint back to school.
You don’t have to worry.
For the time being,
study hard and come to school every day.
Actually, it’s none of my business.
I don’t care.
Excuse me then.
You know.
You say one thing but mean another.
Me?
Deep down inside, you don’t hate Saint.
I can see it.
Then you saw it wrongly.
Thamnithit.
VP, where’s the class president?
I don’t know either.
Naruebet.
Kasidit.
Absent.
We’re here.
Kasidit.
Nuttapat.
Nuttakit.
Late as usual.
You’ve never made it on time.
Well, Nuttapat.
Your English score is better.
Did you practice on your own?
Hey, did you betray us?
I didn’t.
No way.
He just told us.
Keep up with a good job.
Okay.
Damn, he acted cool.
And you said “No. No way.”.
You’re not my brother.
You jerk.
I said I didn’t mean it.
No? You said no?
Alright. The homeroom is over.
Prepare for the next class.
Class.
Thank you. Bye bye.
Okay, Oat. I’ll leave my profile on the chat.
Alright. I’ll leave it to you.
Okay. Thank you.
SAINT.
WHERE ARE YOU?
WHY DIDN’T YOU COME TO SCHOOL?
What are you doing?
Do you care about Saint now?
I just don’t want to do
those tasks on his behalf.
Is that so?
When I didn’t come to class,
you didn’t check me out.
I always look out for you.
I know. I’m no longer important.
Eve, don’t get upset.
Please, please, please.
Forgive me. Forgive me.
Don’t be upset, okay?
Just kidding.
Why would I be bothered by this little thing?
Frankly speaking.
I’m so annoyed that
I have to collect and submit the homework
to teachers on his behalf.
It’s so heavy.
No problem.
Look at this.
Strong.
You call this a muscle?
Why are you laughing?
I was just laughing at ​​your flapping.
Oops, flexing.
What’s it got to do with you?
Hey, Eve.
Don’t pick a fight with her.
That’s right, Eve.
Don’t pick a fight with me.
What’s your problem with me, Airy?
Nothing.
I just laughed by myself.
Is that a problem?
Yeah, it is as you do it before me.
I don’t like it.
Hey, stop it.
Why are you picking a fight?
Don’t butt in. I didn’t talk to you.
Talk to my friend nicely.
Why?
Do you care a lot about her?
Acting like this,
you want to fight me badly, right?
Go ahead.
Go ahead.
Go ahead.
Go ahead.
Stop it, both of you.
Come on, Eve. Let’s go.
What’s wrong, Miss Jan?
Is it about Saint?
Yes.
What should we do?
There’s no need for action.
This resignation letter is invalid anyway.
Judging from the handwriting,
Saint must write it all himself
and forged his dad’s signature.
I think his dad doesn’t know about this.
That’s right.
Sigh.
Then, we still have some hope.
If we tell his parents,
they might urge him to come back.
I think we shouldn’t do it that way.
If we do so,
Saint will just run away from us more.
Okay, bro.
I can start working tomorrow.
Thank you so much for choosing me.
Okay.
Ugh.
Dad.
I made a steamed egg. Will you have it?
I already had dinner.
Hey, why are you back early?
Don’t you have an extra class?
They canceled it.
You skipped it again, right?
Saint,
how many times
have I told you to focus on learning,
not on obsessing over work like this?
Studying just costs money,
but working actually earns it.
So, I can help you.
But knowledge gives you more opportunities
to choose from in the future.
Right?
Or do you want to spend your whole life
selling noodles like me?
What’s wrong with that?
What?
I can eat it for free as much as I want.
It also tastes good.
Saint.
What a nice benefit.
Did you? You just talked back to me?
Go sleep.
I’ll shower first.
Be careful.
Go to bed early.
Huh?
I’m sorry, dad.
Guys.
Breaking news. Super urgent.
Again? What is it this time?
Saint already quit school.
What?
Yes. I saw him working
at a gas station near our school.
He also told me
he wouldn’t come back anymore.
What is he thinking?
Exactly.
Did he want to quit just like this?
Or were there other reasons?
What?
Good morning, friends.
Sorry.
Hey, sorry.
Saint is not here again?
Maybe he cries in secret because of Shin.
Why the heck did you hit the desk?
Stop it.
You guys cannot fight in class.
Or else I’ll report Miss Jan and Mr. Sung.
Oh, that’s so scary.
Miss Vice President.
I’m serious.
Peeta,
Don’t think just because you’re a girl,
I won’t do anything to you.
Is that so?
Where are you going?
Let go of me.
Let go of me.
- Let her go.
- I told you to let go of me.
Ken, I told you to let go of Peeta.
Let her go.
Eve, why do you have to butt in?
Let her go.
You bastard.
You two come fight with us.
Oh, you dared push me?
The heck you push me for, you jerk?
Wow. Wow.
Just take them down for real this time.
Been annoyed by them for ages.
Wait.
If you fight, everyone will be in trouble.
We might be expelled.
My mom set this rule, don’t you remember?
That’s right.
Principal Praphada said
whoever picked a fight again
would be expelled.
Do you want to be expelled,
Shin, Tew, and First?
Do you want to be expelled,
Shin, Tew, and First?
Someone is scared.
Ken, if you aren’t afraid, then do it.
I’ll record a clip as evidence for Shin,
proving that you start the fight.
Hey, Peeta.
The heck you sided with him for?
Can you stop being delusional?
We’re all in the same school.
The campuses are no longer separated.
If you aren’t afraid, then do it.
Oh, we can go ahead?
What will you do?
I’ll put that aside for now.
That’s classic.
Let’s go smoke.
I’ll go smoke first.
So nonsense.
The reason I called both of you here today
is that I want to emphasize
and clarify the reasons I hired you
as homeroom teachers for Class 2.
I assigned both of you to look after Class 2
because I want the students in this class
to improve and become well-behaved,
with better grades.
But it’s already been several months,
and I haven’t seen any positive progress
in this class at all.
All I see is trouble, day after day.
We’re both sorry.
I want you to be stricter with the students
because this is the model classroom
we need to make successful.
We should also prepare the students
for next year.
Everyone in Class 2 must be able to pass
the university entrance exams.
Do you understand?
He really works here.
I seriously don’t understand him.
That’s right.
I don’t understand him either.
Why are you here?
The same reason as you guys.
Do you think we can convince him?
Challenging.
Saint is stubborn.
Yeah, I think so.
But we have to try.
Should we go now?
Let’s go.
Saint.
Oh.
Why are you here?
We’re here to bring you back to school.
I quit it already.
Why did you do that?
I don’t want to study anymore.
Better quit school and start working.
Only because of that?
You didn’t want to study so you quit.
Didn’t your family say anything?
We aren’t wealthy,
so dropping out of school
would help ease our financial burden.
Well, Saint.
I think you better go back to school.
You can work again once you graduate.
My dad once said education…
Thanks everyone for your concern.
But I’ll not go back to school.
I’ll get back to work then.
Uh…
What should we do now?
There’s only 1 person who can help.
Who is that?
It’s Shin.
I asked him to come but he refused.
Can you really just quit school
just because you don’t feel like studying?
MOM.
I want to quit school, mom.
I don’t want to study.
Don’t want to be the principal’s son.
I…
Don’t want to be like my brother.
Yes, mom.
I’m in front of the house.
The tutor school ended late.
Yes.
Cable,
I’ve booked a class with Miss Pha
for you tomorrow.
Be there on time. Don’t be late.
Noted.
The exam period is getting close.
I think you should start
reviewing your lessons.
I want you to be an example
for others in your class.
I guess if I started with you first,
I’d certainly be able to make
Class 2 a model classroom.
Alright.
Even if it's just a quiz,
the score is still important.
You're the principal's son.
Don't embarrass me, understand?
Okay.
What about your homework?
You submitted everything, right?
Cable.
I’m asking you.
Can you stop, mom?
I can't take it anymore.
Can you please stop doing this to me?
I don’t want to end up like my brother.
Cable.
Why do you have to
pressure us about everything?
Copter was like that…
Stop bringing up your brother.
Because you are like this.
You never care about us.
You only order others to do what you want.
And you never consider our feelings.
Because you are like this,
Copter left me and you.
Cable,
listen to me.
Stop blaming me for this.
The reason your brother ended up that way
has nothing to do with me
or with school.
Then can you let me know?
Brother has been gone for three years now,
and you’ve never told me anything.
You still love me, right?
You promised me that you would listen to me
and do everything for me
in place of your brother.
So, you should trust me.
You still trust me, right?
Yes.
Go shower and review today’s lesson.
Alright.
Sigh.
Here is your receipt.
Thank you.
Safe trip, sir.
Shin.
Do you want to do it this way?
What do you mean?
That you would quit school.
Yeah, I'm serious.
I’ll go back to school.
You’ll never see me again.
Are you trying to annoy me?
Do you think what I'm doing
is just to provoke you?
Yeah.
I’m doing this
because I want you to finish your studies.
You told me yourself
if I gave up my most important thing,
then you would return to school.
But…
Make sure you keep your promise.
Make sure you graduate from high school.
Hello, what kind do you want?
B7 for 1,000 THB.
Sigh.
What’s wrong?
About Brother Saint.
That’s right.
You talked to him, how was it?
I told you.
Though I talked to him,
he wouldn’t change his mind.
Well, then did you clear up with Saint?
What to clear up?
Here it is. That’s why it failed.
I went to see him as you told me to.
What else do you want?
Shin, you’re hopeless.
You can’t even make up with your friend.
Huh?
Make up?
Why do I have to make up with him?
I didn’t do that.
You are stubborn.
I better finish my homework. Boohoo.
Yeah, finish your homework.
So, mom won’t scold me.
Chadjen, you should go home now.
What?
You failed to make up with him
and blamed it on me.
I told you I didn’t do that.
Why don’t you get it?
I think we need to change
our teaching method.
We should try to focus more
on the practice tests.
I think it's too soon.
Teaching focused on exam drills
might work well for students
who already have a solid foundation,
but many of our students
are still struggling with the basics.
I think we should start teaching
from the basics instead.
I'm afraid we won't have enough time,
and the principal won't be pleased.
I'm worried that if we rush too much,
the kids will give up.
I understand your concern
that the kids might give up on learning,
but the quiz season is coming up soon.
If we want to see quick results,
we have to try a different teaching approach.
Mr. Sung and Miss Jan.
What the matter?
We know where Saint is.
We found Saint working at the gas station
near our school.
A gas station?
That’s right.
We tried to convince him to come back
but he didn’t listen to us at all.
I’ll be there shortly then.
You don’t have to do that.
I’ll go there.
Thank you, sir. Here’s your receipt.
Kiddo, throw away the trash for me.
Okay.
Hello. What kind of gas do you want?
Mr. Sung.
What’s up, class president?
Skipping school to work instead?
Yes.
I left school to help my dad make a living.
What do you think
you’ll be doing ten years from now?
What do you mean?
I mean,
how do you picture yourself in the future?
Doing this kind of work,
or something different?
I can handle my own future.
Without even having a high school diploma?
Are you sure about this?
I'm warning you out of goodwill,
class president.
Don’t do anything you might regret later,
because we can’t go back and fix it.
And you think that
if I go back to school and graduate,
my life in the future will really be different
from what it is now?
I can’t predict the future,
but I know you’ll have options
if you focus on finishing your studies.
Also, class president,
I know you forged your parent's signature.
If you really want to drop out,
go get the real signature.
But think it through,
your future could depend on it.
Shin.
When will you quit smoking?
Why?
It’s bad for your health.
I don’t want you to get sick.
I’m gonna be fine.
Hey, Chadjen.
What are you doing?
You said it’s fine.
So I want to try it, too.
You cannot. It’s bad for kids.
It’s also bad for adults.
Bad for people around them, too.
So, if you can, please quit it.
Fine, fine.
I won’t smoke today.
It’s best if you don’t smoke every day.
Shin, have you talked to Saint?
Sigh.
Um, I talked to him.
But he insisted on quitting.
Then you go talk to him again.
He only listens to you.
Why does it have to be me?
You go there yourself.
It's clear that his absence from class
is because of you.
You need to take responsibility.
Can’t you guys be friends again?
That’s right.
Just talk and clear things up.
No need to sulk like a child like this.
It has nothing to do with you.
It has.
His absence troubles me.
I have the right to say.
Be kind to him a little, Shin.
You know it well
how much he tries to make up with you.
The exam is coming. So annoying.
F♪cking boring.
I’m too lazy to review the lessons.
Well, here’s a change.
Let’s go back and play games.
Yeah, let’s go.
Saint.
Yes, sir.
There are lots of customers today.
Yeah, pretty much.
Are you sure you won’t go back to study?
Yes, sir.
And you’re sure your dad won’t complain?
It’s okay.
I’ll go home now.
Goodbye.
Why are you here?
I brought the car to refuel.
How did you end up here?
Why didn’t you tell me?
Do I have to find out from your teachers?
You don't want to study anymore, right?
Didn’t you tell me you wanted to graduate?
So what's going on?
Why do you suddenly want to drop out?
I…
I'm asking seriously,
why have you changed your mind?
Did someone do something to you?
No one did anything to me, Dad.
I just want to drop out.
Just want to drop out?"
Yeah.
Well, you really are just like your mom.
In what way?
You can't lie for crap.
Sigh.
Come on,
will you tell me why you want to do this?
Fine, fine.
If you don't want to tell me, that's okay.
It's your choice.
If you want to drop out,
I won’t stop you.
Go to school with me tomorrow.
Why?
Well, to sign the resignation letter.
It's clear that his absence from class
is because of you.
You need to take responsibility.
Who would believe a brat like you?
You were planning to smash the glass
and steal from my store, weren't you?
I already told you that it wasn't intentional.
Open your bag for me to see right now.
Hey, hey, hey.
And your pants pocket too.
I'm not a thief.
Sigh.
Oh, you brought your friend.
Here's the cost for the glass.
Ouch, this isn't enough. It's ridiculous.
I’ve lost so much,
and you're giving me just this?
Shin.
What the hell are you doing?
So we can leave now, right?
Don't set foot in my store again,
you little thieves!
If you say another word about my friend,
I’ll call the police on you
for selling cigarettes to kids.
Saint, let’s go.
You little brat.
Come on.
Hey, Shin.
Why did you pay for me?
Damn, just this once.
What the hell is wrong with you?
I’m just joking.
I’m just joking.
Well, you broke the glass,
so what do you expect me to do?
That’s all my savings.
I was so close to getting new soccer cleats.
And did I ask you to pay for it?
Do you think I can’t pay for myself?
So you can owe me a favor.
For what?
Haha.
Wait.
Why do you have to protect me?
Well, I was born before you,
so I’m older by several months.
I have to be your big brother,
and big brothers protect their little siblings.
Dude, no way, that gives me the creeps.
Hey.
I don't want you to be my big brother.
Then what do you want me to be?
Your boss?
Umm.
Okay, I guess I can let you be my boss.
But just for one person.
I’ll allow it just for you.
Then call me 'brother, ' you little one.
And say “Thank you, brother Shin.” as well.
Haha.
Thank you.
Thank you, brother Shin.
Good job, little brother.
That’s how it should be.
Hey, you’re cute too.
Good job, little brother. You’re the best…
Ouch.
That’s enough from you.
Hey.
Ouch.
Come here.
You little one.
I’ll bite your ear off.
Sure, boss.
What now?
You admit that I’m your boss, right?
From now on, don’t ditch me, okay?
Yeah, I got it.
That’s how it should be, little brother.
Today, you’re treating me to noodles.
Sure.
Tell your dad to give me a lot.
I know I can't change the past.
I just played soccer.
I might get a cramp.
I don't believe you.
You're lying again this time, aren't you?
- No, I’m not.
- Even if I have to follow you around
for the rest of my life,
it’s still better
than having to walk away from you again.
If that day hadn’t happened,
if I hadn’t done
all that messed-up stuff to you
what would things be like between us?
Would we still be best friends like before?
Shin, you jerk.
We would probably still eat together.
You’re shameless.
Ride motorcycles.
Why the hell do you do that?
It annoys others.
What a stupid question.
I do it so they know the Tsunami is here.
I'm really fed up with you.
Go. Just go, damn it.
Play football together.
Hey. Hey.
Damn, that was so great.
- My friend did it.
- I really miss those times
when you were by my side.
The most important thing that I’m giving up.
It’s not school.
It’s you, Shin.
I’m giving up on the chance
to be with you.
Hello, Mr. Chai.
- Hello, teacher.
- Hello.
I’m here to process
my son’s withdrawal from school.
Alright.
Want to say goodbye to your friends, Saint?
I don’t think that’s necessary.
But I already told them
you’d be saying goodbye.
It’s really okay.
Come on, you’re already in your uniform.
Go say a quick goodbye to them.
See your friends.
Say goodbye to Miss Jan at least.
They’re over at the gym.
Come on, Saint.
Just go say goodbye.
Alright.
How did you end up here?
I came with my dad
to sign the resignation letter.
Where is everyone?
What are you talking about?
Well…
Mr.Sung told me to say bye to everyone.
Where is everyone?
It's just me.
There’s no one else here.
Then why did you come here?
Chadjen told me to come here.
Sigh.
Guess I’ve been tricked.
What do you mean?
I mean both of us got tricked.
Do you really think Mr.Sung’s plan will work?
We’ve come this far, Miss Jan.
We’ve got to see it through.
Tricked? What are you talking about?
I can’t keep up.
Sigh.
It means he tricked me into coming here
to make up with you.
Sigh.
Are you really here to make up with me?
Don’t be ridiculous.
I don’t do that…
Hey.
Chadjen.
Open the door.
Open the door.
Chadjen, open the door.
Hey.
Sigh.
Alright, let’s do it.
Hey Saint, wanna have a competition?
What kind of competition?
Rock-paper-scissors.
What?
For what?
Come on, just play.
I’ll tell you why after we get a result.
Come on.
What?
Rock-paper-scissors.
Let’s go again.
Scissors.
Hey.
Scissors.
Hey, why did you copy me?
How was I supposed to know
we’d choose the same thing?
Ugh, fine.
I’ll pick rock, and you go with paper.
Ready?"
Huh? What’s the point of this then?
Come on, just do as I say.
Rock, paper, scissors.
Hey, why didn’t you pick paper?
Why would I?
I didn’t want to win against you.
So I have an excuse to make up with you.
Come on. Rock, paper…
Wait…
are you trying to get me back to school?
Ahem.
Then just say it.
I’m not here to ask.
I order you.
Alright, tell me then.
Sigh.
I hate that you used me
as an excuse to quit school.
Hey, you’re not an excuse.
If I’m not, then what is it?
Do you really think
quitting will solve everything?
No, that’s not it.
You say you’re giving up what’s important,
and that means you’re giving up on me.
But you know what?
You gave up on me a long time ago.
Three years ago, when you broke my leg.
So, you don’t get to leave me behind again.
Well… if I come back,
will you stay in school, too?
Yeah, I’ll stay.
Alright.
If you’re here, then I’ll come back.
Sigh.
The plan worked after all.
Yay.
Even if it was a strange way of making up.
Who said we made up?
Chadjen,
now you’re brave enough to trick me?
Uh, it’s not like that. I didn’t trick you.
Get over here.
Wait.
Shin, calm down.
Cable.
Chadjen.
Chadjen, come here.
Saint, please.
Shin, calm down.
It is Mr. Sung and Miss Jan's plan, not mine.
Don’t even try to explain.
You had the nerve to trick me.
I didn't trick you.
Saint, please.
Get over here.
Calm down, Chin.
Calm down.
Don't tease him.
Chadjen.
Ouch.
Ouch.
Messing with me, huh?
Shin, please.
Cable, tell him, please.
Where do you think you’re going?
Ouch.
Are you hiding behind a girl, Chadjen?
Come here.
Shin.
Shin’s always like this when he’s mad.
Shin, calm down.
Hey, help me out here.
Cable, tell him, please.
Thank you so much
for trusting me and Miss Jan.
Oh, I should be the one thanking both of you
for taking such good care of my son.
Please don’t worry, sir.
I’ll make sure to look after Saint
as best as I can.
Thank you very much.
Alright then.
Take care.
Goodbye.
Goodbye.
Goodbye.
This situation has really changed
the way I see you.
I didn’t expect you to care this much
about the kids.
You even went to see Saint
at the gas station, too.
Oh really?
But I still see you the same way.
Same way? How so?
You’re too idealistic.
Are you messing with me?
I’m not sure either.
Smartass.
Bye bye.
Shin, can you buy me snacks?
No way.
Why so?
Someone will treat you today.
Saint.
I’ll buy you snacks today.
Great. I’ll eat till I burst.
Oh, that’s too much, girl.
We need to celebrate that
you successfully made up with Saint.
I didn’t do that.
You’re in denial. Boohoo.
You cannot eat anymore.
Let’s eat.
I want to treat you.
What do you want, Chingching?
I want tamago sushi.
Is that considered as a snack, huh?
Boohoo.
You’ll be punished.
Should we go now?
Let’s go.
Wait.
What’s wrong?
I want to be clear about our relationship.
What do you mean?
You and I are not friends, still.
Not friends? Then what is us?
Just classmates.
Um, alright.
No matter what you want me to be,
I will be that.
Come on.
Let’s have some sushi.
Yay.
After sushi, what should we have next?
Ice cream.
Oh, you want ice cream again?
Your teeth are going to rot away.
Boohoo.
Well, show me your teeth.
Oh, there’s nothing wrong.
Don’t act like that. Just don’t
Her teeth are just perfect.
Oh, this color suits you well, Peeta.
Why did you color my locker?
How did you let this kind of incident
happened again?
Where did you get the exam leak?
Who stole the exam paper?
That means your exam is leaked.
It must be someone from Class 2
who stole my exam paper.
She said no so it’s a no.
Wanna fight me?
Shin.
You’re Udon Pithak?
Yeah.
If you want to challenge me, just do so.
Guys, get them.
