04:20Yeah. I should go and clean that first.
04:22Don't leave a mistake.
04:23Thanks again, babe. Stay right there.
04:31I also made you this.
04:47It's a work in progress.
04:51So, for now, there's only one.
04:52But over the next few months, I'll do up more pages.
04:55I thought it would be nice for you to have this.
04:57Your mum's recipes,
04:58since you're always raving about her cooking.
05:04This is so sweet. Thank you, babe.

05:13I'm sorry for ignoring you that night.
05:15I'm sorry for blindsiding you with the new job.
05:17That's okay.
05:18We just have to be on the same team from now on, okay?
05:20No matter what happens with my dad, my uncle, your mum,
05:24we are a unit.
05:25Can we not be a unit?
05:26Why?
05:27It just sounds weird, you know?
05:28Like, you say...
05:29Unit.
05:30Unit.
05:31Okay, what?
05:32Unit.
05:33Unit.

05:40Okay, okay.
05:41So, we can be on the same tandem bike.

05:51Marcel,
05:52I'm really worried you will resent me for the job.
05:55Why, babe?
05:56It's my decision.
05:58Okay.
05:59Okay?
06:00Okay.
06:01Let's listen to some nightmare feel.
06:03Chill, this one's not that bad.
06:04Didn't you say it was about dead bodies and barrels?
06:06Yeah.
06:07Not that bad, what?
06:11Hey, hey!
06:12Oh my god!
06:13It's too close!
06:14It's too close!
06:15It's too close!
06:16Hey!
06:17Not the bowling pin!
06:18This one's on the kitchen bed.
06:19I don't want to use this.
06:21I don't want to see it with the knife again.
06:23I don't want to make chapati with this.
06:24Don't put it in the bed.
06:25Don't put it in the bed.
06:39So, my working hours are mostly flexible?
06:42Of course.
06:43You're coming on board as a high-level manager.
06:45Not some rank and file trooper.
06:46Right, trooper?
06:47Yes, Mr Chiu.
06:50Mr Balakrishnan?
06:51For senior managers, there's usually no policing of working hours.
06:55There are the official hours where everyone else will be in.
06:58But for you, it's mostly like...
07:00On time, on target!
07:02Carry on!
07:04Silver, you're no longer a teacher.
07:06So, no need to follow school rules.
07:08You just have to make sure the partners are happy.
07:10Because they're happy, I'm happy.
07:12I'm happy.
07:13I'm happy.
07:14You're happy.
07:15You're happy.
07:16You copy?
07:17I copy.
07:18Thanks so much, Mr Chiu.
07:19Hey!
07:20Call me Vincent.
07:21Cheng Haitong is a family-run business.
07:22And you are going to be family very soon.
07:24Huh?
07:25Yeah.
07:262028?
07:27Yep.
07:28Wedding ceremony?
07:29Shangri-la!
07:32Mr Balakrishnan, I also need you to sign here and then
07:35countersign on every page here.
07:39I figured this would have been done all online, you know?
07:41With e-signatures and whatnot.
07:43We are an old-fashioned company.
07:45I hope you understand that.
07:46But I know what my brother means when he says that
07:49young people nowadays, huh?
07:51Oh, no.
07:52No, no, no, no.
07:53I don't mean it like that at all.
07:54Mr Chiv...
07:55Uncle...
07:56Vincent.
07:57Vincent.
07:58In fact, I'm glad that we're doing this in person.
08:01You know?
08:02If we did this online, it would be impersonal.
08:05No cold.
08:06It's how the other companies would have done it.
08:15You know, Silva.
08:16I'm very glad that you're taking on this role.
08:19Oh.
08:20Reassuring to know that family-run business...
08:22is handled by family.
08:24You know?
08:25You can trust me, Vincent.
08:26I'll make sure that Tseng Haitong Manufacturing will dominate.
08:29Good!
08:30We will reclaim all of the market share.
08:33That's what I want to hear.
08:34I will make sure our share prices are higher than Teslas!
08:38Or even apples!
08:40Actually, Mr Balakrishnan, our company is not listed.
08:43Then I'll make sure this company gets listed!
08:45I love that!
08:48I will also need you to sign this.
08:53Official signatory for Tseng Haitong?
08:55This is...
08:56You are going to need that for your work.
08:57Confirm!
08:58You do know that this is a significant position in the firm, right?
09:02In fact, Barry here thought that he was going to be promoted.
09:04Can you believe that?
09:05Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
09:09Mr Balakrishnan, we will also need photocopies of your IC front-end bed.
09:14This...
09:15This is a big deal!
09:16Are you sure?
09:17We have quite a few subsidiaries.
09:19And I am thinking of grooming you for leadership.
09:21If not, what?
09:22Leave it to Nat?
09:24Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
09:25Yeah! Right!
09:26We are family!
09:28You are not going to embezzle my company's money or anything, right?
09:30No!
09:31Of course not!
09:32Ha-ha!
09:33What did you do to pamper my knees?
09:35I will close one eye.
09:37No, this one.
09:47I am so funny.
09:49You are very funny, Mr Chiu.
10:03Jay!
10:05Yeah.
10:23I'm leaving in two weeks.
10:25What?
10:26Why?
10:27I decided to start earlier, midterm.
10:30Why?
10:32Why cannot?
10:33Why did you change your plans?
10:34I didn't know what I was waiting for.
10:35Two weeks is damn fast, yeah?
10:37Everything is fast.
10:40I'm sorry I haven't made time for you.
10:43Just the move has been hectic and then there was work and stuff with Cell.
10:49What? Am I not allowed to talk about Cell?
10:51No. Of course you can.
10:54I've been busy.
10:55We were supposed to be sisters for life.
10:57What? We are sisters for life.
10:58Sisters who don't hang out?
10:59We do hang out, though.
11:00Well, we can't when I'm in Berlin.
11:02You were supposed to go with me.
11:03When?
11:04In JCA.
11:05We said we'd go to Europe together and be starving artists and make feminist art with our period blood.
11:09I do not remember that.
11:11You wanted to go to Prague.
11:12I do remember my Prague place.
11:14But why don't you want to come back?
11:16I don't like it here. You know that.
11:18Do you still feel like your creativity is being stifled? Even now?
11:22When I was teenager, I wanted to design magazines, jewelry and whatnot.
11:26Not manage the social media page of a nasi padang store.
11:29Why can't you do that here?
11:30Opportunity is scarce.
11:31But what makes you think there will be opportunity there?
11:34For a foreigner, no less?
11:35There is. The scene there is thriving.
11:37But the grass is always greener on the other side.
11:39Well, at least on that grass, I'm not just a productive digit.
11:42Sure, you'll be.
11:43Like, even for your master's, you're just a minority quota.
11:47Sorry.
11:48No.
11:49It's fine. You're right.
11:50And I'm banking on that.
11:52I'm banking on all that colonial guilt that thrived there.
11:54Don't you think that a part of you is idealising life there?
11:57No.
11:58There will be less humidity and I have more space to breathe.
12:00But why won't you miss it here?
12:02Home, chicken rice, prata.
12:05What are you talking about?
12:06So, food.
12:07And us.
12:08And us.
12:09Me.
12:14I'll miss you.
12:15I'll miss you too.
12:17But we'll miss each other even if I was here, right?
12:20I mean, now we meet what?
12:21Once every few weeks?
12:22And then once you get married, it'll be once every few months.
12:25And then once you move in and have kids, it'll be once a year.
12:28Life goes on.
12:29Friends is a lie.
12:30Friends is a lie?
12:31Oh, the show.
12:32Like, people don't hang out all the time, forever.
12:35People move on.
12:36That's not true.
12:37It was supposed to be my kid's godmah.
12:39On one condition.
12:40I'm not naming my kid Doofenshmirtz.
12:42Doofenshmirtz Evil Incorporated, Balakrishnan.
12:45I think Phineas still better.
12:46Ew.
12:47Your child sounds like a nerd.
12:48You then nerd.
12:49You then nerd.
12:50You then nerd.
12:51You then nerd.
12:52Oi.
12:53Hey, hey, hey.
12:54Sorry.
12:55Hey, Ricky, they're ugly.
12:57Stop.
12:58Itch.
12:59Itch.
13:00Wah.
13:01Excuse me.
13:02Bless you, Xiao.
13:03Oh my god.
13:13Lake.
13:14Charlene.
13:15You know, Daddy, you said I always talk about Xiao.
13:18Is that true?
13:19Well, I was irritated, but you do talk about him often.
13:23But he's the love of your life, so...
13:25Wanting to talk about him isn't necessarily a bad thing.
13:28Hmm.
13:29But do you think I've changed?
13:31Haven't we all?
13:33I mean, his being with Xiao changed me.
13:36Well, you're more wifey now.
13:38Wifey?
13:39More practical?
13:40Less reckless?
13:41Those sound like good changes to me.
13:43Yeah.
13:44What?
13:45What?
13:46That yeah was sus.
13:47You used to be crazy.
13:49I'm still crazy.
13:50Eh.
13:51No, like, you used to collect people's body hair for your FYP,
13:54and scream at aunties who looked at me for the way I dressed.
13:57You were not just crazy, you know, you were unhinged.
13:59But I also was just young.
14:00I just feel like you and Selva have melded together over the years.
14:04Melded?
14:05Yeah, the two of you have melded together.
14:07Ew.
14:08Yeah, you're telling me.
14:09Okay, you've been together for like what, ten years?
14:12Six.
14:13Yeah, but I just feel like you've absorbed more of him than he has of you.
14:17Right.
14:18You know, I've always said Sel is good for you, right?
14:20Mm-hmm.
14:21It just feels like Sel is like a tree, okay?
14:25He keeps you grounded and he keeps you rooted.
14:27But I just feel like over time, his shade has kind of dulled your spark a little.
14:33You know?
14:34Right.
14:36I find you're crazy again.
14:39Hey!
14:40Is this crazy enough for you?
14:41I did not mean crazy.
14:42Okay, okay, okay, fine.
14:43She's crazy!
14:45Hey!
14:46You're making my agi again!
14:47No, I'm not agi.
14:48I was making it better.
14:49Okay, stop, stop.
14:51You always suck it.
14:52Okay, okay, okay, okay.
14:53One more.
14:54Who is the king of the pencil case?
15:07The pencil?
15:08The ruler.
15:09Really, thank you so much for laughing at these.
15:10It really does wonders for my self-confidence.
15:11Oh, you're hilarious!
15:12It's really not!
15:13It's funny!
15:14No.
15:15No.
15:16No.
15:17No.
15:18It's funny!
15:19No.
15:20No.
15:21No.
15:22Che, was I really rude yesterday?
15:23A little bit.
15:24I'm sorry.
15:25That's okay.
15:26So, how was your mock?
15:27Well, I failed.
15:28I got 48.
15:2948?
15:30Wow, good job, Eva!
15:31What?
15:32Really?
15:33That's really good.
15:3448?
15:35Really?
15:36Really not!
15:37You're funny!
15:38No.
15:39Um...
15:40Che, was I really rude yesterday?
15:41A little bit.
15:42I'm sorry.
15:43That's okay.
15:44So, how was your mock?
15:45Well, um...
15:46I failed.
15:47I got 48.
15:4848?
15:49Mm-hmm.
15:50Wow!
15:51Good job, Eva!
15:52What?
15:53Really?
15:54That's really good.
15:5548?
15:56Last sem, you were scoring, what?
15:58Closer to 20s?
15:59Mm-hmm.
16:00And now, you got 48.
16:01That's a substantial improvement.
16:03You know?
16:04You should be proud.
16:05But now, that means you got to keep working at it.
16:08Next, you can aim to pass.
16:09And after that, when you get to your O's,
16:11you can aim for around 60s.
16:13Thanks, Che.
16:14You are a damn good teacher.
16:16Language.
16:17You are a very good teacher.
16:21I didn't do anything.
16:22This was all you.
16:23No, as in like...
16:24You know, even though I failed, you still encouraged me.
16:27Like, my teacher scolded me.
16:29And I don't even know if my dad cares if I passed or not.
16:33But, you know, you care.
16:35And you make me feel...
16:37Worthy.
16:38You know?
16:39I see you try.
16:40You come here every day.
16:42That's enough for me.
16:43Yeah, I try, but I still fail.
16:45Well, for as long as you live, you have infinite chances.
16:50Wait, is it from one piece?
16:52Luffy?
16:53Spot on.
16:54Okay.
16:55I have some homework to finish up, so...
16:58No worries.
16:59Just shout if you need anything.
17:00Alright.
17:01But what if you hate it?
17:24I'm gonna treat it like it's work.
17:26You know, it's work.
17:27It's necessary so that I can focus on the other parts of life.
17:30No, no, no.
17:31Well, what if you hate it?
17:32Okay, well, I hate you.
17:35Okay, sorry, sorry.
17:36You'll like it.
17:37I'll tolerate it.
17:38Yeah.
17:39What do you have to do again?
17:40Acquiring assets and managing accounts.
17:43Hmm.
17:44Sounds math-y.
17:45So, it's you.
17:46You know, even though I'm a maths teacher...
17:47I suck at maths.
17:48Yeah, that doesn't matter.
17:49You have a wonderful heart.
17:51Though, why do you have to stop at the centre?
