05x07 - Chance Encounter

[bunniefuu]

Appa, why do you charge more for ruffled chips?

Because these are better.

How?

Same taste, same flavour.

The only difference is these are ruffled and a dollar more.

Ruffled chip is working harder.

More impressive!

People like chip that make effort.

It's the taste that matters.

Okay.

Say a handsome, lonely man come in looking for chip.

He see a clean chip that think it's too cool.

Don't have to try.

Then, what's this?

(GASPING)

- Ruffled chip?

- Ooh.

Wow, so fancy!

Some people prefer plain chips.

They're making an effort too.

They're just not desperate for attention.

We are not saying desperate.

Just saying it would be nice if a plain chip can find someone who want to buy and take away from store.

APPA: Otherwise just stay on a shelf and get stale and old and expire.

If plain chips want to go anywhere, they don't need someone to buy them.

They can take care of themselves.

With what money, huh?

I think she get the message.

Hmm.

What message?

♪ Oh.

Whoa.

- What you doing?

- Oh my God!

Umma, you scared me!

Why you making a mess?

I found an envelope of money!

Oh!

How much?

(WHISPERING)

$ .

Why are you whispering?

You gonna steal?

No, I was just counting it.

Good.

Then, uh, we call police.

- JANET: Or...

- We tell your Appa.

Or...

Why don't you just finish sentence?

- -hour rule.

- Hmm?

You know, like in a crime show.

You get hours before the trail goes cold.

Then you call off the search.

I still think we should call police.

Think of the poor little old lady who might be looking for her envelope.

And when she comes back... it's gone.

Okay.

I put money in cash box for little old lady.

Then in hours you and I can split it.

Or donate it.

Or call the police, whichever.

Don't tell Appa!

(SIRENS WAILING NEARBY)

Okay, what are we feelin' tonight?

Action/adventure, docuseries, cartoon drama?

Maybe not that one.

Oh, snap!

Episode four of Swords of the Realm is out!

Oh, we can watch that!

I saw the main sword guy make shortbread on Rachael Ray. It's kinda confusing if you're not caught up.

Uh, trust me, I'm a quick study.

I started Fast and the Furious at movie five and I totally got it.

Ooh, very well.

To the borderlands of Takarsus we go.

(CHUCKLING)

(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING, SWORDS CLASHING)

(ROARING)

Quick question, who's the Dragon Princess?

Oh, she's a new character.

I'm sure they'll explain it.

Is the woman with the peg-leg talking about the king?

Is he the old guy in the tower?

- Uh, no, that Manacles.

- Oh.

How do you spell that?

I don't know.

Probably how it sounds.

The Elf Whisperer totally looks like our server from Earl's.

(HORSE WHINNYING)

Aw, we should go horseback riding sometime.

Yeah!

(BLADES CLANGING, SCREAMING)

(GASPING)

They k*lled Manacles?

It's not Manacles.

Oh, right.

That was Earl's server.

Must be uncomfortable to lie on all those spikes.

(MAN SHOUTING IN PAIN)

Okay.

So, baking soda, Diet Coke, and hotdog.

No meat this week.

Hotdog is not real meat.

Okay, fine.

Tasteless vegetable dressed as hotdog, one.

Yobo?

Did you... lose some money?

No.

Okay.

So long as you're sure.

(SIGHING)

Okay, but I have a can't-lose hand!

Pocket ace!

What?!

I go all in to intimidate.

That's the right play.

But then Mr. Mehta call and he get a flush on river card!

Who get a flush on river card?!

So you lose money at the poker game?

Yeah.

But that's only money you lose?

Okay.

But Mr. Chin, he's in a sand trap, and I have a can't-lose putt!

Why you lose so much money and you don't tell to me?

Hmm?

Your money is my money.

You owe Mr. Chin $ .

(CHUCKLING)

Sorry.

"We".

We owe Mr. Chin.

(ZOOMING NOISES)

My only cousin is Death!

(CLASHING NOISE)

What?

Dude!

You didn't watch episode four last night?

Oh... technically yes.

When Princess Madora gives birth to the snake child!

See, I missed that part because we were too busy weighing the pros and cons of epidurals.

- Okay?

- Or was it the snake pit that Shannon saw on a trip to Manitoba when she was ten?

It's all a blur.

I see what happenin'.

Sally Soundtrack.

Gwen was the same way when we started watching - Nebulon together.

- So what'd you do?

She loved the series The Brokerage so I sat down and watched it with her and I asked a lot of questions because I was "so confused"!

That show is very confusing.

Not really.

But she realized how irritating it was and stopped asking questions during Swords of the Realm. That's brilliant!

You're like a real-world Manacles!

Speaking of which, I'm getting take-out.

Dost thou require mutton and mead?

You wish to feast when the horsemen of Griff are at our very doorstep!

Yeah, you gotta watch episode four.

Seriously, you want anything?

Nah, I'm good.

Thank you.

Oh!

Hi.

Hey, Ajushee.

What's up?

Oh, just uh, lunch time.

Yeah.

What you doing?

Oh, uh, pork bone soup.

Yeah, nothing like a gamjatang.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I just start.

You can join?

You sure?

I don't wanna...

Sit.

What you talking?

Okay.

Oh.

Sorry.

I was gonna take it out, but then I met my friend.

(CHUCKLING)

Yeah.

Don't tell Mrs.

Kim you see me here, huh?

We watch a documentary about meat, and I promise no eating meat for whole week.

And this was?

Yesterday.

(LAUGHING)

Yeah.

So, how is, uh...

- Gwen.

- Mm.

She's great.

I mean, sure, there's an adjustment period, living together.

Ah, me and Mrs.

Kim still adjusting.

- (CHUCKLING)

- Yeah.

What your rush, huh?

You young.

I rush in before I ready.

Now look at me.

(LAUGHING)

Here.

(SPEAKING IN KOREAN)

UMMA: Are you sure you don't lose any money?

Oh, I think I'd remember.

You is old, so maybe not.

(SHOP BELL TINKLING OVER DOOR)

Anyone come for the money?

No, and I ask everybody, but no one have any idea.

Wait.

You're just telling people you found an envelope full of money?

- Yeah.

- You can't do that!

But we did!

But they'll lie and say it's theirs.

- But they didn't.

- Umma, how can you be so naive?

People are gonna take advantage of you!

Janet, I know when people are lying.

They giggle, cross arm, and don't make eye contact.

Excuse me.

- Oh.

Hi.

- Hi, hi.

Couldn't help overhear something about an envelope and money.

- Yeah.

- (SIGHING)

I thought I left it on the subway, but I just remembered I was in here a few days ago.

Really?

I don't remember that.

I don't think either one of you were working that day.

Oh.

Okay.

And do you remember where in the store you left it?

I don't.

Like I said, it was about a week ago.

You said a few days ago.

Did I?

You did.

JANET: Sorry.

How much money was in the envelope?

Oh.

Good question.

Around ?

Umma!

No, it was, uh, ?

Oh.

I'm so sorry.

What?

I believe you, it's just...

someone came in earlier and said it was their money.

We fell for it.

So sneaky.

That is unfortunate.

People these days.

Sorry.

It's okay.

It's not your fault.

Thanks.

(SHOP BELL TINKLING)

Oh, I can't believe it!

I know, right?

Yeah, both of you is lying but nobody giggle or cross arm!

Hey!

How was lunch?

- Yeah!

Good.

You?

- Good.

Terence and I split a pizza.

And then we ate it.

And I wrote a ton of questions about Shannon's show.

But you haven't seen it yet.

Right.

Guess these won't work.

So, here's something funny.

I was getting take-out, your dad was at the restaurant.

We kinda had lunch together.

Oh.

That's weird.

Totally!

And so boring!

I was like, "Get me outta here!" Yikes!

Just bad.

He's not that bad.

Well, no.

Not that bad, but still kinda bad, but bad in a good way, but also bad in a bad way.

Like John Wick. Anyway, just thought you should know.

Why?

It's not like you guys are friends or anything.

No!

Exactly.

♪ A new episode of Swords of the Realm just dropped.

What do you think?

Or we could do one of your shows, switch it up a little bit?

Well, I am loving this one from Ireland right now, Kilkenny Girls, but I don't really know if it's your thing.

(IN IRISH ACCENT)

I tink we should do it.

(IN IRISH ACCENT)

Alrighty then!

(THEME SONG PLAYING)

♪ Why you creeping Kimchee?

Not creeping.

Just looking and liking and laughing!

- That's creeping.

- You creeping!

So, when you two going on date?

Pfft!

If you like him, you should ask him to hang out.

Guys don't ask other guy to hang out.

Girl do that, but for guy, have to be, uh, chance encounter.

So, what you think?

I think Kimchee gonna see Parasite movie tomorrow.

No, Yobo.

This!

Like, and laugh.

I just think if you were gonna ride a broom, you'd sit on the widest part.

But it's not a real thing!

No, but why not make it realistic?

- Whoa!

- JANET: What?

Oh!

No, are you serious?

Don't freak out.

I'll split it with you.

Either one of us could've found it.

No, a customer came in earlier.

I thought she was scamming us but I must have dropped that.

Nice try.

It's not for me.

I swear, it's for the customer.

Honestly!

Okay.

But I regret offering to split it with you.

Whatever.

WOMAN IN MOVIE: Have you ever seen one of these before? MAN: Only in my dreams. Sorry, I have a question.

Who's that again?

Jenna.

And who's that guy?

Callum.

And how did Callum and Jenna get together?

(PAUSING VIDEO)

I am so glad you asked.

It is the most amazing backstory.

Oh.

So, Callum steps on a farrier's nail and gets lockjaw and couldn't speak for months, and Jenna teaches poetry at the local prison, so, Margaret's mother...

Well, no.

Not her mother, because in episode three we learned the babies were switched on the train.

You have to see that scene.

- No, it's fine.

- Oh, wait.

This is the pub where Callum first sees Jenna, and this is the pub in real life.

You will never guess who was m*rder*d in there.

Like on the show?

No.

In real life.

The goat farmer Callum's father was based on.

(GASPING)

Oh my God.

You have to see him dance!

(IRISH MUSIC PLAYING IN VIDEO)

Hey, Jung, can you help me with, um...

everything?

(DRAMATIC TV MUSIC PLAYING ON PHONE)

Oh, sorry.

It's just that I got stuck watching Kilkenny Girls for three hours last night. Tell me about it.

I had to watch the Morgan triplets while their mom went to "the store".

No, the show that Shannon talked through.

Again.

And I don't even like it and it's still annoying.

Ah.

Is that true?

Hey!

I only talked so much to answer your many questions.

I was just trying to make a point.

What point?

Terence, do you mind?

No, go ahead.

I was maybe trying to suggest that too many questions can be frustrating when you're trying to watch a show.

And you did that by pretending to care about a show that I like while I was genuinely interested in yours?

No!

I mean, I tried but it didn't work.

(SIGHING)

Look, all I'm saying is we don't have to do everything together.

You know, or watch the same shows.

No, we don't.

I guess I just thought for a moment that you really liked Kilkenny Girls and that we found a show that we could watch together like other couples but I guess I was wrong.

Call me a Jenna for trying.

(SIGHING)

Let me guess.

You wanna take your break now.

(CLEARING THROAT)

Hey!

Ajushee, what are you doing here?

Oh!

Kimchee!

What, you here too?

Yeah.

Wow!

What are the odds?

Definitely chance encounter.

Cool jacket and hat!

Oh, just old stuff, huh?

Yeah.

What you doing now?

Maybe go for a drink?

Ah, I'd love to, but I'm here with, uh...

Jung?

- Gwen.

- Oh!

Good.

I mean, it's good if Jung is here too.

Screw it.

I just used the men's room.

Uh, Gwen, this is Jung's dad, Mr. Kim.

Hi, nice to meet you.

GWEN: Oh, hey!

Kimchee wouldn't stop talking about your lunch.

Mr. Kim this, Mr. Kim that.

Nah!

You two should hang out more!

Ah, yeah.

Maybe if a chance encounter happen again.

(CHUCKLING)

- What about now?

- Maybe, but, uh...

KIMCHEE: We're meeting friends for dinner.

They're my friends.

Go, have fun!

You sure?

It's nice meeting you, Mr. Kim.

Thank you, Gwen.

Nice meeting you too!

Okay, thanks.

Well, Ajushee, looks like it's just the two of us.

Okay!

Let's do this Ajushee style, huh?

(LAUGHING)

(IRISH MUSIC PLAYING)

JUNG: Hey!

Uh, Shannon around?

At the gym.

Said she needed to "row one out"?

Oh, that's not good.

She's been raving about this show.

Not sure I get it.

See, that guy, Brian, is not supposed to show his face around Callum's pub.

Why not?

He cheated on Callum's sister.

Which one's Callum's sister?

All of them?

Oh.

I'm surprised to see you again.

Yeah, you know, it was a lot of money but it's fine.

You were just trying to do the right thing.

I thought we could just move on, you know?

How kind of you.

Plus, I love cookies.

You know what I love?

Honesty.

Okay?

Uh, you know I'm trying to be the bigger person here, right?

Oh, you trying to be bigger person.

You lucky I don't ban you from store.

Ban me?

For what?

I might be naive, but better a little bit naive than big liar.

You gave my money away.

Why am I a liar?

Oh, "I come a few days ago." "Oh wait, no!

I come a week ago." Okay, a few days can be three or four days and a week is like five...

Why am I even explaining myself?

And then you say you lose .

- "Oh, wait, no, !" - It was !

See?

Your story keep changing.

My daughter raised that money for a heart and stroke Skip-a-thon.

Skip-a-thon.

Huh.

I never heard of.

I'm starting to wonder if you really did give the money away.

Oh, no.

But Gwen was sitting on my left.

Oh, so you eating stranger popcorn?

And they never even noticed!

(LAUGHING)

There's a good place just up here.

Oh, the one with Ms.

Pac-Man!

- Yeah!

- Oh, no.

He look like Jung.

Maybe, uh, we do this other time.

Don't want to overdo.

No, it's not that.

It's just, you know...

- He say something?

- No!

It's just... a sensitive area, you know?

Yeah.

Jung has lots of sensitive area.

Heh.

I gotta show you this funny cheese wheel video.

I'll send it tomorrow.

Hm.

Gwen is a nice girl.

Yeah.

She is.

Goodnight, Kimchee.

Goodnight, Ajushee.

Fine.

I don't wanna be here anyway.

Pfft!

Stop!

I mean, wait.

Please.

I'm so sorry.

Umma, Gerald found a $ bill.

I was gonna tell you.

It must have fallen out when I dropped the envelope.

My envelope?

Making the total $ .

Ding-ding!

Ding.

UMMA: Oh!

Okay, well, is better than nothing.

It's all in the envelope.

So, wait, you have the envelope?

Mm-hm.

(CLEARING THROAT)

It's gone!

We don't have envelope!

Am I in danger?

- No.

- (SHOP BELL TINKLING)

Where is it?

Ladies.

I gonna get you your money.

So, you do have it.

We're really sorry about all of this.

$ , very sorry.

Thank you for admitting your mistake.

The Skip-a-thon organizers will definitely appreciate it.

Can we get a tax receipt?

You didn't actually donate anything.

Oh.

That's right.

But you could.

Ah, that's okay.

Maybe other time.

I mean, yes, of course.

Yes.

Good idea.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYING FROM LAPTOP)

I'm fine, you guys don't need to pretend...

No, sorry, just...

He never got to say it.

I was so wrong.

We both overreacted.

No, about the show.

It's amazing!

That's nice, but...

When Clara reads the back of the letter?

Forget about it.

When Finnegan declares his love for Seamus right after Kayleigh dies...

What, Kayleigh dies?

I'm only on episode eight!

Oh.

Is that the one where the midwife drowns?

What?!

No, stop saying things!

Don't worry, she faked it!

Stop it!

It says if we liked Kilkenny Girls we might enjoy Dublin Dog Detectives?

Fire it up.

But cash box money for everyone to share.

That's why Janet's sharing your bomber jacket now.

Hmph.

So, how was your date with Kimchee?

You get lucky?

You know, Kimchee's just like me.

So fun.

We getting along easy.

So, should I be worried?

Hmm.

And uh, me and you, we just different.

But we getting along too.

Why so hard for me and Jung?

(SIGHING)

We don't always get along.

But uh, with time and effort, we learn how to communicate.

Maybe you and Jung need time to learn.

Hmm.

Agh.

Hm!

Hey.

That's my hat.

Looks better on me.

Oh.

Yeah, you know what look better on you?

What?

(LAUGHING)

Oh!

Careful of hat!

Ah, Yobo!

(SPEAKING KOREAN)

- Oh, hi.

- Oh.

Hey, Appa.

Um, pick up for Jung Kim?

You know, Kimchee's been raving about the gamjatang here ever since the two of you had lunch.

Oh.

Oh!

I get for you.

Oh no, it's okay.

Oh no, Jung, it's my treat.

I'm working.

I can get this.

I get it.

(MACHINE BEEPS)

Thanks.

Well, I should probably head'er.

Unless...

Uh...

Takeout is for taking out.

So please, take out.

Yeah, yeah, I got a lot to do anyway.

Yeah, me too.
