04x11 - Birds of a Feather

[bunniefuu]

[Door chimes]

Frank: Mr. Kim.

Appa: Very busy, Frank.

What would you say if I told you I had two tickets to tonight's Jays' game, club seats, private access, and I'd like you to be my guest?

I say, yeah.

Yeah!

100 time, yeah!

[Laughs]

I hope Bernice has the same reaction.

You taking your ex-wife to game?

Oh, she loves baseball.

If I have any kind of a sh*t against Garry, this just might be the "tickets", so to speak.

[Chuckles]

Yeah, these are nice, but...

is this...

most healthy choice for you, Frank?

Didn't she sleep with your best friend?

In fairness, I was out of town that night.

[Sighs]

And...

didn't you say she steal all your tool from your repair shop?

Just 100 more reasons to get her back, Frank.

I know you a long time, hmm?

Such a very good, old friend.

Maybe even best friend.

I'm flattered, but that title is reserved for the man, who slept with my wife.

I just think you better off without her.

For so many reason.

If we have three hours, sit side by side, I tell you all about.

It's a date.

I'll just give these to Bernice and Garry.

You come by my place.

We'll have the whole night to catch up.

Frank, no.

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.

As I said to Garry, when I was helping him move his stuff in, "It's my pleasure." Please, don't.

[Doorbell chimes]

I'll message you.

[Theme music playing]

♪ Then I have too much wine ♪ ♪ Somehow a way...

♪ Who is this again?

Myya.

She's amazing.

I'm trying to convince Ger-bear, to go to Blow Out Fest to see her.

Cool.

When's that?

July.

Oh, my God!

You should come.

We can micro-dose and wear sun hats every day.

Yeah, maybe.

I'm kinda thinking bigger for my summer plans.

Might hit up Korea.

Mmm, what's in Korea?

There's this place, The Tammora Academy, in this cool old monastery on Jeju Island.

I might teach English there.

Oh, my God.

Who knew Korea was so cute?

Get away.

Reinvent.

Maybe Korea Janet's a party girl.

Mmm, I don't think so.

But I could be.

If I was Korea Janet.

Oh, my God, all this time I thought you were Korean.

I feel so stupid.

[Sighs]

No, I mean...

Never mind.

They'll get it in Korea.

Mmm.

I love your hopeful spirit.

[Giggles]

Do you want chocolate or vanilla protein powder in your shake?

Surprise me...

with vanilla.

[Jung chuckles]

[Blender whirring]

[Thuds]

[Chirping]

Oh, no.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

Ooh, hang in there little guy.

Jung?

[Blender whirring]

[Loudly]

Jung!

[Bird chirping]

I'll be super quick, like meep-meep.

[Music playing indistinctly]

Shannon?

[Bird chirping]

[Sighs]

[Shrieking]

What are you doing?

Oh!

It's suffering.

We're all suffering.

That's why the world needs more love and less stomping on birds.

Oh, no.

So, now what?

I'm not sure.

It's just, I've got the cats, and I've seen Middens swallow a bird whole, and Snowball just copies everything Middens does.

I could take care of the bird.

The one you were about to step on?

Like some kind of birderer?

I'm not a birderer.

I can handle it.

I promise.

And I trust you.

It's gonna be pooping off ledges again in no time.

Jung!

Oops!

Sorry.

Oh!

Wha...

What you say, Janet?

You want to learn about the business?

I didn't say anything.

I was actually just looking up...

Ho, ho, what's this?

Business leader give a seminar.

You're giving the seminar?

Why didn't you say so?

Mmm, don't like to brag, Janet.

Appa tell you about seminar at the church?

It's nothing.

Just first ever speaker in a series.

[Appa chuckles]

Uh-oh.

Seminar is one week away, and only four...

three yes on invite page.

Still, it's great to be asked.

Who cares how many people show up.

Me!

I care.

Oh, I don't want your Appa to be embarrass.

Oh, I not gonna be embarrass.

The answer is in my "ize".

Oh, not eyes.

"ize" Prioritize.

Give out prize.

Advertise and immunize, But...

that's other seminar.

Okay, I change "maybe" to "yes".

[Appa chuckles]

[Yawns]

Don't you already have a coffee?

Oh, right.

I thought it was, uh...

this guy's.

It's Stacie.

You okay?

[Sighs]

Shannon and I are co-parenting this pain-in-the-butt mourning dove.

So, it flies to her place on weekends or...

I wish.

I'm single daddying it right now, and it was a long night with it chirpin' like some sort of chirpy...

Bird?

Mourning dove, Stacie.

Keep up.

Hey g*ng.

How's Dougie?

Our bird.

I...

I named him.

It just felt right.

Sure, um...

Well, Dougie is still alive, which is huge.

And he seems pretty thankful about it.

Terence: Aw!

Maybe, he was chirping "thank you" all night.

He was chirping all night?

Absentee mom alert.

Ah, he only chirped a few times.

Barely heard him.

But I was listening.

But it could be a sign of stress.

I doubt it.

He's resting now.

I fed him, chatted with him, washed him.

You mean the cage, right?

You washed the cage?

Never wash a bird.

What happens when you wash a bird?

That's private, Stacie.

God!

[Doorbell chimes]

Hey, Mrs.

Kim, Mr.

Kim.

Eotteohge Jinaeseyo?

[Exclaims]

Very good, Gerald.

Gomabseubnida.

Gomabseubnida!

Gomabseubnida!

[Appa chuckles]

Still sound like a baby asking question, but good.

What's going on?

Janet, you teach Korean to Gerald?

Actually, I've been using an app and some flash cards.

Figured it would come in handy, when Chels and I go to Korea to teach English.

Oh, Gerald.

That's so exciting.

Mmm.

What are you talking about?

I'm the one going to Korea.

You is?

Gerald: To teach?

That's awesome.

I know.

It was my idea.

You'd have to stay with halmeoni.

I haven't booked it yet.

You should.

A lot of the schools have already hired.

We applied to Tammora Academy on Jeju Island.

That's the one I was gonna apply to.

Yeah, Chelsea found it.

[Loudly]

Because I told her!

Can't just have idea, Janet.

Have to follow through, like Gerald.

[Speaking Korean]

You don't even know what that means.

It's the way he said it.

Man on TV: Great white sharks have an extra...

[Door opens]

..

sense, which enables them to detect electromagnetic...

[Door closes]

Right on time.

30 Sharks of Shark Week just started.

Where's the cage?

Oh, I think with sharks, they're called tanks, but...

No, Dougie's cage!

It was right there.

Had a bird in it?

Oh, that.

[Clicks tongue]

Yeah, sorry, it was kind of in the way, and it wouldn't quit wheezing.

Oh, my God, he can't be wheezing.

Yeah, it was kind of a bummer.

There was a damp towel on it to help him breathe.

Did you remove that, too?

Uh, sorry, I spilt my drink.

Dude.

He's barely moving.

Sorry.

I didn't think you'd care.

Why would you think that?

Last night, I woke up to you threatening to crush his voice box.

That's because I was worried about the strain the cooing might put on it.

And in grade three, you bought home the class guinea pig for a week and fed her Pogos.

[Sighs]

This is different, okay?

Dougie is important to me...

now, so just leave the towel on the cage.

Okay, but it's covered in kombucha.

[Sighs deeply]

And if you enjoy a strong, sturdy toilet paper, you also gonna enjoy a business seminar that teach you about a strong, sturdy business with celebrity speaker.

[Doorbell chimes]

Oh, it's just you said celebrity, so I was confused.

First five people who come get the special surprise prize.

I don't really like surprises.

That's why I am getting three-ply, but maybe.

[Exclaims, chuckles]

Hear that, Pastor Nina?

I have already double attendance on the event page.

About that, I was wondering if you would be willing to switch dates.

Oh.

Well, it's just the speaker I booked for next month has a conflict, and I was hoping you could swap?

So, other speaker gonna be first in the speaking series?

Yes, but you know the old saying, "Save the best for last." [Chuckles]

Although you won't actually be last, just second.

Who knows, this series could really t*nk.

Okay, I switch.

Oh, that's great.

Oh, thank you so much, Mr.

Kim.

No problem, bye.

Bye.

[Door chimes]

[Sighs]

What you doing?

Have to do speech next month.

But next time is on Friday of a long weekend.

Nobody gonna be there.

No, lots of people stay in town.

Less traffic, more room of the patio.

[Computer chimes]

Why you change back to maybe?

Long weekend.

Everybody busy.

Ah.

[Speaks in Korean]

Don't take this the wrong way, babe, but you're kinda hot in Korean.

[Chuckles]

[Speaks in Korean]

Hmm, tiger, I get it.

You looked.

Take my place.

I gotta go drain the...

Ooh.

What are you doing?

Don't worry.

They get easier.

You stole my trip idea!

I know, but it's kind of perfect for me and Ger-bear.

If it was up to him, we'd do some stupid El Camaro hike in Spain.

You're not even Korean!

This is, like, appropriation.

We're teaching English.

Back on empty.

Hit me.

Ooh.

[Speaks in Korean]

Wild boar.

You're never gonna need those words.

But if we do need 'em, we're gonna really need 'em.

Huh, another donation bag from Mr.

Lee.

Hm.

So many different color of dicky [Scoffs]

Why do you have to call it like that?

It's just a big turtleneck.

Hello, I'm artist.

I write you poem.

[Umma exclaims]

Okay, it's stuck.

No.

Looks whose boyfriend is doing speaker series instead of you.

What?

Huh.

Business master class?

What's Jimmy Young know about the business except the funny business with Pastro Nina?

His Appa just give to him a car dealership, silver spoon.

And now he doing your business seminar.

[Exhales sharply]

The Kims.

Hello.

Jimmy.

Thanks again for being flexible.

Me and the lady friend have a plan that weekend.

Maybe you know her.

She's well connected.

[Both laughing]

Sorry.

He's crazy.

Pastor Nina say he have a schedule problem.

Eh, good luck getting people to come on short notice.

It almost sell out.

What?

Look.

[Chimes]

Huh?

Why you reply yes?

It almost sell out.

Mr.

Kim, hello.

Hi.

Turnout I can't do seminar on long weekend.

Aw, that's too bad.

Well, let me know when works and we can reschedule.

Mm.

This Friday work for me.

But this Friday's event has already been set.

But was set before.

With me.

That's true.

And some people think Jimmy is first speaker in series because you and him...

Okay.

Ah, well, I can ask if Jimmy...

[Jimmy speaks indistinctly]

Oh, Mr.

Kim.

Ready to go?

Ah...

Mr.

Kim just said that he would love to take part in this week's speaker series.

Well, yeah, okay.

We can do together.

Big business and small business.

Successful business and...

You get it.

[Chuckles awkwardly]

Oh, I get.

And you gonna get on Friday.

You both gonna get.

What are we getting?

Apparently, the SUV conked out on Lakeshore.

So I upgraded them to Murano, and I'll get the other one towed.

So what happened?

It just d*ed.

That's weird.

It was fine when I cleaned it.

Maybe it was low on fluids.

Kinda was making some weird sounds.

I knew it.

What?

Oh, no, no, no, it's not what you think.

A car broke down.

So, out of the blue a car just dies.

It happens a lot.

And you're covering for him?

No, he's not, Dougie's doing just fine.

He actually just turned a corner.

Oh yeah?

The same corner you just lied your way into with this "SUV"?

It had a recall.

I expected more from you, Stacie.

Shannon, you're totally not...

I should have taken Dougie when I had the chance, but instead I left him with Jung, deadlier to birds than a spotless window.

[Sighs]

Pastor Nina: Hello.

Welcome.

And thank you all for coming.

Now our first speaker could sell a car to a blind man.

I mean he wouldn't, but he is quite persuasive.

[Chuckles]

Uh.

Please welcome Jimmy Young.

Thank you.

I owe everything I have to one man.

My father.

No kidding.

The only reason I am a success is because my father was...

Rich.

[All laughing]

Yes, my father was rich when it came to friendship.

But sadly, he d*ed penniless.

My story begin when I was 12, and get my first...

Acura Turbo sports car!

Now that would be sweet ride to my first full time job.

No, I had to take two full bus ride.

But it was worth it to see my sisters' faces when I brought home food for the family.

I would tell them I had eaten on the way home.

And occasionally I had.

Hey, few of us are going to Happy Time Noraebang.

You wanna come?

Mm, not sure.

Still have a ton of school work.

I'm actually thinking of switching my final assignment.

Maybe a photo essay of walking trails in, like, Spain or something like that Oh, my God.

The Camino de Santiago.

Oh...

what's that?

It's like this incredible hike that ends at the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela.

People from all over the world go to do this walk.

Wow.

So cool.

Meeting all these people, walking on a single path and sharing a common humanity.

So poetic.

I mean, Korea is nice too.

Yeah.

Korea.

Mmm-hmm.

You'll be there...

and Chels really wants to go.

Well, relationships are all about compromise.

You're so great about that.

You gave her your favorite Passion Pit T-shirt.

She wore it to paint ball.

But I know she compromises, too.

Right.

Anyway.

Korea!

Mansae!

So exciting.

And so if I don't sell a car, I can't afford my sister's surgery.

Oh no.

I sold four cars that day.

Ho!

And because of that, not only is my sister walking today, but long weekend next month I'll be cheering her on at her first half-marathon.

Ho!

So nice.

Thank you very much, Jimmy.

And, please welcome our next speaker, Mr.

Sang-il Kim.

[Clears throat]

Hello.

I am Mr.

Kim.

And unlike some people, I had to work very hard...

Uh...

Like Jimmy did.

Uh...

No.

Ah.

[Clears throat]

So...

If you want you kid to know about respect and hard work, don't just hand them car dealership like Jimmy's parents Did... n't.

Okay.

Sometime in business we make mistake.

Like, uh, with Cherry Cola.

I don't like Cherry Cola.

But customer say, "Get Cherry Cola in store!" Easy.

But sometime it's not easy for regular cola to share shelf with fancy cola.

Even though regular cola was there first...

everyone love Cherry Cola more.

Then Cherry Cola surprise everyone and turn out Cherry Cola is maybe okay.

Now regular cola see this...

and feel very bad.

Thank you.

I think he's talking about me.

I am Cherry Cola.

I found that report, for the car that d*ed.

I just feel so stupid, but animals make me feel so...

But that's me.

I don't need you to take that on.

Appreciate that.

And you said that Dougie had turned a corner.

Wow.

He's doing so much better.

[Chuckles]

Yeah, he's a little fighter.

Oh, this is amazing.

What did you do?

Hung out with him mostly.

Watched TV, listened to music, talked.

He made this little noise everyday when the sun came up.

Oh, he'll still make noises.

No, he won't.

No, actually, they're kind of annoying in the morning.

That's not Dougie.

I got another mourning dove on Kijiji.

Dougie's taller, better sense of humour, softer voice, way more of a diva and loved a little scratch between the...

[Sobs]

Between the...

Hey, hey, hey.

It's okay.

No it's not.

Dougie...

d*ed.

That's why I got the...

No, no, no, I got that.

Sounds like you and Dougie got pretty close.

Maybe we should have a burial for him.

I already threw him down the garbage sh**t.

Okay.

What about this guy?

We could release him into the park.

[Bird coos]

I'd like that.

Sounds like someone's turning into an animal lover.

I wouldn't say that.

Dougie was pretty cool but, I don't know, dogs are gross.

But you love Middens and Snowball, right?

Jung?

Chelsea: Oh!

Get out!

This is my apartment!

Why are you suddenly so obsessed with what's yours and what's mine?

What's going on?

Oh!

We're breaking up!

And, of course, I'm leaving 'cause I'm the only one who compromises!

I went on that roller coaster with you at Wonderland even though I wasn't tall enough!

Yeah, and you complained the whole time!

Those are my shoes.

And that cute little stammer of yours isn't quirky.

It's frickin' annoying.

Okay, okay.

Let's not say things we might regret.

What kind of nickname is Bum-bum anyway?

What are you, four?

Oh, I hope you die on that trail and other hikers eat you!

Do it!

Enough!

Let's just take a breath here!

[Breathing deeply]

You don't really want him to get eaten by hikers.

And you actually like it when she calls you Bum-bum.

It's okay.

And who cares if he can't decide where to go.

It's...

one trip.

[Exhales deeply]

See the big picture.

Like, maybe you don't have to hike the whole Camino trail.

Right?

I wouldn't go lower than half.

Half is great.

[Sing-songy]

Half a hike in Spain.

She's right.

As long as I'm holding on to those tiny hands of yours...

it doesn't matter where we go.

Exactly.

Let's go to Korea.

What?

She just said it didn't matter where you go.

And this way we'll all be together!

Oh, my God.

It'll be like here but over there.

I didn't mean those things I said.

Neither did I.

I didn't mean what I said either.

So you cancel trip to Korea you never even book.

No, I just decided it's not for me.

Now I'm thinking grad school or an internship overseas.

But what if you plan change again?

Then I'll just take over the store.

Oh!

You think we just hand over?

No.

Have to work hard, earn it yourself.

No offence, but running the store isn't exactly my dream.

You say that now, but someday you get old.

And you think a friend is all you need.

But then you die penniless...

and you kid can't run marathon.

You okay?

Yeah.

Just try to teach you lesson.

And if you work very hard, one day I sell to you store.

I'm not buying the store.

Ah.

Good negotiation technique.

I throw in light and freezer for free.

How about you keep working until you can't remember this conversation and I'll take over the store for free?

Deal.

I draw up contract.

I was kidding.

Too late.

I already record whole conversation on phone.

ABR.

Always be Record.

That's the stopwatch.
