01x11 - The Rank

Post by bunniefuu »

BEAUTY

Good morning, students.

Soon,

the winner of the school's
annual Shining Star award

will be officially announced.

The winner will receive an honorary trophy
as well as a special prize.

There will also be many other privileges

for the Shining Star
and all of our top ten stars.

That's right.

Just like the director said,

beauty is everything to a woman.

There are no ugly people,

only lazy ones.

How about you?

Are you ready to achieve your full beauty?

Good morning, girls.

Today, the rankings haven't changed.

But don't forget,

as long as you don't give up,

you will always be prettier tomorrow.

GODDESS OF BEAUTY

Excuse me.

Hello. Come in.

Introduce yourself to your classmates.

Hello.

I'm Nanno.

Nice to meet you.

Princess Ten.

Yes, ma'am.

Nanno is joining us
in the middle of the semester.

She might be behind.

As the class leader,
I would like you to look after her.

Yes, ma'am.

Take the seat next to Ying.

Okay.

When a girl smiles to a new acquaintance,

it means one of two things.

One,

she wants to be friends.

Two,

she wants to make friends with an enemy.

Everyone, get your textbooks out.

It will always be the latter

if the other girl is prettier.

Hey,

what happened to your face?

Oh, I cut it on a leaf. It's nothing.

It's not nothing.

Around here,

you must take good care of yourself.

You can't go around looking d*sfigured.

She's not speaking her mind.

This is getting interesting.

Okay.

LERD FAH TOWER

"Lerd Fah Tower."

We call it "Top Ten Tower."

Top ten?

Hang on.

Are you that out of the loop?

Here, we rank the top ten
most beautiful students.

If anything happens to their faces,

their ranking will be updated
in real time.

We have an application

that tells us our current ranking.

This building is a privilege

that the top ten models have earned,

since they are the ones who spread
our school's beauty to the world.

Where are you in the ranking?

I'm lucky.

I'm at number ten,

even though

there are many girls
who are prettier than me here.

No wonder.

That's why everyone calls you
Princess Ten.

Do you want to come in?

Well...

Didn't you just say

that this building

is only for the top ten girls?

Yes,

but the top ten girls

can bring one friend in as a guest.

Do you want to see what it's like

to live as one of the top ten?

I do.

How is it? Is it beautiful?

This is the dining room.

Over there is the living room.

Hello, students.

I'm sending all my support
to every student out there.

Please do your best

to become the next Shining Star.

The winner

will receive an honorary trophy
as well as a special prize.

There will also be many other privileges

for the Shining Star
and all the top ten stars.

Don't forget

that beauty is a woman's life,

her faith, and her value.

Let us thank our beauty
for showing us the way.

And to every student,

believe in your beauty.

Good luck.

Come on. Let's eat.

This way.

Is it good?

Yes.

Thank you so much, Ying.

You're welcome.

It's not like I paid for your meal.

Yes, but you brought me in here.

Don't worry about it.

However...

I might not be able
to bring you here often.



On other days,

you might need to live
as an ordinary person,

with the average people.



But it's not that bad.



Sometimes, I think I would like
to live outside, too.



You are so down to earth.

Nanno.

Chocolate contains trans fat.

I'll have one bite.

I don't want to turn you down.

Hello, Princess.

Hello, Chompoo.

Who did you come in with today?

I...

Well...

Chompoo,

you can't just wander in here

without a top ten.

Do you want it?

Here. Take it.

I can't eat it all.

I don't want to put on weight.

Really?

Thank you.

You can't be in here.

I feel so bad for Chompoo.

With that flat face and nose of hers,

she'll never get to live in here.



Sometimes I pity her,

so I bring her in with me

or if I can't,

I give her good food.



You're not only pretty,

but you're thoughtful, too.

You deserve to be the Shining Star.

No.

I just want

to help others when I can.



I think she's here.

What?

The queen.

The queen?

Let's go.

I'll show you the real Shining Star.

That's Gade.

She's in first place.

NUMBER 1, GADE PIMNAPA

Those twins,

they are Cherry and Lilly.

They are in second and third place.

And those two are Kim and Fah.

They are fifth and seventh.

Gade is beautiful,

smart,

and friendly.

Look at her.

She walks like a swan.

Wouldn't you like to be number one?

I think

you're just as beautiful as Gade.

Are you insane?

For me,

just being in the top ten

is more than I could hope for.

As for becoming the Shining Star,

I have never even thought about it.

It's also impossible.

No one can take Gade down.

Ying.

You don't know that.

Nanno.

Actually,

you're quite pretty yourself.

Why don't you check your own rank?

What, me?

I would be happy

if I'm second to last.

No way. Let's have a look.

Come on.

I'll check it for you.

MARA AMARATAYAKUL

What?

I can't believe it.

I'm in 11th place.

I'm only one place behind you,

even though you are
so much prettier than me.

Congratulations, Nanno.

Thank you.

So, I have to go.

Thank you, Ying.

We are sorry to inform you

that you have dropped to number 11.

Oh, no.

Congratulations, Nanno.

You just started here,
but you're already number ten.

You might even move up faster than Ying.

Ying has been in tenth place for so long.

She hasn't moved up at all.

What? It's true, isn't it?

Look.

Hello,

Princess Ten.

You

are number ten now.

Come on now.

You are still

Princess 11.

I'm sure it's only temporary.

Once your pimple disappears,

your ranking will go back to normal.

Can I ask

why you let yourself get a pimple?

I've never seen you with a pimple before.

Don't touch it.

It will get worse if you touch it.

You must have been eating sweets.
They can give you pimples.

You can't leave it like that.

I know a good clinic.
Shall I take you there?

If the doctor is so good,

why don't you let him
take a look at your face?

It would be good.

Do you want to go? I'm free this evening.

It's fine.

Thank you though.

Well then, I'll get going.

Let's go.

Let's go.

This bow is so tight, isn't it?

And to every student,

believe in your beauty.

Good luck.

Your name is not in the top ten.
Who did you come with?

She's here with me.

Come and sit down.

No, it's fine.

I accidentally came here out of habit.

Actually, I kind of miss the food
in the canteen out there.

I'll just eat there.

You can have my quota, too, if you like.

Then, tomorrow,

come and eat here with me.

It's so lonely

sitting here all alone.

Okay.

Ordinary people.

SPECIAL PRICE
FROM 30,000 TO 19,000

Ying.

I want to show you something.

Look at this, Ying.

I'm in the top ten now.

I'm in sixth place.

What?

NUMBER 6, WI PISCHA

This year's Shining Star award goes to

Miss Ying Chenchonnanee Rasameepun.

We are sorry to inform you

that your ranking has dropped

to 21st place.

NUMBER 21, YING CHENCHONNANEE

No.

LERD FAH TOWER

Hello, Ying.

Nanno.

What are you doing here?

Are you buying acne cream?

No.

This shop has so many types of cosmetics.

If we use some,
our ranks will definitely improve.

Can you help me choose?

Ying.

TWO DAYS LATER...

NUMBER 21, YING CHENCHONNANEE

Yes!

My pimple is gone.

Congratulations.

You have climbed the rankings

to tenth place.

What's your first subject?

-I'm not sure. I forgot.
-What?

Jom, Best, hello.

-Hello.
-Hello.

I'll see you in class.

What's with her?

She's acting weird, isn't she?

What are you doing?

New.

I'm a bit dizzy
so I want to go on the swing.

Do you want to join me?

You haven't heard, have you?

You should check your messages.

I'm the one who should be inviting you.

You have no right to use this swing.

Get out of here.

Don't.

Don't.

We are sorry to inform you

that you have dropped down

to 11th place.

NUMBER 11, YING CHENCHONNANEE

LERD FAH TOWER

Please leave this area.

She's with me.

Do you want to join me, Princess 11?

No, thank you.

I'll push you.

Ying, you are so kind.

Thank you, Ying.

I think

it's such a shame.

I want you to be in the top ten with me.

What can I do?

This is probably the best I can do.

Don't give up, Ying.

Actually, there is a way.

If you can't be prettier,

you can make others less pretty.

Wait.

Ying.

You're pushing too hard.

Ying.

Nanno!

Nanno.

Congratulations.

You are now back in the top ten.

Thank you, Nanno.

Let's eat after we do our makeup.

Afternoon tea, like we discussed.

That's right.

Let me fix my face first.

Put on some blush.

Girls.

Have you heard?

-What about?
-Ying.

She's back in the top ten again.

I heard. Everyone heard about it.

Nanno

fell off the swing.

Yes. She fell off the swing.

Every year, as the award day approaches,

things like this start to happen.

Last year, do you remember
what happened to Ann?

-Ann?
-Yes.

The day before the announcement,

she dropped from 2nd to 40th place.

That's right.
She dropped from second place.

She dropped 28 places.

It's 38. What is wrong with your math?

Whatever, 38 places.

That's a lot.

Actually, Gade, I pity Ying.

She's been in tenth place
for five years now.

I feel bad for her.

You can't blame her for it, though.

In Ying's case,

blame it on her mother.

That's harsh.

I'm hungry now.

-Come on. Let's eat.
-Our appointed afternoon tea.

I want some macaroons.

Yes, definitely.

I want some orange juice.

That sounds good.

In Ying's case,

blame it on her mother.

Blame it on her mother.

My mother? As if.

NUMBER 9, YING CHENCHONNANEE

-Why is it so itchy?
-Right?

Why is it so itchy?

NUMBER 7, YING CHENCHONNANEE

You deserve this.

Does something smell strange to you?

Look!

Help!

NUMBER 4, YING CHENCHONNANEE

I see that weird things

are happening to all the girls
in the top ten.

Everyone's ranking has dropped.

-What?
-You look like a monkey.

NUMBER 2, YING CHENCHONNANEE

Stop right now, Cherry. Go to the nurse.

Hello, it's me, Gade.

Today, I will review a new cream.

I've tried it. It really works.

What are you doing?

Nanno.

You scared me.

You've been worn out

these last few days, right?

Since it's so close to the announcement
of the Shining Star,

you should be careful.

Thank you.

LERD FAH TOWER

Do you want a drink?

How did you get in here?

Right now,

our school's beauty standard

has dropped a long way.

Even with my face like this,

I'm in third place.

What happened?

Ying.

You don't have to play dumb.

You

are a role model

for all those wannabe models.

Everyone is copying you.

Are you here to steal my crown
from me, Nanno?

The Shining Star award

is not important to me.

But it is important

to people like you.

People like me?

Are you so sure that you've already won?

That's impossible.

It is possible.

Ying.

Don't forget.

Believe in your beauty

and good luck.

BEAUTY

You should know your place, Ying.

Unfortunately for you, though,

you have your heart set
on the Shining Star.

Do you think that you are the only one

who can be the Shining Star?

Beauty does not last.

And because I know that truth,

I also know

that I can be the Shining Star.

Tenth place like you?

I'll show you.

Hello. Our ranking system

is back online.

Students,

please gather in the main hall

to witness the beauty

in the annual Shining Star award

at Satreevijityatra School.

And to every student,
believe in your beauty.

It looks like everybody is here,

so the announcement of the annual
Shining Star award

will begin now.

In order not to waste anybody's time,

the Shining Star award

goes to...

You can't do this.

Who the hell is she?

She doesn't go to our school.

No matter what,

the award is mine.

Young lady, we must have faith
in our friend's beauty as well.

And the Shining Star Award goes to...

She looks familiar.

Thank... Thank you

to the school...

sh*t. It's Chompoo.

...for giving me...

Oh, my god.

...the opportunity.

Thank... Thank you...

to the show Let Me In

for... for making my...

my dream come... come true today.

Thank you.

Don't forget

that beauty is a woman's life,

her faith, and her value.

Let us thank our beauty

for showing us the way.

And to every student,

believe in your beauty.

Good luck.

BEAUTY
