01x04 - Episode 4

[bunniefuu]

Let me be your roommate, Khobfa.

If you make one shot out of five,
I'll let you be my roommate.

Did it go in?

It did.

Yo, my roommate!

But you have to promise me something.

If anything unlucky happens,
you have to move out right away.

Okay.

- Deal!
- Deal!

My name is Khobfa.

I am eight years old.

I like to eat fried rice,

and I want…

to help my fa…

…ter.

Okay.

It's fine, sweetheart.

"Father."

Try pronouncing it. "Father."

Father.

Okay. Make sure to pronounce it correctly
before helping your father.

Got it, sweetheart?

Keep this in mind, students. We're Thai.

We should be brave to speak English.

Come on.

- Ouch.
- Here. I'll help you.

Man, you're really going all out.

Going all out for what?

Moving in with a tough guy like Khobfa.

What do you mean?

We know what you're trying to do.

You're trying to get back at Krit, right?

Nice one, bro. That's smart.

Actually, I--

It's fine, Rin.

You're still our friend. I'm cool with it.

But if Khobfa finds out about your plan
and does anything bad to you,

tell us right away.

Yeah, Rin. You have to tell us right away.

But this is the right move.
Revenge has to be served.

You're seriously smart.

You're an amazing friend.

- Let's go.
- Let's go.

Yeah. Let's do this.

I'm here. What are you doing?

GIVE ME A SEC. I JUST WOKE UP.

Guys, I feel like
I'm forgetting something.

Should we take a selfie for my story?

- Sure.
- Yeah?

Sending our friend into a guy's room
for the first time!

What do you mean by that?

Stop complaining and take the picture.

Ready?

Three, two, one.

Well…

This is Ohm, and this is Jinnie.

My friends.

Yeah.

Can I ask you something?

Why did your landlord
ask for the house back?

- We wrecked it.
- The owner sold the property.

Huh?

- The owner sold the property.
- We wrecked the house…

- Well… The pipes broke, right?
- Well…

Well, the landlord's renovating the place.

- Yeah. Right.
- Right. Renovating.

- And property prices have gone up too.
- Right.

So we had to hurry and move out.

- It was exhausting.
- Yeah.

I'm still not done packing.

Me neither.

All right, good luck. See you later.

See you later.

Should I bring my stuff in now?

So, what are your roommate rules?

I can handle anything.

Don't move any
of my personal belongings, ever.

Yeah, sure.

Same goes for my stuff.

Don't touch them.

Fine.

What's next?

You're studying fine arts, right?

Yeah.

Don't get paint all over my room.

Easy. What else?

I'm a clean freak.
Don't make my room dirty. Got it?

Don't make the room dirty. Got it.

Yeah.

The bed is over there.

Wow.

So I sleep in the bed,
and you sleep down there, right?

That's cute.

Wait.

You've got it wrong.

You sleep down there. I sleep in the bed.

I think you said that wrong.

Who gets the bed? Say it again.

You sleep down there.

Got it?

Right.

Where's the bathroom?

Hang in there.

I can do this.

Once his birthday comes,
it'll all be over.

sh*t!

What happened?

Who told you
to leave your boxers lying here, idiot?

I'm giving you one week.
You can stay here--

"But nothing unlucky
can happen because of you."

If anything bad happens to me,
I'm leaving this room right away.

You've said that five times already.
I remember.

I'm keeping my eye on you.

I'm the one keeping an eye on you.

No, I'm keeping my eye on you.

I'm keeping my eye on you.

I'm keeping my eye on you.

Me.

- No, me.
- I'm keeping an eye on you.

- Me.
- I'm the one watching you.

I'm his roommate now. I'll try my best
to stay with him until his birthday.

Then you can stop worrying now.

Khobfa.

Hey. Nothing unlucky
happened to you today, right?

Is that how you say hello?

Stand farther away.

So what's the plan?

We've been waiting forever.

Let's go inside.

You two always arrive together these days.

We're roommates.
Of course we arrive together.

Right?

Yeah.

So I guess we're condo buddies now.

Why are you going this far, Rin?

What do you mean?

All of this.

Why do you have to go this far?

How far is "this far"?

As far as what you did to me?

Seriously, Krit.
You have no right to say that to me.

I'm only asking

because I'm worried about you.

It's over.

No matter what you do,

we're already over.

You said things between you were over,

so make sure they really are.

Just leave me here.

Okay.

Take care of yourself.

Yeah.

TOP 5 FINALISTS

If you're going to do this,
it should be more evenly matched.

What are you talking about?

Look at Khobfa.

I don't think
he can easily compete with Krit.

How do you know Khobfa can't beat Krit?

Just wait and see whether Krit or Khobfa
will be the one who wins.

Fine.

Is your pitching presentation ready?

I'm waiting to coach you.

I just told the professor I'm withdrawing.

What?

Why would you withdraw?

What are you so scared of?

I can help you beat Krit.

Why do I have to beat Krit?

What? Don't you want to beat someone
who looked down on you?

You're always like this.

You just let people look down on you.

You don't know anything.

Can you stay out of it?

Seriously?

Why did Khobfa withdraw?

I'm not sure.

Well, that's good.

Just do your best.

I'm sure you can win
the championship again.

Honestly, I'm still not that confident.

The last time I won,
it was partly because of Rin.

Hey, you can stand on your own now.

You're really good.
Believe in yourself more.

Show Rin that you can do
just fine without him.

If I win,

do I get a reward?

What do you want?

My…

foot or my fist?

Come on, Mochi. That's not very creative.

I'm kidding.

Fine. I'll treat you…

I'll treat you to an omakase.

Oh, really? Wow, thank you so much.

I'm working on it as fast as I can.
Prof. James isn't going to yell at me.

How are you doing?
How's your roommate? Is he okay?

I guess.

I was talking to him just fine,
but then he turned his a*s toward me.

Stop playing already.

Why? You can't handle it?

If you can't, go stay somewhere else.
You don't have to be my roommate.

Seriously, you…

Try talking back to other people
the way you do to me.

Khobfa!

You're a jinx.

I'm sorry.

Everyone in this family died
because of you.

Why didn't you die instead, Khobfa?

I didn't do it.

I'm a jinx, aren't I?

I'm the reason Mom and Dad died.

I'm sorry I'm a jinx.

I'm sorry, Dad.

I don't think I can do it.

Why did you mess with my stuff?

If we ignore the grammar
and add a little more sincerity,

I think this is already pretty good,

especially the part inspired by your dad.

You should stay in the competition.

But I'm not good at English.

I got made fun of for it as a kid.

You can always practice a language.

But what's in here…

and in here…

I think they're already amazing.

You don't need to practice them.

Just stay in the competition.

Don't do it for anyone else.

Just go up there

and imagine you're telling your dad
about your project.

Let me help you.

Consider it part of me
being your roommate.

Let me do something for you.

Please? Come on. Please.

Please. I'm begging you.

Please let me help you.

Fine. Okay. Let's do it.

Yay!

I'll help you, so don't worry.
I'm going to train you hard, okay?

I'll turn you into
a top businessman in this country.

I guarantee your pitch will be amazing.

"My project is helping people
to can have a house."

Hey. You can't say "to can."

Then what am I supposed to say?

This part should be,
"helps people own a house."

"And asset owners unlock the hidden value
of what they already have."

"This is not just a smarter way to spend."

"It's a smarter way to live. Thank you."

Was it okay?

I think…

It was okay.

Okay.

"My project is help people own house

because my father, he working very hard,
but still don't have a house."

Wrong.

You just need to smile a little more.

Smile often. You look cute when you smile.

"He works very hard
but still doesn't have a house."

That's better.

Yes!

Now, when you speak,
you have to speak from the heart.

You have to feel it, okay?

How do I smile?

Well, smile like this.

Do I look cute now?

Do you think I can do it?

You really like competitions, don't you?

They're challenging.

And maybe my family
will finally be proud of me.

I believe your family
will be proud of what you do.

Just like I've always been proud of you.

You're proud of me?

I guess.

I don't know.

Well, if you win,

then Rin can stop using Khobfa
to make you jealous.

You're a jinx.

I'm sorry.

Everyone in this family died
because of you.

Stop talking to your grandson like that.

He didn't do anything wrong.

KHUNKAO CHAIPANHA
MAR 6,1980-JAN 12, 2020

Khobfa, sweetheart.

Why didn't you die instead, Khobfa?

Stop it!

I didn't want this to happen.

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to.

I didn't want any of this to happen.

Here.

You didn't sleep well last night?

Yeah.

I've been having bad dreams lately.

Want me to take you to campus?

No need.
Don't you have an afternoon class?

But how will you get there?
You'll drive when you're this sleepy?

That's my problem.

What happened to Khobfa?

He probably got into trouble again.

When is Ohm getting here?

- We've been waiting forever.
- Yeah.

Rin, Jinnie!

- Look at this.
- Huh?

What the hell did Khobfa do?

Everyone's sharing it.

They're saying that thug
got into another fight.

He looks like
he got into a fight with a dog.

Your roommate…

Be careful around him.

Let me see.

Look at him.

The number you have dialed
cannot be reached at this time.

Please leave your message.

- What?
- Hey!

Where are you, Khobfa?

Are you looking for me?

Khobfa!

What happened to you?

I just fell off my motorbike this morning.

I told you. If you're sleepy, don't drive.

I just didn't get enough sleep.
I only blacked out for a second.

It wasn't because of bad luck.

Can you please stop getting yourself hurt?

What should I do?
His bad luck is starting again.

He's been having nightmares so often
that he doesn't get enough sleep.

Then he rode his motorbike and crashed.

Easy, kid.

Maybe he's not unlucky.
Maybe he's just sleep-deprived.

Exactly.

Nothing beats a good night's sleep
and sweet dreams.

What are you making?

A dreamcatcher.
They're really trendy right now.

What's that?

Self-care is really trendy these days.

If you're going to be healthy,
go all the way,

both when you're awake
and when you're asleep.

Basically, the web catches the bad dreams

and lets the good dreams pass through,
so you can sleep peacefully.

Seriously?

Of course.

Wait, you're wearing one too.

You don't know what it means?

No. My mom gave it to me,
but I never knew what it meant.

Nothing beats a good night's sleep
and sweet dreams.

Ouch.

Why is it so tight?

Ouch.

I hope this helps you, Khobfa.

Hey, what are you doing?

I thought it looked nice, so I was
going to decorate the room with it.

No. If you want to hang that up,
hang it on your side.

Come on. Something like this
looks best by the window.

But this is my side. I don't like it.

Just leave it. You'll like it eventually.

Why are you forcing me?

Did you forget this is my room?

Stop messing with my stuff.

Hey, but this can stop your nightmares.

It's called a dreamcatcher.

You've been having nightmares
and not getting enough sleep.

I just wanted to help you.

I don't want it. I'm fine.

Rin, can we talk?

What is it?

I know I don't have the right
to tell you who you can date.

But if you're going to date someone,
can't you choose someone better?

What do you mean?

Didn't you tell me yourself
to stay away from Khobfa?

So what's this?
You're getting close to him now.

Nobody wants Khobfa.
He's nothing but bad luck.

Krit.

I never thought
you'd be this kind of person.

I don't care
what other people say about Khobfa.

The Khobfa I know
is nothing like what they say.

Here.

I got this for you.

Why are you waiting for me
in front of my faculty?

We're supposed to practice
our presentation today.

Thanks…

for standing up for me like that.

You heard that?

People just say whatever they want.

I felt uncomfortable
hearing them talk like that.

I'm sorry.

I might've made you
uncomfortable yesterday too.

Maybe I really am what they say I am.

I don't think so.

Come on.

Let's practice the presentation
and prove them wrong.

Okay. Today, we're practicing
without a script.

It'll be like
you're actually onstage. Okay?

Then imagine
I'm a top businessman in the country,

looking for a new business to invest in.

Whenever you're ready, the floor is yours.

My… name is…

Keep this in mind, students. We're Thai.

We should be brave to speak English.

My name…

What's wrong?

I'm not used to this!

I had to present in front of the class
when I was a kid.

I said something wrong,
and my teacher laughed at me.

I can't do it.
I can't speak in front of people!

So what did that teacher look like?

What was her name?

Teacher Maratee.

Teacher Maratee.

With all due respect,
what kind of teacher are you?

Just because a kid can't speak English
in front of the class,

that doesn't mean he's stupid.

Wait. You're the one teaching him, right?

So maybe the problem is
you didn't teach him properly.

And another thing.

Making a kid stand there
while everyone laughs at them isn't right.

Come on. Your turn.

Huh?

Scold her.

Yeah.

You shouldn't do that.

Come on, harsher than that.

Yeah!

You know some kids
aren't good at this subject,

but they're still trying their best.

What kind of teacher are you?

Is making fun of your own student
hilarious to you or something?

Thanks.

I'll do my best.

I promise I won't let you down.

Don't do it for me.

Don't worry about what anyone else says.

Just tell them what you want to tell them.

This platform lets people rent items
instead of buying them,

so they only pay
for what they actually use.

At the same time,

the owners can earn from items
they already have but rarely use.

We simply connect both sides

without holding inventory.

Students,
if you haven't finished your work,

you're not going anywhere.

It's just a simple landscape drawing.

- Ohm, hurry up.
- Okay.

So it turns unused assets
into real assets.

This is not just a smarter way to spend.

This is a smarter way to live.

Thank you.

Look at Krit.

He nailed the presentation.

Incredible!

Prof, can you just
finish the class already?

You did amazing.

All right. Next is the second contestant,
Mr. Watchiravit Kaoiam.

You did very well today.

Leave your work with your friend.
Collect and submit them.

- See you, everyone. Thank you very much.
- Thank you. Goodbye.

Collect the assignments.

Hey, can you pack my stuff for me?
I've got to go.

- Go ahead.
- Hurry up.

Sending my support to Khobfa!

Hurry up, dude!

Khobfa.

- What are you doing here?
- Excuse me.

- Be careful!
- Khobfa!

You almost got hurt.

Thanks.

Are you ready?

I'm ready.

Let's go.

Let's go.

Oops!

I'm sorry.

- sh*t!
- sh*t!

Take off your shirt.

Huh?

Just wear mine for now.

Hurry.

Let's switch.

Thanks.

When you're with me, the unlucky things
that happen seem so small.

Come here.

All done.

Hey, can I leave my dad's pen with you?

Of course.

I'll take the best care
of your dad for you.

I promise.

Thanks.

Hey, wait.

And this…

for good luck.

Thanks. I'm going now.

Good luck.

Let's go see how amazing your son is, Dad.

- Am I on time?
- Yeah, but…

What happened to your shirt?

Forget about it.

Is that your shirt?

Is that yours?

- Don't worry about it. Just watch him.
- Our final contestant is…

Mr. Khobfa Chaipanha!

You can do it.

This project didn't start with numbers,

not with profit,
not with a business model.

But it started with my dad,

an ordinary man
who has worked his whole life

and yet still doesn't have
a home of his own.

Not because he didn't try,

but because he never had
the same opportunities.

So I created HomeStep,

a platform that doesn't only sell homes,

but also helps ordinary people
move closer to owning their homes,

step by step.

Don't do it for anyone else.

Just go up there

and imagine you're telling your dad
about your project.

You're a jinx.

Everyone in this family died
because of you.

Why didn't you die instead, Khobfa?

Don't let anyone hurt you, okay?

Don't worry about what anyone else says.

Just tell them what you want to tell them.

From financial guidance

to building credit

and to finding a home
they can truly afford.

Because in the end,

a home is not just a place to live.

It is stability.

It is the dignity that everyone deserves.

Thank you.

And now, I have the final results
in my hands.

This year's winner is…

Mr. Kritchaphat Iamchaisree.

We have something special this year.

Another contestant received
the exact same score.

And that person is…

Mr. Khobfa Chaipanha!

THE GRAND PRIZE
PITCHING BUSINESS MODEL 2026

THE GRAND PRIZE
PITCHING BUSINESS MODEL 2026

See that, Dad? Your son did amazing!

Congrats.

Thanks. You too.

You usually prefer being alone.

Why did you agree
to let Rin be your roommate?

Why don't you ask Rin?

Does Rin like you?

I don't know.

What about you?

Do you like Rin?

- Yeah! Cheers!
- Yeah!

Come on, everyone! Let's drink to Khobfa!

Drink, drink.

Hey, Khobfa.
You're number one to me today.

I know you're cochampions,
but I'm giving you first place today.

Seriously.

When they announced the results,
Mochi and Krit looked so shocked.

- I saw it too.
- Come on, how did they look?

Like this.

Totally shocked.

- sh*t, you look just like…
- Like what? Watch your mouth.

- Like Krit and Mochi!
- Yeah.

Yeah! They really looked like this.
They were completely stunned.

Come on, make a shocked face.

- Yeah, yeah.
- He just moved his nostrils.

Your turn. Do it!

- Hey!
- Hey!

- What's that?
- That's hilarious.

- Come on. Cheers!
- Cheers!

You look so dumb.

Then you do it.

Was your mouth really like that?

They were totally stunned!

- Yeah.
- Really?

I told you to drink slowly.

I just wanted to celebrate with you.

Congratulations.

Hold on tight.

It'll keep you safe.

Okay.

I'll hold on to you tight,
so you won't run into any more bad luck.

A presto amora!

Go to sleep. Go on.

What are you even saying?

You don't have to be afraid
of nightmares tonight.

Go. Sleep properly.

You're lucky, you know.

You can fall asleep anywhere.

What about you?

Do you like Rin?

Remember what I told you?

Whenever you're with me,

all the unlucky things that happen
seem so small.

I really mean that.

You've got Rin with you tonight, kid.

Sweet dreams.

A presto amora!

Hey!

Our activity this semester
is a nature camp.

This camp is amazing.

There's even a legend about a tree
that can prove true love.

Guys, I think Khobfa's acting weird today.

I think I really like you.

Can I hit on you?

Thank you so much.

If it weren't for you, I probably
wouldn't have tried anything new.

Rin isn't here, Khobfa.

Rin, don't let anything happen to you.

Rin!
