01x03 - Episode 3

[bunniefuu]

Excuse me.

Are you still looking for a repairman?

Yes, we are.

Are you applying for your friend?

I'm applying for myself,

not for anyone else.

It's Pit Babe.

You probably know him, right?

Kim, the Red Racing Team's new racer.

From now on, only people who are

authorized to the X-Hunter Team.

I brought him myself.

Uncle didn't say anything.

Why are you guys being so serious?

Hello, Alan.

I came to negotiate the purchase of racers

from the X-Hunter team.

Exchange with Pit Babe.

I think it's not a bad offer.

If you would only agree

to the terms of Babe's deal,

your X-Hunter team could ask

for tens of millions more.

Mr. Tony doesn't mind.

As for this check,

I am giving it as a deposit.

But regarding the right

to work and control Babe,

your X-Hunter team has to sell that.

You have to give it all to us.

I suggest you take your money back.

Babe is not my property

nor my item to sell.

I work wholeheartedly with him.

I don't have the right to hand him over

to anyone if he is unwilling.

How can you be so sure

that Babe is unwilling?

Don't forget

that Babe knew Mr. Tony before you.

He is the one whom Babe

calls "Dad".

I think an outsider like you

shouldn't act too confident.

What's wrong, Uncle?

Why do you look stressed?

Don't tell me you're worried

about Red Racing.

I already told you not to worry.

No matter how much money someone has,

if they don't have the skills,

it's useless.

It's not just that.

Today, someone came to see me.

Huh?

They sent someone to meet you?

Yeah.

They came to make an offer to buy you.

How do you feel, Charlie, to have been

Babe's boy for such a long time?

I feel good.

Do you have a secret story about Babe

to share with our Ringside Racing fans?

North, if Babe finds out

that you teased his boy…

Babe, can you calm down first?

Hey, please stop.

Babe, Hey!

Babe!

- Babe, wait.

- What happened?

Hey!

Babe, Babe!

Please wait for me.

Uncle,

what's wrong with Babe?

An investor is trying to buy him

to put pressure on our team.

He couldn't stand it,

so he went to pick a fight with them.

Go and tell your boss,

No amount of money will ever buy me.

And don't you dare involve Alan in this.

You've gone out and played enough.

When will you come home?

And why do I have to go back there?

Because you're the apple of Daddy's eye.

Daddy misses you a lot.

He misses me?

Well, that's him.

I've never missed him one bit.

Ah.

I'm not as tame as you.

When he commands you,

you just wag your tail and follow him.

I have a message for Tony.

Tell him he should stop trying.

Because I will never go back there again.

MAINTENANCE CHECK

What are you doing?

Hey, kid.

I might not look it,

but I overhauled this engine myself.

I see. But if you're stressed,

find something else to do.

Don’t try to take my job.

You noticed?

I should find time to meet

with some big investors

and raise some money to support our team.

That way, our racers won’t have

to be stressed like this.

If you get some investment, will you still

be able to do what you want?

You'll have to be patient

about showing off or acting in ads.

And you'll have to do things that

are not related to racing, right?

I really can't stand all that.

But whatever I do

may not be good for the team.

If they were with someone who was willing

to give their all and support them,

they'd be better off.

Like Babe, if he goes back

to live with his family.

Family is not everyone's safe zone.

If what you were doing wasn't good enough,

no racer would still be sticking with you.

Well, well.

So you can speak kindly

to comfort people, huh, kid?

Huh?

What comfort?

How many times have I told you

that my name is Jeff, not "kid"?

Oh?

Hey!

People who came here in the beginning

were hard-hearted like this.

Just wait, you’ll soften up eventually.

Come on,

I’ll buy you some snacks.

Come. Come on, quickly.

Why would I want snacks? I'm already full.

Just come eat with me.

Way!

You can sell all the cars

I’ve parked in your showroom…

and take the money to Alan.

Tell him I'll sponsor our team myself.

As much as UAC CORP invests in Red Racing,

I will give the same to our team.

Babe, please calm down.

You don't have that much money.

Besides, Alan still has money.

I know Alan has money.

But I don't want him

to have to bear the burden.

Babe, don't think too much.

I know some rich, high-society people.

I'll help Alan.

So what are you going to do tonight?

Can you drive home?

Want to sleep in my room?

It's okay, your boy will be jealous of me.

I don't have any boy. You know me, Babe.

I've never had anyone but you.

I'm just joking.

You can leave. I'll go home.

Then I'll take you home.

It's okay, I'll let Charlie stay with me.

Charlie.

Why are you working out here?

Why didn't you go inside?

How am I supposed to get in?

You invited me to move in.

But you keep changing

your door code all the time.

So why didn't you call me and ask?

I wouldn't dare.

I don't know if you'd like

to pick up the phone.

Or you might be annoyed with me.

You handle everything by yourself,

telling me not to bother,

don't you remember?

I'm Babe's boy,

but I can't do anything with Babe.

Well, I’m actually just a hookup anyway.

I have no right to be involved with you.

Hey!

Do you really have to be so dramatic?

Well… I'm sorry.

You don't have to apologize to me.

You haven't done anything wrong.

But I don't understand.

You want me by your side,

but you won’t let me understand you.

Do you really want to understand me?

Come on, let’s go inside.

Do you know

what people like to call me?

Pit Babe,

"king of the field".

If we ignore all the talk

about how fast you go through partners.

You are a man

who fulfills three standards.

Divinely handsome,

divinely skilled,

and extremely rich.

People these days just talk,

even though they don't know anything.

But you have everything.

I've only had these things as an adult.

When I was young, I didn't have anything.

The Pit Babe that everyone knows

is just a fake image

that was created.

Before, there was no Pit Babe.

There was only a boy

named Babe.

THE AREA OF T WORLD IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN.

VIOLATORS WILL BE PROSECUTED.

My father got defrauded and went bankrupt.

We had to sell the house

to pay off our debt.

We had to leave and live a wandering life.

However, I was still happy

to be with my father.

But one day, my father left me.

Your father isn't here anymore.

But it's okay.

From now on…

Father gave me to the Chen family.

…I will take care of you.

There were many children there.

But we were raised separately.

I heard the voices of other children

but never saw anyone.

I've finished it.

Then I began to feel my own special sense.

They trained me

to better use my special sense.

It wasn’t until I grew up that I realized…

Tony was the one

who swindled my father into bankruptcy.

Babe!

You are my favorite son.

You know how high my hopes for you are.

If I hadn’t been there that day,

what would you have become?

Let me go.

The person who hurt me

is the person who gave me life.

After that, I decided to escape.

And…

how do you feel now?

I'm okay.

It's been a long time since it happened.

One day, I'll probably forget about it.

I just have to remind myself

to not think about it.

To not trust anyone.

To not love anyone.

People who are nice to us

without expecting any benefit,

don't exist in this world.

Isn't that true?

I am a person

who wants benefits from you.

Probably not including you,

because I also benefit from you.

Treat it as k*lling time

until we each get bored.

I'm not bored of you.

I will be with you and be nice to you.

I'll take care of you

until you get bored of me.

I’ll stay until you chase me away.

Is that so?

Then I'll wait and see.

Well,

if you want to stay here for a long time,

keep trying to make me a soft-hearted guy.

Is that okay?

Okay.

Babe,

didn't you say we wouldn't kiss?

Well, I've changed my mind.

Don't you like it?

Kid.

Aren't you bored?

All day long, you just work on this car

and don't talk to anyone.

And every day, you ask the same question.

"Aren't you bored?"

I'm not going to give in to you.

Brother Alan, hey!

I would like to discuss the next match.

Do you know about the match program

at Bangsaen yet?

Yeah.

I heard that it's a competition

to promote young rookies.

Have you chosen anyone yet?

If you haven't, can I go?

Can I go?

Please let me compete.

Come on, I really want to compete.

Hey!

Dean.

I'm sorry.

This year, I probably won't send our team

to every match.

I have to prioritize

only the important matches.

Is it because you have to prepare

to compete with the Red Racing team?

That's right.

The more money they spend,

the more careful we need to be.

Otherwise, we will lose

the big championship race

and lose Babe's record as well.

Hmph.

It's not that

I don't see your efforts, Dean.

You are a rising young racer.

I guarantee that

once this matter is resolved,

you’re the first person

I’ll send to the track.

Really? Promise?

Yes!

Thank you very much.

Thank you. I will go practice first.

Hey, you don't have to practice that much.

Please get some rest.

Racers must know how to take care

of their bodies, you know?

Yeah.

What are you looking at?

At someone who acts smart

in front of other people.

In fact, you still haven't found

a solution to the capital problem.

Oh, is it something that's easy to fix?

Huh?

It's easy.

If we can’t compete financially,

then we just need to find someone who can

and have them fight for us.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

The enemy of my enemy…

That's right.

You really are the best, kid.

Thank you very much.

Hey, aren’t you going

to keep working on the car?

Are you alright?

Mr. Pete.

Mr. Pete.

Can I have a moment please?

I'm afraid it won't be possible.

Mr. Pete has to rush to a meeting.

But I've been waiting for five hours.

It won't be possible.

So if you have important business--

You go first. I'll follow you.

Yes.

You have five minutes.

Okay.

I would like to invite you

to invest in my team.

I would like an amount

equal to what UAC CORP invested

in the Red Racing team.

Your top competitor, Mr. Tony,

has also invested in the Red Racing team.

Are you going to let this opportunity

to expand into the market slip away?

My X-Hunter team

has a racer named Pit Babe.

He is a superstar racer

who has won many championships.

I don't think you could find

a better team than this.

Tell me what percentage

of the prize money you want.

Excuse me,

but I'm afraid the winning prize

is not worth my investment.

But UAC CORP is now one step ahead.

If you don't act now,

do you accept to let

Beyond Group lose forever?

Are you sure Pit Babe

can beat the Red Racing team?

I've never lacked confidence in Babe.

Babe is the greatest racer

I have ever met.

Our next story is creating

big waves in the business world.

Beyond Group has decided

to jump into the racing world.

It is considered a solution to the game

where competitors like UAC CORP

recently announced their

investment in the Red Racing team.

Mr. Pete Peeraphon,

Beyond's new executive vice president,

has announced he will be investing

in the X-Hunter team.

Keep an eye

on what's going on with Mr. Pete.

I want to know what kind of strategy

Beyond Group will come up with.

Welcome to a new chapter of X-Hunter.

From now on, our team doesn't have

to stress about money anymore.

Uncle, don't tell me that our team

has hit the jackpot.

Hey, of course.

Uncle, it’s better to come clean

about the deal you made with him.

Don't tell me we have to take on

odd jobs besides racing.

Hey!

I told you guys

that Mr. Pete doesn't want anything.

We just need to win every match

against the Red Racing team,

then put his brand

on our cars and uniforms.

That's all. Let's drink.

Let's drink.

From now on,

I will push all of us to compete

in both junior and senior races.

Practice to your fullest.

And now, let's go win the championship!

Cheers for X-Hunter!

Bottoms up!

Hey!

Did you get the car from Mr. Tony?

Does it run quickly?

It's not that good.

It still needs a lot of tuning.

Don't be stressed.

With just this car, the X-Hunter team

couldn't dream of matching our horsepower.

It's an easy win, right?

Don't you know?

People who think like that

are the first to lose.

Right now,

the X-Hunter team

is being supported by Beyond Group.

If you're careless like that,

you really will lose.

Hmm.

I think…

getting a new car is useless.

If Babe ends up unable to drive,

then that's it, right?

Oops!

What's wrong with you?

What does that mean?

What are you gonna do to Babe?

No, I'm not going to do anything.

But other people might. Who knows…

Let's just say

you're better off staying still.

You can come thank me later,

okay?

Bye-bye, friend.

Please come in.

Please have a seat.

Make yourself comfortable.

How have things been

since you moved to Thailand?

Has everything been okay?

Everything has been fine.

There's something

that I'd like your help with.

Winner is about to do something

to X-Hunter’s top driver.

I don't think that's a good thing.

So why have you come to tell me?

Babe is on the opposing team,

and it has nothing to do with us.

Well, you are the team owner.

If we actually win

the championship this season,

you don't want to be criticized, right?

PRACTICE TOMORROW

BETTER DRINK SOME MILK

IT'S BETTER TO EAT NUTRITIOUS THINGS

I STOCKED UP ON SOY MILK

TO MAKE SURE YOU WOULDN'T BE HUNGRY

It's better to eat nutritious things.

I stocked up on soy milk

to make sure you wouldn't be hungry.

I just give in a little,

and you start acting like my dad.

Didn't you say you would be back

in a half hour?

The file was damaged,

so I had to make a new one for customers.

Why aren't you asleep yet?

I was asleep, but I caught your scent.

Didn’t you say I don’t smell?

You don't smell bad.

Your scent smells good.

So you’re really going to keep sleeping?

So what if I’m going to keep sleeping?

Hmm.

I probably won't do anything.

I'll just say…

Sweet dreams.

And do you want to have sweet dreams?

Hmm…

Hurry up.

I want to have sweet dreams.

Way.

I got more evidence.

- Let's see it.

- Look.

Alan,

why is Babe's car strangely slow today?

Did you reduce its speed?

Huh?

No.

So why?

You truly deserve to be a king.

Don't forget to teach me

some cornering techniques.

I have taught you a lot.

Learn to memorize some of them.

With me in your car like this,

won't it be too heavy?

It was.

Actually, it was very heavy.

So heavy that we couldn't measure

Babe’s speed.

It's okay.

We'll measure the speed next time.

This round was just a practice round.

From now on,

Charlie will be on the field with us.

As for his position…

consider him Babe's apprentice.

Babe.

I'd like to talk to you.

But I'd like to talk in private.

So, are you going to tell me

what you want to talk about?

What's up?

He's tricking you, Babe.

A video editor wouldn't be able

to get into a luxury car like that.

Isn't it just a car?

It could be his customer's car.

Here, look.

Now, how are you going to defend him?

They went up to the condo together,

looking like they were so close.

Haven't I warned you

to watch out for this guy?

Isn't it strange?

He arrived at the same time as UAC CORP

became a sponsor for Red Racing.

What will we do

if our team’s information gets leaked?

Don't you know how powerful money is?

You don't have to worry.

I can beat them anyway.

This isn't just about winning or losing.

It's about safety.

You know that, right?

They'll do anything to bring you down.

And if they do something crazy

or break the rules, what will you do?

Look, I'm not blaming you

for taking this guy on as your hookup,

like all the others before.

I understand that you rely on him

to relieve your stress before races.

But I want to remind you

about the situation between you and him.

If he is a friend with benefits,

then don't treat him

as anything more than that.

Go back to being the old you.

Didn't you tell me before

not to tie myself down to anyone?

No one in this world truly loves us.

Everyone who comes into our lives

is hoping for some benefit.

Do you really think Charlie

will be different from the others?

Okay, I get it.

Let's go.

Am I not doing it well?

Or what would you like?

It's not that.

Oh.

So what's the matter?

I didn’t send anyone after you.

Someone sent this to me.

Who sent it to you?

The point is, whose car did you get into?

A customer's.

He just happened to be passing by,

so he let me ride with him.

Are you sure?

I'm sure.

I don't know who sent it to you,

but they definitely want us to fight.

Is there anything else you'd like to ask?

No.

So

let's go take a shower, shall we?

I'll go prepare it for you.

Go back to being the old you.

Didn't you tell me before

not to tie myself down to anyone?

No one in this world truly loves us.

Everyone who comes into our lives

is hoping for some benefit.

Why are you up so early today?

The smell of food woke me up.

Ah!

I'm sorry.

I forgot that you are sensitive to smells.

This dish is spaghetti

with a truffle cream sauce and ham.

This is

spaghetti bolognese and pork ba*ls.

Which dish do you choose?

Hmm,

it's delicious.

Next time, buy it again.

Have you been awake for a long time?

Did you sleep well last night?

I slept really well all night,

so I had a lot of energy

to exercise this morning.

I edited the video a bit,

then I prepared breakfast for you.

Today is a holiday.

Do you want to go anywhere?

Today, I have an appointment

with a customer.

The same customer?

No, it's another person.

My job doesn't earn much money,

so I have to work on many things

at the same time.

Do you want me to drive you?

Oh, it's okay.

I don’t want to bother you.

You’ve got qualifiers tomorrow too.

You should rest.

On the left.

Okay, thank you.

- Thanks.

- Thanks

Oh!

- Bro.

- Haven't seen you for many days.

I missed you.

How are you?

- It's hard.

- Hello.

Hello.

Hey, Babe.

Take it down a notch.

There's a qualifying round tomorrow.

Don’t get a hangover.

Acting like my father again.

Charlie didn't come with you?

Forget him!

BABE, WHERE ARE YOU?

BABE, WHAT TIME ARE YOU COMING HOME?

I'M WAITING FOR YOU.

BABE, PLEASE ANSWER ME.

Babe.

Why are you back so late?

Why do you reek of alcohol?

Don't be nosy.

But you have a qualifying round tomorrow.

Why did you drink so much?

You're just here for sex.

Don't interfere in my life.

When I get back,

what I do is up to me, got it?

Babe, let's talk.

Let's talk about it, Babe.

Babe.

- Babe, listen.

- Damt it!

Babe, are you okay?

I'm okay.

What are you doing?

Normally, you have to concentrate

before you race.

I just want to help.

Not today.

- Babe.

- Babe.

- Babe.

- Babe.

Hey!

- Babe.

- Babe.

- Babe.

- You’re snitching to Mr. Tony like a brat.

Let's go, Babe!

Babe.

You can do it, Babe!

We're here filming

from the qualifiers.

Mr. Sonic, please explain

to Ringside Racing people

what a qualifying day is.

It means if you score well today,

then you’ll get

a good starting position tomorrow.

As for the fun and the excitement,

it's definitely no different

from the actual race day.

Let's start with the qualifying round.

The lead car is Pit Babe from X-Hunter.

Followed by Kim and Winner

from Red Racing Team.

In fourth place is Way from X-Hunter.

Winner and Way chase each other closely.

Kim tried to find an opening

to overtake Pit Babe.

Kim ripped out to his right

but didn't have a chance.

At this time, the ranking has not changed.

Babe is leading.

Here, our Babe is leading as usual.

He is the King of the Hallow.

Everyone who comes

into our life is hoping for benefits.

Haven't I warned you

to watch out for this guy?

I am Babe's boy.

Kim almost found a way to overtake him.

Pit Babe is still on defense.

- No one really loves us.

- I'm not bored with you.

Oh my gosh, Pit Babe lost control.

As for Kim from Red Racing,

he is already looking

for a way to overtake.

I'm not bored with you.

I'll take care of you

until you're bored of me.

Oh, Pit Babe lost control

and left the field.

It's not easy anymore.

Kim is in the lead,

followed by Winner and Way.

Kim just passed him!

Kim has taken the lead.

Pit babe made it back onto the track

and tried to accelerate along.

Pit Babe is in fourth.

Accelerate to overtake Way

and climb to third.

He's seriously fast, overtaking Winner

and chasing after Kim.

Pit Babe squeezes into a curve

but still can't pass.

Into the final turn,

they’re neck and neck.

Kim still defends against Pit Babe.

Pit Babe tries to find a way to overtake,

but in the end, he wasn't in time.

Kim and Red Racing advance to number one.

Followed by Pit Babe

from X-Hunter, Winner and Way.

Way, drink some water first.

It's unbelievable

that Pit Babe

King of the Hallow

would perform below his standard.

Have you prepared yourself?

Your downfall is coming.

- What did you say!

- Babe.

- Babe!

- Babe.

NEXT EPISODE

So, can I compensate

by being the boyfriend instead?

Finally, you’re home.

Have you forgotten?

That you are Daddy's favorite son.

Didn't I tell you not to use violence

to hurt other teams?

Can’t you stop playing dirty for once?

Be careful. It’s still inflamed.

It won’t heal like this.

It's best to be alone.

You can’t trust love.

What did I do wrong?
