Rinse your mouth
Oh, use that cup and spit in the bowl
You've never been to the dentist, right?
Yes, this is my first time
I can tell
Just a little more
I'm gaining merit by giving a monk
a free dental check-up
What merit?
I'm just like anyone else
I'd like to be normal, but some
mysterious force has a hold on me
It keeps me cloaked in saffron robes
that I can't seem to shake off
I used to dream of being a DJ...
...of owning a comic book store
I turned on a radio show from the city,
and it was playing pop music
- You listen to American music?
- Yes, I listen to modern music
but I didn't have a phone...
...so I sent a letter instead
and introduced myself
The DJ replied and invited me to dinner
Over dinner, he asked me to be a DJ,
but I turned him down
I don't know why. I always wanted to...
You know, I'm a singer
A singer? Really?
- What kind of songs?
- Mostly Thai country music. It's a hobby
I don't listen to much of that
Open up
You're the one on the bulletin board?
On the board? Yes
You won some kind of prize, right?
- Yes
- Dentist of the Year
Let me cover your eyes
Ouch!
Sorry
Is this a check-up or a concert?
I'm still waiting
What?
Let me play. Just for a bit
Excuse me, Doctor
Would you like to have lunch?
No, thanks, I'm not hungry yet
Is there something
you wanted to see me about?
Doctor...
...can we get engaged?
Is everything all right?
No, it's not
Doctor...
My stomach is rumbling
Have you ever been in love?
Well...not exactly
Then you won't understand how I feel
I feel as if my heart's on fire
I can't eat, I can't sleep
- It's like...
- I understand
I once knew a man...
I once met a man
at the Farmer's Market
- Are you interested in that orchid?
- Yes
It's an auspicious plant
that will bring you luck
It also glows in the dark
- Glows in the dark?
- Yes
I have a picture I can show you
Can I help you?
- How much?
- It's a wild orchid. 25,000 baht
I bred it myself.
Its form is very distinct
It's not hard to grow.
It doesn't like direct sunlight
It prefers to be in the shade
You saw I liked it
so you jacked up the price, right?
But it also glows in the dark
I have pictures I can show you
Here you go
It costs too much
Look at the picture. Can you see?
Excuse me, how much is this?
Which one?
That one is 250 baht
- 25,000?
- Yes
It must be an electric orchid!
I'm not feeling so good, Doctor
But if it makes you happy...
...please continue with your story
I'd like to...
...but I'm afraid it will upset you
It's too late for that, Doctor
