Excuse me?

Excuse me?

l'm sory, but do you mind
if l take those?

- What?
- Those empty bottles

- These?
- Yes

- Sure Go ahead...
- Hold on

Thank you

Hey

- Yeah?
- What are you going to do with those?

- What else? l'll sell them
- They won't be worth much

Do you know how much
you can get with one ofthese?



5 cents And three ofthese? 15 cents

What's 15 cents evey day
for 365 days?

- 5 times 5 is...
- $51.15

That's your water bill
for one whole year

Penny P?nchers

What l'm saying is, the applicants with great
test scores are that much more invested

so they're more likely to quit and run

ifthey get a betterjob offer

But l couldn't care less
about my paycheck

l'm satisfied doing myjob and
getting paid just enough

l'm the perFect employee because
l won't be a financial burden!

lfthat's the case, why don't
you work for the government?

Those tests you have to take
are really hard

You majored in Chinese classics?
So? Do you speak good Chinese?



lf knowing a lot of Chinese characters
makes you fluent in Chinese,

then Koreans would be the best
English speakers in the world

But l do know a lot of Chinese proverbs

And how would you describe this
situation using a Chinese proverb?

''The fool goes aRer
what he cannot have?''

- Did you see that wild boar?
- Boar?

Why does that have to
take so much money?

Because l have to pay a fee
for each job application

You've heard of our generation,
how we're the 880 dollar generation?

What's that now?

Basically, it's so hard to
get a job these days,

that it takes 880 dollars a month
to pay application fees

That's what our generation is called

That's how companies make their
money nowadays, like colleges

Won't the fees be higher
for the big companies?

You bet,

since they're big corporations and all

Won't you need at least 1000 dollars?

1000!?

Wow! l swear, ifyou were born
in Finland, you'd be the President!

Thanks, mom,
l think 1000 should cover it

Do you have a bo_riend? No?

l'm sory l'm really sory

Why are you always so late, Marlon?

Can't we meet on weekends?

Why? Because there aren't
any guys in our club?

Well... That's one thing,

but we look like a bunch
of unemployed losers

driving around on scooters
ifwe meet on weekdays

Why would you say that?
Unemployed people need hobbies, too

Actually, l got a job

Does that mean you can't come
on our rides anymore?

Yeah Today will be my last day

- That's too bad
- Congratulations!

Tenants have to bring their ID
and lease contracts by this week

to file your applications

ARer that, your moving assistance
costs will be wired to your account

And you'll all 2 months to move out,

but no later than May 31

How much do l get if l have
mo people in my family?

Two people... That's $9486.OO

What ifyou live by yourself?

That's 6... No, $l,06800.OO

lOOO?

l just got a call and
they said l got the job

Congratulations l didn't know
you had it in you

Sory Sory about that

Today's my last day here, too,
so l'll pay for these drinks

- These soR drinks won't cut it
- What?

Why don't you take us all
out for real drinks?

Mint can help pay, too!

You should do that
We should all go out for a drink

- What do you think?
- You're so funny

We're free anytime
Really, we're always free

- You should do this for us
- Ugh...

- Excuse me...
- Yes?

Can l ask where you're
going to be working?

SK Telecom

Stupid...

l should have said Samsung Whatever

Hello

You said you'd have it for me by today

- Oh, you mean the rent
- Yes

Take it out of my deposit

Your deposit's long gone
You used it up a long time ago

You mean l used up the last
of it three months ago?

l told you a million times l need
the rent to pay my bills!

You should have thought of some
other way to pay your bills!

l'm expecting some money
my way soon, so relax

Hey, your skin is practically glowing!

You know l'll keep my word

You know l'll never let you down

J
Well

have a good night!

What am l going to do with that boy!

Ma'am?

Here That's $1000 including mo months'
rent and 600 dollars in overdue rent

Thank you

No, l should thank you! l'm so glad l don't
have to see that good-for-nothing anymore

So... If l got this correctly,
Ku Jang-il won't actually

be moving into the house, will he?

No

Ku Jang-il and Ku Hong-sil You and your
father live right next to each other?

Yes Our family likes
staying close together

Why don't you live together
in one house?

We're close, but we're not that close

l see... Would you like the money
to be sent to mo accounts or...

No l'll take them both
in my bank account

Wait, so that's $l,068 times mo...
That's... Where's my calculator?

lt should be $14,136.OO

Yes?

Will you bring a new deposit of
5000 dollars by tomorrow

so we can write up another contract?

lfyou can't do that,
l'm bringing in another tenant

Do you understand what l'm saying?

- What?
- Don't forget, l need it by tomorrow

Wait! How am l supposed to get
5000 dollars by tomorrow! Ma'am!

We were about to call you
We're glad you came down here

The deferment period has ended on
your student loan of $20,OOO.OO

and until now Haenam Fund
has been paying the interest...

Sir, are you here today on
some other business?

Didn't you want to speak to us
about something?

Congratulations
Your savings of 30,OOO dollars has matured

Thank

We're vey sory This has been Eveybody
Cash, where eveybody gets access to cash!

Hey! Hello? Hello...

Cash for Kidneys

Ugh... l don't know...

Who is this? Hello?

Yes? Who's this?

Mint?

l got a job because l was
running out of money,

but there's nothing great
about being a secretay

ARer a few days at the job,
l wanted to give it up again

People need to do mo
kinds ofthings in life,

the things they want to do,
and the things they should do

lfyou don't do what you
should do when you're young,

you won't get to do the things
you want to do when you're older

l don't want to work, either,
but what else can l do?

But Ji-woong, l think that...

ls it all right if l call you Ji-woong?

Sure

- Did l keep you waiting?
- Hey

- You want to wait for me upstairs?
- Okay

- Miss?
- Yes?

What are you doing?

Oh... l like a lot of sugar in my coffee

This is more like it

S?ster

Sory

What is it?

Ji-woong! Something terrible
has happened!

- Why? Did your husband beat you again?
- That's not important right now

This wild boar came into mom's store

and destroyed evemhing!

- Why did the boar do that?
- How should l know? l'm not the boar!

Mom's fine, thank goodness,
but what'll we do with the store?

But mom was supposed to
send me $1 ,OOO today...

How can you say that!
Mom lost evemhing she has,

and you're asking for money?
How could you!

Why?

Our auditors will question me ifyou
have over $150,OOO.OO in your account

But l don't have anyone l can trust

Not even your family or friends?

Well, there is one other way

There are brokers who sell bank
accounts under false names,

mostly using the identities
of homeless people

l don't know ifthat's safe...

Unless you have someone
you can completely trust,

that might be the better option

We'll give it more thought

l have to go back to the office

- Okay
- You can finish that first

- Don't you like coffee?
- l do, but this is lukewarm

Good l like lukewarm coffee

- l have to pull an all-nighter an_ay so...
- No, l'll drink it

l can finish that off for you...

Let's go

- Are you okay?
- l felt queasy all of a sudden...

- Are you sure you're okay?
- Yeah

Are you vey busy these days?

lt's a little messy

l'm moving out tomorrow

Do you like vodka?

- What?
- Let's stop drinking now

Right You have to get up early to move...

Wait!

- That'll be 2 dollars
- Okay... Hold on...

l'm sory but l'm short 50 cents

Can l pay you back later?

- You don't have enough in your balance
- What?

There must be a mistake

42 cents

Listen That holds three condoms,

so you think l can get mo for $1 .50?

Or

you can help me out and pay
the 50 cents and l'll give you one

You'll need it one ofthese days,

even if it's not right now
l'm telling you you'll find

yourself needing one ofthose

Look! UFO!

Oh... damn

Breath M?nts

At least

l got to touch her breasts...

You won't find a better place to stay in
for mo months What do you think?

- l like it
- Right? That's good

But what's all this?

Why are you still here!

What am l supposed to
do with all this stuff?

Hury up and get on out!
Let's go sign the lease

Ma'am! Ma'am!

- Stop calling me that!
- What else do l call you?

l'm sory you had to see that

There are brokers who sell bank
accounts under false names,

mostly using the identities
of homeless people

Hey

Hey!

- How old are you?
- l'm 26

l'm 21 That makes us
practically the same age

Do you want a drink?

- Pour yourself one
- Do you have any beers?

- Ifyou don't want any, forget it
- No, no

Thank you l mean, thanks

- Do you have a place to go?
- l go wherever the wind takes me

How can you joke at a time like this?

l have to keep my sense of
humor up and running

ls there anything you can do?

Me? l can do

a dog impression

lt's a miracle you survived this long

l made it this far, so l can make it again

Do you know what the Bible
tells us not to do 365 times?

lt tells us, do not fear
Worying isn't going to change anything

You know all residents here have to
move out in mo months, right?

- Really? Why?
- Because of redevelopment

What about me and people like me?
Where will we go?

Oh, right l got kicked out

l have an idea Do you want to make
some money over the next 2 months?

- Money? How?
- You'll find out soon enough

- How much can l make?
- How much do you want to make?

- Maybe... 5,OOO dollars?
- Okay. 5,OOO dollars

Really? l can really make $5,OOO
in mo months? Really?

But you have to promise

to do whatever l say

Are you sure this isn't going to
involve kinky stuff?

lfyou don't want to do it, fine

No! l'll do whatever you say! Anything!

- Fine Now pour me a drink
- Okay

Here

First, give me all the money you have,
down to the last cent

Okay

- 4 dollars and 16 cents This is it?
- Yeah

Now listen carefully to
what l'm about to say

One, nothing ever comes for free

l'm taking this as rent

Bring your sheets so you can sleep here

Go to bed early since we have
to get up early tomorrow

- Listen Do you like me or something?
- What?

Otherwise, why would you
suddenly be so nice to me?

ldiot

That hurts... Ow... That hurts...

Bring only what you
think you really need

And it can't fill up
more than three boxes

What do l do with the rest?

- And that gas stove is...
- This won't be of any use

Then pay me for the scrap metal
It's 33 cents per kilo, right?

What about that table?

That's not good for anything
Who'd want that?

No! Not this!

Do you know the biggest mistake
people make when they buy things?

They can't distinguish bemeen
what they need and what they want

And most ofthe things they want
are things they don't need

This is a good example

- l need this
- Forwhat?

Well...

l still need it

You wouldn't understand
This is more than a scooter to me

He's been with me for the ten years l've
been in Seoul He's like my little brother

l even gave him a name

- What's his name?
- Audi...

You can't even afford gas for an Audi

Please You can't take this away
l need this Please?

Are you sure you don't have
any money lying around?

Yeah l think l'm all set l don't have
any money waiting for me an_here

Are you sure about that?

l completely forgot about this deposit!

Wait here

Here Here's 111 dollars for your stuff
we sold and the $4.16 you gave me

l opened a 5,OOO dollar account for you

Put all the money you have
in that account right now

Okay...

Ku Hong-sil? Why is it in your name?

l'm a VIP so if it's in my name,
you get 120/o more interest

Still...

You can't withdraw money until it matures,
and you'll be keep the book

l won't steal that from you

You said you'll do as l say Forget it

What time is it?

10:46

You made 191dollars and
16 cents morning alone

Deposit evey single cent
you make into that account

And you'll see for yourself
how much money you're making

Okay...

- Do you know how to drive?
- Yeah

lt's the place that was featured
on the 113rd episode?

Wait here

l was wondering who went
around selling these...

- Let's go
- Didn't she want it?

One, nothing in this world is worthless

- How much did l say this is?
- 150 dollars

What about this?

Thank you

Some young lady came and asked
me 200 dollars for this

Oh... And take a look
The poster will look way nicer

ifyou put these up next to it

- How much are those?
- They're 10 dollars each

- l don't know about this...
- What's your problem?

lsn't there a... more legitimate
way to make money?

lt doesn't matter what you put in your
mouth, it'll all end up in the toilet

Legitimate, my ass

But is it really okay for us
to take those things?

lfwe don't take them,
someone else will

You heard about those African antelopes,
right? Cheetahs prey on them

Do you know what's most important
for those antelopes?

That they don't ty to outrun the cheetah
They ty to outrun the other antelopes

What a great way with words you have...

How much work do you
think you did today?

About 100 dollars' worth?

One, always ask for more It won't hurt

You're done for the day,
so go do whatever you want

Put that money in your account
as soon as you see a bank

One, mo, three!

$200!

Oh!

- What do you want?
- Can l ask you something?

What kind of girls do guys like?

Well... It depends

What ifyou had to choose bemeen
a talkative girl and a quiet girl?

lf l had to choose... A quiet girl?

Hey You're here

A 6 to 10/o return isn't bad for bonds,

but l think we can do more

l think you can consider increasing
the share of stocks in your po Molio

What do you say? Or do you want
to stick to safe investments?

Fine

ls evemhing all right?

You've been so quiet today Did you give
any thought to what we talked about?

Okay And we can use
his name for mo months?

l'll open an account in his name,
so you can wire your money there

Who is he? Is he someone you can trust?

ls he your bo_riend?

lfyou get a good return from
this account, give him a reward

Reward? How much?

ln most cases, it's about 100/o
ofthe investment

Gwan-woo, l've been thinking...

The real reward would not
be about giving him fish,

but rather to teach him how to fish,
do you know what l'm saying?

l mean, l'm not saying this
because l want that money for myself

but really, how will it help him
to have a little extra cash?

Wouldn't it be a much better reward to
teach him how to live a decent life instead?

Oh...

Sure...

What are you doing?

- Hury... Hury...
- Move

Okay!

l need to go...

What...

- Don't you have a TV in here? Huh?

- They all cost money

But you can't live without
having a relationship

l do fine without one

l'm saying you need a real
relationship to connect with people

You need to add meaning
to your life somehow

l don't need meaning,
as long as l have a goal

He should get a job soon, too

Who's Chang-geun?

- Why would he do that?

What's going on?

What do you mean what's going on?
You're the reason

Chang-geun hasn't gotten a job yet
because you keep wasting his time!

What? What does that
have to do with you, lady?

What? Lady? What did you call me?
Do you know who l am?

Mother! Calm down!

lt's not Song-i's fault
Chang-geun hasn't found a job yet!

Don't shout! Think of
your blood pressure!

How old are you?
Why are you talking like that?

Excuse me? Do you even know me?

- Hey! You come over here!
- Kyung-joo! No!

Song-i Don't do this

Think ofyour health! Calm down!

Chang-geun! l'm here
with Ji-woong and his...

Song-i! Wait! Let's talk outside!

Hello?

Mother! Are you okay?

l knew this was strange...

Chang-geun's not the type of
boy who can't find a job...

Cheer up, mother
You still have Ji-woong!

about your mother than me

lt's not that l'm worried about
her high blood pressure

Fine l'll see you later

Okay Drive safe

- Well... It's...
- Did you spend the rest?

No! No! l lent it to a friend
l have this friend Chang-geun

He said he needed money
for surgey, so...

Surgey? Why would you
Iend him money though?

Because... Because...

lt's for his hemorrhoids He was
embarrassed about telling anyone else

He only told me about it, so...

You're in no situation to
help someone else

But how could l ignore a friend whose
asshole's hurting? l had to help him out

ldiot How would you help anyone?

Hey You think because l stay quiet
you can keep talking like that?

You can barely make ends meet

What's it to you what
l do with my money?

This is why you can't even
afford a place to stay

What about you? Why are
you so crazy about money?

This is why you don't
have a single friend

Whatever Why is this
account in your name?

Are you planning on taking
offwith my money?

What? Forget this

l'll close your account tomorrow
Take the money and get out of my life

Hey!

You're seeing each other, aren't you?

Because we offer one more burger
coupon ifyou come as a couple

- Oh...
- l guess it's obvious

- We've been dating 200 days
- You must be so happy!

You even have the same blood type!
You're meant to be!

Us?

Does this still hurt?

lt's been five years,
so it doesn't hurt anymore

- Apply pressure to your arm
- Thanks

Miss? It's time to...

Unless you're in a hury, always walk
ifthe distance is under 10 kilometers

You can get exercise,
plus you save money

Yeah You're right

What'll you do ifyou had $200,OOO?

200,OOO? l'd get myself an apartment,

a new car, and go traveling
There's plenty to do with 200,OOO

But that money won't last you forever

You should be thinking ofways
to make even more money

Are you going to spend the rest
ofyour life saving money?

l've been watching you and
l think you have a problem

- What?
- What is it you want to do?

- What l want to do?
- Yes

- Now?
- Now or whenever

There's the problem right there Listen

People need to do mo
kinds ofthings in life,

the things they want to do,
and the things they should do

But you're only worying
about what you should do

You're not leaving any room for
the things you want to do

What ifthat becomes a habit?

ln the end, you won't even know
what it is that you want to do

Think about it Isn't that sad? Huh?

That concert will probably
be held in a big venue

Fortunately, l don't get sick
in big open places

You'll get the tickets?
You don't have to do that...

What do you see it?

Do you know this movie?
Winter Wanderer?

you for money again?

Where did it go?

going to lie to me?

- So you knew...
- Did you think l wouldn't?

l meant to tell you l'm sory

- l knew something was up
- l didn't mean to lie to you, it's just...

When you told us you got a job,
l found myself saying...

What are you talking about?

lf l hadn't told you l had a job,
you wouldn't have gone out with me

- What? So you lied about having a job?
- What were you going to say?

You were cheating on me and you lied?

What's all this?

Our company is doing charity work
to help undernourished kids...

- You said you don't have a job
- Yeah l don't,

but l still have to help the kids...

Kyung-joo,

But this could be for the best

Sysop! You should go out with Sysop

He'd make a much better bo_riend

Who spilled all this food? What a waste
The bride's looking for you

- It's not what you think
- Wait... Are you mo still...

What does she want with a pig like that?
Hah! Doesn't she have any taste?

Wait Should l be laughing right now?

So, is your friend feeling better
from the hemorrhoids?

He says he thinks of me evey
time he takes a dump!

Really?

Yuck! Why'd l do that?
What's taking her so long? Hong-sil!

Hey! Hong-sil!

Yuck! You said you'd be
back in 20 minutes!

- Has it been 20 minutes already?
- It's been 30!

My dad went bankrupt while
we were still at mom's funeral

He ran away, and his creditors
came to the funeral

They took evemhing,
including the condolence money

l had enough to get her cremated,
but l couldn't lay her ashes to rest

because l was short 50 dollars

l was taking the bus home
when l saw this tree

There was a tree like this right
outside the house we lived in

l don't know why l'm telling you
this l must be hungy Let's go eat

Yeah

- They're building a golf course?
- Yes.

Hey Move a little that way

- You want to buy land? Where we saw?
- Yeah What do you think?

lt's a good idea Buy it

Shouldn't you at least
give it some thought?

What's there to think about?
If l were you, l'd do it

You should do what you want
And you want to buy that land, don't you?

Don't you know that stoy about

the rich old guy who said this
to his family before he died?

Listen In Korea, it's all about
real estate! Then he died

You should do what you want

No one would sell this land

They'll get compensation money once
the golf course permit is greenlighted

How much will they get?

lt'll be at least 10 dollars
per 4 square yards

What if l pay more than that?

But that's forest land, so the owners
will only sell the land in big parcels

You must be loaded

- Are you sure about this?
- Come in

Here's the landowner, Mr Nam
He's in landscaping

You can say all the trees
in this town belong to him

He even owns the Rabbit Karaoke
next door

Hello

- Actually, it's not me, it's her...
- Oh Have a seat

- $120,OOO?
- Yes

Do you need it right away?

Okay The client gets
what the client wants

Let's see... First l'll close the account
under Chun Ji-woong's name

Actually, can you leave a little
behind, as his reward?

How much?

Let's say 1 ,OOO dollars

That's not like you

Do you think you can wait a week
to close your accounts?

Some ofthese will give you a big return
when they mature,

but you won't get that
ifyou close them today

What do you want to do?
It's your money, so you decide

Here's a copy ofthe deeds,
so you can take a look at that...

- Here's the deposit money
- Yes

lfyou don't have the rest for me
in 10 days, the contract's void

Yes l'll pay you in a week

This place is nice

Of course It has to be nicer than
that other house This one's bigger

Didn't you say you live alone?
This place is a little big for one person

l'm just taking a look at it

Wait a minute Is this real pork belly?

l told you it is

- It smells like pork...
- And it's Korean local pork, too

Cheers!

You worked hard for the last 2 months

l told you all you needed
to do was do as l say

lf it weren't for that 1 ,OOO,
l'd have exactly 5,OOO dollars

l knew you weren't getting
that money back

Actually, that money was...

Never mind

ln any case, l'll be skipping
this town in a few days

- Did you look at some apartments?
- l have to start looking soon You?

l have to start soon, too

Do you think that money's
enough to find you a place?

Well...

This is Chilean pork!

By the way, l wanted to ask you this...

Why did you decide to help
me mo months ago?

- Because l felt bad for you
- Really? Is that it?

Yeah Why?

l thought there might have
been another reason

Why don't you go ahead
and sing me a song?

Song?

Should l? Hold on

Nothing ever comes for free
That'll be one dollar

- Ifyou give me 2, l'll give you a kiss

Are you drunk or something?

- Hury up and sing
- Sing Okay Here goes

Nothing beats fried poop
when you're having your rice,

and your diarrhea cury

and for dessert, how about
some cockroach poo?

One more time!

For dessert, how about
some cockroach poo?

- What kind of song is that?
- What?

Gross!

That's hilarious!

Where are you moving to?

Will you throw this away?

- Hey! Hey!
- What do you want?

l'm just curious... Are you and that
girl living together or something?

Yeah? So?

l don't know what that girl was thinking...
One day, she said she'll give me

money for it and the next, she's...

What are you saying?

l'm not supposed to say anything
Be careful with that!

Hey! Be careful with that!

Shoes?

Oh...

What's this?

Ku Jang-il is your father's name, right?

l don't believe this shit!
Who are you? Some kind of con artist?

What did you think you were doing?

Get your stamp and come with me

Here's your 4,089 dollars and 64 cents

l could slap you right now!

You've got to be kidding

What?

Let's go through it one by one

You didn't have to pay for rent, food,
or bills for 2 whole months

There's l,OOO right there

What! l earned that 5,OOO dollars!

You? You earned it? How?

You'd have never laid eyes on
that money if it wasn't for me!

l should be asking you to pay up!
And now you're asking me?

The landlords here were getting
rid oftheir tenants

to get the moving fees Did you
think you would have lasted long?

Do you think l'm upset
because ofthe money?

Why else?

l'd feel better ifyou said you helped
me because you really felt bad

What about you?

Would you have stayed here
if it wasn't for my offer of money?

Hey! You don't have an_here to go!

Fine! Leave!

Stupid...

- Hello?
- Is this Chun Ji-woong?

Yes?

Who? No l don't know that name

Mr Chun You're free to go

ls this her?

Yes

Then it's almost certain
he was an accomplice

Yang Gwan-woo and she
disappeared around the same time

This woman is on the Hong Kong
financial blacklist for fraud

What's going to happen to my money?

We're a little shocked because
this has never happened before

But our clients can be compensated
ifthey were victims

of an employee's illegal practice

- Really?
- But...

- you are Ku Hong-sil, correct?
- Yes

You and some other clients cannot
be compensated by our firm

These accounts have been personally
managed by Gwan-woo and not by us

No investment bank in the world can
be held liable for something like this

And were you aware our private
banking center

can only be used by clients with cash
holdings of $500,OOO and up?

You must have used our
PB services for free,

using your relationship with Yang

Or did you give him something in return?

There was more than money being
passed around bemeen you mo,

am l right?

Oh!

You come here

What the fuck did you say to her?

Do you know how hard she
worked for that money?

Let me go

What the fuck were you saying to her?

- Go
- Hong-sil

lfyou keep following me, l'll kill you

Hong-sil! Wait!

Hey! Don't do it Listen Don't do this

- Okay Okay...
- Shit!

The total's 131 dollars,
with the ambulance costing 50 dollars

Mom...

What do l do now?

Hong-sil!

Hong-sil!

Why did you leave like that? Huh?

Weren't you ever going to see me again?
Where did you move to?

When a friend's in trouble,
you need to help each other out!

- Who? Who's going to help me?
- It's...

You? You'll help me?
Do you have any money?

You're...

l'll do it

What are we saying we should do?

What are a couple of losers
like us going to do together?

lt's hard enough struggling on my own,

so will you please stop
bugging me and leave?

He said he was too busy
running away to get any sleep

l've never seen a guy sleeping like that
aRer getting arrested

Did you get the money back?

lt turns out Yang Gwan-woo was
a victim in this, too

He was completely had by
that woman Michelle

Oh, there was one account
that still had some money in it

Detective, this isn't my money

Ku Hong-sil told me to give it to you
She said you'll know what it's for

Detective Choi?

This apartment's more ground level
than basement,

as you know It's really ground level

You can move in tomorrow
Did you bring the money?

Yes

lt's this tree, this one!

The landscaper came to pick it up earlier

Chang-geun?

when l most need them!

Hello

Are you really buying me a new pair?

Sure l wanted to apologize
Go ahead and choose

l've been eyeing this one pair...

Wait!

People like us who don't eat well

instead of unfertilized eggs

And besides, these kids must be
so lonely all by themselves, right?

- Isn't that right, little hen?
- What do you think you're doing?
