We Not Naughty (2012) - full transcript

It's my birthday today.
Here's my treat for you.

It's my birthday tomorrow.
Here's my treat for you.

We just want to bully you.

I didn't go to your school today,
but your teacher called

and said you rejected the cakes
which your classmates treated you to

and even dirtied their clothes

when you threw
the cakes back at them.

That's not what happened.

They threw the cakes on my face.
I didn't retaliate.

Are you saying your teacher lied?

She didn't lie.
She was taken in by them.



It's so obvious that you're lying,
and you're a terrible liar.

How dare you cook up a story
to deceive me.

I'm not lying. It's the truth.

You'd better own up
or I'll punish you.

If you can come clean with me,
I'll spare you.

Pass me the cane.
Pass it to me, come on.

Pass me the cane now.

Are you going to own up? Tell me.

Are you going to own up? Tell me.

Okay, I did throw the cakes
on their faces.

Why?

That's because I don't like them.

Stretch out your hand.

You said you wouldn't hit me
if I owned up.



- How dare you talk back?
- Don't hit me.

- How dare you talk back?
- No, please.

- You're so naughty.
- That's enough.

You promised you wouldn't hit him
and yet, you did after he confessed.

You accused him of lying,
but you lied too.

I'm educating the kid.
Can you not confuse him?

I'm confusing him? You're the one
causing the confusion.

Let me tell you. Not every lie is bad
and lying isn't necessarily wrong.

In this society,
kids must learn to think smart

and lie when they have to.

Ask yourself. Just ask yourself.

How many times do you lie in a day?

When did I lie? Don't malign me.

You didn't? According to experts

an average person lies
more than twenty times a day.

Just think about it and
stop screaming your head off.

You're the one who's lying.

Oh dear, that must be the salesman.

Bao, stop crying.

Go and tell the salesman that
your mum isn't at home.

So I'm supposed to lie to him?

Yes. Go lie to him. Get going.

- Hello.
- My mum says she's not at home.

Your mother says she's not in?
Tell your mother I'm from Delphin.

Last week, she made an appointment
with us at the shopping mall.

So I'm here today to demonstrate
the functions of our vacuum cleaner.

- Yes, I remember.
- Hello.

- I was given a stainless steel pan.
- Yes.

- Please come in.
- Okay.

This Delphin device
is made in Germany.

It can purify the air and
penetrate the layers in a mattress

to remove dust, fibre and dust mites

thus creating a healthy and clean
living environment.

Here, check out
the amount of airborne dust.

That's a lot.

Do you think this device can suck up
the virus that makes people quarrel

so that my family can live together
harmoniously?

Come on. Change into your uniform.

It's time for you to wake up too.

Must I wake you up every day?
You're going to be late.

But I guess that's all right
for your kind of school.

What happened to your hand?

- I just beat up someone.
- So early in the morning?

I was looking for him
for a long time.

He didn't pay off his debt
and even tried to hide.

Actually, your mother is rich.

Ask her to repay your debt

so that you don't have to be
a runner for the loan sharks.

I'm an orphan.
I don't have a mother like her.

I won't turn to her for help
no matter how miserable I am.

Have you done your homework?
Can I copy it?

Homework? Why bother to do homework
in this crappy school?

We're just here so that
we can delay our enlistment.

The bus is here.

How could you do that?

Couldn't you tell that
my wife is pregnant?

How would we know?

We aren't the father anyway.

- Hey, you.
- Forget it. I'm all right anyway.

I'm really all right.

Give me a smile.

Twinkle, twinkle, hug, hug me

I don't mind if you sleep with me

I want you to make me high

Get me crazy in the sky

You wrote the lyrics?
They said you did it so naturally.

- I couldn't tell.
- Of course. I'm the expert.

But it was all just for fun.

She looks really slutty.

- Give me that.
- Let me see that.

Can you share with us what it's like
to sleep with a teacher?

I think... sheesh,
I can't speak good Mandarin.

I'm keeping that to myself.

Your singing really, really sucks.

My grandmother sings better than you.

You look so ugly.

You look like William Hung.

In school, I used to be an expert

in designing and making
remote control systems.

I also represented the school
in creative competitions

and won some awards.

Good. The kids in our school
are all rebellious teenagers.

Once you find a way
to communicate with them

and gain their trust

you'll be able to win them over.

The moment I stepped into
this classroom

and saw all your youthful faces

I was reminded of myself
as a student back in those days.

All of you exude an air of creativity
that fills the entire classroom.

Hello, I'm here to study,
not to see a monkey perform.

Can you stop being so pretentious?

Okay, never mind.

Okay, I just want to ask you
why you think you're here.

Why?

That's because you're the best.

By the way, I forgot
to introduce myself.

My name is CK and... I'm married.

You can call me Mr Liew.
Let me write down my name.

Where's the pen?

Okay.

An expert is around.

That's why machines
can never triumph over man.

There's definitely the wow factor.

But I've already figured this out
in Primary One.

This isn't a good invention
that will benefit society.

It's just a tool for pranksters.
So it's worthless.

The two guys who pushed you
at the bus stop today

are students in my class.

I thought this would only
happen in movies.

If only these were
the odds in lottery.

Wouldn't you be in
for a hard time then?

Not if I can speak their language.

Don't they speak English or Mandarin?

Yes, but teenagers have
a different lingo now.

I'll need time to grasp it.

You'll need time to
grasp their lingo?

Does it mean you'll spend
a lot of time on them?

What about our baby?
Will you have time for us?

Of course.
Our baby will be my top priority.

I've got a fear of pain.

Yes, my wife really has
a fear of pain.

I think we'll choose
the painless method.

No worries, we can do it for you.

You can have a painless delivery.

Thank you.

The police are a bunch of idiots.
All of them should just quit.

Come in.

- Boss.
- Boss.

- Boss.
- Boss.

Why are you so happy?

Nothing. We just pulled
a few pranks on the police.

You pulled a few pranks
on the police?

Is this your way of
getting back at your mother?

Your mother neglected you,
so you indulged in internet gambling

and ended up debt-ridden.

You should count yourself lucky that
you're good at splashing paint.

You managed to pay off two-fifth of
your fifty-thousand-dollar debt

and helped me meet my KPI targets.

Boss, what's KPI?

It's a measure of
your work performance.

My teachers in school are behaving
pretentiously because of KPIs.

But KPIs are good in a way.

Thanks to KPIs, I know that
you're performing well

while the rest of you
are useless bums.

Good grief.

Here's a reward from the big boss.

Thanks.

You'll even get a fair and tender
Hainanese chick from Geylang.

This is authentic Hainanese chicken
from Geylang.

Come on, tuck in.

Come on, let's tuck in.

Are you guys very disappointed?

What were you guys thinking?
You're such sex maniacs.

Fine, I'll take you
to Geylang later, okay?

Come and have your breakfast.

Mum, I'm having menstrual cramps.
I don't want to go to school.

Go take a painkiller
and inform your teacher.

Mum, I'm having menstrual cramps too,
so I can't go to school.

You're so naughty.
You're lying again.

Only girls have menstruation.

Really? Is it different now?

What do you mean?
This has always been a fact.

But Girl, didn't you already have
your menstruation last week?

Why are you having
your period again so soon?

She's lying and putting on an act.
She doesn't dare to go to school now.

Do you know everyone in Singapore
is lambasting and mocking her

for being cloyingly pretentious,
shameless and a downright disgrace?

Her videos have gone viral
on the internet.

Hundreds of thousands of people
are talking about her.

That's enough.

Just mind your own business
and have your breakfast.

Girl, don't be afraid.

I'll go with you to see
your principal tomorrow

and get him to issue a warning
to those who are mocking you.

He has to protect his top student.

Top student? That's no big deal.
Top students are a dime a dozen now.

You've no right to criticise her.

Look at the kind of school you're in
and the kind of school she's in.

She studies in her room
after school every day

while you're always not at home.
So just zip it.

Are you jealous of me?

You're now in the worst polytechnic
in Singapore.

You'd better do something
for yourself before criticising me.

You... I don't need
your stupid comments, okay?

You shut up, okay?

Why did you hit your sister?

She's not my sister. Shit.

Girl, you shouldn't have talked to
your elder brother that way.

Why are you so hot-tempered?

Mum, you scolded Brother
that way too.

He's my son.
I had every right to do that.

Why are you always the one
with such privilege?

Another word from you
and I'll beat you to a pulp.

Have your breakfast.

What's the matter?
Was there an uprising?

You were quarrelling
so early in the morning.

What's wrong with Weijie?

It's all your fault that
your son is incorrigible.

Are you on the morning shift today?

No, I'm going to the casino.

Casino?

Someone's giving me a treat.

After being a taxi driver
for so many years

I've no idea what a casino looks like

though I've been driving passengers
there every day.

Do you remember Ong Lui?

He had a windfall
at the casino yesterday.

Now, he doesn't even want to go home.

He says he wants to win
every cent from the casino

before calling it a day.

He just called and told us to
help him carry his winnings back.

You're really going there?

He's helping us pay the entrance fee
of one hundred dollars.

I'd be dumb to reject him.

It's best to stay away from gambling.
Heed the minister's advice.

As long as you don't gamble,
you'll always be the winner.

The minister told you that?

He was probably
too embarrassed to tell you

how much you could
win from the casino.

Really?

Do you have the capital to gamble?

No, I'm just going there
to look around.

Snap out of it. As the saying goes

those who visit a casino
will end up with nothing.

Good grief, stop cursing me.
You're so vicious.

Like I told you,
I'm just going there to take a look.

Dad, I want to go too.
Bring me along.

It's a place for adults, not kids.

Why?

That's because...

Gambling is meant for adults only.

Why isn't it meant for kids?

That's because gambling is a vice.
It isn't right to gamble.

So kids aren't allowed
to go to the casino.

If gambling is really a vice,
why is there a casino?

And why is Dad going there?

Keep quiet and have your breakfast.
Stop asking questions.

I told you I'm just going there
to take a look.

It's called field research, okay?

Can you bring me along
for the field research too?

You really know how to talk back.

Why do you keep rebutting me?
You have no respect for me.

Are you mad? Why are you beating him
so early in the morning?

Stop pointing fingers. Can't you see
he's getting from bad to worse?

You'd better rein your son in.

- Discipline your son.
- He's your son too.

National Creative Invention
Competition.

Based on the results of
the poll last year, we...

almost won.

So this year, I want all of you

to form an International
Technological Polytechnic ace team.

I want everyone to know that

we have talents in our polytechnic.

All right, everyone.

This is the moment
for you to present to me

your inventions, ideas
and business plans.

If it's a good idea, I'll adopt it
and you'll form an ace team

to take part in the National
Creative Invention Competition.

All right?
Come on, let's start. Come on.

Let's give it up for
our polytechnic. Yeah.

What we want to invent
is a remote-controlled dustbin.

You won't have to walk to the dustbin
to throw your trash.

With the remote control functions,
the dustbin will come to you.

This is a very practical idea.
We're lazy by nature.

Sometimes, we don't mean to litter,
but when we've got trash to throw

the bloody dustbin is so far away.

So with this
remote-controlled dustbin

we can work towards
building a green city.

Yes, it's amazing.

This is a humanistic design concept
centred around our practical needs.

If we could get the right investors,
this remote-controlled dustbin

would become the next big thing
with huge market potential.

I even think this will revolutionise
the design of dustbins.

In future, when we think of dustbins,
we'll think of you.

Your names will be
synonymous with dustbins.

You will become the dustbin. Yeah.

- Okay, next.
- You've become dustbins.

- Yeah. Come on.
- He's so irritating.

Yeah, come on. Next. Come on.

Weijie and I would like to invent
a small remote-controlled device.

It can take on any disguise and
fly towards the person you detest.

That person will touch the device
out of curiosity.

We'll then crank up the voltage.

And he'll get an electric shock.

There will be great demand
for this device

because there's always someone
whom we dislike

and whom we can't deal with.
Let me give an example.

Teachers.

The teachers might just
beat you at your own game.

Okay.

I think their invention
is attractive in a way

and may even have commercial value

but I won't support this idea. Why?

That's because they started on
a negative footing

and in terms of creativity,
it's a little passe.

- And perhaps it's a little bit...
- Lousy?

- Let's just call a spade a spade.
- No.

- We get your drift.
- That's not what I meant.

I didn't mean to say that it's lousy.

Mr Liew, since the first day
you taught us

I've felt that you're biased
against the whole class.

- I'm not.
- We're lousy. That's why we're here.

I know you've a beef with me, right?

Let's settle this once and for all.
Let's fight one-on-one right here.

- One-on-one?
- Well?

- One-on-one.
- Are you game enough?

- One-on-one.
- You're mistaken.

- One-on-one.
- Basketball court?

- One-on-one.
- Car park? Okay?

- One-on-one.
- You don't have the guts?

- One-on-one.
- You're mistaken.

One-on-one.

I know you like to invent things

but please keep
your spare parts properly.

Our home isn't your dumping ground.

What a naughty kid.

Your dad is still not back yet.
He's another naughty one.

Mum, your eldest son
and good boy is back.

- Hello, good morning.
- Dad.

Check out what I bought
for all of you.

Here's your favourite mobile phone
and here's your present.

And here's the watch
you've been asking for.

Look at the time.

What kind of good boy
comes back so late?

Late? Not at all.
It's only six in the morning.

Stop nagging. This is for you.

Here, two hundred dollars
for groceries.

I'm very happy. I won
six thousand dollars yesterday.

I'm not a greedy man. I just hope
to win five hundred dollars a day

and I can quit my job
as a taxi driver.

Why did you come back with these

when you were just there
to take a look?

Sheesh. You have no idea.

I did so well for a beginner
that it was unbelievable.

Whatever I betted on,
they became winning numbers

and I managed to avoid
the losing numbers.

If you were there, you would've
wanted to try your luck too.

We don't care for all these.

Your mum said
you don't want your presents.

- We do.
- We do.

Did you hear that?

Are you asking to get thrashed?

Why are you supporting him
when he just went gambling?

You've been nothing but a nag
throughout our years of marriage.

Whether I win or lose money,
you'll just chew me out.

I don't understand what you want.
You're absurd.

You won't always be so lucky.
I'm warning you.

You won't hear the last of it from me
if you gamble again.

It's not fair.

It's not true at all.

They can't do this.

What happened to her?

Look, it's news about Kim.

Somebody's attacking her on Facebook.

Look, this guy called David

said he's had sex with Kim
since she was fourteen.

Shit. Is this true?

It should be since so many people
are talking about it.

Poor thing. I know how she feels.

I should go talk to her.

Can you stop working
when we're having our meal?

My name is CK.

I'm the teacher
who took over your class.

Yes.

Actually, Mr Sng, I made this call
to find out more about a student.

His name is Damian Liu Jianren.

Jianren? He and Weijie
belong to the same gang.

They're very problematic.
Just leave them alone.

Well, I saw the report
you wrote about him.

You gave him an A grade for conduct.
Why is that so?

If I gave him a D grade, I would've
had to handle lots of paperwork

send him for counselling
and meet his parents.

My projects were piling up
and I had classes every day.

So I just gave him an A grade
for my own peace of mind.

Students like getting
the A grade anyway.

Mr Sng, I still think that
I should counsel them.

Let me tell you.
They're not going to listen to you.

Even their parents
don't bother about them.

Don't shoot yourself in the foot.

All right then. Thank you.

- Dear.
- Who's this?

- Dear.
- You guys must watch your back.

The gang at Redhill isn't happy that
we took over their turf.

I've already told them that
we divide the turf

based on the People Action Party's
electoral boundaries.

We're just following
the boundaries drawn by the PAP.

Damn. I don't understand
why they're so upset.

Hello?

Okay.

Lim and Teck saw
the Redhill gang leader in Geylang.

Damn. He'll get it from us.

But be careful.
There are three guys with him, okay?

Okay, let's go.

Boss, he's my teacher.

Your teacher?

He didn't dare to have a one-on-one
fight with me when I challenged him.

One-on-one?

Look at how effeminate he is.
I doubt he has the guts.

Hello? Let's go. Hurry.

Why did your students criticise you

for being a gutless coward
on Facebook?

They wanted to challenge me
to a one-on-one duel.

- Was it the guy who just left?
- And two other guys.

Why are they so nasty?

They aren't nasty;
they're just feeling inferior.

They want to win the duel
to prove they aren't weak.

They don't want to be despised.

Are you going to notify
the school or the police?

I know what to do.

Your classmate, Kim,
committed suicide last night.

Luckily, the tentage below her flat
saved her life.

We all know that some people
have been posting

nasty remarks about her
on the internet.

I believe you would've known that
she had been very unhappy.

The police are investigating
the case right now.

Good morning, everybody.

After much consideration

I've decided to take up
your challenge.

But I'm not going to
get into a fight with you.

Let's have a drone competition.

It's so unfair. You're the teacher.
You'll definitely win.

No. Look at me.
I've never fought with anyone.

If I agree to the one-on-one duel,
I'll definitely lose.

But if you have no guts
to accept my challenge

that means
you're also afraid you'll lose.

In fact, you're petrified.

But what if you lose?

If I lose, I'll treat everyone

to a sumptuous meal
out of my own pocket.

Mr Liew, let's raise the stakes.

If you lose,
you'll put on a bikini...

Bikini?

and run one lap around
the school compound.

No. What bikini?

I dare you to run one lap
around the school compound

in your birthday suit.

Run in your birthday suit.

Run in your birthday suit.

Boo, Mr Liew.

Go, Weijie, go.

Boo, Mr Liew.

- Go, Weijie, go.
- Boo, Mr Liew.

- Go, Weijie, go.
- Boo, Mr Liew.

Ready, in position.

And go.

Boo, Mr Liew.

Yeah!

Yeah!

We won!

Run in your birthday suit.

- Shit.
- Run in your birthday suit.

Run in your birthday suit.

Police. Is your mother in?

Mum, the police are looking for you.

What happened to my husband?

Police. Freeze. Is this your name?

You're under arrest.

What's happening?

Take away the computer.
Follow me back to the police station.

Girl.

You were spreading vicious rumours
about Kim online. Why?

Don't waste my time.

Why did you only catch me?
Why didn't you catch her?

- She hurt me too.
- Answer my question.

Is it because I didn't jump off
a building and create a hoo-ha?

I should've done that, right?

She jumped off the building
to kill herself.

It's not my fault.

Don't you feel guilty?

Why should I feel guilty?

I really don't understand
why she jumped off a building.

I mean, to attack someone
on the internet

you just have to type
and then you send

and then you just have to close
your computer and ignore it.

Nobody takes it seriously.

Why did she take it so hard?
This is just the internet.

It's mainly for fun.

Fun? You almost killed her.

Okay, but even if she dies,
people will just talk about her

for one day, two days
or even three days

and then people will just
forget about it.

And life goes on.

Once you know
the rules of the internet

it's really nothing.

Okay, what are the rules?

Accepting a challenge to be nasty.

Accepting a challenge to be cheap.

Accepting a challenge to be vicious.

Those without the guts
should just scram.

That's all.

Madam, do you know who your daughter
has been hanging out with lately?

She didn't hang out with anyone.
She stays in her room after school.

Her life revolves around
the school and her room.

Madam, that's the scary part.

During our generation,
kids went astray outside.

Now, they go astray
even in their own rooms.

No matter how naughty
your elder brother was

he was never brought
to the police station.

Look at what you've done.

Your classmate committed suicide
because of you.

Are you happy now?

I'm really disappointed with you.

Why couldn't I pay them back
in their own coin? It's not fair.

You should've just ignored them
and focused on your studies.

Talk is cheap.

Walk a mile in my shoes
and you'll know how upset I felt.

You don't understand me.
I hate you.

Mr CK Liew, don't you have the guts
to strip and run one lap around here?

I expected that
because you're a coward.

CK, you made an empty promise.

An untrustworthy man like you
isn't fit to be our teacher.

I'll tell you frankly.
All of us despise you.

- Boo!
- Boo!

- Loser.
- You're useless.

Are you really going to
run in your birthday suit?

Are you?

Can you just remove
your shoes and socks?

Dear, since I took up the challenge

I'll have to play by the rules.

Now that I've lost,
I have to keep my promise.

I hope you can support me.

It would've been acceptable
if he had worn swimming trunks.

I'm already very open-minded,
but this is out of line.

I can't imagine
they're teaching our children.

This is horrifying.

He did nothing wrong.
It was just for fun.

At least he kept his promise.

What's the big deal about
running around naked?

Don't you also strip naked
before you take a shower?

How could a teacher behave this way?

I can accept foreign teachers,
but they must be good teachers.

How could a teacher do this?
He should be punished.

- Mr Liew.
- Mr Liew.

Mr Liew.

We love you, Mr Liew.

We love you, Mr Liew.

Under immense pressure

the teacher who ran naked in school
has officially resigned this morning.

However, many students and executives
went online

to garner support for this teacher
who kept his promise.

They hope that the school won't...

With teachers like that

it's no wonder
the children are naughty.

Mum.

You're back. I've prepared lunch.

Take a shower after your meal
and then head for tuition.

After you're back from tuition class,
finish all these assessment papers.

I'm off for a job interview.

Mum, if I can finish
all these assessment papers

am I a good kid?

Yes. But your dad
is getting from bad to worse.

I don't know what to do with him.

Tuck in. Be a good boy.

Yes!

What's the matter? Am I a ghost?

Dad, you freaked me out.

Where's your mum?

She went for a job interview.

Dad, what are you looking for?

Is that lunch?

Dad, that's my lunch.

Can you even finish everything?

- Hello?
- Bao.

Is there an envelope on the table?

Yes, there is.

Put it away for me.
Tuck it under my pillow.

There's two hundred dollars inside
and I need the money for groceries.

Remember to put the envelope
in a safe place, okay?

Money for groceries?

Yes. Is your dad back?

Is Dad back?

He's not back.

Did he call?

Did he call?

No, he didn't.

Okay. Go and do your homework.

I'll be back later
to test your spelling.

- Goodbye.
- Goodbye.

Dad, that's for buying groceries.

I know.

I'm just checking to make sure
there's two hundred dollars.

Do you know whose money this is?

It's Mum's.

No, it's mine.

Have you forgotten that
I gave your mum some of my winnings

and spent the rest on gifts
for you and your siblings?

- Do you remember that?
- Yes.

You gave Mum the money.

Come here. Let me tell you.

I'll take this sum of money away
and come back with more money again

so that I can buy more mobile phones
and watches for all of you.

- Do you remember the gift you got?
- Yes.

Do you want a better life
for all of us?

Yes.

Good. You have to help me then.

Now, I'll take the money away.

- What do you call that?
- It's called... stealing.

It's not stealing.

I'm going to use this sum of money
to make more money

so that I can
take care of our family.

This isn't stealing.

You can accuse me of stealing

if I take the money away
without letting you know.

But you've seen what I did.
So what do you call this?

It's called... taking the money.

Taking? No.

When you take something,
you don't have to return it.

That's considered stealing too
and it's what naughty kids do.

If it's not taking or stealing,
what do you call it then?

It's called borrowing.
Borrowing is different.

When you borrow something,
you must return it.

That's the proper etiquette.

So now, do you understand
the difference

between stealing,
taking and borrowing?

You must master your Chinese.
Don't get bullied, okay?

So you'll help me, right?

Dad, are you borrowing
this sum of money now?

You're smart.

I'll borrow one hundred
and fifty dollars.

I'll put fifty dollars back.

Remember, don't let your mum
know about this.

Keep your lips sealed.

Before twelve midnight, I'll put
one hundred and fifty dollars back

and no one will ever know, okay?

- Dad.
- What is it again?

Am I a good boy if I do this?

Of course. You're helping your mum,
the whole family and me.

Of course you're a good boy, okay?

I'm leaving now. I'll be back soon.

Bao, wake up. Let's go to the market.

Boss, how much is the fish today?

Five dollars per kilogramme.

I'm getting these.

Madam, this is a counterfeit note.

How is it possible?

I've only printed three.

Why did you print only three?

My dad borrowed one hundred
and fifty dollars from Mum.

Borrow? He stole the money.

No, he borrowed it.
That was what Dad said.

Dad said he would come back
with more money.

But he didn't
and he has disappeared too.

I'm sorry, Mum.

Dad said I would be a good boy
if I could help him out.

Okay, a kid like him couldn't have
understood the implications

but as parents, you have to
bear some responsibility.

Please come down to the station
with your husband tomorrow.

Sorry.

Have some water.

My friend saw the news
about your case

on Starhub Cable TV yesterday.

Yesterday?

How do we watch it today then?

With Starhub Catch-Up TV,
you can watch it again.

Experience the rejuvenation of cells,
feel the vitality and youth again

just like a twenty-five-year-old.

Welcome back to Dawn's Moment.

The recent case about a teacher
who ran naked in school

has sparked off a flurry of responses
from all walks of life.

We have three guests with us today

who will share their thoughts
on the matter.

Regardless of the reason behind it

running naked in school
is morally wrong.

We shouldn't magnify
the negative aspects

and ignore the positive ones.

As a parent,
I was quite concerned at first.

But after I understood
the big picture

I thought to myself that punishment,
though necessary

could take the form
of a warning instead.

After all, he's a good teacher.

CK, you did nothing wrong.
We support you.

- It was just for fun.
- He's a man who keeps his promise.

- He's awesome.
- It was no big deal.

I feel there's something wrong
somewhere. Ministry of Education?

Can the school not sack him?

Sack the principal.

Thank you for keeping the promise.

Someone should give him
a Best Teacher Award.

The teacher ran naked to honour
a promise to his students.

In this society where people
make empty promises every day

such conduct was fair and just.

If we punish him
for keeping his word

aren't we confusing
what's right and what's wrong?

Aren't we sending the wrong message?

We appreciate the analysis from
the Member of Parliament, Madam Tan.

Now, let's look at the poll results.

Those who agree that
the teacher shouldn't be sacked...

Agree: 88.8%
Disagree: 11.2%

make up a whopping 88.8%

This is great. It's almost unanimous.

I'd also like to appeal
to the authorities

not to sack this good teacher
whom the students respect.

Please allow him
to continue teaching.

Okay, that's all for today.
See you next time.

Zell-V is just like my son.

I probably spend more time on it
than on my own sons.

We've been operating in Singapore
for more than ten years.

Ensuring health, vitality and beauty
is the only reason

for the evergreen appeal of
our health product in Singapore.

It also rejuvenates
damaged and ageing cells.

It's a form of cellular therapy.

It promotes cellular growth
and strengthens immunity.

You'll feel and look younger
like a twenty-five-year-old.

Well said, everyone.

But this sales pitch
won't appeal to customers.

Please continue to brainstorm on
the advantages of our product.

Today, I want all of you to
come up with new marketing tactics

to help customers understand

why our product can make them
look and feel youthful again.

Boss, that good-looking teacher
is here to see you.

- He's waiting at the reception area.
- Yes.

Goodness me, Mr Liew.

Goodness me, Mr Liew. I actually
didn't know you're my son's teacher.

Come on, let's take a photo.

Thank you for speaking up for me
in your programme.

You deserve that.

No one could've helped you
if this had happened in the past.

But times have changed.

The younger generation
has a more unconventional mindset.

It's good that you're back in school.

But isn't Mr Sng the form teacher?

He has retired.
I took over the class from him.

So I'm here to find out more
about Jianren and his family.

I understand.
We're just a simple family.

I'm a single mother with two sons,
a dog, a maid and three cars.

I'm also a TV presenter
and motivator.

I'm running my own business and...

Actually, Madam Phua, I want to ask
how you take care of the brothers.

Hey, my dear son, you're back.

- Hey, Mum.
- How's your tuition?

- Great.
- Okay, here.

Come, tell your brother's teacher
how I take care of you.

Hi, I'm...

Hi.

Well, whatever I want,
my mum will get it for me

because my academic results
are excellent.

I won numerous awards

and I'm a perfectionist
in every single way

unlike my inferior brother.
He's horrible.

- He's in the worst polytechnic...
- No.

Son, don't say that about
your brother. Don't say that.

Sorry, Mr Liew.
Pardon his ignorance.

Actually, I'm very proud of this son.

He tops his class every year.
I don't have to worry about him.

Jianren is slightly weaker
academically.

But each of them has
his own strengths and weaknesses.

I love both of them.
You know I'm a busy woman.

- Madam Phua.
- But I love both of them.

- Actually, do you know...
- Boss, there's a call for you.

Okay. Please excuse me.
Hello? Yes. Okay.

So you're my brother's teacher?

Yes, I am.

Okay, well, tell me.

How do you teach
such horrible students?

I mean, they're hopeless.

- Hopeless?
- Sorry, excuse me.

You can't say that your brother
is hopeless. My apologies.

I... Don't say that
about your brother.

- Boss.
- Actually, Madam Phua

- I want to talk to you...
- It's time for your meeting.

- Oh dear, I forgot about it again.
- You're going to be late.

Actually, can you tell me
more about Jianren?

Remember to drink
the chicken soup, okay?

- Does Brother have a share?
- I want to ask you more about...

Does Brother have a share?

No. It's only for you, darling.

- I love you.
- Are you sure?

- Yeah. I'm so proud of you.
- Madam Phua.

- I love you.
- Madam Phua, actual...

Actually, your brother isn't horrible
and he's not bad at all.

No way.

Hey, Nicole.
We've got something to show you.

No.

What?

Bitch, our friend committed suicide
because of you.

Are you happy now?

No.

- Sorry.
- You hypocrite.

- I'm sorry.
- You...

No, stop it. Stop.

Stop it.

Please don't do that. I'm sorry.

I'll let you have a taste
of your own medicine.

- I'm sorry.
- Cut it off. Cut everything.

Cut more.

Don't do it.

Don't do it. I'm sorry.

So you think it's fun
to bully other people?

I'm sorry.

Make it shorter.

It's so funny.

Oh my God, you look like a freak.

Let's go.

There are some wounds
on your daughter's scalp.

We have to shave her hair
to dress the wounds.

Here, sit down.

Shave her hair off?

Yes.

Let me do it.

Can you manage?

I've done it before.

Girl.

Let's start afresh.

Mum.

I love you.

I'm sorry.

I love you, Mum.

I love you.

I love you.

I love you.

Mum, I love you.

Mum, I love you.

Mum, I love you.

Mum, I love you.

I love you.

Mum, I love you.

I love you.

Sister, you're still very pretty.

We just arrested the girls
who bullied her.

She has to assist in
the identification process.

Nicole, do you understand now?

If you create hate,
you have to pay the price, okay?

Let's go.

You had the cheek to come back?

- Do you have any money?
- Do you know Nicole was beaten up?

Nicole was beaten up? So was I.

Do you know that they'll kill me
if I don't pay up by tomorrow?

Do you want the whole family to
get killed too, you heartless chap?

What you did was atrocious.
Get out of my sight.

Listen to me.

I remember you have some money
stashed under your pillow.

- I don't.
- Lend it to me first.

- Give it to me.
- I don't have any money. Leave.

Dad. No, Dad.

- What are you doing?
- You...

No, please.

What were you trying to do to me?
You have no respect for me.

What were you trying to do?
All of you can't wait to see me die.

Stop it.

Bitch, how dare you hit me.
How dare you.

I didn't do that on purpose.

I didn't do that on purpose.

- Mum.
- Mum.

- Call for the ambulance.
- Mum.

Mum. Please don't die.

Mum, I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have printed the money
for you to take to the market.

I shouldn't have lied to you
about having menstruation.

Mum, please wake up.

Mum, can you wake up,
please? I'm sorry.

We've already issued a warrant
for your father's arrest.

As soon as we have any news,
we'll keep you informed.

There's no need for that.
To me, he's dead.

I don't have such a father.
Can I leave now?

According to the doctor,
Mum is already in a coma.

So what's the point of crying?

Brother, will Mum die?

- I don't want Mum to die.
- Brother, what should we do?

Brother, will Mum wake up?

How would I know?
I hope she wakes up soon.

But I usually have milk and sausages
in the morning.

There was nothing left at home
except for these three eggs.

Do you want it?

But the egg is badly burnt.
How am I supposed to eat this?

So you don't want it, right?

I'll eat it then.

What about you?
Do you want the burnt egg?

Yes, I do.

You don't want this either, right?

Fine, I'll drink it.

Brother, what if the loan sharks
come looking for us later?

What do you mean?

There's nothing left at home.
What can they do to us?

Brother, what time will you be
coming home?

I'm not coming back again.

We can share it.

Your father beat up your mother?

Damn, that was inhumane.

I feel like beating him up too.

When my mum was around

things seemed to
get done automatically.

Now that she's gone,
I feel really lost.

Sorry. Your drone was very creative.

Well done.

I'm officially inviting both of you
to join the ace team

and represent the school
in the competition. Okay?

Competition?

That's for you and the principal
to achieve your KPI targets.

It's none of our business.

Okay, but that's not the point.

The point is that I think
both of you are really talented.

Look, you could design and create
the device on your own

and even beat me.

- That was no mean feat. Why don't...
- Let's go.

Okay. Just give me one minute.
One minute, okay?

This is a very important competition
for both of you.

It's a perfect platform
to showcase your talents.

If there's anything I can do to help,
don't keep mum.

Don't keep mum?

Don't keep mum?

His mum's in the hospital now.
Yet you told him not to keep mum?

Really? What happened?

What happened?

Brother.

Brother.

It's delicious.

It's delicious.

Let's visit Mum after the meal, okay?

Brother, I have a feeling
Mum's awake and waiting for us.

- Mum. Please wake up, Mum.
- Mum. Please wake up, Mum.

- Mum.
- Mum.

Who are you?

We're called loan sharks.
Your father owes us money.

We're here to collect our money.

Don't assume
we wouldn't come after you

just because you're hiding
in the hospital.

Even if you hide in the Istana,
we'll hunt you down.

- It's my dad who owes you money.
- Not my mum.

And definitely not us.
There's nothing left at home.

There's nothing left
except the three of us.

So what do you want?

Your father owes us
thirty thousand dollars.

It's normal for children
to repay their parents' debts.

That's the good thing
about having children.

You can repay your father's debt
by helping us splash paint.

You just have to splash and run.
No talking is needed.

It's a no-brainer job and
you'll even get a good exercise.

I promised my mum to be a good boy.
I won't be one if I splash paint.

Little boy, by splashing paint for us

you're helping your father
and your family.

Are you crazy? He's only eight.

What's there to fear?

Look, even the PAP and the opposition
are having younger faces.

An eight-year-old boy like him
will grow up to take on the world.

Yes, you're right.

Such a young loan shark
won't be caned if he gets caught.

The police will be so frustrated.

Get going. Splash paint
on those three units for me.

Here, take this.

Get going.

Stop looking. Move it.

Have you become a runner
for loan sharks?

How did you know?

I heard about it from my gang.
Stop doing this.

Why did you cut yourself a deal
which I can't wait to get out of?

I didn't have a choice.

Do you have any relatives?
Seek their help.

Yes, but most of them
are in Malaysia.

The ones in Singapore
are worse off than us.

- What about your neighbours?
- Neighbours?

Ask every neighbour to help out
by lending you a little money.

They'll be doing themselves
a favour too.

You know, the lack of neighbourliness
is exactly why

loan sharks have been targeting
their debtors' neighbours

resulting in lose-lose outcomes.

Do you know the neighbours
in HDB flats are very different now?

Really?

(Korean)

English?

(Korean)

(French)

English?

(French)

(Bangladesh)

English?

(Bangladesh)

No.

What about your old neighbours?

They've either relocated or migrated.

We're the only ones left.

How about this?
This is the last resort.

I'll ask my boss to
repay the debt for you

and you'll help him splash paint
in return.

You want me to join your gang
as a runner?

At least we'll belong
to the same gang.

I'm more experienced.
I can watch over you.

Okay, he has a workshop
at Toa Payoh Lorong 5.

Let's go meet him.

How could you ask Weijie
to join your gang?

Jianren, it was wrong of you
to join a street gang to begin with

and now, you're even
dragging Weijie into it.

That's way out of line.

Are you really serious
about helping us?

Yes, I'm sincere about helping you.

No matter what the problem is,
I'll help you resolve it.

Okay. Both of us owe loan sharks
sixty thousand dollars.

Help us repay the debts.

Okay.

Aside from repaying the debts,
how else can I help you?

My mum is hospitalised.
Can you wake her up from her coma?

The police can't find my dad.
Can you help the police nab him?

And can you help me take care of
my siblings who are on their own?

I can link you up with
the social services department.

Are you trying to get us arrested?

Why can't you turn a blind eye
like the other teachers do?

You'll have an easier time.

We won't blame you for that.

And your KPI won't be affected.

Are you done?

Listen. If you really join the gang,
you'll be doomed.

I can't let this happen
to the two of you.

Stop following us.

Dear, how much are our savings?

Why are you asking?
That's for the baby.

I was just thinking that
a hundred thousand dollars

could ensure a comfortable childbirth
when the baby is due.

We don't have so much money.
We have about...

sixty-three thousand dollars.

Sixty-three thousand dollars?

That's enough.

I'll just have to
save them one at a time.

- Who are you saving?
- The bus is here.

Listen. Hey, you.

Please go back first, Dear.

I need to settle something first.
I'll be back in a while.

I won't take long, okay?

Where are you going?

You ended up in this state
all because of your father.

You have every reason to
hold a grudge against him, okay?

I've settled his debt
with the other loan sharks.

You owe me money now,
so you have to work for me, okay?

Okay.

This money is for you.

Thank you, Boss.

You've been slacking off lately.
You haven't met your KPI targets.

Okay, here, go splash paint
on a few more units.

Don't worry. It's easy.
I'll teach you.

There are so many colours?

Green is for the first warning.
Yellow is for the second warning.

Red is for the third warning.
And black is for the final warning.

What if the debtors
still don't pay up?

It'll be escalated to
the advanced level then.

What's the advanced level?

Arson.

Don't worry. We're only
in charge of splashing paint.

Don't worry. I've got your back.

Let's go.

I've finally found you.

My goodness, Mr Liew.

What do you want?

Are you a part-time
private investigator?

Look, this is a cheque
for sixty thousand dollars.

Pass it to your boss.

I'll be frank with you.

Sixty-three thousand dollars
is all I have in my bank account.

I'm withdrawing
sixty thousand dollars to help you

not because of my KPI.

I just can't turn a blind eye

and let you guys go down
the path of no return.

Take it.

We had already reached
the point of no return

on the day we entered
this polytechnic.

Everyone condemns us.

Do you think it's my fault that
I ended up like this?

Do you think I wanted this?

You can choose to put an end to it.

Do you know that when you really
make a huge mistake one day

no one will bother to find out why?

A mistake is a mistake
and you'll be punished.

You can blame society.

But will the society help you
serve your jail term?

You can blame it on your environment.

But again, will that help you
avoid your jail term?

Fine. Even if it's
your parents' fault

for not giving you
the proper upbringing

can they take your place in jail

when you're punished
for your mistake?

But you have a choice now.

Take full responsibility
for your future.

We're hopeless.

We're just losers.
We aren't worth your time.

You have a bright future
ahead of you.

You're married and
you'll be having a baby soon.

So stop wasting your time on us.
Please leave.

I'm not leaving.

I'm going to make you understand
that it's not too late to turn back.

We don't have a future.

Look at my family now.
It's in a mess.

Can you even call it a family?

But I've resigned myself to my fate
because this is my lot in life.

We're bad and naughty boys.

We're rotten kids.

Even if we aren't caught today,
we'll be jailed eventually.

There's no turning back for us.

So stop wasting your time.
Just leave.

I'm not leaving.

You won't leave? Then we will.

Look at it from another perspective.

If I'd gone directly to the police

the whole issue
would've been resolved.

But both of you would've been
imprisoned and caned.

I've been trying my best
to help as much as I can.

But if you choose to give up
on yourselves today

no one will be able to help you then.

Jianren, are you giving up
on yourself?

Weijie, are you going to
give up so easily?

Let's go.

Stop right there.

What?

Are you helping the loan sharks?

So?

I didn't believe my friends
when they told me.

But you've been
coming home late recently.

So I hired a private investigator.

Look at this.

Yes, I'm a runner for
the loan sharks.

I help them splash paint
and harass debtors. So what?

Why are you doing this?
It's not right.

I know. I'm a disgrace to you, right?

The son of a famous TV presenter
and businesswoman

is actually a runner
for the loan sharks.

Once the media reports about this

your reputation
will be ruined, right?

It's not my reputation
that's at stake.

What if the police arrest you?

Don't worry. If I'm nabbed,
I won't tell them about you.

That's because
you're not a mother to me.

You're just concerned about
your career and your younger son.

Isn't that right?

What's going on? Why am I involved?

Can you stop talking
with a fake accent?

Do you think that makes you
better than me?

Dude, what are you talking about?

I speak perfect English
and you're deliberately

trying to prevent me
from what I'm doing.

- What's up with that?
- Amos.

Keep quiet and go back to your room.

Dude, what the freak is this, man?
This is so unfair.

You keep quiet, okay? Stop whining.

- Stop going on about fairness.
- Dude.

We live in a democratic society
and we have freedom of speech.

Amos, just keep quiet.

Dude, why do you
keep asking me to keep quiet?

Why don't you ask Damian
to keep quiet?

You obviously love him
more than you love me.

This is so unfair.

Brother.

Why are you standing here?

Brother, I thought you were going
to leave us like Dad did.

Don't be silly. I went to buy food.

Here you go.
Get your sis to come out.

There's food.

Sis, come and eat something.

What's that?

- Brother.
- Tuck in.

- Fried chicken. My favourite.
- Fried chicken. My favourite.

Brother.

Where did you get the money?

Are you still helping
the loan sharks?

Sheesh. Don't sweat the small stuff.

Nicole.

Why don't you go back
to school tomorrow?

That white scarf looks ugly on you.

Look.

I got you a hat. See?

Let me help you put it on.

What's wrong?

Do I still look pretty?

Yes, you look very pretty.

You're not only pretty.

I hope that when Mum wakes up,
I can proudly tell her that

you're still the top student. Okay?

Brother, yesterday,
I dreamt that Mum woke up.

She'll definitely wake up
because I've been a good boy.

Yes, you're the best.
We're the naughty ones.

No, you're the best elder brother
in the world.

You eat like a glutton.

You want to quit the gang?
Are you sure?

The police just informed me that
my dad has been arrested.

My siblings need me now
since my mum is still in a coma.

If I get caught,
what's going to happen to them?

As for the debt,
I'll settle it with Boss.

I'll look for a job
and pay him back by instalments.

As long as I return the money,
Boss will allow me to quit, right?

That's easier said than done.
It's not just about paying off debts.

We aren't the Boy Scouts

who can just pack up and leave
when we find it boring.

Leaving a gang isn't so simple.
If it was, I would've left long ago.

But I'm really done with
splashing paint.

You're aware of the danger
and implications too.

I don't want to do this either.

It gets more frightening by the day.

The police are all out to
catch the loan sharks.

I don't want to end up in prison.
But I dare not tell Boss.

Why don't we talk to him together?

We can back each other up.
It makes things easier, right?

It's hard enough for a gang member
to call it quits, let alone two.

Look, Boss just wants us to
splash paint and harass the debtors.

Why don't we invent a device
which does that

and ask him to let us leave?

It's worth a shot.

He spends so much time in school.

From his behaviour and body language

you should've known that
he has joined a gang.

Madam Phua,
the school rules are very clear.

As long as something happens
within the school compound

we'll take all the necessary action.

But now, this happened
outside the school.

There's nothing we can do.

Actually, Madam Phua,
when I paid you a visit previously

I wanted to remind you to
show more concern for your son.

But you didn't have time for me.

I believe you didn't have time
for him either.

That's not the point.

And I couldn't have spent much time
with him since he was seldom at home.

If you really want to save your son,
I suggest you go to the police.

- Go to the police?
- Yes.

Do you know what
you're talking about?

- Go to the police?
- What's wrong?

She's actually Madam Cynthia Phua,
a motivator

and the TV presenter for
the programme, Dawn's Moment.

Really? I'm sorry.
I don't watch such programmes.

It's okay. Mr Discipline Master,
if I go to the police

the whole world will know that
my son is a loan shark.

My career will be totally ruined.
This is impossible.

Actually, I've tried to
talk to him many times

but he refused to listen to me.

See? It's your fault in this case.

There's a communication breakdown
between you and the kids.

Did you identify their needs?
Did you satisfy their needs?

If you want to satisfy their needs,
you need to have a common language.

- You need to know their lingo and...
- Excuse me.

Do you really want to save your son?

Yes, of course.

I suggest you talk to
his gang leader.

Gang leader?

These are their hangouts.

I just got the list.

Don't tell them.
I wasn't supposed to do that.

Once you lose hope,
you'll lose sight of your future.

You just need to keep your head up
and you'll know you have a choice.

Do you understand?

It's just like playing pool.

After you hit the ball,
it has no say over where it's going.

But you aren't a ball.
You're a human being.

Therefore, you have a choice.

Hey, auntie. You're such a nag.
Aren't you sick of droning on and on?

Excuse me, Mr Qiang.
May I correct you?

Don't call me auntie because nothing
could be further from the truth.

You can call me Madam Phua
or Mentor Phua as other people do.

I'm fine with either form of address.

Are you here to strip
on your son's behalf?

Strip? Why must I strip?

To strip means to quit the gang.

I see. That's your lingo.

Yes. I'm here to help him
quit the gang.

How should I go about it?

What are you doing here?

- Son, you came at the right time.
- Why did you come here?

I've spoken to your leader
and he has agreed to let you strip.

- You must thank him.
- Hey, auntie.

Don't jump the gun.
When did I say I'd let him strip?

Take your mother away.
Guys, see this old auntie out.

Now, you're calling me old auntie.
That's atrocious.

- Move it. Just go home.
- Don't be back too late.

- Go home.
- Don't touch me.

Don't come home too late.
I'll brew soup for you, okay?

All right, goodbye.

Boss, there's something
which we'd like to discuss with you.

What is it?

We want to strip.

Strip? Why?

Boss, as you know, it's too risky
to collect debts in Singapore now.

The police are hot on our heels.
We don't want to go to jail.

Do you think you can leave
at your whim and fancy?

Am I so soft-headed to you?

You're mistaken, Boss.
We wish to invent a device for you.

It will be able to
collect debts, splash paint

and do the job on
all our gang brothers' behalf.

Even if there's a raid, the police
will just confiscate the device.

Our brothers will be fine.

You're just from International
Technological Polytechnic.

If you were so smart, you would've
gone to Raffles Institution.

Boss, please don't look down on
students from ITP, all right?

Yes, we have our talents too.

Fine, go ahead and invent the device.

Don't just pay lip service
which I can do better than you guys.

If you can prove your worth,
I'll let you leave.

- Thank you, Boss.
- Thank you, Boss.

Don't thank me yet.

Before the device is ready,
go splash paint on these two units.

That's all for now.

Pass it to me.

What are you doing?

I'm just a lone ranger while you have
your siblings to take care of.

It's settled. Just go back first.

See you tonight. I'll be all right.

Damian.

What are you doing here?

I followed you all the way here.

Son, I beg of you.
Don't do this anymore.

It's illegal. If you're caught,
you'll be finished.

That's my choice.
Just leave me alone.

Don't talk to me like that.

I know I'm putting you on the spot
by asking you to stop doing this

and your leader probably
won't let you off the hook too.

So I've thought of
a win-win solution.

I've got someone
to do the job for you.

Who?

Hi, Sir.

- Maria?
- Yes.

- Our maid, Maria?
- That's right.

Son, she's got nothing to do anyway.
Wait for me. I have Proposal B.

This is awesome.
And there are even images.

Boss, the best is yet to come.

Boss, is this the guy
we're looking for?

Yes, it's him.
He never repays his debt.

You idiot.

Instead of repaying your debt,
you're enjoying coffee here?

Please spare me.

Let me show you my true colours.

Pay me back the money now
or I'll be nastier to you.

Repay your debt

This is impressive.

Can you spray the paint on the door?

That's the style of loan sharks.
It's like our signature dish.

Boss, this is even better.

Spraying paint on the door
is outdated.

This device can enter his house
and spray the paint on his walls.

It can even do that?

- No problem.
- Boss, look.

We can spray the paint now.

Repay your debt

She has been alerted.
Retreat. Stop.

It's over there. I spotted it.

Great.

Pass it to me.

I can't believe this was invented by
ITP students like you.

This device is powerful,
but can you improve on the functions?

What other functions do you want?

For example, make it emit flames.

- Emit flames?
- Emit flames?

Yes, some idiots refused to pay up
and they even went to the police.

I want to burn them alive.

Boss, you want to kill them?

I just want to threaten them,
not kill them.

Can you do it?

We'll try.

Good. That's settled.

Oh yes, there's going to be
a drone competition in Malaysia.

It's for the rich
who have nothing better to do.

The team with the drone that can
withstand the heaviest weight

and fly the furthest
will win a hundred thousand dollars.

It's a hundred thousand dollars.

If you win, I'll take
seventy thousand dollars

and you can keep the rest

and leave the gang.
Are you happy with that?

Boss, that requires more advanced
technical skills.

I'm afraid we may not be up to it.

Don't dismiss the idea just yet.
Have more faith in yourselves.

Give it a shot.
Okay, so that's a deal.

Yes?

Mr Liew, we need your help.

Sure.

Our boss wants us to invent
a powerful drone

to take part in
a competition in Malaysia

and win the prize money for him.

Then he'll let us quit the gang.

Good. Let's do it.

But on one condition.

With this drone, we will
represent the school to take part in

the National Creative
Invention Competition.

- Are we on?
- We're on.

We're on.

This is...

- Yeah!
- Yeah!

Good job.

We're installing a video recorder
for flight recording.

And this GPS transmitter.

GPS transmitter?

Yes. If there's a mishap
during the flight

at least we can still find it.
Touch wood, of course.

- Let me study this at home.
- Okay.

Do you know that every time
I complete a project

I can't help but feel like
I'm its father?

I'll want to do my best to protect it
and hope that it can be a good kid.

If anything happens to it,
I'll be very sad.

My wife will be giving birth soon,
so this feeling has intensified.

I'm starting to feel like
I'm its father too.

Really?

I share the same feeling too.

This is such a lucky kid
with three fathers.

I need to leave.

- Okay.
- Hello?

Goodbye.

Okay.

All right, it's show time.

- Get the stuff.
- Okay.

Actually, we're quite smart.

You're right. Why do people
look down on us?

Think about this. When Boss gets to
keep this after the competition

he'll be the only loan shark
in the world with his own air fleet.

You're right.

Repay your debt

Actually, that's a scary thought.

If he goes crazy and
uses this flame-spewing device

to seek revenge and commit murder,
how will we live with ourselves?

Heck, why don't we just remove
the flame-spewing function?

Yes. We'll just tell him we're dumb
and failed to meet his expectations.

I don't care if he looks down on us.

- Let's remove that function.
- Okay.

Did you say this was an invention
by students from Raffles Institution?

No, they're from ITP.

- ITP?
- Yes.

- No way.
- You find it unbelievable, right?

So did I initially.

That was great.

Boss could hardly believe his eyes.

Geez. I can't believe this device
could withstand such a heavy load

and cover such a long distance.

If you had been talent-spotted
by Osama bin Laden

the world would've been in danger.

Run a final check.

We're heading to Kuala Lumpur
for the competition tomorrow.

Tomorrow? But we aren't done yet.

We need to paint it, beautify it
and install light bulbs.

- Light bulbs?
- Yes.

We have to dress it up.

We don't need light bulbs.
It's not Christmas.

This competition is about mileage
and load-carrying capacity.

It's not a fashion competition, okay?

Okay, run a check
to ensure it won't crash.

Don't embarrass Singaporeans.

If Malaysia can do it,
so can Singapore, okay?

We can all do it. Okay.

Damian, I have good news for you.

Look, I submitted your application to
this college in the United States.

They did me a huge favour
and approved it.

We can leave immediately.

Just leave me alone.

I've made all these arrangements
for the sake of your future.

How many times must I tell you
to mind your own business?

Go love your younger son.

It's done. The flight records
for Loan Shark Two

have been downloaded to your laptop.
They're all in this folder.

- Good, I'll take a look later.
- Okay.

With this information, I can make
Loan Shark Two even better.

Why are you so late?

Don't get me started.

Look at our baby.

- Yes, it's ready.
- All right.

- Take it away.
- Okay, we're ready to go.

- Let's go.
- Hey, I forgot to ask you.

- Where will the competition be held?
- Kuala Lumpur.

What a coincidence.
I'll be going there with my wife.

- We're visiting my father-in-law.
- Really?

I'll show up to support you
if I can find the time.

But we're not sure where exactly
the competition will be held.

Have you forgotten about
the GPS function on Loan Shark Two?

You're right.
Okay, we should get going.

- Go.
- Okay.

Mr Liew, thank you.

We've given you an A grade
for the teacher's appraisal.

Get out of here.

- Goodbye.
- Goodbye.

Did you say this was an invention
by students from Raffles Institution?

No, they're from ITP.

- ITP?
- Yes.

- No way.
- You find it unbelievable, right?

So did I initially.

- They're smart, right?
- Absolutely.

Actually, we can go for
mass production and sell this device.

Settle the shipment from Johor Bahru
to Singapore first.

Focus on that tomorrow.

- Are these two kids reliable?
- Yes.

If they aren't, I'll get rid of them.
You know how I work.

I'll kill them even if you don't.

The subscriber you're calling
is currently unavailable.

The subscriber you're calling
is currently unavailable.

Hello? Yes, dear.

Yes. Okay. I'll come over now.

If Dad wasn't so sick, I would've
just stayed at home to rest.

Although this is an away game,
but don't worry. We'll surely win.

Selena, help me to cancel
all my appointments.

If Mr Tee asks where his car is

tell him I drove his car
to Johor Bahru.

Nobody would want his car anyway,
so I'd be very safe.

Okay? Remember that. Goodbye.

Dear, I need you to
check our location.

Move that icon.

Is this the one? It's done.

Can you see the green icon?

Yes.

Okay. The blue icon
represents our car.

Please direct me towards
the green icon.

What does the green icon represent?

The shortcut to your father's house.

Okay. We'll pass through
two streets first.

- Go straight and then turn.
- Okay.

Boss, isn't the competition
in Kuala Lumpur?

Why are we still in Johor Bahru?

I forgot to mention that
they changed the venue.

It's in Johor Bahru now.

We're getting closer
to the green icon.

It's just a few more metres away.

But why are we in a forested place?
Where are you taking me to?

Your father's house.

My father's house?

The road ahead is the shortcut.

Shortcut? We don't even know
where we are now.

I'm so tired. I'll take a nap.

Sleep tight.

I have to think positive.
I can do it.

Okay, you can alight now.

Boss, we're here.

You're smart and talented.

You're the hope for the country.

But what a shame that you aren't
studying in Raffles Institution.

It's not a shame for you

but definitely a shame
for Raffles Institution.

Am I right? I was just joking.

Qiang, get it done quickly.

- Don't drag your feet.
- Okay.

I have a spa appointment
with the Dato.

Boss, what's going on?

It's the competition.

The competition is about to start.
Get Loan Shark Two ready for flight.

Boss, it feels weird here.

I won't get you into trouble.

You just have to launch
Loan Shark Two towards Singapore

and we can claim our prize money.
It's as simple as that, right?

Tie this to the drone.

What's this?

It's the prize money.

Could it possibly be...

drugs?

I'm not such an evil person, okay?

And he's not an evil person too
even though he looks like one.

Don't be misled by the movies.

In reality, you can't
judge a book by its cover.

If someone looks like a bad guy,
that means he isn't one.

- What's inside then?
- Let's open it to take a look.

Don't do that. Don't you trust me?
This parcel is from the organisers.

We have no right to question them.
This is the rule.

I know I look like a bad guy
just like what you see in the movies.

And in fact, I'm a bad guy too.
Movies are never misleading.

Here, this pack of drugs costs
one million Singapore dollars.

Boss, can you please
try to be more subtle?

What's your problem?
Why must we lie to them?

Didn't your teacher
tell you that lying is bad?

Here. Hold this.

Just secure it to your drone,
send it over to Singapore

and you'll get the prize money of
a hundred thousand dollars, okay?

Is this from Thailand?

No, we bought it on the internet.

Internet?

Do it fast. It's going to rain.

Do it now.

This is great.

Great.

Hello? The eagle
catches the little chick.

It's flying to the Singapore Zoo now.

Is Ah Meng in the cage already?

Ah Meng is already waiting
in the cage.

Sheesh. What are you talking about?

Boss, these are secret codes.

Both of you, watch out.

Don't let it fly too high or else
it'll be detected by the radar.

Don't let it fly too low either
as it'll be spotted by the police.

Ah Meng is already waiting
in the cage.

Is breakfast coming?

It'll be served soon.

How is it going?

Relax. Singaporeans
are very efficient.

Fine, I'll reward you later,
braggart.

Control it.

This is strange.
It's going in the wrong direction.

Be a good boy. I'm your father.

We've lost control.
We can't seem to control the drone.

Where's the video feed?
What happened?

Is everything all right?

Don't try to pull any tricks.

- Let me do it.
- I'll control it.

Can we go now?

You're awake?
I thought you were napping.

Go catch forty more winks.

This is strange. You hold it.

Control it. You take over.

Good grief, Dear.
Give it back to me.

Sheesh. Just share your toy with me.

Keep it steady. Control it.

Okay, that's enough.

Let me fly it higher.

Good grief. No.

It's not working.

My goodness.

It's back.

- Yes.
- But it's not controlled by us.

- What?
- Boss, this is too dangerous.

- Let's get out of here.
- Don't you run away.

You have to get it back for me.

Okay. Keep it steady. Control it.

We're losing control.

Run!

Good grief. Look, it has crashed.

This isn't fun.

I'm going to look for the plane.

- Come back soon.
- Okay.

Holy shit.

Madam Phua?

Madam Phua.

These drugs are worth more
than your lives.

You must get them back
by hook or by crook.

Boss, I saw the drone fly over there.
I'm sure we can find the drugs there.

I'll be back.

If we can't find the drugs,
it's going to be crazy for us.

Let's go.

The teacher? Crap, you betrayed me.
Beat them to a pulp.

Move it, guys.

- Look for him over there.
- Yes.

It's over there.

Leave my drone alone.

This is mine, okay?
I'll be back for you later.

It's flying. Go after it.

What a nuisance.

It's the police.

No.

- Oh no.
- We're in deep trouble.

Let's inform Boss. Hurry.

Sorry, son. I have to
hand you over to the police first.

I won't let you become an evil tool.

Now, I'll rescue
your other two fathers.

I'll be back to save you later.

Hello.

Why is it so noisy over there?

I'm pooping.

Can you come back soon?
My tummy feels very uncomfortable.

Oh yes, remember to
lock the car doors.

If those two students of mine come by
to hitch a ride, let them hop in.

I'll be back after
answering nature's call. Okay?

Hello?

Hello?

- Boss, we didn't betray you.
- Yes, Boss.

Our teacher was the meddlesome one.
We didn't even know he was here.

Do you think I'll buy your story?

If you had nailed this mission

we would've earned
a hundred thousand dollars.

But you just had to play tricks
and mess everything up.

- Boss.
- You idiot.

Cut the crap about
Singaporeans being efficient.

You couldn't even handle
such a simple task.

I lost one million dollars
as a result.

One million dollars.

No, Boss.

- Please don't kill me.
- Boss, kill me instead.

He still has siblings to look after
while I'm all alone.

No one cares about me anyway.
So kill me.

- Okay.
- No, Damian.

You want to be the hero?

- Fine, I'll grant your wish.
- Just kill me.

- No.
- Boss, you can't shoot him.

The police will be able
to hear the gunshot.

Use the knife instead.
Pass me the gun. Use the knife.

No.

- No.
- Okay, let me tell you.

Before I became a gangster, I used to
chop coconuts in the kampong.

I always did a good job.

- Who's that?
- Damian.

- Mum?
- Go away.

Damian. You, go away.

How could you say that
no one cares about you?

- Who's this auntie?
- I care about you.

- Leave now.
- What's this auntie doing here?

- Your mother...
- Who are you scolding?

I was just referring to his mother.

Boss, I suggest that you chop
the old coconut first

before moving on to the young ones.

This old coconut can be
such a pain in the neck.

- I've experienced it firsthand.
- Son.

Okay, since you've held me captive,
release these two kids.

You can do whatever you want to me.
I'm okay with it.

That's because I'm a positive person
and a motivator.

Although the odds are against me

I believe that as long as
I keep the faith and never give up

I'll overcome all obstacles.

I'll never relent,
admit defeat or give up.

I'll become stronger as I soldier on.

I believe where there's risk,
there's hope.

You just want to
tear your hair out, right?

No. I want to tear yours too.

Pass me the knife.

No.

Don't hurt them.
Your parcel is with me.

Come and get it if you dare.

- Come after me if you dare. Come on.
- After him.

Those fools are gone. Release me now.

- How?
- Go behind me.

Pick up that piece of paper
on the ground. Help me up.

CK wrote in Chinese.
I don't understand.

You read it.

I failed my Chinese.

Heck, why did you refuse to
heed my advice to learn Chinese?

Fortunately, I'm bilingual.

- What did he write?
- Let me see.

Gosh, your teacher's handwriting
is terrible.

But it's okay. I can still
make out the words.

- Heck, let's read it along the way.
- Okay. Come on.

Crap, he runs faster than a dog.

Why are all of you here?
Who's keeping an eye on the trio?

Let's go.

Hurry.

- Hello?
- Dear, where exactly are you?

I'm feeling really queasy
in the tummy.

Dear, I'm still pooping.

You're still pooping?

Didn't you say the baby and I
would be your top priority?

- He's over there!
- Boss, don't shoot.

- There are police officers around.
- Go after him!

Hello?

Stop running.

His pooping actually
matters more than me.

Hurry.

Your teacher wrote that
his car is on the opposite hill.

His wife is in the car
and her baby is due very soon.

We have to drive her
to the hospital immediately

and get the police to rescue him.

- They're catching up. Hurry.
- My leg.

My leg hurts.
I think it's dislocated.

- Come up now.
- Pass me the gun.

- Auntie, they're coming. Hurry.
- Mum, hang in there.

Hurry.

Hurry.

- It's hurting a lot.
- They're catching up.

- Let her lie down here.
- Put me down.

Mum, your leg is dislocated.

It's just dislocated, not broken.
It can be fixed.

Think positive, okay?
Think positive.

Auntie, hang in there.
We're reaching the top of the hill.

The car is just up there.
I'll take you there, okay?

No. Listen to me.
Don't bother carrying me.

Drive Mrs Liew to the hospital
immediately, okay?

Don't let me slow you down.

If we let those armed gangsters
catch up with us, we'll all die.

Auntie, what about you then?

I will hide here.

They won't be able to see me
since the undergrowth is so thick.

They won't discover me.
I've got my way.

Where there's risk, there's hope.

I can't leave you behind.

Think positive.
You're seeking help, okay?

Oh no, they're coming.
Run along. Seek help.

- Run along now. Be good kids.
- Be careful.

- I'll be fine.
- We'll get the police.

- Let's go.
- Don't worry.

- There are police officers around.
- Don't give me that crap.

Stop right there!

Crap, how do we climb up?

- Let's try the other side.
- Okay.

Crap, stop running.

Idiotic crooks, I'm here.
Come look for me, idiots.

- Stay right there.
- I'm over here, idiots.

Come over here now, idiots.

Yes!

- This...
- I can't do this.

It'll weigh on my conscience.
I must go back and save my mum.

Wait.

Oh dear, look,
she has peed due to shock.

Sorry, I'm a lousy driver. Wait here.
I'll go back and save my mum, okay?

- My amniotic sac just broke.
- Amniotic sac?

- The baby's coming out.
- Baby?

What should we do?

- Take me to that hut.
- That one?

You have to assist me
as I give birth.

- We don't know how to.
- We don't know how to.

I'll guide you along. Hurry, help me.

- Let's go.
- Okay.

- What should we do?
- What do we do now?

There's a luggage in the car.

- Luggage? Let's go get it.
- Go get it.

- Is this the one?
- Is this the one?

There are scissors
and a towel inside.

Open the luggage.

- Open it.
- Okay.

Great. I found the towel.
Here's the towel.

The scissors.

We can't find the scissors.
Can you make do with a nail clipper?

It's too small. It can't be used.

Okay. There's a bigger nail clipper.
Is that fine?

Who uses a nail clipper
for childbirth?

Where are the scissors?

We found them.

Remove my shoes.
Place the towel under my hips.

Okay. The towel. Here you go.

- Okay.
- The towel is in place. What's next?

Remove my pants.

- Your pants?
- Your pants?

Hurry, there's no time to think.

Okay. We'll take one side each.

Okay. The pants are off. What's next?

Remove my panties.

She wants us to remove her panties?

- We...
- We can't do this to Mr Liew.

If the baby dies, you won't be able
to answer to Mr Liew.

What should we do?
All right, we'll do it. Here we go.

Okay. The panties are off.
What's next?

Grab me.

- Grab your hands?
- Okay.

Push.

- Push.
- Push.

Is it okay?

Look between my legs.

- We have to look?
- We'd better not.

- Hurry. Look between my legs.
- Okay.

What do you see?

- Hair.
- Hair.

And what else?

The baby's hair.

- I see the baby's head.
- The baby's head is coming out.

- The baby's head is coming out.
- I see the baby's head.

Come on.

Push harder, come on. One, two.

One, two, three.

You must push harder.

No, I can't do it anymore.

The opening is too small.
The baby can't come out.

- What should we do?
- What should we do?

- The scissors.
- The scissors?

- Here are the scissors.
- Slit the opening.

Slit the opening?

Without anaesthetics,
it'll hurt terribly.

I can't do it.

I don't care about the pain now.
I'm not afraid. Hurry.

Jianren, you do it.

- I can't. I'm afraid of blood. No.
- Are you kidding me?

You're used to fights and bloodshed,
yet you're afraid of this?

This is different from
that kind of bloodshed.

No, I can't do it.

Jianren, you're a coward.

How could you chicken out
when it comes to the crunch?

- Do it, Jianren.
- This isn't the time for a chat.

Hurry up or the baby will suffocate.

Be careful. Don't hurt the baby.

Okay.

Does every mother
have to go through this?

If I'm nabbed,
I won't tell them about you.

That's because
you're not a mother to me.

Witch, how dare you hit me!

- Mum.
- Mum.

(Malay)

Don't worry. We'll find Mr Liew.

Mum.

Mum.

- Damian.
- Auntie.

Are you okay?

Auntie, thank you for saving us.

Don't mention it.

I'm really fine.

Mum.

Think positive.

Mum.

I'm really sorry.

Don't cry.

Excuse me, boys.

We just arrested two suspects and
we need more information from you.

Can you help us?

- Sure.
- Come.

Sir, take a look.

Crap, I'll get you.

The latitude is 2.88866,
the longitude is 102, 0.37582.

It's just further up north.
Can you go rescue him now?

Are you still trying to flee?
There's nowhere you can go.

Crap.

You messed up my hair.

Kill him.

Crap, you messed up my hair again.

Damn. Kill him.

How dare you mess up my hair!

Get lost.

Damn. So you think
you're a good fighter?

I lost one million dollars
because of you.

You've got to pay the price
with your life.

- Police.
- What police?

That's what you shout
whenever I try to shoot.

It's very irritating. Go to hell.

Police. Hands up.

Teacher who ran naked fought
drug lord and saved his students

Teacher and students teamed up
to fight against the drug traffickers

Although we improved on
the design of Loan Shark Two

we still lost the competition.

But we weren't discouraged

because we've learnt
to think positive.

There's an upside and a downside
to everything.

It all depends on
the choice you make.

Like Mr Liew said

naughty kids may choose to blame
their parents and even society

but eventually, they're the ones
who have to go to jail and get caned.

Not all parents have
good parenting skills.

By hating your parents,
you're actually punishing yourself.

You should take charge of
your own future.

As long as you don't
give up on yourself

the society won't give up on you.

As long as you keep the faith

you'll be a winner
in everything you do.

Although we didn't win
the competition

the police recognised
our creative talents

and decided to award us scholarships.

Hi, big brother.

I'm so proud of you. You're my hero.

Can I have an autograph?

Here? Sure.

Here.

- Thank you, big brother.
- You're welcome.

Mr Liew.

Dad, Mum, let me introduce
my teacher to you.

- Mr Liew, they're my parents.
- It's very nice to meet you.

- Hello.
- Mr and Mrs Ong.

Hello.

- Hello.
- Hello.

Thank you, Mr Liew.
I'm such a useless mother.

I actually mistook this piece of jade
for a stone.

Mum, if Brother is a piece of jade,
what are we then?

Actually, you're all diamonds.

Your mum and I will spend more time
to help you shine

and you'll only get brighter.

And then you'll pawn us?

No.

Hey, Mrs Ong.

Hello, everyone.

Let me tell you. Think positive.
Many parents are like us.

They've never discovered
the gems at home.

But I'm different.

I've always known that I have
two pieces of emerald at home.

But I had no time for them and
I let them shine on their own.

As a result, they lost their lustre.

Fortunately, they didn't become
worthless stones.

I have to thank this teacher.
Thank you very much, CK.

Don't mention it.
They're already very bright kids.

That's true. They're very brave too.

I think my mum is more
courageous than me.

Yes, my mother is my hero.

So when are you going to
teach me perfect English?

Anytime. And can you
teach me Singlish?

No.

Ladies and gentlemen, please
get ready for the awards ceremony.

And you can drop the gang.

Drop the gang? It should be
"leave the gang".

And you can drop the gang.

Leave the gang. Gosh.

And you can drop the gang.
Are you happy with that?

Leave the gang. Gosh.

You're also a son.
He's also your son.

Cut.

And action.

And action.

You haven't...

You...

Fine, I'll eat it.

I can't stuff it down
my throat anymore.

- Give him a tissue, hurry.
- Okay.

- Read it along the way.
- Okay.

He wrote that...

Cut.

- She sprained her ankle.
- Be careful.

Weijie, stop.

Let's go.

I really want to help you.

Cut.

Okay?

What?

Next, let's hear
some insights from

the Member of
Parliament, Madam Tan.

Madam Tan.

The camera panned this way?

Our budget is limited.
Therefore...

- Mr Boi.
- Thank you.

I think there are
two sides to this incident.

I've forgotten the upside.

Thank you. Sorry.

- What should we do?
- What should we do?

- The scissors.
- The scissors?

Where are the scissors?

The scissors.

Okay.

Teck and Lim...

Sorry. Jack, sorry.

Hello? Okay.

Sorry. Stop laughing.

Okay, one more time.

Teck and Lim found
the Geylang boss

at the Geylang Beer Garden.

The Geylang boss

is at the Geylang Beer Garden.

You're smart, aren't you?

Why did it turn out this way?
