"Get ready!" "He's got a gun." "He's never without one." "He's murdered so many?" "Maybe hundred!" "Take good care, safety first." "There he is!" "Harn!" "Surrender!" "Pause!" "This is the end of Harn, the murderer... with horrifying criminal record all over Thailand." "In Focus Special Report..." "Crime Today..." "I'm Pasinee Srikamroong." "Thanks." "Can you take care the insert shots for me?" "I'm in a hurry." "Where?" "Minister Damrong's AIDS." "Prevention Committee meeting." "Maybe another story for In Focus." "Thanks." "Bye..." "Let's go." "HIV virus which causes AIDS." "This is computer image to show the magnified HIV." "The spots around it are DP 120 use for clinging to our cells." "The round component is virus membrane and the inside is called core membrane." "The center is most vital for the virus." "It's INA gene." "Where was I?" "Which is enzyme for virus multiplication." "The virus membrane, the outer ring..." "This is to urge the body to build our antibody which enables us to detect the virus." "Today, the screening's as accurate as 99.72%." "Could I have an interview?" "Hi..." "Hi..." "What's the progress on AIDS detection program?" "We can almost tell you the good news that Thailand may become the first to discover AIDS vaccine." "How far from success?" "About 85% complete." "And stage 1, 2 and 3?" "Stages 1 and 2 are 95% successful... stage 3 awaits more proofs." "It needs continuous attention." "Prof. Anuwat!" "The screening's as accurate as 99.72%." "You said the blood check isn't yet 100% safe?" "Does it include the blood bank and donated blood?" "Yes, it does." "I wonder... why can't it be 100%?" "Yes, it can, but..." "But what?" "Don't make me say it." "You'd better ask the Minister." "I oughtn't say it." "This our fabulous Dad." "Smile please." "This the naughty Bobby." "His toys are everywhere... even on the stairs." "This is Rose, Bobby's sis." " Very clever and hard-working." " Mom..." "You'll be the top." " This wan." "What're you doing?" " Cleaning glasses." "Crystal clear!" " This is May, our eldest." " Hello." "Pretty but too plumb!" "Work hard to shape up." " Mom, you're fatter than me." " No." "Let me show how fat you are." "This is Margaret, our pretty Mom..." "an excellent cook." "Today she's over-excited with her new camera and forgot to cook for me." "I'm so hungry..." "I'm starving." "Rose!" "Don't snatch it!" "Don't snatch other's stuff!" "Come on, give it back." "Rose!" "Rose!" "Dad... something's wrong with Rose!" "Rose... what's wrong?" "Look at my finger." "Don't brink." "Please open your mouth." "Let me see here." "What did you find?" "What happened to Rose?" "Nothing..." "It's normal." "It should have cured by now." "I wonder..." "Wonder what?" "Let me recheck." "I thought you'd be in hospital." "I've packed to stay with you." "I'm not that bad." "Rose, I heard you're ill?" "Nothing serious, just fainting." "Like an old woman." " Let's go." " Yes, Granny." "I'll come round in the evening." " You should see how she is." " Yes." "This is so outdated now." "Most people knew it already." "Yeah." "But no-one knows nothing's been done at all." "Some of the blood for transfusion is HIV infected." "You think you could dig it up?" "Think so." " What happened to Rose?" " I don't know." "Rose is ill?" "I was told she fainted." "She's too young to faint." "Go to visit and buy her something." "You don't have to tell him." "Rose and Sarit are childhood sweet, aren't you?" "Just friends, really." "Rose is only 13." "She'll be a big girl soon." "Hello, Prof. It's Pasinee." "Pasinee from In Focus." "Anything I can do for you?" "Yes, certainly." "I have AIDS!" "Truly, it's been 9 years." "But I'm still normal." "See, do I look different from you?" "We meet every Sunday." "To talk and to do things." "Our Crescent Center is a hotline center." "We operate 24 hours." " Please try." " I can ring any day?" "No fee for membership." "Anyone can be." "Whether infected or not." "Believe me, no-one understands us better than ourselves." "We can always help each other." "Hello, please." "Thank you." "This is the report you want." "Thank you." "It is anonymous... we use number." "As you can see we never have any patient infected by blood transfusion." " You have 6 thousand..." " and 315 cases." "Not one of them infected because of blood transfusion?" "No." "As the statistic goes." "1 in 20,000." "I think one is already too many." "How are you today?" "I brought some drink for you." "Let me pour it." "Come close." "What is it?" "Can you help me get the thing?" "I could be dead anytime now." "Let me die happy." "If I'm caught, I can't come in here again." "I really need it." "Just one!" "Doc!" "It's bed no. 4." "Let me sleep with you." "You've a nightmare again?" " Rose, a present for you." " What is it?" "Close your eyes and hold out." "You want it?" "Just on sale a few moments ago." "I know you like it." "Good morning." "Let's dance." " You like it?" " Very much." "Whose CD?" "Sarit just bought me." "Yes... since when you like Sam?" "You like sweet music, don't you?" "Can't I change?" "Or you've something with Sam?" "Smile!" "Smile!" "Enjoy dancing?" "Come on." "Turn and smile." "Here we are." "Please have some, it'll give you strength." "But I'm alright." "Just a little bit." "Finish it, please." " How are you?" " Please hand me the bag." "You've it hidden in there?" " Whose picture?" " My son... working in a bank." "I thought you had no relatives." "That's why you're in this impoverished ward." "Who would have no relatives?" "When I'm gone, let him know." "Still a long time yet." "No, not so long now." "Don't to come yourself." "The patient is close to me." "The yellow part indicates infection." "Can I speak to Dr. Suchart, please?" "Hi... it's Rabin here." "Is there anything?" "I want your opinion." "The phone isn't appropriate." "Will 5 o'clock be OK?" "I'll have O. R. But should be OK." "So, 5 o'clock then." "Goodbye." "This way please." "Hi, please wait in the room." " Good evening." " Good evening." "Sit down." "I just had Rose's blood test result." "Her blood has some problem." "Have the pills." "Sleep well." "I could hardly sleep." "Rose kept coughing all night." "I'm very exam time." "I can't do well if I don't have enough sleep." "Your sis isn't well." " As always." " Don't I want to cure?" "Bobby's still in the bath?" "Typical him." "Whose picture, May?" "To beautiful May, from Sam." "Bobby, where did you get it?" "Give it to me!" "Stop it!" "Have your breakfast." "Bobby, give it to me." "Who's Sam?" "A singer." "He toured a concert at my school." "So I asked for autograph." "I said enough!" "The school bus is here." "Wasted time... no breakfast!" "Have some milk." "Let's go, Bobby." "I don't know how much you knew about it." "I mean the HIV infected blood." "Quite considerable." "It's been going on since the last government." "In fact, since the government before last." "The then PM learned of HIV infected blood in blood bank." "What did he do?" "He approved a budget for it." "But nothing happened when the new government came in." " But the problem remained?" " Yes." "Why don't you approve another budget to fight the problem?" "You can do it as Chairman of AIDS Prevention Committee." "It isn't that easy." "We've limited budget." "We aren't a rich country." "Do you understand priority?" "What is more important?" "The chance of getting infected this way is too little to get the money for what is one in a million." "So?" "OK." "Your assignment." "Thanks." "How should we begin?" "I think from blood transfusion infected patient and focus on him or her." "Where can you find that person?" "I'll ask Prof. Anuwat." "It's so unethical." "If I disclose the names of HIV patients to you." "However they are infected." "But the fact is you can be infected from blood transfusion?" "How can your program help?" "I want to air the blood transfusion infected patient." "Just someone normal, who one day became infected and has to die before his or her time." "All because the government has no 100% proof blood check." "I want the whole country to share the grief." "I still can't help you." "What if I search them myself?" "Anyone ever try drinking your own piss?" "Anyone?" "It's urine, please." "No, never, how could you?" "Have you, boxer?" "Once or twice." "How can you?" "It's said your own piss can cure it, so I tried." "It's our own, why can't we?" "I have it mornings and evenings." "When you're drunk." "What're they talking about?" "Who are they?" "AIDS infected people." "Why sharing a restaurant with normal people like us?" "I can't eat now." "Yes, I agree." "Excuse me, any doubt?" "What's your problem?" "No." "Do you think we have AIDS?" "Do you?" "Yes, all of us." "So sorry." "Here's the Prof." "Prof., is it true piss can cure AIDS?" "Nonsense, Nothing can cure it yet." "All of you know Pasinee from In Focus." "Pasinee is researching on AIDS and want us to help." "Glad to know all of you." "Any of you had it from blood transfusion?" "What's that?" "So ugly!" "Not your business!" "Don't be moody." "Do you want tea?" "You want me to tell Mom?" "Up to you." "I love him, you know?" "My sis looks daydreaming." "Come here." " I'm in love." " Not again!" " It's real, this time." " How do you know?" "It's from here." "It's another sick love story of a girl called Nayana." "Apart from you, I never love anyone like him before." "Really?" "I love you most in the world." "You might not believe me." "Even if we are half-sister but I love you just like my real sister." "I'm having a shower." "What's wrong with you?" "What's wrong with you?" "Nothing." " You look strange." " How?" "You look unusual." "Nothing really." " Nobody wears it." " But you're a novice." " And why don't you wear it?" " I'm a pro... no need." " Rose, let's have a race." " Yes." " Turn around at the other end." " OK." "Wait!" "You're cheating!" "Rose!" " Are you hurt?" " Yes, I am." "What's happened?" "How are you, any wound?" "Sarit, did you touch her?" "Let me see." " Why?" " Why what?" "Why did you wash Sarit's hand?" "Because he had Rose's blood on his hand." "Rose's blood." "What did the doctor say?" "Rose's infected..." "She's got AIDS." "Why didn't you tell anyone?" "I didn't dare." "I didn't dare tell Rose." "I'm afraid of knowing." "What?" "The truth how she got it." "I don't believe it." "The doctor checked 3 times." "How could it be?" "Yes." "How could it be?" "I just wonder how you got it?" "I don't know how." "Rose, we won't blame you." "We just want to know how you got it." "Rose, just tell us." "It'll be alright." "I have nothing to tell." "Will you not believe me?" "Doesn't matter how you got it." "You still don't believe me." "I really don't know." "Excuse me, Dr. Anuwat said he still has a patient." "Today we've had more than 300." " Most of the people here are..." "...infected, yes." "Thank you." "How are you today?" "It was a strong dose." "It isn't the medicine." "Family problem?" "Why don't you come to the center?" "You don't understand." "No one else understands us more than ourselves." "The doctor can see you now." " Thank you." " Please follow me." "And how about you?" "Can I have one please?" "Hello." " Please sit down." " Thank you." "Doctor Suchart rang about you." "I don't know whom to turn to." "So, let's get to know the HIV virus, shall we?" "How well do you know them?" "Maybe as much as anyone." "That means you know nothing." "Do you know the virus don't kill you?" "But they will weaken your body's immunity." "Then other diseases will attack easily and become the killer." "Isn't it all the same anyway?" "Not really." "Because if we look after ourselves against infection or if infected, we quickly receive treatment." "The infected patient can still enjoy a long life." "Hi." "This is Crescent Hotline Center." "I'm killing myself." "Wait!" "Cool it, please." "Tell me why you want to kill yourself?" "You know you're infected?" "Can you tell me?" "Maybe I can help you." "Don't be shy or ashamed." "I don't even know you." "Dad thought I slept with a boy." "So you think of killing yourself because he misunderstood you?" "Not thinking." "I'm killing myself." "So I believe you are." "But I think it's just a misunderstanding." "Can I ask you why Dad thought so?" "One gets AIDS after sleeping with a man." "But I never did." "You don't know who she is?" "No, she didn't say her name." "How old should she be?" "Not more than 13." "And already infected." "Do you recall Rose's operation when she was 8?" "She bled and was given blood." "Enough." "Can't you concentrate?" "This isn't a circus band." " Did you notice he's so moody?" " Yeah." "If you want to talk, leave!" "Others want to work." "Let's start from 2nd movement." "Don't sound like Chinese opera band." "You did it today and have it checked today, you won't know it yet." "Have to wait for window period." "About 3 months." "You did it yesterday and have a blood test." "You won't know the result." "Don't worry." "The Crescent Center." "It's for you, Sida." "Sida speaking." "Sure, I do remember you." "How are you?" "Are you afraid of dying?" "Yes, so is everyone." "But we can't get away from it." "I'm only 13, never tried alcohol nor cigarettes." "That's very good of you." "You don't understand." "I mean I won't have even a chance to try it now." "I have to die." "Do you know there's a lot I don't know." "I've never been aboard." "I've never been anywhere but Hua-Hin and Phuket." "I like Phuket." "My parents took me to party beaches in Phuket." "I went to the island too." "I've never been to a Disco." "I've never had a boyfriend." "I've never done nothing." "And I have to die before ever seen of done them." "Any better?" "You can see the Doctor." "Let's be frank about it." "Your girl is in stage 3." "Nothing can be done?" "As I said earlier." "If only we'd known and done something in time but..." "But what?" "There's high risk of more infection." "May, what's happened to Rose?" "Rose!" "Call Dad!" "Rose, what's happened?" "Fetch the medicine!" "May, get soaked towel!" "Bring the medicine!" "It took place 5 years ago." "Our record says your daughter had an emergency O. R. Here." "And had HIV from blood transfusion." "But the blood came from blood bank." "And had been safely checked free from HIV or any virus." "My girl had it from blood transfusion here." "Are you sure?" "You're avoiding responsibility." "I'm telling you only that there are several ways to get AIDS such as having sex." "My girl was infected from blood transfusion here." "But how can we know that?" "It was years ago." "Can I see the Director?" "He is away." "Who can I see then?" "Me." "But I don't think I can help you anyway." "You'd better talk to my lawyer then." "I suggest you not to sue." "And my girl has to die just like that?" "You can't sue the hospital for her infection." "You're bound to lose." "Who should be blamed then?" "I think the blood screening isn't yet 100% perfect." "Pretend that it's her fate." "And you might feel better." "I can't accept that." "You're bound to lose from the start in this case." "And I have to watch my girl suffering and dying without being able to do anything." "Well, not quite." "Call Pasinee from In Focus for me, please." "Both of you go to Lopburi and get some stock shots." "Pasinee speaking." "This is Thongdee." "Remember you told me about your search for HIV patient and you couldn't find anyone who got it from blood transfusion?" "I've found one now and is ready to give interview." "This is the house of Rabin and Margaret Wongchatthai." "Rabin is an orchestra conductor and Margaret is a ballet instructor." "They have 3 kids." "Nayana 15, Rose 13, and Ong-Art 10." "They look like a happy family with everything but..." "When I knew my kid was infected." "I felt the world was dark." "I hadn't known how she got it at first." "Rabin could hardly work when he knew Rose and AIDS." "Aids... a menacing word like cholera or black fever." "But the latter two could cure, AIDS could not." "Thailand has more than 800,000 HIV infected." "And the number is increasing everyday." "In 3 years, we'll have more than 3 million infected patients." "AIDS can pass mainly by having sex and blood transfusion." "We have quite free sexual relations in Thai society now." "Sharing of drug needles is also another way." "Rose's infection was due to blood transfusion." "Can you tell us what happened?" "I'm 13 from St. Caterine's school." "I'd dreamt of becoming a musician like my parents." "Rose had an operation." "She bled heavily and needed blood transfusion." "I don't know that blood given to her was HIV infected." "Until when she was unwell recently." "When she had a cold, it went on for very long." "After a check-up then we knew... she had AIDS." "At the moment she had fungi in the brain." "Sometimes I tremble." "I can't control myself." "I have unbearable headaches so deadly painful." "Luckily I have painkillers." "It could help momentarily." "I know I'm about to die." "But don't know why me?" "Why?" "Yes, indeed." "Why her?" "Pasinee Srikamroong." "In Focus." "She's the one." "So pity!" "The AIDS girl on TV last night." "How dare!" "Let's eat somewhere else." " Sarit." " Yes, Grandma." " I have to ask you a favor." " What?" " Stop seeing Rose." " Because she's got AIDS?" "You're my only grandson." "I don't want you to risk." "Mom, AIDS isn't easy to pass over." "If they get married one day?" "Still long time to go yet." "Rose is only 13." "Anything can happen." "But I don't want him to see Rose anymore." "Do you understand?" "Yes, Grandma." "We've always been friends because we're neighbors." "We grew up together." "Sarit's like my brother." "I don't have a brother." "Sarit, get inside!" "From the sound of it, his relatives didn't want him to see you." "They despise me because I have AIDS." "No, not that." "I think they knew you both are so close." "They must be so sorry and didn't want it happen to you." "I don't think Sarit despise you, he must love you in fact." "And you aren't wrong to love him." "So long as you don't have sex with him." "He'd be your good companion." " Miss May..." " What?" " What's wrong with Miss Rose?" " Why?" "Nothing wrong with her." "Has she got AIDS?" "What if she has it?" "AIDS is incurable." "It's deadly." "Ma'am..." "What's the matter?" " I want to leave." " Why?" "I feel uncomfortable." "About what?" "I know." "About Rose getting AIDS?" "If I get it, who'll be responsible?" "Then leave now." "Here's your pay and get out!" "You must understand me." "I do." "Now get out!" "Your friend's missing the class?" "Her mom don't want her to come here." "My mom wants me to stop too." "Open it wide." "Your sis has AIDS!" "Bobby." "What's the matter?" "Bobby, what's going on?" " My friends jested me." " Jested what?" "That my sister has AIDS." " Ignore those bad pals." " But they've done it everyday." "Since Rose went on TV." "I don't want to go to school." "Can I stay home for a while?" " They will forget soon." " No." "I don't want to go to school anymore." "Bobby." "Why did they do that to Bobby?" "He doesn't have AIDS." "It's me." "Why should he suffer?" "They are just kids." "I want to kill all Bobby's friends." "This girl has a problem." "What should I do?" "Ask her to see a psychiatrist." "She won't talk to anyone but me." "Do you know who she is now?" "So we have to wait on." "Crescent Hotline Center." "Sida isn't here." "Want to talk to someone else?" " Do you have her phone number?" " Wait a minute." " Anyone knows Sida's number?" " 719-2638" "It's 719-2638." "Sida speaking." "I can't bear it anymore." "You can't bear what?" "The doctor's prescription." "I'm dying." "But without them you'd die too." "I want to die." "Don't say that." "There's hope." "We must fight on." "One day it might be cured." "Impossible." "Nothing's impossible." "We must have hope." "But now do as prescribed first, can you promise that?" "Yes." "It's Damrong here." "Yes, Minister." "What have you done?" "To disclose the truth." "What truth?" "The budget's already passed." "Isn't that because of my program?" "Don't you think your program is that influential." "The nation's budget is limited." "Other things have priority." "Isn't AIDS important?" "Do you know you made people distrust out blood bank?" "Even if the chance for contamination is so small." "People who need it don't dare." "I think you only care about your rating." "Whatever you think but most people agree with us." "I don't think it'll end that easily." "You want to listen to my new CD?" "Won't you swim?" "I just remember I have a period, shouldn't swim." "I know you are afraid of getting AIDS from Rose, aren't you?" "No, you're wrong." "I'm not wrong, you'd better get out." "We're your friend and Rose's." "That's why you shouldn't shun Rose." "Get out!" " You don't understand us." " Get out!" "I don't know why they had to shun Rose." "We've been friends for years." "Better stop being friends." " It doesn't matter, May." " Why not?" "If Rose hadn't been on TV, nobody would know it." "They're bound to know it." "You can't hide these things." "It's my fault." "I didn't think carefully." "I only thought why Rose?" "I take the blame for not thinking carefully." "When approached by Pasinee." "I thought Rose on TV could help." "At least others too." "So they won't suffer like you." " Well, it worked." " Yeah, Rose became a hero." "Dad, it's my glass." "Sit down, I'll get the medicine." "Is it Rose?" "It's Anne." " You're just as I'd imagine you to be." " So you are." "Ring me anytime." "OK?" "You can always talk to me." "Good luck." "Anne." "Rose?" "Anuwat speaking." "It's Anne." "Remember the girl who kept calling me?" " Which one?" " The suicide one." "I know who she is." "A daughter of that musician." "Conductor Rabin?" "That's it." "She's with me now." "They're looking for her." "The police have been reported." "Please don't call her parents." "If taken home, she'd run away again." "And we wouldn't find her again." "She might do anything worse." "Just like when she first spoke to me." "You think she'd do it?" "Yes, I think so." "You'd better keep her now." "And see what to do next." "Breathe deeply." " How do you like it?" " Very nice." "Stay here for a few days and I'll call your parents to take you home." "No." "Don't talk about going home." "If you don't want me, I'll go elsewhere." "No, it isn't that." "You're welcome here." " So don't mention going home" " OK." " Miss Margaret, can I talk to you?" " We have nothing to talk." "We want Rose to appear on TV again." "We have thousands of calls supporting her." "The public want more budget to secure totally safe blood transfusion." "Because of Rose, the government has passed the money." "Blood screening will be 100% safe now." " We've won!" " And Rose?" "I want you to know we meant well to have Rose on TV again." "But it turned Rose into a monster shunned by all." "What do you mean?" "Rose's shunned by all because of your program." "Her friends, even by her best friends." "Even by any strangers." "I don't think it's that bad." "Think then!" "Rose's run away." "We don't know where she is." "She ran away because of your program." "And went to the city when I was your age." "Do people know you're infected?" "No." "They thought I helped the infected." " Let's get some food." " Good." "Is she the girl on TV?" " Is she the one on TV?" " Which one?" "In Focus." "Get lost!" "Thanks." "You ought to see the doctor." "I'm OK." "Go to sleep." "How did he know?" "I called him." "I thought you're my friend." "Yes, that's why I want you to go home." "No, you hate me." "Well, up to you." "Let's go home." "Thanks, Sida, for taking good care of her." "Dr. Anuwat said you'd be OK for a long time." "Rose!" "Anne!" " What are you doing?" " Fishing." " Caught any yet?" " Don't know." "There!" "You got one." " I heard Rose's back." " So what?" "Can I come to see her?" "How about your Grandma?" "Let her be angry." "Let's go." "Everyone please look normal." "Especially you, Sarit." " Rose was very sorry because of you."
