"Dad, I can't breathe." "Just a little longer." "Look at all this dirt." "No point in scrubbing lightly." "All done." "Thank you." "Switch." "Come on, your mother's waiting." "Here's the shaved ice." "That looks really good." "I'm excited!" "Oh my god, it's huge." "You have a son to keep you company." "You can go into the spa together." "I have to go by myself." "It gets boring." "We should have had another baby." "A girl." "You pay for your scrubs." "You get a professional." "David is an amateur!" "David, when you get married, I'll come to the spa with my daughter-in-law." "What if my wife doesn't want to scrub your back'?" "Why wouldn't she want to?" "Gross?" "What's gross about that?" "Leave him alone." "It's too early to talk about marriage." "He can start dating!" "It's just dating." "Don't you want to meet a pretty Korean girl?" "What if I marry a white girl?" "A white girl is OK." "If you want." "But how would your father and I communicate with her?" "How would we talk to her?" "To our grandchildren?" "You should marry a Korean woman and have Korean kids." "Wouldn't that be nice?" " I have to go back to the restaurant." " Why?" "Just a last minute thing." " It might take a while." " Don't stay out too late." "Bye, Dad." " You're sweating all over the floor!" " I'm using a towel!" "Really..." "You're stirring up dust." "Working out after you've gotten all clean at the spa." "I left some apple for you in the fridge." "I'm going to bed now." "Last one, David!" "You're getting kinda buff!" "You're growing up!" "Just too many heavy boxes!" "This is all there is?" "It doesn't seem right." " Where's the rest of it?" " That's everything." "Your dad only ordered half." "He says this is all Dad ordered." "I don't know about that- This won't even last us two weeks-." "This is the right order." "How can that be'?" "This won't last us two weeks-." "It's enough." "I went over the inventory and we used to order too much." "What do you mean?" "I'm telling you this is not enough." "Are they all right?" "Yeah, they'll be fine." "See you next time!" "Mom, there's no one here." "You still have to clear the table." "Mr. Shim!" "Hello Soyoung." "Hello David." "What a surprise!" "Would you like something to eat?" "No, no." "Where is Jin?" "Jin." "Mr. Shim is here." " Mr. Shim!" " Jin, can we speak privately?" "Right back here." "It's nothing." "Watch the front." "Can you translate this?" "What does this mean?" "It's the formal way... of saying I'm sorry." "We're going to be OK, aren't we?" "I passed by your restaurant the other day." "I saw it's closed!" "What happened'?" "Is everything OK?" "Of course." "We actually sold the business." "We got a great offer out of the blue." "This young couple wants to take over." "Well, that's fantastic." "Congratulations!" "So, you're already retired?" "No, no." "I need to keep busy." "Otherwise, I'd go crazy." "I'll pick up some part-time job." "You know, we lost a waitress at the restaurant the other day." "If you're looking for something, you could come work for me." " That sounds... wonderful." " It's a full-time position." "I'll take it." "And, David, what are you going to do now?" "He's going to college." "To USC, like my Eddie'?" "We haven't decided yet." "You have to have good SAT scores to get into USC." "You should look into this SAT prep class that Eddie took." "You know, I could arrange for David to shadow Eddie at USC fora day or two." "It would be a good experience!" "I'm sure Eddie's very busy with his studies." "Nonsense." "Don't worry about that." "They were such good friends at church." "It'll just be a day or two." "This is too kind of you, Mrs. Baek." "Isn't that exciting?" "Thank Mrs. Baek." "Thank you." "Oh, don't thank me." "You should thank God." "Dad!" "Noodles, rice." "What else?" "Anything that won't spoil." "The canned goods." "Your grandmother didn't really want us to open this restaurant." "But you kept saying "Grandma's Tofu House!" "Grandma's Tofu House!"" "She was so touched." "That's the only reason we opened up the place." "I know." "I know the story." "Jin!" "What's going on back there?" "Go help your father." "I bet no one will even notice we're gone." "OK." "Let's go." "What is this?" "They look like women." "I think they look kind of cute." "You should try something new with your hair." "Mom, no way." "Both hands." "You didn't take the SAT when you were in high school?" "He did, but he didn't prepare for it." "We were busy with the restaurant." "I recommend David take our longer, more intensive schedule." "How much does it cost'?" "It's more expensive, but... it's really what David needs." "We spoke with Mrs. Baek." "We go to the same church." "She said we could get a discount." "Yes, that's 10% oft." "Our friends and family discount." "That's not a discount." "Can David just attend the regular classes?" "I think those might be just fine for him." "With these scores..." "I don't know." "Stop it, David." "It's OK." "OK, we'll do it." "The intensive class." "But can we pay for each class separately?" "One class at a time?" "Yes, that's not a problem." "Are you sure'?" "Work hard, OK?" "There." "Turn right there." "Wish me luck." "Jin, I'll ask if they need a cook." "No, don't worry." "It'd be convenient if we worked at the same place." "I can find my own job." "Fine." "Whatever you want." "Call me tomorrow morning when you're ready to get picked up." "OK, Dad." "Try to have fun, all right?" "Be open minded." "This is a men's spa only." "There's a 24 hour women's spa across the street." "Oh, sorry." "We didn't see it." "What's wrong with him'?" "It's the only thing I could find." "It's just tor today." "Let me do the talking." "Mrs. Kim?" "Yes?" "Hello, I'm Jin Cho." " I'm Joon's friend." " Who's that?" "This is my son, David." "Nope." "No way." "I told your friend we only need one person today." "I'm not going to pay for another worker." "Mrs. Kim, please." "He's a good worker." "He knows how to hustle." "You don't mind some heavy lifting, do you?" "Not at all." "He only makes half-pay." "And you better be done faster." "Grab shins from the back." "Thank you, Mrs. Kim!" "Thank you!" "$20, $40, $60, $80, $100." "$100." "$100?" "That's not enough." "You took too long." "We missed a job in the afternoon because of you." "Now we have to do it tomorrow for less money." " We'll come back tomorrow." " I don't need you tomorrow." "I don't need you or your son." "My regular guy is back." "And he works twice as fast as you two." "Please, Mrs. Kim." "Nope." "Don't write in your prep book." "We should try to sell it back after you take the test." "A job?" "What brought this on?" "I want to make money..." "Where are you going to work?" "I don't know-." "You want to be a waiter?" "Or a dish washer?" "David!" "How nice to see you!" "Is it OK if David stays here to study?" "How was your trip to USO?" "It was good." "Was my Eddie a good host?" "Yes, he was." "I learned a lot." "Just study hard and go to USC next year!" "Otherwise, you'll have to work here with your mom!" "Please tell Eddie we're so thankful he showed David around USC." "He does whatever I say." "We have important guests coming in five minutes." "Soyoung, can you get everything ready?" "I want to change into something a little nicer." "David, I'll see you later." "Focus on the SAT." "You have to think long term." "If you don't go to college, what are you going to do with your life?" "$20, please." "Actually, I'm here about the job." "There's someone here to see you about the job opening." "Most of my previous helpers have been Mexican." "You're quiet." "Have you been here before?" "No, sir." "Never." "Why do you want this job'?" "To help my parents." "OK." "I'll pay you in cash at the end of your shifts." "You'll work a few days a week." "Some day shifts." "Some night shifts, too." "No benefits." "No health care." "But you can use the spa after your shifts as much as you like." "It's good for your health." "Thank you." "You did well today." "Good job." "Thank you." "See you next time." "Yes, sir." "I'm a very fast cook." "20 years cooking experience." "What are your plans today?" "Just SAT class." "Good." "How is that going?" "It's OK." "Just OK'?" "We are paying a lot of money for that class." "Jin!" "I have to go!" "How did you do on your last practice test'?" "I did a lot better." "Really?" "That's great." "Jin, I said have to go now." "I'm going to be really late!" "Yes, sir." "I know where it is." "Yes, thank you." "Thank you so much." "OK." "Let's go." "Jin!" "Don't rush me!" "I'm really proud of you." "Could I speak with the Spa Manager'?" "He's not in today." "But he left you a list of things to do." "I was thinking about quitting the job." "I don't know." "Talk to him tomorrow." "Excuse me." "I have to clean the sauna." "It's going to take me a few minutes." "No problem." "Oh, it's hot." "When are you done at the academy'?" "In a few weeks." "When are you going to take the test'?" "Please stop and just buy another one!" "No way!" "I'm not eating till this damn thing is working!" "This air conditioner needs to work." "We paid way too much money for this thing to break." "Watch." "I'll fix it." "Are you ready for your exams?" "I understand, but you didn't have to call the police." "We could have solved this problem on our own." "IFS dirty-IFS filthy-." "It's like some kind of game to them." "I don't feel safe here." "I want my money back and I want this guy arrested." "What exactly did you see'?" "Take a look for yourself!" "You really don't believe me?" "You think I'm making this up'?" "I'm so sorry." "I've tried to ignore it but it's gotten worse." "The next time..." "There won't be a next time." "You talk too much!" "Hurry up and get him out of here." "Give me my money back." "If you see anything strange... you have to tell me." "That's not enough." "It's plenty." "He's one year old." "Don't put our names on the envelope." "They have to know it's from us." "They're going to think we're cheap." "Then put in some of your money!" "I can't see!" "He's just sitting there." "What did he grab'?" "Did he pick the money'?" "It means he'll be rich." "I don't remember what you picked." "I don't remember either." "Let's be quick." "They're closing soon." "So close to these strangers, so far from Dad." "This is where she wanted to be." "I should have buried her back in Korea." "She wanted to be here with us, with David." "OK, let's get this done." "Thank you, David." "For what?" "For trying." "For helping us at the restaurant." "I liked working in the restaurant." "You are supposed to be better than that." "I'm not." "Yes you are!" "You're better than that!" "We didn't move here so that you could move furniture." "Go to college!" "Get a girlfriend!" "Move out!" "What about you and Mom'?" "Don't worry about us!" "We'll be OK." "I thought I could do better for you." "I thought I could do more." "Such a good kid!" "That's why you'll make it." "I know you will-You're going to find success for all of us." "So cute." "It must be nice." "We should have had another baby." "You always seemed so bored as a child." "Maybe life with a sibling would have been more exciting for you." "Your dad and I talked about it." "It would have been too expensive." "We didn't have the money." "We didn't have the space." "It's OK." "Our old place..." "It's so sad." "This was our first place." "What about the pink apartment?" "That was our second place." "We moved there after you were born when Grandma lived with us." "Before that, your dad and I lived here together." "Your dad flew over from Korea a few weeks before me." "He told me over the phone that he had found the perfect place." "He said there were lots oi Korean families in the building." "When I got to the US, he picked me up in a Cadillac he bought for cheap." "I was so impressed." "How old were you and Dad?" "I was twenty-three, so your dad was..." "twenty-six." "Moving to America..." "We were so excited to be here." "Are you OK?" "It's been along day." "Let's go back." "Mom, go to bed." "It hurts." "What are you doing?" "Get up." "Don't help him!" "I can do it." "I can do it myself." "I can do everything." "You can't do anything!" "You can't do anything right!" "You get drunk, night after night." "And I'm trying to make enough for us, breaking my back" "You're just drinking our lives away!" "What are you'?" "What happened to you'?" "I'm sorry." "I'm so sorry." "It's too much." "It's just too much." "Follow him." "Make sure he doesn't drive." "For two." "Is the Spa Manager here?" "He's out for the evening." "Some emergency." "I'm sorry."
