Colic: dek hen pee

---

Alright Meaw, well if you cam...no,

not too long. OK.

- Your documents.

- Goodbye.

Good. Now say "bye, bye." 1..2..3..

Say "bye, bye." 1..2..3..

I'm in the middle of casting some children.

Pong. Aoy sent us a picture of her son.

Jimmy is so adorable.

Let's talk later. It's too noisy.

I can hardly hear you.

I'll see you at home, ok? I've got to work.

Alright dear.

I guess this means you're my boss Prae.

It's not definate yet.

Well, congratulations. Gotta run.

Prae, Pookie wants to see you.

OK.

Let me stop by my office first. I'll catch you up.

Alright.

Prae!

COLIC:

Hey...you're doing the washing late tonight.

We're not ready for this yet.

Prae, let's get married.

Why don't you go in...I want to check our stuff.

Prae, what are you carrying there?

It looks heavy and you're pregnant.

Let me help.

Where's Pong?

He's with the rest of our stuff.

Just leave them here.

Let the removal men take care of it.

Over there is fine.

That's it.

Hello mom.

Pong. Where are you.

How could you let your wife carry such heavy

things...

...while pregnant?

Oh mom, it wasn't that heavy.

Mine is much heavier.

OK then, hurry up and put them down.

Leave it there.

Let the removal men take care of it.

Is that a picture of your parents?

Yes.

You're very good.

Growing up without any parents.

They would be very proud.

Stay with me and you won't be lonely.

It won't be long before we have a little one

running round here.

Let me go check on something downstairs.

Where are you going, mom?

Just downstairs.

OK, mom.

Prae, don't you think we should turn this room

into a nursery?

Yes. That would be nice, it's so spacious.

And it gets a nice breeze.

Just give it a lick of paint.

Benn! Benn, are you home?

Benn.

This is Prae. She'll be staying with us.

Don't mind her, she hasn't been well.

One day I'll tell you about it.

What's that?

The best cake ever! It looks great.

It looks amazing.

I wish you both a happy marriage.

Thanks. Thanks so much.

I wish you both much happiness.

Thanks, mom.

It's me.

It's our wedding.

Here, let me have the camera.

Just look at these boys getting drunk down

there.

Yeah, yeah. Let them be.

Let them go crazy for once.

They're always getting drunk.

Look at them. Go for it guys!

Hey Jean, we're out of whisky. Can we get

some more?

Don't Prae. Don't spoil them.

That's enough boys, it's late.

Why are you still drinking?

Give the newly weds some rest.

Stop complaining.

Get Pong up here so he can carry his bride off

to bed.

Hurry up.

Prae, just go to bed.

Don't bother to wait up for them.

What's wrong, Pong?

Nothing.

See what you get?

Have they left already?

Well. it's 4am.

Who would want to stay any longer.

They have home to go to, you know.

My head is killing me.

Serves you right!

Pong, can I ask you something?

What?

What happened to Benn?

Benn, eh?

Well, from what I remember,

her husband was a soldier,

and he died, but not like a car accident.

He burned to death.

That's strange. Where you close to her?

And...

Hey, are you asleep?

I've resigned already.

It was becoming difficult to work with my

stomach like this.

I was bored as well!

So you feel like a failure?

Why don't you make something

and sell it here.

You can help me with the illustrations for the

books too?

You can work from home until your baby

is old enough.

Then you can help me with my job.

It'll give me time to get my masters.

I can graduate in 2 years.

OK, at least I won't be so bored.

Bored? What's wrong? Tell me about it.

Well, nothing really.

I just think that the house is too far.

With the traffic, Pong gets home so late.

Sometimes at midnight or even 1am.

You know his job has no fixed schedule.

Stop worrying so much during your

pregnancy, will you?

Besides, you're married now.

I don't know. I'm not sure if he's ready.

It's like if I forced him into it.

Pong is in the shower?

Yes.

He got home early today.

The production wrapped up at 2:00 am, so he

slept in today.

Look at him. He's eating and sleeping at all

the wrong times.

You have to tell him.

You look like you're at full term.

When are you due?

The date has been set for next week.

Where are you off to? Have something to eat.

I have an emergency at work.

Go ahead and eat without me.

It'll be another late night.

I'll see you later, mom.

Why are you in such a rush?

You're missing dinner.

I'll get it.

Hello.

May I speak to Pong.

Who's calling?

Ann.

He's already left.

So he's on his way? Thank you.

Benn, do you want to join us for dinner?

I brought this.

Old newspapers.

That's just what I need.

Let me take them.

Don't be afraid.

Don't be afraid.

Don't be afraid.

Affraid of what?

Are you ok, Benn?

Has Benn gone?

What's her rush?

Hello?

Are'nt you asleep yet?

I've just finished.

I'm on my way home. Do you want anything?

No. I'm ready for bed.

Go to sleep then. You don't have to wait up.

Ok.

Who would wait up?

Take me...

Take me instead.

Mom... Mom...

What's wrong Prae?

Benn's place is on fire.

Quickly, call Benn.

I'll call the fire brigade.

Benn... Benn... Benn...

Benn... Benn...

Benn...

Benn... Benn...

Benn...

Benn...

Ok now. Take long, deep breaths.

Breathe and push when you can.

Long, deep breaths.

Slowly. Long breaths.

Your cervix is fully dilated

and the baby is in position.

Breath long and deep.

He's on his way. Easy Prae.

I can see his head. Looking good.

Push... Push... Great!

It's a baby boy.

He's so strong and healthy.

He has your nose, don't you think?

No. I think it looks more like yours.

But I think he has my mouth.

Really?

- I'll leave the birth certificate with you.

- No Problem.

Look at him.

He's not interested in anything

but his baby boy.

I think so too.

Wow, he was born at 11:59pm.

One more minute and he would have been

born on a different day,

but he's a Thursday baby.

Then... I'll go and take care of Benn's funeral

arrangements.

- Goodbye.

- Goodbye.

I feel so sorry for Benn.

She didn't have anyone except us,

but why would she do that to herself?

Sleep. Sleep little one.

I think he'd be happier in his basket.

You look awkward carrying him.

You only close your eyes for me.

Prae, turn the computer off?

The pictures are done.

Just pull the plug?

No, it's ok. I'll take care of it.

Go to sleep.

What's the matter, little guy?

There's no need to cry.

Don't cry. Come on. Don't cry.

Come on son, stop crying.

Why are you crying so much, Pan?

We cannot detect anything wrong

with your son.

He was born very healthy.

But he was crying like he was in pain.

He cried all the way here, doctor.

Then we should check him more thoroughly.

Your son appears to have colic.

Colic? What is Colic?

It's a medical condition,

but you have nothing to worry about.

It will last for about 3-6 months,

then the child will grow out of it.

It's what we use to call "The howling months".

So what makes him cry like that, doctor?

Is there anything wrong with him?
