And in the end,
you're left all alone!
- Isn't that so, Mr. Chu?
- Yes.
Ma, why do you have to say that?
But it's true!
Prepare some fruit, Jia-Jen.
Okay.
Your second daughter?
The youngest.
Hello, Mrs. Liang.
Ah! How old are you?
Twenty.
It's time to have a boyfriend?
Don't wait too long
like your older sister.
Let's sit down.
Let me make some tea.
Can we draw now?
All right.
Mrs. Liang!
You are...
Jia-Chien.
That's right!
You're number two. Aren't you pretty?
Thank you.
Are you used to Taipei yet?
It's okay. Good to be home.
Do you have a boyfriend?
I'm sure you have several.
Keep your options open...
Don't listen to what men say,
but watch their actions, understood?
Isn't that right, Mr. Chu?
Your daughters aren't bad!
Yours are fine too.
Mine are no good!
My oldest is in the middle
of this nasty divorce.
Her husband was so sordid.
He fools around
I can't even mention the details!
And there's my youngest
with her white husband...
in the garage all weekend.
He eats hamburgers
And when I fry rice,
I tell you,
it was like
Mr. Chu,
I'm sure you don't mind, do you?
Of course not. Please.
Old witch!
A breeze blows in... fluttering through
your clothes, across your smile.
In a dreamy garret, I am keeping
my late autumn love for you.
Late autumn love...
So many times,
I want to say I love you...
So often, I want to say I'm sorry
you cried, this fate. It's over.
It's over.
But give me just one moment,
one more look
Don't take everything away...
Another chance... a little tenderness...
Don't let me hurt so bad...
You can make me happy... make me sad...
Make me willing
to give you everything.
Thank you.
I'm new here,
so I'm not familiar with everyone.
So I nominate Teacher Chu for a song.
Be careful!
Teacher, what do you want to sing?
That won't be necessary.
I'll sing, Love's Commandments.
Love is forever, patient, and kind.
Love isn't jealous,
love isn't boastful or crazy.
Love doesn't do shameful things...
A soprano!
You have a great voice.
You too.
Right. I wanted to ask you!
Are you free this Sunday?
I'm taking the volleyball team
on an outing.
Do you want to come?
An outing?
You should get some sun!
Join us if you've got
nothing else to do.
Think about it and let me know. Bye.
Don't crowd me! Be quiet!
What do you want?
Curried beef and rice!
And you?
Fried rice with egg.
It's too easy for Grandpa Chu.
He won't do it.
Something more difficult.
Here is Mom's lunchbox.
...and tomorrow's menu.
Bye!
You're right.
half as much as they're asking.
To think that the chief
was going to offer $30 million!
Hey?
Great.
This is why you get the big bucks.
No wonder
you're so tired all the time!
You should try it...
In one morning,
I've already killed 2,000 aliens
and saved the world.
What did you accomplish this morning?
A small headache.
How could you kill those cute aliens?
You have time to give me a hand?
Sure.
find something Chinese for him.
He has plenty of these already.
He's interested in Chinese culture?
I wish.
I can't believe that in a few years,
my son is growing up
to be an American.
Sometimes I look at him
and wonder if he's actually my son.
He was raised in America,
and his mother doesn't mind.
His mother?
How does she feel about the time?
She's glad I'm not around.
I think the only reason
we're not divorced...
...is that we're both too busy!
That sounds so cynical, doesn't it?
I'm just as cynical
when it comes to my personal life.
Sometimes I wish I could just...
Pick up and fly away.
Seems like that's
what you'll be doing pretty soon.
I thought that was the answer, too.
As a result, I really messed things up
after I graduated from Chen-Kong.
Chen-Kong university?
Yeah... after graduation,
my old man had a post for me
in his chemical business.
Chemical?
That's right...
remember the whiskey lab?
I actually enjoyed it as a subject.
It's the chaos in my life.
There was a lot of pressure
from my parents, my girlfriend.
I guess I didn't have the courage.
So I left.
Then you went to the U.S.?
It wasn't great
but it was better
for everyone in the long run.
You okay?
This looks Chinese?
That's Harvey.
You have no idea
how much I suffered
from those kids' shows.
Wanna hear the theme?
Please don't.
What the hell,
I'll just buy this one. He'll like it.
Uncle Chu!
Jin-Rong,
what's wrong?
Is it the detective?
No. Shan-Shan is not feeling well.
She won't be going to school.
So you...?
I was wondering why her lunch box
was always so clean.
No one could ever
finish all my short ribs before!
Hope you don't mind.
Of course not.
But what about
the lunches I'd prepared for her?
I ate them myself,
down to the last bite.
How embarrassing...
a master chef like you,
eating my lunches!
I was more than happy to.
Besides, I lost my sense of taste,
so it's the feeling that counts.
All right. I should go now.
Don't tell Shan-Shan
that I know about this.
She'd like a little secret
between you two.
Yes, I understand.
Bye.
I loved him so much.
How could he do this to me?
I was only pretending
because my love for him was so strong!
I was scared of its intensity.
I feel humiliated!
I went to see him, and he...
I don't want to live anymore.
If I only knew,
then I wouldn't have...
I thought you two...
Chu Jia-Ning.
You...
You two...
Dad, do you need any help?
Call your sisters to dinner.
Dad...
Go.
Can't they stop for once?
It's so annoying.
We communicate by eating.
So what's wrong with singing karaoke?
I have an announcement to make.
I know it sounds incredible,
but a lot of times things
happen this way.
Which class did you fail?
I met a boy... a man...
we're in love.
We plan to live together.
His family has a huge apartment,
and his parents will like me.
So I plan on moving in with them.
But the main reason is...
I'm having his baby!
Bye, Dad!
That Jia-Ning!
I'm still in a state of shock.
Do you think Dad's okay?
Where'd he go?
He's probably
chatting with Mrs. Liang.
Take off to Amsterdam.
Just do what you have to do.
Sis, do you ever think about
what might have been
if you had stayed with...
What's his name again?
Li Kai.
Had you left to the U.S.
with Li Kai after graduation,
What things might have been like?
Why are you asking?
Your life could've been different.
What's wrong with my life now?
Do you want to be stuck here forever?
What if I told you I saw...
That's enough.
This is my home, and it's fine.
This is my home, and it's fine,
but it isn't everything!
But it's Dad's everything...
I know him far better than you do!
Jia-Chien.
Why is it that you feel that
