00:
44:24,628 -- 00:44:26,107and draw them into a comic.
533
00:
44:27,331 -- 00:44:30,039But my hands aren't up to it.
534
00:
44:30,601 -- 00:44:33,104I pick up a pen to draw you,
and I always end up putting it down.
535
00:
44:34,271 -- 00:44:36,478So I decided to take those memories
and tape them.
536
00:
44:37,007 -- 00:44:39,009I guess this is how
I'll have to remember you.
537
00:
44:40,277 -- 00:44:43,087Do you remember that basketball court
surrounded by a chain-link fence?
538
00:
44:44,048 -- 00:44:47,325I used to sit on the bench by the tree
539
00:
44:48,018 -- 00:44:49,258and hold a book over my face,
pretending to read,
540
00:
44:50,054 -- 00:44:53,365and I'd watch you,
running and jumping on the court.
541
00:
44:55,192 -- 00:44:56,262542
00:
44:56,660 -- 00:44:59,641in the classroom while you gave yourself
headaches over math problems
543
00:
45:00,230 -- 00:45:02,210While I was at dance practice, I used to
544
00:
45:02,399 -- 00:45:04,436songs on your guitar over and over,
545
00:
45:05,135 -- 00:45:07,308and then I'd sneak a bottle of water
with a smiley face on it
546
00:
45:07,538 -- 00:45:08,983into your guitar case.
547
00:
45:12,209 -- 00:45:13,313I'm sure you never realized
548
00:
45:14,078 -- 00:45:16,319that when you couldn't find your bike keys,
549
00:
45:17,147 -- 00:45:19,423I was watching you, laughing.
550
00:
45:20,384 -- 00:45:23,365It was so cute how frantic you used to get.
551
00:
45:30,461 -- 00:45:31,531His name was Gong Ning.
552
00:
45:31,795 -- 00:45:33,103He went to high school with my daughter.
553
00:
45:35,165 -- 00:45:35,700What do you want from me?
554
00:
45:37,334 -- 00:45:40,110I've been watching a lot of bands.
555
00:
45:40,504 -- 00:45:42,643In terms of age and personality,
you're a lot like him.
556
00:
45:43,540 -- 00:45:46,043Our guitarist, Chunzi.
He calls himself "gregarious".
557
00:
45:46,276 -- 00:45:47,084I'm very pleased to meet you, ma'am.
558
00:
45:50,380 -- 00:45:51,017Guqi, our keyboardist.
559
00:
45:51,348 -- 00:45:53,294560
00:
45:53,650 -- 00:45:54,720We call her "Nick Funry".
561
00:
45:55,419 -- 00:45:58,593Liang Liang, our bassist.
He calls himself "second-generation rich."
562
00:
45:59,056 -- 00:45:59,693I am in spirit.
563
00:
46:01,492 -- 00:46:02,334Meng Dong, our drummer.
564
00:
46:02,726 -- 00:46:03,761I already knew that.
565
00:
46:04,795 -- 00:46:07,708You throw the drumsticks off the stage
after every show.
566
00:
46:08,098 -- 00:46:09,805Off the stage after ever show.
567
00:
46:10,834 -- 00:46:12,575Which is why we call him
the Groupie Magnet.
568
00:
46:13,070 -- 00:46:14,640Don't listen to them.
569
00:
46:15,105 -- 00:46:16,311I just like to make new friends.
570
00:
46:20,477 -- 00:46:21,512My girlfriend, Peng Wei.
571
00:
46:22,679 -- 00:46:23,419572
00:
46:29,686 -- 00:46:30,494That's my dad.
573
00:
46:31,488 -- 00:46:34,367No I'm not. But the job's open.
574
00:
46:38,829 -- 00:46:43,539In... the future, I'd like you all to
call him Gong Ning around my daughter.
575
00:
46:46,203 -- 00:46:47,079Thank you, everyone.
576
00:
46:55,746 -- 00:46:56,850So what do you want me to do, exactly?
577
00:
46:58,115 -- 00:47:00,652Make my daughter fall in love
with Gong Ning.
578
00:
47:03,887 -- 00:47:04,797Are you Song Shiqiao?
579
00:
47:06,690 -- 00:47:07,395I'm Gong Ning
580
00:
47:08,392 -- 00:47:09,871No matter how close we are, we're not twins.
581
00:
47:10,360 -- 00:47:11,532How could she not be able
to tell the difference?
582
00:
47:12,162 -- 00:47:13,197Unless there's something wrong
with her head?
583
00:
47:16,733 -- 00:47:17,711You've changed a lot.
584
00:
47:18,635 -- 00:47:19,807I didn't recognize you at all.
585
00:
47:20,470 -- 00:47:23,212She's perfectly intelligent,
she just has some problems with her memory.
586
00:
47:23,874 -- 00:47:25,148It's bad enough that you brought it,
587
00:
47:25,442 -- 00:47:27,479but why did you
let the chicken out of the bag?
588
00:
47:28,278 -- 00:47:29,450My park is full of kids!
589
00:
47:30,214 -- 00:47:31,124iGuess who pays if someone gets hurt'?!/i
590
00:
47:31,415 -- 00:47:32,120Is she still looking?
591
00:
47:32,883 -- 00:47:33,554Don't turn around.
592
00:
47:34,585 -- 00:47:35,290Yeah.
593
00:
47:37,821 -- 00:47:41,428My daughter has a genetic disorder.
She takes pills.
594
00:
47:42,426 -- 00:47:44,667significant memory loss.
595
00:
47:44,862 -- 00:47:48,639Mom, is this medicine making me stupid?
596
00:
47:49,633 -- 00:47:50,543Why would it'?
597
00:
47:51,468 -- 00:47:52,378So he was in a band?
598
00:
47:52,903 -- 00:47:54,644And he was a really good guitar player.
599
00:
47:55,405 -- 00:47:57,442Our music teacher
couldn't shut up about him.
600
00:
47:58,208 -- 00:48:00,688If he were still alive,
601
00:
48:01,612 -- 00:48:02,352He's dead?
602
00:
48:03,380 -- 00:48:03,881Car accident.
603
00:
48:06,250 -- 00:48:07,388But my daughter doesn't know.
604
00:
48:07,718 -- 00:48:10,198The school thought the news would
affect the other students,
605
00:
48:10,387 -- 00:48:12,264so they told his classmates
he transferred to another school.
606
00:
48:12,489 -- 00:48:13,695But we all know the real reason
607
00:
48:14,191 -- 00:48:15,192why he left.
608
00:
48:17,461 -- 00:48:18,303And what's that?
609
00:
48:19,396 -- 00:48:20,875He beat up the principal's son,
610
00:
48:21,298 -- 00:48:23,209so they had him expelled,
and then lied about it.
611
00:
48:23,867 -- 00:48:25,813Hey, hey! Get back here!
612
00:
48:26,436 -- 00:48:28,211All you ever do is cause me problems!
613
00:
48:29,506 -- 00:48:31,952I told you to stay in the bag, remember?
614
00:
48:32,509 -- 00:48:34,182So how'd you pull it off?
615
00:
48:34,411 -- 00:48:35,890I listened to all her tapes,
616
00:
48:36,313 -- 00:48:37,690and I remembered that story
about the hiccups.
617
00:
48:38,282 -- 00:48:39,226Anxiety-induced diaphragm
618
00:
48:39,416 -- 00:48:41,760hiccups caused by a nervous
or excited state.
619
00:
48:46,723 -- 00:48:49,533Hey, can you not with the silent treatment?
Lighten up, alright?
620
00:
48:49,793 -- 00:48:52,535So what,
you're proud of lying to a girl for money?
621
00:
48:55,365 -- 00:48:57,641She has more than 300 tapes like this.
622
00:
48:57,901 -- 00:48:59,972You know, erotic psychosis,
in this day and age, that's something.
623
00:
49:00,470 -- 00:49:01,881I'll pay back the money you spent on me.
624
00:
49:02,506 -- 00:49:03,382I can't do this.
625
00:
49:04,007 -- 00:49:05,680How much do you make for a show?
626
00:
49:06,476 -- 00:49:07,454Could you pay me back?
