- Yes, boss!

How do you know the hick?

How are we

going to find Don?

Eat first! Eat!

Don't worry! We'll find him!

Around here, everybody knows him!

Eat up!

Muay, come with me tomorrow!

We may have a way

to make some cash!

I have an exam tomorrow!

An exam?

You never go to college!

Are you screwing the teacher?

Come again?

Just kidding, a little joke!

You're a good student! Eat!

Thanks for agreeing to help me.

- Forget it!

- Your dad will be glad!

You owe me

three months' rent! Well?

Give me another three days, okay?

I'll have your money then!

You always say that!

I want it today or you're out!

- Take this ring instead!

- Okay, then!

You have another week to pay up!

If you don't,

you clear out of my apartment!

I want you to come home with Ting.

Don't worry about the money...

or about getting ordained.

Just come and visit now and again.

I'm thinking of you.

It's not as good as with your ex?

F*** it!

Don!

I won't push

your drugs anymore!

Why not?

I want to kick it!

You want to kick it?

You want to clean up?

Come here!

Think you can quit

just like that?

If you think you can, go ahead!

Go right ahead!

Who's that?

Ngek! Ngek!

Ngek! Ngek!

- Where's Ong- Bak?

- I don't know.

- You took it!

- I said I don't know!

Ting!

Ngek!

Get that guy!

Call an ambulance now!

Room 212, someone's dying!

Ting, come on! Get in.

Son of a b*tch!

Ting!

Brake!

Make sure you check

everything's okay.

Above all!

Don't let anyone

you don't know in!

The f***er never gives up!

Get in!

The police and the

National Heritage Department...

have recovered

many stolen antiques!

Hidden at this

Chao Praya fish farm.

The horde is said

to be priceless...

because each piece

is a national treasure.

Because each piece

is a national treasure.

The National Heritage

Department...

is making a catalog

for protective conservation.

We will report any developments

to this story.

I told you

to stay out of trouble!

I didn't start it!

They were looking for Ong-Bak!

What is Ong-Bak?

The Buddha's head

I brought you!

Dumbfuck!

You want to ruin me?

I lose a bet for 10 million!

And now you screw up my business

with some Buddha's head!

Don't be so sad!

Everyone has to die some day!

I'll be here for you!

What the-

Where are you taking us?

You don't know!

Who you're messing with!

I know nothing about it!

It's between Ting and Don!

Honest! I don't know anything!

I know you're looking

for this head!

You're very persistent!

If you want

I have a game we can play!

I saw Ong-Bak

with my own eyes!

Just one rope fistfight

and he'll give him back!

And he'll release Muay!

What do you say?

I'll do anything you ask!

To take Ong-Bak home

to our village!

Even if it costs me my life!

BOXI NG HALL THAl-BURMESE BORDER

Why hold this fight

on the border?

Just a change of scenery!

I wanted a rope fistfight!

Out here, if anyone dies,

it won't be a problem!

You hate the country boy

so much, you want him dead?

If you're feeling lucky,

name the stakes!

You sound like a loser!

And now for the main event.

-

- In the east corner, Ting the Pradu Legend.

Ting is an up and coming fighter,

one to watch.

In the west corner,

a Burmese boxer, Saming Sibtid...

out to prove

his country's worth.

The stage is set. Bring it on guys!

For Saming Sibtid,

this is his first bout...

after a long absence.

He may be rusty.

Saming fixes Ting

with a stare.

Ting kicks with the left.

Then right, then left again.

Misses with a roundhouse.

It's gonna be a tight fight.

You wanna die, kid?

If you want Ong-Bak,

come with me!

Your reward...

for getting country boy

to throw the fight!

Hey, a little respect!

I don't revere

lumps of stone like you do!

I have no respect for religion.

I revere only myself.

Revere me also! I am God!

I decide if you live or die!

Bastard!

You wanted Ting to lose

and he threw the fight!

Now hand over Ong-Bak!

Motherf***er!

That hunk of rock

cost my business 100 million!

Don't think I'll ever

give it back to him!

Remember, I am God!

Dispose of them

and meet me at the cave!

Do it quietly!

I told you to be discreet!

You'll have the cops after us!

Hey! Get them!

Where's Ong-Bak?

Let me come!

No!

I won't let anyone

die for Ong-Bak!

If someone must,

it will be me!

Ting! Ting!

Let me help you!

I never wanted it

to turn out this way!

Forgive me!

Let me do something for Nong Pradu!

Let me start the bike

for you at least!

I'm Humlae

of Nong Pradu village!

Don said that

around the other side of the mountain...

there's a cave.

You never give up, do you?

If you put your life on the line

for this tiny head!

What about this one?

Humlae, are you okay?

Go and rescue Ong-Bak! Hurry!

Don't worry about me!

Hurry!

Be careful!

Last time, he threw the fight!

We're almost through, boss!

Good! Hoist it up!

You want it?

What if I smash it to pieces?

Humlae!

Humlae, are you okay?

Get hold of Ong-Bak!

And take him home!

George!

Can you hear me?

- Humlae!

- Muay...

study hard!

And find a good job!

Ting!

Tell my father...

I'm sorry,

I won't be ordained!

Why do you say that?

We'll get you to a hospital!

- You'll be okay!

- Humlae!

George! You can't die!

You promised to take care of me!

You can't die!

Were you lying? Don't do this!

Wake up now! I have nobody else!

You promised!
