That Girl in Pinafore

---

Who farted? It stinks!

Wow, intense!

Sorry, it was me.

Caogen! You again?

Hey, it's only human to fart.

But I'll stay away if I did!

Gosh it stinks!

Hey take it easy man!

Hey Jiaming is here.

Yay supper is here!

What are the goodies?

We've been waiting the whole day.

I almost missed the last bus.

Why is your bag so at"!

Aren't you planning to study?

I'm just here to hang out.

I'll leave the rest to destiny.

Bro, you've repeated 2 years of studies.

One extra year of elementary

school and high school.

You're like an uncle to us.

Do I look that old?

Yes.

Older than me.

Since I suck at studying, I

might as well start working.

Anyway, my family's business needs help.

Speaking of which, didn't

you guys offer to help?

Honestly, your parents' music

lounge is pretty embarrassing.

I don't care, if you guys are my bros

You guys will learn these songs.

And, these pamphlets.

Man, you should pay us for this!

Will we be paid commission?

Haoban, why are you so calculative?

You still owe us our

share for the last time.

That was quite a big sum.

When have I ever missed a payment?

I just forgot to bring the cash today.

I think we should quit when we

graduate to JC (Junior College).

Our business is now at its peak.

We're pushing our luck.

Actually, business will

be even better in JC.

There are tons of rich kids.

We raise our prices and

aim for their wallets.

And we should do our version of 'Playgirl'

And get Xiaopang to be the coverboy.

Shut up!

Those two girls are bitchy!

I think they want our attention.

Hey they are from Saint

Nicholas, my favourite!

Hey Haoban, you always talk big.

Why don't you get their numbers?

You don't think I got the balls for it?

You've got the balls, but

have you got the skills?

Ok! If I can get their numbers

We'll take your pay for next month.

It's a deal!

Lend me your discman.

What are you up to"!

Just hand it over.

It's a birthday present from my mom.

My discman!

Are you alright?

How can you trash your drinks like that"!

Oh please!

You are the one who is blind.

Don't blame us.

My discman!

The player is broken!

What are you going to do about it"!

We can say 'sorry'.

My poor mother worked so hard

So she can buy this

discman for my birthday.

We've apologized. What more do you want?

I need you to compensate me.

$300

300 bucks? You're insane!

Do we look rich to you?

Give me your address and telephone number

I'll collect the money

after you've saved up.

'Small white face' (gigolo),

don't take us as idiots.

What are you going to do

with our address? Stalk us?

You think I'm that free?

Forget the address then.

Just give me your telephone number.

Where do I write it"!

Here.

What are your names?

My name is Hay-

Our last name is Zhang.

I am younger, people call me

Zhang Qing Fang (90s Singer).

I am the elder sister, Zhang Man

Yu (HK actress Maggie Cheung).

Zhang Qing Fang, Zhang Man Yu.

I'll call you when I'm free.

Please call us late at night.

After midnight, the later the better.

Stop it! Stop it!

What are you doing?! Group orgy??

Which school are you from?

I'm sorry.

Come back! I'm going to report you!

We are from Maris Stella!

You can only see things

clearly with your heart

What is essential is invisible to the eye.

Hello... Jiaming, help me!

Xiaopang? What's up?

I don't feel well.

Not well? Did you eat something wrong?

Exams tomorrow.

I've had too much chicken

essence & Red bull.

I've overdosed.

Hey hang on, I've got an incoming call.

But I need your help.

Jiaming! Save me!

Haoban? What's happened?

I can't concentrate at all.

Did you drink Redbull?

Not just Redbull

I've also mixed in tons of chicken essence

Can't focus!

Worst part is, I am wide awake now!

These things are potent! What should I do"!

Remember what the teacher suggested?

Change subjects every 30 minutes.

You will focus better.

Okay.

Xiaopang? Are you alright?

I think I'm high... I need help.

Hey sorry. Another incoming call.

Why's everyone calling at this hour"!

Hey Jiaming! It's me, Caogen!

Caogen?

Quick, turn on the radio!

I'm on the dedication program. Quick!

Hello? it's me again!

So who do you want to

dedicate the next song to"!

I want to dedicate the

next song to my friends.

They are having exams tomorrow.

So I want to wish them good luck!

Anything else?

I feel like singing the song myself.

Ok, as long as it is not vulgar.

Oh it isn't! It's a patriotic song!

Ok go ahead then.

We live here in Singapore

My father used to live in Hoi Shan Street

(Upper Cross Street)

A Japanese bomber ew over here in 1941

A bomb was dropped right

here on this street

We live here in Singapore

My mother gave birth to me at Tekka

There were plenty of illegal cabs here

So she took a scooter to work

We live here in Singapore

I grew up in Queenstown

Behind the tiny apartment at

ls a tiny little forest

Where I used to play when I was a kid

We live here in Singapore

We used to have nothing

Though what we have here is not much

But we treasure them more than anybody else

We live here in Singapore

My cousin has just returned

from San Francisco

Like a little sparrow carrying a branch

Always returning home where it belongs

A little sparrow carrying a branch

Perched on a branch, peering at Auntie

Auntie is getting married

and ties a buttery knot

Her beautiful hair is lined

with owers on both sides

We live here in Singapore

My elementary school used

to be at Middle Road

And when I didn't work hard in school

I would go to the temple

nearby before the exams

and pray hard at the Buddha's feet

We live here in Singapore

My cousin has just returned

from San Francisco

Like a little sparrow carrying a branch

Always returning home where it belongs

Like a sparrow carrying a branch

Always returning home where it belongs

Though I suck at studying

But like every other student

I still hoped for good results.

So my parents won't be disappointed.

But due to my lousy English

All other subjects suffered as well.

Hubby, we lost money this month again.

Don't worry. We shall prevail!

My parents love music.

My father wanted to be in a band.

My mother wanted to become a singer.

Few months ago,

they dumped all their savings

into 'Meng Chuan' (Dream Boat).

Business was ok for a while.

But as it turns out

People rather listen to themselves sing

Than listen to others.

So the business went from bad to worse.

Ma, Pa, I'm heading to school.

Good luck!

Son!

I am a young patriotic soldier!

I am filled with enthusiasm and passion!

I have an abundance of energy!

Put your trust in me, Singapore!

Prosper!

Son. Stay calm.

I think...

he's still doomed

Jiajun, what are you laughing about?

I don't understand what I am watching.

Hey, aren't you going to wish me good luck?

Score an 'A'.

Elder brother, good luck!

Hope you return with a 'D'!

'D'? You cursing me?

No, 'D' for 'Damn Good'!

Do you smell something?

It's you again!

C'mon guys! I'm stressed.
