0:07:12.532,0:07:15.592
Jesus, oh!

0:07:18.104,0:07:19.935
Oh God

0:07:22.408,0:07:24.933
No Metal in the microwave

0:07:25.478,0:07:26.638
No metal!

0:09:44.684,0:09:46.208
Martha, it's Robert

0:09:46.619,0:09:48.177
Just to let you know[br]to keep an eye peeled

0:09:48.220,0:09:52.316
for the first reviews of[br]your breathlessly awaited first novel

0:09:52.592,0:09:55.618
Word is, the Times is going to rave...

0:09:56.128,0:09:56.890
Talk later

0:11:51.877,0:11:53.037
Thanks

0:12:02.154,0:12:03.121
You look like shit

0:12:03.689,0:12:04.781
Where's Grandpa?

0:12:06.425,0:12:08.416
He's so cute with the headphones on

0:12:08.761,0:12:12.094
Hi Grandpa!

0:12:13.699,0:12:15.758
Do you think he remembers me?

0:12:16.802,0:12:18.736
Come on, it's a steal[br]You've got to see it

0:12:18.771,0:12:19.965
You'll have your own room to write in

0:12:20.005,0:12:23.338
Grandpa can be out in the back chopping[br]bricks or whatever he does out there

0:12:23.375,0:12:24.774
You'd never even know he existed

0:12:24.810,0:12:25.742
l wish he didn't

0:12:25.845,0:12:27.745
God, he's really getting you down

0:12:28.147,0:12:30.012
From the way Alex has acted[br]for the last 7 years

0:12:30.049,0:12:31.482
you'd have thought[br]he didn't have a father

0:12:31.517,0:12:33.849
And then boom, a month ago[br]this showed up on the doorstep

0:12:34.120,0:12:35.314
l haven't written a word since

0:12:35.721,0:12:37.518
Well, Alex has got[br]to get him out of here

0:12:37.890,0:12:39.357
lt's not that simple with Alex

0:12:39.391,0:12:41.416
and frankly we can't afford[br]to buy another place

0:12:41.727,0:12:43.126
let alone a mansion

0:12:43.295,0:12:44.421
Of course you can

0:12:44.463,0:12:46.397
especially if your mother's offer[br]is still good

0:12:46.899,0:12:48.833
Alex will never accept money from her[br]you know that

0:12:49.168,0:12:50.226
Work on Him!

0:12:50.269,0:12:53.033
For God sakes, Martha[br]you have a lot to learn about men

0:12:53.072,0:12:55.006
And you have a lot to learn[br]about husbands

0:12:56.776,0:12:57.367
Sorry

0:12:57.843,0:13:00.334
lt's okay. l'm getting a dog

0:14:13.886,0:14:14.875
Hi Alex!

0:14:17.323,0:14:18.881
Smells good Good Jimmy

0:14:19.825,0:14:21.292
Grandpa, l'm home

0:14:21.360,0:14:22.588
How's my boy!

0:14:25.197,0:14:26.221
What's that?

0:14:26.465,0:14:28.126
lt's a book l made for you

0:14:28.934,0:14:30.367
Animals that change

0:14:32.304,0:14:32.963
One day

0:14:33.005,0:14:35.633
l saw the most weird thing

0:14:36.075,0:14:39.567
lt was a turtle, a fish and a rat

0:14:40.846,0:14:43.644
They were in a puddle of potion

0:14:44.884,0:14:46.010
They grew

0:14:47.887,0:14:50.913
They destroy the universe. The end

0:14:54.860,0:14:56.487
Jeremy gets some ideas

0:14:57.296,0:14:59.355
Come on. Let's clean up for dinner

0:15:02.601,0:15:05.661
Dad, you shouldn't eat so much fat[br]at your age

0:15:07.606,0:15:08.971
How are you today?

0:15:09.008,0:15:10.305
Did you watch those tapes[br]l rented for you?

0:15:10.342,0:15:10.899
Terrible!

0:15:11.911,0:15:13.105
l'll get you some Taiwanese tapes

0:15:13.312,0:15:14.404
They'll be just as bad

0:15:15.214,0:15:16.909
Well, what about[br]some Hong Kong kung-fu movies?

0:15:16.949,0:15:17.938
The worst!

0:15:17.983,0:15:20.110
Their kung-fu's a joke

0:15:21.120,0:15:22.382
Dad! They're only acting

0:15:22.421,0:15:24.548
You're a Tai Chi professor[br]They can't compare

0:15:25.691,0:15:28.057
Damn, l can't learn English

0:15:28.961,0:15:30.986
lt's a disgrace to go back

0:15:31.997,0:15:33.021
My life is going nowhere

0:15:34.700,0:15:35.325
Dad

0:15:36.068,0:15:37.899
it hasn't even been a month[br]since you retired and came to America

0:15:39.004,0:15:40.130
Give yourself some time

0:15:49.548,0:15:52.540
Jeremy come here[br]come here you little rascal

0:15:53.052,0:15:53.950
Come here

0:15:56.689,0:15:58.589
Come here, Jeremy. Get off the couch

0:15:59.925,0:16:01.984
l don't have time for this, come here

0:16:04.997,0:16:06.328
Whoa!

0:16:06.365,0:16:08.731
My precious young man[br]running bare naked!

0:16:10.269,0:16:12.100
Let me see!

0:16:12.137,0:16:13.604
The future of the Chu family[br]is depending on your little treasure

0:16:13.639,0:16:15.038
What does he think he's doing?

0:16:15.074,0:16:15.665
That's all right

0:16:15.708,0:16:17.972
Chinese elders must always[br]reassure themselves

0:16:18.010,0:16:19.375
that their family name will go on

0:16:20.446,0:16:22.414
Come on Jeremy, upstairs with you!

0:16:25.017,0:16:26.006
She's afraid he'll catch cold

0:16:26.518,0:16:28.042
Kids aren't made out of paper

0:16:47.573,0:16:48.335
Thanks

0:16:52.678,0:16:53.303
Thanks

0:16:55.981,0:16:57.346
No, thanks

0:16:59.251,0:17:02.277
Why does this American woman[br]only eat vegetables?

0:17:03.455,0:17:04.479
She's afraid of getting fat

0:17:04.990,0:17:06.013
Why am l not fat?

0:17:07.126,0:17:09.060
On this Earth[br]there are two kinds of food

0:17:09.094,0:17:13.087
Cereal and vegetables are 'yin'

0:17:13.365,0:17:16.664
and meat is 'yang'

0:17:17.202,0:17:19.329
You must eat both to be balanced

0:17:19.371,0:17:21.396
and to be healthy

0:17:21.440,0:17:23.203
Alex, Linda came over today

0:17:23.242,0:17:24.038
Great

0:17:24.576,0:17:25.599
What's that supposed to mean?

0:17:25.644,0:17:27.042
Just great

0:17:27.780,0:17:29.645
What exactly do you have[br]against her anyway?

0:17:30.049,0:17:32.108
So what if she was a Maoist in college?

0:17:32.151,0:17:34.984
From Maoist revolutionary[br]to real estate baron

0:17:35.020,0:17:37.250
lf there's one thing worse[br]than a communist

0:17:37.289,0:17:39.723
it's an ex-communist[br]who has become a capitalist

0:17:40.092,0:17:42.060
Well, she's ready to do us[br]quite a big favor

0:17:42.094,0:17:45.086
Oh no. She's trying to sell us[br]a house again

0:17:45.130,0:17:47.325
What's she mumbling about? Nothing

0:17:47.699,0:17:49.098
Something about cigarette butts?

0:17:49.601,0:17:50.158
What?

0:17:50.736,0:17:52.670
Mommy said she wants to move out

0:17:52.704,0:17:53.295
Quiet!

0:17:54.540,0:17:55.802
Alex, l'm talking to you

0:17:55.841,0:17:57.536
Mommy, can l watch cartoons?

0:17:58.143,0:17:59.132
Here

0:17:59.511,0:18:00.637
put some meat on your bones!

0:18:01.180,0:18:02.204
l don't want it, thank you

0:18:02.281,0:18:04.146
Jeremy, finish your milk[br]and you can watch TV

0:18:05.084,0:18:05.573
What did she say?

0:18:06.785,0:18:08.343
lf he finishes his milk, he can watch TV

0:18:21.233,0:18:22.700
American people teach children

0:18:22.734,0:18:25.601
everything's a deal, like doing business

0:18:25.637,0:18:27.127
You should at least[br]take a look at the photos

0:18:27.172,0:18:30.198
lt's apparently a real steal[br]lf children can't concentrate on eating

0:18:30.242,0:18:32.233
what else can they concentrate on?

0:18:32.277,0:18:33.266
Yes, father

0:18:33.779,0:18:35.337
And, these American cartoons

0:18:35.380,0:18:37.644
are only adding weirdness and violence

0:18:37.683,0:18:39.548
to this messed up world

0:18:39.685,0:18:43.086
for children? lt's just a mess

0:18:43.122,0:18:47.422
Our sages said... Dad, eat!

0:18:53.198,0:18:55.189
Don't get upset. l'm just afraid[br]your dinner's getting cold

0:18:56.101,0:18:57.432
What has he been babbling about?

0:18:57.469,0:18:59.403
The violence in cartoons

0:18:59.905,0:19:02.066
How can he complain[br]he's martial arts expert himself

0:19:02.107,0:19:03.199
lsn't that violent enough?

0:19:03.442,0:19:04.431
Would you cut it out? Both of you!

0:19:04.810,0:19:09.213
Just eat

0:19:24.396,0:19:27.194
You finish up. l'm going out for a smoke

0:20:14.446,0:20:17.711
ln America, you're so polite to kids[br]You think so?

0:20:18.317,0:20:21.878
You don't treat kids as kids

0:20:23.488,0:20:25.217
lt's not so simple

0:20:25.257,0:20:26.485
lt's called democracy

0:20:26.525,0:20:28.686
No big and no little

0:20:28.794,0:20:31.763
l see, you understand America[br]better than me

0:20:35.734,0:20:36.632
Chinese Time

0:20:43.308,0:20:44.866
Jeremy, stop playing

0:20:46.345,0:20:47.369
Come on, time for homework

0:21:03.228,0:21:04.195
Alex

0:21:04.229,0:21:06.424
The teachers' Putonghua is poor

0:21:06.465,0:21:08.399
ls his Chinese school any good?

0:21:09.268,0:21:11.532
Don't be too picky!

0:21:11.937,0:21:13.734
We only have one Chinese school[br]around here

0:21:13.772,0:21:15.706
Every weekend[br]Jeremy learns some Chinese

0:21:15.741,0:21:16.833
l can play basketball

0:21:16.875,0:21:18.206
and you get to teach Tai Chi

0:21:18.243,0:21:19.801
Thanks God for it!

0:21:20.312,0:21:22.507
Let's follow what they teach

0:21:22.547,0:21:24.242
Eh! Not like that

0:21:27.386,0:21:29.581
Dad, l've got some things[br]to take care of

0:21:31.290,0:21:32.951
Jeremy, come on

0:21:32.991,0:21:35.585
Grandpa will teach you[br]an old Chinese rhyme

0:21:35.627,0:21:38.289
On East West Street, North South Go

0:21:38.330,0:21:40.594
Outside the gate, a man bites a dog!

0:21:40.632,0:21:42.657
Grab the dog to hit a brick

0:21:42.701,0:21:44.669
Watch out[br]that brick might bite the hand

0:21:44.703,0:21:46.364
Follow Grandpa

0:21:46.405,0:21:48.498
On East West Street

0:21:48.540,0:21:50.337
North South Go

0:21:50.375,0:21:52.343
Outside the gate a man bites a dog

0:21:52.377,0:21:55.005
Outside the gate a dog bites a man

0:21:55.347,0:21:57.941
a man bites a dog!

0:22:00.018,0:22:00.985
a man bites a dog!

0:22:25.377,0:22:26.366
Shit

0:23:07.119,0:23:08.518
Just one more sentence

0:23:16.962,0:23:17.690
Okay

0:23:26.171,0:23:27.695
How's your computer virus?

0:23:28.373,0:23:29.465
Almost killed

0:23:33.945,0:23:36.436
and when can l start reading[br]your new book?

0:23:38.417,0:23:40.146
There is no new book, can't you tell?

0:23:40.886,0:23:43.013
Shit Alex, are as out of it[br]as your father?

0:23:47.692,0:23:48.784
You don't know my father

0:23:50.695,0:23:53.163
l have spent every single day

0:23:53.198,0:23:56.690
in the same room with that man[br]since he showed up here a month ago

0:23:58.870,0:24:00.497
Alex, it's impossible

0:24:01.473,0:24:02.906
He's taken over my work room

0:24:04.209,0:24:05.904
l just don't have the space to think

0:24:05.944,0:24:07.912
Not enough space?

0:24:09.147,0:24:12.082
ln China, this house is big enough[br]for four families

0:24:12.117,0:24:15.450
Sure, but they'd speak the same language[br]so they could talk to each other

0:24:15.487,0:24:18.047
Alex he hasn't learned[br]one word of English

0:24:18.156,0:24:19.521
And what about you?

0:24:20.025,0:24:23.483
What have you done but make fun of him[br]treating him with disrespect?

0:24:23.528,0:24:24.756
Alex, l tried

0:24:25.063,0:24:27.122
l'm his only son[br]What do you want me to do?

0:24:27.699,0:24:31.533
You could at least consider moving[br]into a bigger place. We can afford it

0:24:31.570,0:24:32.161
No

0:24:32.771,0:24:34.932
l don't see[br]why we have to pay for his insurance

0:24:34.973,0:24:36.907
let him eat us out of house and home

0:24:36.942,0:24:39.069
when we can't accept a little loan[br]from my mother

0:24:39.110,0:24:42.841
lt's not a little loan, it's a bride[br]a big bride and you know it

0:24:53.258,0:24:55.488
You look a little freaked out here

0:25:02.167,0:25:04.533
Come on, let's go to bed

0:25:17.582,0:25:18.708
Good night Alex

0:25:56.254,0:25:58.313
Honestly Linda[br]l don't know why we're here

0:25:58.857,0:26:00.848

0:27:43.361,0:27:45.659
Please, we're all friends here

0:27:45.697,0:27:46.925
Don't call me master

0:27:47.298,0:27:51.325
Mr. Chu, l don't know[br]what our headmaster's thinking

0:27:51.703,0:27:55.662
my class is making dumplings, half-done

0:27:55.707,0:27:57.868
Some workmen just came in[br]to do some repairs

0:27:57.909,0:27:59.672
we have to leave

0:27:59.711,0:28:01.679
l see you have plenty of space here

0:28:01.713,0:28:03.374
could we move in

0:28:03.415,0:28:04.279
just this once?

0:28:04.816,0:28:06.647
Dumplings can be moved in

0:28:06.685,0:28:08.676
but they can't be moved out

0:28:08.987,0:28:10.818
We've also got scallion pancakes[br]and spring rolls!

0:28:13.725,0:28:15.454
Come on, let's help!

0:28:16.161,0:28:17.025
Thank you

0:28:17.362,0:28:19.990
Sink your chest

0:28:20.031,0:28:21.259
Stretch your back

0:28:21.299,0:28:23.699
lmagine a string pulling up your head

0:28:23.735,0:28:26.203
Sink lower your body

0:28:28.239,0:28:29.228
Master Chu

0:28:29.708,0:28:31.232
don't torture the child!

0:28:31.276,0:28:32.709
Look at all his weight

0:28:32.744,0:28:33.904
How can he 'sink his chest'?

0:28:34.345,0:28:35.972
Let him help me knead the dough

0:28:37.749,0:28:39.444
Oh, it's so difficult

0:28:39.484,0:28:42.453
Mrs. Chen, next week[br]l'll help you make dumplings

0:28:42.821,0:28:43.753
Can l enroll?

0:28:44.189,0:28:45.713
Next week, no dumplings

0:28:45.757,0:28:46.951
but General Tso's Special Chicken

0:30:00.832,0:30:03.062
Master Chu, would you please demonstrate

0:30:03.101,0:30:04.466
how to emit force with Pushing Hands?

0:30:04.803,0:30:06.771
Okay, let's try Thank you

0:30:21.953,0:30:23.853
My God, would that hurt?

0:30:43.274,0:30:46.107
Hey, Mr. Chu, try me

0:30:46.144,0:30:47.406
You're too heavy

0:30:47.445,0:30:50.812
So your kung-fu can only go so far!

0:30:51.216,0:30:51.807
Okay

0:30:52.517,0:30:56.954
Mr. Chu, can you take the fighting away?

0:30:57.422,0:30:58.389
Don't you see these burners

0:30:58.423,0:30:59.981
and the boiling water!

0:31:00.024,0:31:01.514
lt's alright if Heavyweight gets burned[br]but the dumplings!

0:31:01.559,0:31:03.186
lf you smash them[br]what're we going to eat?

0:31:03.561,0:31:04.459
We'll eat roast pigging!

0:31:05.897,0:31:07.228
Oh, okay!

0:31:14.906,0:31:17.602
Far enough? l'm ready Master!

0:31:38.463,0:31:40.488
What! Haven't you any eyes to see!

0:31:42.200,0:31:43.861
Sorry...!

0:31:43.902,0:31:44.926
l don't mean you!

0:31:45.169,0:31:46.659
lt's your Master who wasn't looking

0:31:46.971,0:31:48.302
of all the directions!

0:31:48.339,0:31:50.364
Why did you throw Heavyweight[br]right smack on the dumplings!

0:31:50.408,0:31:51.875
Excellent aim!

0:31:51.976,0:31:53.967
Okay! No dumplings today!

0:31:54.012,0:31:55.946
lnstead, we'll have sandy crab[br]scalded noodle lump soup!

0:31:56.214,0:31:58.011
l'm sorry

0:31:58.917,0:31:59.906
lt wasn't on purpose!

0:32:01.152,0:32:02.449
lt was on purpose

0:32:02.587,0:32:04.578
Are you okay? lt was on purpose!

0:32:04.989,0:32:05.683
Got mad

0:32:05.990,0:32:08.185
ln front of all these people[br]sooner or later

0:32:08.226,0:32:11.627
l knew you'd show off!

0:32:12.397,0:32:14.024
Sorry...!

0:32:14.966,0:32:16.900
Okay! Don't stand there with a red face!

0:32:16.935,0:32:18.562
Let's clean up!

0:32:18.903,0:32:21.201
Everyone helps!

0:32:21.239,0:32:23.230
No more Tai Chi Chuan![br]We'll make dumplings!

0:32:23.675,0:32:25.438
Come... Did you hear that?

0:32:25.977,0:32:27.535
Master says no more Tai Chi!

0:32:27.578,0:32:30.069
Let's move

0:32:37.121,0:32:39.453
Oh my, what's this shape?

0:32:39.991,0:32:41.117
Hold on. Let me see your hands. Filthy!

0:32:41.159,0:32:43.059
Men, all of you wash your hands

0:32:43.561,0:32:45.324
Use soap! No dirty hands on my dumplings

0:32:45.363,0:32:46.990
ls that clear? Quick...

0:32:48.366,0:32:50.357
Mr. Chu, sit!

0:32:50.401,0:32:51.925
Let the young people stand

0:32:51.970,0:32:52.937
Come and sit

0:32:55.640,0:32:56.902
Not bad

0:32:56.941,0:32:58.932
Thin skin, plump stuffing, nice twist

0:32:59.444,0:33:00.206
lt's nothing

0:33:00.445,0:33:02.913
Northerners like making things[br]from dough

0:33:02.947,0:33:05.279
Are you from Peking? Yes

0:33:05.583,0:33:06.982
How long have you been here?

0:33:07.018,0:33:07.950
Just over a month

0:33:09.120,0:33:10.212
Are you used to it here?

0:33:10.621,0:33:12.248
lf l was[br]would l be here messing around?

0:33:13.291,0:33:15.156
Watch what you're saying, l'm here too

0:33:16.494,0:33:17.518
l don't mean that

0:33:17.595,0:33:20.029
America is a world for young people

0:33:20.665,0:33:21.996
Are you also from Peking?

0:33:22.033,0:33:23.159
Do l seem like l am?

0:33:24.102,0:33:26.161
By your accent, yes;[br]the way you look, no

0:33:26.437,0:33:27.096
That's right

0:33:27.772,0:33:30.570
1949, l went with my husband to Taiwan[br]to escape the Communists

0:33:31.976,0:33:33.568
And Mr. Chen is... He's dead

0:33:35.046,0:33:35.978
His name wasn't Chen

0:33:36.981,0:33:39.472
Not long after we arrived in Taiwan[br]he got liver cancer and passed away

0:33:40.084,0:33:41.517
l'm called Mrs. Chen

0:33:41.552,0:33:43.110
because of my second husband

0:33:44.255,0:33:45.119
Oh

0:33:46.090,0:33:46.988
and Mr. Chen?

0:33:47.025,0:33:49.118
He's dead too, just last year

0:33:50.194,0:33:53.095
Life and death, it's fate

0:33:53.131,0:33:55.599
Riches and rags are given by the gods[br]You just accept it. Everything is destiny

0:33:56.134,0:33:57.123
Sure...

0:33:58.302,0:34:01.237
Earlier this year, l left Taiwan[br]came to live with my daughter

0:34:01.272,0:34:05.003
Every Saturday, l bring my granddaughter[br]here to study Chinese

0:34:05.676,0:34:07.541
Are you used to it here?

0:34:07.578,0:34:08.636
How did you put it just now?

0:34:09.380,0:34:11.473
lf l wasn't so bored at home

0:34:11.516,0:34:14.041
how could your Heavyweight[br]have smashed my dumplings?

0:34:14.118,0:34:15.779
A computer couldn't have aimed[br]more accurately

0:34:16.454,0:34:18.353
Destiny, it's all destiny

0:34:18.389,0:34:19.219
That's right!

0:34:28.065,0:34:28.828
What kung-fu!

0:34:29.699,0:34:30.462
What's the matter?

0:34:32.103,0:34:34.333
Since last year[br]sometimes my right arm just gives out

0:34:35.139,0:34:37.630
when l pick up something a little heavy

0:34:37.675,0:34:38.641
lt's helpless

0:34:39.043,0:34:40.806
Have you seen a doctor? Yes

0:34:41.411,0:34:43.471
Chinese doctors, western doctors

0:34:44.114,0:34:47.083
accupressure, acupuncture[br]herbal remedies, shots, medicine

0:34:47.752,0:34:50.243
l've tried everything[br]but getting a spell cast on me

0:34:50.855,0:34:52.254
l'm just old

0:34:52.857,0:34:55.223
Mrs. Chen, l don't want to sound[br]like a self-promoter

0:34:55.259,0:34:59.161
but practising Tai Chi will heal your arm

0:34:59.330,0:35:00.695
Okay, spare me!

0:35:00.765,0:35:02.392
Haven't l suffered enough in this life?

0:35:02.633,0:35:04.760
Practise? l won't be that stupid enough

0:35:04.802,0:35:08.670
No, when you practise Tai Chi[br]your circulation and energy will flow

0:35:08.706,0:35:11.072
l've let go, l'm not holding on

0:35:14.445,0:35:16.572
Energy must be released to me

0:35:17.315,0:35:20.148
When its released there's no tension[br]and one feels at ease

0:36:55.546,0:36:56.274
What's up?

0:36:56.314,0:36:57.679
The review, l can't find it

0:37:12.230,0:37:17.258
When you arrive at old age[br]everything is quiet

0:37:18.236,0:37:21.763
There the gentle wind passes through[br]the pine forest

0:37:21.806,0:37:24.240
15 minutes to practice Okay

0:37:24.275,0:37:29.303
When the moon is rising[br]and shining on the mountain

0:37:30.014,0:37:35.543
l only want to go to the familiar forest[br]l reply with a simple fisherman's song

0:37:37.888,0:37:38.616
Alex

0:37:39.657,0:37:40.521
Yes?

0:37:40.558,0:37:42.822
Does New York have a place[br]to mat Chinese calligraphy?

0:37:43.461,0:37:44.257
Who's the present for?

0:37:45.363,0:37:48.264
You know, last week[br]l smashed Mrs. Chen's dumplings

0:37:48.299,0:37:51.268
l was so embarrassed[br]l want to give her this

0:37:51.335,0:37:52.700
l'm just afraid she'll laugh[br]at my calligraphy

0:37:52.837,0:37:54.270
Come on Dad

0:37:54.305,0:37:56.671
we know you're good

0:37:59.043,0:38:00.271
What's the matter?

0:38:00.611,0:38:01.805
They've ignored the book

0:38:01.846,0:38:04.212
Just pretended it doesn't exist

0:38:04.248,0:38:05.442
lt'll be in next week

0:38:05.650,0:38:06.708
What's a matter with her?

0:38:07.752,0:38:08.810
There's no review of her book

0:38:09.253,0:38:13.280
Years from now[br]we'll all be lying peacefully underground

0:38:13.324,0:38:14.951
What's the big deal?

0:38:17.328,0:38:19.762
Dad, when're we going? Coming

0:38:22.700,0:38:23.667
What is it?

0:38:23.701,0:38:26.363
A stomach cramp or something[br]Nothing important

0:38:26.404,0:38:27.962
Do you want to lie down on the couch?

0:38:36.681,0:38:37.443
What's wrong with her?

0:38:37.481,0:38:38.709
A stomach cramp

0:38:39.016,0:38:41.416
Let me take a look. Make her lie down

0:38:42.853,0:38:44.718
Dad said he wants to take a look at it

0:38:45.489,0:38:47.423
He knows this kind of thing[br]He does?

0:38:47.825,0:38:48.792
He's an expert

0:38:57.301,0:38:59.792
She's too tense[br]something's wrong with her stomach

0:39:00.404,0:39:02.770
You're too tight[br]Thanks for letting me know

0:39:03.407,0:39:05.307
Tell her to relax

0:39:06.644,0:39:07.872
Just relax

0:39:31.435,0:39:32.868
What happened? Mom!

0:39:32.903,0:39:35.463
Oh my god! Get away from me! Relax!

0:39:35.506,0:39:36.564
What did you do to her?

0:39:36.607,0:39:38.507
Her stomach's bleeding![br]Quick get her to the hospital!

0:39:40.344,0:39:42.369
l want to go too Jeremy, be good

0:40:03.401,0:40:06.063
You broke Mama

0:40:14.645,0:40:16.738
Jeremy wants a goldfish, right?

0:40:16.781,0:40:18.442
Here's a big tail

0:40:23.921,0:40:26.617
Big eyes and thick lips

0:40:37.134,0:40:38.795
And wings

0:40:56.420,0:40:57.978
What's Martha's condition?

0:40:58.022,0:40:59.455
Her stomach was bleeding[br]She has to stay in the hospital

0:40:59.790,0:41:00.916
How's Mommy?

0:41:01.525,0:41:02.048
Oh

0:41:03.861,0:41:06.022
Mommy is all right[br]She just needs a little rest, okay?

0:41:11.836,0:41:13.428
l didn't do anything to her

0:41:13.471,0:41:15.632
Her tension caused her stomach to bleed

0:41:17.441,0:41:18.465
l know that

0:41:34.859,0:41:37.453
Can l go to the hospital with you?

0:41:51.041,0:41:51.666
Dad

0:41:53.143,0:41:54.667
ls this the calligraphy you want matted?

0:41:56.013,0:41:57.571
Go take care of Martha

0:41:57.615,0:41:58.843
Don't bother about me

0:42:17.635,0:42:20.297
Can l have some macaroni[br]and cheese please?

0:42:22.773,0:42:24.968
Wait until Sunday[br]when your mother comes home, all right?

0:42:54.638,0:42:56.629
Master Chu Hello everybody!

0:42:56.941,0:42:59.307
Master Chu, they tell me[br]your kung-fu is great

0:42:59.343,0:43:01.937
Last week, you barely touched Mr. Sung[br]and you sent him flying

0:43:01.979,0:43:03.947
And you threw Heavyweight[br]right on the dumplings

0:43:05.549,0:43:08.040
Nah, where's Mrs. Chen then?

0:43:08.252,0:43:11.187
l don't know. She's not coming anymore[br]l'm the new teacher

0:43:11.722,0:43:12.654
Not teach? Yes

0:43:12.690,0:43:14.317
Why? l don't know

0:43:14.792,0:43:15.986
You can ask them

0:43:16.894,0:43:19.522
Her family's going to that other school[br]north of here

0:43:19.563,0:43:22.999
lf you want to contact her, you can ask[br]the principal about her telephone number

0:43:24.368,0:43:26.563
Okay, l'll go for my class

0:43:28.205,0:43:31.106
ls this General Tso's Special Chicken?

0:43:31.575,0:43:34.669
No, we aren't making chicken[br]This is to make 'eoly ice'

0:43:35.279,0:43:36.940
'Eoly ice'? Yes

0:43:36.981,0:43:39.745
Oily rice. Oh yes, OlLY RlCE!

0:43:45.189,0:43:48.249
Hey, do you want us to bring the oily[br]rice over so you can throw Heavyweight in?

0:44:16.086,0:44:18.316
Alex, will you make a call for me?

0:44:20.124,0:44:23.389
Mrs. Chen's family[br]doesn't come here anymore

0:44:23.927,0:44:25.326
l still have to

0:44:25.362,0:44:27.762
give her the calligraphy

0:44:34.938,0:44:36.098
No one's home. lt's their machine

0:44:39.209,0:44:41.143
Yici Chen. This is Alex Chu

0:44:41.178,0:44:43.237
My Dad has a present to give your mother

0:44:43.280,0:44:44.611
Give us a call

0:44:44.648,0:44:47.208
at 287-0425. Thanks

0:44:49.186,0:44:51.086
How can you talk like that?

0:44:51.121,0:44:52.315
Like what?

0:44:52.389,0:44:55.051
l'm not going to the hospital[br]with you to see Martha

0:44:55.092,0:44:56.684
Take me home to wait for the call

0:44:56.794,0:44:58.694
Relax Dad, they're not going anywhere

0:44:58.729,0:45:00.321
l can't communicate with Martha

0:45:00.364,0:45:04.130
You'll be there for hours[br]and all l can do is stare into space

0:45:04.668,0:45:05.362
Okay

0:45:06.837,0:45:09.670
Hey mister, don't kid me

0:45:10.074,0:45:11.439
l never kid anybody

0:46:35.425,0:46:37.757
Hello... lt's me

0:46:38.395,0:46:40.863
Mrs. Chen?

0:46:42.499,0:46:45.832
Why weren't you at school?

0:46:47.771,0:46:48.795
Yes...

0:46:49.373,0:46:52.069
Don't listen to my kid. What nonsense!

0:46:52.476,0:46:54.103
lt's not a present

0:46:54.878,0:46:57.506
l'm still embarrassed

0:46:58.015,0:46:59.880
about what l did to your class last week

0:47:04.788,0:47:06.551
Okay. How about this?

0:47:07.825,0:47:11.022
Tomorrow at 1 1 :00, my son's going to get[br]his wife at the hospital

0:47:11.061,0:47:14.792
We'll come by at 10:30

0:47:15.132,0:47:16.997
Okay...

0:47:19.803,0:47:22.271
lt's nothing

0:47:22.306,0:47:23.466
She's a small stomach problem

0:47:27.511,0:47:29.911
Right, then

0:47:31.148,0:47:32.877
see you tomorrow

0:48:02.312,0:48:03.870
Hello, Uncle Chu!

0:48:03.914,0:48:05.609
Not at all, welcome!

0:48:05.916,0:48:07.178
Mother, they come!

0:48:07.517,0:48:08.313
How are you, Yici?

0:48:08.352,0:48:11.048
Hi! Hi, Jeremy Hi, auntie

0:48:11.221,0:48:13.052
Why are you all guarding the door?

0:48:13.090,0:48:14.318
Come in, sit down!

0:48:14.358,0:48:16.952
Sorry, we've got to get to the hospital[br]to pick up my wife

0:48:16.994,0:48:18.052
Oh, you can't be late then

0:48:18.095,0:48:19.323
ls your wife, all right?

0:48:20.597,0:48:21.928
What am l talking about!

0:48:22.032,0:48:23.465
She's getting out of the hospital

0:48:25.168,0:48:26.465
Mr. Chu, how are you?

0:48:27.304,0:48:30.865
Good, Mrs. Chen, at your new school

0:48:30.908,0:48:33.001
is there a cooking class?

0:48:33.210,0:48:35.405
Not until l showed up

0:48:36.013,0:48:37.105
There's a kung-fu class too

0:48:37.581,0:48:38.878
But it's only Karate

0:48:39.316,0:48:41.443
They don't have grace

0:48:41.485,0:48:43.214
Better than Tai Chi Chuan

0:48:43.387,0:48:46.356
they sound much tougher

0:48:46.990,0:48:48.082
but they can't throw anywhere near[br]as far as you!

0:48:49.026,0:48:51.187
Dad, we'd better get going

0:48:51.695,0:48:53.026
l planned for you to stay for lunch

0:48:53.063,0:48:54.087
but you've got to get to the hospital

0:48:54.398,0:48:55.660
l won't keep you

0:48:55.699,0:48:57.064
for dinner

0:48:57.301,0:48:59.895
Next time Thanks and bye

0:49:02.306,0:49:06.003
Uh, you stopped by today to?

0:49:06.510,0:49:09.946
Ah! l forget

0:49:11.048,0:49:12.174
You shouldn't have. Thank you

0:49:12.516,0:49:13.608
l'm going to hang it up right away

0:49:13.650,0:49:15.584
lt's nothing

0:49:16.119,0:49:17.086
Drive carefully!

0:49:17.955,0:49:19.047
Bye

0:49:19.623,0:49:20.248
Good bye!

0:49:20.424,0:49:21.083
Bye!

0:49:24.261,0:49:28.721
What's the rush![br]We didn't even get the scroll open!

0:49:44.081,0:49:44.945
Thanks!

0:50:24.755,0:50:25.653
Toothache?

0:50:36.133,0:50:39.102
There isn't much you can do[br]But you sure have a lot of problems

0:50:47.010,0:50:48.341
Mr. Philips called

0:50:48.378,0:50:51.814
Jeremy received the lowest[br]reading scores in the gifted class again

0:50:52.115,0:50:54.174
That school is too distracting for him

0:50:54.217,0:50:56.378
No Alex, we're too distracting for him

0:50:56.420,0:50:58.354
He's only responding[br]to the situation at home

0:50:58.388,0:50:59.286
Then change it

0:51:09.266,0:51:09.630
What's your problem?

0:51:10.067,0:51:10.726
What's your problem?

0:51:10.767,0:51:11.563
l ain't got any problem

0:51:11.601,0:51:13.091
Get back in the car, Alex!

0:51:13.570,0:51:14.195
Shut up!

0:52:15.799,0:52:17.198
Great

0:52:32.916,0:52:33.507
Martha

0:52:34.217,0:52:36.845
What do you want? l go for a walk

0:52:36.887,0:52:39.515
A walk? l don't know

0:52:39.556,0:52:41.421
l don't want to see you getting lost

0:52:41.558,0:52:42.320
Smoking

0:52:42.359,0:52:43.758
You know, in a way[br]l'm kind of baby sitting you

0:52:43.793,0:52:48.560
l'll just hang around, won't go far[br]Do you understand what l'm saying to you?

0:52:48.598,0:52:50.395
All right. Go ahead

0:52:52.202,0:52:53.134
What do l care?

0:53:05.882,0:53:09.249
Oh Jeremy, where'd you get those?

0:53:09.419,0:53:10.886
Teddy gave them to me

0:53:11.254,0:53:12.778
Well go put them away

0:53:14.558,0:53:16.583
Go on. Go get yourself cleaned up

0:53:19.229,0:53:19.752
Dad

0:53:26.269,0:53:28.203
What're you looking for? Dad

0:53:28.238,0:53:28.761
Where's he?

0:53:28.939,0:53:29.598
Oh

0:53:30.273,0:53:31.535
Where's he?

0:54:16.386,0:54:17.546
ls he back? No

0:55:13.343,0:55:14.776
Did you check with the police?

0:55:39.469,0:55:42.905
Alex, l'm sorry[br]l should've been more careful

0:55:42.939,0:55:45.407
But l'm... uh... with the book

0:55:46.376,0:55:50.574
ln some ways, your father is more and[br]more like a child cooped up here with me

0:55:50.613,0:55:52.376
And l can't talk to him

0:55:53.116,0:55:54.481
l was trying to write

0:55:56.052,0:55:58.486
l had a feeling that[br]he was gonna get himself lost

0:55:59.689,0:56:01.919
just like a kid[br]trying to get some attention

0:56:04.461,0:56:07.396
l grew up believing[br]you should care for your parents

0:56:07.430,0:56:08.795
the way they care for you

0:56:10.600,0:56:12.329
My father is a part of me

0:56:13.370,0:56:14.962
Why can't you accept that?

0:56:22.579,0:56:25.377
l know. l tried

0:56:26.983,0:56:28.416
Just leave me alone

0:57:55.472,0:57:58.032
Oh my god. You've found him[br]Thanks God he's safe

0:57:58.208,0:57:59.607
We're looking for Mr. Alex Chu

0:58:00.109,0:58:03.545
Alex is still out[br]looking for his father. l'm his wife

0:58:03.746,0:58:06.214
Okay. Mr. Chu, you take care of yourself[br]All right?

0:58:06.483,0:58:07.745
Thank you very much officers

0:58:12.622,0:58:15.591
Alex is still out looking for you[br]Are you hungry?

0:58:17.260,0:58:18.090
Thirsty?

0:58:38.715,0:58:40.205
You really should eat something

0:58:46.155,0:58:50.592
l'm sorry too. Alex is furious

1:00:03.833,1:00:07.325
Jesus How did you get so drunk?

1:00:07.770,1:00:10.102
Where did you go?

1:00:10.139,1:00:11.731
l was just walking around

1:00:11.774,1:00:14.743
and l lost sight of the church steeple[br]my landmark

1:00:15.845,1:00:17.870
Policemen brought him back two hours ago

1:00:19.682,1:00:21.172
You're back, that's good

1:01:05.261,1:01:08.628
What are you doing?...[br]What're you doing, Alex?

1:01:08.731,1:01:09.629
Nothing

1:01:09.666,1:01:12.100
l know this wall, it isn't thick

1:01:12.902,1:01:15.029
What are you doing?...

1:01:17.407,1:01:18.237
Mommy

1:01:19.642,1:01:21.803
Calm down...

1:01:28.184,1:01:30.778
Jeremy, Dad isn't feeling well

1:01:30.820,1:01:31.718
he'll be all right

1:01:33.156,1:01:34.180
Let me talk to him

1:01:34.857,1:01:39.055
Dad banged his head by accident

1:01:39.128,1:01:40.254
Do you need a band aid?

1:01:40.730,1:01:41.128
Okay

1:01:49.272,1:01:53.208
Jeremy... is the good one

1:01:56.779,1:01:59.907
who knows better than Mommy and Grandpa[br]how to care for Daddy

1:02:23.740,1:02:26.732
l haven't seen you that drunk[br]since the night we got married

1:02:27.410,1:02:29.173
That drunk? Yeah

1:02:30.279,1:02:33.077
Well, my head is clear now

1:02:33.116,1:02:34.276
What're you mumbling about?

1:02:36.018,1:02:37.781
l've made up my mind already

1:02:38.421,1:02:39.353
About what?

1:02:40.456,1:02:42.083
The old man has got to go

1:02:42.959,1:02:45.359
l'll send him[br]to an old people's apartment

1:02:47.864,1:02:48.831
Are you sure?

1:02:49.799,1:02:51.824
l really don't have too much choice

1:02:55.438,1:02:56.871
l'll go tell him right now

1:03:33.242,1:03:34.140
Come in

1:03:37.013,1:03:39.880
Dad, why didn't you get up[br]and exercise today?

1:03:43.920,1:03:45.114
Aren't you feeling well?

1:03:47.824,1:03:48.916
What's wrong?

1:03:48.958,1:03:53.861
l probably caught cold[br]from being outside too long last night

1:03:58.201,1:03:59.225
l'm going to call a doctor

1:03:59.602,1:04:02.332
You've got important business at work

1:04:02.371,1:04:04.601
Don't waste your time on me

1:04:05.107,1:04:07.007
Come on Dad, cut it out![br]You're never sick

1:04:07.510,1:04:10.001
if you don't feel well[br]it must be serious

1:04:10.580,1:04:12.104
l'll find a doctor for you

1:04:13.382,1:04:17.341
Why get sick now?[br]The vital organs aren't in harmony

1:04:17.386,1:04:20.014
The circulation's blocked[br]That's why l'm sick

1:04:43.546,1:04:46.071
Dad, Ma's been gone for so many years

1:04:46.115,1:04:47.980
and you've never wanted[br]to look at her picture

1:04:48.885,1:04:50.375
l couldn't face her

1:04:51.988,1:04:53.182
Do you remember this scar!?

1:04:55.958,1:04:57.892
The day when the red guards[br]came to our house

1:04:58.628,1:05:00.858
they knew they couldn't hurt me

1:05:01.397,1:05:03.524
so they took it out on you[br]and your mother

1:05:04.100,1:05:05.624
l only had this one body!

1:05:06.435,1:05:08.926
ln protecting you[br]l couldn't protect your mother

1:05:09.672,1:05:13.267
When they finally stopped their beating[br]she was too gravely injured to survive

1:05:14.010,1:05:17.104
ln this one life[br]l can never face your mother again

1:05:17.146,1:05:18.374
but l can face you!

1:05:19.115,1:05:22.084
lt's been so many years

1:05:22.118,1:05:23.608
why talk about it now?

1:05:25.354,1:05:26.878
l feel stifled

1:05:27.957,1:05:29.151
Let me tell you something

1:05:29.191,1:05:31.921
compared to loneliness[br]persecution is easy

1:05:33.029,1:05:34.929
Look at how much hardship

1:05:35.431,1:05:39.925
and injustice l've endured

1:05:39.969,1:05:42.267
in the last 40 years

1:05:42.939,1:05:45.999
Their tortures only inspired me[br]to perfect my kung-fu

1:05:47.410,1:05:49.435
To study the Soft lnternal Style[br]of Strength

1:05:49.478,1:05:52.413
we pursue more refined states of being

1:05:52.648,1:05:55.481
with the loss of tension[br]we attain concentration

1:05:55.518,1:05:59.420
And from that one[br]we achieve carefree nothingness

1:05:59.455,1:06:02.117
but this is nearly impossible to attain

1:06:03.693,1:06:06.685
Yes, it's easy to have physical strength[br]but inner strength is harder to practise

1:06:06.729,1:06:10.062
Go on, don't bullshit me!

1:06:13.002,1:06:14.936
Okay, l'll go call a doctor

1:06:16.238,1:06:20.402
Do me a favor[br]and call the Chinese school principal

1:06:20.443,1:06:22.377
tell him l can't teach[br]the class on Saturday

1:06:23.546,1:06:25.036
Okay. You'll go when you're better

1:06:25.081,1:06:26.605
l'm not going anymore

1:06:27.216,1:06:28.012
Why?

1:06:29.018,1:06:32.044
The students always want me to show off[br]l hate that

1:06:32.755,1:06:34.416
Then what will you do on the weekends?

1:06:35.124,1:06:38.491
Why don't we change[br]to that school north of here

1:06:38.661,1:06:40.128
You mean with Mrs. Chen?

1:06:40.363,1:06:44.094
No! They say it'll be good[br]for Jeremy's studies

1:06:44.567,1:06:47.297
l heard they're much stricter

1:06:48.971,1:06:50.131
How about it?

1:06:58.147,1:06:59.375
So did you tell him?

1:06:59.415,1:07:01.747
He's sick. Caught a cold from last night

1:07:02.118,1:07:02.675
l couldn't tell him

1:07:02.718,1:07:03.707
l hope it's not serious

1:07:04.553,1:07:05.485
No, l don't think so

1:07:06.155,1:07:08.055
But l'd better take him to the doctor's

1:07:10.659,1:07:11.591
l've got a great idea

1:07:11.627,1:07:13.993
about what to do with him[br]without hurting anyone's feelings

1:07:15.998,1:07:16.987
What's that?

1:07:20.536,1:07:22.003
Just be patient

1:07:22.038,1:07:25.303
Promise me, you'll be nice to him[br]for the time being

1:07:25.341,1:07:27.104
Okay? Go on!

1:07:38.154,1:07:40.588
What? Nothing

1:07:41.023,1:07:42.820
Then why do you keep looking[br]at your watch?

1:07:44.026,1:07:44.788
Nothing

1:07:51.333,1:07:55.292
Hello... yes, l am. Yici

1:07:56.138,1:07:58.106
How's the picnic? Thanks

1:08:01.043,1:08:03.068
Sorry for bothering you again

1:08:03.145,1:08:04.305
Yes, it's great weather

1:08:04.346,1:08:06.143
and great for a picnic

1:08:06.582,1:08:08.072
Unfortunately[br]he doesn't have much energy now

1:08:08.117,1:08:10.551
lf he got sick again, it'll be trouble

1:08:11.187,1:08:12.814
Take a break

1:08:14.056,1:08:16.616
Say thank you to Chen Mama for me

1:08:16.658,1:08:18.091
Okay

1:08:18.127,1:08:19.754
Don't hang up Hold on

1:08:20.462,1:08:22.090
Who said l'm sick?

1:08:22.798,1:08:24.265
l didn't say sick, l said energy

1:08:24.733,1:08:27.827
No energy - means you need to get out!

1:08:31.307,1:08:33.832
My father says he's fine

1:08:33.876,1:08:35.366
he'd like to get some exercises

1:08:35.810,1:08:38.803
Let's use our plan then Okay

1:08:38.848,1:08:42.578
Okay, that's settled then

1:08:42.618,1:08:43.380
Bye

1:08:44.386,1:08:45.613
Right

1:08:45.654,1:08:47.349
How can it be healthy

1:08:47.389,1:08:50.415
to stay home all the time!

1:09:08.243,1:09:09.506
Ma, l've already had two

1:09:09.545,1:09:10.477
Have more

1:09:11.380,1:09:13.245
Here Yi-yi Thank you

1:09:13.816,1:09:15.215
Kids should eat more

1:09:17.185,1:09:17.845
Jeremy

1:09:17.886,1:09:18.854
No, thanks

1:09:20.156,1:09:20.884
Have more!

1:09:21.157,1:09:22.624
Help yourself, don't worry about him

1:09:23.192,1:09:24.216
Have another piece No...

1:09:24.260,1:09:25.625
There's lots of meat

1:09:25.661,1:09:27.151
no point is saving it

1:09:27.863,1:09:29.728
l have to leave some room for tonight

1:09:30.533,1:09:31.693
lt's the middle of the day

1:09:31.734,1:09:33.531
You're a big man!

1:09:34.136,1:09:34.568
Come on!

1:09:34.603,1:09:36.229
l haven't eaten since yesterday morning

1:09:36.272,1:09:37.863
l'm preparing for the dinner[br]you're cooking tonight

1:09:38.274,1:09:39.241
You stupid one

1:09:40.442,1:09:41.636
Nonsense! Here

1:09:42.411,1:09:44.572
He's reaching middle age

1:09:44.613,1:09:45.375
he's afraid of fat

1:09:45.413,1:09:47.881
cholesterol, and high blood pressure[br]Give it to me

1:09:51.921,1:09:52.819
Ma, again?

1:09:52.854,1:09:54.516
Yes, damn it

1:09:55.391,1:09:56.380
Can you give me a little massage?

1:10:02.364,1:10:03.490
Let me take a look

1:10:03.699,1:10:06.759
How can l let you do that?

1:10:06.902,1:10:07.664
lt's okay

1:10:14.810,1:10:15.868
Did you find the spot?

1:10:16.312,1:10:17.540
This is trouble

1:10:17.580,1:10:19.673
lf it's trouble, leave it alone No

1:10:19.782,1:10:25.277
There's too little flow[br]and too much blood

1:10:25.321,1:10:28.154
This kind of problem[br]is called Mid-Spring Paralysis

1:10:28.190,1:10:31.557
Now try to move the pinky toe[br]on your left foot

1:10:37.333,1:10:38.732
Did you feel that subtle pain?

1:10:40.336,1:10:41.268
So, l was right

1:10:41.303,1:10:43.168
When this illness gets serious

1:10:43.205,1:10:46.174
you'll get a spasm under your knee[br]sore waist

1:10:46.208,1:10:48.506
you back will give out[br]your neck will tense up

1:10:48.544,1:10:51.638
you won't be able to lift your arm

1:10:51.680,1:10:55.241
and your muscles will be stretched[br]between your armpits in one tight knot

1:10:55.751,1:10:57.844
Enough! ln a minute

1:10:57.886,1:11:00.684
you'll be looking right through[br]at all my internal organs!

1:11:00.923,1:11:01.821
Let me see

1:11:02.825,1:11:04.292
lt's her right shoulder that's stiff

1:11:04.326,1:11:05.520
He knows!

1:11:05.561,1:11:07.290
He was rubbing your left hand

1:11:07.329,1:11:07.920
Shush!

1:11:30.352,1:11:32.286
lt's burning Burning?

1:11:32.321,1:11:33.754
Your meat, on the barbeque

1:11:36.592,1:11:39.254
Why don't you pay attention[br]to your own business

1:11:40.262,1:11:41.251
Mr. Chu, thank you

1:11:42.298,1:11:43.390
l've just begun

1:11:43.999,1:11:46.627
You've got a complicated problem

1:11:46.669,1:11:48.398
lt would take over a year of treatment[br]to get results

1:11:48.971,1:11:51.405
What a bother![br]Okay, don't break me apart

1:11:52.508,1:11:55.909
Jeremy, let's go play frisbee

1:11:55.944,1:11:56.911
Oh goody, goody

1:11:56.945,1:11:58.344
l would like looking

1:11:59.348,1:12:01.009
Don't go too far, you hear me?[br]Okay

1:12:11.827,1:12:14.352
Mr. Chu, your kung-fu is so powerful

1:12:14.396,1:12:15.795
how do you manage[br]to have such elegant calligraphy?

1:12:15.964,1:12:18.831
l'm ashamed to talk about it

1:12:19.435,1:12:21.960
My grandfather[br]was a Ching Dynasty Scholar

1:12:22.004,1:12:24.495
my father was one of the founders

1:12:24.540,1:12:27.509
of the Nationalist government

1:12:27.776,1:12:30.438
My son is a Ph D in computer science

1:12:30.479,1:12:32.447
ln the middle of this line

1:12:32.481,1:12:35.382
there's worthless me

1:12:35.417,1:12:37.351
Fate and circumstances

1:12:37.386,1:12:40.321
pushed me to spend my life

1:12:40.823,1:12:42.415
practising martial arts

1:12:42.491,1:12:44.755
You shouldn't say that

1:12:45.461,1:12:49.625
l had bad health when l was a kid

1:12:49.665,1:12:51.690
l'm an only son

1:12:51.734,1:12:54.328
My family was worried

1:12:54.370,1:12:57.362
They took one of the doctor's advice

1:12:57.406,1:13:01.342
which is, and made me practise kung-fu

1:13:01.510,1:13:04.104
l couldn't take the rough styles

1:13:04.146,1:13:08.480
l could only take the gentle styles[br]like Tai Chi Chuan

1:13:12.588,1:13:15.955
Who would have thought that[br]a couple years later

1:13:15.991,1:13:19.017
l was completely vigorous and healthy

1:13:19.895,1:13:21.590
At 30

1:13:21.630,1:13:24.758
l won a national[br]Tai Chi Pushing Hands Championship

1:13:24.800,1:13:27.360
Exercising the body[br]and teaching students

1:13:27.903,1:13:30.394
That's a relatively simple[br]trouble-free life

1:13:31.473,1:13:32.997
What's good?

1:13:33.041,1:13:37.102
Since the communist liberation[br]l've been persecuted in every movement

1:13:37.413,1:13:38.903
Let's not talk about it

1:13:38.947,1:13:42.383
Teaching students has hurt me so much

1:13:42.418,1:13:43.385
Yes

1:13:43.786,1:13:46.380
Have you gone back to see your old home[br]and relatives since Taiwan loosened up?

1:13:46.955,1:13:48.115
Last year

1:13:49.425,1:13:50.949
l went back but l don't have any[br]close relative just a few nieces

1:13:50.993,1:13:52.551
and nephews

1:13:53.929,1:13:55.658
Still, a reunion with your family

1:13:56.398,1:13:59.196
it must have been a happy time

1:13:59.435,1:14:00.402
Not really

1:14:03.439,1:14:05.566
When l left, they weren't born

1:14:06.742,1:14:08.209
l felt like Santa Claus

1:14:08.644,1:14:10.134
giving so many gifts

1:14:10.179,1:14:11.441
None of them were born when l left!

1:14:12.514,1:14:13.640
Peking seemed to have

1:14:14.016,1:14:15.745
lost its flavor

1:14:15.784,1:14:17.911
the old warmth was gone

1:14:19.488,1:14:21.956
But l was very young[br]when l left 40 years ago

1:14:23.058,1:14:25.083
maybe my memories are mistaken

1:14:25.127,1:14:26.094
Anyway

1:14:27.029,1:14:30.430
l don't know what it was

1:14:30.499,1:14:32.160
everything seemed unreal. l couldn't[br]put my old and new impression together

1:14:32.568,1:14:35.196
Your impressions are not mistaken

1:14:35.737,1:14:36.829
Peking has changed a lot

1:14:37.739,1:14:38.569
ls that so?

1:14:39.541,1:14:45.810
When l talk with you, l feel closer[br]to you than with my neighbors in Peking

1:14:45.848,1:14:46.644
Really?

1:14:47.850,1:14:49.875
Relax, don't move

1:15:16.612,1:15:17.874
Ma, you're still in one piece

1:15:18.247,1:15:19.111
You child!

1:15:19.915,1:15:21.906
We're going to take the kids up the hill

1:15:22.284,1:15:23.615
Don't go too far Okay

1:15:24.586,1:15:26.144
Don't leave us here!

1:15:26.188,1:15:26.813
l'm going with you

1:15:27.489,1:15:28.547
Ma, it's a steep climb

1:15:28.590,1:15:29.454
You won't make it

1:15:29.491,1:15:31.482
l'll take it slow

1:15:31.960,1:15:34.053
Come on! Let's get everything cleaned up

1:15:34.096,1:15:35.063
and put in the car

1:15:44.273,1:15:46.969
Let the young folks go ahead

1:15:47.609,1:15:48.576
You take it slow

1:15:49.044,1:15:50.170
No, l'm fine

1:15:51.880,1:15:54.110
How come your son-in-law[br]didn't come today?

1:15:56.718,1:15:58.982
Gone... gone... a... way on bus...

1:15:59.555,1:16:00.544
business

1:16:00.589,1:16:02.318
lf he weren't away we wouldn't have you[br]over for dinner

1:16:04.293,1:16:04.850
Don't mention him

1:16:04.893,1:16:06.622
He makes me angry

1:16:07.262,1:16:08.160
What about your daughter-in-law?

1:16:09.565,1:16:11.328
Ah... let's go

1:16:20.976,1:16:23.069
Chen Mama, it's too much for you[br]Let's go down

1:16:23.111,1:16:24.339
Nonsense! Let's go!

1:17:03.619,1:17:06.782
Don't run so fast, wait for me

1:17:07.623,1:17:08.590
Hey!

1:17:13.629,1:17:17.360
The young are so energetic

1:17:17.733,1:17:20.201
They can't slow down. Let them go ahead

1:17:20.268,1:17:22.668
l'll climb slowly with you. Why not[br]sit down and rest a bit

1:17:31.113,1:17:33.343
l'm old, useless

1:17:33.382,1:17:34.747
No one wants me

1:17:35.651,1:17:38.211
We're out for fun[br]Why get mad at the kids?

1:17:39.755,1:17:42.849
How can you be so developed in kung-fu[br]and not have any insight?

1:17:43.692,1:17:45.284
They set us up

1:17:45.694,1:17:46.251
Set us up?

1:17:47.629,1:17:49.153
Your precious son came[br]to our house last week

1:17:49.197,1:17:51.722
and arranged for my daughter

1:17:52.234,1:17:54.930
to call and invite you

1:17:55.637,1:17:57.730
They thought l was taking a nap

1:17:57.773,1:17:59.138
but l heard everything

1:18:00.208,1:18:01.072
Can't be?

1:18:01.109,1:18:02.167
How come

1:18:02.711,1:18:04.702
at our age

1:18:06.014,1:18:07.743
we don't have any self-respect?

1:18:07.783,1:18:09.216
Letting two children manipulate us!

1:18:10.919,1:18:12.750
What is this?

1:18:15.757,1:18:18.351
l'm old and useless

1:18:28.003,1:18:32.201
Son, thank you for your good will

1:18:32.240,1:18:36.142
trying to fix me up with Mrs. Chen

1:18:36.178,1:18:38.373
But we still have our pride[br]No need to drive me out

1:18:38.413,1:18:39.744
l have the sense to leave on my own

1:18:40.282,1:18:43.342
You know the saying[br]'lt's easier to struggle together

1:18:43.385,1:18:44.750
than to pass happy days together'

1:18:44.986,1:18:46.351
l never imagined

1:18:46.388,1:18:49.050
this would apply to us

1:18:49.725,1:18:52.421
ln China

1:18:53.361,1:18:56.888
we managed to stay happily together[br]through so many bitter times

1:18:57.332,1:18:59.698
but here in America[br]with so many fine material things

1:18:59.735,1:19:02.169
it seems there's no place[br]in your home for me

1:19:02.771,1:19:05.433
Comparing the two

1:19:05.474,1:19:10.411
l can't help but recall the days[br]when you were a small lovely boy

1:19:11.113,1:19:12.102
Don't look for me

1:19:12.781,1:19:15.477
Enjoy your life with your family

1:19:16.017,1:19:17.712
l wish you all the best

1:19:18.019,1:19:20.010
lf you have time

1:19:20.055,1:19:22.353
send my regards to Mrs. Chen[br]and her daughter

1:19:23.391,1:19:26.986
The world is so big[br]l'll find a little room

1:19:27.529,1:19:30.794
where l can spend my worthless old age

1:19:31.066,1:19:33.398
Life passes before one's eyes like smoke[br]nothing but emptiness

1:19:33.435,1:19:36.962
One shouldn't set[br]one's heart on anything

1:19:37.005,1:19:38.905
Father

1:19:49.751,1:19:52.242
Thank you, come again

1:19:53.822,1:19:54.481
Bye-bye

1:20:05.133,1:20:06.532
Please, faster

1:20:06.568,1:20:08.399
if l can't put out the soup[br]my other dishes can't go out

1:20:08.436,1:20:09.903
l'll wash you a bowl

1:20:09.938,1:20:10.927
Sorry

1:20:13.775,1:20:14.366
Thanks

1:20:15.877,1:20:17.401
Old Chu, l beg you please, faster

1:20:17.445,1:20:18.810
Coming...

1:20:22.083,1:20:23.948
Why do you keep sending out[br]the take-out orders?

1:20:23.985,1:20:25.919
There's guests at the tables[br]with nothing to eat!

1:20:25.954,1:20:27.148
And a line around the block!

1:20:27.389,1:20:28.879
We can't put out the food

1:20:29.257,1:20:30.246
without dishes!

1:20:32.828,1:20:35.296
Yesterday at the employment agency[br]you said you had experience!

1:20:35.330,1:20:37.127
More or less

1:20:37.566,1:20:39.864
l'm running a business to make money

1:20:39.901,1:20:41.027
not to invite you for dinner

1:20:41.069,1:20:42.468
What do you mean more or less[br]This is less!

1:20:42.571,1:20:44.835
Yeah... don't get mad, l'm hurrying

1:20:46.508,1:20:47.770
You have to soak the honey banana[br]ball plates in hot water

1:20:47.809,1:20:50.778
Don't just scrape them!

1:20:50.812,1:20:53.303
You break the plate, you pay for it![br]Yes...

1:20:53.481,1:20:54.413
Hey, Boss

1:20:54.449,1:20:57.509
Do us a favor, let's quit selling[br]those dick-haired honey banana balls?

1:20:57.552,1:20:59.816
lt's hard for us to make and[br]hard for him to wash. lt's not worth it

1:20:59.855,1:21:01.789
l'll decide if it's worth it

1:21:01.823,1:21:04.121
lf you don't like making them[br]go work somewhere else

1:21:04.893,1:21:06.554
Just a good hearted suggestion

1:21:07.429,1:21:08.054
Thanks!

1:21:08.897,1:21:10.262
What are you three guys stuck here for?

1:21:10.298,1:21:11.026
Waiting for bowls

1:21:11.466,1:21:12.899
Can't you do something else[br]while you wait?

1:21:12.934,1:21:14.231
Are your brain dead?

1:21:14.402,1:21:15.369
There's nothing else to do?!

1:21:15.937,1:21:16.835
Are the Mu Shu Pork pancakes steamed?

1:21:16.872,1:21:17.896
ln the steamer

1:21:17.939,1:21:18.496
The pickled cabbage is out

1:21:18.540,1:21:19.905
The wontons are boiling

1:21:19.941,1:21:21.875
the forks are cleaned

1:21:21.910,1:21:23.343
the tables are cleared[br]the checks are paid

1:21:57.279,1:21:57.904
Chu

1:21:58.980,1:22:00.072
here's today's pay

1:22:01.016,1:22:01.573
Thank you

1:22:03.151,1:22:05.312
This isn't working out

1:22:05.687,1:22:06.654
Don't come tomorrow

1:22:06.988,1:22:08.250
l'll find someone else

1:22:08.924,1:22:10.892
Boss he's going okay now

1:22:11.293,1:22:12.317
Enough

1:22:12.694,1:22:14.491
No Problem

1:22:14.996,1:22:16.224
there were enough dishes

1:22:16.264,1:22:17.231
What do mean enough dishes, no problem?

1:22:17.265,1:22:19.529
lt was only after the dinner rush hour

1:22:19.567,1:22:21.899
that thing returned to normal

1:22:21.937,1:22:24.030
Don't be pleading for him[br]because he's old

1:22:26.041,1:22:27.668
Lots of young guys[br]would fight for the chance

1:22:27.709,1:22:29.609
to make 700 dollars a month[br]washing dishes

1:22:29.644,1:22:30.975
Why should l have an old man?

1:22:31.012,1:22:32.912
l'm not running an old folks home

1:22:33.481,1:22:36.245
Boss, please give me another chance

1:22:36.318,1:22:38.718
We all have to start somewhere. Right?

1:22:41.723,1:22:44.021
Okay... One more chance

1:22:44.059,1:22:45.026
Thank you

1:25:13.475,1:25:14.874

Thanks Sargeant. Bye bye

1:25:48.510,1:25:50.910
Linda. lt's Alex

1:25:52.180,1:25:56.276
Let's have a talk... about the house

1:26:00.855,1:26:05.155
Hey, congratulations on your review:[br]A bold new voice in women's fiction

1:26:05.193,1:26:06.217
Better late then never

1:26:06.261,1:26:08.559
l'm really proud of you, although

1:26:08.596,1:26:11.656
it makes me feel like l should quit[br]my job and become a painter

1:26:13.935,1:26:16.165
ln the meantime, all l do is eat

1:26:16.304,1:26:17.271
Maybe you're pregnant

1:26:18.373,1:26:21.536
Sure, if you believe[br]in immaculate conception

1:26:23.845,1:26:26.143
l'm even thinking of going to my high[br]school reunion to see

1:26:26.181,1:26:27.876
if there are any aging jocks[br]still available

1:26:28.183,1:26:28.706
Linda

1:26:30.518,1:26:33.817
Well at least l have my work[br]How's yours going?

1:26:34.322,1:26:35.380
Two chapters this week

1:26:35.523,1:26:37.889
Oh, more travails of study pioneer women

1:26:38.359,1:26:40.589
Actually[br]l've written in a Chinese family

1:26:40.628,1:26:42.493
The father brought over to work[br]on the railroads

1:26:42.530,1:26:45.192
Don't tell me you miss the old geezer?

1:26:45.767,1:26:46.597
Of course not

1:26:47.168,1:26:47.827
Runaway Grandpa

1:26:47.869,1:26:50.235
l'm gonna have nightmares[br]for the rest of my life

1:26:50.271,1:26:52.739
imagining his face[br]on the side of my milk cartons

1:26:53.308,1:26:54.297
lt's sad

1:26:55.210,1:26:56.234
And Alex...

1:26:56.277,1:26:57.244
He blames you, does he?

1:26:57.445,1:27:01.381
No, he's just anxious. l blame myself

1:27:08.957,1:27:10.515
How can l let you do this?

1:27:10.558,1:27:12.423
You'd better do your own work

1:27:12.794,1:27:14.318
Don't worry about me

1:27:14.362,1:27:15.920
Once l get busy[br]l won't be able to help you anyway

1:27:16.497,1:27:18.192
Wu, thanks a lot

1:27:18.233,1:27:19.598
but everyone's got work to do

1:27:19.634,1:27:21.659
Don't treat me special. l'll manage

1:27:23.271,1:27:25.603
Chu, this is for you, l got someone

1:27:26.307,1:27:27.535
Boss, l've been doing all right

1:27:32.313,1:27:34.440
Eight bowls, five plates

1:27:34.816,1:27:35.976
it's only 6:30p.m.

1:27:36.351,1:27:37.818
You need those two to help you

1:27:38.219,1:27:39.277
What happens at 7:30

1:27:39.320,1:27:42.016
when the guests[br]are lined up outside the door?

1:27:42.223,1:27:44.521
He didn't ask for help[br]we volunteered

1:27:44.726,1:27:46.387
You volunteered, fine![br]He asked for help, fine!

1:27:46.427,1:27:48.691
l don't care[br]l can't take any risks tonight

1:27:48.730,1:27:51.290
Liu go downstairs[br]and get yourself an apron

1:27:52.634,1:27:54.761
Here's ten dollars[br]take it or leave it

1:27:54.836,1:27:57.600
Boss, why do you have to treat[br]an old man this way?

1:27:58.006,1:27:59.871
l'll wash faster

1:28:01.376,1:28:03.207
Not just faster but clean too!

1:28:03.244,1:28:05.235
Come on, cut the crap, go!

1:28:05.280,1:28:07.475
This is money

1:28:08.249,1:28:09.273
Have you heard that before?

1:28:10.685,1:28:12.778
Probably not, being from the mainland

1:28:13.388,1:28:15.913
l know everything's shared there[br]working more gets you nothing

1:28:15.957,1:28:18.790
Four decades of such thinking produced

1:28:18.826,1:28:19.656
all you lazy bums

1:28:21.496,1:28:22.690
Who are you calling a lazy bums?

1:28:23.831,1:28:25.492
Eh? What's wrong? You don't accept that?

1:28:25.900,1:28:28.368
Then go back to China and live off[br]your relatives. Go on!

1:28:28.436,1:28:29.528
No one's stopping you

1:28:29.971,1:28:31.962
l'm telling you, this is America

1:28:32.006,1:28:33.530
There's no communal property

1:28:33.574,1:28:34.506
You have to earn everything

1:28:34.542,1:28:36.567
yourself!

1:28:36.644,1:28:39.010
lf you want to be American[br]then why don't you go all the way

1:28:39.047,1:28:40.139
and buy dishwasher

1:28:40.181,1:28:41.478
lt'll wash faster and cleaner

1:28:42.016,1:28:46.009
Yeh! l'm offering you ten dollars

1:28:46.054,1:28:47.885
because l respect your age

1:28:48.056,1:28:49.785
l'm saving face for you

1:28:49.824,1:28:51.018
if you don't want that

1:28:51.292,1:28:52.350
l'll throw you out!

1:28:53.461,1:28:55.486
See if you can

1:28:56.297,1:28:58.424
Don't think l won't touch you[br]because you're old

1:28:58.900,1:29:00.367
Come try me!

1:29:00.802,1:29:04.067
lf you can move me half a step[br]l won't say another word

1:29:04.105,1:29:06.039
l'll turn and leave

1:29:06.307,1:29:07.433
Don't

1:29:12.680,1:29:14.375
So the old geezer knows kung-fu

1:29:14.749,1:29:16.808
No wonder you dared[br]be so arrogant with me!

1:29:20.355,1:29:22.323
Oww! Li, Wu, help me!

1:29:22.824,1:29:23.848
l'm not getting involved in this

1:29:24.926,1:29:26.951
Cooks, Chang, Chien, get over here!

1:29:27.061,1:29:29.393
Boss, this is none of our business

1:29:29.897,1:29:31.387
Do you want to keep working here?

1:29:32.900,1:29:33.764
Quick

1:29:39.040,1:29:41.634
Old Chu, don't get angry

1:29:41.676,1:29:43.041
but we've all got families[br]to take care of

1:29:43.778,1:29:45.143
We'll just move you half a step, okay?

1:29:45.713,1:29:47.476
Then the business will keep going[br]Everyone, thank you

1:29:48.516,1:29:49.983
Come on, careful now

1:29:52.987,1:29:53.885
Get him!

1:29:54.922,1:29:56.389
Liu, help out!

1:29:56.424,1:29:56.822
Wu, help!

1:29:59.794,1:30:00.954
Go and help

1:30:21.716,1:30:25.152
Chu, you're a hero. We can't move you

1:30:25.186,1:30:26.847
We brothers apologize

1:30:28.456,1:30:31.482
Boss Huang, we quit

1:30:32.059,1:30:37.122
Go find yourself some of those thick[br]skinned types with big muscles

1:30:37.165,1:30:38.530
l can't take this

1:30:40.535,1:30:43.470
Hey, you can't all leave!

1:30:44.872,1:30:47.033
Okay! l'm calling[br]every employment agency!

1:30:47.074,1:30:49.474
Don't think you'll work[br]in New York again!

1:30:50.011,1:30:51.444
Fuck you You

1:30:53.548,1:30:55.880
All right tough guy![br]The business is closed tonight

1:30:55.917,1:30:57.976
But l'm calling the cops on you!

1:30:58.019,1:31:00.886
l don't have a green card[br]You hired me illegally

1:31:00.922,1:31:02.446
They'll find you three thousand dollars

1:31:02.824,1:31:03.552
l'm telling you

1:31:03.591,1:31:06.617
l'll move you without the cops!

1:31:16.571,1:31:18.562
Thank you, come again

1:31:46.267,1:31:49.134
Grab him! He's like an eel

1:31:49.704,1:31:50.671
He's like a slimy fish

1:32:12.827,1:32:14.761
Yeah, l've seen this kind before

1:33:15.089,1:33:17.284
Ten police officers[br]from the Fifth Precinct

1:33:17.325,1:33:21.659
were injured earlier this evening[br]in a brawl inside a Chinatown restaurant

1:33:21.696,1:33:22.856
Helen Wong reports

1:33:23.831,1:33:26.265
Shirley l'm standing[br]in front of the Lai Fu restaurant

1:33:26.467,1:33:27.365
The owner Frankie Huang

1:33:27.401,1:33:30.666
tried to fire his 70-year old dishwasher[br]here earlier this evening

1:33:30.738,1:33:32.797
But Huang got more than he bargained for

1:33:32.840,1:33:36.776
Because the man he tried to fire Mr. Chu[br]refused to leave the restaurant

1:33:36.877,1:33:37.536
Alex

1:33:37.578,1:33:39.842
Police said that[br]Mr. Chu is a Tai Chi master

1:33:39.880,1:33:43.611
and he let lose a 1 30 pounds[br]of martial arts fury

1:33:43.651,1:33:45.846
And hurt over[br]a dozen of New York's finest

1:33:46.020,1:33:50.184
Now it appears that Mr. Chu's being led[br]out of the restaurant by the police

1:33:50.224,1:33:55.628
and is being put into a squad car[br]and taken to the precinct and be arrested

1:33:56.230,1:34:00.064
Reporting live, Helen Wong[br]now back to you at the studio

1:34:36.337,1:34:38.396
He's been like this[br]ever since he came in

1:34:38.739,1:34:40.730
The entire time he has been here

1:34:40.775,1:34:43.710
he hasn't said anything[br]nor has he eaten or drunk anything

1:34:44.845,1:34:48.645
l tell you l don't know[br]if he's meditating or sleeping

1:34:55.823,1:34:57.017
lf you don't mind me saying so Mr. Chu

1:34:57.058,1:34:59.390
it's... kind of depressing

1:35:06.667,1:35:08.726
l'll let you go in and talk to him

1:35:09.103,1:35:09.933
Thank you officer

1:35:10.671,1:35:11.296
Any time

1:35:27.755,1:35:28.779
Dad

1:35:37.098,1:35:41.000
Ah, attaining nothingness isn't easy

1:35:43.771,1:35:45.261
Dad, we've bought a new house

1:35:46.040,1:35:47.132
it's much bigger than the old one

1:35:48.476,1:35:49.340
What for?

1:35:50.711,1:35:52.110
l'm here to take you home

1:35:52.146,1:35:54.979
Home? Whose home?

1:35:56.717,1:35:58.082
My home is your home!

1:35:59.220,1:36:02.246
Forget it. l see clearly now

1:36:03.290,1:36:05.724
the only thing that matters[br]is that you have a happy life

1:36:06.327,1:36:08.761
lf you want to show me[br]some filial respect

1:36:10.097,1:36:11.496
get me

1:36:12.166,1:36:16.296
an apartment in Chinatown

1:36:17.304,1:36:21.934
Let me peacefully pass my days there[br]disciplining my spirit

1:36:23.310,1:36:24.800
ln your free time[br]bring the boy to see me

1:36:25.279,1:36:27.247
This way when we get together

1:36:28.816,1:36:32.877
there'll still be some good feelings

1:36:35.456,1:36:39.483
Dad

1:36:40.060,1:36:42.756
all these years[br]l've studied and worked hard

1:36:42.863,1:36:44.922
and built my family

1:36:45.766,1:36:48.326
in order that one day[br]l could bring you to America

1:36:49.270,1:36:51.864
so you could have some good days[br]in your life

1:36:53.474,1:36:54.338
Dad!

1:37:07.855,1:37:10.119
Alex, can you give a hand up here?

1:37:10.224,1:37:12.522
Okay, coming up

1:37:19.834,1:37:20.801
ls this straight?

1:37:21.602,1:37:22.796
Lower in the left

1:37:23.838,1:37:25.032
Yeah, it's fine

1:37:25.439,1:37:27.373
Do you think[br]he'll ever spend a night here?

1:37:27.408,1:37:31.071
Oh, yes. As long as Jeremy is here[br]Grandpa will visit

1:37:31.278,1:37:33.269
Jeremy wants to be a Tai Chi master

1:37:33.314,1:37:35.544
Why didn't you ever learn[br]any Tai Chi from your father?

1:37:35.583,1:37:39.246
You know, for Dad[br]Tai Chi was a way to escape from reality

1:37:39.920,1:37:42.787
Even when he did pushing hands, for him

1:37:42.823,1:37:44.848
it was a way to avoid other people

1:37:45.092,1:37:45.922
Pushing hands?

1:37:46.560,1:37:49.461
Yeah, it's like Tai Chi for two

1:37:50.898,1:37:52.957
A way of keeping your balance

1:37:53.067,1:37:54.967
while unbalancing your opponent

1:37:55.002,1:37:57.368
Like marriage... only kidding

1:37:57.838,1:37:59.328
Okay, you stand like this...

1:38:01.375,1:38:02.433
Balanced? Yup

1:38:02.543,1:38:04.477
lf you try to unbalance me

1:38:04.511,1:38:06.342
l simply avoid your energy

1:38:06.380,1:38:08.143
and turn it back on you

1:38:13.120,1:38:13.984
Relax

1:40:05.599,1:40:09.000
Mrs. Chen, long time no see

1:40:09.103,1:40:11.094
You've come a long way to buy groceries

1:40:11.138,1:40:12.765
No, not far. l live in the area

1:40:13.741,1:40:14.935
Your daughter moved?

1:40:14.975,1:40:16.135
No, l moved

1:40:16.977,1:40:19.741
That's great![br]Living on your own, you're free

1:40:19.780,1:40:21.213
You can do whatever you want

1:40:22.182,1:40:24.514
l just finished shopping

1:40:24.551,1:40:27.611
saw it was early[br]and decided to stop by your class

1:40:27.988,1:40:30.081
How did you know l was teaching here?

1:40:31.358,1:40:33.121
Wow! Who doesn't know[br]about the hero old Mr. Chu

1:40:33.160,1:40:35.025
famous all over Chinatown

1:40:36.330,1:40:37.592
The TV news showed that you knocked flat

1:40:37.631,1:40:40.065
a gang of American police[br]and Chinese hoodlums

1:40:41.668,1:40:42.965
From what l can see if

1:40:43.003,1:40:44.971
Tai Chi Chuan[br]could be practised upside down

1:40:45.005,1:40:46.472
the ceiling of this old age centre

1:40:46.507,1:40:48.771
would be packed with your students

1:40:49.510,1:40:51.341
You're making fun of me!

1:40:51.412,1:40:53.039
l'm speaking the truth

1:40:54.014,1:40:54.708
did you make a fortune?

1:40:55.449,1:40:56.279
No way

1:40:56.750,1:41:00.516
Every morning l come here[br]and pass the time with the students

1:41:01.655,1:41:03.122
Anyway we old folks

1:41:04.058,1:41:06.618
have nothing but time to kill

1:41:07.027,1:41:09.621
l earn my own money

1:41:09.730,1:41:10.822
and don't take anybody's flack

1:41:11.365,1:41:13.993
That's why l always say

1:41:14.034,1:41:16.264
you can't hold everything inside

1:41:16.303,1:41:18.828
Sometimes you've got to lose your temper[br]to straighten things out

1:41:19.106,1:41:21.301
The kids are grown up

1:41:22.042,1:41:24.340
lf we old folks don't[br]take care of ourselves

1:41:24.378,1:41:25.538
who will?

1:41:27.081,1:41:28.173
You're right

1:41:29.249,1:41:31.080
ls your shoulder better?

1:41:31.151,1:41:32.743
Better?

1:41:33.087,1:41:34.714
At my age, l just thank the heavens

1:41:34.755,1:41:36.222
that it doesn't get worse

1:41:37.057,1:41:38.319
l don't know kung-fu like you

1:41:40.494,1:41:42.189
But is it convenient living alone?

1:41:43.363,1:41:44.057
lt's all right

1:41:45.365,1:41:47.128
My daughter comes to see me every two[br]or three weeks

1:41:47.167,1:41:50.261
when she goes shopping around here

1:41:50.704,1:41:52.228
she cooks and eats with me

1:41:53.273,1:41:57.300
Uhhhh. That's good. Alex[br]and his family do the same

1:42:11.091,1:42:12.353
You'd better take care of your students[br]l'm leaving now

1:42:13.160,1:42:14.422
When you're free, stop by

1:42:15.195,1:42:17.663
We're neighbours now

1:42:17.698,1:42:19.290
Well, take care

1:42:20.167,1:42:20.690
You too

1:42:47.895,1:42:48.657
Mrs. Chen!

1:42:51.498,1:42:52.465
Why did you come out?

1:42:53.734,1:42:55.258
To see if you had left

1:42:56.136,1:42:58.400
The sun is so pleasant today

1:42:58.639,1:42:59.697
l was thinking, l'm just one person

1:42:59.873,1:43:03.138
l could go home or stay out[br]both would be good

1:43:03.177,1:43:05.577
Anyway, standing here[br]l got lost in thought

1:43:05.746,1:43:06.542
Where do you live?

1:43:07.247,1:43:09.340
l live in that building, number 1068

1:43:10.217,1:43:13.152
l live in that building, number 20101

1:43:14.555,1:43:15.749
Stop by for a visit sometime

1:43:17.324,1:43:18.552
Do you have anything[br]to do this afternoon?

1:43:20.294,1:43:24.424
Uh... Nothing
