:01:00
So I recorded this cassette for you...
:01:04
my son in America.
:01:07
It will save you lots
on phone bills, too.
:01:10
My shoulder has been hurting
since menopause began.
:01:14
They say after two more years,
it won't hurt anymore.
:01:18
So, Pa has retired from the Army,
and now he's acting strange.
:01:22
Before he was a general...
:01:23
in charge of thousands of troops.
:01:26
Now he's here at home...
:01:27
commanding only me and old Chang...
:01:29
and he's getting very cranky.
:01:33
It's hard for him to run things.
:01:38
Maybe it's because I'm getting old,
and he's getting older...
:01:41
and you're not getting any younger yourself.
:01:44
When will you marry?
:01:46
You know, Pa came from China to Taiwan
by himself...
:01:48
and you're his only precious son.
:01:50
So don't be such a snob!
:01:53
Last week we enrolled you
into Taipei's best singles club...
:01:58
and they'll send you
a computer form...
:02:00
for you to describe your ideal woman.
:02:03
All their girls
have impeccable backgrounds.
:02:06
They are well-educated,
well brought up...
:02:09
elegant and very attractive...
:02:11
like Mrs. Quian's daughter,
the one you refused to marry.
:02:14
Please, son. Don't be so choosy.
:02:21
Relax. Stretch.
:02:24
As a great Chinese poet once said:
:02:34
What's that supposed to mean?
:02:35
If you don't Zen out, you'll be murdered
by your physical therapist.
:02:38
Simon, there's a call for you.
:02:40
Hello.
:02:47
If I give you $1,
will you stop playing for a minute?
:02:49
- Simon?
- Yeah, where are you?
:02:52
In the city. Come here and meet me.
I'll take you out to dinner.
:02:56
You're still mad?
:02:59
It's just we've been
planning this trip for months.
