MANY GREETINGS FROM SWEDEN
[knocking on door]
[woman 1] White Girl,
come and get the laundry.
White Girl, are you awake?
[knocking on door]
- [knocking on door]
- White Girl.
[woman 2] Coming. I'm coming.
[door lock clicking]
- What're you doing? I've been calling you.
- I'm sorry.
Here you go.
Can I have them by Sunday, White Girl?
You can call me Ple.
How many pieces this time?
About 20 to 30.
Oh, let me figure out how much.
[woman 1] White Girl,
discounts go a long way, you know?
I see you're raising a child by yourself.
Okay? See ya.
[melancholy music playing]
Kaew.
[Ple] Why aren't you answering?
[door opens]
Well, where are you, Kaew?
Where are you, Kaew?
Kaew, where are you?
[joyful music playing]
Gosh, I can't find you.
I can't see you at all.
- Boo!
- [Ple] Hey!
Gosh, I was wondering where you were.
Why are you in there? You're wet.
It's not wet in there.
Have you done your exercises?
No, I'm bored with them.
[footsteps receding]
[thudding]
Kaew.
[music stops]
You're going up to first grade soon.
I can't afford tutorials.
If you don't do the exercises,
how can you compete?
I do them every day.
Can't I watch cartoons today?
[Kaew] Please, Mommy, please.
Fine.
But
do the exercises first.
[Ple] All right?
How many episodes?
Hm.
Um
How many episodes now?
Just two, okay?
[button clicking]
[music stops]
[sighs]
[man] Okay, let's take the next call.
Hello, girl.
- [woman] Hello.
- What's your name?
- I'm Bow.
- [man] Where are you?
[Bow] Ang Thong.
[man] What is your horror story?
[Bow] This incident happened to my friend.
First off, I have to tell you
that this woman was a single mom,
and her kid was still little.
People in the neighborhood
thought they were cute together
and adored them.
One day, there was a temple fair.
Towards the end of the fair,
this woman suddenly shouted and screamed
that her kid was drowning
and asked people to help.
But no one helped her,
so she jumped in and searched by herself.
[man] My gosh, no one helped her?
[Bow] No.
After a while, she found her kid's body.
Everyone felt sorry for her.
[man] My goodness.
[Bow] And when she saw her kid was dead,
she cried hysterically
and kept saying
that a ghost took her kid away. So
What?
[sighs]
TERROR TUESDAY
- [Bow] They lived by themselves.
- [Ple] What?
- [Bow] The scary part was
- [Ple] When did it skip?
[Bow] she smashed the TV
she cried hysterically
and kept saying that
a ghost took her kid away.
We asked why she thought so.
She said her kid had acted strangely
a few days before she died.
- [man] How?
- [Bow] She said she played with a sister.
I got goosebumps when I heard that.
I mean, what sister?
Because they lived by themselves.
The scary part was when she got home,
[distorted] she smashed the TV, and she
[thrilling music playing]
[banging on door]
[metal clanking]
[Ple] Auntie Hom.
You came by so late.
What is the date today, dear?
Will you pay your rent arrears already?
Can I have a few more weeks?
I enrolled Kaew in an elementary school,
so it's been hectic.
[Ple] Things should ease up soon.
Ease up?
Things will ease up
after paying the tuition?
After enrollment, you'll also
pay for uniforms, books, and activities.
[Hom] Have you prepared?
So, where did you enroll her?
Triam Phadung Suksa School
like I told you.
[sighs]
Isn't it too expensive, Ple?
How much can you make in a day
from this shop?
Even my kid
goes to the temple school up the alley.
It's a big difference in expenses.
Two weeks.
If you don't pay,
I'll move someone else in.
I'll pay you for sure.
[sighing]
[plastic bag rustling]
This is for Kaew.
Thank you.
[suspenseful music playing]
[dog barking in the distance]
[door lock clicking]
[sighs]
[switch clicking]
[eerie music playing]
[music stops]
[clattering]
[footsteps approaching]
Oh.
- [Ple] Hello, Headmaster.
- Hello.
[Ple] How may I help you?
Isn't the enrollment fee due next week?
I'm here to check the student's house
as per our school's regulations.
[man 1] You should be well aware
of the appointment date.
I think it's in that pile.
[sighs]
[man 1] Can we talk?
[Ple] Have a seat.
[man 2] Yes, Headmaster.
[sighing]
Triam Phadung Suksa School
doesn't focus only on academic excellence
because we believe that students' families
should be able
to support their development too.
Let's check the second floor.
She has her reading zone too.
- Kaew is now
- No need.
This should be enough.
[man 1] My school focuses on
quality education,
so the upkeep fees are a little high.
I suggest you consider
other schools that are more suitable
for the kid and yourself.
But I really want her
to go to your school.
But the quota for first graders
is now full.
So, how much are the fees?
[tense music playing]
How was it?
[phone beeping]
DON'T FORGET OUR PARTY TODAY.
HONG CAME BACK FROM ABROAD.
[Kaew grunting]
[chuckling]
[Ple] Kaew.
Are you loading the laundry
or trying to go in?
Here, I'll show you how.
Pick them up one by one,
and shake them like this.
[Ple] Now, put them in
so they won't get tangled.
Now, try it.
Poof! Okay. Shake it.
Poof!
Here, shake it.
[clacking]
[Kaew] Mommy, what is this?
[joyful music playing]
It's the customer's.
I'll return it.
Kaew, It's past noon
and you haven't taken a bath?
- I'm waiting to take it with you. Please.
- [Ple] You're already six years old.
You can do it yourself.
- [Kaew] No, I want to take it with you.
- Kaew.
Stop making a scene.
- Neighbors will hear you. Kaew.
- [Kaew] Please.
I want to take a bath with you.
- Cut it out!
- [Kaew] I want to take a bath with you.
[Ple] Oops! [laughing]
There.
Open your eyes.
Does it sting? No?
[Ple] What's wrong?
It's too small. I don't like it.
Wear it for now. I'll buy you a new one.
Where are you going?
I have a gathering tonight.
I'll be back late.
If someone knocks on the door,
don't open it.
[Ple] Remember how to use this phone?
Be a good girl and you can watch
cartoons all day tomorrow. Okay?
[suspenseful music playing]
[indistinct chattering]
- [woman 1] Hey, it's Ple.
- [woman 2] Hello.
Have a seat.
- My gosh.
- Hello.
- I didn't think you'd come.
- Why wouldn't I?
- You didn't bring your daughter?
- No, otherwise I can't gossip.
[all laughing]
- I'll get you water.
- Here. Order whatever you want.
It's okay. I have eaten.
I missed you guys so I wanted to chat.
[woman 3] Ow!
- Lookchin, how have you been?
- Me?
All good. I work at home.
My father-in-law's furniture shop.
What about you?
I work at home as a business owner.
- Yeah?
- Yes. A laundry service.
- Ow!
- [woman 2] Um.
Is it like Sin Chai Hua Laundry?
- Not that big.
- [woman 2] Great.
I'll use your service for my hubby's suits
as a way to support you.
Hell no, suits and brand-name clothes
are hard to launder.
Shirts are fine.
Umm.
[woman 3 mouthing]
Ple, if you need our help,
just let us know, okay?
Umm.
It's all good.
I'm not in trouble or anything.
Paycheck to paycheck.
I'm struggling a bit. It's fine.
[woman 3] I see.
[woman 2] But if you can't go on with
your shop, you have other options.
[Lookchin] Yeah.
[woman 3] You can apply for
a full-time job with your degree.
Gosh.
How can I do a full-time job?
Who would look after Kaew?
[woman 3] How about this?
How about you send your daughter
to a boarding school?
Meanwhile, you save up money
and apply for jobs abroad.
Strawberry picking and whatnot aren't bad.
[woman 3] It's better than living here.
there's no future.
[Ple] Hey, that's enough.
Listen,
I'm here to hear about you guys,
not to talk about me.
All right, Madam Hong?
How is life in Sweden?
[woman 4] How about your husband?
Everything is expensive.
Damn expensive.
Just expensive.
[Hong] That's all, you know.
It's paradise here, really.

[Ple panting]
Where have you been?
[Kaew] I went to the bathroom.
Are you okay?
[panting]
[Kaew] Mommy, why are you about to cry?
There, there. Don't cry.
I'm fine.
[Ple] I'm a bit tired.
[groaning]
[sighs]
[Ple] Thank you.
I'm good now.
[Ple] Kaew.
What would you say
if I sent you to a boarding school?
What is a boarding school, Mommy?
It's a school
where you study and sleep at night.
You'll live with me during school breaks.
[Kaew] No.
I don't want to stay alone.
[Kaew] Are you going to leave me
by myself?
- I don't want to be by myself.
- Come on.
I'm joking.
Come on, no need to make a fuss.
[Ple] What did you do today?
[Kaew] I did some exercises,
watched cartoons, and talked to my sister.
What sister?
[eerie music playing]
[Kaew] The one that lives in that house.
She came over to play with me.
[music fades out]

Hello, this is Kaew Laundry Service.

It'll fit you soon.
Kaew.
You're a first grader now.
Be a good girl and study hard.
[Kaew] Will you drop me off at school
every morning?
I'll try to when I'm free.
You always say that,
but you are never around.
I promise I'll try harder, okay?
Here's a reward for the new school year.
You can watch cartoons all day.

That's all I can pay now.
[man 2] So, it's a gorgeous woman.
Just for the interest?
I put some aside for Kaew's books.
Her school's starting soon.

Hey, White Girl. Is my laundry ready?

[eerie music playing]
[woman] Fermented fish
from this shop is so good.
[indistinct chattering]
[woman] Doesn't she feel bad for the kid?
I won't calm down.
She sent her kid to an expensive school.
No wonder she can't pay the tuition.
Where is your mom?
Call her out here now.
- Stop crying.
- [Ple] Hey!
- [Kaew] Mommy!
- [Ple] What's going on? Stop it!
- Mom. [crying]
- What's going on?
[woman] Well, it's good that you're here.
Sergeant, throw her in jail.
I didn't do anything wrong.
You pawned my gold necklace
at Thong's shop.
[Thong] Ple.
Give me back the money
so I can return the gold to her, okay?
Well? Are you still going to deny it?
Will you give it back?
[Kaew crying]
I
I don't have the money.
[woman] Well,
if you can't repay me,
get ready to go to jail.
[Kaew] Where are you going, Mommy?
Ma'am,
I'll repay as soon as I can. I promise.
Can you all leave for now?
Please do it for my kid. I beg you.
Please.
- [Ple] I beg you.
- [woman] Gosh, you're a thief.
How dare you still have the nerve to beg?
You have two days to return my money
or else I'll drag you by your neck
and throw you in jail.
[Kaew] Mommy, what's wrong?
Mommy, where are you going?
Mommy, give me a kiss.
Mommy, please talk with me.
Mommy, you're ignoring me.
Please talk with me.
Mommy, talk with me.
Please talk with me.
- Mommy, talk with me.
- Kaew.
[Ple] Come on. Let's go on a trip.
Where are we going?

Aren't you coming with me?

[woman] Hey, Auntie.
Did Ple really move out?
[Hom] Yes, she did.
I threw her out myself.
Someone like her
would only bring me trouble.
Who knows
when she'd do something crazy again.
[woman] I feel sorry for her, Auntie.
She doesn't have a hubby.
Her kid is dead. She's all alone.
Listen.
Don't feel so sorry for her.
She seems quiet, but can you trust her?
She used to say she wanted to work abroad.
Her kid's gone so she must be happy now.

It took her and it has been following me.

Who took your kid?
