Grace.
This is Mr. Chai,
the manager of Nopphon Security Printing.
I hope you don't mind Grace joining us this year.
The last time I saw her, she was so small.
Right.
Dear, what is it that you wanted to ask Mr. Chai?
Well, actually…
I have a small favor to ask you.
I knew it.
My friend and I are doing a report for school.
I would like to know more about security printing.
As for Nopphon Security Printing,
we do any printing work that requires security measures,
such as financial documents, bank passbooks,
cheques, driver's licenses,
and even passports.
Do you also print
the GATT-PATT question papers?
Why?
Do you want to take a peek at them?
Just kidding.
My dad told me that every year
the Testing Institute opens bids for the GATT paper printing.
This year, the printing company that won the bid
is Nopphon Security Printing.
NOPPHON SECURITY PRINTING
My dad is friends with Mr. Chai,
the manager of the printing company.
AFFILIATED WITH HONEST COMMERCE PRINTING
Let's switch seats, so you can talk with him.
What do you want to know?
What do you say
if I would like to have a tour at your printing plant
for my report?
It's about…
how to prevent the leaking of question papers.
You can take a look around there.
But if you want to go inside…
I'm afraid I can't let outsiders in.
I see. But I think
it'll be fine since you'll be with us during the tour.
If there's any information I shouldn't know,
you don't have to tell me.
Grace, he's not the owner of the company.
Don't pressure him too much.
All I have to do is ask Mr. Chai
to allow us to look inside the factory, right?
Then we can start the rest of the plan.
But I already gave my word to my friends
that you would allow us to.
Can you give me a letter from the school?
I'll ask permission from Mr. Nopphon
to allow you to visit for your report.
But I can't show you every part of the printing plant.
Sure.
REQUEST LETTER FOR VISITING THE PRINTING PLANT
SIGNATURE: PORNTHIP, HEADMISTRESS
Damn.
Is this a printing plant or the National Stadium?
Grace.
Are the documents ready?
Grace and Lin must go into the plant,
assuming the role of what you actually are.
Students.
Do you have any pens, pencils, or electronic devices?
You can't bring them in.
The two of you will come out and tell us
about the security measures in the plant,
the size and the floor plan,
and where all the rooms are located.
Give us as many details as you can.
TWO DAYS LATER
Six.
Seven.
Eight.
Nine.
Ten.
Ten steps.
PRINTING PRESS, ELECTRIC ROOM
CONTROL ROOM
Is the electric room here, Lin?
Yes, right there.
Babe.
Drawing the plan on the floor like this,
what if someone sees it?
No one comes in here.
My dad's old warehouse
hasn't been used for ten years.
Hey, babe.
Do you know
what eight is equal to?
What?
Eight is equal to D.
Babe.
Here. Once it's finished,
it's going to squirt. Oh, no.
-Babe. -Look.
Babe.
-Babe. -It looks nice though.
-It's… -Great work.
Not at all.
Hey. This is an art masterpiece, you know.
-No way. -Like Van Gogh's.
Hey, guys.
Will you stay focused?
What we're doing is not the same as before.
Previously, we just cheated on exams.
But this time, we're stealing official documents.
If we got caught,
we'd end up in jail for real.
From what Grace and I saw in the plant,
the good news is
there aren't any security cameras inside
to keep their clients' documents confidential.
But the bad news
is that the security measures there are tighter than usual.
At Nopphon Security Printing,
the safety of clients' information is our top priority.
All original copies are manually made
to avoid getting hacked.
Sir.
Yes?
I have something to discuss with you.
Grace.
I need to talk to him for a moment.
Lin.
What should we do?
So far,
there's no way for us to steal the exam papers.
I can't lend it to you.
You're still working to pay off your debts to me.
I won't give it to you this time.
You'll just keep on doing it.
If you have to take care of your kid's tuition,
you'd better start saving money.
Don't use all of them up every month.
If you dare ask me again, I'll fire you…
Mr. Chai sure is scary.
If he finds out what we're planning to do,
we're dead meat, Lin.
Normally, the Testing Institute will request the plant
to print the question papers the night before the exam.
The closer they're printed to the exam time,
the possibility of them being leaked is lower.
That means…
the chance for us to steal the paper
is almost zero.
There must be another way.
You just said
the chance for us to steal the paper is almost zero.
It means there's a possibility.
Actually, there's one way
that seems to be possible.
What are you looking at?
I'm just wondering
if this conveyor belt goes straight to the packing station.
You're very observant.
You're almost right.
I'll take you to see it.
Our plant uses the four-color printing process.
The four primary colors are mixed
into different colors.
When finished, the prints will be transported on this conveyor belt.
And once we finish
adjusting the color plate and get the colors we need,
we will change the direction of the conveyor belt
and send the prints to the packing room.
Every printed document has a barcode.
If one gets lost, we'll know immediately.
But at the beginning of the printing process,
it's normal that the printing plate hasn't been adjusted correctly.
The colors will be misaligned like this. Here.
All of these will be thrown out.
See that chute over there?
That chute
sends the documents to the trash room downstairs.
Got it.
If we can't get our hands on the real copies,
then we'll make use of the discarded ones.
We need to find a way into the trash room.
But the problem is we know nothing about that room.
Mr. Chai didn't take us there.
We have very little information.
What can we do?
Are we supposed to make a wild guess?
Find an insider then.
Get someone who works there to help us.
How close are you to Mr. Chai?
Hey.
Are you thinking of bribing him?
You can't do that.
Mr. Chai knows my father.
If we tell him our plan,
and he doesn't want anything to do with it,
I'll be in trouble.
Hold on.
I think I know…
who we should talk to.
I go upstairs more often.
I'm usually stationed on the top floor.
And like…
You're Fluke, right?
Oh, you came to do your report the other day.
Are you here to see Mr. Chai?
No. I'm here to see you.
See me?
My friend and I have a job for you.
It pays well.
What job is it?
Do you want some?
You guys are planning to steal the exam paper?
I want you to be our consultant.
Tell us what we need to do
to get into the trash room of the plant.
I can't stab my boss in the back.
This is not right.
We'll give you 100,000 baht…
in exchange for your work experience.
You don't have to do anything.
Just listen to our plan
and tell us if there are any holes in it.
For 100,000?
TRASH ROOM
The trash room is around here.
What is it like inside?
It's a windowless room
to store documents that have been shredded.
Try to imagine.
Right there, that's the chute
connected to the belt upstairs.
The discarded papers will come down this chute
and into the shredder,
which is placed directly below.
Wouldn't all the papers be shredded then?
There's a gap between the chute and the shredder.
If you can grab the paper
before it falls into the shredder,
I think
you'll be able to take it out.
If we sneak a phone into the plant,
we can take photos of the exam in the trash room
and send it to people outside.
How can we sneak the phone in?
Take-out boxes, Lin.
They won't check every take-out box that enters the plant.
That's right.
The guards never check them.
Once the printing process starts,
no one is allowed to leave.
We'll have our meal in the plant.
I've never seen the guards check the take-out boxes.
So, I think a plan to smuggle the phone
in a take-out box
seems plausible.
However,
to take photos of the exam paper in the trash room
is not that easy.
Once we start the printing process,
the trash room will be locked up.
It'll be unlocked when they take out the shredded papers.
Is there a way to open the room while printing is going on?
Is that the control room?
CONTROL ROOM
There's a key holder box right here.
All the keys to every room are kept in it,
including the trash room.
Can we sneak it out?
To be honest,
no one would notice
if one of those keys disappeared.
But the thing is, the keys are used every day.
If someone stole any,
Mr. Chai would find out within that day.
What if we sneak the key out
and return it before he finds out?
It's possible, isn't it?
It seems so.
Then, let's say I smuggle a phone to you into the plant.
You can get the key into the trash room,
and take photos of the exam paper for us, right?
Hey!
You told me that I didn't have to do such things.
You said I was just a consultant.
I won't do it. It's too risky.
Fifty grand.
Are 500,000 baht enough?
You're just kids.
How could you get so much money?
It's your call.
Take 500,000
and help us out
or take only 100,000
and end things here.
I can't afford to risk my career.
Are you really going to throw away 500,000 baht?
I'm only taking 100,000.
Pay me now. I'm leaving.
You can always change your mind.
We'll be waiting for you here.
Guys.
What if he tells someone else about our plan?
Hey.
I didn't pay 100,000 to just get caught.
Don't worry about it.
He'll be back.
Do you know what these are?
-Prawns. -Yes.
Raise your hand if you want some.
Open up.
-Is it good? -It's good.
Here. Hold it yourself, sweetie.
Why did you buy grilled prawns? It's pricey.
You should've saved up for her tuition.
School is about to start.
Did you ask for an advance paycheck again?
Mommy, Daddy, it's a dancing prawn.
Wow, a dancing prawn.
My prawn has a toothpick attached to its leg.
Let's dance.
It's 56 minutes 40 seconds.
Yours was 55 minutes 48 seconds.
That means if we do only half,
it'll take about an hour.
Bank.
How can you be so sure
that Fluke will come back to help us?
If he needs that money for his family,
he will come to us eventually.
People are willing to risk doing bad things
for those they love.
Pat and Grace must be back.
If you want me to take photos of the exam,
I won't be able to do it.
Once we start printing,
I can't leave the printing press for long.
It'll be suspicious.
I can only help you get the key to the trash room.
You'll have to find someone else to get in there and take photos.
That's not a problem at all.
I have a solution.
By the way,
am I still getting 500,000?
Lin.
Start looking for clients.
He's already asked for his pay.
I was able to find 800 clients on such short notice
because you guaranteed a score of 280 out of 300.
Keep your end of the bargain.
Don't ruin my reputation.
Sure.
Did you bring what I asked you to?
I've sorted out the clients' cards
according to the test centers they registered at.
But I've only brought you some of them.
Thanks.
However,
I'll have to ask you this
for the sake of my clients' security.
What are you going to use their ID cards for?
I'm going to use them to pass the answers.
How?
Everyone must bring their ID cards to the exam.
I'll put the answers on their card.
The GATT has two parts.
The first part consists of 20 analytical reasoning questions.
The answers will be numbers followed by letters.
I'll put them as tiny numbers
on the backside of the card.
The second part is English consisting of 60 questions.
It's a multiple choice.
I will change the answers into a barcode
to replace the original one on the clients' ID card.
How did you come up with that?
I believe…
you'll get full marks for the analytical reasoning part for sure.
By the way,
there are 800 clients
and you're giving me only a five percent share. Don't you think
that seems unreasonable?
Then how much do you want?
Each client pays you 50,000.
I'd like ten percent of it all.
Are you saying
that instead of two million,
you want four million?
Or…
do you want to find 800 clients yourself?
That's fine with me.
If I double your share,
what could you give us in return?
You sure know how to do business.
How about this?
I'll toss in a special service for you.
On the day of the exam, I'll get my team
to hand out the clients' ID cards.
The meeting spot will be in front of each test center.
My people will be on standby at the convenience store.
The clients can pick up their cards from those wearing my team t-shirt.
What do you say?
My service will probably make your job a lot easier.
That sounds great.
I'll raise your share to ten percent then.
Deal.
I like you.
After this job,
would you like to be a tutor in my network?
This will be the last time I do this kind of job.
What a shame.
Remember the code carefully.
Five, six, one, two, three.
These numbers signify the time we execute our plan on the exam day.
Starting from…
Five means 11:00 p.m.
The reps from the Testing Institute
will bring the original exam paper in.
Mr. Chai will escort them for security checks around the plant.
After that, they will take the exam paper out
and prepare a printing plate.
That process doesn't concern us.
All we have to do is wait.
Until…
Six is for midnight.
The take-out boxes will arrive.
We'll hide a phone in the take-out box that says,
"pork and shrimp fried rice, no veggies."
PORK AND SHRIMP FRIED RICE, NO VEGGIES
Fluke will have to find that box.
Get the phone out and hide it.
One means 1:00 a.m.
The printing plate will be ready.
Fluke will cut the electricity before they start printing.
The easiest way is to cause a short circuit.
Fluke will make use of the blackout
to sneak the trash room key out of the control room.
How can he do that?
In fact,
each employee isn't allowed to leave their working station.
Like, for me, I'm stationed at the printing press.
I can't get into the control room.
But with the blackout,
I can use it as an excuse with Mr. Chai
to go into the control room
and use the phone there to call the electrician
since it's the only phone available in the plant.
Not only will the blackout help us get the trash room key,
but it will also allow Pat to enter the place
as an electrician.
Fifteen minutes after the blackout,
Pat will disguise himself as an electrician and go in.
Once the power is back,
the printing machine will run normally.
Pat will ask Mr. Chai to use the toilet.
Fluke will wait there
to take Pat into the trash room.
He'll give him the phone to take photos
of the exam paper in the trash room.
From going to the toilet to reporting back to Mr. Chai,
it shouldn't take more than ten minutes.
No one will get suspicious.
But you must remember one thing.
No matter what happens,
you must send the photos to Lin and me
within the time given.
Two means 2:00 a.m.
If you send them later than that,
we won't have enough time to do it.
As for three, which means 3:00 a.m.,
Grace will start printing the answers.
Otherwise, we won't be able to distribute the answers
for the exam at 8:00 a.m.
This is the entire plan.
What about the phone?
Once Pat sends us the photos of the exam paper,
what will we do with the phone?
In the men's toilet,
the last stall
has a detachable drain cover.
The drain is big enough to dump the phone in it.
Once you're done with the phone,
leave the toilet
and report back to Mr. Chai.
Fluke will then lock the trash room
and get the key back to its place.
Hold on.
Well,
I think going in and taking photos of the paper
won't be a problem. I can do it.
But the thing is…
Bank.
Do I have to fix the electricity too?
Grace.
Your family's printing house must have an electrician.
I want an actual electrician to go in with Pat.
Wait.
Are you going to bring more people in?
We already have Fluke and Music.
Now you want to hire an electrician?
Bank.
You know the more people know about our plan,
the higher the risk
of us getting caught.
As of now,
our plan has too many holes in it.
It's necessary.
What am I supposed to do?
If our plan
requires more and more people in it,
it means things are out of our hands.
I think…
-we'd better call it off. -Lin.
Trust me.
Just one electrician won't be a problem.
This guy will be the last one we recruit.
Then our plan will work out.
Bank.
I know an electrician
who used to work for Nopphon.
I think it's possible to hire him.
Then I'll leave this matter to you.
The printing date
is Friday, the 26th of February.
We have two weeks
to walk through it and get ready.
Let's do it together.
FEBRUARY 26
I'm sorry.
What's wrong, babe?
What Lin said is right.
This plan is very risky.
If Lin had planned this herself,
it would have been more laid out.
And if we needed to take a risk,
Lin would do it herself.
But this time,
Bank is putting you on the front line.
I'm afraid, Pat.
Don't worry about it, babe.
We can rely on Lin to have our backs.
No need to be afraid.
Let's go.
Mom, I thought you had already gone to bed.
Where are you going?
I'm going to work.
I'll be back in the morning.
I know
what you're up to.
The last time you did it,
you got a lot of money.
There is some left, actually.
Why are you doing it again?
Stop doing dirty work like this, please.
Bank.
Are you going to earn money by doing laundry forever?
When are we going to have a better life?
I can take an exam and earn millions.
Isn't this way easier?
Bank.
I didn't raise you to become this kind of person.
You're right.
You didn't raise me to be like this.
But all my life,
you've already proved to me
that being a good person
is never enough.
The most important thing in life,
the only thing that truly matters,
-is money. -I'd rather have no money
than let you do bad things.
Really, Mom?
Are you okay with this life?
You work hard until your back hurts.
Still, you can't get treated at a good hospital.
Are you fine with that?
I can't attend a good school.
Are you okay with that?
I have to run around and deliver laundry after school.
Are you really okay with that?
Answer me!
Do you think it's okay?
FINAL TEST
Five, six, one, two, three.
Ten minutes to 11:00 p.m.
Five means 11:00 p.m.
The reps from the Testing Institute will arrive.
They're here.
Good evening, Mr. Phong.
Hello, Mr. Chai.
I'll take you to the plate-making room then.
They will start making the plate at midnight.
We have to wait for a while.
The food's here.
Six means midnight. The take-out boxes will arrive.
Grace.
-Are you done? -Almost.
Hey.
The pork and shrimp fried rice with no veggies is mine.
Hey, who took my order?
What the hell?
Grace.
Are you ready?
Wow.
You rock this look.
Wish me luck.
The take-out box with the phone will be delivered later.
Excuse me.
My mom forgot to deliver one more bag.
Just a second.
Ma'am.
There's another set of take-out boxes.
The order wasn’t complete.
-Is there anything else? -No, sir.
-No? -No.
There are more.
Thanks, ma'am.
If I have a chance to repay you, I'll do so.
How come there are so many today?
Why are you so curious? It must be for the clients.
PORK AND SHRIMP FRIED RICE, NO VEGGIES
We'll hide a phone in the take-out box that says,
"pork and shrimp fried rice, no veggies."
"Pork and shrimp fried rice, no veggies."
Fluke.
Yes, sir.
Come and help me out.
Tik took the day off today.
Come and get the plate ready.
Can I eat first, sir?
I haven't eaten either.
It'll only take a second. You can come back to eat later.
Yes, sir.
What?
You listen to me.
Keep an eye on this.
Don't let anyone take this. You can't eat it either.
Fluke!
-Yes, sir. -Hurry up.
-Stop worrying about food. -Yes, sir.
-Coming, sir. -I'm starving too.
Yes, sir. I'm hungry.
You're always slow. Come here.
Here.
It's done. I've got to go now.
What?
When you do it like this,
pew, pew, pew,
-it's not the same. -Hey.
Where's my take-out box?
You haven't eaten it?
I thought you finished it already.
I left it here.
James, you bastard. You…
I didn't know it was yours.
I thought everyone was finished, so I threw it away in the back.
Damn it.
We sent the take-out box in for a while now.
Fluke hasn't used the phone to send us a message yet.
It's 12:50 already.
We still have ten minutes.
-Hey, have you got the plate ready? -All set, sir.
Great. Everyone to your station.
Everyone to your station! Go!
At 1 a.m., Fluke must cut the electricity before they start printing.
To your station now!
James, get to your station!
You've already had your meal! Everyone to your station!
Get ready! Come on!
Fluke hasn't sent us any messages.
Did something happen to the phone?
ROONG RUEANG ELECTRONICS
That's the electrician I've hired.
The electricity must be cut off at 1 a.m.
We're about to start printing.
It's time! Start printing now!
The power is out.
Pat, get ready.
Bank.
Are you sure about having Pat go inside?
We don't even know what's going on with Fluke.
Bank.
You can do it.
It's time to go.
Pat.
If you feel like this plan won't work,
just go for plan B.
Abort and get out as fast as you can.
Save yourself first.
