Hi-Tech Maidservant: EP 1 Caps Part 1

Before I start, Rin (Jui’s character) is Neeya’s bff from high school. After graduation, they went on  their merry own way–Rin went to study at a university in Chiangmai and graduated with a degree psychology. She specializes in overcoming traumatic life experiences. She is a motivator, a life coach. She is good at what she does. Neeya and her grandmother Chuen hire Rin to motivate, to change Nol into a better person. Rin’s family is having financial problems, they owe 4 million baht ($125,000USD) total, so she takes the job offer from Neeya and her grandmother happily, not knowing what to expect. And our story begins…the life coach and her most difficult assignment.

Three months have passed since Nol was ditched at the altar and we are introduced to Reuangrin, a top psychologist, an adviser. She is a charity event to raise money for maidservants–to give these people security and benefits. Rin changes from her beautiful evening gown to a typical casual maidservant outfit to match the concept of the event. Neeya’s grandmother Khun Ying Chuen is patron for the occasion; Neeya is there too with her grandmother for support.

After the speech, Rin sees Neeya and introduces herself happily. The old friends have not seen each other in years and they use to be very close. Neeya is happy that Rin can remember her after all these years. In a playful manner, Rin gives Neeya a compliment: “Though you have grown more beautiful after all these years, I can still remember you.”

Neeya introduces Rin to her grandmother. The three ladies went to the lounge area together for a chat.

As Neeya’s grandmother learns more about Rin, she becomes more interested. Seeing Rin dressed up like a maidservant, knowing that she has graduated with a degree in psychology, and Rin has worked with people with mental issues, the grandmother has this amazing idea. She wants to hire Rin to care for someone in her home who has suffered a traumatic life experience–of being heart-broken, of being dumped at the altar.

Dude is just depressed right now. This guy doesn’t do anything, he just drinks all day and doesn’t work.

The grandmother doesn’t want Rin to go in to her home as a counselor, she wants Rin to pretend to be a maidservant and observe Nol and try to reform him. If Rin went as a counselor, Nol would be totally against it. He is suffering from depression but doesn’t want help.

Neeya and Rin finds this whole matter nuts. They both think she is joking.

The grandmother:”I’m not joking, I’m speaking seriously. What ever the cost, I just want my Nol to return to being normal again–to be like a person again. That’s all. How about it? Can you do it?”

Rin doesn’t know what to say. She rejects the offer. It’s a strange proposition. She can do it if she came in as a normal counselor, but disguising herself as a maidservant–that is just too much.

After the chat with Khun Ying Chuen and Neeya, Rin walks home happily and receives a call from a family member. From smiles to frown, Rin makes an appointment with Khun Ying Chuen and Neeya immediately the next day. Her family is in financial debt and has 3 months to pay it off.

Not knowing the debt amount, Khun Ying Chuen agrees. Then when she learns of the amount, she unintentionally spits out her drink. HA. Though it’s 4 million baht, she is still willing to hire Rin for 3 months. Helping Nol has no price tag.

Rin most enter the house as a maidservant and reform Nol.

First day! Knock, knock. No one answers. The door is not lock, she goes in.

Look it’s the grizzly man! HA. In the background we hear Neeya’s voice over when Rin sees Nol for the first time: “my brother is the nicest person with the best personality, and he is handsome too.”

What a contradiction. He looks like a dejected freak, a criminal, a guy who hasn’t slept for 3 months.

Rin introduces herself. As a response, Nol yells at her with his cracked loud voice: “Did I ask you?!!!”

She puts the water tray she brought in with her down, she notices the room is completely dark.

Time to open the blinds and we hear Neeya’s voice over again.

“My brother is a nice person, you don’t have to be scared”

Yea right! She should be scared because he yells at her. “Who told you to open the blinds? Get out of here!”

In a fright state, she quickly puts down the blinds and hops over to Nol’s side to ask if he would like anything to eat.

Apparently ‘no’ because he yells at her again. “If I want to eat or not, it’s my business. Get out of my sight right now!, ” he orders.

She tries to persuade him again. He picks up a glass cup and threatens her. “You want to leave nicely or a with a broken head? HUH?”

She begs for more time, he throws the glass cup at her and dodges in time. Rin is scared straight. She wants to quit.

As she running away, Neeya and her grandmother pull her back. They beg her to stay.

Rin is scared. “Your brother scolds like a monster.”

As they are talking, Neeya’s mother interrupts them. Neeya’s mother Wan doesn’t like Rin very much . Her first impression of Rin is that she is a maidservant, who doesn’t know how to say ‘hello’ to her employer properly.

After being introduced to Khun Ying Wan, Neeya and her grandmother take Rin for a chat at a cafe to regroup.

Neeya and her grandmother try to persuade Rin to stay. The grandmother pours Rin a cold drink.

The grandmother:”I can assure my grandson does not have that type of personality.”–yea he does, he threw a glass cup at her. He is violent.”

Neeya:”That is correct. Since he had his heart broken, he just drinks now.”

The grandmother:”Don’t mind the crazy people and don’t blame the drunk.”

Rin doesn’t agree, she can’t do it.

Rin:”Khun Yai ka, if he is that afflicted, I don’t think I can help him.”

The grandmother has faith in her. “I think you can. Things like this take time. I’m not in a rush either.”

Neeya agrees. Rin has 3 months, Neeya has faith she can do it. Rin still feels unsure.

Money will sway her. To tempt her to stay, Khun Yai Chuen will give Rin 1 million baht ($31,250 USD) forehead as a bonus.  Very tempting.

They will start of slow, Khun Yai Chuen will give Rin little task to complete. The first task  is to have Nol eat at the dinner table for 3 days.

Time for Nol’s lunch, time to complete her first task.

In the kitchen, Khun Bua, the head servant lady prepares Nol’s lunch. She wants servant girl On to take it up. On is scared, she doesn’t want to do. When Rin offers to take it up, On beams with happiness.

Rin notices the soup is cold, she wants Khun Bua to warm it up. In unison, On and Khun Bua objected. Nol can never have hot soup. Rin shrugs her head and found it very strange. She didn’t say anything and took the food up. Before entering the room, she gave herself a pep talk. “Relax Rin. You have a degree in psychology. To get to know someone’s feeling, you have to get to know them first. We love them, we are the same as them. We are the same as them.”

Then she revealed her true intentions, “For the 4 million baht.”

Then she corrected herself: ‘That is not right, we love them. We love them.”

She brings the food in, he doesn’t want it.

Nol:”Take it away!”

She didn’t hear what he said and asked him: ‘huh? What did you say?”

Nol in a louder, angrier voice: “I told you to take it away, I won’t eat it!”

Rin:’You need something to warm your stomach.”

He turns his chair around to face her. He wants liquor and he wants something to eat that goes with his liquor. Rin objects.”You definitely can’t have that. You need something that will nourish you. If not, you will won’t be healthy. You won’t have energy to do anything. Lets do it this way, I can feed you.”–Wrong idea chick, dude is scary enough.

Nope! He is not having that. He wants his Alcohol.

“Why do you have to feed me? What do you see me as….—(They censored this part). You are  just a servant, you can’t give out ideas. It’s very annoying!”

Rin smiles it off and tries to get him to eat again. Just a few bites is good enough, she tells him. She mentions the soup. “It’s very delicious, very appetizing.”

Then Rin learns why Nol can never have hot soup. The soup is delicious aye, you can have some then. He pours the soup on her. Yep. Nice guy.

Rin comes back down, messy and smelly. Now she understand why Nol can never have hot soup.

With On and Khun Bua are surprised when Rin wants to try it again. She wants Khun Bua to heat up the soup, make everything steaming hot and delicious.

The second time around, the food is heated and smells deelish. To tease him, Rin eats it in front of the very hungry Nol. Every bite, she moans of food ecstasy like ‘god damn, this is the best meal she has never had.”

Nol is hungry, he wants some too. Rin looks up at him, “do you want to eat too?”

He says ‘no’ loudly. His stomach says otherwise. It growls.

Nol scolds his stomach. “You crazy thing, why did you have to growl at his moment.”

Rin notices and starts complimenting Khun Bua’s cooking and the food is absolutely delicious. Nol can’t take anymore and shout orders her to bring him food too! Someone crack. Task one completed.

Nol:”Get out and prepare me food like this too!”

Rin rubs it in. “But before, you said you weren’t hungry?”

Nol struggles to answer her. “errr!”

He stands up and quickly sits on his bed. “You just need to follow my orders. Or you a servant or not?”–what pride.

Not only does Rin need to get him to eat, he needs to eat at the dinner table, so she tells him: “I am your servant and I have to clean up your room. If you want to eat, you have to go sit at the dinner table, I will serve you there myself.”

He agrees.

As Khun Wan and Khun Chuen are chatting about Rin, they find Nol eating at the dinner table. WAH! She is good. Khun Wan was just complaining they had too many servants. She wanted to kick Rin out.

She wants her mother to quit well-wishing. Nol will not change. Before, Nol had many personal servants, different types who were hired to change him, but they never worked out. But Rin is succeeding when no one else could. Both ladies are startled to see Nol eating at the table. Rin is staying.

Later on that night, Rin goes to look for the servant’s bathroom. She needs a shower. She can’t seem to find it, she mistakenly walked into the main house. She mumbles to herself. “where is the bathroom?”

Then a voice tells her: ‘ahead, and turn left in front of the TV.’

Excitedly, she turns left, who does she see…NOL! Startled, she hugs the TV.

“Khun Nol ka, have you been sitting there long?”

Nol:”Long enough to see that you have a good figure.”

She tries to cover herself and crossed her legs.

Nol:”You don’t need to cover anything, I saw everything already.”

She panics.

Nol:”This is a house, not a racy catwalk. Another thing, my house has rules and regulations. To walk, to charm, don’t show if off shamefully.”

Rin:’Who is showing, who is seducing you, Khun Nol. I was just looking to find the bathroom for a shower. I  understand. A person who is perverted will always think in that way.”

Oh hell no, she just called him perverted.

Nol:”You’re taunting. You’re not a lightweight.”

Rin:’Lightweight or not,  your mother couldn’t carry me.”–wrong thing to say

Nol does not like to lose. “So you want to taunt!”

He slowly approaches her. She laughs uncomfortably.

“Since you claim that I’m  pervert who thinks about that kind of stuff….fine…I will do what they would do.”

She extends her arm to stop him. “What are you thinking of doing?”

Nol:”I want to know, if I pull this towel out, what will you do.”

Rin screams. “I don’t want to play anymore.”

Bye. She scurries away.

Nol laughs and says, “Do you honestly think I would be interested in a servant girl like you.”–damn he is a snob.

Back in her room, she curses him out calling him a perverted/ dirty, evil guy.

She turns around and sees a man in her room. Rin screams and starts throwing everything she can lay her hands on. Just when she is about to throw a fan at him, Khun Bua walks in and stops her.

Since she is a new servant, she shouldn’t be making such a ruckus. The guy agrees. She shouldn’t be scared, he’s gay! A flamboyantly gay too. He’s Nol’s driver.

He came up to see On. His name is “Look Ped”, which means ‘baby duckling”. WTF.

Though Rin apologized for hitting him, Look Ped did not forgive her. How dare Rin accuse him of being a rapist. Rin is not even his type! HA.
