Land of Spirits (Ai Chết Giơ Tay / Ai Chet Gio Tay)

Oh, good spirits, far and near!

Hearing my plea, thou shalt appear!

I humbly ask for your guidance

to find where the lost soul is in this instance.

What a sweet dream!

It is high time for a buoyant life.

To live is to be considerate, down to earth,

knowledgeable, respectful and adaptable.

My respect to the gods residing all around and the ancestors.

Please give me your blessing.

Please give me your blessing.

Seriously, this is such a mouthful!

Please give me your blessing.

Bless me with a full and happy life,

with inner and outer peace, always safe and sound.

Heaven please heed my call, grant us good weather.

Motherland please heed my call, grant us a safe place.

Today's a full moon, so I'll give you a cigarette as a bonus, Earth God.

Here!

You're a deity, so smoke moderately.

It would be awkward if you caught any lung diseases.

Clouds of smoke from burnt incense really bring out this place's charm.

Fire! Run for your life!

I'm burning alive! Run! Oh my God!

Manny!

This is the 175th time you splash water on me.

-Did I do something wrong? -Good Lord!

Today's full moon, Manny! Let me offer incense to the gods!

If you keep disturbing me, I'll light you on fire!

I didn't mean to. Many houses have burnt down recently.

The moment I woke up, I saw smoke everywhere,

so I thought our house was on fire.

This house is all we have.

If anything happened, we would become homeless.

Give me a break!

If you're that absent-minded, you should keep a memo pad.

I do, but the thing is I can't remember where I put it.

I'm speechless!

So you plan to hold the Water Festival every full moon?

Consider it a morning shower.

Shower what? Now my incense sticks are wet!

Give them to me, I will light them.

-Whatever. -Wait!

Have you burnt incense for your parents?

I have.

Someone is crying, get me my kit.

Okay.

Who is it?

Come get a bracelet that brings luck to your career, family, and love.

If you are interested, raise your hand!

What?

Lien Khanh! Why are you crying?

Calm down!

Spit the wormwood out and talk to me!

Spit!

Talk!

-Please leave, don't say anything. Leave! -Okay.

Please help me find my stuff.

Holy hell! This is not the lost and found.

-But you…? -Listen? You lose something.

You should go to the police.

They will help you, okay? I cannot help you.

But you are an adult, and adults are good at finding things.

How did you make that connection? Who told you that?

If you need an adult, go find your annoying sister.

Hey! What did you say?

Hey! Come in.

-What? -Take a seat! Then we'll talk.

Sit please.

-An incense stick for you. -What for?

You are such a devil. Speak of the devil and she appears!

What are you saying? No thanks.

-Lien Khanh? Let's go home. -No! Let him find my stuff!

Why are you asking for me? I have nothing to do with this.

For God's sake! Hey, he is not going to help you.

Look around! This house is as eerie as a shrine.

Aren't you scared?

Offensive! Do not say that about my house!

Lam, I think she is right.

Whose side are you on?

Your side, but the truth is the truth.

You have lived here since forever and now you say that?

Having lived here for so long, I know.

If you say so…

-So what? -There.

Nothing there.

-What? -Muting talisman.

-I still can speak. -That means you're hopeless!

Nonsense!

Look at all these talismans and amulets! He's crazy!

No, he does have magic. I saw it with my own eyes.

Hear her out!

Normies like you will never understand my true talent.

Your tricks only fool children!

What a buffoon, I have never seen such a terrible performance!

Who hides roses in their armpit?

Sister! That trick is very hard.

That is very ticklish.

You two may look down on it.

Of course that trick is for children.

I don't like to show off the real magic

to small children including Lien Khanh.

She should not see these things.

Real magic is proven to have

a negative impact on the health of infants and small children.

-So stupid! -Is it as stupid as your name?

It's so weird!

Your sister is named Lien Khanh, such a beautiful name.

Then you, Lien Thanh.

-That means rifle in Vietnamese. -Hey!

What was your mother thinking when she named you?

Do not drag my mother into this!

Fine. Sorry. Okay?

No!

-Then what do you want? -Find my thing!

Oh my God, not again! I can't!

Khanh! Go home!

-Go! Both of you! -Go!

It's too early for this!

If you get haunted or whatever, feel free to not find me!

Hey, can you unmute me?

Oh my God! I can talk! I can talk again!

Hey! Handsome ones!

Get a bracelet! It will boost your handsomeness.

Fake? No, it's real.

Real bracelets bring real beauty. You won't even need cosmetic surgery.

Here! Such a bustling place!

Pick one!

Didn't you pick it? Why don't you buy it? Not enough money?

My Goodness!

Hey, mister!

Gosh, why does everyone say my goods are fake?

Please buy something!

Oh God! You already had!

Hey, handsome.

I haven't said anything, you've already dismissed me.

Hey, beauties! Give me a smile!

Want some love-attracting bracelets?

What the hell? Why does everyone already have one?

Do they wear those to deter ghosts?

Hey! You are such a perfect match.

Dressing up this much for coffee? So fitting!

But something is missing.

You need these bracelets!

-Really? Let me see. -Right.

Honey! These two pearl bracelets are pretty.

-Let's buy one for you, one for me. -No. I can't wear it.

Hey! It fits you like a glove! Keep it! Buy it!

You don't like it? Okay, let me show you another one.

Honey! These two are gold bracelets.

Gold is our lucky element. Please! Buy them!

No! I don't think they suit you and nothing is, except this one.

-What? Show me. -Here you are!

This is the bracelet of the Love God with a fox spirit.

Once you wear them, your love will be deeper.

-Let me take a look. -You two will live happily ever after.

Honey! Oh my God! I love this one!

I don't have it yet. Buy it for me, honey. So pretty.

You have many already. Don't buy any more!

But I don't have this style.

Listen!

If you wear this one, you will be together forever.

Even when your child and grandchild are dead, you two would still be together.

See?

We will live happily together and even a long life.

We still live together even when our descendants are all in their graves.

-Honey! Please buy this one. -Don't believe this stuff.

-Come on! God! -Beg him! Make him buy it!

-Honey! Please! -No, I won't buy it.

I didn't ask for gold or diamonds. This one is cheap.

Buy it for me, dear.

Okay! Listen.

Who wants to buy, raise your hand.

No one wants to buy it. Please leave!

Well. He doesn't want to buy it.

Both of you need to agree on this.

You cannot buy only one bracelet. They come in pairs. Give it back to me.

Just a bracelet!

How big is your love that you cannot pay for a bracelet?

-You heard that? -Your love is smaller than a bracelet.

Well, best wishes to you two. Let's see how long your love lasts.

Ladies. Please buy something.

It's just me and him in this house.

He's as big as a whale, yet he always does light chores,

like flower arranging.

I'm as thin as a rake, yet, I have to do heavy chores.

That's why one is always fat and the other is always thin.

This teddy bear is so cute. Why was it thrown away? So wasteful!

Staggering walk. Woeful cry.

Spirit possession!

Hey, loony Lam!

Why are you chanting and striking the wooden bell at midnight?

-It's midnight, you know? -I'm sorry.

Are you chanting for your grandfather?

If so, go home and chant all you want! Go!

Too noisy! I'm watching a football match here!

Goal! Yeah!

Oh God!

He asks me to keep silent while he's watching a football match.

Such a nut!
