A bajillion dollars, and Devon's right here.
A hot hobo.
A major weirdo.
A party?
A spontaneous cartwheel if I feel so moved. (GRUNTS)
A very enterprising, mildly annoying young lady.
Aah! Go away!
AARON T: Hey!
ABBY AND PRIYA: Yeah!
Abby, hit me.
Abby, no! I'll stay home.
Abby, what the heck?
ABBY: And I'll beatbox. And I can bleach my hair, too.
ABBY: Not funny, Tyler!
ABBY: Shh. Come on, come on!
ABBY: That's so gross.
ABBY: What is wrong with you?
ABBY: Whoo! Yeah!
ABBY: You want a piece of me, huh? Come here!
Abby!
Abby...
About why this is happening.
Ah, fudgesicles! I gotta go.
All about that hustle, am I right?
All her hopes and dreams are pinned on me.
All I do is imagine the people
All I wanted...
All I'm asking for is one back.
All right
All right
All right
All right, all right
All right, all right,
All right, now, we gonna do the basic step...
All right, party's over! Everyone, go home!
All right, troops, listen up.
All right!
All right!
All righty, general admission, eh?
ALL: (CHANTING) Go, Tyler! Go, Tyler!
ALL: (GASPING) 4 Town!
ALL: (MUFFLED) Mmm hmm.
ALL: 4 ever!
ALL: Mei!
ALL: Red panda!
ALL: Whoo! PRIYA: Yes.
ALL: Yeah!
ALL: Yeah! Go, go, go!
ALL: Yes!
Am I the only one who sees the danger here?
An epic amount of food.
An inconvenience.
An overachieving dork narc.
And $200? For what?
And a lot of us never let it out.
And Aaron T. and Aaron Z.
And baby, you got it
And check it, they'll be cranking open the SkyDome
And clean them regularly.
And coming out women.
And do drugs all day!
And ever since I turned 13, I've been doing my own thing.
And finally become your true self.
And free!
And herbal tea. For cramps. It helps relax your...
And I can never survive a minute apart
And I can never survive a minute apart
And I felt it. It's very soft.
And I just want you to be honest with me.
And I will not hesitate to do
And I'll be with you every step of the way.
And I'm proud of you.
And if I taught you that...
And it gives her the strength to stay calm.
And it's not worth jeopardizing your life over.
And mostly painless.
And nobody else could make me feel this way
And not just the dudes either.
And nothing's gonna stop this train from... (YELPS)
And now 4 Town?
And now, you get to experience them live!
And panda all over the place.
And performing under a red lunar eclipse.
And return the red panda spirit
And save her family from ruin.
And singing him lullabies every night!
And some sides are messy.
And sorry I'll never be like you!
And step three...
And that you're kind of a perv.
And the more you release it,
And the only one that's home to the great red panda.
And the ritual will fail.
And then we'll bounce. Easy peasy.
And then you'll be bound to it forever,
And then you'll be cured for good.
And they passed it to theirs.
And things at the temple have never been better.
And this circle is the door.
And this community.
And we are not bringing any presents.
And we have to do it together.
And we will take care of everything.
And we're still a hundred short!
And what was a blessing became...
And why are they called "4 Town"
And you cannot fail.
And you know why, it's me Robaire
And you look amazing!
And you will too.
And you've taken advantage of her.
And your body
And your creepy temple, you freak!
And your hot uncles!
And, baby, I did it on my own
And, baby, I did it on my own
And, baby, I did it on my own
And, baby, you got it
And, oh, my gosh, you guys,
ANNOUNCER: Are you ready?
ANNOUNCER: You've heard their hits,
Anyway, thanks for all the gifts,
Anyway, who cares what stupid,
Are we allowed to boy girl parties?
Are you a triangle? 'Cause you acute!
Are you a werewolf?
Are you feeling okay?
Are you okay? Tap if you can hear us.
Are you serious?
Are you serious? You can't trust him.
Are you up?
Are, like, really talented, too.
At controlling the panda.
At least according to the Toronto Transit Commission.
AUNT 1: Eat. You need your strength for the ritual.
AUNTIES: Oh! LILY: Oh, my goodness!
Aunties? What are you doing here?
Aw, Mei.
Aw! It's our love.
Awesome. Just leave them by the sink.
Awooga! (GASPS)
Because it happened to me.
Besties, assemble!
Blaming me!
BOTH: Always.
BOTH: Oh! What...
BOY 2: Come on, new guy, just keep on going!
BOY 2: Mei! BOY 3: Hey, Mei, what up?
BOY 2: Oh, snap! They're coming!
BOY: Hey, what's up?
BOY: Is this part of the show?
BOY: It was just getting good!
BOY: Whoa, what is that?
BOY: Yeah, dude, let's go! Push it, dude! Come on!
Breakfast is ready!
Bring it, Lee!
But a concert?
But any strong emotion will release the panda.
But are so hard on yourself.
But being 13 means I'm officially a grown up.
But each time you do, the stronger it gets.
But everything's fine.
But I can't ask my mom. I'm a furry ticking time bomb!
But I did.
But I don't want you to!
But I held her in until the fifth...
But I like cleaning.
But I promise, nobody will notice a thing.
But I think I'll go to bed early. (CHUCKLES)
But I'll be fine.
But I'm a monster.
But it'll cost you one...
But it's going to be fine. I overcame it
But it's too soon.
But losing you guys feels even worse.
But maybe she's slowing you down.
But nothing stays the same forever.
But over time,
But she's like a magical bear?
But that doesn't mean doing whatever I want.
But the red panda took that away.
But the ritual. I'll let everyone down!
But they don't turn my tummy
But they don't turn my tummy The way you do
But they don't turn my tummy The way you do
But they don't turn my tummy The way you do
But this is grade eight.
But this is once in a lifetime.
But we are going to get through this together.
But we only have enough
But what are you doing? What if you can't turn back?
But you should've seen your mom.
But you're the light of my life
But your grandma, uh, she's from old school.
But... (GASPS SOFTLY)
But... it isn't true.
Buzz off, jerkface. I'm busy.
Bye, Mom! Bye, Dad!
Calm down, Mei.
Can't you just get one afternoon off?
Can't. It's cleaning day.
Change your identity.
Check out Number 12. He's got delts for days.
CHEN: Make room for your elders, Mei Mei!
CHEN: That's it?
CHEN: We're trying.
Chill.
Clap, clap, clap, clap your hands
Come back!
Come in.
Come on, chop chop! Five, 10...
Come on, guys, keep going.
Come on, guys! Stir the porridge. (GRUNTS)
Come on, Mei Mei.
Come on, Mei. It'll clear my mind.
Come on.
Coming!
Cool, great, thanks.
Cool. Oh, uh, Jade Palace is on tonight.
Crap! You guys better go.
Crass?
CROWD: (CHANTING) 4 Town! 4 Town! 4 Town!
CROWD: Four, three, two, one!
Dad?
Dang. He is working you.
Deal.
Deforestation.
Destroy her with your big butt!
Devon, my precious manly man.

Did it on my own, yeah
Did it on my...
Did the red peony bloom?
Did you make this?
Did you see how she was in the temple?
Did you, like, work out this morning?
DJ: (ON RADIO) All right, homies, next up is 4 Town.
Do you know how dangerous this is?
Do you want a snack?
Don't be silly. We're already on the way.
Don't blow it.
Don't forget that plus or minus, or I promise you,
Don't just stand there!
Don't let her out of your sight.
Don't load up on junk.
Don't look at me! Stay back!
Don't look at the notebook,
Don't look at the notebook, don't!
Don't talk about my family like that!
Don't worry, Mei Mei. I'll get everything you need.
Dude, keep it together.
Dude, what about your mom?
Eat up, little one. Oh, you're so hungry.
End of story... (SLURRING)
Especially Mei Mei.
Especially my mom.
Especially the red panda.
Eventually.
Ever since, the red panda has blessed our family
Every last loonie outta those kids.
Every single thing they ask.
Every time you say
Everybody clap your hands
Everybody just stop and stare
Everybody, it's just me! Shut up!
Everyone, go home!
Everything okay? I thought I heard...
Evil Tyler or anyone else thinks?
Exactly.
Excuse me!
Excuse me?
Excuse me.
Eyes on the balls, guys!
Faster! Faster! Whoo!
Fine! Get out of here!
Fine. I'll let you go.
First place in our hearts.
Food on your plate,
For a bunch of tacky delinquents?
For anyone.
For as long as the red moon shines,
For now. But if I get too excited,
For when they came of age.
Forget my mom.
Forget that. 4 Town's coming to Toronto!
Forget that. I need lunch. I'm starting to black out!
Forget your money, and forget you!
Found him at Tyler's.
From where it came!
Genetic thingy I got from my mom.

GRANDMA: Stop! Get a hold of her!
GRANDMA: What happened?

Has that ever happened?
Have fun!
Have you seen my CD?
He looks like a hobo.
He said your mom went nuts.
He's not that cute.

Heavy rain from my cloudy eye
Heavy rain on a Saturday
HELEN: Don't let her go! MING: No!
HELEN: Good night, cuz. Try that tea.

How could she do this to...
How could she?
How could you be so, so...

How dare you take advantage of her!
How is this possible? What happened to your panda?
How many tickets?
How old are you? Thirty?
How was school today?
Huh?
Huh?
Huh? (EXCLAIMS) Uh...
Huh? (GAGS) Huh?
Huh. You sound like your mother.
Hurry up, everyone.
Hustle this panda and squeeze
I accept and embrace all labels.
I am not a...
I am not losing my daughter.
I am so sorry.
I can just take the streetcar...
I can't believe you girls would use her like this!
I can't miss 4 Town! We worked so hard!
I can't panda anymore. I'm sorry.
I can't. We need to see this concert.
I cited all my sources.
I couldn't bear to see that happen to you.
I couldn't do it.
I couldn't take losing it,
I do make my own moves, it's just that...
I don't got time to mess around.
I don't know what came over her.
I don't want to hear your apologies, okay?
I drove by your house 10,000 times last year
I drove by your house 29 times today
I found this.
I got it. Thank you. Bye.
I got so angry, and I lost control.
I got you, girl.
I guess you could call me...
I had sparklers. (GRUNTS) And she still said no!
I hate this! I'm slobby, I'm smelly.
I hate you!
I have a double jointed elbow!
I have ibuprofen, vitamin B, a hot water bottle, and pads.
I just have one teeny tiny favor to ask.
I just want to broaden my musical horizons.
I know and I'm sorry.
I know how hard it is to keep the beast in.
I know it feels strange, Mei Mei,
I know it feels that way.
I know my mom's worried, but sometimes she's just so...
I know you'll do what's right.
I know, it's a lot...
I know. But you've really changed
I lied, Mom!
I like boys!
I like gyrating!
I like loud music!
I love most in the whole world.
I love you, man!
I mean, she's a nice girl,
I mean... (SIGHS) It'll go away.
I never met nobody
I never wanted this for her.
I never went to concerts!
I only came to win the game Can't stop me
I put my family first!
I saved Wilfred.
I see you, Mei Mei.
I should report you to the police.
I stayed calm.
I think I'm getting carpal tunnel.
I thought I had more time!
I thought, if I watched you like a hawk,
I told you she was big!
I tried to be a good daughter!
I wanna talk to you, Lee.
I wanna throw a sick birthday party. An epic one.
I wanted it I went for it
I wanted it, I went for it
I wanted it, I went for it And baby, I did it on my own
I wanted it, I went for it And, baby, I did it on my own
I was born to do this.
I was mathletes champ
I wasn't.
I wear what I want, say what I want
I will report you for trespassing.
I won't go.
I won't, I won't! I promise!
I won't, Mother.
I... I hurt her.
I... I'm almost ready.
I'd see the signs and be able to prepare.
I'll be back before she even knows I'm gone.
I'll call you, I promise.
I'll do it.
I'll give you anything! Money?
I'll just go to sleep, and when I wake up...
I'll never not be your ride or die
I'll never not be your ride or die
I'll never not be your ride or die
I'll never not be your ride or die
I'll never not be your ride or die

I'm finally figuring out who I am.
I'm going to the concert!
I'm gonna ask you a few questions,
I'm gonna be your ride or die All right
I'm gonna hustle every day
I'm gonna let go and you're gonna be chill.
I'm gonna make it all the way Just watch me
I'm gonna need you to convince me.
I'm in, girl. We'll say it's a sleepover at my house.
I'm just really excited about math.
I'm just so sick of being perfect!
I'm keeping it!
I'm keeping it.
I'm making paper like it's origami
I'm Meilin Lee, and ever since I turned 13,
I'm Meilin Lee.
I'm never gonna be good enough for her.
I'm never gonna let you cry Oh, cry, don't cry
I'm never gonna let you cry Oh, cry, don't cry

I'm paying for the red panda, not this garbage! Deal's off!
I'm scared it'll take me away from you.
I'm seventeen.
I'm shutting this down,
I'm sorry!
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. It's all my fault.
I'm telling your mothers!
I'm your mother.
I've been, like, obsessed
I've got 50 years' experience as a shaman. (CHUCKLES)
I've never met nobody
I've never met nobody like you
I've never met nobody like you
I've never met nobody like you
I've never met nobody like you
I've never met nobody like you
I've never met nobody like you
If there are five of them?
If they don't trust us anyway, then what's the point?
If you can pass the gauntlet.
If you want mad skills You can share with us
If you're there, everyone will come.
If you're too exhausted to enjoy it?
Illegal throw! You're out, Lee.
In fact, she loved them so much
In Toronto. And the most unique.
Instead of honoring a god, we honor our ancestors.
Into Mei Mei's head, parading her around.
Into one of these.
Is it a fever? A stomach ache? Chills? Constipation?
Is it gone?
Is it on?
Is it starting? It's starting!
Is that the sketchy clerk from the Daisy Mart?
It cannot happen.
It doesn't matter what. I like Tony Bennett,
It feels so good to let it out. So free.
It is! He's wrong! Look! The 18th, Toronto!
It must be so difficult
It picks up so much dirt, it's bananas!
It was all me!
It was my idea to hustle the panda.
It was quite destructive.
It was wartime. The men were all gone.
It'll all be worth it.
It'll be on me. The snacks, the tunes...
It'll come right back... Ow!
It'll do. At least breakfast is free.
It's a trap!
It's almost time to start the ritual.
It's easy. When I start to get emotional,
It's fine. You'll move to another city,
It's going to be okay.
It's gonna be galactic, for sure.
It's happening, Robaire Junior!
It's her life. Now move.
It's just some, you know, inconvenient, uh,
It's Mei! Calm down, all right?
It's not all about me, you know?
It's not enough!
It's not mine.
It's nothing to be embarrassed about.
It's nothing. Just a boy. He's no one.
It's okay, everybody be quiet!
It's okay. We can do it again.
It's only temporary, Mei Mei.
It's them I don't trust.
It's this Friday.
It's time.
It's time.
It's to make room for it, live with it.
It's true
It's true
It's true. And if Mei Mei's panda
It's, uh... (CHUCKLES)
Jesse's your soul mate.
JIN: (ON PHONE) Is it the woman thing?
JIN: Dinner's ready.
JIN: Don't worry. We'll get through this.
JIN: Somebody call emergency!
Jin. Jin, get home now. There's been an emergency.
Jin. Jin! It's happening!
Just a little hit! It's so cute!
Just be the calm,
Just don't get rid of all of it, you know?
Just follow my directions and breathe.
Just get off of me. Please.
Just go. Go become women without me.
Just leave me alone.
Just like me.
Just one last time.
Just trust me on this.
Just...
Just... (SIGHS)
