Nick Young So, what about us taking an adventure east?
[thinking for a minute]
You wanna get pork buns in the East Village. That's what it is, isn't it?
Nick Young I was actually thinking of further east.
Nick Young Like Singapore, for spring break? Colin's wedding. We've been dating for over a year now, and I think it's about time people met my beautiful girlfriend. Come on, I'm Colin's best man. Don't you wanna see where I grew up? Meet my family, my Ah Ma?
So, if you have all this family there, why are we staying in a hotel? Aren't good Chinese sons supposed to stay with their parents?
Nick Young Well, because A: I'm not that good a son, and B: I just want you to myself, just for a bit.
So your family is, like, rich?
Nick Young We're comfortable.
That is exactly what a super-rich person would say.
I thought I was here to meet your family, go to your best friend's wedding, eat some good food. Instead, I feel like I'm a villain in a soap opera who's plotting to steal your family fortune.
Nick Young What happened?
I mean, I met Amanda. She told me that everyone here thinks that I'm the evil person that prevented you from moving back to Singapore last year but, when I didn't even know you were supposed to come home.
Nick Young You have every reason to be upset.
I'm not done yet! There was also the gutted, bloody fish that Araminta's friends left for me in my hotel room on my bed next to the words 'Catch this, you gold-digging bitch'... written in big fat serial-killer letters.
Nick Young When we first met, you had no idea who I was, who my family were. You didn't care!
Yeah, I don't care about that stupid stuff.
Nick Young Well, exactly. You are so different from all of the women that I grew up with.
[on the plane]
Nick, what are you doing here?
Nick Young I'm flying back to New York with you.
Don't make this harder than it already is.
Nick Young I always imagined what me proposing to you would be like. You know what? I had it all planned out.
P Passenger
Right behind you.
Nick Young Don't mind me. I bring you to my favorite spot on the island. There's a hidden trail that I used to go to as a child. And there's a cove there that opens up to this beautiful lake.
P Passenger
[bumps into Nick]
Sorry, dude.
Nick Young Give me a second, coming through. When the sun hits the horizon, I get down on one knee. And the rest of the world would fall away. Because it would just be you and... Because it's just you... [to a passenger struggling with her bag] Sorry, I can help you with that. [to Rachel] Right, stay there. [to a passenger] Yeah. You too? Watch your fingers. Everybody okay? 'Cause I just need 30 seconds with this woman. Thank you. [climbs across seats] Coming through. Sorry. I know this is a far throw from a hidden paradise. But wherever you are in the world, that's where I belong. But I... [kneels] Rachel Chu... [holds out a ring] Will you marry me? And make me the happiest man in this world?
KC Kerry Chu
Yes! Yes! She will marry you!
Nick Young I love you, too.
This is gonna be some flight back to New York.
Nick Young Well, I was actually thinking about staying one more night.
[they kiss]
