(dishes clinking) - So, my daughter and her boyfriend are finally moving in together.

I'm so glad she's finally dating someone with a career.

No more DJ and men who ride skateboards.

- [Family Member] Do you think they're gonna get married?

- They better.

It's not like she's getting any younger.

(video game beeping) I keep telling her, start focusing on your career.

Just have some kids, I will take care of them.

- [Family Member] Maybe she can freeze her eggs, I heard people do that now.

- [Child] Why do you keep staring at that girl over there?

- What girl?

- Do you have a crush on her?

- No.

- You're so immature.

- It's terrible.

Ah, thank you.

Hey Maggie, how are your college application going?

- Fine.

- Oh, what is that one school you were talking about?

Um... - Sarah Lawrence.

- Ah, ah, yes.

- The lesbian art school?

- It's a liberal art school.

- I mean, it's basically the same thing.

- [Maggie] No, it's not.

- What about Wellesley?

You know that's where Hillary Clinton went, right?

- Yep.

- [Family Member] I think with your grades, you have a really good shot.

- Oh, and it's not far away from MIT and Harvard.

Hey, maybe you can meet some nice boys over there.

- I'll think about it.

(water splashing) - Hey.

- Hey.

- How's your dinner going?

- So boring.

- [Celine] Same.

- I feel like all my family ever wants to talk about are colleges and boyfriends.

- Do you think they actually care about that stuff, or they just don't have anything else to talk about?

- Probably both.

Well, I probably should get back to dinner.

- Wait, what's your name?

- Maggie.

- I'm Celine.

- Okay.

- Have you been upstairs yet?

(gentle music) - [Maggie] Why do Chinese restaurants always have fish tanks?

- Hmm?

Isn't it for like good luck or something?

- Yeah, or maybe Chinese people just really like fish.

- Yeah, maybe.

Wait, you're Chinese, right?

- Yeah, half.

- No way, me too.

- [Maggie] Really?

- Yeah.

I'm Chinese and Japanese.

- Oh, cool.

- Do you speak Chinese?

- Uh no.

No, my mom does, but she never taught me.

- Oh.

- What about you?

- I speak Cantonese, and Mandarin, and some Japanese.

- Oh, damn.

- It's whatever.

Do you see this one fish?

I think it's pregnant.

This one too.

- I don't know, I think it might just be fat.

(laughs) - Oh, yeah, maybe you're right.

So, you're here with your family?

- Yeah.

- Are you guys close?

- Uh, it's kind of hard to explain.

- Do you wanna try?

- I just don't think they know me.

- [Celine] What do you mean?

- Like they're always trying to get me to be some version that I don't wanna be, instead of actually trying to get to know me.

- Yeah, I get that.

- Really?

- Totally.

I kind of feel like Asian parents are gonna be disappointed in you no matter what.

So, at some point you kind of just have to decide am I gonna be miserable and blame them for it?

Am I just gonna do what I want, let them figure it out?

- You don't think that's selfish?

- It might be, but I'd rather be selfish than miserable.

- Yeah, I guess I would be too.

- What?

- Nothing, you're just really pretty.

- What?

- Sorry.

Oh, I don't know why I said that.

Sorry.

- No, no, it's okay.

Do you really mean that?

- Mean what?

- Nevermind.

- Okay yeah.

Yeah, I did.

(gentle music) - Where have you been?

- The bathroom.

(gentle music) (upbeat music)
