Faye: P’Atom.
(Atom strokes Faye’s head)
Atom: N’Faye.
Faye: Believe it or not, no one ever pats my head.
Faye: This totally breaks all the rules.
Atom: There, there…
Faye: There, there… Nong, come and pat my head.
Voice: Try doing it again.
Note: In Thai culture, the head is considered the highest and most sacred part of the body, so it’s not appropriate to touch or pat the head of someone older than you. Unless you have been given permission to do so.
