0:11 Morning honey! Morning sweetie! Ugh...! What's wrong? My neck hurts so much today. I told you not to sleep with a high pillow. My knees hurt too. I feel like an old man. Maybe because you're... old? I'm only 28! Your body is saying something different. I have a checkup at Dr. Granger's today. I can call to see if I can make an appointment for you, too. Alright... I don't have any plans today anyway. Okay. I'll call her office after breakfast. Do you want some coffee? Yes please. Milk or sugar?
0:58 No thanks. I'm trying to stay healthy. Good choice. Do you want some eggs? Actually, I prefer fried chicken. For breakfast? Yeah. What’s wrong? Probably your definition of "healthy," honey. Thanks for waiting. I have your test results here. So, do you know why my body hurts? Well, Mr. Miller, your body fat is quite high. That's why your body is in pain.
1:43 Really? Is it that bad? What do you usually eat? Donuts, burgers, pizza, hot dogs, but mostly fried chicken. Those kinds of food are bad for your body. For now, please stop eating them. Stop eating them?! Then how can I survive?! You can, honey. Look at me! I don't need any junk food. I'm fine and healthy. Actually, Mrs. Miller, you're not... really healthy. What do you mean? You don't eat enough. Your results show you're missing some vitamins. But... I don't want to get fat. Eating properly won't make you fat.
2:29 Listen, both of you have awful diets. If you continue these diets, your health will get worse later. So, what should we do? I'll give both of you new diets. You must follow them for at least one month. Ugh... I'd rather run 10 miles a day than give up fried chicken. Oh, good news - you will have to run too. But not 10 miles. Ha ha, you don't know how much he hates running! You too, Mrs. Miller. Me? Why? Changing your diet alone can't make you healthier. You need to exercise too. Running is a good exercise. Well, at least I don’t have to suffer this diet and exercise alone.
3:29 So, when should we start this... healthy diet and exercise plan? ... Tomorrow? Isn't that... too fast? No. We should do it as soon as possible. We'll go running tomorrow morning. What time do we have to get up? 5 AM. There goes my sleep. Don't be a baby. I'm not. At least a baby gets to sleep at 5 AM. Honey, this is for your health. Do I really have to run, though? I go to the gym in the afternoon. Isn't that enough? Nope. We can trade if you want. You cook, and I go to the gym. No thanks. I might fry chicken out of old habit.
4:16 Yeah, speaking of that, I'll have to cook your dinner with less oil. Hmm... Maybe grilled chicken will be good. What about breakfast? Dr. Granger said I can have eggs, bacon, and toast. You? Oatmeal with fresh fruit and nuts. Maybe I'll just run instead of eating breakfast because that sounds awful. Jim! What are you doing? Get up! Five more minutes, babe. I'm so tired.
5:02 No way! You promised yesterday. We're doing this together, remember? Ugh, okay, okay. I'm getting up. This is... so hard... I can't... even... breathe. Me too... but look around us. What do you mean? See all those people? They seem to run every day. Yeah, and they all look so fit and healthy. If they can do it, you can do it, too! You sound like my boss when he wants me to do him a favor. Except that I’m doing us a favor.
5:48 Look at them! You must agree they have amazing bodies! How can they make it look so easy? We'll get there too. The most important thing now is that you and I - we - have to finish our run. I will try my best! Yeah! Think about the delicious breakfast waiting for us at home! That oatmeal with fruit and nuts? But I want a hot dog from the stand over there…
6:40 Hey, Jim, do you want to grab a beer after work? Not today, man. I have to go to the gym. Oh yeah, your new exercise plan. Good for you. Good? I don’t even know if I can last a week. I feel you. I used to be a bit heavy too. You?! No way! I was once 40 pounds heavier than I am now. What did you do? Same as you. Better food and daily exercise. Man, I was hoping for something easier… like more sleep and coffee. Ha ha, I wish! But those help, too. Be honest with me, Tom, does it ever get easier?
7:27 Well, the first two weeks are the hardest. But after that, it will get better and easier. You won't feel so tired. Two weeks? My legs will quit before I do. Give it time. You might even start to enjoy it. I hope I enjoy it like I enjoy fried chicken. Hi honey, I'm home! Hey! How was the gym today? It was good. Me, not so much. Oh no, are you okay?
8:13 My arms are really sore. I think I pushed too hard. Yourself? No, the barbell. Well, that just means the exercise is doing its job. A warm shower might help. Yeah, probably. How was your day? Well, I went to a yoga class this afternoon. Really? Was it good? It was harder than I thought. I couldn’t even touch my toes. Don't worry, honey. You'll get used to it soon. Oh, look at who’s talking. Weren’t you the one complaining about exercise yesterday? Well, I realize this is all for our own good. I'm getting used to it now.
8:59 I'm glad to hear that. Now, why don’t you take a shower while I get dinner ready? Perfect! What’s for dinner? Grilled chicken and salad. Haiz… I guess it’s going to take me a lot longer to get used to this... healthy food. So, dinner wasn’t too bad, was it? Yeah, it was better than I expected. I thought nothing could beat fried chicken. That’s because you used to eat nothing but fried chicken. You’re… not wrong. So, what’s for dinner tomorrow?
9:48 Salmon and mashed potatoes. Well, I can’t wait to try that! I just hope I survive yoga class tomorrow so I can make it for you. You will, honey. But first, we have to survive the morning run. Oh, right… that too. You know what? I thought this whole diet-and-exercise thing would be hard- It is hard. I’ll admit that. Yeah, but having you do it with me makes it… not so bad. Are you saying getting up at 6 to run isn’t bad? That part is bad. Doing it with you isn’t, though. Aww, that’s so sweet, babe! Six months from now, we'll be so fit and healthy.
10:36 Yeah. People will call us “that fit couple” instead of just the Millers. Exactly. So you’d better stick with this, or else it’ll be “Mrs. Fit and her husband.” Ha ha, let’s hope not! Anyway, it’s getting late, honey. Time for bed. Straight Tequila is always your favorite drink at a bar, huh? Does that mean you're upset? Yeah, I need something strong and something loud.
11:25 I just got dumped… over text. Can you believe that? Oh man… I'm so sorry. Eh, maybe I saw it coming. But it still stings. Bartender! Two shots of whiskey please. Coming right up. You know, I came here last year after losing my job. Sat right there. Same bar? Yep. Cried into a pint of beer. Then danced with a stranger and felt alive again. Maybe I'll cry in my whiskey tonight. Cry first, dance later. That's the rule.
12:11 Here you go. Cheers to heartbreak and healing. Cheers. And remember, the end of one chapter might just be the beginning of a better one. Thanks man. You always know what to say. I can’t believe it’s already 9 p.m. I totally skipped dinner. Me too.
12:57 Let's just grab some fast food and go home. Want the usual? Cheeseburger, fries, and Coke? Yeah… But maybe small fries this time. Are you trying to eat healthier? Sort of. After today's disaster at work. I feel like I ate three stress meals without eating anything. I hear you. I had three meetings back-to-back and spilled coffee on my boss. No way! Yup. Right before his big Zoom call. I thought I was getting fired. Wow…
13:43 That deserves a milkshake at least. You're right. I'm adding one. Let's make fast food a small reward tonight. These apples smell incredible. Do you want to grab some, darling? Yes. They remind me of my grandmother's kitchen. She used to bake apple pies every Sunday. That sounds sweet. Should we try to make one tonight? You bake?
14:30 Because I want to cook for you, I’ll try my best. Based on what I learned from my favorite cooking shows. Although, last time, my pie looked more like a pancake. I would still eat it. I mean, it is the thought that counts, right? Good morning! These apples are from our orchard. Would you like to try a slice? Sure! Wow… it is so crisp. Right babe? Wow. That's right. We will take full apples, please. That will be six dollars. Do you come to this local market every week?
15:16 Every Saturday and Sunday. Rain or shine. I even came during a snowstorm once. That is real dedication. These apples do not sell themselves. I used to come here with my mom when I was little. We would buy fresh flowers and jam. Is there anything we need to buy, honey? The blender. It broke down again. Are you serious?
16:02 That is the third home appliance that broke this month. First the microwave, then the coffee maker, and now this. I am starting to think our kitchen is cursed. Or maybe we stop buying the cheapest options every time. I told you the "Super Budget 3-in-1 Blender" sounded suspicious. It was on sale! 50% off. For a reason, clearly. Alright. Let's take a look at our future blender Hello there. Can I help you with anything? Yes please. We need a new blender. Preferably one that does not smell like burning plastic after five seconds.
16:47 You are in luck. This model is popular—quiet, powerful, and reliable. How long is the warranty? Two years standard. But many customers say it lasts five years or more. That sounds perfect. We will take it. Excuse me. I want to exchange a product. I bought this camera last week, but it stopped working after two uses. I'm sorry to hear that.
17:33 Do you have the receipt with you? Yes, here it is. Thank you. Let me check the system real quick. I just want to exchange it for the same model, if that is possible. Of course. It is still within our 14-day exchange policy. Was it making any strange noise before it stopped? No, it just suddenly shut off and never turned back on. It might be a faulty unit. That happens sometimes. I'll check with the stock team. Great. Good news. We have the same model in stock. Would you like to test it before taking it home?
18:20 That would be great. Here you go. Try pressing the power button gently. I got it. Let's hope this camera works just fine. Thanks for your understanding. I will package it up for you. And here's your new receipt. Thank you for being so helpful. No problem at all. Excuse me.
19:05 I think I'm lost. Could you help me find the train station? Of course. Are you looking for the central station or the smaller one near the museum? The central one. I was following Google Maps, but my phone just died. Oh no. You are actually not too far. Just go straight for two blocks, then turn left at the bookstore. Okay. Thank you so much. Are you traveling alone? Yeah. First time in this city. I was visiting my uncle, but now I am heading back to London. That sounds nice. Do you want me to walk with you part of the way?
19:52 I'm heading in the same direction. Really? That would be amazing. I'm terrible with directions. No worries. I once got lost in my own neighborhood when I moved here. At least you had working Wi-Fi, right? Not really. I cried in front of a bakery. That makes me feel a bit better. By the way, there is a great little coffee shop near the station. If you have time, you should grab a drink before your train. Sounds perfect. You've seriously saved my afternoon. Without you, I will end up asking all of the residents for help. Not the worst way to meet people.
20:52 That was a lovely dinner, Mom. I still do not know how you get the turkey that juicy. Years of secrets and a lot of butter. A lot. I think I gained 5 pounds just smelling it. I ate three rolls and a leg. Do I win? You win a nap. Which is what I need right now. Not before dessert. I made your favorite pie, Lucas. Banana cream? Of course. With extra crust, just how you like it. Grandma, you're the real MVP.
21:38 What does MVP mean? Most valuable player meeting the top performer or biggest contributor in a game or competition? In this case, it's Most Valuable Pie-maker. I really love this family gathering. John. Where are you? John? What's up, honey? I'm upstairs. Can you come here? I need your help right now.
22:24 Honey, where are you? I'm in front of the door. What's up, honey? What are those? Some furniture you and I ordered together. Don't you remember? Yeah. I think I have some memory of it. Good. I can't move them inside. Can you help me, please? Sure. This is a man's job. I believe in you. I will help you after I change my clothes. Take it easy. I can do it myself.
23:12 You look so tired, John. Do you need to take a break? No, I'm fine. Wow. This is a nice table. We can put it in the reading room. Leave it to me. You should move that chair. Okay. Oh, God. Why is it so heavy? Let me help you with it. I'm home, honey. Okay, great. Change your clothes. I'm preparing dinner now. Let's see what we have today. Oh, is that lamb?
23:59 Yeah. And I'm making vegetable stir-fry. That's great. You have never cooked lambs before, haven’t you? Nope! This is my first attempt. Hope it's going to be great. How does it taste? It tastes a little bit weird. I think you didn't prepare the lamb thoroughly. It's a bit dry. Let me try it. Oh my... And the sauce is a bit too sweet. Okay, I see. It is not good at all. You did well, but I can help you fix it.
24:47 How can we fix it? We should add a little bit of lemon juice and chilies. It will be better. Okay. Now let's try it again. Wow. It's so much better. John, I think we should talk. Okay. About what, honey? About you and me. Why are you so serious? Did I do something wrong? No. Take it easy. I just wanted to talk about our weaknesses.
25:32 Then we can fix them together. Oh, you scared me. Okay, let's talk. Okay. I will start first. I'm not good at cooking. For sure. We both know that. And you? My health is not good. Remember when I moved that table? I couldn't do it alone, even though it is not heavy. Okay. What is your solution? We should help each other. I will exercise more to make my health better. You should remind me whenever I forget to work out. Okay. So I will learn how to cook. There are some cooking channels on YouTube. I think they will be useful.
26:19 And I can taste your food or help you sometimes. Okay. Deal. John. John. Wake up. Your alarm's going off. I’m so sleepy honey. I can’t even open my eyes. Come on. Today is the 5th day of morning exercise. Wake up. Okay. Okay. I think I should set more than one alarm. You will still go back to sleep if you don't have motivation. I know, I know. I'm up now.
27:06 Good. You still have 45 minutes to exercise. How about you? Will you make breakfast today? Yeah. I bought some ingredients yesterday. Okay, let's start our day. Sure. Why are you just pacing around? I am looking for the bacon. I don't know where it is. Bacon will be in the refrigerator always. If it's not there, we don't have it. I thought I bought some yesterday.
27:52 Are you sure? Let me check the receipt. Oh, no. I didn't buy it. What do you want to make? Just toast and fried bacon. Let's make eggs benedict But I don't know how to make it. Let me help you. Okay. Well, you are quite good at cooking. Yeah. When I lived alone, I always cooked for myself. While I wait for you, I will do some planks. How long can you hold it? Lately, it's been around a minute. Wow. Mine are only 20 seconds.
28:38 I can also exercise for 30 minutes without a break. You are so cool. I need to go to the gym for motivation. Great. Honey, I'm home. Honey. Hey, John. Why are you so late today? I went to the gym after work. Luckily, I still had time for it. Are you hungry? I'm still preparing dinner. It will take a while. Where did you go? Did you go jogging? To be honest, I cooked dinner once already. But it wasn't really good.
29:25 So I went to the supermarket again to buy some ingredients to make some other dishes. Did you walk to the supermarket? Yeah. I couldn't book a car. It was rush hour. But it's far away. Are you tired? I will help you prepare dinner. It's fine. I like walking. I'm so sorry. I tried to cook them well. That's fine, honey. We have had a rough day. Yeah. How is everything? What do you mean? The changing challenges in your family.
30:12 Ah, it's quite well so far. That's great. You know, we finally found that I have talent in sports. And John has good cooking ability. Oh really? I didn't expect that. Me too. Overall, it is a successful challenge. John is still lazy, but he tries to go to the gym at least twice a week. His health is getting better. How about you? I go to the gym 5 times a week And I'm also thinking about taking a martial arts class Wow. You're gonna be so strong Yeah, I am still learning to cook. My skill isn't that great but it is better day by day with John's help.
31:04 Do you want to take part in a cooking class? No, I don't think so. John knows many recipes and he can teach me. That's enough. Oh, you guys are so sweet.
