Lisa: What if we have a girl?
Charles: Sorry?
Our baby, if she's a girl,
what do we call her?
Well, Phillip for a boy,
after my grandfather, so...
What was your grandmother's name again?
What if we name her Mimi?
(scoffs)
You sure? I mean...
Wouldn't that be...
awkward?
What are you trying to say, Charles?
Come on, Lis, you know what I mean.
Oh, I know what you mean.
I'm not allowed to name our baby after my sister,
because we got the misfortune
of her killing herself on her wedding night.
That's not fair.
It's true, isn't it?
We're cursed.
It's what everybody is saying,
and now if I want to honor Mimi's memory,
then I'll just add on to our family's bad qi.
Lisa, please, don't get upset.
Remember what the doctor said?
Why did you do it, Charles?
