Seth: I thought that was just because he was getting old.
Ash: If only that were true. Someone claiming to be a social worker went to his village. She ate with him, talked with him, helped him buy groceries, acted like she was his friend...
Seth: ...I think I can guess where this is headed.
Ash: My grandpa's eyes are bad, you know? He has trouble seeing the ATM screen. Soon, that special friend started helping him with his finances. Two days later, his life savings vanished, along with his so-called friend.

赛司：我以为是因为他年纪大了的关系。
爱许：真是这样就好了。有个自称社工的人跑去他的村子。她跟他一起吃饭、跟他说话、还帮他买些食品杂货，就像他的朋友一样……
赛司：……我想我可以猜到接下来发生的事了。
爱许：我爷爷的眼睛不好，你知道吧?他看不清楚自动提款机的屏幕。不久，那个很特别的朋友就开始帮他处理财务。两天后，他一生的积蓄就跟他所谓的朋友一起消失无踪了。
