Harry is a young American studying Mandarin in Beijing. Min-Jee, from Korea, is also studying Mandarin in Beijing. They meet and become friends. Harry calls his father and tells him about his new friend and how pretty she is, and Min-Jee tells her mom about her good-looking new friend. The parents are concerned and they decide to investigate, with surprising results.
