Mother And Son

Remember what Confucius taught,
Always be kind.
Yes, Mother.
Always help the weak and the old.
Yes, Mother. I understand.
And always help those less fortunate than yourself
Yes, mother. Always.
[A jet passes by in the distance and the apparition of his mother fades away.
The child turns towards Tran-Do in a non-judgmental but puzzled voice.]
How did I become you?
