Son (Bao)

Son is a character who appears in the 2018 Disney/Pixar animated short, Bao. He is shown to be Mom's real son after it turns out that Dumpling was not her real son.
==Background==
Son is a young adult man who resembles Dumpling in the dream sequence. Just like what Dumpling wore in the dream sequence, Son wears a pair of glasses, a t-shirt and he has a small goatee on his chin. When Dad introduces Son to his mother, he tells him to talk to him to know where he went. Then, Son meets his mother and then happily reconciles with her as it is revealed that he is Mom's real son. After reconciling with Mom, Son attempts to make a dumpling by himself but his mother notices that he overfilled it with too much filling so his fiancée shows the two the perfectly-made dumplings she made.
==Appearances==
===Bao===
While often seeing being pictured in several portraits, Son does not appear until during the end of the short. When Dad sees his wife sulking all alone in her room, he tells her that her son is back. As the mother's real son arrives, he tells him to talk to her to know where he went. Upon encountering his mother, Son and his mother tearfully reunite and reconcile with each other eating pork buns together just as the mother and son share an embrace. The next day, Son is seen trying to make a dumpling for his family's lunch only for the dumpling he is making to be overfilled with too much filling just as his fiancée shows him and his mother the dumplings she made perfectly while Dad watches in approval.
During the epilogue, a montage is shown featuring Son and his mother picking the right watermelon while at a market, being taught how to stir fry just like his mother, followed by a family photo depicting an image of Son, his father, his mother, and his fiancée on it.

==Trivia==
*As evidenced by the production crew, Son is in fact his name and not just an alias."Making Bao" featurette (Pixar Short Films Collection: Volume 3, 2018, Blu-ray).
*Son's mother ignoring him when he first arrived implied that he and his mother had a fall out before he left.
