could willy be an enigma with 2 powers (strength/persuasion and something to do with time)? and does Chris have…
I speculated a while back that Chris may have the ability to block Pete.
There's a good possibility that Willy may be an Enigma. We've seen either super speed or time manipulation (when Babe was in the hospital) and super strength (the gym scene in Ep 5), so far.
We may have also seen Willy's super speed or time manipulation when Babe was hit by the car. Even though Babe confirmed Willy was training with his team at the time of that hit and run, I'm pretty sure that was Willy who was driving the car. For him to be in two places at once would require some kind of special ability.
OOOOHHH........new idea.......does Willy have the ability to temporarily clone himself?
personally I think his ability is taking other peoples abilities. remember when Charlie crashed his car, right…
You have to also factor in the fact that Charlie had taken that ability-erasing drug, too. While there seemed to be no reaction at first, it may have been delayed and only hit him during the race.
2) Chris specifically muttered "Way's birthday, huh?". Notice he didn't say "Our birthday" which he would have if they were twins (separated at birth or otherwise).
3) OR....... Chris and Way ARE twins, but born one day apart. That's the only reason Chris would make that distinction.
4) Notice Chris only looked at one file - it had pics of some of Tony's "kids" from years ago. Chris looked at a few, but stopped cold and stared when he saw one specific boy. Then he quickly logged off. He didn't even download anything to a thumb drive.
All of that ^^^^^^ makes me think Chris is not working FOR Tony. I think he is looking for information about one specific child / adult Alpha. So he's working for Pete, but with his own agenda.
5) Even with all of the booty calls, I think Pete knows something is off about Chris. I think Chris actually has the ability to block Pete's power to sense truth / lies, and that has made Pete suspicious of him.
But since Chris is a valuable researcher, he's letting Chris continue in the lab and just keeping an eye on anything Chris is doing outside of work hours.
6) I have a feeling Pete knew Chris would be snooping, so he's probably got a camera in his office and recorded Chris breaking into his computer.
7) A few episodes ago Tony said he had a mole there at X-Hunter.
8) In my opinion, the mole candidates are Kim, Kenta, Sonic and Dean.
9) Personally, of those four ^^^^^^ I think Kim and Kenta are unlikely. Surprisingly, I think Sonic is a real possibility. And Dean ALWAYS seems sus to me.
^^^^^^^^^^^ All my own conjecture. Nothing proven at all.
I think you're referring to a four part mini series called 'Infidelity, It’s a Disease' where what you're saying…
I haven't seen that one.
I was actually referring to a Chinese YouTube series called Secrets Happened on the Litchi Island (and the subsequent "extra" series of 13 short episodes that served as a kindof follow-up story about the same couple).
It's simple, but really lovely. Again, the director did give the actors some basic instructions, but she also let them have autonomy as far as some of the things I mentioned. And she just had them do some things over if she felt it needed tweaking.
I loved the interaction between TK and Victor in Ep 2.
It actually felt like I was watching two real people navigating their language barrier in a fun way. It felt natural, and it felt like the way real people get to know each other. That was really refreshing. And to me, it wasn't boring at all.
I recently watched a Chinese BL (yes, really) where the director gave the actors the basic scene and what she wanted to happen, but she let them find their own method of completing the goals in the scene. They figured out their own body language, their emotions, their responses to each other, their blocking in each room.....it was SO good. She only made a few modifications here and there. That was so, so, sooooo different from the acting in most Thai BLs. It felt WAY more natural and engaging. I wish more Thai studios would try that method of directing.
I can't stand Shane's mom. She is so manipulative.
And her statement to Shane: "Jin and Name are already grown. Cheese can stay with her father. I love YOU most anyway." - meaning the most out of all 4 of her children - is just wrong. No mother should ever say she loves one child more than her other children.
Just watched this deeply beautiful short film. It packed a lot into just 36 minutes. The acting, directing and cinematography were very well done.
My husband and I are not a gay couple, but this year we'll have been married 35 years. I think often about how young we were when we first met, and how old we are now. About the things we've been through, both good and bad, and how much work it is, sometimes, to keep moving forward. The anger, the joy, the ups and downs. But forging ahead through all of that has been worth it, and there isn't much I would go back and change.
The last few minutes of the film, I was in tears. The love and tenderness the two characters had for each other at the end just overwhelmed me. My husband and I are nearing the same age, and I see those days coming for us, too. Thanks to the directors for creating such a meaningful story.
I'm not really a fan but I really felt sorry for him in the last scene 🙈 He has made some bad decisions and…
I felt bad for him, too, when he was forced to do that. And the shock on his face when Tony stood up (which I was waiting for. I knew he was faking the whole wheelchair thing.) was so intense.
I think somehow.....not sure how......but somehow Winner didn't realize before what a horror show he was involved in. He's just now realizing the depth of Tony's depravity.
We know from a past episode that Willy has either super speed or the ability to manipulate time. Not sure which.
Willy said he was training with his team at the time Babe was hit by that car, and Babe confirmed that.
But it seems possible that, while he *was* indeed with his team, Willy's ability may have made it possible to ALSO temporarily be in the car that hit Babe and then race (or time jump) back to his team, who never realized he was gone.
Pure speculation, of course. Just a thought.
-----------------------
NEW IDEA - I wonder if Willy has the ability to temporarily clone himself?
That slap caught me off guard and hurt my heart for poor Pethai. The despair on Prince Ramil's face later, as Pethai was being whipped, made me really sad.
I think Khanin, too, was shocked to his core to see such violence. Such a contrast to his "Dad" (Thatdanai), who raised him with true love and care.
Apparently Itt and Mawin have been seeing each other for a while (in the car after the massage scene Itt said "Thanks for always dropping me off...."), which means that NC stuff was just a continuation of earlier relationship scenes that happened off camera. So they're currently a secret, but established couple.
Back when Typhoon and Than were still friends / muay thai training buddies, Typhoon liked Than but didn't feel that he could confess. And Than was COMPLETELY oblivious to Typhoon's feelings. So Phoon decided to walk away, and he basically dumped Than as a friend.
Than was so hurt (still not realizing what caused Typhoon to dump him) that he vowed never to fight against Typhoon.
But now Keen is in the picture, and he and Than have feelings for each other. Typhoon has noticed that, and he's angry that Than not only likes another guy, but also because Than never picked up on Phoon's feelings and returned them. So Phoon going to take that anger and frustration out on Than the next time they fight.
CLARIFICATION: Those ^^^^^^ are my own interpretations. I have not read the original story.

Looking forward to more episodes!!
The acting was very natural, the setting was pretty, and the music was perfect.
It's a super short slice-of-life vignette that I think is worth watching, even if not a whole lot happens.
Among other problems, the acting is awful. I mean REALLY bad.
Dropping it.
