Sadnezz

She came back to Beijing five days ago already. There is a fancam of her at the airport.

According to Vietnamese news outlet, she has to do promotions (recording) and dubbing for Road Home.

I read on the vietnamese news outlet that she has not been filming for this drama because she has to do recording to promote Road Home (part of her contract). Also, she has to dub for Road Home too.

With all the gifts that NZ gives to people, I wouldn’t be surprised if they were product placements. It’s like he is in charge of all product placements. It makes his character generous. For example, the pen. He talks about the ink and compares it with other pens (how it doesn’t make a mess). Another example is the coffee maker. He takes it out and the drama shows him simply making coffee and CX complimenting it. The only one that is not a product placement might be the airplane with her name since he claims to make it.

I haven’t watch episodes 33-34 yet. No time . Will catch up when my load of work is reduced. Only have time to read spoilers and short clips (previews/ bts/cuts) between my breaks today. Have fun watching Episodes 35-36. I look forward to the spoilers again.

I agree with you. It makes perfect sense. I think it is better for GNT to say goodbye to his dead gf and confess to NZ before making a move on CX. This is to show them respect. It's better for GNT to fully clear everything he has to clear first before entering into a new relationship. In this case, rushing into thing can hurt people around them. NZ would be hurt if GNT gets together with CX first before telling him when GNT was the one who denied his feeling before (NZ checks in with GNT a few times before pursuing). Because of their long time friendship the least he could do is to give NZ a heads up.

the popularity of the hands!!!!

As people who are not muddled with regrets, we can think of other solutions. I agree with you that finding the evidence is the first thing to do. GNT also advises her and suggests her to keep this internal. He continues to seek for evidence. As a person working at LZ, she will have more access to things than if she is suspended. Once she has the evidence, she can bring it to President Xu. When President Xu accepts her evidence, she can go inform the passenger's parents about the true situation. I think a sincere apology is more important than a public one.

You beat me to the explanation...lol. I guess I typed too slow. Anyway, I like your explanation, so @cp123, please ignore mine.

With the passenger's dad suing, I think the drama does not do a good job. His lawyer (the swindler) wants the money (including trying to blackmail Jiang...settle with money or will make this public). As for the dad, it is unclear. After seeing the dad and his lawyer go up to meet Jiang, I think CX mentions something about getting an apology won't easy/possible. I assume the dad wants a public apology. Ms. Scriptwriter, Mr. Director, or the team of editors does not do a good job in making it clear. As a result, it is hard for us to connect with the situation.

As for the second lawyer, I think it is to get the truth out (what really happened; the record they have is altered) but most important is to get a public apology. Everyone, including Jiang, know that he will not be held responsible. His choice is logical too; however, it may make people question his choice. At the mediation, money is offered as a settlement outside of court. However, they refuse to do a public apology. I'm sure the passenger's parents have learned what really happened from CX as she is their witness, so this makes the purpose of the lawsuit (to fight for the plaintiff) weakens. As for what kind of apology the dad and CX are looking for, I'm not sure. Confusing, yet dramatic, plothole.

Love can grow (e.g. understanding, trust, support) through going through hardship together. With this situation, we see GNT being supportive and taking care of CX. He is communicating better with her (e.g. sharing what he found, advising) as compared to the beginning of the story (e.g. lack of explanation). Through this ordeal, GNT opens up to CX about his past (towards the dead of his gf)...showing CX his vulnerability.

I know that you are impatient to see them as a couple. You are so close to it. Why would you give up on the drama now? We need you to party with us here..lol. I like slow burn romance, so I am all good.

CX is a plaintiff’s witness…so not the person who sues. She feels guilty/regret for the passenger’s death and wants to do her best, or at least tries her best, to help the family. She understands the possible consequences she will face for her action. This is why she does not let other people be involved in this situation with her. However, she wants the truth for the family. Backing up the company and sitting as a witness along with Jiang and the bro in law, to her, is the same as hiding what she truly witnessed in the cockpit.

If I was the scriptwriter, I would rewrite the part about the first lawyer swindling money from the dad. It was not needed. Just have the lawyer be a good person. Instead, I would have them approach CX for the truth, explaining their desire to know what happened during their son’s death, and asking her to be their witness. Not having CX seeking and hiring the lawyer for the plaintiff would spare CX the criticism from some viewers.

My interpretation of the female lead’s character is different from you. I like how the female lead is not flawless, giving her room for improvement. After working/training for 7 years in the freight department, she finally meets her requirements to be a captain. Sadly, she is moved to the passenger flight instead. Not only is her promotion to be captain shattered, her beloved freight department is gone. Now, she has to take steps back after working so hard to achieve her goal. Unlike her male colleagues, she has to shows her skills (using the simulation) to get an opportunity to join the training to be a first class officer (it was originally suggested for her to be an observer). While training and working in the passenger department, she learns and understands the different between working in the freight department and passenger department. She begins to take into considerations of the passengers when making a decision (before she didn’t have passengers in her flight to think about when making decision). Even lol though, the female lead may disagree with the male lead on some issues; nevertheless, she still takes his words to mind. For example, (you might not watch to this part yet) during her competition with the foreign pilots, she chooses the safety route instead of the more reckless route even though it means losing.

If I remember correctly, Jiang was the co-pilot and GNT’s mentor, captain Xie was the captain of the flight when she was on the flight. I predict that Jiang’s bro in law might turn against him and not get fired but maybe demoted to a different department where he can excel in and have time for his daughter.

Sorry for the confusion. I was referring to the the three candidates for the VP’s morality. For VP, I think NZ would be best because of his good interpersonal skills. Shareholders will want him over GNT because he seems to consider the financial side of the company when making decision too. If NZ is the VP, I’m sure he will help GNT achieve his dream. GNT will be more happy focusing on his dream and not taking care of the responsibility of a VP. I just hope that the ambition to be a VP will not blind NZ into making bad choices.

I interpret it not as a smirk but more as a contented (happy) smile in which he shyly tries to hide…but of course, he fails to hide it.

After the incident, I would rank GNT>NZ>Jiang. Without any hesitation, GNT prioritizes the health condition of the passenger. He is firm and doesn’t care about the meeting in Singapore. NZ cares about the passenger but the thought of reaching Singapore for the meeting crosses his mind. His decision to prioritize for the passenger doesn’t seem strong. Perhaps because the passenger seem to get better/in a more stable condition than before? Jiang, what can I say? I understand his logic (better health care system, flying faster ). His decision (he cancels the diversion before Cheng-xiao returns to the cockpit after assessing the passenger’s condition) makes him cold-hearted. He cares about impressing and getting to the meeting on time before the health of his passenger. Hopefully, this incident can wake him up.

I was expecting one of them to explain what divert mean to the father. I was waiting for an explanation. They said that it would be the choice of the family to divert or not. The father stated that he didn’t know what it mean; yet, no one explain. How could the member of the crew expect the father to make a decision on something they didn’t care enough to explain? It would take an hour to reach Saigon airport (their divert destination). This should be enough time to explain.

Undated: on a second thought, the route to Saigon airport and Singapore airport might not be in the same direction. If this is the case, they might have less time to make the decision.

Out of curiosity, who do you think would be the best choice to be Vice President and why? GNT, NZ, or Jiang.

Her mother learned that CX was hurt last time because of the airplane-nearly- colliding incident. This triggered her PTSD and she ended up in the hospital. Why does she have PTSD? Many years ago (when CX was at boarding school), her mom was on the plane when the ceiling collapsed/exploded (I’m not sure exactly what happened to the ceiling); thus, this caused a change in air pressure. After the incident, mom got PTSD. CX’s parents decided to keep this from CX. When CX got older, she wanted to be a pilot. Mom strongly objected to it and still is against it because she is terrified that something might happen to her daughter.

Her dad thinks that by having CX quit her job, this can help her mom’s condition.
