Tod is the evil mastermind and he's using the gang against Tawi. Black found out and paid the price. Meanwhile, Dan killed Sean's father. But at least he's sorry.

100% agree.

We all know Todd is evil - she's just saying we're going to give him an alibi anyway.

Is that really true? The hottest Thai BL actors always seem to be the most Western looking. I thought Tine was much hotter than Sarawat, but I'm the only person that does. Bright is always at the top of the list.

Yes - he picked the ugliest person he could find and somehow made him beautiful. Amazing, but true.

I've never NOT thought it was Todd. Pure evil. I'll bet he drowns puppies just for kicks. I wouldn't be surprised if Sean is totally wrong and Tawi is innocent.

I think that might be true - my money is on Todd as the Big Bad.

I 100% agree - Gawin was the standout in an ep of standouts. It doesn't hurt that his looks have developed as much as his acting - he's the best leading man material in any BL I've seen.

I have to say I was shaking a little after the Dan/Yok scene - where did that come from? Gawin was absolutely on fire. I've liked but not loved this series so far, but this episode was as good as Bad Buddy Ep 5. The Sean/Tawi confrontation was also pitch-perfect - I'm really amazed at how much both Off and Gawin's acting has improved - that was just excellent.

Also, Todd is evil. I wouldn't be surprised if it's all him an Tawi is a good guy. Anyone who's a billionaire that brings a bag of soy milk cartons for to a friend for a meal has to be evil.

I can't find this anywhere - any guidance?

Well, I agree - but internalized homophobia can be heteronormative conditiioning that leads you to think you should be with a girl, not a guy, i.e. valuing one type of love over another. That's not visceral hatred of homosexuality, but it's still a powerful motivator - especially for men, who are expected to be masculine - which has nothing to do with being gay, of course, but that's the perception.

Maybe we watch it because it's easy to scan through for the stuff you want to see. So far that's about 90 seconds per episode, but hopefully once the romance starts up there will be more. Also, I just can't look away from Son - he's so cute I just want to hug and squeeze him untill he's dead (that's a literary refence - I don' t really want to kill him.)

Gen Y is a nonsensical trainwreck - this is merely supernaturally slow.

For me it's Milk - so cute. But I have to rely heavily on 2x and judicious skipping.

I'll admit Milk is super-cute, but I'm not sure he's cute enough for me to watch him sleeping for 20 minutes. But he kind of is.

This hospital has no concept of patient confidentiality - my goodness.

But he also made Lovesick 2, which is more boring than this and that was 36 episodes.

That's a legitimate interpretation - but Fah and Thorn have had quite a bit of time to get reintroduced and yet they always seem to recoil from almost-affection as if there's something wrong with it. Rmember, Fah had what being in love feels like described to him and he purposefully did the opposite as if there's something wrong with it.

Woth Dome and Vee, I think they just this ep understand/acknowledge what they feel which is why they talked about it (and note how vaguely Vee described it), and with Saen & Aii, they are the lighthearted cute couple, but it doesn't feel to me that they tonally match the other pairs for the reasons you describe - neither of them really have any problem with it - Aii just didn't like Saen and it took time to win him over.

Dome and Vee are so evocative of me and so many other gay boys at that age that it's hard for me to read it any other way.

Don't tell me what words to use.

Do you know what internalized homophobia is? That's not what you're describing - at all. Also, you didn't read my post - I said the Aii-Saen couple doesn't tonally match the other two - it's so open and the other pairs are repressed.

How about they bring back Sean (Jeff Satur)?

I don't think they really understood & acknowledged their feelings until this episode, and once they did, they put a stop to it. I don't think they've done anything morally objectionable. If they do anything after that discussion, then it's cheating. Even if Dome breaks up with Vee's sister, that's still kind of awful - can you imagine how betrayed you'd feel if a sibling did that to you?
