Tee was drunk due to Dao's earlier rejection. Dao went upstairs to talk to him and Tee offered Dao the bed. I think Dao was trying to get him to stay and talk, but he kept telling him he could sleep there. Considering they were "in a relationship" (according to Dao's media status early on), but slept in the same bed much of that time, I guess that was normal for them? idk, but it was weird. Tee didn't do anything with Dao that night, but he tried. He kept kissing him. Dao was definitely putting off mixed signals, although I think he was too stupid to realize it.

It's interesting that you say that. I really liked the first Bar! He had a gruff manner. It was the guy who played his bf who I didn't think fit the role. But I like this new Bar, too.

I agree with that analysis. As for the last part, they really aren't playing up on Vee's sexual confusion. But it was there at first.

I feel bad for him.

Daonuea was also pounding his fists on his thighs in that crying scene with Nine. I don't know why they have him acting like that. Honestly, I thought for a minute that Tee was going to force himself on Dao. But I think he was just really frustrated since they've been in a relationship (according to Dao's media status) and Dao just told him he could sleep with him in the bed. (Huh?)

I don't know why I was thinking about this, but I went back and looked at the sex scene from ep 2. For some reason, I thought they showed Nine's butt, but they don't. The R rating must be for the thrusting motion they made. Unless they do something in the final episodes, all the big talk was for that and some side boob.
ALSO, I ran across where Daonuea posted on his fb or some account that he was in a relationship with Tee. (Evidently just not a sexual relationship--something for which Tee has to ask for in front of their friends.)

Do we get anything with Nuea and his love interest?

I haven't seen it but read what you said. It seems like some episodes are used as fillers, like there is a designated amount of episodes they have to have or something. I don't know. Maybe those who have read the novel will tell us if that part is in it.

Wow, Mark certainly is getting a lot of attention lately.

I have been very mixed up about episode numbers, but I think I must have noted it down wrong (I keep track of eps as I watched) and then WeTV offered ep 9 as a bonus so this website is showing ep 10 as next. So, to answer your question, ep 8 just aired. If you are a VIP on WeTV and pay and extra couple of dollars, you can watch ep 9 early and next week ep 10 early. Otherwise you'll be watching ep 9 next week and 10 the next.

Seriously, she couldn't step in?

I agree with all you said. And vomiting at that crucial moment was an annoying plot device. I was surprised Ploy tried at all to clear things up. I don't think she cares about anyone but herself, tbh. I also felt it a little ridiculous that Mark and Vee wound up in the same bar even thought Mark said no to going with that group earlier. But this is a university, and that's its own small world in itself.

He gets so cold in those scenes. It's chilling. War is such a good actor. When he gets upset, his eyes speak for him.

Who gets raped in the novel? And I wonder why, in the show, they aren't acknowledging Vee's one-nighter with Mark when Vee was still with Ploy. Is Vee bi? Did he not consider having sex with a guy to be cheating?

I liked the first one and am really liking this extended version. I'm so glad they used the same two actors. I enjoy the angst to a point. If they hadn't begun clearing things up this episode, I would have been upset. At the same time, I think Vee needs to do some more to make amends because he really did hurt Mark several times.

I honestly figured Ploy wasn't interested enough in clearing that up to go out of her way to tell Mark. Ploy seems really all about herself.

Or that Vee didn't think sleeping with a boy was cheating? Idk. But it's never mentioned. So weird.

I think I got mixed up on the numbers since My Drama List shows 10 for next week. I'll change the post. But people are saying that ep 9 is available for early view for paying VIPs on WeTV. That added to the confusion.

Okay, thanks. I guess that's where I got so mixed up about the numbers. Will vips have to wait two weeks for ep 10, I wonder? Probably not since Mydramalist is showing ep 10 for Aug. 6th.

My 2 cents: There's a lot of discussion about the drinking. My opinion is that this seems realistic in a university setting, at least for America. I don't know about Thailand. A lot of kids get that drunk in college--not that it's right, it just is.
I'm not expecting them all to suddenly grow into maturity in one series. Just that they learn, and I do think Vee has learned that by coddling Ploy he almost lost someone most important to him. (And no, it wasn't okay for him to cheat on her with Mark. And it wasn't okay for her to cheat on him, either.) As far as the scales go right now, I do feel that Vee needs to prove himself to Mark. He's hurt Mark with his wishy-washy attitude with Ploy in the past, and Nuea was right when he told Vee he shouldn't have put himself in that situation in the first place so that Ploy could kiss him like that.
So, I get it when people feel Mark needs a better guy. (And, evidently, the poor guy was cheated on in his last relationship.) But Mark is so clearly in love with Vee, so I want them to be together. If the story went another way and he, say, starting thinking of giving Nuea a chance, I could see going for that, too.
The thing that I think should have been addressed and hasn't been, is how Vee slept with Mark that first night when he was dating Ploy.
