I've wondered if the father didn't do something to spur the divorce. In the beginning, the mom says something to the kids like, "You don't know both sides." That wasn't what she said, but something like that.

To answer your question, I would say yes. There must be because everything that made the episode turn out the way it did didn't even make any sense. Why accept a date from a guy you know has a crush on you? Tai seemed to be trying to help Lomfon figure out his feelings---he said something like that. "Give it time," or something. Why lie to your boyfriend not just once but twice? If I were Phat, I would have hung up and sent the picture, not gone running over there like a maniac. I don't even know how they can plausibly straighten all of this out at this point.

I feel the shock of the two soulmates thing only excuses Tai from letting Lomfon his him. Why did he go out with him? All I can think of is that he wanted to see if he liked Lomfon better, in which case he shouldn't have lied to Phat. I'm not excusing Phat's ballistic behavior, though.

And as soon as they reminded us with the flashback that Tai knew Lomfon liked him, I was even more confused and angry. What it appears is that Tai accepted a date with Lomfon (all day, not just the meal he owed him) knowing full well that Lomfon likes him. Why accept? The only reason I can come up with is that he wants to check to make sure he and Lomfon don't mesh better than he and Phat. Yet Tai tells Phat that Phat should know how much he loves him.

As soon as that flashback reminded me that Tai KNEW that Lomfon liked him, I was even more angry at stupid Tai. The only way this could have been any worse is if Tai knew that his brother liked Lomfon.
In my opinion, Lomfon is an idiot. Who falls in love with someone they only see for less than a minute just because they saved their life? Did Lomfon recognize Tai right off the bat? I can't remember.

Right. Tai lied to him twice and then pretty much cheated on him. Then he expected Phat to be okay with it all. Why does Tai think Phat should be so certain of Tai's love for him? Tai needs to have to grovel to get Phat back.

I was commenting on your final paragraph, not disagreeing, but trying to figure him out. I totally agree with the first thing you said. What was so different about that moment that made it all change?

He wasn't drunk when he was violent, although he did yell. If Phat hadn't acted so violent, throwing Tai on the ground and beating Lomfon, I would completely be on his side. Tai lied, cheated, and acted cold when Phat was breaking down.

Tian's the only one who acted like an adult.

LMAO! Right? RIGHT? How could the actor even deliver that line with a straight face? OMG.

I guess Tai has a problem with it because he has the soulmate "curse"? I'm just guessing-- Tai's motivation is completely unclear. So, maybe he grew up romanticizing his parents' bond and then was freaked when they split up and now feels like he's got a f'ed up gift or curse or whatever it is. Is this why he accepted Lomfon's invitation? That part just doesn't make any sense to me. Bad writing to have us all trying to piece things together, same as last episode. We're not watching a damn mystery. *grumble grumble*

Still unboxing this mess. Phat (Patt, whatever) seems to take the stance that he doesn't give a fig about the soulmate thing--that he loves Tai for who he is. He's said that more than once. I think Tai came to the same conclusion after he found out Phat is "the Kind One." (Lol.) Phat reinforced that when he told Lomfon that no matter what he can hear when it rains. Tai is Phat's boyfriend and Lomfon needs to stay away from him. Now, with the voices stopping all of a sudden, the universe seems to be saying that the soulmate thing doesn't matter. Nobody can hear anybody when it rains anymore. So, what are they left with?

I am disgusted with them both for different reasons. I don't think Phat's violence was a good excuse for Tai to bow out of giving a good explanation, though, or to give the sorry-ass answer that Phat should understand his silence, or whatever.

Even he didn't want to sit with Tai anymore! lol

I agree. I'm really upset about the main couple, though. I don't understand Tai at all at this point.

Yeah, that didn't go well.

Phat read the comment section here about how he's too wooden and went haywire, lol.

I feel the same way. What's so difficult about saying, "Of course I choose you." I don't even understand Tai's motivation for agreeing to an all-day date with Lomfon!

Right? I feel like there isn't even time to fix this. After seeing the previews for next week, I'm not even looking forward to it. I mean, does Tai learn something important at his mom's wedding? I feel so sorry for Patt, because Tai LIED and basically CHEATED, and even though Patt has a terrible temper, he doesn't deserve the cold way Tai's treated him!
