idk what Jom was planning at the end, but everyone conniving so whatever. also Luang Thep Nititham has trained his family wel l- no matter how they truly feel, he says jump & they ask how high. no matter how bad his decisions for them turned out, not one has come to confront him with the reality of his self-centered, hard handed "rulings". idk for whom i feel sorrier; Yai, Ueangphueng or Bussabong. they have little to no say in how they want to live their lives. this such a sad reality & no i didn't forget Jom - i just don't feel sad for him. *********************************************************************************************on the other hand Fongkaew has surprised me in this ep, she is too good to be true. when she saw Ueangphueng with Mei she realized that Ueangphueng wasn't any different from her & that made her come to make peace. she even helped Mei & tried to save Ming & the other guy that was supposed to guard Mei. all while she is trying to find evidence showing Robert was behind the arson, that took her father's life & forced her into this hell / marriage. one would think she had enough on her plate, to care for others that didn't show her the bare minimum of kindness, when she came into that house & yet she still went out of her way to help them. kinda impressed.

Trying to find a home

Things aren’t going well for Blood River. They tried another clinic in Tianqi but it did not make much of an impression. We are given some of Prince Langya’s history. He falls in love with one from Situ clan and she brought him to meet her father. She learned the sword he carried was a legendary blade used by the imperial line. She is firm about wanting nothing to do with the court and after a lengthy test period she offers him a chance if he can stay in the martial world for a year. He readily agrees but it is not said why he didn’t keep his vow to her. It is just clear both are rather miserable. He does get her to agree to his request upon his death. Blood River was supposed to have a meal with the prince at a restaurant of his choosing yet he didn’t show. After a considerable wait the Blood River group plans to leave. Tang Lianyue is not going to let them leave without removing the puppet poison from his master. When things get heated, Changhe gets out he’ll palm and the Prince counters it. They offer him a deal but we are not told yet how that panned out. First Prince has found a ghost blade to join his ghost doc. Changhe is getting tired of trying to make deals with people as corrupt as the hirers of blood river blades. I am curious if the medicine king is making any progress on night crow’s puppet poison.

dude, i get that the patriarch decides & the family follow orders, but he never even told his children 'i am thinking to marry u off'.... 'this a potential spouse - what do u think'. guess they r told on the day of the wedding to dress up & come down to get married - so weird & soul crushing, that this happened to people in some point in time - well there sadly countries where this sh*t is still going on & worse, we talking about child brides. so idk why i am shocked. anyway poor Yai & Ueangphueng. *********but also feel sad for Bussabong, as in Luang Thep Nititham case he suspected that both his children had developed unnatural affections, that wouldn't serve him & his ambitions, might even bring shame to his name. not just cause they had fallen for the help, but cause they were of the same gender. not exactly acceptable then. so marring them off in his mind solved that problem - nipping it in the bud. but what is Bussabong's fathers problem - why do that to his own daughter? i don't get the mindset - ********************************************************************************************************************************************also was worrying about both couples in the previous ep, given how Yai & Jom were acting i was sure that they would be the couple that gets caught. but nope it was Ueangphueng & Mei. poor girls to get outed like that. am shocked Robert didn't fly into a rage & beat the living day lights out of Mei. but he did what he does best, assault his wife. *******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************with everything going on, i think the scene i really enjoyed & loved was Khamsaen's mother telling Fongkaew to leave her son alone. that was such a wholesome scene, where u could see proof of a mother's love. i get why Fongkaew can't let go of the past & maybe she still dreams that once she finds evidence, she can resume her life with Khamsaen. but that is after the dust has settled. she's really was being selfish, she needs to leave him be & not put a target on his back, while she is still in the same situation. as he would be put in danger, where as she might just get a beating, as doubt Robert gonna toss her out. i think -

i guess stupidity is infectious, Yai should…

i guess stupidity is infectious, Yai should know better then to do almost everything he has done throughout this ep - he knows his father looks down on him (why i have yet to figure out) but he feels like Yai has let him down. he keeps criticizing him , even comparing him to his assistant Chan & given he has grown up in that environment, he doesn't know that the servant's would gossip?!? & ironically they slipped-up in front of the biggest gossip... his father finding out, wouldn't be just a scolding for Jom or himself, he would suffer & Jom being a servant (that his father didn't approve of in the 1st place) will suffer worse & i doubt it will end with a beating/lashing. from Jom i have zero expectation's, his new life keeps showing him that he has no autonomy over his own life, even if he leaves the house he is WORKING in - he has nowhere to go. No way to support himself or survive in that time period. he is getting by just cause of Yai. once he doesn't have him - who will help him? give him a roof, clothing & food?!??? James?!? i guess - but does he want to leave Yai??? if not then why not try & use some common sense & not act in a way that will make it clear to everyone around that the relationship between Yai & Jom is more then master & servant. but i got no high hopes & anything that goes wrong is both their fault for not using their heads, sorry not sorry. i wont be shedding a tear over what's gonna come. ********************************************************************************************************i feel sorrier for Ueangphueng, as a woman she doesn't have a say he life is decide by her father & then her husband & yet she has succeeded in creating a secret life of her own cause of Mei. but i don't see their love flourishing either given how domineering her husband is. ironic that both siblings & their lovers r in danger if they r found out. *******************************poor, sweet got his heart broken - he is such a good friend & he finally confessed to Mei. pity she didn't know how to react & just ran. even though anything she said would break his heart as she already loved another. i just worry for him - odk why i have a feeling that he is the one that is gonna lose his life not one of the mains character's i've mentioned above. heck i think even Fongkaew will get what she is after & regain her freedom to be with the one she loves. might even get justice for her father. but i might be wrong. who knows...

Lobbying for prisoner swap

Xing Shen has something new to consider that he’s not sharing except for with Ma. The fiends might have originally been human and their DNA got combined with things they ate. So rather than adding to become human, they are removing to revert back. He has mentioned Yan Tuo to Lin XiRou for reasons only known to him. This has led Luo to reveal herself as Mad Knife and to make an attempt already by herself to find Yan Tuo. He used the bracelet weapon against Ling XiRou and they are having far more candid conversations now. All the work she did has been unraveled and if they don’t find Lin Ling she will not be able to u do the blood damage done to her. They have Yan Tuo locked up and Jiang was shown to be locked up in mine somewhere last episode but now thanks to Xing Shen all negotiations have been stalled. I do not know what he hoped to gain or if he just wanted them to die together since she no longer sought him out as partner. The hunters are not very prepared and they really need more research into what fiends actually were and are. There could be a middle ground if Xing Shen would stop burning bridges on both sides. His autonomy needs re evaluated and his fiend hostage Locust needs to be in the bargaining. I wonder if mother and child would recognize each other if introduced. The doc has also been compromised now and he was a valuable assist to both sides.
