My life is over

I am very interested on how they’re going to end this show. Character development because jin on episode one would truly never. I’m so fucking sad this show is over. I don’t know what I’m gonna do with myself on Sunday anymore. Maybe go to church I don’t know. I think they could’ve done a little bit more with surfing Jarvis couple towards the end because it’s just like oh this happened. Oh, he slept outside. Oh no we’re back together. I wish they did a little bit more with that but it’s OK. Also, I wish they did a little bit more with the review with the Dad feel like we could’ve drag that out a bit more but it’s OK I’ll give The ending an 8.50 my two favorite scenes in the show one was this for surfing Java when Jarvis is fucking wasted and he’s like I’m gonna be fucked earlier because I’m so drunk right now love that and also the scene where they’re like the start of their relationship and like tried to send them on his lap, but he was like whoa stop love this show just dropped my knees in the Wally world parking lot holy fuck Also using the voice thing and I’m not going back to fix my mistakes. Okay bye!

Final case wrapped up and eye for an eye

This case brought in the trifecta of leaders with biggest names and darkest tricks. They believe themselves untouchable and have networking down to a fine art keeping all bases covered to go their way. I like that they make us wonder if Kang Da wit will be tempted by a bribe and how he twisted that around to surprise them all. 👏🏻Ms Oh has plans and he is part of them, but she also brought in lawyer Woo. This was reward for helping with defendants. Da Wit is not happy but takes it in stride til he hears the first case they want to cover. Ms Oh even wants this to be the case that makes them go international. 😝 Let’s jump in to defend the company killing babies.😝 Da Wit put the babies pictures on their whiteboard and determined right then he wanted nothing to do with this firm. When Mr Oh told his daughter she was just like him, this first case makes that all too evident. Da Wit and the rest of the pro bono group cannot represent the victims unless they leave the firm. He is naming it eye for an eye and proudly marching his team out of the Oh building. I am truly hoping this is laying the groundwork for a season two. This drama covered thought provoking cases. They explored a lot of social ills and polarizing issues. It came full circle with him pointing out who had set him up and her admitting it. This drama is definitely worth the watch if you like watching court cases. It gives a nice view of all the machinations behind the scene that both assist and deny true justice. I am really hoping they have a second season with the eye for an eye firm in its own quirky location. I will definitely be watching.

It’s all about trust — history, insecurity, and crossed wires

Episode 8 is all about trust — and how quickly it can fracture. The ML’s studio goes head to head with the Rival Lead’s (RL) company in the design competition, and we begin to understand just how much history exists between them. The RL’s company was founded by the ML’s father and another partner, which explains the tension and unresolved resentment simmering beneath the surface.The RL, true to form, enjoys sowing discord. He deliberately implies that the FL would be easily swayed to his side — something that couldn’t be further from the truth. His company had already dismissed her as not good enough during interviews, while the ML was the one who recognised her potential despite her lack of experience. That contrast matters.Unfortunately, things unravel when the ML implies a lack of trust — and before he can clarify, the FL has already begun to distance herself. Her reaction is understandable, and the ML seems genuinely thrown by the sudden emotional distance.Fate (and the game) intervenes when they cross paths again. The FL is helping her best friend’s husband with a business deal involving a shady client — complete with uncomfortable physical contact — and ends up chatting with the ML as part of a game mission. It’s here that the misunderstanding is finally cleared up: it was never about him not trusting her, but about not trusting the RL.While the clarification brings relief, the emotional impact lingers. Trust doesn’t reset instantly, and this episode does a great job showing how fragile it can be when old wounds and outside interference are involved.It feels like the real battle isn’t the competition itself, but whether trust can survive when history and manipulation keep getting in the way.

Trust issues

There is another flashback to name change. Yu and Pei are called brothers. Pei has issues with it and is one of the many things he holds against Yu. The traitor/mole lucked into a spot at some smaller location. Pei’s reference to dogs and humans…..he is really full of himself. The former designer was so grateful for any position at all that he did not recognize how far he had fallen.😝 Zhao and Xiu have a scene where Zhao is upgrading her online presence. She is developing a keener business acumen to note trends etc for her coffees. She sees this as her way to help her hubby. Xiu’s uncle is helpful and ships her fresh crabs. She graciously gifts them to Yu and his face says it all.🤣😂 He has a meeting with Pei at Zhuling and discuss the mole. Pei is starting to imply things about Xiu as well. He truly is a snake. Xiu and the congenial colleague are out on the worksite. He is called back early but she opts to stay. She sees what they are up against with Zhuling connections, so she personally remeasures the soft soil areas of the site to consider how best to layout the project and address safety concerns for least price. She ends up stuck in the rain after dark and here again is Pei to the rescue. Unfortunately they were at a more remote area so she reconsiders her taxi efforts and rides with him tho it is very clear she is uncomfortable with him. Pei recognizes her as the one that refused to be his assistant. He is intrigued that one would choose to leave their company than settle for a lesser job. He probes her a bit about the dynamics of her current workplace. He tries to undermine Yu by saying he would never leave a female colleague out alone on the worksite. She takes responsibility for choosing to stay and said that she didn’t believe she was found to be a good mesh for Zhuling. He agrees that HR messed up with her qualifications and asked if they could get another shot at hiring her. Yu finds out at the staff meeting that Xiu was alone on site. She wasn’t even supposed to be there so he was surprised and concerned. He has figured out what car she is in and he cuts them off on the road. This is kinda extreme and she’s not sure what to make of it. She is relieved to be away from Pei, but she asked him point blank if he didn’t trust her. Yu took a call, and instead of having them wait a moment, he expected Xiu to wait on him. I’m glad she left without telling him. He needs to be more up front about why he is acting the way he is. Yu realizes he messed up too late. He sees her in the office early and notes it. At the meeting she presents her ideas to work around water area. She suggests water lanes which would be quite unique and good use for the area. Ms Zhou is quite impressed with the idea and says so. Yu is much more restrained. He wants to chat with her after work but she had already left. Zhao’s husband wants to invite a hopeful client to the murder mystery game. She immediately wants to ask Xiu to go along because she is the best player now. Xiu is hard at work and really doesn’t want to go. But she is told actor B will be there and Zhao really wants the client to be amenable to a future collaboration. Xiu reluctantly agrees and finds herself in a fake marriage to the client. He has been treating this outing as a blind date and that is far more than Xiu expected to deal with. He compares them to Mr. And Mrs. Smith and has the temerity to tell her she falls short of Angelina Jolie’s looks. If this chubby arrogant man thinks he can compare in any fashion to Brad Pitt at all….well he’s clearly delusional.😝🙄 Her scarf blew off and there is Yu returning it to her. She is far from happy because she expected the other guy so her reaction is why you?🤣😂 Her ‘husband’ is one of those slimy overbearing types that thinks they know best. He wants to change Xiu’s character and roughshod over the game rules because ‘he knows best’ and has had more experience. She goes for stroking his ego in the clothing store and ducks out the door as fast as she can. She meets with Qin in the movie because she was supposed to set up an interview. He breaks protocol and she calls him on it. She uses the game to revisit the trust issue and he responds this time. He then segues to question about her relationship with her ‘husband’ and how close are they. She just candidly explains how she is roped into being nice to this guy because her friend needs him as a client. She admits that he would not get the time of day from her otherwise. She is annoyed and fed up and wishes out loud that she would not have to run into him anymore during the game because it will get ugly if she does.Yu looks at her and basically said that can be arranged. She’s looking at him and asking what? He said I will be sure you don’t run into him . He is making up for his shortcomings earlier and stepping in to give her a much needed break. I really hope next episode shows how he did it.
