Incredible

And the perfect flow of events is kept throughout this episode as well. They have amazing chemistry these two. I really like this childish boss ^-^ He's cute in his own way. They're so funny together! I'm loving this more and more!!

There was just one disappointing thing in this episode to me - Those few seconds in which Wang Ji Hye appeared. I have no idea what kind of role she has here, but her face instantly got me thinking of her character from Personal Taste and all that hate came back the moment I saw her >_< Of all the dramas I've seen so far, that woman is the most detestable of all villains! If she has a negative role in here as well I don't think I'll be able to handle it. And even if she's a nice character here, her face will keep reminding me of that other role each time I see her. I HOPE it won't be the case. It would be a waste of an otherwise perfect drama.

"Be Happy."

&quot;Be happy.&quot; -Shin Kyeong Mo (Sun Ae's younger brother)



That's so sweet that Kyeong Mo finally got to do what he probably wanted to do for his sister, help her be happy. I didn't want to mention it in my last review so I could keep it spoiler free. It's sweet that Sun Ae's brother helps bring Bong Seon and Seon Woo together. Not only is it such a real and heart felt scene when they make up, but I adore a good romantic swing moment that followed after word.



What I love more is Bong Seon and Seon Woo had a frank discussion about their romance and what was real. I loved that Seon Woo even joked that he was in a love triangle with a ghost! Ha-ha. It my be supernatural, but the conversation felt natural and real. The writer and the actors knocked it out of the park! I also enjoyed how Seon Woo handled talking to a ghost and treating her like a human. Though I really feel for Sun Ae, Seon Woo and her were in a relationship too.



Meow. *shivers* Well Seong Jae's evilness has come out! Holy cow, the hit and run. He hit and then drove over her, then ran. Oh. My. Drama. Just everything about this. Seong Jae has clearly been possessed from the get go and I really want to know when. Or if he ever was officially possessed. Seong Jae has truly become on epic villain. To fool everyone and be so kind and smiley. Oh, yeah. Meow.



Things are really building up as we finally get the truth behind Seong Jae, Sun Ae, and Eun Hee. Now all that's left is getting down to the nitty gritty. That cliffhanger! Ah! Be safe Sun Ae. Not to mention how this love triangle is going to wrap up.

In which Feng illustrates that he would rather be feared than loved

So the Flame Villa descends into evil--it's sort of like how a revolution happens--the aftermath is always cleaning house, and the ones watching it have this sick feeling in their stomach, like maybe this is a bad idea?

1)Flame lord invites Feng to sit down and asks him why he is so quiet.  Feng's face is like icy anger as he asks him why his parents died, and the flame lord insists that they took their own lives.  Feng clearly does not believe this and then asks him why he summoned soldiers, and the flame lord states it's because he wants to help him leave Anye Lyo.  But Feng defends him, and states that this is his maternal uncle, which causes the flame lord to be super tirggered as he angrily reminds him that he took him in, raised him, taught him martial arts, how is it that Ge'er can believe him but not Feng?  Feng dismisses her as naive, and so flame lord asks him what he must do to gain his trust, and so Feng'er states he has to give him a reason to trust him.  Feng raises his weapon as if to behead him, and this makes Flame lord break down into laughter as he tells the memorial of his brother that his own son wants to kill him.

2)Housekeeper stabs him the back!  Literally and figuratively!  Flame lord calls him a rat and knocks him down.  He dies in Feng's arms, who is shocked, and his last words are for him to leave the evil palace and to have no regrets.  Housekeeper forces him to leave and then uses explosives to blow the place up.

3)Zhongli visits Ge'er, and she knows that this is bad, and she listens as he reports that her father is dead.  After fainting, Ge'er leaves with him.  She arrives to find the hall in mourning.  She puts on the white clothes and all eyes are on her as she makes her bows.  This is when Housekeeper Li says that villa bussiness should be addressed, and he suggests that Feng be appointed as hall master since she lacks experience.  The only person who speaks up for her is, surprisingly, Ji.  Feng'er is silent (COWARD).  Wu Xia rises and says that he believes that Feng'er is a good choice because the sudden death of the flame lord robbed him of the chance to properly train Ge'er.  With no one on her side, she has no choice--she decides to appoint Feng'er as Deputy Master and leaves.  Ji calls Feng out for not respecting their master's wishes.  Feng'er yells right back and accuses him of not being supportive.  Ji said that he supported him when the master was alive to give him a fair chance, however, since he is dead, he is honor bound to respect his last wishes.  Feng'er then says well what if his last wish was a mistake, do you honestly believe Ge'er is qualified?  He wants to know what he will do to Ge'er, and Feng says he will give her a carefree life. 

4)That night she visits the place her father dies, and Feng follows her. She has a fever, he tries to make her leave, but she refuses.  She wants to know how explosives were planted in the room, it is supposed to be the safest place, how could no one have known?  She returns to her room, and summons Zhongli who reports that her father had all the elite soldiers summoned back while sending Feng away.  He also reports that her father died the same day as Feng's return.

5)At the next morning meeting, Zhongli is the only branch master not present. All the hall masters state that Zhongli never attends the meetings, and Feng says that he was spoiled in the past and this will change.  He sends evil housekeeper li to bring him by.  Zhongli states he is unwell and cannot attend--and in a flashback we see that Li and Zhongli entered the place together.  He reminds Li to not harm the trust their master had in them, and this actually seems to make Li a smidge guiilty.  He reports back that Zhongli will not attend, and so Feng decides to send a strong message.  He initially plans to expel him for disobeying him but because the branch masters are defensive of him, strips him of his title and gives it to housekeeper Li (who is like a child in a candy store when he learns this) but it seems that Zhongli burned (I hope) the most important secret documents.

6)Die Yi goes to see Zhongli but seems to have packed his bags and left.  Ji is apparently banned from attending hall meetings, which leads to a violent conflict with housekeeper li who seems hungry to do him some serious harm.  

Oh, in this episode, I forgot to add, there is  a monologue where Feng reflects on how he has what he wanted, the master is dead, he is charge of the villa, but he is not happy and Ge'er is utterly miserable....

---So Feng'er continues to reveal to the audience that he is a spineless coward.
