Ramil/Paytai yes. Ramil finally walks away from Rachata and his abuse and goes to find Paytai on the beach where he apologizes for not being the lover that Paytai deserves. There's a lot of emotional hugging and hope that they are able to stay together. The scene is about their intent to do so. Both sweet and heartbreaking at the same time because neither one of them has anyone who gives a crap about them except for each other.

Calvin/Jay not so much. They weren't in a romantic relationship to start with, but Calvin confesses that he likes him and Jay says the same. There are a couple of hugs and a quick peck on the lips. It was sweet.

I was confused too. Nont Intanont, who is a guest In the final chapter of TNP as a broadcaster, has a supporting role in Reset as a character named Janine. Yes he's a guy.

Yes.

In the final episode? "Moonlight Magic" or Dancing in the Moonlight. Written by Amp Achariya. She sings it in an early episode when Khanin is installed as a prince. She's a very prolific Tpop composer and is partially responsible for NuNew's rise as a singer. She's also behind the popularity of other singers like Non Tanont.

I didn't think there was going to be a kiss scene. They hadn't even said they liked each other yet. And also don't forget that Net and JJ have only been partnered for about 2 seconds.

Nah. You're making it about me. I could make it about you but I don't care enough about you to do that. Honestly you need to find another hobby because you're never going to get me to care about whether or not you like my opinions or me.

I spent 20 years on Capitol Hill before I became a science writer and publisher knocking the crap out of members of Congress so I sure don't care about the opinions of people I don't know on an internet discussion group.

If you want to talk about the series fine. I'm happy to do that. If you want throw a tantrum about what you think are my shortcomings I really don't give a crap. 💩

Two or three sentences is an essay?

You misunderstood. That was straight out snark. But my first comment was not.

Wow okay. Do I really have to explain this to you?

Plot:

1) King of Emmally is sick and wants to abdicate. A fencing match has historically decided who the next king will be. The participants are the children and the father of whoever wins becomes the next king.

Khanin The King's grandson has been raised in England after a car accident and the story starts when the king sends his adopted grandson and bodyguard to go and collect him.

Then each one of the episodes that story is brought forth. If you feel like waiting around I will be writing a overview of how the plot unfolds. And if you don't feel free to use your internet version of crinkling up paper and throwing it in the garbage.

2) Said bodyguard falls in love with the King's Bio grandson. And what unfolds is the story of their romance and eventual marriage.

I can't help what your opinion is but the acting was good, not Academy Award-winning good, but better than the acting I've seen in most Asian dramas much less most BL's.

I liked the darkness of the original book but understand why they did not use some of that in the series. And the book had more plot holes than the series anyway.

There was only one real plot hole that I found. And that was Charan not being ready to tell Khanin that he loved him when according to his ethics just kissing him was his vow of eternal love and fidelity.

Other than that I thought the story was pretty straightforward.

Khanin's character development was quite marked. He went from being a pretty immature 22-year-old to a man who was mature and kind, who offered a hand to his competitor in a high stakes fencing match. It went from being pretty needy about his love for Charan to a full-blown patient and steady lover.

Up until now you haven't been throwing a tantrum. I own every single word that I've written here. I have no idea what you are babbling on about now but whatever is going on please fix it. It's not my problem.

Sorry. You can say why you don't like something in two or three sentences. If you can't be bothered with that then you're comment is absolute garbage, crap, flotsam, jetsam, and let's not forget poo. 💩

There actually wasn't one bit of what I said that was directed at you and 0% snark. But I can try some if you would like. I am nothing but accommodating.

I write critiques because I enjoyed the series and I like to write. If people like my critiques fine if they don't that's fine with me.

I know I can write because before I retired people were paying me big bucks for this.

To be completely honest I don't give a rat's azz what you think of me.

They got that. There were very few plot holes.

I'm not the authority but it doesn't take a genius to know that a comment that says you don't like something without saying why you don't like it is crap.

Snarky?

I wasn't even a tiny little bit surprised. Violent narcissist fits the profile.

Rachata was a violent narcissist. You can't really expect rational behavior from someone like that.

You were probably lucky enough not to grow up with a person like that but I wasn't.

There is no reasoning with someone like that. The only thing you can do is walk away which is what Ramil did.

Chana.

If you watched the series you must have seen the flashback to when Ramil was in high school and he tried to intervene when Paytai was being punished. He made it worse on Paytai and that is why he didn't intervene later on.

He was also a little kid when Paytai came to the palace and they were both abused from a very young age. I don't think that Ramil is supposed to be very old. Khanin is supposed to be 22, and Ramil is either the same age or a little younger. FWIW in the book Ava was 20 but the actress who played her was only 16 when they started filming.

Anyway he was still pretty young and over the course of the drama he made realizations about what was going on in his life and how his father's violence was affecting how he treated Paytai.

Ramil wasn't a hypocrite or a coward he was a victim of abuse and traumatized. And I give him props for being able to walk away from his father and try to make it up to his lover.
