Chung throws Pansy out of the house after their argument. Pansy left her handbag and Chung brings the handbag down for her. Chung saw Pansy sitting on her luggage bag by the road side and takes pity on her. Pansy offers to go to the bank to withdraw all her savings (HKD 3000) for Chung but Chung tells her to do it tomorrow as it was already late. A soft-hearted Chung then asks Pansy to return to the house.

Ming bumps into Chung outside the bank and got to know that Chung takes personal loan from the bank. Ming then asks Chung why did Pansy not return the money she had borrowed earlier. Chung has no choice but to tell the whole story to Ming. Ming offers to lend Chung some money (HKD 40,000) to help her through difficult times. Chung is grateful to Ming.

Yuk boils some soup and asks Ming to bring over for Pansy. Ming refuses and Yuk ask if they are fighting. Ming immediately becomes defensive and tells Yuk directly that there's nothing going on between him and Pansy and there will never be anything. Yuk feels disappointed.

Man Suk receives a call from his friend who owns the bookstore and pays him a visit. Man Suk's friend is serious about closing down the shop and asks Man Suk to really consider taking over the bookstore and offers him a good price.

Man Suk goes and check out an empty shop lot of his future bookstore and bumps into Patrick. The empty lot is next to Patrick's cafe. Man Suk comments that the crowd at Patrick's cafe is quite good.

Man Suk goes home and discusses the idea with Yuk. However, Yuk says they don't have much cash for the capital. Man Suk suggest to refinance their house to the bank for the cash but Yuk disagrees. Man Suk says the bookstore plan is actually for Ming's future. He doesn't want Ming to remain a security guard all his life and wants Ming to take over the bookstore in the future.

Man Suk tells the children that he intends to take over the friend's bookstore. Alex asks Man Suk if he is serious about it and says that running a bookstore may be too tiring for him. However, Man Suk says that he can manage it. Man Suk also tells the children that he will be refinancing the house to get the capital to start the bookstore.

Alex and Hillary meet for lunch and they discuss the threats and attacks into the system by the hacker. Hillary and Alex both have the same suspicion on who the hacker might be. They hatch a plan to capture this person. During lunch, Alex receives an sms that another of their system was hacked.

The person Alex and Hillary suspect is K.O. Hillary thinks that K.O. is doing this to prolong her stay at the office and as a revenge towards Alex. Hillary decides to manipulate the current attack into email systems to trap K.O. and spread his email communication with the hackers for all to see.

Alex and Ming discuss about Man Suk's bookstore plan. The brothers do not agree with man Suk's idea to refinance the house. Alex comes up with a plan, that is he will provide the capital but wants Ming to tell their parents that the money comes from Ming.

Ming gave Man Suk a cheque for HKD 800,000 and told his family that he earns the money from buying shares. Alex and Man Suk say that Ming rarely invest in stocks but Ming tells them he profits because he has insider information. Man Suk then believes him and the family is happy that they do not have to refinance the house.

Man Suk is sad that Ming and Alex are not on speaking terms. Yuk consoles Man Suk, saying that the children are now adults, if they really get into a fight, there's nothing they can do that will stop the fight. Man Suk laments that if he is capable of single-handedly support and bring up the family, then Ming would not have to go to Mauritius to work. Ming would get better education and the brothers can get along better.

The next morning when Yuk goes to wake Ming up for breakfast, she discovers that he's gone. Ming left a note saying that he will replace his colleague who is sick for the morning shift duty. He will also be working his own shift in the afternoon/evening and will not be back for dinner.

Alex arrives at his office building and Ming opens the door for him. The two brothers do not greet one another and there was an awkward moment. Alex sees Hillary at the lift lobby and greets her. She informs Alex that she's dealing with the break up with K.O. quite well. K.O. then joins the both of them in the lift. Another awkward moment.

Hillary tenders her resignation and sends the letter directly to the HR department. K.O. finds out and managed to pull the letter back and questions Hillary about it. Hillary says she's very determined to leave and there's nothing K.O. can do to change her mind. K.O. accuses her of being in a relationship with Alex.

Alex goes over to Abbie's house for dinner. Patrick and Abbie console Alex and say Ming is an understanding and forgiving person. They advise Alex to give Ming a few days to cool down. Alex laments that Ming has always been a good brother to him and he is ashamed that he got so angry and scolded the brother who loves him dearly. Abbie suggests that Alex comes up with a strategy to apologise to Ming.

Ming, just like Alex, also avoids going home. He lies to Yuk saying that he is out berbequing with his colleagues when in fact he is dining alone at a restaurant. Coincidentally, Chung was there too and joined him. He revealed to her that he has an argument with Alex. Chung advises Ming to apologise by giving Alex a card. Chung asks Ming to write his heartfelt apology on the card and gave it to Alex.

Chung reminds Pansy to return her the HKD 100,000 she lend him before the end of the month as she needs it to pay her brother's school fees. Pansy assures Chung that she remembers it.

Ming prepares a "sorry" card for Alex and places the card on Alex's desk, while Alex was sleeping. Actually Alex was just pretending to sleep and knows that Ming came into his room. Ming goes back to his room only to discover his fully mended ship on his desk. (The ship is Ming's prized possession which he brought back from Mauritius and was broken during an argument with Chung!) Alex told Ming that the ship should be like how it used to be. Ming teases Alex for not being "creative" enough as he copies Sammi's idea and seek Chung's help. The two brothers made up and are on speaking terms again.

Yuk told the children that Man Suk is unwell. Man Suk says he has seen the Chinese Physician and the physician says he is not resting and sleeping well, and have too much to worry about which contributes to his bad state of health. Alex comment that Man Suk is a retiree, he should be very relaxed and has no worries. Man Suk says he is worried about his family and the children.

Alex and Ming gets the idea that Man Suk, Yuk and Sammi are putting on a show to get them to make peace. In turn Ming and Alex argue even more and reversed the prank on them. Ming and Alex then reveal that they know Man Suk only pretended to be unwell. Nonetheless, Man Suk and Yuk is happy to know that the sons have made up and are on good terms again.

On Hillary's last day at work, a hacker penetrates and attack three of their clients' system. While investigating the problems, K.O. barges in to the meeting room and reprimanded Alex in front of his peers. K.O. says Alex reacted too slowly to the problems and caused the clients' to sustain losses. Alex told K.O. that the most important thing at the moment is to solve the problems first. Hillary backs Alex up. She even offers to stay back (delay her resignation) to help the team solve the vulnerabilities in the system.

Ming brings some soup over to Chung's place for her. Chung was cutting out some sale coupons from a magazine. Ming asks her to go shopping together so they can both benefit from the coupons. While shopping, Ming and Chung realise that they are actually cut from the same cloth - they save on themselves but splurge when shopping for others. Chung received a call from Pansy who asks Chung to buy her a bottle of cream(?). Chung took the chance to remind Pansy to pay her back the HKD 100,000 Pansy borrowed earlier. Ming heard the conversation between Chung and Pansy and asks Chung about the loan. Ming warns Chung that Pansy might cheat her of her money, but Chung is confident that Pansy will not.

Chung received a call from her brother, informing her that he needs to pay his accommodation fees sooner than expected. Chung immediately informs Pansy. Pansy asks her colleague out to get back her money from the investment in China. But her colleague told her that they cannot get their money back as the money is all lost! Actually her colleague has the intention to cheat her since the beginning, it was Pansy who is stupid to fall for the scam.

Pansy has no choice but to tell Chung the truth. Chung was really upset and angry with Pansy when she knows that her best friend cheated her money. The two friends argue and Pansy threatens to move out. Chung did not stop her!
