she attracts the attention of Ape Dad and they get married. LOL! I love these nicknames for Jin-kook's dad. There's Dumb Dad (DD), Golfer Dad (GD), and now we have Ape Dad (AP)! The list just keeps on going ;D! DD needs to take a chill pill. I'm so mad at how he keeps on yelling at HS lately. HS and JK just go out for one day and then DD gets all mad for nothing. DD and ESM go out golfing overnight and they of course can't get yelled at because they're the elders. I miss those days when DD and HS got along. It's all ESM's fault...her and her manipulative ways

Aaaaaah! Illumination. Now I understand how she (ESM) wormed her way into the family. So, Jin-kook must have decided that poisoning his mother wasn't such a great crime, after all.
Men. ;D

....now we have Ape Dad (AP)! The list just keeps on going... My Evil Sister once had a boyfriend who was sort of a counterculture type, and they both took "alternative" names--his was "Another Person" so we all just called him AP for short. Doesn't that sound sort of like a Korean appellation? They're always calling someone "That Person." I think Ape Dad is another person from his pre-evil-mama-comeback days. Okay, here you guys have to have mercy on me, because I know I'm a pain, but the last thing I saw in the episode from last Tuesday morning was ESM in the car with AP, when they were on their way to the golf outing. (This must be prior to the incident where HS left JS home alone.) They are discussing why HS could possibly resent ESM (I laughed a lot about that one), and ESM was talking about how she "gave" HS an expensive car for being so kind to JS, and she suddenly yelled, "That's it! I figured out why she's like this!" (or some words to that effect). Which, of course, was the end of the episode. I won't get to see the very next episode, so, what did she think it was? Here's a tangent--I am increasingly delighted with the "woman, feedme" dad--the one who was against adopting the baby at first. The scene where he feeds the baby after everyone else ignores his crying in the night was charming. What a sweetie. Bo PS - I just realized, "AP" is a typo on Lovely's part! I didn't even notice (Ape Dad should be "AD"). How funny.

Hmm...I'm not sure about the car scene either. It was Jin-kook's car...so was it ESM who bought it for him or something? Then ESM gave Mr. Park the heads up to take JK's car. So JK had to go and get another car. So when his former car returns with the gold bars and jewelry inside (shhh...don't tell ESM ;D!), HS wanted the car for herself b/c it holds precious memories for her. ESM said ok, but that the car has to go to Jin-soo when he gets his license. So was that car paid by ESM?

She said that that's probably were Hesoo found the gold bars and jewelry and that since she found them she's trying to boss them around. That's why they keep wanting to find out how they found the gold bars.

Doesn't it seem reasonable to you guys that at some point Jin-kook could say, as politely as possible, "Why do you need to know so badly how we got the gold and jewelry back?" Of course, this is just the sort of thing that would make ESM and AD gasp and sputter and berate the kids for being disrespectful, but IMO, the point should at least be made that it's strange that the parents are making such a big deal out of it. You know, put a little pressure on them to justify their suspicions. Jeez, it's like this crook doesn't even realize she's saying, "It's not fair that you intercepted the loot my accomplice was trying to smuggle back to me! YOU should be ashamed of YOURselves; you have to respect me, because I'm the stepmother!" AD has completely forgotten that it IS, in face, swag, loot, booty, ill-gotten gains stolen from the family business.
ESM is so transparent in her awfulness. OTOH, I like how this is giving Jin-kook an opportunity to play mind games with her.

Lucy, didn't he say that at one point? Politely, as usual. (Loot, swag, etc....hee, hee, heeee...) Thanks, you guys, for letting me know. Usually, I can fill in the blanks but this seemed so specific.
Lah, la, la, only 9 more hours until the penultimate episode of WLS...in case any of you lost count... ;D

If he did, how did they respond? sputteringly? I'd love to know if it was just "MYOB" or what.

ESM said ok, but that the car has to go to Jin-soo when he gets his license. So was that car paid by ESM? I think originally the car belonged to JK, but because of the cash flow problems they had when ESM took the money, he opted to sell his car and get a newer, cheaper model. Than when ESM found out, about the car, she asked Mr. Park to look into the matter of buying it for her use. Unfortunately, ESM's brother dies and her course of life changes. Mr. Park leaves with the embezzled money and as a last favor to her, actually buys the car for ESM and place the jewelry and gold bars in the trunk. The backfire to that was HS asks ESM if she could have the car for herself because of sentimental reasons and gets it. Too bad for you ESM and good for you, Mr. Park. ;D ;D ;D

They really need to have a face-off, better yet a dance off: ESM & GD vs. Hesoo and Jinkook well start off w/the twist, continue w/a paso doble followed by a fox trot and then on to an interpretive dance number. Winner keeps the gold bars, loser keeps their mouths shut. What points for which categories? For the first three, DD and ESM definitely have it in the bag, but Jinkook and Heesoo might take the last one. Since it's more creative (and I want them to win) I vote the last one be worth four times what the other three are worth. I thought she had admitted to it as well, at least to Jinkook. What everyone else is saying is right as well - she was hired as a secretary and then took care of his mom while she was dying, leading one to suspect that she was the poisoner. Jinkook's mom's family had a different company but ESM's mom ran away with all their money so I think it went bankrupt. But DD says that he was a "lackey" for Jinkook's mom in her new business, the loan company, so I can only assume that she built that one up from scratch. A monkey trainer? It's his fault that Dukbae is still such a stupidhead. EDIT: Argh, I missed a whole page of replies somehow. I am the talented one. Yeah, ESM pretty much had figured out that the gold and jewelry came from the trunk of the car. And it's pretty obvious too when you think about it - they gave the jewelry back to her right after Heeso got the car. This would've been solved if Jinkook had been a little eviller and let Heesoo keep the jewelry. I don't see why they've been so bratty recently. "AD" keeps yelling about how he's poor and doesn't have anything (which is apparently how he can spend all his days golfing) and ESM yells about how it's her money (stolen of course) and both of them yell about how Heesoo is corrupting Jinkook and forcing him to spend time with her family and giving them money. And I'm still hung up on the fact that they're yelling at her about going out every day - but the only reason they're yelling is that whenever she goes out they can't go out every day alone while leaving Jinsoo home for her to care for even though it's not her responsibility. And just last episode they were talking about how horribly Heesoo would treat him if anything happened to them - because of course there was no precedent of how Heesoo treated Jinsoo when ESM was MIA and AD was in a coma. rant rant rant rave rant!

everybody seems to be forgetting that hee's pregnant. i mean, jk cares about people having their stomachs filled and ESM and Dumb Dad care about a babysitter for JS so that they can enjoy their life in their old age. but no one seems to care about hee and the child that she's bearing. i mean, yeah i agree, starving yourself is not the answer to making people understand you, but hee's not just eating for one. she has to take of her baby too. this is really inconsiderate on evry1z part.

LOL to so many of these dad comments.... on a reality note, can you imagine how long it takes to rehearse these scenes... these actors have to crack up with how they must treat each other.
The other nite Jinsoo had a real problem keeping his food in his mouth... how many times did they have to rehearse that scene to get it right...
and ApeDad... the expressions on his face just crack me up. You know how all these actors are recycled for these dramas.... Can you imagine ApeDad as a Joonsang-Dad type ... not so much!
on with the show!
