The scene with Peem and his grandfather! So many things hit harder during the rewatch. Peem saying he will help Khem when the times comes, but the Grand Master warns him not to get involved. Sek used black magic and reveals that is what caused the death of Peem's mom. Peem uses white magic and his duty is to protect the village. Sek makes Peem promise not to get interfere with someone else's karma.

It was so fun seeing Peem using powers to destroy the ghosts, but we saw there was a physical cost that Peem tries to hid it even from Thong and Ake, waiting for them to leave before giving over to his exhaustion. This feels like foreshadowing. Peem's body can only handle so much contact with the divine.

Peem refusing to help Khem and revealing that Grand Master Sek made him promise not to get involved. And even when Khem begs, Peem firmly rejects him 😭

Charn acting on his own to find help when no one else was doing anything about the domestic violence.

Jet getting his vision back temporarily and being able to see Ake and Thong

Yod saving Khem from ghost... now we know why!

Yod going full stalker sitting on Khem's bed only to become enraged when he can't touch Khem. The episode ends when he dramatically confronts Peem.

This episode had a lot to say about domestic violence, but that's an entirely different post. It was heavy, but we appreciated the way this topic was explored and portrayed in this episode.

Favorite Scenes from episode two:

Favorite moment Khem won and knows it: Khem trying to win Peem over with his cooking only to be told it's alright and then dismissed coldly. Khem's cute little pout as he leaves and then Peem eagerly eating all the food as soon as he's gone only to get busted when Khem returns.

Favorite scene where Jet is too obvious: Jet making heart eyes at the sleeping Charn right in front of everyone's salads. 🤣 @alienwlw has an epic post of this moment!

Favorite scene that hurt: The bicycle scene... this was heavy the first time and even more so on the rewatch. Peem literally telling Khem, "Love isn't always enough to make things work. If being together only leads to problems, why bother?" He may be talking about Worn and Rae, and he may have been answering Khem's question, but we are sure this is what he has been saying to himself. Big feels. And then they gotta twist the knife by making us watch Khem cry!
