Seul Bi is rescued from Jae Seok by Woo Hyun. Sung Yeol manages to open the door for them just before collapsing. At the hospital, they learn he's exhausted, but fine. Once Sung Yeol's up and around, he asks Woo Hyun for help getting his parents back together -- he's found a divorce petition in his house. At gym class, the kids make plans to help Young Eun's family pay for her little sister's surgery. Jae Seok, watching the students from a balcony, is given a wristband by Da Yool, who tells him he should have been nicer. They hold a fundraiser through Woo Hyun's rice cake shop. Even Jae Seok is put to work, helping prepare orders after his former lackeys defend him against bullies from another school. The teachers take up a collection to add to the sum. Young Eun is ungrateful at first, but Se Na makes up with her and she accepts the money.


Young Eun and Se Na become friends again

To take Sung Yeol's mind off things, the kids go to a winter amusement park. Back at home Woo Hyun shares a moment with Ji Hye, telling her he likes her mothering. Sung Yeol is back to his old self, able to eat a meal with Seul Bi without going nuts, wishing his dad well as the cop heads off to work.  At Ji Hye's birthday celebration Seul Bi, Woo Hyun, and Sung Yeol pretend to be in favor of the divorce in order to shock them into realizing that the reasons for splitting up were silly. 

Sung Yeol decides to run away for awhile, to clear his head and come back a better person. As he crosses the street, Sunbae arranges for a truck to hit him. Woo Hyun pushes Sung Yeol out of the way, and Seul Bi comes to hold Woo Hyun and they brace for impact. At the last minute, Sunbae interposes himself between the truck and the kids and uses his powers to protect them. At the hospital, an injured Woo Hyun learns that Sung Yeol is in a coma and Seul Bi is nowhere to be found...


With his last ouce of strength, Sung Yeol opens the door.

MY TAKE

Okay, I take it back, Jae Seok is apparently reformed, even if they did have to drag him by his ear (literally) to get him to work in the rice shop. I really thought that guy was just a bad guy all around, since just earlier in the episode he was going to blow Seul Bi's secret wide open and didn't feel bad about it. I'm guessing he just asks himself the same things as everyone else -- "Who am I? Where am I going? How long have I got?"


Seul Bi, Woo Hyun, and Sung Yeol enjoying themselves.

And yay, Sung Yeol is back! But they had to ruin it with tragedy. I think we've seen enough to frown about, don't you guys? But I guess they had to have something else go wrong to keep the tension up. The tear-jerker ending was kind of annoying, but I was glad to see Sung Yeol smiling, Woo Hyun back with Seul Bi, and the three together again. Here's what I don't understand: if he was back to normal, why leave? He seemed to be playing the part of the good friend, loyal brother, loving son rather well. I dunno, I guess they needed a reason for him to be crossing the street?



Sunbae had to get involved one more time. Only at the end, it seems like he tried to protect them? Maybe because Seul Bi was with them, and he realized that he would do anything for her? But I thought his powers were taken away by the President of Earth Angels. Maybe he was just prohibited from using them and not actually de-powered? But last episode, he tried something and it didn't work and...never mind, I'm probably overthinking it. It did seem like he got hit by the truck, too, while trying to protect them. Can he be hurt that way?


Da Yool gives a band to Jae Seok. "You should have been nicer," she tells him.

Whoa. We have one episode left. One episode where they get to untangle what plot threads remain. Will Sung Yeol's stepmom and dad stay together? Where's Seul Bi? Will we see her again? Is Sung Yeol okay? And what happened to Sunbae? Here's hoping they end on a high note. I'm deducting points for the messed up ending after teasing us with happiness.
