In the latest episode of F4 Thailand: Boys Over Flowers, Thyme witnesses Gorya and Ren’s embrace. Thyme then overhears a kid boasting about playing someone and lets all his anger loose.
Ren and Gorya reach the scene and in front of the crowd, Thyme denounces Ren saying F4 will now be F3. Gorya tries to intervene but he pushes her phone into her hands by way of explanation.
Gorya is frustrated with Thyme. He pushes her into an empty classroom to talk, but it doesn’t go well. Gorya stops short of punching her, giving up on her instead.
Tia, the school janitor, is called to clean up after Thyme, a student at the school. Thyme’s mother sends her lawyer with generous compensation just as those clips are being deleted from the internet. She is back in Thailand. ..
The mother of the deceased son visits him immediately after his death, but her demeanor is not sympathetic. She tells the son that if he does not control himself, she will do what she did to his sister. ..
At the flower shop, Kaning shares that Tesla has ghosted her and Ren stops by to see Gorya. At Thyme’s house, MJ and Kavin try to convince Thyme to make up with Ren. They show Thyme the news about Mira but he continues to rage.
Kavin is at his limit, but MJ can’t stand to see them break up. Kavin backs down, agreeing to speak to Ren. But if things don’t work out, they should go their separate ways.
Ren took Gorya out to have some fun, but they ended up failing. Ren then took over planning and brought Gorya to play games instead. ..
Kavin goes to the flower shop to ask Ren about a date, but he’s told that he’s out with Gorya. A date? Kavin gets annoyed and calls MJ, who then asks Kaning to help.
Ren and Gorya talk about Thyme and he astutely notes she’s happy even when complaining about him. She dodges when he asks who she would choose between them. When she has a moment with Ren, she thinks of Thyme. Kaning interrupts with a call.
As Kavin and Kanning wait for Gorya and Ren, they spot Tesla with another girl. Kavin consoles her, indicating he’ll help even the score. ..
Tesla’s girl recognizes F4 Kavin and it doesn’t take much to get between them. He then turns it on Tesla implying that Kaning is his girlfriend.
Tesla says that he’s met other F4 guys and refers to both Thyme and Gorya as “boyfriends.” He gets into a fight with Kavin, but Gorya comes to his defense. She refers to Thyme as her boyfriend, then leaves security.
At Thyme’s house, MJ is sitting outside his door trying to get through but to no avail. He finally exits when Ren calls to meet. ..
Ren and Thyme regroup at the old stadium. Ren can’t speak because Thyme has punched him in the face. Gorya is trying to stop it, but MJ is too injured to do anything. Thyme starts punching MJ, and then Ren. All four are fighting each other.
Gorya pauses, looking at the phone in her hand. She knows she should be sending an apology to Thyme, but something tells her that this is not the time or place. She instead sends a text message: “I’m sorry for what happened with Tesla. I understand now what happened.”
MJ and Kavin’s relationship has been on the rocks for a while now. Finally, after a bit more goading and bleeding, Thyme admits his feelings to MJ. Ren takes back everything he said, sharing that Gorya talked about Thyme all day.
After a heated argument, the two finally make up and Gorya appears. As they’ve clearly been fighting, she hits them all with her bag. Ren reminds her that she referred to Thyme as her boyfriend during the fight with Tesla. ..
Ren denies knowing about the plan, but Thyme insists he did. F2 asks him if he’s sure, and Ren says he is. Thyme then admits that he was behind the plan all along and that F2 was just using him.
Gorya, the player from Thyme, apologises for not trying to understand him and says sorry too. He closes off the stadium and says he won’t use violence or red cards to solve problems anymore.
Gorya arrives home and her mother greets her.
The Episode Review
This one should have been titled, ‘The Flower Boys Erupt,’ as everyone is pushed to the brink. Thyme is angry with Ren and Gorya, MJ and Kavin are fed up with Thyme, Ren is generally a mess and Gorya explodes when Tesla dares malign Thyme. Everyone landing at the stadium by close is exactly right.
We kick off with Thyme spotting the Gorya-Ren hug and King Kong-like, lashing at everything in his path. He and Gorya have it out but it doesn’t resolve anything. And Ren, who seems to be drifting, tests the water with Gorya. But what is Ren really doing here? Dew Sutivanichsak nails this, keeping us guessing until the end. The live comments on YouTube were just exploding. In fact, well done to all the guys for some pretty convincing fight scenes.
Ren was on the fence, as for him, either result is a win-win. If Gorya happens to have feelings for him, she’s a girl he likes and respects. Things could be worse. If, conversely, she has feelings for Thyme, he could hit him over the head with them. This too is how it’s played out in previous versions. Ren/Rui/etc is cute but for the most part wishy-washy until this point. Here’s where he finally stands up and is counted.
Ren has successfully gotten the two brothers back together after a lifetime of Thyme wreaking havoc. Kavin and MJ were just chasing everyone around. ..
Ren blesses all and swans into the background until Gorya appears. Ren knows that Gorya is coming and hands over next steps. ..
Thyme’s mother has been planning her move for some time now, and it’s not going to be an easy task. She’ll have to leave her home, her family, and everything she knows behind to start a new life in a new place. But she’s determined to make the best of it, and that includes finding new friends and making the most of her time in the city.
