EPISODE 25 (Last Episode)

The case continues but predictably Vincent wins the case with a majority of 5 jurors for him, 2 more against him. Anyway during his testimony he kinda confessed his love for Jess by saying how concerned he was and everything else. Jess was crying which was very touching. When Vincent was a-ok, everybody was very happy and it was the start of the mending of broken relationships.

Marco is very happy with Sister Na. Hung got back his license and his wife came back to be with him after Money told wife everything. Vincent ran after Jess and they became an item. Ben skated after Ling and they became an item. The entire series ended with all four happily roller skating as best friends they once were and jumping high up into the air.

I won't call it a very good episode but it was satisfying. Some highlights of this episode are ...

1. Ben went to see Vincent and Vincent asked Ben to be his lawyer and Ben heard what Vincent said and he tearfully said "I will never give up on you, so remember never give up on yourself". That was very touching.

2. Vincent apologising in court to his friends and confessing his concern for Jess

3. Jess scolding Ling after Ling dared to speculate that Vincent may have silenced that Crazy Panther for his own benefit, and Jess said "Of course it is unthinkable that after dating you he could have done all this for me!". Later they apologised to one another.

4. Ben telling Ling "I believe Vincent".

5. The almost end scene where Vincent ran after Jess, SMS-ed her and when Jess turned, there he was, smiling. It was a very happy ending for me.

If you're wondering about Vincent's career, he will be suspended for a while and whilst waiting to get back his license to practise law, Hung offered him a job at HK Firm for the time being and everybody forgave Vincent, Money included.

I like the ending, that final scene where they jumped high up (Raymond the highest, Myolie the lowest). I just like the ending.

I must mention about Jess tonight. She was definitely such a supportive person, very positive. I do not think she believed Vincent blindly but she believed him because she believed in his integrity the same way Ben believed him. Ling was disappointingly the skeptic and whilst it was alright to speculate Vincent's motive to kill Crazy Panther, but I thought she stepped over the line for even considering Vincent did it to cover his tracks. Vincent's actions may have all been unethical but he's not a murderer. Ling should know him enough to at least not pass such a haste judgment. The only crime he did against her was perhaps cheating on her. Cheating is not the same as murder. I was disappointed Ling would think that way.

As for the performances, I thought Sammul did badly in the more dramatic scenes and Raymond Lam definitely gave his best in here with his gentle voice, his trust in Vincent and his always almost crying eyes. The rest gave competent to mediocre performance.

Overall a very satisfying episode.

The final analysis and a much complete review of the characters, performances and plot will be in my review.

Thanks for reading the episodic thoughts. It was a pleasure sharing my thoughts with you night after night.
