TVB Eye in the Sky Episode Thoughts (Episode 7,8,9,10)

In order to catch up with my episode thoughts I have decided to cram these four episodes into one post and it will be as succinct as possible.
Episode 7.



So back to the scene where the hotel boss arrives at his room and looks at Terry directly! He goes, "Who's is it?" and it was Miss Zhu who was trying to vacuum his room. He tells her "No need I am a bit tired now you can clean tomorrow" and then Miss Zhu walks off but then the hotel boss could hear her heavy steps and she explains, "Oh it was because I am hearing high heels and I went to the 'Meeting you in the dark' event'. Hotel boss replies, "Oh that's good you went but did the guy who tried to flirt with you go as well? It's good to meet people but make sure that he is a good person. Last time just by hearing his voice I could already told that he's not a good bloke." Miss Zhu then went, "Of course. He has a flat nose, terrible smile and thinks his top stuff. Why the hell would I fall for him?"

Pause. Quite a funny moment after the climax. Tony again is effective with his expressions as "Really? What did you go?"

Continue. Anyway Terry urges Miss Zhu to not tell anyone about what happened and she goes, "Don't worry I don't want you to get into any trouble".

Poor Miss Zhu.

Terry then has a discussion with Nik back at the house. Nik now said there are three possibilities:
1. The diamond is not at the hotel
2. The diamond is at the hotel but don't know where it is
3. The diamond is at the hotel but don't know where it is on the hands of who

Terry visits Agatha's detective agency and tries to flirt back with her. Nothing much to comment from here so I shall digress. Jenny tries to follow the daughter and follows her all the way to her residence. Jenny got stopped by the security guard and she said she was looking for her dog when in fact she was looking at where the daughter was living. Jenny reports this back to Agatha and Agatha urges Jenny to investigate more first before telling the mom.

The episode moves on with a scene of a car driving by and detecting the dead body of a young lady. It turns out she was badly tortured and malnourished. Madam Wong a.k.a Scarlett a.k.a Lin Xia Wei tries to get advice from Szeto Shun as to how to solve the case and Shun gives her a few tips and she eventually finds out the identity of the dead girl.

In the meanwhile Madam Wong visits Szeto Shun as a plan to get Madam Chik to convince him to return back to the police force. Madam Wong pleads, "Please Szeto, come back. We really need you. It is such as pity for a talent like you to not be a policeman." Szeto Shun of course said, "I will not return until the day I retrieve my innocence".

Anyway Jenny follows the daughter again and it turns out her boyfriend cheated on her. Later on the daughter tells Jenny to get lost and stop following her. Jenny tells Szeto that the daughter is nowhere to be seen and they suspect she was kidnapped by someone.

Jenny visits the plan where you get an abortion and they didn't tell her much about what happened to the daughter. Jenny then notices that there's a CCTV near the cafe stall and a taxi woman approaches her and said that she drove the daughter to her destination and offered Jenny a lift to the place.

Meanwhile, Szeto and Scarlett were visiting a place where they suspect it was the guy who killed the dead lady and it turns out it wasn't him. Szeto calls Jenny and asks her where is she and Jenny said she is with a taxi driver going to the daughter's place and the taxi woman tells her that she's there soon and Jenny ends the call...

Jenny goes in the place and she finds the daughter locked and badly hurt in the dark. Jenny switches on the lights and tries to cut the lock but as she was checking through the items she found a photo of the taxi woman and her daughter! (Meaning the taxi woman was the one who kidnapped the daughter) and immediately we see the taxi woman behind Jenny with a bat or whatever and it ends!

Another cliffhanger. A very exciting episode. My opinion about everyone's performances hasn't changed so kudos to everyone. The only thing is for maybe Jenny to look more shocked when she saw the photo. In all honesty I would of been shaking my legs with my jaw dropping and going, "Oh Shit!" but she didn't.

Episode 8: 

The taxi woman hits Jenny and Jenny becomes unconscious. Szeto tries to call her but no answer from Jenny and he suspects that she is in danger. Szeto eventually finds out about the taxi woman and they go to her place. They meet the taxi woman and she tells him that they go find Jenny and the daughter themselves, whom are both going to die from starvation.

Szeto hears from the taxi woman, "Rain, rain, the more rain they more quickly they will die!" and then realises that Jenny and the daughter must be close near the house and he finds them. Happy ever after right?

The series moves on with the appearance of Vivien Yeo who potrays the a mysterious sexy looking girl. Fan Fate and the senior hotel manager gets wowed by her entrance and they realise from the staff members that she does yoga nude. Yes nude yoga. Fan Fate tries to deliver room service to her and the senior hotel manager gets punched out by her.

Nik and Terry now knows about Vivien Yeo who is 'Hong Shen' and they suspect that she was indeed the mysterious girl who shot fire at them back at Manila.

Anyway both Shun and Nik's birthday are soon and Nik wanted to celebrate his birthday with Shun and the family but they decide to have their own birthday dinner without Nik. Nik then calls Terry so he can hang out with him for birthday celebration but Terry was going to hang out with Fa (Agatha).

What about grandma?

Nik was celebrating by himself at home and he gets excited when he got a phone call from his dad and who asked him where he was and he said, "Oh just hanging out at home" and happily waits for daddy to invite him to dinner but he said back, "Oh that's good. Remember to record Mei Dek Ma's program for us." and Nik was highly disappointed.

Turns out they were giving a surprise birthday and Nik got moved by the three of them. Shun's parents then even told Nik to make him as their stepfather and stepmother and Nik becomes teary and touched. They then decide to take a family photo and Nik smiles happily.

Pause. A very very very good acting moment by Ruco who again did a great job by looking moved. All he really used was his eyes and facial expressions and that was enough to show his emotions.

Continue. Nik happily visits Terry and tells him about his happy day and then asks, "Where's my birthday present now".

Serious music is on and we see Hor Yee Gu (the former midwife who sold Nik) and she got a phone call that her son was arrested but in the police station she wasn't and then she got scolded by her son. Hor Yee Gu looked upset and heartbroken when her son told her to not call her again and hanged up. What was more heartbreaking was when she returned home and Terry whose face was covered ran away with all her money and threw all the cash down. Hor Yee Gu runs over in distress and she loses all the money with the homeless people taking it.

Ruco watches looking satisfied.

End. What a contrast. From Nik being happy and acting like a child to being cruel and acting like a person who is filled with hatred. Whilst I don't pity Hor Yee Gu for what she's done I don't agree with Nik. She was basically living a rough life now and Nik really wanted her to have no money, homeless and no support at all. You may say that she deserved it but it just shows Nik is someone who doesn't like to move on. He already got his wish to sort of reunite with his family again and everything would have been happy ever after if only he stopped but he has no intent of doing so.

As for Episode 9, I don't have much to recap or comment since I can't remember much about this episode except for the last part where:

The hotel boss invited Hon Sheng for a dinner to apologise for the senior manager who was trying to perve at her and she walks out of her room. This gives an opportunity for Nik to sneak into her room. Meanwhile Szeto calls Nik to ask him where he is and to remind him to go to his place later and Nik lied that he was patrolling the swimming pool when indeed he was at Hon Sheng's room.

Szeto becomes suspicious with Nik and we see Szeto installing a spy cam at Nik's room. He looks at the monitor and Nik's was on his phone that was buffering and Szeto was eager to find out what he was trying to load...

Not much to comment except finally some progression with the story and how impressive Kevin Cheng is as Szeto. Will explain more later on.

Episode 10.

Szeto was spying on Nik to see what he was doing and Nik was only viewing a game. Nik is not dumb and he knows that Szeto knows.

Nik plays dumb on the coming days where he just exercises with Szeto spying on him the whole time until he got tired of doing so and stopped spying on him.

What more do I remember? Susan Tse was having a discussion with Nik and she was curious about how come Hon Sheng was so mysterious. Nik promises to help Susan and he follows Hon Sheng at the mall who  changed clothes as someone else. Nik got Susan to come to the scene and made Hon Sheng realise that Susan was following her only and then left.

Nik goes back to the hotel and notices three mysterious dark skinned men who was following Szeto. They followed Szeto who was on his way to go to a dinner date with Jenny. The three men trap Szeto and say, "Don't move!!!". At the trash site Szeto says, "I am not the person you are looking for" (obviously they are looking for Nik when he looked like Szeto. Nik comes to the rescue and they manage to escape with Terry.

One special moment to take notice of was when Nik got shot in the arm Szeto could feel it as well and he got an expression of, "Why am I feeling this as well. Why is this happening?!?!" and Kevin Cheng proves how he does having acting chops.

Szeto knows that Terry knows Nik and he follows Terry to his place and then tells grandma to stay at her room while she talks to Terry. Jenny who was at the cinema tried to call Szeto but no reply. Tavia did well in the sense he was becoming worried, disappointed, feeling hopeless, waiting anxiously and just in a low mood... Szeto tried to interrogate Terry and then it Nik came running and went,

"Leave Terry alone. This has got nothing to do with her.

Yes I am not called Nik. I am called Cheung Gok Fai. I am your biological twin brother."

and Szeto looks shocked, speechless and trying to grasp what he just heard.

End.

I am liking this series now as it is becoming more entertaining to watch. I'll let you guys know more what about I have to say about this series once I get to watch Episode 11 and see what happens!
