Mother.

What brings you here at this hour?

Here, take this.

- Oh, boy. - Okay. My goodness.

What is this, Mother?

I'm here...

to live with you guys.

What?

Why are you so surprised?

Why can't I visit my son and daughter-in-law?

Don't get me wrong, Mother.

It's so early, and you didn't call us.

Gosh, this bag... Oh, boy.

It's quite heavy, Mother.

Were you surprised...

when I said I was here to live with you guys?

It's not that, but...

Anyway, what happened? Did you and Eun Sook get into an argument?

Yes, a big one.

Even so, you can't just pack up and leave...

(Pureun Bank)

(Hwa Kyung)

Have you already decided?

Chang Yi, we've got a problem.

A problem? What is it?

Apparently, Mother and Eun Sook got into a big brawl.

A brawl?

Watch what you say, will you?

Gosh, we can worry about that later.

She's here now.

Calm Eun Sook down and send her home.

Gosh, this is so frustrating.

Eun Sook isn't the one who's here.

Mother is at our place right now.

- My mother? - Yes, she even brought her stuff.

She said she'd live here with us. What will you do?

What can we do?

We'll just take good care of her from now on.

What? Hello?

Chang Yi! My gosh.

My goodness, Mother! Just leave it. I'll do it.

You should wash the dishes right away.

If you just leave them,

it'll be hard to clean them later on.

By the way,

how come your housekeeper isn't here today?

Oh, her father is very ill.

She won't be able to work for a while.

All right. Go make yourself some coffee, which you love.

I'll finish this first...

and have some rice with water or something.

Don't stand there looking so anxious.

I didn't come here to die.

My gosh, Mother.

Goodness.

But...

- See you later, Father. - See you later.

Oh, wait.

Kyung Jun and Se Jun. You guys get going first.

- See you later. - See you later.

You two, the management, take a seat.

I noticed that our competitor...

beat us in sales in this quarter.

Oh, right. The thing is,

they're using aggressive marketing tactics.

We're looking for a new model too. We need a popular celebrity.

I didn't ask you to list excuses.

I know that it must be a headache for you two.

However,

Do you think we can beat them with marketing alone?

You're wrong.

Then how...

Goodness.

You two should figure it out.

Do a good job.

You know, nothing scares me more...

than hearing my father say, "Do a good job."

That is exactly what I wanted to say.

Have a good day.

Oh, Ms. An.

Yes, ma'am.

Today,

please go through my shoes...

and put aside the ones for the charity event.

How many pairs, ma'am?

About ten?

No problem, ma'am.

- Have a good day. - You too.

Yes, Father.

Still no word from Grandma?

Please call me when she comes home, okay?

All right.

Is everything okay at home?

You've been on the phone all morning.

Well...

Have you had a chance to think about what I said yesterday?

That we should scrap it and start over?

We won't have enough time to do that.

And we don't have an alternative plan.

- Yeong I. - Yes, Ms. Kim.

You've been taking a lot of personal phone calls today.

I'm sorry.

What are you waiting for? Return to your desk if you're done.

Yes, ma'am.

Hey, I think something's going on with her family.

We're at work now, Intern Jang Kyung Jun.

I can't wait until the intern competition is over.

They spend so much time together.

Food Product Development. Kim Hae Mi speaking.

Yes, I'll be right up.

Ms. Im.

Yes, what is it?

I'll be in the kitchen.

Why do you need to go to the kitchen?

To get some ideas for the beverage product.

- Sure. - Thank you.

I'll go with him.

Right, didn't you and Kyung Jun go out for dinner last night?

Oh, yes.

But you look...

Did something happen?

The thing is...

You can tell me everything.

Who knows? I may be able to help you.

I think Kyung Jun...

still only thinks of me as a friend, ma'am.

I was wondering why you looked upset.

You see, Kyung Jun...

doesn't open up to others easily.

You were pretty much...

the only friend he kept close in the US...

for the past three years. Am I wrong?

Yes, that's right.

Believe in the power of time.

"The power of time?"

I assure you...

that it's much stronger than you think.

How many times have I told you? We don't have enough time.

By scraping it and starting over, I meant...

You know, the competition isn't just about beverages.

It's for PB beverage products.

So instead of only focusing on the word "beverage,"

let's remind ourselves that it's about PB products...

and think about our approach again.

What do you mean...

So for example, are you saying...

we should broaden our approach to include the packaging and logo too?

Ms. Lee, have you come up with some kind of special idea?

- No. - Goodness.

I thought you had a brilliant idea.

Who told you to scrap it altogether...

and start over from scratch?

Was it that guy you know again?

No, it wasn't.

He's just some grandpa I know.

Let's dedicate 1 more day to brainstorming. Just 1 more day.

That "grandpa" you know.

I don't know how long you've known him,

but don't get close to him.

He knows nothing. I can't believe he told you to start over.

Ms. Lee.

Gosh. Oh, boy.

We asked for one more serving.

Oh! I'm sorry.

It'll be right out. One moment, please.

We'd like to settle up.

Oh, sure!

Here you go.

Yes, thank you.

I guess your wife isn't here today. You're so busy.

- Thank you. - We enjoyed the food.

- Take care. - Bye.

I'm running around like a headless chicken without Mother around.

Mother! Have you looked into where Mother could be?

I checked every single sauna...

in this neighborhood and the nearby areas but couldn't find her.

You should've checked the motels too.

There are so many motels in this area.

Do you think my legs are made of steel? Am I Superman?

Hey, whose fault is it that she packed up and left?

Honey!

(So Bok Hee's Tasty Beef Bone Soup)

Go inside.

I'll go look for her if she isn't back by the evening.

Excuse me. When will we get our soup?

Oh, I'm sorry. One moment, please.

Honey! Goodness, honey.

Just go home.

Goodness. Then you'll resent me even more later.

Hurry up and serve the soup.

Okay.

Grandma, when will Great-grandma be back?

I came home early because I wanted to play with Great-grandma.

Oh, well...

She's away at the moment. She'll be back soon, okay?

Mother! What are you doing?

We have a robot vacuum.

Goodness. I'm done cleaning the living room.

Gosh. Oh, boy.

Oh, my.

The floor is sparkling clean.

Right?

I cleaned the bathroom too.

Goodness. There was soap scum all over the floor.

I nearly slipped and fell.

Oh, no.

And the toilet was... My goodness.

I couldn't even sit on the toilet seat while peeing.

The housekeeper hasn't been able to work for a while.

I was going to do it myself,

but you came.

You can't clean with those hands.

You've never done any housework.

I know, Mother. I don't know how to do anything.

You must clean every corner of your house...

to always look sparkling clean.

If you don't do anything even just for half a day,

you see dust everywhere...

Those who have never done it don't know what it's like.

Anyway, why did you call me?

I don't see any cauldrons.

I wanted to boil the dishcloths.

Why do you need to boil the dishcloths, Mother?

My gosh, what do you mean?

You don't boil your dishcloths?

Well, the housekeeper just...

Can't we use them a few times and chuck them...

Can't we just do that?

Oh, dear.

Then you don't boil your underwear either?

What? No.

Oh, Mother! Our washer has the boiling function.

So we can use it to do everything,

as far as I know.

What? You wash your dishcloths in your washing machine?

Your electricity bill must be very high!

What are you waiting for?

- Sorry? - Go pick up a cauldron.

Mother, where would I go to get a cauldron all of a sudden?

Just stay home and rest up. I'll go buy one myself.

Oh, no.

I'll go.

Director Jang, let me try.

Oh, sure.

Here.

You can do all sorts of things.

Thank you.

Someone taught me this trick many years ago.

Oh, it's on me.

To thank you for this.

Really? I wanted to treat you.

Thank you.

I'd like this one.

Thank you so much for telling me why I got the internship.

Really?

Then treat me next time.

I will, Director Jang.

Director Jang.

Yes, ma'am.

Hello, ma'am.

I'll be off, then.

Now, I know why.

- What do you mean? - She's a lot like her.

From her looks to the things she does.

She reminds me of Ja Young.

- Mom. - You'd better watch out.

This is your warning.

Be careful unless you want her to end up like Ja Young too.

Oh, boy.

Finally, we found this dress.

It'll make Mi Ri Nae so happy, right?

Do Sik, you're a good uncle.

Oh, you think I'm a good uncle?

Yes, I give you that.

I hope Yeong I likes this too.

She won't throw it on the floor, right?

"I want my 30,000 dollars back, you jerk!" She might say that.

What? You think so?

No. What do you take my sister-in-law for?

It was a joke, okay?

Look at you all scared.

Hey, have they reported your grandmother missing yet?

My father said we should wait until this evening.

I wonder where Grandma is right now.

Your mother said something she should've never said.

She told her to live with her younger son.

I'd pack up and move out too, if I heard that.

Come to think of it, you're just like your mother.

- Me? - Yes.

You're both such troublemakers.

I was hoping Yeong I would move out.

What does that mean?

And you're dense, just like your mother.

Hey, cook some ramyeon. Three packets.

Why? Gosh.

You said you'd go check the motels in the area.

Eun Jin, my friend.

My friend of 20 years is coming to my rescue.

Hey! You shouldn't grab a woman's hand like that.

Hey, don't be absurd. You're a woman?

Are you crazy? Am I a man then?

(Eun Ho Pediatric Clinic)

Do Young. Is your grandmother's phone still off?

Yes, I think she turned it off.

I'm done with my appointments for today, right?

Yes. Why?

I was thinking of closing early so I could stop by the restaurant.

Your father must be working alone.

No way. You want to help him?

Yes. I'm good at washing dishes.

My mom's there.

Oh, right. My mom said she'd go check some motels with Do Sik.

Then come with me, Eun Ho.

The restaurant is very busy in the evening.

Okay, let's do that.

Nice.

Hi, Eun Ho.

Hey, Yeong I. Do Young and I will go help out at the restaurant.

You can work late if you need to.

- Really? - This is...

a critical time in your career. You know that, right?

Focus on work.

Okay, thanks for helping out.

What's that guy you know helping you with this time?

It's none of your business.

Ms. Lee, are you mad at me?

Because I'm against scraping it and starting over?

Mad at you? Me? No.

Anyway, who are you to say such a thing?

What?

What did I say?

You were so mean earlier.

Who do you think you are?

Why tell me not to get close to Grandpa?

Have you even met him?

What was that about?

She is mad at me.

Are you two fighting?

Oh, no.

It looks like you are.

Getting into a fight before deciding on your item?

You two really are in trouble.

If you want to fight, do it after you decide on your item.

You know you have to present your proposal soon, right?

The team's pride is at stake.

Yes, Ms. Kim.

He has no idea.

Grandpa is such a nice man.

But then again, Mr. Jang isn't wrong.

Maybe I am wasting time that we don't even have.

But why do I keep feeling like we're missing something?

They're for a charity event,

so pick out the ones that look new and put them in the box.

Sure thing, Ms. An.

My gosh. These are so pretty.

What are you doing right now?

Ma'am, why are you here at this hour?

I asked you what you were doing!

Ma'am, you're back.

What's the matter?

The shoes looked so nice that I tried them on without thinking.

I'm really sorry. Please forgive me just this once, ma'am.

Is this what you two do when I'm not at home?

No, ma'am.

She shouldn't have done that. Please forgive her.

Ms. An.

Yes, ma'am.

Those shoes.

Throw them out. Now.

I think the other teams are busy working on their proposals.

Our interns are in deep trouble.

Oh, Kyung Jun said you'd choose between...

a healthy juice and a traditional drink.

Am I wrong?

If we choose one of those two, do you think...

we can win the 10,000 dollars...

Do you think we could win?

I'm not sure if it's brilliant enough, but who knows?

If they do a good job with their presentation,

they could win 2nd or 3rd place. Right, Ms. Im?

No! We have to win first place no matter what.

Just do your best. Winning 2nd or 3rd place is still pretty good.

Let's go.

Yes, Ms. Im.

No! We must win first place no matter what.

- We must win... - You're very determined, Ms. Lee.

Oh, Director Jang. Aren't you leaving for the day?

I still have to go through some reports.

I see. I'll be off, then.

Wait.

Well, Ms. Lee.

Feel free to visit my office whenever you need my help...

or when you want to talk to me about something.

Really?

Yes, you're always welcome in my office.

Sweet!

I'll see you tomorrow, Director Jang.

"Sweet?"

Aren't you leaving too?

Let's go. I'll drive you home.

I want to talk to you.

I have to stay late today. Get going.

Hae Mi, are we going to keep being this awkward around each other?

I confessed my feelings to you, and you flat out rejected me.

Did you think I'd keep being sweet to you and follow you around?

I have a thing called pride, and I'm a woman too.

Now, you know.

All right. Let's talk when you're not so upset with me.

For now, I guess we can't dine out,

go for coffee, and go shopping together like we used to,

but I believe in the three years that we've known each other.

You believe in time?

That's right.

Our friendship we've built for three years won't crumble down easily.

Let me sulk just for a few days.

Also,

I will not give up on you, ever.

How could they not even call me once...

after sending Mother to me?

Fine, I'll call them.

Hi, Yeong I. It's me.

Hello, Auntie Hwa Kyung. How are you?

Not well, obviously.

What do you mean?

Mother spent the whole day at my place.

How does everyone there not even care?

What? Grandma is there now?

Yes! Since this morning!

She said she was told to go live at my place.

That's odd. Father and Mother said they called everyone.

Gosh, forget it. Yeong I, hurry up and help me get this sorted out.

Because of Mother, I had to step out to buy a cauldron.

A cauldron? What for?

She said she had to boil the dishcloths.

What?

That's not important.

Get this sorted out! I have to go.

My gosh.

They say you can't see what's right under your nose.

Anyway, what a relief.

Maru's mom!

Yeong I?

The manager told me.

Congratulations on your new job, Yeong I.

Thank you. I owe it all to you.

Why didn't you tell me?

Even without my posts,

you would've gotten the job.

I was always so grateful to you...

for finding what I needed in my stead.

From soft drinks to juices, it'd be so nice...

if I could tell...

exactly what kind of beverage I grabbed.

But I suppose this world is just too busy...

to be kind to someone like me.

Ma'am.

It's not easy to meet someone like you...

who cares and is willing to spare me their time...

in this busy world.

Thank you for everything.

I'll be off, then.

Get home safely.

I found it.

I found the answer.

Scrap it and start over?

Gosh, my head hurts.

Yes.

We organized the storage room today.

But your walking stick and braille book...

Thank you, Ms. An.

(Diphthongs and Abbreviations)

Gosh.

That grandpa is a genius.

(100 Dollars)

Mr. Jang, I found the answer.

I found the answer, Ms. Lee.

(The Love in Your Eyes)

Whose idea was this?

- Ms. Lee came up with... - Mr. Jang...

No way. That can't be.

Her?

What am I thinking right now?

I'll come home when I want to.

I have the right to do what I want.

As her son, I can't let this go on.

- Go to Chang Yi's place tomorrow. - Me?

Go there and beg her on your knees.
