In the bar SUN meets her former lover CHU. She is not happy. HO wants to sue MAY and KWONG for their improper surgery eight years ago. MAY has to confront challenges in his marriage and career.

MAY is depressed as he is frustrated by his marriage. Though the trial has started, MAY still has the confidence that he can overcome the situation. At last the case is settled outside the court. In a armed robbery, one of the gangsters request a doctor so that his colleague can be cured. YU is instructed to shoulder this task. A woman hostage faints in the bank. TUNG has to show up to give assistance. As the thief has lost too much blood, YU persuades other thieves to surrender in order to save his life. At last, YU`s attempt is successful. MAY and LONG celebrate with CHING for her eighteenth birthday. CHING makes the wish that she can celebrate her next birthday. However there is no suitable marrow to cure her blood cancer. LING packs her luggage and decides to divorce MAY.

CHING accompanies several students to the hospital. They were hurt in a fire. CHING collapses and it is proven that cancer has spread in her body. MOON`s mother tries to bridge MOON and IVY. LAI tells her that MOON is a gay. This does not affect their friendship. KIN is lurked and is hurt seriously. His elder brother visits him but is not welcomed. This reminds YU that his brother was killed as his brother wanted to protect him. He convinces KIN to change his attitude. YU passes the department of pregnancy and sees TUNG there. Their mutual understanding deepens. CHING`s wish can be realized. However the donor changes his mind. LONG begs the doctor to tell her the donor`s information. LING blames MAY that he has terminated the insurance policy. LAI witnesses their quarrel and her misunderstanding of LAI worsens.

Finally LING gets KI`s address. However MAY follows her and she cannot convince him to give his marrow to CHING. MAY and the others go to a bar. YIP thinks that SUN is a prostitute and troubles are made. YU and YIP witness a traffic accident. When the four members were waiting for a tour lorry, a car driven by FUNG knocked them down. LIN`s mother and daughter were hurt seriously. YU tries to save them. YAN, who is a police inspector, is FUNG`s father. He wants to bribe YU and YIP. LAI gives YU a ride but they meet a traffic accident. LAI faints and is sent to hospital. LAI is frustrated as a tumour is found in her brain.

KI is impressed by the card drawn by CHING. He promises to give CHING a helping hand. All are excited. LAI does not want her family and boyfriend, who is imprisoned, to worry. Thus she does not tell them her condition. She plans to quit her job. She changes her mind as she is convinced by CHU and MAY after LAI has saved a girl who had nearly been suffocated by a ball. CHU and MAY meet SUN in the fitness centre. SUN nags at MAY. LING and MARTIN go to MAY’s house to get her belongings. Her rude and inconsiderate behaviour makes MAY know that divorce is unavoidable.

CHING recovers and goes home. YIP has parked his car in the forbidden area. He rushes to stop the policeman but he has no coins. Luckily HA helps him. He is impressed by her generous character. HOI suspects that PIK is not loyal to him and her baby is not his. PIK feels humiliated and commits suicide in the hospital. She also wants to get rid of the baby. YIP rushes to tell HOI that he has misunderstood PIK. At last PIK forgives HOI. MAY at last allows CHU and MOON to move into his house though he is reluctant to accept them. YAN is the PR in the karaoke restaurant. She is arrested by the police. CHU goes to the police station to help her. SUN witnesses the case. CHING is kidnapped and MAY worries. When the police want to arrest the gangsters, there is a gunfight. Two villains are killed and FAI is seriously hurt.
