Upon returning from a trip with her husband NG MAN TAK (Chung King Fai), cookery teacher LO SIU LAI (Lee Sze Kei, Louise) is shocked to find that her little daughter NG CHOI NI (Chen Fala) has started cohabiting with a homosexually inclined colleague LAU TAT YAN (Hung Tin Ming) while her divorced sister LO SIU MEI (Ng Wing Mei) is seemingly caught up in a love triangle between tenant YAU KAI (Mak Cheung Ching) and her ex-husband. By and by TAK is forced to retire early and stays at home all day with nothing to do. LAI, on the other hand, is lucky enough to have the opportunity to host a culinary show on TV. Everything seems to have happened too fast but this does not leave LAI frustrated and accursed. Instead she tries to get round every problem with even more patience and dedication, which however is not appreciated by TAK. The bickering continues until LAI eventually thinks of a good way to tackle TAK…

Overview

BILL really appears while CHARLIE is waiting for her mother in the car. BILL tries to please LAI but both of them deliberately keep their distance from him. When RYAN is trying to help MAN pick up his bracelet under the seat, CHARLIE passes there and thinks that they are doing something obscene in the car. The producer FLORA introduces her husband Mr. HO to LAI. He proposes to launch a culinary school together and LAI shows great interest in it. Attempting to go after MEI, KAI has applied for one-month leave. TAK is very excited when KAI suggests turning the backyard into a greenhouse. TAK is discontented with LAI when she wants to reconstruct the backyard as the culinary school without inquiring him. Yet he does not reveal to LAI about his plan to make a greenhouse. As to create a chance for the brother, YEE purposely asks KAI to deliver a letter to MEI.
