Minh Tuyet [Laughs] I hopes so. I don’t want to be so evil and manipulative.

Minh Tuyet: [Shudders] I really have no idea. You have to ask the producer that question because he won’t tell anybody.

(Will there be any cat fights between you and Tu Quyen?)
Minh Tuyet: That would be interesting… I’m going to ask the producer to add that in.

(Seem like there are always character getting kill of the show. Who do you think is next?)
Minh Tuyet: The only thing that matter is that I don’t get kill off. [Laughs]

(Have the producer informed you on what you will be doing next season?)
Minh Tuyet: The producer has told me that I’ll be doing a lot of planning. I don’t quite know what that means, so you just have to wait and see. [Winks]

(If Bang Kieu’s wife join the cast would you feel awkward?)
Minh Tuyet: I’ve work with Bang Kieu so many times. I don’t think she would get jealous, since we are only working.

(We’ve heard from Minh Tuyet that you and she will be getting married. Is that true?)
Bang Kieu: Don’t be crazy I’m already married!

(We are talking about the story.)
Bang Kieu:[Laughs] I’ve heard about it, but I’m not quite sure yet.

(Is your wife also going to be in the story?)
Bang Kieu: The producer is talking to her about it.

(Have she tell you which role she would be playing?)
Bang Kieu: [Shudders] She told me that her character will play a big part in Minh Tuyet and I relationship.

(Are you scared that if your wife takes this job, she would watch over you everyday?)
Bang Kieu: That’s why I’m trying to make her not get the job. [Laughs]

(What are your thoughts on the story right now?)
Bang Kieu: I think it’s doing well. I do think it should slow down a bit.

(Aren’t you scares you might be cut off if the producer hears that?)
Bang Kieu: [Laughs] He dare to cut me? I just think that the storyline is moving a bit too fast and the viewers might get confused.

(Many fans have circulated the net that you were the one that hit Bang Tam. What do you think?)
Bang Kieu: Seriously no one knows who it is. I hope I do, but I don’t. Sorry!

(What did you think of the first season?)
Tu Quyen: Horrible! [Laughs] The producer keeps making me cry! No I’m just kidding I love it! However, why does he keep making me break up with my love one?

(Who will you end up with?)
Tu Quyen: Let me see… Huy Vu is in a coma, Andy Quach is threatened by Cat Tien, and Luong Tung Quang… hmmm maybe Luong Tung Quang, but I’m not sure.

(Many fans have complaint that there weren’t enough scenes between you and Luong Tung Quang.)
Tu Quyen: Season one didn’t have a lot of romantic scenes, but the producer have told us that there will be plenty in season two.

(Are you scared?)
Tu Quyen: Yes! What if he thinks I’m a bad kisser? [Laughs]

(In the story you play a police woman right?)
Tu Quyen: Yes a very sophisticated and hard working police woman.

(Would you ever be a police in real life?)
Tu Quyen: I can kick butts with these muscles. [Laughs] No, no I like singing. However, this is an amazing experience because I get to learn new tricks.

(Will there be more police story involve?)
Tu Quyen: Yes! The producer has informed me that I’ll be doing a lot of chasing and fighting for season two.

(How do you feel about that?)
Tu Quyen: Very tiring. [Laughs] But then it would be fun because I’ll be chasing one of my best friends Henry Chuc.

(Tu Quyen told us that you two might end up together. What do you feel?)
Luong Tung Quang: I don’t know about that because you don’t know who my other lover will be.

(You have another lover?)
Luong Tung Quang: Yes! I’m ashamed to say this, but I’ll be cheating on Tu Quyen.

(With whom?)
Luong Tung Quang: My lips are seal.

(Does Tu Quyen know about this?)
Luong Tung Quang [Shush] Both her character and herself doesn’t know about this.

(It seem that your character wasn’t as important in season one.)
Luong Tung Quang: Maybe my character didn’t have to do anything with any storyline. I really do wish the producer would give me more scenes.

(Tu Quyen also told us that you two will have a lot of romantic and intimate scene together.)
Luong Tung Quang: I’ve also heard about that and to be honest I’m quite nervous since Tu Quyen is such a beautiful woman.

(We hope to see you more in season two.)
Luong Tung Quang: Thanks a lot.

(Who is “Lu Bu”?)
Bao Han: You will be amaze!

(Is there any chance of telling us?)
Bao Han: I can’t I’m sorry!

Bao Han: I love that I gets to be a designer in the story because I love to designs clothes in real life.

(Is there any possibilities of you opening a store?)
Bao Han: In the story I will, but in real life I don’t know yet.

(So you’ll quit the job at “TH&KD Design Company”?)
Bao Han: I don’t think I will until later on, but I will sooner or later.

(Will you and Trinh Hoi be cheating on Ky Duyen?)
Bao Han: Not quite because he’s in love with me and I’m in love with “Lu Bu”. So it’s a love square!

(Who would win if you and Ky Duyen fight?)
Bao Han: Of course I will; look at these guns. [Laughs]

(Is your spilt personality a “good” or “evil” person?)
Nhu Loan: I wouldn’t say that she’s “good” or “bad”, but she’ll do what ever the nice Nhu Loan, I, is too afraid to do.

(So she’s aggressive?)
Nhu Loan: Maybe… This is a hard challenge for me because I’m not sure if I can push someone off the stair again. [Laughs]

(Will you be put in jail for killing Vina Uyen Mi?)
Nhu Loan: To be frankly I really have no idea how the producer will resolve this situation, but I really don’t want to be put in jail. [Frown]

(Can you tell us anything about season two?)
Nhu Loan: You know I can’t do that, but I can tell you that Tran Thai Hoa and I will get intimate.

(But doesn’t he have a wife?)
Nhu Loan: [Winks] I’m not the one getting intimate with him Loanne, my spilt personality, will.

(Can you tell us more?)
Nhu Loan: Stay tune!

(Does your character have feelings for Nhu Loan?)

(His marriage doesn’t seem too happy.)
Tran Thai Hoa: They’re not romantically together, but they do love each other.

(In the story you have a modeling company.)
Tran Thai Hoa: Yes I do, but I have no modeling experience what so ever.

(How did you get this role?)
Tran Thai Hoa: The producer cast me for my good looks of course. [Laughs] Actually he cast me for my voice; he said it was dramatic and dynamic; perfect for being a boss.

(What if your husband cheats on you?)
Ngoc Lien: I would kill him. [Laughs]

(So would you kill Tran Thai Hoa in the story?)
Ngoc Lien: I would want too, but the producer has something else in mind.

(Can you tell us?)
Ngoc Lien: It’s a secret.

(You appear at the end of the season so there wasn’t a lot of information about you. Can you give us a brief introducing of your character?)
Ngoc Lien: Basically she’s a hard working business woman; who tries her best to keep her husband company stay on top.

(She seem a bit over protective of her husband; getting Vina Uyen Mi to spy.)
Ngoc Lien: She just loves him that’s all. [Laughs]

(Did you kill Bang Tam?)
Van Quynh: I hope I didn’t, but I don’t know.

(If you didn’t then who do you think did?)
Van Quynh: I don’t want to say anything!

(Will there be any fights and argument between you and Angela Tram Anh?)
Van Quynh: No actually because I’ll only be in 4-5 episodes of this season.

(Are you getting kill off the show?)
Van Quynh: No! [Laughs] I have family business therefore the producer is giving me this season off, but I’ll be back at the end of season two.

(What will happen to your character?)
Van Quynh: She’ll be going oversea to study cooking.

(Do you feel your character is evil?)
Angela Tram Anh: My character is not evil, just a bit manipulative.

(Since Van Quynh will not be in this season, will you?)
Angela Tram Anh: I’ll only be in a few episodes since my storyline sticks in with Van Quynh.

(Are you disappointed?)
Angela Tram Anh: I am, but then I get a vacation! [Laughs]

(Who would you choose between Angela Tram Anh and Van Quynh?)
Duong Trieu Vu: Both of them are beautiful. Can I take both?

(Will your character has more scenes?)
Duong Trieu Vu: Sadly I won’t since Van Quynh will not be here for season two, but I’ll still be in a few episodes.

(Was transforming into ugly easy?)
Huong Giang: It takes about an hour a day to do make-up, clothing, and braces.

(That seems dreadful.)
Huong Giang: It is, but I think it’s worth it because I love doing this.

(Will your character gets a make over?)
Huong Giang: She will, but not next season since I won’t have a lot of scenes.

(How do you feel about your character?)
Cat Tien: I hate myself. [Laughs]

(Why is that?)
Cat Tien: Because she’s so mean, but I took this role because I wanted to try something fresh and new.

(Will she get even more evil?)
Cat Tien: Yes, yes she will. She will be hurting a lot of peoples next season.

(Who are those peoples?)
Cat Tien: I can’t say, but one of those is of course Andy Quach.

(What will you do to him?)
Cat Tien: You know I can’t say.

(What will Cat Tien do to you?)
Andy Quach: What will she do to me?

(Cat Tien told us that she will hurt you badly in season two. Do you know what she will do?)
Andy Quach: The producer didn’t tell me anything, but I hope it won’t hurt too badly. {Laughs]

(Does your character still love Tu Quyen?)
Andy Quach: He will always love her.

(Are there any chance of you two getting back together?)
Andy Quach: Maybe, maybe not. I don’t know. You just have to wait and find out.

We hope you enjoyed the interviews. Remember to tune in next week on the 15th to watch “Modern Beauties” second season premier.

season 001 commentary

2007-08-23T23:47:00.000-05:00

I purposely opened season one of "Modern Beauties" with the four original housewives – Susan Mayer, Bree Van De Kamp, Lynette Scavo, and Gabriella Solis – leaving their home, Wisteria Lane. In this episode you are also introduce with the new housewives – Bao Han, Nhu Loan, Tu Quyen and Minh Tuyet – even though they are no where near being housewives, but extraordinary beauties.

In the next episode “Home” you sees and know where the ‘beauties’ lives – in the old house of one of the housewives, Gabriella Solis. I thought that was most appropriate because there were five of them living together and that was the biggest house out of the four. Then we all realizes that Minh Tuyet wasn’t as sweet or innocent in episode one, but a fake, manipulative person. Van Quynh appears during this episode as Minh Tuyet’s little sister. This episode wasn’t only to show where the housewives live, but shows how reckless and evil Minh Tuyet is to push an old lady, Khanh Ly. Also to shows how distance and silent between the two sisters.

Episode three “War Arising” got more exciting and interesting as there was a murder case that happens in the back yard of Eddie Britt. However, it turns out it wasn’t her when she returns from a night out she wouldn’t tell therefore she was taken to custody and questions by Tu Quyen. When Eddie was being asks outside the office one of the housewives in the neighborhood, Huong Lan, confronts the way the ‘beauties’ dress and act. Ho Le Thu, Eddie’s co-workers, also steps in to support the housewives even to the point that she slaps Huong Lan across the face. This episode left many confused because they have no idea why that dead body was in Eddie’s backyard. And also interested because we all love a fight!

When episode four “Rise of the past” began the ‘beauties’ and housewives still fight, but stopped by Tu Quyen. As the episode progresses we learn about their past and how different they were during their high school years. I did this because it was entertaining to see the ‘beauties’ throws secrets that they have kept for years at each other. Then the episode ends with Van Quynh confronting where Minh Tuyet was at last night. This causes speculation that Minh Tuyet was the killer of the dead body in Eddie’s back yard. However, Van Quynh was only asking about the egged incident about Khanh Ly’s house.

We then meet Bang Kieu, the son of Khanh Ly, in this episode. Khanh Ly seems to dislike Minh Tuyet, but who can blame her since she did push her off the taxi. This episode is named “Asking her out” because Bang Kieu and Minh Tuyet share an intimate love-at-first-sight that he ask her out the next day.

On Bang Kieu and Minh Tuyet’s first official date they runs into a killer, Huy Vu; who we later finds out that he was the past lover of Tu Quyen, but to why he personally targeted this shop. We don’t know! At the same moment we are introduced to Luong Tung Quang, he was supposedly in the coffee shop waiting for Huy Vu to make a move. The two gets into a fight, but because of the mistake of Bang Tam, the owner of the coffee shop, Huy Vu manage to take advantage. This episode “Coffee Shop” was specifically written for excitement and lure in more viewers.

Andy Quach, a police officer under Tu Quyen, confesses his love toward Tu Quyen since he knew that once Tu Quyen enters the coffee shop, she might not make it out alive. Tu Quyen rejected his love since she was his mentor, teacher. I wanted Andy Quach to tell Tu Quyen that he loved her because I wanted to show what happened to Huy Vu to causes him go crazy and hold citizens hostage. At first I wanted to kill Huy Vu off during this episode, but then I wanted more of him in the near future therefore I let four person get shot – Huy Vu by Tu Quyen, Ha Vy also Huy Vu’s wife, Bang Tam, and Andy Quach while trying to save Tu Quyen. “Dead love” indicates to the viewers and Huy Vu that the love shared between Tu Quyen and he was over.

This episode starts out with Andy Quach dieing in the ambulance still confessing his love to Tu Quyen; who stayed by his side. Andy Quach manages to stay alive with minor injures while Bang Tam; who also manage to survive was more major. After Andy Quach wakes we also learn as other characters in the story that he and Tu Quyen were going out. During the funeral of Ha Vy, Tu Quyen finds out that Huy Vu is still alive which also represents the title “Rise from the dead”.

To everyone surprise Huy Vu is still alive, but remain in a coma. We then hear Tu Quyen saying she still loves Huy Vu and Andy Quach heard. This was done purposely because I wanted to show a sign that the couple wouldn’t stay with each other long since Tu Quyen only went out with Andy Quach because she was scare that if she rejected him like she did to Huy Vu. Andy Quach would go crazy! Bang Kieu and Minh Tuyet accept the request from Bang Tam to take care of the coffee shop until she is all well. We then know where Bao Han works and how her co-workers are not to kind to her. Nhu Loan then told off a model, Cat Ly, fighting for a job that uses their body. Because of all their promises of being better this episode was named “Making promises”.

This episode shows the other side of the ‘beauties’ being slob and being 'normal'. Tu Quyen actually admits that she still loves Huy Vu, but she didn’t want to hurt Andy Quach’s feelings. Cat Tien was introduces into this episode as another police newbie under Tu Quyen. At first Cat Tien was excited and happy to be under Tu Quyen, but soon turns when she realizes she like Andy Quach. Once Tu Quyen sees Andy Quach and Cat Tien sitting under a tree talking and laughing, Tu Quyen takes it the wrong way and it leads to a “Misleading evidence”.

“Ancient love” is the name of this episode because we are introduce to “Lu Bu”, an online chatter that Bao Han nevers know. I know most of you are confuse to why I used Lu Bu and Diao Chan as the screen name of the two. Diao Chan is known as one of the four ancient beauties in China and Lu Bu was one of her intimate lover. Tu Quyen and Andy Quach fights over the incident between Cat Tien and Andy Quach leaving him unfocused during driving which leads to a car accident.

Tu Quyen hurriedly gets to the hospital to check on Andy Quach because she now realizes she did love Andy Quach. Once Tu Quyen and the other ‘beauties’ gets to the hospital, Tu Quyen sees Cat Tien there taking care of Andy Quach. Tu Quyen gets angry and the two officially breaks up. We only hear that the person Andy Quach collides with is Vy Nguyen which will be more features in the near future. Tu Quyen was “Crying in the corner” because she finally realizes after she sees Cat Tien being by Andy Quach’s side that she do love Andy. She fakes to be drunk around the other ‘beauties’ because she didn’t want them to be worry over her.

The day of the re-opening of the coffee shop there were no customers at all until Tu Quyen shows up covered in mud. Because of Tu Quyen the shops got filled up by nosy customers who wonder why Tu Quyen was in mud. Dalena, a random customer, asks Minh Tuyet why Tu Quyen was in mud and Minh Tuyet manages to explain. Tu Quyen wanders off and meets Luong Tung Quang; who made her smile. He asks her out immediately which made Tu Quyen happy. This is why I named this episode “A good day after all”.

This episode was inspired by forth of July and the “Fireworks”. Luong Tung Quang and Tu Quyen go on their first date. The date was absolutely romantic until Tu Quyen chase after a robber. However, Luong Tung Quang didn’t mind and seem impressed by it. This will be explains in season two of the story. We then meet Henry Chuc; who searches for his wife, Dalena, the custumer during the previous episode.

Bao Han starts “Day dreaming” at the beginning about her lover online. This episode shows how evil Bao Han’s co-workers are to her. Calvin Hiep, ones of the company designers, stole her designs when she was sleeping after she spends all that time during the forth of July to draw the designs. Ky Duyen, her boss, does not believes her because Calvin Hiep have the designs causing Bao Han to be embarrass and angry. After bumping into Trinh Hoi, Ky Duyen’s husband and also Bao Han’s other boss, Bao Han starts to like Trinh Hoi, but she knew nothing was going to happen since he was already married. This episode also shows us that Van Quynh is a great cook when she makes fried eggs.

The “Surprise discovery” about this episode is that Minh Tuyet and Tu Quyen finds out that Dalena is the dead person in the yard of Eddie Britt. The confusing thing is that Dalena was written down as ‘dead’, but she was talking to them the week before. Van Quynh goes to her first day of cooking class with two of her best friends, Huynh Gia Tuan and Angela Tram Anh. To her dismay the teacher of the class is Huong Lan; who assign her an assignment on the first day.

This was one of my favorite episodes through out the whole season because I took the most time writing every details and movement of the ‘ghost’ supposedly the ‘dead’ Dalena. When I was writing this I got chills because I was imagining the incident… During this episode Tu Quyen wakes up in the middle of the night to find her self being haunted at first by Minh Tuyet who plays a trick on her, but turns out to be a real ‘ghost’ in the bathroom who left her with “A clue”. The clue left many readers stunned and confused, but it will be answer in season two. Bao Han and Trinh Hoi goes to breakfast at the coffee shop and Bang Kieu mistakenly saw them kissing, but they were not. Yes! Bang Kieu will have a large part in the Trinh Hoi - Bao Han - Ky Duyen love triangle later on in the near future.

Bao Han goes to work with a surprise to see Trinh Hoi had stand up to her and is determine to find out the truth about the stolen designs. Both Calvin Hiep and Bao Han decided to sit down and draw one of the designs. Nhu Loan goes to a job interview at the Gucci Company; a modeling company. Tu Quyen once again tells Andy Quach that “It’s over” between the two.

Calvin Hiep didn’t know how to draw the designs that he was assigned. However, Ky Duyen switches up the designs therefore both Calvin Hiep and Bao Han were equally qualify as being the owner. Tuong Khue, another designer, felt sorry for Bao Han and steps forward to say what he saw with Ky Duyen switching designs. Calvin Hiep of course gets fire, but you should realizes that he’s not mark as a guest star but a supporting characters therefore I guarantee that this isn’t the last of him. Tran Thai Hoa, the owner of Gucci Company, interviews Nhu Loan and loves her presence and confident therefore hired her on the first day. The title of the title is “Drunken mistake” because at the end Andy Quach goes out to a bar with Cat Tien to uses wine/beer as a pain reliever. Because of his drunkenness he supposedly slept with Cat Tien.

Andy Quach wakes up to find himself naked in Cat Tien’s bed. We then hear the side of Cat Tien, she only tricks Andy Quach about the two sleeping together to only get him to stay by her side and not any one else. As Bao Han, Nhu Loan and Tu Quyen talks about their daily life they sees Minh Tuyet hugging a mysterious man; who she says is her long time friend. During a crowded moment Tu Quyen sees Henry Chuc and Dalena arguing in the street, but couldn’t find them once she gets out to the street. At the police station we are inform that Tuan Ngoc, the police chief, that Cat Tien and Tu Quyen are now partners. Tu Quyen of course got furious because she thinks Cat Tien is still very fresh and new. This is “Just the beginning” of their corals and arguments. In season two the two will gets into more fights and misunderstanding.

Van Quynh finishes her fried eggs that Huong Lan has assigned to her. However, she switches up the menu to her way because she felt that she was right. During the way to school Van Quynh accidentally almost hit Duong Trieu Vu twice with her car. I made Agela Tram Anh, Huynh Gia Tuan, and Huong Giang to be so annoying in the car is because I feel that this is how teenagers drives these day. Always talking on the phone, eating or is being irritated by close friends which can lead to accidents. Bao Han and “Lu Bu” continue to chat and we find out that he works in the same office as Tu Quyen. Yes! He has appeared in the story. This is the beginning of the on going deadly argument between Minh Tuyet and Bang Tam where Minh Tuyet asks Bang Tam if she can sell her the coffee shop, but Bang Tam refuses. Van Quynh “Fail task” was when Huong Lan thought she did a horrible job at following directions. Angela Tram Anh tricks Van Quynh to teach her the specialty ingredients to making fried eggs so she could teach Duong Trieu Vu; who she knew that Van Quynh likes.

On Nhu Loan’s first day at work she was presented with a horrible dressing room and worst photo shoot possible; she was to lie in mud. After lying in mud Nhu Loan had to take a shower with only cold water and the bathroom she was in even had roaches, but because to the roaches she accidentally bumps into Tran Thai Hoa’s hand. Tu Quyen and Cat Tien continue to argue while Bang Tam continues to refuses Minh Tuyet’s offer. At the end of this episode I thought it was really cute how Van Quynh knew how to comfort and makes the ‘beauties’ happy after “A hard day at work”.

After seeing the photos token of Nhu Loan in the mud Tran Thai Hoa gets furious at how unprofessional it was. He gets fascinated by Nhu Loan and gets her to be the lead model replacing the other model which gets Ngoc Lien, Tran Thai Hoa’s wife, angry. I added the part of the nosy husband and wife, Quang Minh and Hong Dao, because I wanted to show how Tu Quyen could be a strong police women, but at the same time could also be sensitive and sweet. Cat Tien asks in this episode about the door that has never opens – “Lu Bu” room. Minh Tuyet comes to visit Tu Quyen just to uses her, she wanted the information about Bang Tam therefore knocking hot water on Tu Quyen’s file. During this incident Cat Tien films the whole thing. Minh Tuyet is “Threatening” Bang Tam now after she couldn’t get her to sell the shop. Minh Tuyet says that if Bang Tam doesn’t sell her the shop, she would hurt her little brother who has cancer. I know that you readers think that is too far of Minh Tuyet, but in season two you will find out why she had to do it.

Vina Uyen Mi, Gucci Company’s highest receptionist, takes some photos of Tran Thai Hoa and Nhu Loan hugging, but Nhu Loan only hugs Tran Thai Hoa because of her getting to be the lead model in the mud photo shoot. Trinh Hoi and Bao Han go on another ‘friend date’ and Ky Duyen gets jealous; she prints out all the pages between Bao Han and “Lu Bu”. “Minh Tuyet’s hardship” is when Khanh Ly come to the coffee shop and complain about this and that to Minh Tuyet even complaining about the water being to hot or cold. Cat Tien shows Tu Quyen her cell phone and the so called ‘evidence’, but Tu Quyen turns it around and makes Cat Tien looks stupid once again.

Bao Han and “Lu Bu” chats and he promise her that they would meet the next day at noon and she gets very happy. While she was chatting Ky Duyen takes photos of Bao Han in her office. I wanted to add this because I know that Ky Duyen is a very talented photographer. Minh Tuyet gets angry at Kieu Linh, lawyer, when she finds out that Bang Tam have not signed the papers. Bang Kieu coincidently finds Kieu Linh’s business card and at that time Tu Quyen calls when she finds out that Minh Tuyet have printed and searched for Bang Tam. Tu Quyen calls Kieu Linh and meets with him; she gets all the information about why Minh Tuyet needed a lawyer and all the information about Bang Tam. Tran Thai Hoa announces Nhu Loan promotion to being the top model during the week of Gucci yearly fashion show. “Getting blackmail” by Vina Uyen Mi because of her promotion Nhu Loan gets angry.

It all comes to the end. The season finale of “Modern Beauties” began with Nhu Loan pushing Vina Uyen Mi down the staircase. Not actually Nhu Loan, but her spilt personality. This will play a big part in her storyline in season two. Ky Duyen confronts Bao Han about the chatting and her husband. To her surprise Bao Han gets angry and throws the photos and pictures in her face. Tran Thai Hoa takes his friend, “Lu Bu”, to the mall where he will meet Bao Han. However, Bao Han shows ups very late almost missing the chance of meeting him. Once Bao Han sees who he is she was very, very surprise. You too will be very surprise at who it is. For the last time Minh Tuyet asks Bang Tam, but she refuses therefore Minh Tuyet gets angry and gets Bang Tam so angry that she slapped Minh Tueyt across the face. Angela Tram Anh uses her time with Druong Trieu Vu to show Van Quynh that he is hers; she kisses him while she sees. In anger Van Quynh drives crazily through the street. The season finale ends with Bang Tam getting hit by a car and leaving everyone confused at to who might the person behind the wheel be. Maybe Minh Tuyet because of her evil self, or Van Quynh and her reckless driving, or maybe even Bang Kieu who got distracted by the pouring rain.

Overall, I really liked how the season ended with so many mysteries still waiting to be resolves. I know I did this just to make you readers stay with me, but you must understand that if the finale is boring or not as interested then you would not return to read season two. So forgive me for my greedy-ness. I assure you season two will be less hectic and chaotic; maybe more chaotic than but not as rushed into conclusion as this season. Also understand that school will start in a few days for me so the releasing dates of the episodes will be only on a day a week; Sunday. However, when I’m on break you might see an extra episode here or there. Some readers have asked me which storyline I liked best and for me as the writer love them all. However, my favorites have to be the mystery behind Minh Tuyet’s evil deeds and Tu Quyen trying to solve the mystery behind the death of Dalena and Henry Chuc. As for Nhu Loan’s spilt personalities I haven’t thought of anything special for her storyline, but it will develop more during season two. Bao Han’s love storyline will get more complicated and interesting. I assure you! Last but not least I thanks all of you fans that have stuck with me throughout this whole season and hopefully you will return for season two. Also in the next few days I’ll be posting up the cast interview so more hints on next season. Thank you and enjoy!

episode 026 – a push, a pull, a slap, a hit [s. 1 finale]

2007-08-22T10:01:00.000-05:00

Guest Star (s):
Vina Uyen Mi – Receptionist
Bang Tam – Coffee Shop Owner

“Let go of me!” Nhu Loan screams.

“If you don’t promise me some money I’ll give these photos to Mrs. Ngoc Lien and your career as a model is over.” Vina Uyen Mi holds up the phone.

Nhu Loan pushes Vina Uyen Mi’s hand off, “Why should I care if these photos get into her hands or not.”

“She can destroy your career in 30 minute.”

“Who is she to do that?”

“Maybe she’s the wife of your boss and also the queen of gossip.”

Nhu Loan is shock, “She’s Tran Thai Hoa’s wife?”

“Are you disappointed that you can’t have him for your own?”

Tears suddenly full up into Nhu Loan’s eyes and it starts to burn her, “He’s married…?”

“I knew you like him. I’ll be waiting for that money.” Vina Uyen Mi walks toward the door. “You damn slut!” Vina Uyen Mi whisper under her voice.

A pair of hand from behind grabs Vina Uyen Mi from the shoulder and pulls her back. The pair of hand let go of her shoulder and pushes firmly down the stair. Vina Uyen Mi screams as she rolls down the staircases. Vina Uyen Mi finally stops at the bottom of the stair case with blood spilling everywhere onto the floor.

Nhu Loan’s hand began to shake crazily as she stare down at the dead Vina Uyen Mi, “What have I done?” Nhu Loan hurriedly run down the stair and takes the phone from Vina Uyen Mi carefully enough to not leave any finger prints.

After she deleted the photos from the phone she heads toward the bathroom. Nhu Loan continuously splash water onto her face screaming, “What have you done Nhu Loan? You killed someone! OMG! This isn’t real. It’s only a dream!” She keeps on repeating the words.

“That bitch deserved to die.” A voice calls out.

“Who was that? How did you know?” Nhu Loan looks around the empty bathroom.

“You know that bitch deserve to die!” The voice laughs.

“I killed her. I really didn’t mean too.”

“You didn’t kill her. I did! I’ll do everything that you’re too afraid to do.”

Nhu Loan sobs and screams, “Who the hell are you? How did you…?” Nhu Loan stops and looks at the mirror, “No, no…!” She slowly wipes away the water that covers the mirror. She stares at herself and sees her mouth moving in the mirror, “Hi Nhu Loan!”

[TH & KD Design Company]

Bao Han gets her stuff ready to meet “Lu Bu” at the mall, “Finally the days have come. I can meet my knight and shining armor.” Bao Han heads toward the door.

“Stop…!’ Ky Duyen screams.

Bao Han turns back, “Yes Mrs. Duyen?”

“Where are you going…?”

“It’s lunch hour….”

Ky Duyen throws down a stack of photos. Bao Han picks them up and her eyes widen, “You’ve been spying on me?”

“Not spying, but seeing if the designers I hire for my company are working or not.”

“Mrs. Duyen I’m so very sorry, but I have to go now.” Bao Han looks at the clock past noon.

Ky Duyen laughs, “You’re about to get fire and you’re asking me to leave?”

“I really have to go.”

“Are you that hungry…? Or are you going to go see someone?”

“You read my messages too?” Bao Han is stuns.

Ky Duyen smile, “So it’s true.”

“That’s my own business. You don’t have the rights to do that.” Bao Han rips the pictures.

“I have thousands more. Keep going… Rips them…”

Bao Han have begun to cry, “I’m going to leave now.”

“Go…!” Ky Duyen points at the front gate “Don’t come back because you are fire and don’t ever try to even talk or ‘meet’ with my husband again.”

Bao Han turns around, “What…? You think I’m going out to meet with your husband?”

“Then who else…?”

“You are unbelievable. Your husband is on a business trip to Vancouver and you don’t even know. How are you to even suppose to be his wife?” The clock ticks loudly in Bao Han's ear.

Ky Duyen is embarrass, “Well you chatting during works is unacceptable.”

“Have you realized that during all those time I was chatting were during lunch hour?” Bao Han throws the rip up photos at Ky Duyen. Bao Han looks at her clock and run toward the door.

“You…! How dare you talk to your boss like that?” Ky Duyen stomps back to her room and slam the door.

[Highway]

“Out of signal…? You have to be kidding me.” Tu Quyen holds her cell phone up to the sky. “If I don’t get to Minh Tuyet in time Bang Tam might be in big troubles.”

Tu Quyen paces back and forth still trying to find a signal, “Finally!” Tu Quyen dials the numbers.

“Bang Kieu…?”

“Did you find out anything from the lawyer?”

“Yes. Where is she right now?”

“She went to go see Bang Tam.”

“What…? Can you come pick me up?”

“What’s wrong…?”

“I’ll tell you on the way, but for right now you need to come pick me up!”

“Where are you?”

“I don’t know.” Tu Quyen looks around.

“What does the place look like?”

“I know I’m on a highway, but I don’t know which one.”

“Any one you can ask?”

“There’s no one here…” Tu Quyen sees a car coming her way, “I see someone.”

Tu Quyen sticks out her thumb and the van stop. The mirror of the van rolls down and inside the car sits Tran Thai Hoa.

“Do you need a ride?” Tran Thai Hoa asks.

“No thanks. I just need to ask you which highway this is.”

“Highway 120.”

“Thank you!” Tu Quyen smile.

Tran Thai Hoa rises back up the mirror and drives off leaving Tu Quyen standing with her phone to her ears.

Inside the car “Lu Bu” get himself into the passenger seat from the back, “All set!”

“What were you doing back there dude?”

“Fixing up those roses...”

“I didn’t know you have a girlfriend?”

“Just drive. I’m late!”

[Wisteria Mall]

“Lu Bu” and Tran Thai Hoa stands at the huge and beautiful water fountain in the middle of the mall with “Lu Bu” holding a big bouquet of roses.

“Dude we look stupid.” Tran Thai Hoa tries to hide his face under his hand.

“No every woman wishes their man would do this.”

Tran Thai Hoa rolls his eyes, “How long do we have to stand here? Everyone is staring at us.”

“Just a bit longer…” “Lu Bu” looks at his clock.

[Highway]

“You have to be kidding me!” Bao Han stand with her back to the broke down taxi. “How much longer…?”

“It will be done soon.” The taxi driver fixes the flat wheels.

Bao Han looks at her clock and sees that she is one hour late, “How far is the mall from here?”

“About ten minute.”

“Ten minute by car. If I run it will be about twenty, but I’m in high heels.” Bao Han frowns. “For my ‘Lu Bu’ I’ll have to do this.”

Bao Han pay the taxi driver and starts running toward the mall. “Ouch, ouch, ouch…”

A car honk from behind. Bao Han turns around to see Bang Kieu and Tu Quyen, “Oh thanks god!”

“I didn’t know you exercise this way.” Tu Quyen fixes the air for to Bao Han who lies in the back seat.

“Just… take me… to the mall.” Bao Han breathe heavily.

Bang Kieu shakes his head, “You woman are crazy! Sacrifices your self just to get to the mall.”

“Just… hurry up and… drive.”

“Is there a sale today?” Tu Quyen says excitedly.

Bang Kieu elbow Tu Quyen, “Minh Tuyet…?”

[Wisteria Mall]

“Thank… you!” Bao Han gets herself out of the car slowly.

“If you see anything cute get two for me.” Tu Quyen blows a kiss to Bao Han.

Bao Han looks at her clock again, “I’m so late!” She heads toward the water fountain.

[Bang Kieu’s Car]

“What does she want with Bang Tam?”

“The lawyer told me that she wants Bang Tam to sell her the coffee shop, but Bang Tam refuses.” Tu Quyen takes out the files.

Bang Kieu scratches his chin, “I know she loves the coffee shop, but why a lawyer?”

“Minh Tuyet is not asking nicely though, she forcing Bang Tam to sign or…”

“Or what…?”

“I don’t know. That’s why I’m scare she might do something that she’ll regret late on.”

[Wisteria Mall]

“It has been over an hour, you got stood up dude that never happens.” Tran Thai Hoa laughs.

“You’re right.” “Lu Bu” slams the bouquet of flower into Tran Thai Hoa’s hand and walks away.

“What am I suppose to do with this?” Tran Thai Hoa holds the bouquet, “Damn that…”

“Lu Bu… I finally get to meet you.” Bao Han hugs Tran Thai Hoa.

Tran Thai Hoa face turns bright red, “What are you doing?” He pushes Bao Han away.

“The red roses, the fountain, I’m 'Diao Chan'.” Bao Han blinks rapidly at Tran Thai Hoa.

“I think you’ve mistaken me for him.” Tran Thai Hoa points at “Lu Bu” walking away slowly.

“Then why do you have the bouquet of flower?” Bao Han points.

“He thought you were not coming.”

Bao Han grab the bouquet of flower out of Tran Thai Hoa’s hand, “I knew you were not handsome enough to be my ‘Lu Bu’.”

Bao Han runs toward “Lu Bu” and grab him by the shoulder turning him around, “Lu…” The bouquet of roses falls to the ground breaking to single roses, “Bu…?”

Thunder strikes loudly outside. Rains pour down crazily with the sky turning dark gray.

[Wisteria Hospital, Bang Tam’s Room]

“I’m not kidding around with you.” Minh Tuyet throws the papers onto Bang Tam’s lap.

Bang Tam wipes the tear, “Minh Tuyet pleases! I beg you to let me go.”

“Just sign the damn paper.”

“But this is the only way I can make a living.” Bang Tam begs.

Minh Tuyet grin, “I guess you don’t love your sick little brother.”

Bang Tam gets out of her bed and slap Minh Tuyet across the face, “Why are you doing this?”

Minh Tuyet laughs hysterically, “You watch yourself.” Minh Tuyet storms out of Bang Tam’s room.

Bang Tam falls to the floor and sob, “I’m sorry.” Bang Tam looks at the photo of her little brother and the files of paper Minh Tuyet thrown at her.

[Wisteria High School]

Van Quynh looks outside, “Angela can’t walk home in this weather.” Van Quynh heads back in.

[Cooking Class]

Angela Tram Anh laughs, “You are such a quick learner.”

“Because I have a great teacher...” Duong Trieu Vu smile.

“Don’t put such a huge hat on my head. It will make me blush.”

Duong Trieu Vu gets some flour and rubs it on Angela Tram Anh’s cheeks, “This will help the blushing.”

“How dare you!” Angela Tram Anh rubs the flour back on Duong Trieu Vu’s cheek.

The two starts throwing flour at each other when the side of Angela Tram Anh’s eyes she sees Van Quynh approaching. She takes a deep breath and kiss Duong Trieu Vu on the lip.

Van Quynh drops the key which startles the two. Duong Trieu Vu pushes Angela Tram Anh off. Van Quynh picks up the keys and run off. Tears come pouring out of her eye.

Van Quynh’s tears and the rain pouring down blended into one. Van Quynh gets into her car and drives hurriedly in the rain. She tries to drive steadily, but she couldn’t because of the tears in her eyes. Van Quynh passes her first red light, then another, and another.

[Outside Wisteria Hospital]

“Minh Tuyet where are you?” Bang Tam runs out into the rain, “Where are you? I need to tell you something.” Bang Tam runs into the street, “I finally thought it over and…” She wipes the rain off her face, “And I’ve already sign the…”

A car hit straight into Bang Tam and her body fling onto the front mirror of the car cracking the mirror. Blood drip down onto the mirror, but is wash away by the rain.

The pair of hand behind the wheel squeezes tightly onto the wheel.

Diao Chan: Ok!

Bao Han spins around in her chair smiling widely with her hand over her head, “I’m finally going to meet my ‘Lu Bu’.”

Inside Ky Duyen’s Office Ky Duyen zoom the camera toward the computer and Bao Han’s smiling face. Snap, snap the camera clicks. Ky Duyen puts down the camera, “Who says being a photographer was a waste Trinh Hoi?”

[Police Station, Tu Quyen’s Office]

After turning on her computer, Tu Quyen immediately went to her history pages to see what Minh Tuyet printed out. Tu Quyen looks closely at all the things she searched for and printed out. “Bang Tam…? I didn’t search for her. Why would Minh Tuyet need information on Bang Tam?” Tu Quyen press on Bang Tam’s name and a page of Bang Tam’s information pop up. “She has never been in jail or even got involve with the police. She seems too good to be true, but why did Minh Tuyet search for her? Bang Kieu…?” Tu Quyen picks up her cell phone.

[Coffee Shop]

“How…?” Minh Tuyet slams the files onto the table aggressively.

“What am I to do?” Kieu Linh rolls his eyes.

Minh Tuyet points at his face, “You’re supposed to be a lawyer, my lawyer and…”

“And what…? You want me to threaten her to sign the paper?”

“Exactly…!” Minh Tuyet screams.

Kieu Linh picks up his suite case and accidentally one of his business card fell out of his suitcase, “You’re crazy! Get another lawyer.”

“If you walk out of that room don’t expect to receive any money!” Minh Tuyet screams.

Kieu Linh shakes his head and storm out of the coffee shop bumping into Bang Kieu, “Crazy woman!”

Bang Kieu walks into the coffee shop confused, “What happened…?”

“My law… I mean that customer was unbelievable, he…” Bang Kieu interrupts, “You don’t need to explain. I believe you!”

“Here let me take those bags to the back.” Minh Tuyet takes the bags from Bang Kieu and heads toward the back.

Bang Kieu smile sweetly at Minh Tuyet and sit down on the chair, “What’s this?” Bang Kieu picks up Kieu Linh’s Business card from under his butt. “Wasn’t this the guy…? Lawyer…?”

Suddenly his cell phone rings.

“Hello?” Bang Kieu answer.

“Bang Kieu…? This is Tu Quyen.”

“Can’t reach Minh Tuyet...? She’s…”

“No! I need to talk to you.”

“That’s odd since we’ve met you have never call me.”

“I’m scare of Minh Tuyet being jealous.”

“So what do you need to talk to me about?”

“Can you tell me why would Minh Tuyet need information about Bang Tam for?”

“Bang Tam…? Why would she need information for?”

“That’s why I’m calling to ask you. If you don’t know I’ll find someone else. Bye.”

“Wait!”

“What it is?”

“Today I saw her talking to a lawyer.”

“Lawyer…?”

“I don’t know what they were talking about, but she seems pretty angry.”

“Only if we can get in touch with him…”

“I have his business card.”

“You are awesome!”

“The phone number is (682) 472-5936.”

“Thanks I’ll inform you on more information when I find out.”

Bang Kieu hang up the phone and looks at the card, “Bang Tam…? Lawyer…? Information…? Why…?”

“What are you looking at?” Minh Tuyet walks back into the room.

“Nothing…!” Bang Kieu stuff the card into the pocket.

[Police Station, Tu Quyen’s Office]

“Lawyer…? What does she want with a lawyer?” Tu Quyen presses the number. The phone rings once, twice, for a third time and finally a man picks up.

“Hello?” Kieu Linh answer.

“Is this a lawyer?”

“Yes. I’m Kieu Linh! What do you need?”

“I need a lawyer. That’s the reason I called you.”

“Do you want to sue or a lawyer to defend?”

“As of the moment I have lots of questions. Can we meet…?”

“I’m driving back to my office. You can always come in.”

“I’m coming, but I don’t quite know the way. Can you come pick me up at the Wisteria Police station?”

“Sure!”

[Outside Police Station]

Tu Quyen stand on the side walk waiting impatiently, “What’s taking him so long?”

At the corner of the street an SUV turns into the corner and it drives toward Tu Quyen. The mirror rolls down and in the car sit a guy with bushy facial hair, “Are you?”

“What do you want?” Tu Quyen reaches into her pocket ready to show him her badge.

“I’m Kieu Linh. The lawyer...!”

“What…?” Tu Quyen is shock.

“Who did you think I was?” Kieu Linh takes off his shade.

Tu Quyen gets into the car. “I didn’t know lawyer now a day’s look like robbers.” Tu Quyen whispers under her voice.

“Now what do you need me for?”

“I want you to ask you some question.”

“Go ahead!”

“I need you to tell me why one of your customer, Minh Tuyet, hired you for.”

The car stop; both Kieu Linh and Tu Quyen swing forward, “I don’t think that’s necessary.”

“It is necessary now?” Tu Quyen holds out her police badge.

“You’re scaring me with your driver license?” Kieu Linh unlocks the car.

“What?” Tu Quyen looks at her badge, “Oops wrong one!” Tu Quyen pulls out her other wallet with her police badge on it.

Kieu Linh raises his hand up, ‘I want no trouble!”

“Then tell me why Minh Tuyet hired you.”

“She wanted me to bring some document for some girl at the hospital to sign.”

“Bang Tam…?”

“Yes! But the girl refused to sign so Minh Tuyet fire me.”

“What papers?”

“Those in my suitcase...” Kieu Linh points at his suitcase.

Tu Quyen pulls it up and takes out the documents, “These?”

“Yes!”

Tu Quyen takes the document, throws the suitcase at Kieu Linh and ran out the door. Tu Quyen continues running away from the car. After a few minute Tu Quyen turns around and notices the car driving away.

“What kind of documents are these?” Tu Quyen observes. “This is ridicules. How could Minh Tuyet do this…?” Tu Quyen looks around at the deserted highway and cries, “Now how am I suppose to go home?”

[Gucci Company, Tran Thai Hoa’s Office]

“I want you to be walk as the top model next week at the Gucci yearly fashion show.” Tran Thai Hoa announces.

Nhu Loan’s jaw drops, “Are you serious…?”

“I’m the boss. I don’t tell lies.” Tran Thai Hoa winks.

“Oh my god…!” Nhu Loan jumps up and down and hugs Tran Thai Hoa. Once again Tran Thai Hoa face turns bright red.

Nhu Loan shyly let go of Tran Thai Hoa, “I’m sorry again!”

“You have a tendency to choke people when you’re happy.”

Nhu Loan chuckles, “Thank you…!” Nhu Loan excuses herself and walk out of the office still smiling. Nhu Loan walks toward the back of the building to her room. When she walks near the staircases a pair of hand reaches out and pulls her in.

“OMG Kidnapper…!” Nhu Loan slaps and kicks.

Vina Uyen Mi smacks Nhu Loan on the forehead, “Idiot…! If I wanted to kidnap you, I would not do it in the company.”

“Why did you have to sneak up on me like that?” Nhu Loan fixes her hair.

“I need to talk to you secretly.” Vina Uyen Mi smile devilishly.

Nhu Loan steps back, “What do you want?”

Vina Uyen Mi pulls Nhu Loan toward her, “I heard you got a promotion.”

“What promotion?” Nhu Loan is confused.

“Don’t lie to me. I heard you’ll be the top number one model next week at the fashion show.”

“Well if you say that’s a promotion then yes.”

Vina Uyen Mi takes out her cell phone, “Perfect!”

“What are you doing with your cell phone?”

Vina Uyen Mi gives Nhu Loan the phone, “Take a look at these photos.”

Nhu Loan takes the cell phone and sees the photos of her hugging Tran Thai Hoa, “So…? What’s wrong with these photos?”

“You’re hugging the boss…”

“And…? Is that a problem? He was giving me a congratulating hugs.” Nhu Loan gives Vina Uyen Mi back her cell phone.

“Do you think anyone would believe you? Especially right after you got the promotion for basically doing nothing. ”

“I did do that photo shoot.”

“One photo shoots. No one will believe you.”

Nhu Loan eyes turn red, “Why are you doing this?”

Vina Uyen Mi smile, “Honey, you should know this is a dog eat dog industry and it’s all about the money.”

“You want to blackmail me?”

“If that’s what you call it then yes.” Vina Uyen Mi shrugs.

Nhu Loan heads toward the door, “I’m not giving you any money!”

Vina Uyen Mi grabs Nhu Loan arms.

“Seem like Mr. Tran Thai Hoa really likes her.” Vina Uyen Mi picks up the photos.

Tran Thai Hoa touches his chin, “What do you think of those photos?”

Nhu Loan flips through the photos slowly examining them, “I think they could’ve been better.”

“Better…? These photos are amazing! Where have you been all these years?” Tran Thai Hoa beams.

“What?” Nhu Loan scratches her head.

“Where is your energy, rawness, and confident that I saw the day I hired you to be in this company? In the world of fashion, confident is a must.” Tran Thai Hoa walks over and lifts Nhu Loan up from her chair.

Nhu Loan shyly smiles, “I was scare…”

“Shss…” Tran Thai Hoa puts his finger on Nhu Loan’s lips. “Show me that confident and passion once again.”

Nhu Loan takes a deep breath, “I think… No I know these photos are gorgeous, fabulous, and sexy!”

“Now we’re talking.” Tran Thai Hoa raises his hand to the ceiling.

In excitement Nhu Loan gives Tran Thai Hoa a big hug which caught Tran Thai Hoa by surprise and his face turn bright red.

[TH & KD Designs Company]

Bao Han sits at her desk like everyday chatting to “Lu Bu” when Trinh Hoi scares her from behind.

“What are you doing?”

Bao Han tries quickly to close down the chat pages, “Nothing… Just working…!”

“Really…?”

“Well I was working and ch…” Bao Han explains.

Trinh Hoi burst out laughing, “It’s lunch hour. You don’t have to work.”

Bao Han looks over to the clock and laugh, “I need to get a raise. I even work during lunch hour.”

“Since you are so devoted to the company this boss can treat you to lunch right?”

“I expect a 5 star restaurant.” Bao Han smirk.

“We’ll have to wait and see.” Trinh Hoi helps Bao Han up from her chair and they both walk out the door.

The chat page maximize back onto the page. “You’ve been working hard huh?” Ky Duyen prints out the pages.

[Mystic Garden Restaurant]

Trinh Hoi helps Bao Han sit down on one of the chair near the lily pond, “Is this place great enough for you?”

“I was kidding about the high class restaurant. You didn’t have too.”

“The steak here is to die for.” Trinh Hoi raises his eyebrow.

Bao Han jaws drop, “Its lunch!”

“We can’t eat steak for lunch?”

“No. Just a bit unusual since I eat to-go boxes everyday.” Bao Han says shyly.

Trinh Hoi smile, “Changes are always good.”

The owner of the restaurant, My Linh, walks over to the table, “What would you two like for today?”

“We want two special steak plates.” Trinh Hoi orders.

“Special steak…?”

“Is there a problem?”

“Well we only serve that during dinner hours.” My Linh says disappointingly.

Trinh Hoi slips My Linh a check, “Maybe this could get me some special steak.”

My Linh looks at the check and her eyes widen, “The steak will be done in about 15 minute.”

Bao Han smile uneasily at Trinh Hoi.

[Coffee Shop]

“… Please!” Minh Tuyet hangs up the phone on Bang Tam; who beg for Minh Tuyet to not hurt her brother.

“Who was that?” Bang Kieu asks.

Minh Tuyet turns off the phone, “Commercial!”

“Have you been visiting Bang Tam in the hospital?”

“Yes everyday! You don’t need to go since the shop is very busy.” Minh Tuyet says quickly.

Bang Kieu hugs Minh Tuyet waist, “It seem like you don’t me to go visit her. Are you jealous?”

“No I’m not jealous. I just think that the shop…” Bang Kieu stop Minh Tuyet from talking by kissing her. The two share a passionate kiss when the door of the shop opens.

Khanh Ly walks into the shop and looks around, “So this is where my son spend his times.”

“Mom what are you doing here?” Bang Kieu walks over to greet Khanh ly.

“I just want to know where my son works.” Khanh Ly sits down on one of the chair.

“Well this is where.” Bang Kieu puts his hand up to the sky.

Khanh Ly spits onto the ground, “It looks pretty nice, but where are all the costumers?”

Minh Tuyet smiles forcefully, “The shop just open so there are no costumers yet.”

“Back in the day when my father, your grandfather Bang Kieu, open his shop customers have already line up to get in.” Khanh Ly looks at Minh Tuyet with evil eyes.

“Don’t show off too much.” Minh Tuyet whispers under her breath.

Khanh Ly slam onto the table, “You are such a bad son. I’ve been here for over 5 minute and I don’t even see a cup of water.”

Minh Tuyet rush herself into the back to get a cup of water, “Here you are.”

Khanh Ly takes a sip, “You want me to get a fever and die from this cold water?”

“I’ll get you a hot cup then.” Minh Tuyet rush herself to the back again.

“You want me to burn my tongue?” Khanh Ly screams.

Bang Kieu holds up the cup and blow on it briefly, “Is this nice enough mother?”

Minh Tuuyet face turn bright red in anger as she scream in her head.

[Polie Station, Tu Quyen’s Office]

Tu Quyen slams on the desk, “This doesn’t make sense. I need to go find Henry.” Tu Quyen gets up, gather her stuff and walks toward the door.

The door swing open and hit Tu Quyen on the face, “Ouch!”

Cat Tien walks in swinging her phone in her hand, “Should I have knock?”

“I don’t have time to play with you.” Tu Quyen rubs her forehead.

“Who says I was playing?” Cat Tien sits on Tu Quyen chair.

Tu Quyen points at Cat Tien, “You better get out of that chair or…”

“Or what…?” Cat Tien swing side to side on the chair.

“As a madam I order you to get out!” Tu Quyen screams.

Cat Tien throws her phone onto the desk, “Take a look!”

Tu Quyen takes the phone and press play, “Why would I want to see this?”

“You know what you and your so call best friend did.”

Tu Quyen throws the phone back onto the table, “Get out or I’ll fire you.”

Cat Tien takes the phone and sees the video she took of herself smiling and making faces, “Oops wrong video.”

Cat Tien throws it back onto the desk, “Here we go!”

Tu Quyen take the phone and watch it closely as she sees herself walking into her office and Minh Tuyet hitting the cup of water out of her hand. Then she sees Minh Tuyet stealing the printing papers, “This doesn’t prove anything.”

“Nothing…? Your friend just stole police evidence.”

“What evidence? She just took some printing paper.”

“How could you… You just saw….” Cat Tien stutters.

Tu Quyen points at the door “Get out! Since this is your first mistake I won’t take away your badge, but if you do something this stupid next time. I won’t let you go easily.”

Cat Tien stomp out the door and slam the door behind her.

Tu Quyen sits herself down and take a deep breath. Suddenly the door swing open and scares Tu Quyen.

“Can I have my phone back?”

“Here…!” Tu Quyen holds out the phone.

[Gucci Company]

Tran Thai Hoa throws the pile of photos that Nhu Loan was in as the background model lying in the mud onto the table angrily, “Are these supposed to be professionals? Even my grandmother can takes better photos then these.”

“I don’t know sir, but we are not in charge of the way the photos are taken. I only pick the models.” Vina Uyen Mi looks to the ground.

“The main model doesn’t look too professional and I expect every single photo taken and release to be flawless.” Tran Thai Hoa sits down onto his chair.

“I’m sorry sir.”

“Where is everyone else?” Tran Thai Hoa pushes the photos to the ground and onto Ngoc Lien’s legs; who just walked into the room.

Ngoc Lien kicks the photos off her leg, “What did you guys do to make him so mad?”

“Look at the photos!” Tran Thai Hoa spins his chair around to where the back of his seat faces Ngoc Lien.

Ngoc Lien stands and stares at Vina Uyen Mi who picks up the photos to show it to her. Ngoc Lien evaluates and observes the photos, “They’re done quite well.”

“For a thousand dollar Budget Company…!” Tran Thai Hoa slams his hand onto the table.

“If you don’t like it we can re-do the photo shoot.” Ngoc Lien smile forcefully.

Tran Thai Hoa points at the photos, “I want the main model fire.”

Vina Uyen Mi sits and tries to listen while types down what ever Tran Thai Hoa says, “I’ll go do right after this meeting.”

“If we fire her then I’ll pick another model.” Ngoc Lien heads toward the door.

“No need…” Tran Thai Hoa stops her.

Ngoc Lien turns around with a force smile on her face, “I usually choose all the models for photo shoot.”

“I already have a model in mind for this one. Let the background model in those photos be the main model.”

“But she’s a newbie.” Ngoc Lien says.

“She outshines the main model in every aspect in those photos.”

Ngoc Lien takes a deep breath, “What can I do? You are the boss.” Ngoc Lien walks out the door snapping her fingers for Vina Uyen Mi to follow.

“It’s good to be king.” Tran Thai Hoa sits down onto his chair and smile widely.

[Police Station, Tu Quyen’s office]

“It doesn’t matter if you two are in an argument or anything, but you don’t hit your wife.” Tu Quyen slams her hands onto the table scaring the couple sitting in front of her.

“But she…” The man, Quang Minh, tries to talk.

Tu Quyen slam her hand once again, “I don’t hear anything! The only thing that matter now is that you hit your wife and I don’t tolerate that kind of bullshit.”

The woman, Hong Dao, hold her face and cries dramatically, “He hit and beat me everyday. I can’t take it anymore so I call the police…”

“You…!” Quang Minh tries to talk when Tu Quyen interrupts, “Shut up…! I don’t want to hear you. If you hit her ever again I’ll put you in jail for life.”

“She can do that…?” Quang Minh turns around and looks at all the polices, chiefs, mail mans, ect. nodding at him.

Tu Quyen screams, “Do you think of your children? This bickering and argument going between you two will affect them tremendously.”

Hong Dao burst out crying and screaming, “My children…! Why did you make them have bad parents like us?”

“I’m sorry honey that I’ve hurt you and the kids all these years.” Quang Minh grabs Hong Dao’s hand.

“It’s more like a free therapy then a capturing.” Cat Tien says confusedly.

Andy Quach smile, “This isn’t the first.”

“Usually most couples come in here and make a big scene wanting to see Madam Quyen only.” Cardin Nguyen says.

“Because most of us are guys they cry and scream until they make it into this room.” Evan Le points into the room.

James Nguyen points at Quang Minh and Hong Dao, “That couple come in once a week…”

“And only madam Quyen can handle them.” Spencer finishes.

Tu Quyen points out the door, “Now I want you two to go home and live happily as a family. I don’t want to see both of you in this police station again you hear?”

Quang Minh and Hong Dao hold each others hand and walk out the police station kissing and smiling.

“Only she can do it.” Tuan Ngoc shakes his head as he heads toward his office.

Tu Quyen closes the file, “Another one done.” She then realizes all the peoples peaking into her office and walks toward it, “Don’t you have a job to do?”

Everyone starts running crazily either back to their desk or out the police office.

Tu Quyen was about to close the door when someone pulls the door open. Standing on the other side was Minh Tuyet, “Am I not welcome?”

“What are you doing here?” Tu Quyen lets Minh Tuyet in.

[Police Station, Center Room]

“I thought that there was no visitor during working hours.” Cat Tien rolls her eyes.

Cardin Nguyen pats Cat Tien on the back, “What can we do? She’s our madam.”

“I don’t think it’s fair.” Cat Tien pouches.

Evan Le points at the clock, “It is fair. Lunch hour…!”

Everyone in the police station starts running to go get lunch leaving Cat Tien sitting alone looking at Tu Quyen’s door with envy. Cat Tien then looks across the room to see the only door that might contain her only escape to her freedom from Tu Quyen.

[Police Station, Tu Quyen’s office]

“What are you doing here?” Tu Quyen sits at her chair.

Minh Tuyet place two white to-go rice box on Tu Quyen’s desk, “I know you’re too busy to get yourself some lunch so I brought it to you.”

Tu Quyen grabs one of the white boxes, “When did you turn all caring and nice?”

“Always have…!” Minh Tuyet winks at Tu Quyen.

Tu Quyen opens the white box to see fresh white rice with fried beefs and crab juice, “What I’ve been wanting.”

Both Minh Tuyet and Tu Quyen began to eat. Minh Tuyet stands up from her chair and walk over to Tu Quyen; who minimize her pages so Minh Tuyet couldn’t see.

“I can’t even see it?” Minh Tuyet put the spoon in her mouth.

Tu Quyen looks up at Minh Tuyet, “You know that I can’t show you anything related to police stuff.”

“Whatever…! What are you doing these days anyway?” Minh Tuyet is nosy.

Tu Quyen looks at Tu Quyen with wide eye, “Like I said before, I can’t tell you anything. However, I can tell you that the Henry Chuc and Dalena situation is very suspenseful.”

“How is that?”

“I don’t get how she could be brutally murder and then appear at your shop. Then on the other day I saw them talking to each other in the middle of the street.” Tu Quyen scratches her head.

“You saw them talking to each other?” Minh Tuyet is surprise.

Tu Quyen nods, “Yes! I’m loosing my mind over this case.”

“Hey Tu Quyen can you go get me a cup of hot water?” Minh Tuyet asks nicely.

Tu Quyen stands up from her chair and walk to the door, “You don’t touch anything.”

Minh Tuyet puts her hand to the air. After Tu Quyen leaves Minh Tuyet quickly maximize the page Tu Quyen was looking at; Tu Quyen was looking at once again the police profile page of Dalena. Minh Tuyet moves the mouse to the search place and types in Bang Tam.

After a few second a page with Bang Tam’s face pops up with her name, birthday, sex, ect. Minh Tuyet began to scroll down the page to see anything special. Suddenly she hears someone walking toward the door. Minh Tuyet kept calm and presses the print button.

The door opens and Tu Quyen enter with a hot cup of water, “Here’s a hot cup of water added with the love of your best friend.”

“Thank you!” Minh Tuyet stands up hurriedly and knocks the cup of water out of Tu Quyen’s hand. The cup of hot water splashes onto Tu Quyen table of files.

“The files…!” Tu Quyen screams.

With one hand Minh Tuyet helps Tu Quyen while with the other hand takes the printed papers out of the printer, “I’m so sorry.”

After Minh Tuyet puts the files into her purse she fully tries to help Tu Quyen. After they finish the files were all blurred and mess up.

Tu Quyen cries, “It took me 4 days to do this now it’s all ruin.”

“I’m so sorry Tu Quyen. I should’ve have stand up so quickly.” Minh Tuyet frowns.

“It’s ok.” Tu Quyen sighs.

Minh Tuyet stands up and walks over to hug Tu Quyen, “I have to leave now. If you need my help with anything on the files, you can tell me.”

Tu Quyen waves at Minh Tuyet who walks out the door with a devilish smile on her face. Tu Quyen takes a deep breath and pushes the files to the floor. Outside her office Cat Tien sit at her desk filming the incident with her videophone, “Let’s see how much longer can you boss me around?”

[Outside Police Station, Minh Tuyet’s Car]

Sitting in the driver seat Minh Tuyet takes the paper out of her purse with a bright smile on her face, “Thank you!” Minh Tuyet flips through the pages finding nothing, “She hasn’t done anything wrong involving the police.” Minh Tuyet continues to look around and suddenly her smile widen at a picture of Bang Tam’s little brother.

[TH & KD Designs Company]

Ky Duyen slaps one of the girl designer across the face, “You slut!”

“I didn’t mean to do it Mrs. Duyen.” The girl designer holds her face.

Ky Duyen holds up a stack of pictures, “You’re one of the best designer in our company. Don’t we pay you enough?”

“I didn’t want to, but…”

“The door is right there. Go…!” Ky Duyen points at the door.

The girl designer cries her way out the door leaving Ky Duyen with teary eyes as she stomp her way back to her office.

“Two top design in two week.” Truc Linh makes a worried face.

Truc Lam rolls her eyes, “It’s great for top designer to be fire.”

“Why do you say that?” Truc Linh asks.

“Don’t you see that since both Mrs. Duyen top designers are gone, she must need two to replace the spots?” Truc Lam winks at Truc Linh.

Truc Linh smile, “That must be us two because we’ve been here the longest and has the most experience.”

Bao Han whisper under her voice, “Been here the longest and you both don’t have any great designs.”

Bao Han walks back over to her desk and turns on the computer and sees that someone had aim her.

Lu Bu: Hey!

Diao Chan: You usually never aim me at this hour.

Lu Bu: It’s lunch time for me.

Diao Chan: I just finish eating lunch.

Lu Bu: Anything new lately?

Diao Chan: Another top designer just got fire.

Lu Bu: Two in a roll. Score!

Diao Chan: Why would you say that?

Lu Bu: Two booted out meaning you might have a chance to move up.

Diao Chan: I don’t want to rise like that. I want to get a raise for my designs.

Lu Bu: I hope you the best of luck.

Diao Chan: g2g someone is coming. Bye, bye.

[Police Station, “Lu Bu’s” Office]

“Lu Bu” closes his laptop and walks to the window; he uses his hand to push down the window covering to look across the room at Tu Quyen’s office.

“Lu Bu” sees Tu Quyen working hard trying to retype all of the paper that was ruined by Minh Tuyet. He quickly let go of the window covering the minute Tu Quyen look directly toward his office.

[Hospital, Bang Tam’s Room]

Once again with a basket of fruits and a bocce of flower, but this time Minh Tuyet had something else in her purse ready to make a scene. Minh Tuyet places down the items onto the counter like always and sit onto the bed next to Bang Tam.

“How are you feeling today?” Minh Tuyet asks sweetly.

Bang Tam take a deep breath, “The doctor told me that I’m healthy enough to get out the hospital next week.”

“That’s great to hear.” Minh Tuyet smile.

“When I get out, I want to once again be the owner of the coffee shop and you two will be welcome anytime you want to visit.”

“I guess you have thought it through that you won’t sell it to me.” Minh Tuyet stands up.

Bang Tam hold Minh Tuyet’s hand, “I need this shop. This is the only way to support myself and…”

“…Your little brother who has cancer?” Minh Tuyet interrupts.

“How did… how?” Bang Tam is confused.

Minh Tuyet throws the stack of papers onto Bang Tam’s bed, “You don’t want anything to happen to that little kid do you?”

Bang Tam grabs Minh Tuyet’s hand, “This is between us. Please don’t mess with him.”

Minh Tuyet pulls her hand away from Bang Tams’, “My lawyer will be here next week. I want to hear that you sign the paper and if I don’t hear what I wants then don’t blame me…”

“Please, please don’t hurt him.” Bang Tam cries trying to get out of the bed.

Minh Tuyet grabs her purse and walks out of the hospital leaving Bang Tam sobbing and hugging the picture of her little brother on the printed out paper, “Please, please don’t hurt him.”

Nhu Loan stands in her little dirty room this time with an elegant white dress and a big smile across her face, “This is so beautiful.”

Vina Uyen Mi slams at the door, “We don’t have all day!”

Nhu Loan smile happily once again and open the door. Vina Uyen Mi starts walking letting Nhu Loan trailing her in the white dress.

“You are quite lucky. Not every new model gets to be the main model of a world wide photo shoot.”

“I want to thanks you…”

Vina Uyen Mi looks at Nhu Loan, “You think I got you the job? You must thank the boss of the place.”

“But I’ve never met the…” Nhu Loan thinks back to the interview and the incident between the two when she bumps into him.

They reach the same room from yesterday where she had to lay in mud, but this time she was to stand on the bridge looking up. Nhu Loan walks herself to the bridge and starts to pose shyly.

“What kind of poses are those?” The photographer screams.

Nhu Loan takes a deep breath, “He believed in me.” Nhu Loan then starts to pose sexily looking fiercely at the camera amazes the photographer and everyone in the room.

“She’s a newbie?” The photographer is amaze.

The light shines brightly into Nhu Loan’s eyes, but she keep on smiling and posing just like a professional.

2007-08-01T11:50:00.000-05:00

Guest Star (s):
Vina Uyen Mi – Receptionist
Bang Tam – Owner of coffee shop

[Gucci Company]

Nhu Loan walks into the company knowing nothing to do. She sees models running here and there to get clothes off of hangers. Nhu Loan walks confusingly toward a room and stare inside to see the same guy, Tran Thai Hoa, which have interviewed her the other day.

Nhu Loan smile looking at Tran Thai Hoa giving a speech and she wonders what he was talking about. Her smile continues to get bigger and bigger when she sees him look at her which causes her to blushes.

Suddenly someone from behind tap her on the shoulder. When Nhu Loan turns around it was the receptionist, Vina Uyen Mi.

“Why are you standing here?” Vina Uyen Mi asks.

“I came, but…” Nhu Loan tries to explain when Vina Uyen Mi interrupted, “I don’t want to hear it follow me.”

Nhu Loan follows Vina Uyen Mi through the company passing room by room. After what seem to be a long walk they stop at a hallway which look unclean and disgusting with toilet papers and what seems to be vomit all over the floors.

Nhu Loan covers her mouth trying not to throw up, “What is this place?”

“Your changing room will be right here.” Vina Uyen Mi opens the door to her right which gave the smell of dead peoples.

Nhu Loan looks walks inside the extremely small room and sees row of empty hangers, “I’m suppose to get dress here?”

“Is there a problem?” Vina Uyen Mi gives Nhu Loan a bag and walks off.

Nhu Loan put the bag on the floor and turns on the light. Nhu Loan then looks around the room and sighs, “At least I get my own room.”

Nhu Loan opens the bag and sees a nasty brown looking dress, but manage to put it back on. After she puts on the dress, Nhu Loan walks out the room to see two models vomiting at the corners. Nhu Loan makes a disgusting face and runs off.

As Nhu Loan was walking she notice that everyone she passes had an evil look at her which causes her to be embarrass. Nhu Loan rolls her eyes when she sees Vina Uyen Mi walking toward her ways.

“What took you so long?” Vina Uyen Mi screams as she walks quickly.

“Where are we going?” Nhu Loan asks as she follows Vina Uyen Mi.

“Your first photo shoots.”

Nhu Loan smile, “This is wonderful my first day and I already get to work in a photo shoots.”

Vina Uyen Mi and Nhu Loan reach a room where a photographer was taking pictures at a model posing over a fake bridge.

“Where are the background models?” The photographer screams.
Vina Uyen Mi pushes Nhu Loan toward the photographer, “Here is one there will be more coming soon.”

“What…? I’m a background model?” Nhu Loan points at herself.

“Are you expecting to be a super model on your first day?” Vina Uyen Mi rolls her eyes.

Nhu Loan makes a sad face and walks over to the fake set, “A background model…?”

“She looks too good for a background model! Put on some make-up and mess up her hair.” The photographer screams.

“The room’s not that big you don’t have to scream.” Nhu Loan whispers to herself.

A man, Lay Minh, runs toward Nhu Loan with a make-up kit and starts putting on make-up and he eventually puts a brown wig on her. Lay Minh then gives Nhu Loan a mirror and her eyes bulges at the horrifying site. Her hair was now brown with leaves glued to it while she has dark brown make-up on.

“What am I suppose to be?” Nhu Loan frowns.

“Lay in that.” The photographer points under the bridge where there were brown muds everywhere.

Nhu Loan take a deep breath and walks under the bridge once the mud touches the bottom of her feet Nhu Loan made a disgusting face. “It’s just like a mud bath.”

Once Nhu Loan lays herself down on the mud she starts to sink to where only her face was showing. She desperately tries to float up by twisting both her leg background. On top the photographer floats in the air with a raising machine and starts to captures at the model looking up.

Nhu Loan tries to look seductive and sexy even with her nasty looking hair and make-up while sinking deep into the dark brown mud, “This isn’t all that bad. Pretty relaxing…”

After the photo shoots Nhu Loan walks all the way back to her dark and nasty hall to take a shower. Nhu Loan peaks inside the bathroom to see if anyone was inside. Once she realizes no one was there she tip toe toward the shower and takes off her muddy dress. Nhu Loan turns on the shower and screams, “Why is this so cold?”

Even in the cold water Nhu Loan still manage to clean herself up once she finish Nhu Loan puts back on her original clothes. Nhu Loan takes another deep breath and walks toward the door when she sees a large cockroach crawling across the room. In fear Nhu Loan screams and runs straight toward the door. She continues to run in fear with her hand waving in the air and her eyes close.

Because of having her eyes close she accidentally runs straight into Tran Thai Hoa arms. Nhu Loan opens her eyes and sees herself in Tran Thai Hoa arms and smiles shyly, “You’re so hot!”

“What?” Tran Thai Hoa asks.

“I mean I’m so sorry.” Nhu Loan bob her heads up and down and runs toward the exit.

Tran Thai Hoa smile sweetly at Nhu Loan who has a trail of toilet paper stuck to the bottom of her shoes while running and bumping into people as she tries to make an exit.

[Police office, Tuan Ngoc’s Office]

“It’s all her fault!” Cat Tien points at Tu Quyen.

Tu Quyen folds her hand while sitting down, “How it is my fault?”

“How it is not your fault?” Cat Tien rolls her eyes.

“Can one of you tell me what happened?” Tuan Ngoc rubs his forehead.

“I told her to go interview and ‘talk’ to the witness, but instead she went and stalk the guy causing to get frighten and scare.” Tu Quyen explains.

“No, no, no she told me to go stalk to him not talk to him.” Cat Tien depends herself.

Tu Quyen and Cat Tien scream and argue leaving Tuan Ngoc with a big headache listening to the two. “Shut up!” Tuan Ngoc screams, “Both of you. I’m your chief and if I say you work together then you’ll work together. If you don’t like it the door is that way.” Tuan Ngoc presents the door.

Tu Quyen and Cat Tien look at each other and Cat Tien sticks her tongue out at Tu Quyen while Tu Quyen folds her arm and falls back onto the chair taking in a deep breath.

“Anymore questions?” Tuan Ngoc screams spitting in Cat Tien and Tu Quyen’s face.

“No sir!” Both Tu Quyen and Cat Tien salute.

They both walk toward the door and Cat Tien tries to walk faster to get out of the door first. “Cat Tien…?” Tu Quyen says in a sweet voice.

“What do you need madam Quyen?” Cat Tien twinkle her eyes.

“Isn’t madam supposed to walk in the front?”

“No… I mean of course.” Cat Tien fakes a sweet voice as she sees Tuan Ngoc looking at them. Cat Tien opens the door and hold it for Tu Quyen to walk out, “It’s good to be madam Quyen.”

Tu Quyen walks back to her room leaving Cat Tien mad. Andy Quach walks over to Cat Tien and asks, “What happened in there? We heard you scream, then Tu… Madam Quyen scream and even chief Tuan Ngoc scream.”

“It’s her.” Cat Tien points at Tu Quyen’s office, “She always have to have her way. I wish I wasn’t working under her.”

“We only have one madam and she’s a pretty good teacher only if you don’t fight…” Andy Quach began to look sad.

Cat Tien looks at the office opposite of Tu Quyen’s office, “Whose office is that?”

“I have no idea since I joined I have never seen anyone walk out of that office or in. I heard peoples say that he has the same position as Madam Quyen, maybe even higher.”

“Oh really…? Meaning I can get a way out of being under control of that evil woman.” Cat Tien seem interested.

“Mostly all the new officers are under Madam Quyen, while the more experience one are under him.”

“It’s a him…?” Cat Tien smile devilishly.

[Wisteria High School, Cooking Class]

After telling Van Quynh she won’t need a ride home, Angela Tram Anh walks back into the cooking class to find Duong Trieu Vu waiting for her.

“You really want to learn this?” Angela Tram Anh asks.

“I do. I want to make it for someone.” Duong Trieu Vu answers.

“Someone you love?” Angela Tram Anh says in a mad tone.

“I have too. She’s my mother.”

After hearing it was his mother Angela Tram Anh starts to smile again, “Well the first step of making fried eggs is we need eggs and then…”

Angela Tran Anh continues to teach Duong Trieu Vu what Van Quynh had taught her yesterday night. “This is enough for today.”

“But I want to finish learning before that special day.”

“It’s getting really late and I have to get home.” Angela Tram Anh says.

“How longer is the recipe?”

Angela Tram Anh lies, “Not much longer.”

“Well I’ll see you tomorrow.” Duong Trieu Vu leaves while studying the paper where he has written down the recipe.

“I haven’t even finished learning how to cook it yet. How am I supposed to teach it to you?” Angela Tram Anh scratches her head.

[Hospital, Bang Tam’s Room]

Minh Tuyet once again walks alone with a basket of fruit in one hand and a bocce of flowers in another. Minh Tuyet walks in with a huge fake smile on her face, “How are you doing today?”

“I’m doing quite well.” Bang Tam says in a reserve voice.

Minh Tuyet walks over and places the gifts on the counter and sits herself next to Bang Tam, “I want to apologize about the other day where I…”

“It’s ok I understand.”

“You do…?” Minh Tuyet smile.

“I understand that after the incident you have been taken care of the shop and fell in love working at the shop.”

“Yes that’s it…”

“However, I can’t sell it to you because it’s my family business.”

“Well…” Minh Tuyet stands up, “What can I do for you to sell me that shop?”

“I’m sorry Minh Tuyet. I truly thank you for taking care of the shop, but I can’t sell it to you.” Bang Tam tries to hold Minh Tuyet hands, but Minh Tuyet pushes her hands away.

“How could you say you understand?” Minh Tuyet shakes her head and walks off angrily.

[Home, Living room]

Bao Han and Van Quynh sit on the sofa watching TV when the door flings open. Standing at the door was the furious Tu Quyen, she slams the door behind her, and screams “I hate her so much!”

Tu Quyen walks over to the sofa and sits herself down next to Bao Han and takes the bowl of ice-cream out of her hand and starts to eat it.

“That was mine…?”

“I’m mad.” Tu Quyen screams.

“Shit!” Van Quynh stands up and starts pouring drinks and throwing foods all over the floor. “Tu Quyen I accidentally drop some foods and drinks can you come and clean it up for me?”

Tu Quyen walks over to Van Quynh and hugs her, “Thank you.”

“Smart move…” Bao Han points at Van Quynh.

Suddenly the door flies open again, but this time standing at the door was Nhu Loan with her hair still wet and smug make-up and trail of toilet paper under her shoes. Nhu Loan slams the door behind her, and screams, “I hate my job so much!”

Nhu Loan walks and sits next to Bao Han, who tries to moves away from the sticky Nhu Loan. “I’m so miserable.” Nhu Loan hugs the non breathing Bao Han.

Bao Han mouth the word to Van Quynh, “She stinks.”

Van Quynh leaves the room and come back with air freshener, “Best for stinky mess.” Van Quynh starts to blows it around Nhu Loan’s body; that was still sobbing and crying.

“Thank you!” Bao Han mouth the word to Van Quynh.

Suddenly the door slams hard against the wall.

“Another one…?” Bao Han and Van Quynh scream.

Minh Tuyet throws her purse at the stairs case as she slam the door. “Who does she think she is? I don’t take care of things for free!” Minh Tuyet walks angrily over and sits on the other side of Bao Han.

“Can you believe it?” Minh Tuyet screams at Bao Han.

“Yes I believe you can kill me with your screaming.”

“I’m so mad!” Minh Tuyet screams.

Van Quynh sighs and runs up the stairs. Once she returns she holds a gigantic pillow and throws it at Minh Tuyet, “You know me so well.” Minh Tuyet began to punches and cusses at the pillow.
“This is going to be a long night.” Bao Han shakes her head.

“Tell me about it.” Van Quynh turns on the volume of the TV to drown over the crying, sobbing, screaming, and cussing of the ladies.

Bang Tam – Owner of coffee shop

[Home]

Van Quynh stands in the back yard frying eggs following the steps inside of the book Huong Lan had given to her on the first day of cooking class. Thinking back of how scared she was of Huong Lan being her cooking teacher.

Van Quynh continues to fry the egg when she notices that one of the steps inside the book was wrong, “This isn’t right! You’re supposed to add the shrimps not more salt that would make the eggs taste extra salty.”

Van Quynh shakes her head and made the egg her own way. After about thirty minute Van Quynh finish one delicious yellow fried eggs with extra shrimp in the center. Right there Van Quynh wanted to just pick it up and eat it right there, but remembering that she needed to presents it to her new teacher, Huong Lan.

Van Quynh places the fried egg carefully in her bag and walk to her car. After getting into the car she looks at the car clock and realizes that she was late. Reversing her car rapidly she hears a thump. “I killed someone!” Van Quynh screams and runs out of her car. Van Quynh runs quickly toward the back of her car and there she sees a man lying on the ground face down.

“I killed him.” Van Quynh grabs her head. “I need an ambulance.” Van Quynh struggles to get her phone out of her bag; while shaking she tries to dial 911, but accidentally dials 912.

“Hello? Is this the police I need an ambulance quick.” Van Quynh cries into the phone.

“Please dial the zip code or a number that exist.”

Van Quynh looks at her phone, “I hate my stubby fingers.” Van Quynh tries to dial again.

“You don’t need to call the police. I’m ok!” The man stands up.

“I’m so sorry! I was backing out to go to school and I didn’t see you…” Van Quynh starts to stutter when the man, Duong Trieu Vu, turns around. “…It’s you from school.”

“Remember to be more careful next time. That person might not be as lucky as me.” Duong Trieu Vu picks up his belongings and walks off.

Van Quynh tilts her head to the right looking confuse at Duong Trieu Vu limping away.

Angela Tram Anh, Huynh Gia Tuan, and Huong Giang stands behind Van Quynh and tilts theirs head the same way to see what Van Quynh was looking at.

“What are you looking at?” Angela Tram Anh scares Van Quynh.

Van Quynh shakes her head, “Nothing…! Nothing at all….”

“We are kind of late for school.” Huynh Gia Tuan runs into the car.

Huong Giang rubs her neck, “My neck is starting to hurt.”

[In the car]

Sitting in the passenger seat, Angela Tram Anh, digs throught Van Quynh’s bag, “I smell something delicious.”

“Don’t touch my stuff…” Van Quynh screams while trying to drive.

“What is this?” Angela Tram Anh takes out Van Quynh’s diary.

With one hand on the wheel and one trying to get the diary Van Quynh runs past a red light, “Look at what you made me do.”

“If you just let me read it you wouldn’t have ran the red light.” Angela Tram Anh sticks out her tongue.

“Come on Van Quynh what else don’t we know about you?” Huynh Gia Tuan laughs.

Still rubbing her neck Huong Giang says confusedly, “I don’t know anything about her give me the diary.”

Angela Tram Anh throws the diary back on Huong Giang’s lap, “It slips out of my hands.”

Van Quynh turns back and grabs the diary when she turns back the light suddenly turns red and she steps hard on the brakes. When she opens her eyes she once again sees Duong Trieu Vu standing in fear at the front of her car.

Duong Trieu Vu shakes his head at Van Quynh as she crosses the street. Van Quynh puts her head down with disappointment and shame. After she sees Duong Trieu Vu cross she tilts her head to the right looking at him leaves.

Angela Tram Anh, Huynh Gia Tuan, and Huong Giang once again tilt to the right like before, “So that’s what you were looking at.” Huynh Gia Tuan says.

“Who can resist those buns?” Angela Tram Anh winks at Van Quynh.

“Shut up…! Just don’t disturb me when I drive.” Van Quynh steps on the gas.

Huong Giang rubs her neck, “One more time and I’ll break my neck.”

Van Quynh thinks to herself, “Two times in a day that must really means something.” Van Quynh sighs.

Tu Quyen slams on the table, “I wanted you to go talk to the witness not stalk him!”

“Well if you want something done correctly you should’ve speak more clearly.” Cat Tien folds her arms.

“I made it very clearly that I wanted you to talk and ask him questions about the case. Now that the witness is scared off by you following and stalking him. He will not be working nor helping with the case.” Tu Quyen rubs her forehead.

Cat Tien shrug, “Not my fault.”

In rage Tu Quyen runs toward Cat Tien and tackle her down to the floor breaking the chair. Tu Quyen continues to slap and punch her in the face while screaming and cussing at the top of her lungs.

Tu Quyen shakes the thoughts out of her head, “I need to talk to chief Tuan Ngoc about this situation about us working together.”

“He’ll say the same thing.” Cat Tien smile.

“You want to play? I’ll play with you.” Tu Quyen puts her hand to her waist as she moves closer to Cat Tien’s face. “Bring it on lady.” Cat Tien says with her hands fold.

“Glad to know.” Minh Tuyet forces a smile.

Bang Tam questions, “Where’s Bang Kieu?”

“He’s busy with the shop today so he told me to go by myself.”

“I have to really thank you two for taking care of my shop. That’s the only I have left.” Bang Tam began to cry.

“Talking about the shop I want to ask you something.” Minh Tuyet sits herself next to Bang Tam.

Bang Tam holds onto Minh Tuyet’s hand, “Sure go ahead.”

“Well this isn’t easy, but Bang Kieu and I would like it if you would sell us the shop.” Bang Tam’s hand slid slowly off of Minh Tuyet’s, “I know it’s a lot to ask, but don’t worry we will pay a decent amount of money for it.”

“Thank you for both of your help and the offer, but this shop is the only thing my families have left me.”

Minh Tuyet stands up quickly, “You certainly aren’t thinking clearly today. I’ll return to talk with you at another time.” Minh Tuyet grabs her bag and walks angrily out the door leaving Bang Tam to sit alone crying.

[Wisteria High School, Cooking Class]

Once everyone left the class Van Quynh takes out the fried egg she had keep carefully in her bag and walks toward the front of the class. She then places the fried eggs on the table, “I finish.”

“That was certainly quick.” Huong Lan speaks while still typing something on the computer.

“I don’t want to brag but I’m a pretty good cook. Try the egg and you’ll see.” Van Quynh smile confidently.

Huong Lan grabs her bag and walks toward the door, “No need for that now.”

“What…? I did what you wanted me to.” Van Quynh chase after Huong Lan.

“Did you…?” Huong Lan turns around.

“You wanted me to cook the fried egg and I did. What else do you want me to do? Cook for a village…?” Van Quynh rolls her eyes.

“I thought you were much more then this.” Huong Lan shakes her head.

Van Quynh laughs, “I know that this is about… It’s about my sister and her friends isn’t it?”

Huong Lan walks back and points her finger at Van Quynh, “I don’t mix up my work and personal life.”

“Then why…?”

“Since you are too arrogant to figures it out. I’ll explain it to you.” Huong Lan begins, “I wanted to test you if you could take directions and obviously you couldn’t.”

“I did follow all…” Van Quynh stops and remembers about the mistaken steps in the book, “If I made the eggs that way the eggs would taste very disgusting.”

Huong Lan smile, “Remember the first step of getting a job is to follow their directions even if it’s not what you want.”

Van Quynh stand disappointed as she looks at Huong Lan leaving school, “She’s just way too much.

Angela Tram Anh walks into the class to find no one, “She should remember that she’s taking us home.” Angela Tram Anh walks to Huong Lan’s desk and sees the fried eggs, “That looks delicious!”

Looking around Angela Tram Anh takes one piece of the fried egg and eats it. Her eye bulges at the good taste.

“What are you doing here?” Duong Trieu Vu walks into the room.

Angela Tram Anh swallows the rest of the eggs in her mouth and turns around with the plate of fried eggs in her hand, “Just wanted Mrs. Huong Lan to taste some of my food, but since she’s not here. Do you want any?”

Duong Trieu Vu starts to walk toward the door, “No thanks.”

“I just want an opinion on my cooking skill.” Angela Tram Anh makes puppy eyes.

“Fine…!” Duong Trieu Vu takes a bite at the yummy fried eggs, “This have to be one of the best fried eggs I’ve tasted.”

“So it’s good?”

“Amazing…! How did you make it?”

“Secret ingredients if you want I can teach you.” Angela Tram Anh says quickly without thinking.

Duong Trieu Vu smile, “I would love too. My mom… someone I know loves fried eggs and I don’t know how to make it. Maybe you can teach me here after school every day.”

Angela Tram Anh laughs nervously, “Sure thing…!”

“I got to go now see you tomorrow.” Duong Trieu Vu walks off smiling.

Angela Tram Anh smack herself in the head, “You stupid! You don’t know how to cook.”

“We all know you don’t know how to cook!” Van Quynh scares Angela Tram Anh.

Van Quynh sees the empty plate of fried eggs that she has brought and Angela Tram Anh’s greasy mouth, “You ate my fried eggs?”

“I didn’t mean too it was just way too delicious… Wait this is yours?” Angela Tram ANh wipes her mouth with a tissue paper.

“Yes and you just ate it.”

“Don’t matter about that it’s amazing. Can you teach me how to make it please?” Angela Tram Anh says with excitement.

“Well it’s kind of a secret recipe…” Van Quynh jokes, “But since you’re my best friend I’ll help you.”

“Thank you! You are the best!” Angela Tram Anh hugs Van Quynh.

Henry Chuc – man searching for wife

[Cat Tien’s Apartment]

Andy Quach wakes up with a huge headache. As he rubs his forehead, Andy Quach looks around to see where he was. Trying desperately to remember what had happen yesterday he looks down to see that he was not wearing any clothes. His eye bulges in fear at the scene, “What have I done?”

The door of the room opens and Cat Tien walks into the room with a cup of coffee and a big grin on her face, “Here is some coffee, it will help you wake up.” Cat Tien place the cup of coffee on the counter next to the bed.

Cat Tien sits on the bed next to Andy Quach who was trying to covers himself up with the cover.

“Did… I?” Andy Quach says slowly hoping for a no.

“It’s ok if you don’t take responsibility because it’s not your fault.” Cat Tien puts her head down.
“No… I’ll take responsibility if I… We did.”

Cat Tien turns around and holds Andy Quach’s hands, “This means I’m your woman and you’re my man.”

“I guess so…” Andy Quach covers his head with the sheets.

Cat Tien walks out of the room and remembers about last night…

[Flashback]

“I love you!” Andy Quach pulls Cat Tien toward him.

They began to kiss passionately when Andy Quach fell asleep. Cat Tien stood up, but Andy Quach stops her by grabbing her hand, “I love you! I will love you forever…”

The words made Cat Tien smile widely showing her magnificent white teeth. Cat Tien came forward toward Andy Quach again.

“I want you by my side forever… Tu Quyen.”

Once Cat Tien heard that the person that Andy Quach was talking about she slaps him right across the face and runs toward her living room.

Cat Tien pushes and threw everything around screaming in rage and anger, “Why doesn’t he love me?” Cat Tien falls onto the sofa chair crying. Suddenly a devilish thought came up on her mind and she walks back into her room with a grin, “If you don't love me then I'll make you think you owe me.”

[Flashback Over]

“Get ready for work.” Cat Tien winks at Andy Quach as she close the door.

[Coffee Shop]

Tu Quyen hurriedly chows down the glazed donut Bang Kieu had brought out for her, “I’m almost late for work.”

“Can you be a little late? I have something to tell you guys.” Nhu Loan smile.

Bao Han looks at her make-up mirror, “What’s the big news?."

“Why can’t you just tell me now?” Tu Quyen stuffs the rest of the donut into her mouth.

Bao Han rubs the chocking Tu Quyen, “Where’s Minh Tuyet?”

“Ask Bang Kieu… I want all three of you to hear my great news.” Nhu Loan fixes her hair.

“Bang Kieu where’s Minh Tuyet?” Bao Han screams across the room while still patting the chocking Tu Quyen’s back.

“I don’t know. She didn’t call or anything.” Bang Kieu replied as he tries to make coffee and work the register.

“Minh Tuyet… is…” Tu Quyen chokes.

Bao Han makes a disgusting face, “No talking while eating missy.”

“But… Minh…”

Nhu Loan gives Tu Quyen coffee, “Here drink it down and then talk."

Tu Quyen drinks down the food in her mouth, “Minh Tuyet told me this morning that she’ll be out with a friend.”

“A friend…? Guy or girl…?” Bao Han leans toward Tu Quyen.

“She didn’t say.” Tu Quyen shudders.

“It’s a guy.” Nhu Loan says quickly.

Tu Quyen pushes Nhu Loan, “Don’t make up stuff. If she hears you, she’ll kill you.”

“No look.” Nhu Loan points out the window where Minh Tuyet and another male stand - hugging across the street.

“That slut…!” Bao Han screams.

“Who’s a slut?” Bang Kieu puts his head between Nhu Loan and Bao Han.

The three ladies eyes bulges and stands up covering the scene, “No one.”

Bang Kieu tries to look through the lady to see what they are hiding, “What are you guys trying to cover up?”

“Nothing…” Nhu Loan leans on Tu Quyen.

“Then why did you stand up when I came over?” Bang Kieu says anxiously.

“Well… We just wanted to ask you if we look nice today or not.” Bao Han smile seductively.

“Yeah…!” Nhu Loan and Tu Quyen smile nervously.

Bang Kieu raises his eyebrow, “I can’t answer that. I have Minh Tuyet.”

“Well then never mind.” Tu Quyen fakes a disappointing look.

Bang Kieu starts to walk away. The three ladies still stood in place faking to pose and fix their clothes. Seeing Bang Kieu at the counter once again the ladies sit theirs self down.

“That was a close one.” Nhu Loan says as the three of their head get close together.
“Is she cheating on Bang Kieu?” Bao Han puts her hand to her mouth.

Tu Quyen rubs her chin like an old grandpa, “Maybe it’s not what it looks like.”

Bao Han rolls her eyes, “She’s with a guy intimately hugging in broad day light.”

“What were you guys hiding?” Bang Kieu says as he stares out the window.

The ladies look around and run up to Bang Kieu; who was standing at the window. However, when they look out the window Minh Tuyet and the mysterious guy was already gone.

“Phew…” Tu Quyen looks at Bao Han and Nhu Loan.

“What is everyone looking at?” Minh Tuyet asks as she places her stuff on the table.

Bang Kieu came over to give her a hug and kiss leaving the ladies looking shamefully at Minh Tuyet.

The ladies came over and sat theirs self down angrily as soon as they see Bang Kieu leaves.

“Spill it out woman!” Bao Han says with wide eyes.

“Who is he? What’s his name? Where is he from?” Nhu Loan folds her arm.

“And how could you do that?” Tu Quyen shakes her head.

“What are you guys talking about?” Minh Tuyet is confuses.

Bao Han slam her hand, “You know exactly what we are talking about.” Bao Han shake her hand in pain at the slamming.

“We saw you with another guy hugging intimately right over there.” Nhu Loan points outside the window.

“That’s what you guys were looking at.” Minh Tuyet laughs.

Tu Quyen makes a sad face, ‘How could you be joking about this. You can’t just have your cake and eat it too.”

“He’s a long time friend that I haven’t met since high school.” Minh Tuyet explains.

“But you two look really close.” Nhu Loan says.

“Aren’t you scared that if Bang Kieu knows about this you two would…?” Bao Han questions.

Minh Tuyet rolls her eyes, “Don’t be silly. Bang Kieu would understand.”

Tu Quyen looks at her clock and scream, “I’m almost late for work. I have ten minute.”

“Me too…!” Nhu Loan screams.

Tu Quyen and Nhu Loan stands up and pack their belonging and was about to head out the door when Bao Han grabs Nhu Loan hand, “You don’t have a job.”

“I do now. You are looking at a Gucci model.” Nhu Loan poses.

Nhu Loan, Bao Han, Minh Tuyet, and Tu Quyen jumps up and down screaming happily when Tu Quyen sees Henry Chuc and a blonde hair woman looking exactly like Dalena. They look like they were screaming and arguing with each other.

“I have to go to work now.” Tu Quyen separate from the ladies and runs outside to chase after Henry Chuc and ‘Dalena’. However, once Tu Quyen got outside she couldn’t find Henry Chuc and ‘Dalena’ anywhere.

[Police Station, Tu Quyen’s office]

Tu Quyen sits at her desk wondering how Dalena could be dead and still alive at the same time, “Thing doesn’t seem what it is because it takes two. Revenge me…” Tu Quyen continues to repeat the saying in her head.

There was a knock at the door and Cat Tien enters the office with a wide smile on her face. Cat Tien place a folder on Tu Quyen’s desk, “Madam this is from chief Tuan Ngoc.”

Tu Quyen opens the folder and sees a new assignment, ‘Thank you! You can leave now.”

“You don’t want me to do anything?” Cat Tien asks.

“I need times to read the new assignment.”

Cat Tien points to Tuan Ngoc’s office, “But he said that he wanted me to help you with this project.”

“He wants you to help me…?” Tu Quyen laughs, “There must be a mistake because I’ve always work alone.”

“You can ask him yourself.” Cat Tien smile.

Tu Quyen stood up from her chair and marches over to Tuan Ngoc’s office. When Tu Quyen enters Tuan Ngoc was on the phone, he made a hand sign to tell them to stop leaving Tu Quyen standing impatiently next to the smiling Cat Tien.

“What do you need?” Tuan Ngoc signals them to sit.

Tu Quyen walks over to the chair, “Is it true that you want her to help me with this project?”

“Yes I did…”

Cat Tien sits down on the chair with a satisfying look, “I told you so.”

“You know I’ve always worked alone.”

“There’s always a first.” Tuan Ngoc tries to explain.

“But… She’s a rookie.”

Cat Tien stands up from her chair, “What does that mean?”

“Calm down you two. Yes you two will be working together…” Tuan Ngoc says as Tu Quyen stomp the floor. “However, Cat Tien you’ll have to listen to all Tu Quyen’s order since she’s more experience.”

Tu Quyen smile and sits down on the chair, “Now that’s more like it.”

Cat Tien’s jaw drop, “How…? Erg….”

“Is that all?” Tuan Ngoc asks.”

Tu Quyen walks out of the office with a grin on her face while Cat Tien looks piss and angry.

“It’s great to be a madam.”

“I can’t believe I have to listen to you.”

“Well there’s always a first.” Tu Quyen walks fiercely to her office door and close it as she wink at Cat Tien.

Cat Tien shakes in anger, “This is just the beginning!”

Bao Han and Calvin Hiep sit in the middle of the room with pencils and paper ready to begin while the whole company watches from behind in excitement. Trinh Hoi stands behind Bao Han while Ky Duyen stands behind Calvin Hiep.

Ky Duyen whispers into Calvin Hiep’s ear, “Don’t embarrass me or you know what will happen…”

Calvin Hiep breathes out heavily, “I won’t disappoint you Mrs. Duyen.”

Trinh Hoi stands up and announces “The rules are for you to draw one of the designs in this package of designs…”

“Wait…!” Ky Duyen screams. “We have already heard of one design. Therefore it’s unfair for them to draw that one.”

“I’m dead.” Calvin Hiep closes his eyes.

“Fine then you picks one of the designs.” Trinh Hoi hands over the package to Ky Duyen.

Ky Duyen flips and looks through the designs the pick randomly. She then holds it up for Bao Han and Calvin Hiep to look and observes then shows it to Trinh Hoi and the rest of the peoples in the company. The moment Bao Han set eyes on the blue extravagant strapless and backless gown, Bao Han went straight to work. However, Calvin Hiep on the other hand just sat there scare and terrified about losing his job.

Ky Duyen came over to picks up the designs and sees the full drawing of Bao Han while Calvin Hiep had nothing on his paper. Bao Han smiles widely while Calvin shakes in fear. Ky Duyen hands Trinh Hoi both of the drawing and Trinh Hoi made a confusing face. Bao Han ran toward the confused Trinh Hoi and grabs the drawing to see that both of the drawing looks exactly the same.

Bao Han holds both of the drawing in her hand and screams, “How could this have happen?”

Ky Duyen turns around and winks at Calvin Hiep which causes him to smile in joy. Calvin Hiep stands up from his chair and walks over to Bao Han, “It’s obvious that you I know the designs.

“By cheating...!” Bao Han screams.

“How…? Can you please explain it to me?” Calvin Hiep scoffs.

“She can’t but I can.” Tuong Khue steps up out of the crowd of designers.

Ky Duyen eyes bulges, “This is no time for you to talk.”

“I let him talk. Go ahead…!” Trinh Hoi defends.

Tuong Khue walks over to Ky Duyen and snatches the real Calvin Hiep’s paper out of the design package that Ky Duyen had switch while picking up the designs, “This is the real drawing that Calvin Hiep drew.”

“Don’t be arrogant and stupid!” Ky Duyen snatches the designs out of Tuong Khue’s hands.

“Then why is his signature at the bottom of the piece of paper?” Bao Han questions with a smirk.

Ky Duyen checks hurriedly and sees Calvin Hiep’s signature and rolls her eyes. Because of the embarrassment Ky Duyen marches into her room and slams the door behind her leaving Calvin Hiep pale faced.

“You know I’m very sorry Bao Han.” Calvin Hiep says in a sweet voice.

“I accept your apology, but I don’t know about your boss, Trinh Hoi.” Bao Han mocks.

“Packs your belongings and I don’t think I have to tell you where the door is.” Trinh Hoi is furious.

Calvin Hiep falls onto the ground begging, “Please don’t fire me! This is the only job for me to support my family.”

“Family of one…?” Tuong Khue questions causing laughs.

“How did you… What… and…?” Calvin Hiep stutters.

Bao Han jumps up and down excitedly as everyone surrounds her. Trinh Hoi gives Bao Han a deep hug causing her to feel warm and secure. Inside her office, Ky Duyen looks at the two hugging with rage and anger.

[Gucci Company]

Nhu Loan stands in the long line of models waiting for an interview to be in the multimillion dollar modeling company. Nhu Loan observes and looks around at the other models, “They’re all so beautiful… That girl looks like she can win a beauty pageant! Why am I here? I’m not even that pretty.”

“You’re gorgeous honey.” A lady says from behind.

Nhu Loan turns around and sees the same model, Cat Ly; she was competing with during her trip to Maxim Modeling Company, “It’s you… Weren’t you the one at the other…?”

“Yes at Maxim Modeling Company. I have to say thank you.”

“For what…? I didn’t do anything.” Nhu Loan is confused.

“The speech you made really inspired me to treat myself with respect and dignity.”

“I made an impact on someone else?”

“Yeah…! Are you here for an interview?”

Nhu Loan rolls her eyes, “The line is extremely long. I’m number 101!”

“You’re one ahead of her I’m number 102.” Cat Ly laughs.

“Now I don’t have to be bored by myself anymore.”

Nhu Loan and Cat Ly continue to chat and laugh about their modeling career.

“It’s my turn already. That was so quick!”

“Good luck and nail that interview.” Cat Ly cheers.

Nhu Loan walks slowly into the room where she sees rows of clothes hanging and a runway in the middle of the large room, “This is huge.” Nhu Loan continues walking and observing everything around her.

“Over here.” A manly voice echoes in the large room.

Nhu Loan looks quickly at the directly of the voice and sees a handsome and neatly dress up man, Tran Thai Hoa, sitting at one corner of the room. Nhu Loan walks slowly and shyly toward the man, “Wait this is a modeling interview.”

Nhu Loan suddenly drops her hand to her hips and walks fiercely toward Tran Thai Hoa which causes Tran Thai Hoa to give a smirk.

When Nhu Loan reaches the desk she winks at Tran Thai Hoa and stick out her hand for a hand shake, “My name is Nhu Loan, I’m now 24 and I want to be a model of Gucci Company.”

“Why should we hire you?” Tran Thai Hoa bites the top of his pen.

“You don’t have to hire me, but I suggest you do.” Nhu Loan says demandingly.

“Because…?”

“Because I love and enjoy walking fiercely down the runway. I have a passion for fashion.”

“More…?” Tran Thai Hoa is interested.

“That’s all. I want to keep it simple.”

Tran Thai Hoa smiles, “We will give you a call when we reach a decision.”

Nhu Loan thanks and walks toward the door with her hands shaking in fear, “I can’t believe I just did that.”

Once Nhu Loan reaches the street she sighs as she looks at the company’s sign. Nhu Loan walks across the street with many other strangers, but stop in the middle of the street when she hears someone calling her name.

“Nhu Loan... Stop…!”

Nhu Loan turns around and sees the receptionist, Vina Uyen Mi, “Hi there! Is there a problem?”

“It’s not a problem just that you got the…” Vina Uyen Mi was interrupts be the honking of the car.

“What…? I can’t hear you.” Nhu Loan screams back still standing in the middle of the street.

“I say you got the…” Vina Uyen Mi once again gets overshadow by the honking of the cars.

Nhu Loan puts her hand into the air and shakes it for signals that she can’t hear anything. Suddenly the light turns green and Nhu Loan was still standing in the middle of the busy street.

Nhu Loan screams at the oncoming cars and run speedily toward the sidewalk, “That was close.”

Vina Uyen Mi walks over to Nhu Loan and pats her on the shoulder, “That was a close one. You don’t want to have to takes days off for your first few days of work.”

“I don’t have a job…” Nhu Loan smiles and fixes her hair.

“Yes you do!” Vina Uyen Mi smiles.

“I really don’t have a job. That’s why I’m here to get a job…” Nhu Loan eyes bulges, “I got the job? I’m a model of Gucci Company?”

Vina Uyen Mi gives Nhu Loan a smile, “Congratulation!”

Nhu Loan; who was standing in the middle of the street screams and yell in excitement, “I got the job! I got the job!”

[Police Station, Tu Quyen’s Office]

Tu Quyen wipes the tears away from her eyes and made her way to her desk. She sits down and tears continue to drop from her eyes. “Stop crying. It’s over!” Tu Quyen continues to remind herself, but she couldn’t help but remember all the great time the two had together.

Suddenly her cell phone rings and she picks up to hear the voice of Luong Tung Quang, “Hello?”

“What are you doing?” Luong Tung Quang questions.

“I’m at work.”

“What’s wrong you sound weird?”

“Nothing just a little sick…!” Tu Quyen fakes a cough.

“I’ll pick you up after work and we can go out for dinner.”

“Not today… I don’t feel well.”

“Then how about tomorrow night…?”

“I’ll call you when I feel better ok?”

“Hope you feel better.”

Tu Quyen hangs up and looks at the door with tears in her eyes.

Outside that very door still stand Andy Quach in pain. Andy Quach holds up his hand and touches the door with grief and anger.

“Are you ok?” Cat Tien says in a concern voice.

“Can you do something for me?”

“Anything…”

“Go drinking with me.” Andy Quach grabs Cat Tien’s hand and they walks out the door.

[Go-Go Bar]

Andy Quach downs another beer after another leaving Cat Tien sitting with still one bottle.

“Give me more beer…!” Andy Quach screams for more.

Cat Tien sit uncomfortable on the chair staring at Andy drinking beers, “Why am I here?”

Andy Quach holds the beer bottle to the air and scream, “This feels great!” Andy Quach then looks over at the uncomfortable Cat Tien and grabs her hand, “Come with me.”

“Here we go again!”

Andy Quach and Cat Tien leaves the bar after Cat Tien pays for the beers and with his hand over Cat Tien’s shoulder the two walks dizzily down the street.

“Where are we going?” Cat Tien questions.

“We are going…” Andy Quach throws up on the wall and falls to the ground.

Cat Tien helps Andy Quach up, “Why do I have to do this?”

With the drunken Andy Quach on her shoulder Cat Tien walks them to her apartment where she lives alone by herself. She lets Andy lay on her bed, “Why am I doing this? He doesn’t love me.”

Suddenly Andy Quach grabs Cat Tien hand, “Don’t leave me.”

Cat Tien’s cheeks turns bright red, “I’m just going to go get you some coffee.”

“No… I want you by my side forever.” Andy Quach says dreamingly.

Cat Tien gulps, “Do you really mean that?”

“I love you and I'll always will” Andy Quach pulls Cat Tien toward him.

Bao Han stop at the front of the door when she sees the entire designer from the company standing around in a crowd – around 20. Scratching her head in dismay Bao Han excuses herself into the center. In the center of the crowded circle sits the two bosses, Trinh Hoi and Ky Duyen. Seeing Trinh Hoi, Bao Han’s frowns turn upside down and into a huge smile.

Trinh Hoi held in his hand Bao Han’s designing package while Ky Duyen sits beside him with her hand folds – looking very piss off and mad. The sight of Calvin Hiep entering the company Trinh Hoi stands up with a grin looking at Bao Han.

“Are we having a party today or something or that sort?” Calvin Hiep says excitedly as he puts down his belongings on his table.

With his hand holding the designing package behind his back Trinh Hoi walks toward Calvin Hiep, “Actually we are having some sort of court case going on today.”

“Fun… Can I be the witness? I’ve always wanted to be the savior of the day.” Calvin Hiep jumps excitedly.

“There’s no fun and game in this company.” Trinh Hoi slams the package of designs onto Calvin Hiep’s chest causing him to fall onto his desk.

Everyone in the company stare with shock while Bao Han smile widely and satisfyingly, “That’s what you get you stealer.”

Calvin Hiep fixes his hair and clothes, “What is this?”

“Something that doesn’t belong to you…”

Calvin Hiep opens the package and sees the designs that he had stolen from Bao Han, “I drew and created these design. Mrs. Duyen saw me brought it into the company the other day.”

“Can you describe the last design of the package?” Trinh Hoi snatches the package from Calvin Hiep.

“The last design is a black backless gown with a white belt made out of fabrics in the middle of the dress.” Calvin Hiep says proudly.

Trinh Hoi checks the designs and in his dismay every detail about the design Calvin Hiep had mention.

Ky Duyen stands up and snatches the package away from Trinh Hoi, “This was a big waste of time.”

“Wait…!” Trinh Hoi says.

“What else do you want? Wasn’t this enough embarrassment for you?” Ky Duyen rolls her eye.

“Give me the designs.” Trinh Hoi sticks out his hand.

“Obviously the designs are drawn by Calvin and not someone else.”

“Draw… Draw…” Bao Han thinks. Suddenly her eye bulges with excitement as she steps up into the center of the circle, “Why don’t we draw?”

Ky Duyen rolls her eyes, “I knew it was you.”

“Draw…? What are you doing? I got this.” Trinh Hoi whispers to Bao Han.

Bao Han laughs quietly, “Under control…? I know what I’m doing trust me.”

“I already show everyone that I knew those designs right and left. What else do you want from me?” Calvin Hiep is mad.

“I want you to draw the designs.” Bao Han smirk devilishly at Calvin Hiep.

“Who said I have too?” Calvin Hiep folds his arm.

“I said…” Trinh Hoi walks and stands behind Bao Han.

“Mrs. Duyen they…” Calvin Hiep looks worriedly at Ky Duyen.

Bao Han smile cockily, “Are you scare?”

“Of course he’s not.” Ky Duyen steps up.

In a styless professional suit and her portfolios of all her modeling pictures Nhu Loan walks into the company hoping for a great go-see. Nhu Loan runs toward the elevator when she sees that it was about to close, but she was too late.

“Damn I’m going to be late.” Nhu Loan looks at her clock.

Seeing that both the elevator were in use Nhu Loan runs toward the stair. Nhu Loan looks her folder, “Ten stair cases to go.”

When Nhu Loan reaches the top of the tenth floor her head and body were fills with sweat. Nhu Loan took a deep breath and swallows her saliva; she stands up and walks out of the door toward the interviewee.

Opening the door of the room Nhu Loan sees a line of beautiful and gorgeous models. Nhu Loan made her way through the crowd and toward the front desk, “I’m here for an interview.”

The receptionist, Vina Uyen Mi, points to the long line of models, “Here is your number wait there.”

Nhu Loan looks at her number and sees 101, “This is going to be one long and boring day.”

[Police Office, Tu Quyen’s Office]

Tu Quyen sits at her desk with her police uniform on; typing and researching about the death of Dalena Truc, the blond that was killed in the back of Eddie’s backyard. Remembering and thinking about the incident that had happened to her in the bathroom between the ghost and her.

“Could there be a ghost?” Tu Quyen asks herself.

Suddenly on the computer screen a page pop up with Dalena’s face on it which causes Tu Quyen to jerk in shock. To her dismay it was only her who presses the restore button to the page.

Looking and observing the picture of the blond bombshell Tu Quyen speak the clue given from the ghost under her breath, “Thing doesn’t seem what it is because it’s takes two. Revenge me.”

“Why would she tell me that?” Tu Quyen scratches her head.

Tu Quyen looks up and sees Andy Quach at the door hesitating to knock on the door, “You can come in.”

Andy Quach opens and walks into the room a shy smile, “Good morning madam.”

“Please take a seat.” Tu Quyen welcomes.

Andy Quach hands Tu Quyen a file, “Chief Tuan Ngoc told me to give this to you.”

Tu Quyen takes the file and looks at it, “Thank you. You can leave now.”

Andy Quach stood up from his chair and walks slowly toward the door still hesitating to leave or stay.

“If you have something to tell me then just say it.” Tu Quyen says while covering her face with the file.

“It’s nothing.”

“Then please leave my office.” Tu Quyen says coldly.

Andy Quach walks out of the room leaving Tu Quyen crying behind the files. Tu Quyen puts down the files and sees Andy Quach still standing there at the door looking at her with pains in his eyes.

Tu Quyen wipes the tears away from her eyes and walks toward the door. Andy Quach reaches hand under to opens the door when he realizes Tu Quyen had just locked it. Tu Quyen reaches up and pulls down the black blinds covering Andy Quach from looking at her, “It’s over!” After she covered the blinds; Tu Quyen falls down onto the floor with her back to the door crying leaving Andy Quach on the other side in pain.

Cat Tien smile devilishly with satisfaction as she stand from a far distance.

episode 017 – a clue

2007-07-14T13:38:00.000-05:00

[Home]

The room was dark and quiet with sounds of cricket chirping from the window. The door of the window had been opened letting in the weary wind – floating the curtain lifelessly in the air. Sound of cats meowing and dogs howling in the night wakes Tu Quyen from her sleep. Tu Quyen sits up and scratches the back of her hair, “I shouldn’t have drunk so much water.”
Tu Quyen uncovers her body from the blanket and makes her way to the door. Once she opened the door she stares straight into the mirror across the room where she can see a blonde lady in a white suit. Tu Quyen rubs her eyes and look behind her, but nothing was there. She continues walking slowly toward the bathroom thinking, “It’s just my imagination.”

Once Tu Quyen was in the bathroom she heard footstep walking heavily toward the bathroom in fear she locks the door. Tu Quyen turns on the water and splashes at her face saying to herself, “There’s no such thing as ghost.” Suddenly the light in the bathroom turns off when Tu Quyen had her face in the water. When she lifts her head out of the water she sees in the mirror that the same blond lady in the white suite was behind her. Tu Quyen swallows and in fear but remains still and calm, “Just my imagination.”

The lady looks up and stare Tu Quyen eye in eye. Tu Quyen could she that her face was all mess up with scratches and was bleeding tremendously. Tu Quyen tries to look away, but couldn’t like she was frozen in time when she stare into the ghost’s gloomy and sad eyes.

The ghost moves closer and closer toward Tu Quyen, who gasps for air and closes her eye. The ghost put its hand around Tu Quyen’s waist and pulls itself closer until their head meet. Tu Quyen could feel the ghost’s head touching her and the blood hitting her skin when it drop down. “Thing doesn’t seem what it is because it’s takes two. Revenge me.” The ghost whispers into Tu Quyen’s ears.

Tu Quyen slowly opens her eye hoping for the ghost to be gone and indeed the only person she sees in the mirror was herself. She then turns on the light of the bathroom and splashes water onto her face again. Tu Quyen arises from the water and look at her shoulder where she sees no blood that she had felt when the ghost was above her. “Just my imagination…!” Tu Quyen shakes her head.

Tu Quyen walks slowly back to her room still thinking about the incident. She stands in the front of her room with her back on the mirror. Tu Quyen turns quickly around to look if she can spot the blond ghost in the mirror, but she sees nothing. Tu Quyen takes a deep breath and walks to her bed. She then stops when she realizes that the covers look bigger and fuller like someone was in her bed. Tu Quyen shakes her head, “No! This is not happening there’s no such thing as ghost.”

Tu Quyen was about to run out of her room when she hears giggles from the bed. She then turns around with a grin on her face, “You are so dead.” Tu Quyen walks to the side of her bed and grab the nearest pillow to her. Tu Quyen swings the pillow back and slams it onto the bump of the bed. She continues hitting, but stops when she sees nothing was moving. Pulling the covers slowly off the body she sees a blond head and screams at the top of her lung. A hand reaches out from the covers and grabs Tu Quyen’s hand tightly pulling her inside the covers. Still screaming at the top of her lung Tu Quyen wakes up everyone in the house.

Bao Han; with a bright white wrinkles remover mask on and Nhu Loan; with curls in her puff up hair rush hurriedly into the room in shock at the loud scream.

“What is going on?” Bao Han turns on the light.

Nhu Loan holding a bat, “Are there robbers?”

Bao Han walks over and lifts the covers off the bed where they see Minh Tuyet in a white suit with a blond wig on still holding onto Tu Quyen; who still was screaming and closing her eyes.

Nhu Loan tabs Tu Quyen on the shoulder, “Honey opens your eyes.”

Tu Quyen opens her eyes just to see Minh Tuyet in the blond wig laughing hysterically on the bed, “That’s not funny.”

“I thought you don’t believe in ghosts.” Minh Tuyet makes a scary face.

“I was just playing around with you. How did you do that in the bathroom?” Tu Quyen puts her hand on her hip.

Minh Tuyet in confuse, “What are you talking about? I only open the window so the wind can blow in, look straight into the mirror to make you scare and made the loud foot step when you were in the bathroom.”

“No! The woman and the blood….” Tu Quyen stutters.

Nhu Loan wipes the tears off of Tu Quyen’s cheeks, “You must have been so scare to even cry.”

“Check if she peed in her pants too.” Bao Han points at Tu Quyen.

Tu Quyen picks up the pillow that she had drop onto the floor and starts hitting Minh Tuyet again who scream and laughs with joy. Seeing the fun and excitement Nhu Loan and Bao Han joins the fun which turns into a large pillow fight. A body in a white suit floats ghastly past the opened door across the hallway.

[Coffee Shop]

Bao Han had left early in the morning to go meet up with Trinh Hoi for some coffee at Bang Tam’s Coffee Shop. Bao Han walks into the coffee shop where she was greet by Bang Kieu.

“You’re early today. Where’s Minh Tuyet? She should be here by now.” Bang Kieu asks.

“She’s still asleep. I’m here to meet somebody. There he is.” Bao Han points at Trinh Hoi who is sitting alone in the corner reading a newspaper and drinking coffee.

Bang Kieu walks Bao Han over to Trinh Hoi and help her sit down, “What would you like to drink?”

“One cup of hot coffee…” Bao Han orders.

“You’re late today.” Trinh Hoi talks while reading the newspaper.

“I’m sorry just that the girls and I…”

Trinh Hoi bust out laughing, “You don’t have to explain to me. I was just kidding around with you.”

Bao Han smile uneasily, “I thought you were really mad.”

“You think of me as a mean boss?”

“Your wife is.” Bao Han whispers under her voice.

“What was that?” Trinh Hoi questions.

“Nothing…!” Bao Han says quickly.

Trinh Hoi looks at Bao Han, “Now we are here I want to hear why you were in the boys’ bathroom.”

Bao Han starts to blush, “I ran into the wrong bathroom because my eyes were blurry.”

“Either you didn’t have your contact on or you were crying. Which of the two…?”

“Sands blew into my eyes.” Bao Han lies.

Trinh Hoi makes a disbelieve face, “Your eyes were bright red yesterday. You were crying. Don’t lie!”

“I was but who wouldn’t in that situation.”

“You were watching Korean drama at work?” Trinh Hoi jokes.

“No! I spend my whole July 4th working on those designs for the company, but the next morning when I woke up it wasn’t there…”

“Where were the designs?” Trinh Hoi asks.

Bao Han scoffs, “Calvin Hiep had the designs. Can you believe it he stole my designs and says they were his?”

“Now I see why you were so crazy that you even went into the boys’ bathroom.” Trinh Hoi touches his chin.

“Don’t tell Mrs. Duyen that I told you this because I don’t want any drama in the office.” Bao Han looks at her hand.

Bang Kieu looks closely at Bao Han and Trinh Hoi when he thought Trinh Hoi was leaning over to kiss Bao Han. However, Trinh Hoi was only leaning over to lift up Bao Han’s face to comforts her.

“I believe you.” Trinh Hoi smile.

“But Mrs. Duyen doesn’t.”

Trinh Hoi grin widely, “I know a way to make this all clear again.”

“How…?” Bao Han is anxious to know.

“You’ll see during work after the weekend.”

Trinh Hoi and Bao Han continue to chat and drink coffee the entire morning with Bang Kieu wondering if this is Bao Han’s new love.

Henry Chuc - man searching for wife

[Coffee Shop]

The coffee shop was still busy from the day of the muddy Tu Quyen incident. Bang Kieu stands behind the counter taking money and making coffee while Minh Tuyet runs around the coffee shop as a waitress and janitor.

After busy hours was the only time for both of them to rest and eat lunch as a couple. However, today they had Tu Quyen to help out and eat as a trio.

“You owe me big time.” Tu Quyen mumbles with rice in her mouth.

Bang Kieu smile, “If it wasn’t for you we wouldn’t make such a big profit.”

“If it wasn’t for you we wouldn’t work like slaves.” Minh Tuyet whispers under her breath as she rolls her eyes.

The three continues to eat their to-go rice box with two piece of porch chop when a customer in a hat walk in the shop – sitting himself in the corner the customer kept his hat on.

Tu Quyen whispers to Minh Tuyet, “He looks suspicious.”

“Usually there are no customers during these hours.” Minh Tuyet whispers back.

“Could this be another shooting incident?” Tu Quyen’s eyes bulges.

“Don’t be silly.” Bang Kieu walks over to the isolated customers and asks, “What would you want for today?”

The customer continues to hide his face under his hat, “Just a cup of coffee.”

“It’ll be out in a minute. Can you please take off your hat? It’s the request of the owner.”

The customer hesitated for a minute, but gives in by taking off the hat and under the hat was Henry Chuc, the bald man searching for his wife on the night of Independence Day.

“It’s you!” Bang Kieu is surprise.

“You know him?” Tu Quyen asks.

Minh Tuyet answers, “Yeah his name is Henry Chuc and he’s here trying to find his wife, the blonde lady from the other day who got our shop so famous.”

Minh Tuyet and Tu Quyen walk over to the table where Henry and Bang Kieu were talking.

“Nice to see you here again, but what’s with the hat?” Minh Tuyet greets.

“Sorry for not saying hi, but I just wanted to be alone.”

“It’s ok. Have you found your wife yet?” Bang Kieu asks.

Henry frowns, “No not yet. I know that she loves this shop that’s why I’m here to see if she would return.”

“I can help you find her! I’m a police.” Tu Quyen interrupts.

“This is my friend, Tu Quyen.” Minh Tuyet introduces.

“Thank you, but I don’t want the police involve into this.” Henry thanks.

Tu Quyen smile, “It’s no big deal. We are police and it’s our duty to help citizens.”

“Then I thank you!” Henry shakes Tu Quyen hand.

[Wisteria High School, Cooking Class]

Van Quynh, Angela Tram Anh and Huynh Gia Tuan walk into the class with their aprons and goggles on. They all walk toward the back of the room and stands behind a class oven.

“We look so stupid.” Van Quynh says in disgust.

Angela smile, “I think we look like chemists.”

“Professional one….” Huynh Gia Tuan adds.

“You two are conceited.”

“It’s not our problem if we look so good all the time.” Angela and Huynh Gia Tuan laughs.

Van Quynh rolls her eyes, “Please stop dreaming.”

The class began to get fill up with other students wearing the same thing. The instructor, Huong Lan, walks into the room with a tall kitchen hat.

Van Quynh’s eyes bulges in surprise, “It’s her! I didn’t know she’s the teacher.”

“She’s been here all year long.” Huynh Gia Tuan says.

“Why didn’t you tell me? I wouldn’t have taken the class.”

Angela laughs, “Why would we know you don’t like her?”

Van Quynh hides under the table, “I’m going to die!”

“You three from the back come to the front.” Huong Lan instructs.

“DAMN!” Van Quynh screams under her breath.

Angela and Huynh Gia tuan walk to the front of the class and stand leaving Van Quynh under the table.

“You under the table come to the front of the class.”

Van Quynh gasps a deep breath and crawl out from under the table. She then walks slowly to the front with her head down so Huong Lan wouldn’t see her face.

“Everyone will get their chance to pick where you sit except for you three.” Huong Lan points at the three standing embarrass at the front of the class.

Everyone in the class mover their stuff to where they wanted to sit leaving three spot in the room left. One spot was in the back of the room where a girl, Huong Giang, with glasses and braces sits alone.

Huynh Gia Tuan whisper to Angela Tram Anh, “Who want to sit with a nerd?”

The second spot sat next to a guy, Adam Ho, in raggedy clothes and messy hair.

“Peoples say he picks his nose and stinks!” Angela makes a disgusting face.

Van Quynh looks up for the first time and in the middle of the middle row sit alone a handsome dude, Duong Trieu Vu. Their eyes meet when he looks up at her, she speedily looks down again to avoid eye contact.

“There are three spaces left. Huynh Gia Tuan I want you to sit next to Adam.”

Huynh Gia Tuan slowly drags his book bag to the seat, “I’m going to need a lot of clone.”

Huong Lan continues “Van Quynh sits with Duong…” Van Quynh smirks under her face. “…Huong Giang meaning Angela sits next to Duong Trieu Vu.”

Van Quynh jaw drops as she walks over to the back of the room, “She hates me.”

Huong Giang pushes her glasses up to her face, “Hi! I’m Huong Giang. I’m so glad to sit next to you.”

“Hi! I’m Van Quynh.” Van Quynh introduces herself in a low and unenthusiastic way.

“I don’t have many friends… I mean I don’t have any friend. Would you be my best friend?” Huong Giang smile showing her braces.

“Sure I guess.” Van Quynh put her head on the table looking at the back of Duong Trieu Vu’s head.

[Home]

“Today was hell.” Minh Tuyet falls onto the sofa.

Tu Quyen turns on the family computer, “Have you show Bang Tam the improvement and stats of the shop?”

“I’ve been so busy don’t even have time to go give her a visit.”

“Why it is taking her so long? Andy… Andy has already got out twice!”

“The doctor says it’ll take her longer to heal because of where the bullet hit.” Minh Tuyet explains.

Tu Quyen signal for Minh Tuyet to come over to the family computer, “What her name?”

“Whose name…?” Minh Tuyet walks over.

“The bald guy from the coffee shop today...”

“Dalena why…?”

Tu Quyen puts her police code and password into the police database. After it signs in she types in Dalena. The computer pops up a screen with a list of names.

“What is her last name?”

“If Henry’s last name is Chuc then maybe so is she.”

When Tu Quyen types in Dalena Chuc a picture of a blonde beauty; the same as the woman from the day of the Tu Quyen mud incident.

“That’s her!” Minh Tuyet jumps in excitement. “Do you know where she lives?”

“In hell or heaven depend on her good deeds.”

“What?” Minh Tuyet is shock.

Tu Quyen points at the screen, “She’s dead!”

“But we just saw her last week still healthy and strong.”

Tu Quyen smacks Minh Tuyet in the head, “She could die from an accident…”

“Ouch!” Minh Tuyet rubs her head. “Maybe she was in a car accident…”

“No it says here she was murder 3 months ago.” Tu Quyen covers her mouth.

“Then who was the person at our coffee shop?”

“Wait this is the same blonde in Eddie’s backyard.” Tu Quyen points at the screen.

Minh Tuyet gasps, “We speaks and touch a ghost!”

Tu Quyen smack Minh Tuyet in the head again, “Don’t be stupid! There’s no such thing as ghosts.”

Minh Tuyet pushes Tu Quyen in the arm, “Stop hitting me.”

“This is confusing and complicated. How could she be dead and then talking to us?” Tu Quyen scratches her forehead.

“BOO!” Minh Tuyet screams from behind making Tu Quyen jumps.

Minh Tuyet falls onto the sofa laughing hysterically, “And you say you don’t believe in ghosts.”

“I don’t but I never said I wasn’t scare.” Tu Quyen jumps onto Minh Tuyet tickling her.

[TH & KD Design Company]

[Dream]

Bao Han in an ancient costume runs toward a man with his back turn away from her, “Lu Bu at last I can see you.”

The mysterious men turn slowly around…

[End of dream]

Bao Han wakes up from a push on the shoulder; she had fallen asleep at her desk after finishing all her work from last night. Rubbing and yawning Bao Han angrily look up to cuss at the person that had just ruin her perfect dream, “How dare you wake me up…?” She then stops cussing when she sees the person standing above her was her boss, Ky Duyen.

“What did you say?” Ky Duyen folds her arm.

“Good morning Mrs. Duyen.” Bao Han smile sweetly.

“Cut the crap! Where are the designs I ask you to finish yesterday?” Ky Duyen sticks out her hand.

“Right here…!” Bao Han searches her desk for the designs. “I left it right here…”

Ky Duyen becomes impatient, “I don’t have all day.”

“I know I did it! I spend my whole 4th of July to do it.” Bao Han continues to search her desk.

Ky Duyen walks off, “I knew I shouldn’t have give you such a big task.”

“Mrs. Duyen I did it. I swear!”

“Shut it! Pack your bag and leave if you can’t find the designs.”

“Calm down your honor. I have the design right here.” Calvin Hiep walks into the office.

Bao Han sighs, “Oh thank you!”

Ky Duyen takes the package full of design, “Very nice Bao...”

“No Calvin Hiep. I did these designs.” Calvin Hiep interrupts.

Bao Han eyes bulges in shock, “What…?”

“I came in yesterday on Independence Day to check up on Bao Han, but she was no where to be found and I knew that you need these designs therefore I took it home to finish it.” Calvin Hiep explains.

“What…?” Bao Han is still shock.

“Everyone needs to be more like Calvin and less of her.” Ky Duyen points at Bao Han.

Bao Han cries, “I stayed up here all day yesterday to finish this.”

“Then why does Calvin have it?”

“I swear that is mine.” Bao Han swear as she points to the package of designs.

“You are lucky that Calvin did these designs for you or you would have been fire.” Ky Duyen into her office, “Calvin comes in.”

“You snooze! You lose.” Calvin whispers as he passes Bao Han.

Bao Han runs into the bathroom crying, she screams and cry at the sink. Washing her pale and skinny face, Bao Han continues to cry.

“Stop crying Bao Han.” Bao Han splashes water on her face. “That’s what you get for sleeping during work.”

Bao Han sees the stall door opens slowly on bathroom mirror and a man walks out of the stall is one of many male designer, Tuong Khue.

Seeing each other in the bathroom both Bao Han and Tuong Khue screams at the top of their lung.

“Why are you in the lady bathroom?” Bao Han screams.

“Lady Bathroom? This is the men’s room.”

“I know what I saw and it was a lady in dress.”

“Look around it has male potty.”

Bao Han looks around and realizes she was in the wrong bathroom – she runs toward the door with full speed pushing the door, but it swing backward hitting her in the face.

“Ouch!” Bao Han and another voice scream at the same time.

Bao Han stand up and open the door slower this time – the moment she got outside she starts to run again, but because of the coffee the man had drop onto the floor made it slippery. Bao Han fell backward onto two pair of hands. Looking up she sees her other boss, Trinh Hoi, catching her.

Trinh Hoi lifts Bao Han up on her feet, “Are you ok?”

“Thank you!” Bao Han fixes her clothes and hair.

“Why were you in there?” Trinh Hoi questions as she points into the men’s bathroom.

“Long story…” Bao Han is embarrassed.

Trinh Hoi laughs, “I have the time.”

“Can I get you another cup of coffee?”

“It’s alright I have a meeting to go to.” Trinh Hoi points to his office.

“Didn’t you say you had the time to listen to my story?”

“I do after the meeting. Do you want to go out for some coffee?”

“Sure and I can pay back for your coffee.” Bao Han screams with joy.

Trinh Hoi laughs, “And I can teach you the different between a male and female stick person.”

“That’s not funny.”

“Well I’ll see you tomorrow morning.”

“Bye.” Bao Han waves.

Bao Han sits back down on the chair of her desk with a big smile on her face, but was turns upside down when she heard Ky Duyen screaming.

Suddenly it hit her that Trinh Hoi was already marry to the person she dislike the most. Bao Han frowns and sighs, “Bye-bye to my new love. I guess back to day dreaming”

[Home]

Tu Quyen wakes up with Minh Tuyet and Nhu Loan in her face.

“How was the date? Who is he? Did you kiss? Where’d you go…?” Nhu Loan and Minh Tuyet ask in a flash.

Tu Quyen stretches her arms and feet, “Give me a minute.”

“What is his name?” Nhu Loan wraps her arm around Tu Quyen’s neck.

Minh Tuyet raises her eyebrow, “Does he have lots of money?”

Tu Quyen walks slowly to the bathroom with Nhu Loan and Minh Tuyet trailing along asking questions.

Tu Quyen brushes her teeth and washes her face still with Nhu Loan and Minh Tuyet asking and screaming questions into her ears.

After finishing those she turns around facing Nhu Loan and Minh Tuyet and in a dark and low voice she began to talk, “He’s a billionaire, but I didn’t like him so I shot him.”

“Stop kidding around.” Minh Tuyet pushes Tu Quyen softly.

“Ok! Ok! Give me a second to remember all the romantic moments.”

Tu Quyen starts to tell them what happened last night as they walk to the kitchen. The exact moment they reaches the kitchen was the same moment Tu Quyen finish her story.

“How could you run off on a date?” Nhu Loan screams.

Tu Quyen shudders, “I have to! If he leaves me for that then he’s not the right guy for me.”

“You go girl!” Minh Tuyet gives Tu Quyen a high five.

“You two are crazy.” Nhu Loan rolls her eyes.

Minh Tuyet laughs, “And we’re the one with boyfriends.”

“I’m guessing guys these days love crazy ladies.”

“I’m hungry.” Tu Quyen’s stomachs growls.

Minh Tuyet rubs her belly, “You usually make breakfast.”

“I was on a date yesterday.”

“Then what do we eat? We are going to starve to death.” Nhu Loan put her head on the kitchen table.

“No need to worry.” Van Quynh walks in from the back door.

“No need to worry? We’re going to die of hunger.” Nhu Loan cries.

Van Quynh place down a dish with fried eggs, “I knew Tu Quyen would not be cooking today so I just wanted to try out something new.”

Nhu Loan, Minh Tuyet and Tu Quyen swallow their spits and admire the delicious looking fried eggs.

“Who taught you to cook?” Minh Tuyet questions.

“That looks delicious.” Nhu Loan drools.

Tu Quyen takes a piece with her hand, “It taste even better then mine.”

“Good. Thank You!” Van Quynh picks up the dish.

“Where are you going?” Nhu Loan cries.

“This is not for you guys.”

“Then for whom?” Minh Tuyet stands up.

Van Quynh smiles shyly, “Someone secret.”

“Our little brat is growing up.” Tu Quyen smile.

Nhu Loan and Tu Quyen forces Van Quynh to sit down and held her down to the chair.

“Who will be the person eating this plate?” Minh Tuyet slams her hand on the table like she was the police and Van Quynh – the bad guy.

“Nhu Loan…!”

“What…?” Minh Tuyet is confused.

Everyone looks at Nhu Loan who had a mouth full of eggs in her mouth, “What? I’m hungry.”

“For real who is he?” Minh Tuyet says calmly.

“He’s this new guy that had just recently moved into our school and he is so handsome.” Van Quynh smile dreamingly.

“I have never seen her like this.” Tu Quyen whispers at Minh Tuyet.

“Why are you making him fried egg though?” Nhu Loan questions.

Van Quynh says sweetly, “He’s in my cooking class and I want to be the top so he can notice me.”

“You’re in cooking class?” Minh Tuyet is shock.

Tu Quyen and Nhu Loan laugh under their breath, “And you say you’re a great sister.”

“I have to go outside and continue to make better food.”

Nhu Loan’s eyes bulges in excitement, “I’ll be glad to be your taster.”

“Just eat this plate and I’ll make some more.” Van Quynh walks outside.

Minh Tuyet takes the plate away from Nhu Loan, “Give me that!”

“I was eating that.” Nhu Loan screams.

Tu Quyen smile at Minh Tuyet, “Are you jealous of this new guy?”

“No! Why should I?”

Nhu Loan and Tu Quyen stand up and dance around, “Minh Tuyet is jealous.”

“It’s just that mean she’ll be spending more time with that guy and our relationship will further apart even more then it already is.” Minh Tuyet frowns.

Tu Quyen and Nhu Loan comforts, “You have us to talk with.”

“Who want to talk to you guys?” Minh Tuyet kids.

Behind the unclose door to the backyard stand Van Quynh in tears at what her bigger sister had say, “I’ll always love you big sister.”

Bao Han sits in the company alone furious and frantic at the unfairness. Ky Duyen had force Bao Han to go to work on July forth to finish the last minute touches on the company designs for a presentation.

“I hate this job so much. If I don’t have a passion for fashion, I’d quit this already.” Bao Han scream with both her hand in the sky.

Suddenly she remembers about the chat she had with the online stranger days ago. Bao Han quickly turns on the computer and sign onto AIM with eager and happiness, but to her dismay the stranger was not online. Once again Bao Han sits alone at her desk day dreaming, “Wonder if he’ll be my knight and shining armor?” Bao Han sighs.

[Coffee Shop]

After the Tu Quyen’s mud incident the coffee shop was fill with customers. From the earliest of the morning there was already a line of customers waiting for some sweet morning coffee and sweet donuts.

“Here is your donut and coffee.” Minh Tuyet places the food down.

“I didn’t order this.”

“Where are my orders?” Another customer yells from across the room.

Minh Tuyet smile, “Sorry about that.”

Minh Tuyet walks hurriedly over to the counter, “We need more peoples to help us out.”

“I know I don’t even know if a customer pay or not.” Bang Kieu agree.

“I know they right peoples for this job.” Minh Tuyet smile.

Hours later Nhu Loan and Van Quynh enter the store with frowns on their faces. They walk toward the counter, “We’re here your majesty.”

“Where are the others?” Minh Tuyet questions.

“Bao Han’s working and Tu Quyen’s is getting ready for a date.” Nhu Loan reports.

“Who works on Independent day?” Minh Tuyet rolls her eyes.

“What are you doing big sister?” Van Quynh mocks.

Minh Tuyet says quietly, “Well… Working, but this is different. Wait did you say Tu Quyen is getting ready for a date?”

“Yeah she didn’t even tell us.”

“Here take these and start working.” Minh Tuyet hands Nhu Loan and Van Quynh trays.

“This is going to be a long day.” Nhu Loan and Van Quynh walk off.

[Outside of Mystic Garden Restaurant]

In a deep V cut light pink with silver pieces dress Tu Quyen walks toward the outside restaurant where she and Luong Tung Quang will have their first debut date.

At the moment Tu Quyen spot Luong Tung Quang sitting alone at a table near a pond with bright yellow and white lilies growing out of it. Lights hang from above the red covered table. In the middle of the table are three lighted white candles.

“This looks so romantic.” Tu Quyen smile.

Luong Tung Quang stands up from his seat as soon as he sees Tu Quyen. He then hands her a pile of bright red rose, “I wrap it up this time so you won’t get hurt.” Luong Tung Quang winks as he helps Tu Quyen sit down.

“It’s beautiful here. You don’t have to take me to somewhere so romantic.”

“I want to be as romantic as possible to see…”

“To see what…?” Tu Quyen questions.

Luong Tung Quang stutter, “I mean so that I would make a good first impression.”

“You already did yesterday at the park.”

“May I take your orders?” The owner of the restaurant, My Linh, asks.

“I would like to have beef steak and wine please.” Luong Tung Quang closes his menu.

“Same.” Tu Quyen hand My Linh the menu.

“Then what do you want for desserts?” My Linh hands back the menu.

Tu Quyen looks at Luong Tung Quang and smile, “Cheesecake?”

“Two please.” Luong Tung Quang makes his hand into the peace sign.

“It will be out in no time now.”
“That was quite embarrassing.” Tu Quyen laughs.

Luong Tung Quang smile, “It’s my first time taking someone to a place so high class and romantic. If they didn’t make…”

“They didn’t make you. Whose they…?” Tu Quyen is anxious.

“My friend… buddies… They say taking a girl out here is very romantic.” Luong Tung Quang stutters.

Tu Quyen laughs, “Why are you so nervous?”

“I’m not nervous… Well any guy would be if they are sitting here with the prettiest girl in the world.”

Tu Quyen screams under her breath, “Oh my god!”

[Coffee Shop]

Bang Kieu had gone into the back to clean up and lock the back door while Minh Tuyet sweeps the floor before closing the store. Nhu Loan and Van Quynh fall down onto a chair exhausted at the full day of walking and taking orders.

“This is child labor.” Van Quynh cries.

“Either do the work or live in the street.” Minh Tuyet grins.

“We deserve some money.” Nhu Loan complains.

Minh Tuyet shudder, “But you don’t work here.”

Van Quynh gasps, “We did work here tomorrow.”

“Next time ok?”

“We want the money now.” Nhu Loan runs toward the cash register.

Minh Tuyet slams the broom on the register – almost hitting Nhu Loan’s hands, “You want that? You must go through me first.”

Van Quynh grabs Minh Tuyet from behind, “I got her! Get the money!”

Minh Tuyet screams and struggles to get out from Van Quynh’s strong grip. Nhu Loan sticks out her tongue as she takes the money slowly. Suddenly a young male with a bald head, Henry Chuc, walks into the store. Seeing Minh Tuyet struggles he ran forward to help her out.

“Are they robbers?” Henry uses his hand to protect Minh Tuyet.

“I have a gun don’t move!” Van Quynh says in a serious tone.

At that same time Bang Kieu enters the room – seeing Minh Tuyet behind a stranger back and Van Quynh tense voice Bang Kieu was scare.

Minh Tuyet lowers Henry’s arm down as she walks toward Bang Kieu, “Stop kidding around. This is my boyfriend, Bang Kieu, my sister, Van Quynh, and my friend, Nhu Loan, we’re just fooling around.”

“What’s going on?” Bang Kieu is confused.

“I’ll explain later.”

Henry’s eyes bulges, “That’s a weird way to kid around. Any who is this place still open?”

“Yes! This is quite late to still be eating donut and drink coffee.” Minh Tuyet is surprise.

“It is the forth of July.”

“You’re lucky we were just about to close.” Nhu Loan smile.

“What would you like to eat or drink?” Bang Kieu asks.

Henry scratches his bald shiny head, “I don’t want any foods…”

“Then why are you here?” Van Quynh questions.

“I’m here in search for my wife.”

“Your wife… Why here?” Minh Tuyet is anxious.

“I flew all the way in from Washington because one of my family members saw her here at the shop yesterday.”

Bang Kieu apologizes, “We’re sorry but we have tons of customer in the last two days.”

“Her name is Dalena, she has beautiful blond hair.” Henry describes.

“Is she the one that made the big scene?” Van Quynh whispers to Nhu Loan.

“Maybe I don’t know.”

“Do you have a picture of her?” Minh Tuyet asks.

Henry takes out his wallet which opens to a beautiful picture of a blond bombshell in a blue tank top sitting in front of a lake.

“Yes she has been here.” Minh Tuyet answers quickly.

“Where is she now?”

“We don’t really know where she is because she only came for some coffee.” Bang Kieu answers.

Henry slams at the table which made every startle, “I need to find her.”

“You must be really in love with her.” Nhu Loan admires.

“Yes I do and I must find her before anyone else does.” Henry takes off leaving everyone in the shop astonish.

[Outside of Mystic Garden Restaurant]

After Luong Tung Quang and Tu Quyen finish their tasty meal, delicious dessert and fine wine they decided to go on a stroll along the pond with the beautiful lilies. Hand in hand they walk around the pond. They then both stop in their track and face each other.

“You look absolutely stunning tonight.” Luong Tung Quang leans forward to kiss Tu Quyen.

Their lips were about to touch when Tu Quyen sees a mysterious guy in a black mask snatching a purse from an old woman. Suddenly her heels break under her feet which cause Luong Tung Quang to kiss her forehead.

Tu Quyen pushes Luong Tung Quang aside, takes off her heels and ran after the robber in her light pink dress – Luong Tung Quang follow from behind.

The robber pushes a man off a yellow motorcycle and drove away. Tu Quyen thought there was no chance for her to follow the robber because she was on feet. However, she sees him turn the corner. Tu Quyen immediately takes a short cut through the dark and scary alley – still with Luong Tung Quang following from behind.

The moment she reaches the other side of the alley she didn’t sight any person on a motorcycle. Tu Quyen was furious at herself for what had just happen and slam her hand at the light pole. Then at that moment she hears the sound of a motorcycle and as she looks up she sees the same guy in a mask on the yellow motorcycle turning into the street.

Tu Quyen jumps up happily with a huge smile on her face. “Now how do I get a robber off a motorcycle?” Tu Quyen grins evilly at a thick stick on the middle of the street.

The motorcycle came straight forward with full speed into the swinging stick swings by Tu Quyen. The robber flew backward onto the ground heavily while the stolen motorcycle slid forward out of control.

Tu Quyen walks and puts her left foot over the robber, “Don’t mess with barefoot Madam Quyen.”

After bending over and getting the purse Tu Quyen turns around where she sees a bunch of peoples applauding and cheering at her. The woman that got her purse stolen thanks and kisses Tu Quyen. Among the audience stands Luong Tung Quang clapping his hand and smiling with satisfaction.

Tu Quyen lifts her head with pride when she sees something shooting into the sky – the sparks blast into thousands of other lights. She then remembers it was forth of July. Fireworks blew up in many different colors and shape in the black and silent sky. Luong Tung Quang walks over and takes Tu Quyen’s hand. Hand in hand they walk together once again, but this time gazing at the multi color fireworks.

[Coffee Shop]

The moment Bang Kieu, Minh Tuyet, Nhu Loan, and Van Quynh heard the fireworks they hurriedly outside to enjoy the view. They had decided to sit and enjoy the beautiful arrangement.

“Did he just swallow her face?” Van Quynh says in a disgusted face at Minh Tuyet and Bang Kieu kissing.

Nhu Loan pushes Van Quynh lightly, “You know you wish you have someone by your side enjoying this romantic night with.”

Minh Tuyet rests her head on Bang Kieu’s shoulder, “I wish time would freeze this moment forever.”

[TH & KD Design Company]

Bao Han had pulled up the blind of the window to enjoy the late night fireworks. Sitting alone in the silent and dark office Bao Han sigh with sadness, “Happy forth of July lonely Bao Han.”

--------------------------------------------------

I wish everyone to have a great 4th of July. Spend it with family and friend. Enjoy the fireworks like these Modern Beauties characters. If you are like Bao Han sitting alone in your office remember to look out side at night to enjoy the view – hope you are not that unlucky. Thank You are enjoying the story and happy Independence Day everyone!

Episode 013 – a good day after all

2007-06-30T09:24:00.000-05:00

Guest Star:
Dalena - Customer

[Coffee Shop]

That morning Minh Tuyet and Bang Kieu opened the shop which was greeted with no customers. The only customer that enter the shop was an old lady that mistaken the shop for another shop. After hours of sitting around waiting Minh Tuyet began to get frustrated with the shop and the others ladies.

“Where is everyone?” Minh Tuyet paces back and forth.

“Just give them some time.” Bang Kieu comforts.

“I… We worked so hard cleaning this shop up and the day of the re-opening no one come to support.”

“You do remember what happened here the past weeks?”

“I do, but I work so hard…” Minh Tuyet frowns.

At that same moment Bao Han and Nhu Loan enters the shop with shopping bangs in both their hands.

“Did we go into the wrong shop?” Bao Han questions.

Nhu Loan places down the bags, “Where is everyone?”

“That’s what I want to know too.” Minh Tuyet folds her arm.

“We went shopping for you. Don’t get mad!” Bao Han picks up a pink medium size bag and hands it to Minh Tuyet.

Minh Tuyet digs her hand into the bag, “What did you get me?”

“Two brand new coffee cup.” Nhu Loan jumps in excitement.

“You do know I work at a coffee shop. There are hundred of cups here.”

“I told you she wouldn’t like it.” Bao Han whispers angrily at Nhu Loan.

“We know you work here, but these are special. Take it out and take a look.” Nhu Loan insists.

Minh Tuyet takes out the two coffee cups with one having a male bear and one with a female bear imprint on it. Both had pink hearts of all different shape floating endlessly in the sky.

“That is so sweet of you guys.” Minh Tuyet hugs the ladies.

“Is this one for me?” Bang Kieu picks up the one with the male bear.

“We don’t know ask your girlfriend.” Bao Han pushes Minh Tuyet toward Bang Kieu.

Before Minh Tuyet and Bang Kieu kisses the door of the shop spring open. “That’s why you have no customers.” Van Quynh teases as she enters with her two friends, Angela Tram Anh and Huynh Gia Tuan.

“We do have customers.” Minh Tuyet lies.

“Your friends don’t count.”

“What took you so long?” Minh Tuyet asks.

“I went to pick them up. This is two of my best friend at school, Angela and Huynh Gia Tuan.” Van Quynh introduces.

Everyone in the shop introduces each other and shakes hands. After they were finish Van Quynh and her friends sit down at one table while Nhu Loan and Bao Han sit at a different table. Bang Kieu and Minh Tuyet resume back behind the counter faking to make coffee so on-going customers would be interest.

“This is a big waste of time.” Nhu Loan leans on the table with the palm of her hand.

Bao Han yawns, “Tell me about it.”

“Where is Tu Quyen?”

“Hang over I bet. She drank so much last night.” Bao Han laughs.

At that same moment the door of the shop spring open widely and standing at the door was Tu Quyen covering in wet mud; her hair float backward slowly because of the cool breeze blown from inside the shop. Tu Quyen steps inside the shop – step by step she walks close to Minh Tuyet and Bang Kieu.

“STOP RIGHT THERE!” Minh Tuyet screams.

“What happen to you?” Nhu Loan stands up from her chair slowly.

“Don’t ask.” Tu Quyen points at Nhu Loan.

“You’re cover in wet mud.” Bao Han raises her eyebrow.

“No. I was splash with water and then fell into mud.” Tu Quyen corrects.

Van Quynh laughs, “Seem like someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning.”

“Shut up or I will shoot you.” Tu Quyen looks angrily at Van Quynh as she walks over and sits herself at Nhu Loan and Bao Han’s table.

“What happen to her?” Bang Kieu whispers at Minh Tuyet.

“She had a big fight with Andy.” Minh Tuyet whisper back. “She’s making our shop look even more pathetic then it already is.”

“You can’t just kick her out.”

“Watch me.” Minh Tuyet kisses Bang Kieu as she walks toward Tu Quyen. “Honey I appreciate you being here to support me, but you’re in a mess. You should go home and take a big bubble bath.”

“I want to be here for your big day.” Tu Quyen tries to wipe the mud of her face.

“I don’t think you’ll miss out on much.”

“You’re right this place is empty.”

Minh Tuyet tries to walk Tu Quyen out of the shop without touching her. At the front door Tu Quyen hugs Minh Tuyet making her red dress with white poky dots turn brown. Everyone outside of the shop stop to stare at the messy scene.

Minh Tuyet screams in disgust, “Why did you do that?”

“I forgot I was corer in mud.”

Inside of the coffee shop everyone stare with surprise and open jaws. Everyone was waiting for Minh Tuyet to blows up and scream at Tu Quyen with rage.

Minh Tuyet was about to go buzzard on Tu Quyen when a blonde hair bombshelled beauty, Dalena, steps forward, “I’ve never seen any thing so unique.”

“What…?” Both Minh Tuyet and Tu Quyen look at the beautiful woman.

“Usually I only see billboard or coffee cup as your entertainer to bring in customer, but this… is just phenomenal.” Dalena claps.

“I thought of this.” Minh Tuyet hugs Tu Quyen with pleasure not minding the mud.

Everyone in the shop eyes budges with amazement and astonish. Customer continues to enters the shop with sparks and smile in their eyes and on their faces. The shop was so busy that Minh Tuyet asks Nhu Loan, Bao Han, Van Quynh and her friends to help serve coffee.

“How did this happen?” Nhu Loan stirs the coffee.

“Less talk more stirring.” Minh Tuyet orders.

Bao Han makes an angry face, “It’s all Tu Quyen’s fault.”

“I thought you say this was going to be fun.” Angela gripes.

“I did too.” Van Quynh rolls her eyes.

“Keep working there’s a long line out there.” Bang Kieu rushes.

Dalena made her way to the counter, “That was such a bright idea. How did you think of it?”

“Uh… Well I thought that having a pile of mud would represent a new beginning because….” Minh Tuyet stutters.

“Mud…? I thought it was supposed to be coffee.” Dalena questions loudly which made the customers leans over to hear what Minh Tuyet had to say.

“Now this is the real entertainment.” Van Quynh elbows Angela and Huynh Gia Tuan.

“It does suppose to be coffee.” Minh Tuyet hits her head with her palm.

“But you just said mud.”

“I did… And yes it does mean both coffee and mud because this is a coffee shop.” Minh Tuyet laughs nervously. “The mud part is because this place has just recently been clean up and when a building is rebuilt or re discovery, it starts out as mud.”

Van Quynh, Bang Kieu, Nhu Loan, Bao Han, Angela, and Huynh Gia Tuan jaws were wide open because of what Minh Tuyet had just made up. However, the customers all began to applause at her statement about the mud and coffee. Minh Tuyet smile with bride as she bows at the loudly applauding audience.

[Xi Shi Park]

In dried up mud Tu Quyen walks hopelessly to a bench in the infamous Xi Shi Park. Tu Quyen place herself heavily down on the dark green bench where she sigh at her horrible day.

“Why am I having such a bad day?”

“Because you’re making it a bad day…” Reply from a male voice.

Tu Quyen turns her head around and at her eye sight stands Luong Tung Quang with a bright red rose in his hand.

“This is for you.” Luong Tung Quang hand Tu Quyen the rose.

“Thank you… Ouch.” Tu Quyen screams as she jerks her hand at the pain she receives from the needles on the rose stem and smacks herself in the face.

Luong Tung Quang laughs as he helps Tu Quyen, “Are you ok?”

“I’m covering in mud and just made a fool of myself in front of a guy that’s trying to give me a rose. What do you think?” Tu Quyen says in a sarcastic tone.

“You must have a time of your life.”

“You’re kidding me right?”

“Not everyone gets a chance to do or look the way you do today.”

“What do you mean? I look terrible.”

“You look absolutely beautiful even when you’re covered in mud.”

Tu Quyen’s cheeks began to turn bright red, “Thank you.”

“My name is Luong Tung Quang. What is your?” Luong Tung Quang introduces himself.

“Mine is Tu Quyen.”

“Do you remember me?” Luong Tung Quang seems amaze.

“Not really.”

“I was one of the hostile citizens in the coffee shop a few weeks ago.”

“The one that try to shoot, but ran out of ammunition.” Tu Quyen remembers.

Luong Tung Quang scratches his head, “Well I tried.”

“I was just kidding.”

“You were so brave and courageous.”

“You were yourself.” Tu Quyen smile.

“Well here is the prettiest rose for the prettiest woman here.” Luong Tung Quang hands Tu Quyen the rose.

Tu Quyen carefully holds the rose so she wouldn’t get hurt again, “Thank you! You’re so sweet.”

“Well I’m going to leave you alone now.” Luong Tung Quang walks backward slowly and nervously.

“Thanks for the rose again.” Tu Quyen swings the rose which causes it to break in half. Tu Quyen makes a shock face as she hide the rose behind her back.

Luong Tung Quang turn back to face Tu Quyen and gave a nervous smile, “I’ll be leaving now.”

Tu Quyen waves stiffly, “Ok I’ll see you around.”

“Would you like to go on a date with me? It’s ok if you’re already taken.” Luong Tung Quang asks quickly.

“Yes…”

“I knew it as beautiful as you are of course you’re taken.” Luong Tung Quang walks away.

“No… I mean I would love to go on a date.” Tu Quyen laughs.
Luong Tung Quang turns around with a big smile on his face, “Is tomorrow night ok? I’ll pick you up.”

“See you tomorrow.” Tu Quyen smile.

“One last thing… You’re sitting on wet paint this whole time.”

Tu Quyen rolls her eyes as she stand up. Dark green paint trail down the side of her back blending in with the mud that was already on her, “Great… Thank you.”

Luong Tung Quang walks off leaving Tu Quyen staring happily at her new date. Tu Quyen skips home with a huge smile and broken rose in her hand even if she was covered in mud and paint. “Today is a good day after all.” Tu Quyen closes the door of the house.

episode 012 – crying in the corner

2007-06-27T09:44:00.000-05:00

Guest Star(s):
Sy Dan - Doctor
Y Lan - Nurse

In the middle of the street lies an eighteenth wheeler and beside the humongous car were two other cars; Andy’s truck and a red Honda Civic. The paramedics took both Andy and the driver of the other car to the nearby hospital. Both victims seem unconscious and dead from the heavy collision.

[Hospital]

At the hospital Andy was taken into one room and the other victim was taken into another. The doctors manage to get Andy awake, but unfortunately the other victim stay in a deep coma. The news travels quickly to the others and Tu Quyen.

[Car]

In the blue mustang sits Tu Quyen in the passenger seat fearing for the worst and hoping for the better while Bao Han drives hurriedly but carefully. Nhu Loan sits in the back trying to call Minh Tuyet about the tragedy.

“It’s my entire fault. I should’ve broken up with him.” Tu Quyen is scare.

Bao Han keep her eye on the road, “It’s not your fault well kind of.”

“Why’d you break up with him?” Nhu Loan speaks up.

“He accuses me of cheating on him.”

“That doesn’t seem like Andy.” Bao Han looks over at Tu Quyen.

“Watch the road Bao Han!” Nhu Loan screams.

Tu Quyen frowns, “He heard me say I still love Huy Vu.”

“Seem like he’s the innocent one here.” Nhu Loan says.

“I saw him with this new co-worker.”

“He’s with his guy friend. You’re jealous of his friend?” Bao Han shakes her head.

“I don’t care about his guy friend, but it’s a new girl and she’s very pretty.”

Bao Han close her mouth, “I thought all police are guys.”

Tu Quyen looks over at Bao Han, “What do you mean by that I’m a guy?”

“No I didn’t mean that.”

“She’s still not picking up.” Nhu Loan closes her cell phone.

“Maybe she’s busy.”

Bao Han laughs, “She doesn’t have a job, I bet she’s just busy spending time with her new boyfriend.”

[Hospital]

When the ladies arrive at the hospital Tu Quyen accidentally scratch her elbows on the door trying to get out the car. She was so anxious and scare for Andy; she didn’t want to know that the last thing they talk about was breaking up. At that very moment Tu Quyen finally realize that she loves him and care for him dearly.

When the ladies reach Andy’s room – it was the same room Andy was in last week when he was injure. Andy was sitting up with a white fluffy pillow on his back. The doctor, Sy Dan, and the nurse, Y Lan, were doing a final checkup and examination.

“I’m sorry. Are you ok?” Tu Quyen runs over and hugs Andy.

Andy pushes Tu Quyen off softly, “I’m doing well.”

“What happen?”

“I wasn’t looking at the road.”

“I was so worry about you.”

“Sorry that I made you worry.”

Bao Han walks over with a bandage that she went to get from Nurse Y Lan, “You’re bleeding a lot Tu Quyen.”

Tu Quyen puts the bandage on the bleeding wound, “Thanks.”

“What happen?” Andy is concern.

“It’s not a big deal just a little scratch.” Tu Quyen lies.

Nhu Loan and Bao Han was about to exit the room when Cat Tien enters the room with a cup of coffee, she walks over to Andy’s bed and helps Andy drink the cup coffee. Tu Quyen looks at them with rage and anger.

“Who’s that?” Nhu Loan whispers to Tu Quyen.

“That’s the new chick.” Tu Quyen whisper back.

“She’s pretty.” Bao Han observe.

Tu Quyen pinches Bao Han on the arm, “Look at them being so close.”

“Be careful it’s still hot.” Cat Tien helps Andy.

In rage Tu Quyen walks over, grab the cup of coffee and throws it on the floor; splashing it all over the hospital’s floor.

“And you say there’s nothing going on between you two?” Tu Quyen screams. “You accuse me of cheating on you and here you are – sitting here letting another girl help you drink coffee.”

“Madame Quyen I think you’d misunderstood.” Cat Tien tries to explain.

“I don’t think I misunderstand anything.”

“I thought we’ve broken up?” Andy scoffs.

Tu Quyen pushes Cat Tien out of her way, “I was so stupid to believe that you still love me. Even to the point that I dash myself to this hospital to see you after hearing that you were in an accident. You know where I got this scratch?” Tu Quyen points to the wound on her arm. “It’s from getting out of the car too fast and why did I do that? Because I care and worry about you.”

“Then why don’t you trust me?” Andy coughs.

“How can I when you are here with another woman?” Tu Quyen began to cry.

“She was nearby the accident so she took me here.”

“And I’m to believe that?”

“Yes.”

“Then explain the coffee. Your hands are not broken are they?”

Andy was then silent.

“That explains everything.” Tu Quyen walks angrily out of the door with Bao Han and Nhu Loan trailing from behind.

Cat Tien walks over and rubs Andy on the shoulder, “I’m sorry I didn’t know you two…” Cat Tien was interrupts when Sy Dan and Y Lan re enters the room with a concern and worried face while holding a package of papers.

“The person you collide with is a young lady name Vy Nguyen and she’s in critical condition. We need to get her into an emergency room and do surgery; however, she neither has family nor relative. Because you’re the one that are paying for her stay, we need you to make a decision if she should go in or not.” Sy Dan explains.

“What are the chances that she’ll make it out alive.” Andy questions.

“A very high percentages if she goes in.”

Andy takes the package of paper from Sy Dan and began to sign the papers. Looking at the generous and responsible Andy, Cat Tien couldn’t resist but smile.

[Home]

Tu Quyen scrubs the tiles of the floor until the prints on the tiles began to fade away. She scrubs and cleans with tears heavily floating down her red blush cheeks. Bao Han, Nhu Loan, Minh Tuyet and Van Quynh try and try to convince Tu Quyen to stop, but it was no use. The only thing that they could do was to eat and trash the house for Tu Quyen to clean.

Minh Tuyet walks over and snatches the scrub out of Tu Quyen’s hand, “I’ll take that.”

“Give it back to me. I have to clean.”

“No I’m not giving it back to you.”

Tu Quyen jumps up and down like a baby, “I need to clean! I need to clean. I’m sad”

“Snap out of it!” Minh Tuyet slaps Tu Quyen across the face which made the other gasps. “Why are you like this? Where is the strong, powerful, and sexy Tu Quyen I know? The Tu Quyen I know wouldn’t fall over anything especially for a guy.”

Tu Quyen looks down at her feet.

“I know this is a big impact on you, but this is not the way to deal with grief. You know better then that!”

Tu Quyen began to cry harder as she continues to look down at her feet.

“Remember what you use to say in High School?”

“I’m strong, sexy and bold.” Tu Quyen whisper under her voice along with Minh Tuyet

Minh Tuyet lifts Tu Quyen’s face up, “I know you’ll overcome this, you always do and I’ll always be here for you.”

Tu Quyen hugs Minh Tuyet crying.

“We’ll be here by your side too.” Bao Han, Nhu Loan, and Van Quynh walk over and hug Tu Quyen.

After the group crying session in the middle of the house the ladies decided to have a happy party with ice-cream, junk foods, and drinks. They moved the couches away and made a bed out of blankets and sheets in the middle of the living room.

“I’m so happy now thank you.” Tu Quyen seems drunk.

“Are you drunk?” Bao Han asks.

Tu Quyen points at herself, “I’m known to be the liquor queen.”

“You’re drunk.” Nhu Loan tries to take the drink away from Tu Quyen, but Minh Tuyet stops her, “Just let her drink. Let her forgets all the bad things.”

“Should I be seeing this?” Van Quynh laughs.

“Go to your room” Minh Tuyet points upstairs.

Van Quynh frowns, “But…”

Bao Han pushes Minh Tuyet’s hand down, “It’s a family party. It wouldn’t be one if we are missing a family member.”

“Fine but you don’t touch any drinks.”

“Yes madame!” Van Quynh salutes.

“I’m so happy!” Tu Quyen falls on her back and starts to laugh hysterically.

Minh Tuyet stands up, “Everyone remember to come to my re opening coffee shop.”

“What coffee shop?” Bao Han is confused.

“Bang Tam’s coffees shop the location where the incident happens.”

“When did you own it?” Van Quynh asks.

“I don’t own it, but Bang Kieu and I have been cleaning it…”

Nhu Loan scratches her head, “Then that still doesn’t make you the owner.”

“Just come tomorrow.”

Tu Quyen jumps up and hugs Minh Tuyet from behind, “Can I come to tomorrow party too?”

“Yes you can. Now you need to go to sleep.”

“I want to drink some more.” Tu Quyen burps as she falls on her back and goes into a deep sleep.

The others soon fell asleep beside someone that they thought was drunk and asleep. In the middle of the night Tu Quyen sits up in the corner of the house and starts to cry.

episode 011 – ancient love

2007-06-23T10:09:00.000-05:00

[TH & KD Design Company]

Ky Duyen’s favorite white roses fixated everywhere in the extravagant company. There are about thirty employees in the company from designers, accountants and janitors. One of the low pay designers is Bao Han – sitting at her desk with papers thrown everywhere and a small computer to check emails.

“Do you think I’m a machine?” Bao Han whispers angrily under her breath. “I don’t need this bull shit from you. I’ll be a great designer someday watch me.” Bao Han looks at the huge photo on the wall of Ky Duyen and Trinh Hoi.

Bao Han continue to cuss under her breath as she tries to draw a new design before she gets fire. Suddenly her computer makes the sound that someone had IM her.

Lu Bu: Hi!

Diao Chan: Who is this?

Lu Bu: Lu Bu – your ancient love.

Diao Chan: How did you get my screen name?

Lu Bu: On lonelyladies.com

“That was just for fun.” Bao Han stunningly whisper her breath, but she continues to type.

Diao Chan: Why did you decide to chat to me if there are a lot more beautiful women out there with pictures?

Lu Bu: B/c your Diao Chan. You’re supposed to be beautiful.

Diao Chan: I’m an 80 years old woman.

Lu Bu: Only 80? I thought you should be around hundred and thousand of years old.

Diao Chan: Why did you have your screen name to be Lu Bu?

Lu Bu: To find my ancient love, Diao Chan, and you’re her.

Bao Han began to blush and her face has started to turn red. Bao Han then look around the company to see if anyone could see her not working. Seeing no one was looking Bao Han continues to chat to the stranger.

[Coffee Shop]

The shop looks clean because Bang Kieu and Minh Tuyet had spend three days cleaning it up – the broken table and chairs Ha Vy had land on and the many others pieces of random stuff from the conflict.

Bang Kieu hugs Minh Tuyet from behind, “We did it.”

“I know three whole days of hard work.”

“And it’s worth it because I got to spend it with you.”

Minh Tuyet smile, “Stop teasing. Can we move that mirror? It doesn’t look that great lying right there.”

Bang Kieu walks over to the mirror and pick it up – he then move it where Minh Tuyet points.

“Should we be moving stuff?” Bang Kieu is anxious.

“We own the place.”

“We don’t own the place.” Bang Kieu is surprise.

“I mean we clean the place.” Minh Tuyet has an evil look on her face. “I’m not cleaning something that’s not mine.” Minh Tuyet whispers under her voice.

[Home]

Inside the beauties’ home sit Nhu Loan with the crying Tu Quyen lying on her lap. Tu Quyen’s eyes have begun to swollen from all the crying – to the point where her eyes were bright red.

“I’m so stupid for trusting him.” Tu Quyen cries.

Nhu Loan comforts, “You deserve much better.”

“I know.”

“You do now stop crying.” Nhu Loan rolls her eyes.

Tu Quyen cries and screams at the top of her lung when the door bell rings continuously. Nhu Loan gets up and walks toward the door. Opening the door she sees an exhausted Andy Quach; who was out of breath and sweating crazily.

“Is Tu Quyen at home?” Andy questions hurriedly.

Nhu Loan points into the living room where Tu Quyen was still crying, “You did this so now you fix it.”

Andy runs into the house and toward the living room where Tu Quyen was lying. At the moment Tu Quyen sees Andy, she gets up and tries to walk away when Andy grabs her by the arm.

“I’m sorry for not calling or replying to you the past few days.” Andy apologizes.

“You don’t have to replies I’m just your girlfriend.”

“I just needed times to think.”

Andy looks away from Tu Quyen, “About our relationship.”

“Are you questioning our relationship?”

“I’m not the one saying I still love my ex-lover.” Andy screams.

“What ex-lover?” Tu Quyen is confused.

“How can I trust you?”

“Trust me…? How can I trust you?”

Andy laughs, “I heard and saw everything at the hospital at the other day.”

“If showing pity for someone else is a crime then put me in jail!”

“Tell me this. Do you still love him?”

“Who…?” Tu Quyen rubs her forehead, “Why are you testifying me? How about you and that new chick at work? I saw you two flirting and laughing outside the station.”

“Why are you bringing her into this?”

“You’re the one bringing Huy Vu into this.”

“You still love him.”

“You’re cheating on me.”

“Fine…!”

“Tu Quyen is going at it again.” Bao Han digs her hand into the super size Doritos bag.

Nhu Loan scoops another scoop of ice-cream, “Tu Quyen comes join the group of losers.”

“Loser…? I’m not a loser I have a boyfriend that loves me.” Minh Tuyet laughs.

Tu Quyen uses the broom to sweep up all the pieces under Minh Tuyet feet, “Then why are you sitting here eating with us?”

“Because I’m happy and when I’m happy – I eat.”

“Lucky you… When I’m sad I do this.” Tu Quyen keeps on cleaning.

Bao Han laughs, “You need therapy.”

“Why are you unhappy anyway?” Nhu Loan is concern.

“You have a great job and a sexy boyfriend. What do you have to be unhappy about?” Bao Han questions.

Tu Quyen stops cleaning for a moment, “Huy Vu is paralyze and will stay in a coma for the rest of his life… And it’s my fault.”

“He’s still alive… Why didn’t you tell us?” Minh Tuyet is shock.

“I found out yesterday.” Tu Quyen began to cry.

“When someone is in a coma there’s always a chance for them to wake up.” Bao Han comfort.

“One in a million…!” Tu Quyen screams.

“Never mind he’s dead.”

“What?” Tu Quyen gets on her knee and scrubs the tiles on the floor.

“Bao Han!” Nhu Loan shushes. “What Bao Han is trying to say is that we will be here waiting with you until you’re dead.”

Tu Quyen mouth opens wide in shock as she scrubs the floor harder and harder.

Minh Tuyet pushes Nhu Loan and Bao Han to the side, “They both mean that he will wake up and that we will be here supporting you all the way.”

“Yeah that’s what we mean.” Bao Han and Nhu Loan laughs.

“Thank you. He will wake up I know it!” Tu Quyen smile. “By the way why are you two so unhappy?”

“Stupid Ky Duyen gave me a warning letter for coming in thirty second late.” Bao Han screams as she grabs a cookie.

Minh Tuyet laughs, “Thirty second?”

“Yeah and then she scream at me in front of everyone in the company. It was so embarrassing. How do I face other peoples now?” Bao Han stuff another cookie into her mouth.

Nhu Loan puts her arm on Bao Han’s shoulder, “I gave up a modeling job.”

“What?” Tu Quyen screams as she runs toward Nhu Loan.

“I didn’t want to use my body to get a job.”

“You’re a model. You ‘use’ your body.” Minh Tuyet mocks.

Nhu Loan defends herself, “Let just say they wanted to see which model can strip better.”

The other gasps.

[Tu Quyen’s Room]

Tu Quyen fall flat onto her bed thinking of how great it would be if Huy Vu wakes up and she could finally say how much she loves him. Suddenly she remembers her current boyfriend, Andy Quach. Tu Quyen picks up her phone and dials his number; however, the only thing she hears was his voicemail message. “That’s weird he always pick up his phone.” Tu Quyen is scare.

[Police Station]

Tu Quyen enters the police station with a huge smile on her face, but it turns upside down when her chief, Tuan Ngoc, call her into his office and when a cadet is called into his office it was always a bad thing.

With anxiety Tu Quyen walks slowly toward the door – sweat began to drop down her face. Tu Quyen opens the door and the one she see sitting inside the office was her chief, Tuan Ngoc, her current boyfriend, Andy Quach who was out of a wheelchair, and another pretty girl, Cat Tien, that she have never seen before.

“You call me chief?” Tu Quyen walks toward the desk making eye contact with Cat Tien.

Tuan Ngoc screams spitting on the cadets, “Of course I call you!”

“Why did you call me sir?” Tu Quyen screams back.

“Why are you screaming at me?” Tuan Ngoc questions with a scream.

Tu Quyen scratches her, “I don’t know sir.”

“After your great success of teaching Andy I’ll like to introduce you to Cat Tien – she’ll be under you also. I expect her to be as wonderful as you are. Understand?”

“Yes sir!” Tu Quyen salute.

Tu Quyen, Cat Tien, and Andy Quach walks out of the door quickly before Tuan Ngoc spits on them again. Tu Quyen tries to catch up with Andy to talk to him, but was stop by Cat Tien, “I’ve always been a big fan of you madam Quyen.”

“Thank You!” Tu Quyen tries to walk away.

Cat Tien walks behind Tu Quyen, “When I finish training I want to be just like you - smart, strong, and sexy.”

Tu Quyen smiles, “I need to go to work now.”

“Can I help?” Cat Tien jumps up and down like a child.

“Sorry this is top secret.” Tu Quyen walks off finding Andy leaving Cat Tien bump out in the middle of the police station.

Tu Quyen walks toward Andy, but was once again stop by a past friend, Ho le Thu.

“What are you doing here?” Tu Quyen questions.

“I came to visit Eddie.” Ho Le Thu smile.

Tu Quyen looks for Andy in the crowd of police while asking Ho Le Thu, “You want me to take you?”

“That would be great!”

“I didn’t mean that.” Tu Quyen whispers under her voice.

“What was that?”

“Nothing lets go.” Tu Quyen takes Ho Le Thu into the back of the police station where the entire prisoners were kept. The cells were dirty, dark, and cold. The only light were from a window in each cell – the light shine dimly. When they reach Eddie’s cell, she was reading a magazine sent in from a friend.

“Eddie you have a visitor.” Tu Quyen announces.

“It’s me, Ho Le Thu.”

Eddie puts down the magazine and walks toward the bars, “What are you doing here?”

“I’ll leave you two. Don’t talk too long.” Tu Quyen runs off.

Ho Le Thu holds Eddie’s hand through the bar, “This is unjust I know you are innocent.”

“The law is the law.”

Ho Le Thu slips a box of cookie through the bars, “Keep this it’s your favorite type of cookie.”

“You are so kind.”

“We are coworker and friends.” Ho Le Thu smile.

“How is the company?”

Ho Le Thu faces change, “Talking about the company. That’s one of the reason I’m here.”

“What is the problem?” Eddie is concern.

“There is no easy way to say this, but now that you are in jail and unable to work. The company wants me to take over your seat.”

Eddie lets go of Ho Le Thu’s hand, “I understand.”

“Can you give me the key to your house and tell me where all the company files are at?”

“I’ll tell Tu Quyen to give you the key and all the files are in my bedroom.” Eddie frowns.

“I know this is hard for you. Don’t worry because you’ll be let out of here soon and you’ll get back your job.” Ho Le Thu comforts.

Eddie smile, ‘Thank You. You’re a true friend.”

“I’ve got to go now.” Ho Le Thu hugs Eddie through the bars and walks away with a huge devilish grin on her face.

[Outside the Police Station]

Tu Quyen walks out of the door exhausted at running around looking for Andy. Suddenly she sees Andy sitting under a huge tree. When she walks toward the tree to talk to him she then realize that he was not alone. Talking and laughing Tu Quyen sees Andy and the new girl, Cat Tien, sitting together.

“You’re a bastard.” Tu Quyen whispers under voice as she runs off crying.

To Tu Quyen dismay Andy was only teaching what Tu Quyen had taught him over the year.

“Madam Quyen is one of the most intelligent people.” Andy smile.
Cat Tien frown, “She seem to hate me.”

“Why do you say that?”

“When I try to talk to her, she seems to ignore me.”

“She must be busy at the moment then because she takes her works seriously.” Andy defends Tu Quyen.

Cat Tien smile, “You respect her a lot don’t you?”

“I don’t just respect her. I love her.”

“What?” Cat Tien is shock.

“I mean I love her as my teacher.” Andy is embarrassed. Andy then realizes that he loves Tu Quyen so much. He excuses himself and run off slowly - his feet still hurt – toward his car. “I love Tu Quyen!”

“Give him a chance?” Andy asks.

“No… I didn’t love him!”

“Exactly you are the most innocent one in this situation.” Andy comforts.

Tu Quyen smile, “When did you get all helpful and reasonable?”

“When I met you…” Andy smile and kisses Tu Quyen.

“Andy what are you doing here?” Tu Quyen whispers.

Andy let goes of his feet, “You think I’m going to let you go in there by yourself?”

“I command you to leave.” Tu Quyen points to the front of the shop.

“I have something to tell you…” Andy scratches his head.

“Tell me what?”

“Well… I know that you are my teacher and all, but I… I…” Andy shutters.

“I?”

“I… Arg how do I tell you this?” Andy punches the wall.

“You can tell me later. I have to go save some peoples.” Tu Quyen pushes Andy away as she opens the door.

“What the hell do you think you are doing?” Tu Quyen screams in anger.

“I love…”

“Love…? Do you even know what love is? You are my student for goodness sake.” Tu Quyen scoffs.

Andy steps forward, “Please give me one chance.”

Tu Quyen sticks out her hand motioning him to stop, “I can’t deal with this now. I have to go.”

Tu Quyen opens the door quietly and steps into the coffee shop leaving Andy speechless and rejected. She makes her through the kitchen and had reached the room where the entire hostages were at. Getting on her knees she crawls under the counter with the gun in her right hand.

Huy Vu was sitting in the chair where Luong Tung Quang had sat before; pointing the gun at the hostages while eating donuts and drinking coffee. Suddenly at the corner of his eyes site he sees Tu Quyen’s reflection crawling from the same mirror he had seen Bang Tam.

Huy Vu stands up and walks over to the counter and looks over pointing the gun at Tu Quyen’s head, “I've been waiting for you.”

Tu Quyen drops the gun and slowly stands up with her hands on the back of her forehead.

“Tu Quyen.” Huy Vu smile.

“You can turn back. You don’t have to do this.” Tu Quyen begs.

“Shut up! I didn’t have to do this if you just give me a chance.” Huy Vu screams.

“We were coworkers.”

“Who say we can’t get together?” Huy Vu hold the gun up.

Minh Tuyet pushes Bang Kieu away from her, “Don’t shoot!”

“Huy Vu please I beg you they are innocent. I’m the only one you want” Tu Quyen points over to the hostages.

“No one is leaving here alive and I guarantee that.” Huy Vu laughs.

Tu Quyen slowly moves her hand into her pocket and takes out the other gun she had take with her. Pulling it out she points the gun at Huy Vu, “Put your gun down.”

“Shoot me…” Huy Vu screams swinging his gun around his index finger.

As Huy Vu steps forward Tu Quyen moves backward until she bumps into the mirror. Suddenly the sun shines on the mirror and it blinds Huy Vu causing him to pull the trigger. The bullet shoot toward Tu Quyen when suddenly Andy jumps in front of her taking in the bullet. Tu Quyen screams in shock as she drops to the floor crying at the dying Andy.

“What is wrong with you?” Tu Quyen cries.

Looking at the bottom of the gun he sees that the ammunition had fallen out of the gun when Tu Quyen drops it. Huy Vu looks over at Luong Tung Quang with raging eyes, he moves the hand with the gun slowly up until it points at Luong Tung Quang’s head. He was about to pull the trigger when Tu Quyen’s cell phone rings.

“Pick it up!” Huy Vu screams.

Tu Quyen picks up the phone, “Hello? Ok I will ask him.”

“Who was it?” Huy Vu ask.

“Your wife…”

“What did she want?”

“If she can come in and ask you something.”

“No!” Huy Vu screams.

Suddenly the door pops open and standing at the door was Huy Vu’s wife, Ha Vy, she was in tears.

“Why are you doing this?” Ha Vy cries.

Huy Vu grabs Ha Vy’s arm pulling her into the store while closing the door behind her. After Ha Vy was inside she pushes Huy Vu away.

“You do this all for her?” Ha Vy points at Tu Quyen.

Huy Vu slaps Ha Vy across the face, “Who are you to question me?”

“Your wife... That's who”

Huy Vu turns around about to slap Ha Vy again.

“What have you turned into?” Ha Vy question.

Huy Vu get angry and shoot Ha Vu in the chest; her body fell onto the coffee table and broke it into pieces. “Something you will never understand.” Huy Vu grins.

Bang Tam scream in terror in the corner.

Huy Vu turns over, “Shut the f*** up!”

Still Bang Tam screams her lung out until Huy Vu shot her. Minh Tuyet eyes bulges at the bloody sight and tries to move over and help Bang Tam when Luong Tung Quang move over to hold down the blood.

Bang Kieu kiss Minh Tuyet on her forehead, “I know that we have only dated for less then 24 hours, but I can say that I love you.”

“Even if I die today, I would still be happy dying in your arms.” Minh Tuyet hugs Bang Kieu tighter.

“This might be the last time I’ll tell you this, but…” Andy tries to say.

“Shhh… Try to rest and never go to sleep ok?” Tu Quyen cries.

“I… I love you!” Andy faints.

“Wake up Andy you can’t fall asleep on me.” Tu Quyen hugs Andy.

Huy Vu turns around and look at the Tu Quyen in tears, “So this is your new lover?”

Tu Quyen lays Andy down slowly and stand up in anger, “That was your wife you just kill. Remember when we first met you told me that you will care and cherish the person you marry and love? Who did you just kill? Your wife the one you love…”

“I didn’t love her…” Huy Vu scream.

“But you marry her didn’t you and what did you say during your vows? To love her until you die!”

“The only person I have ever loved is you.” Huy Vu steps toward Tu Quyen.

Tu Quyen begs, “Please just stop.”

Huy Vu and Tu Quyen were now face to face; their lips got closer and closer until they touch. They began kissing when a gun shot was heard; Huy Vu eyes bulges in pain.

“I’m sorry.” Tu Quyen cries.

Huy Vu step backward away from Tu Quyen and fell dead on the floor. Tu Quyen then drop the gun to the floor and right there she drop down right after crying at the gruesome sight.

“Hello? Who is this?” Khanh Ly asks as she held the phone close to her ears. “Bang Kieu misses you a lot to darling. What have he been doing? Just helping me out with the house, but he will be returning back to New York when he is finish with his job over here. Ok I will take care darling.”

“Who was that?” Bang Kieu asks when he enters the kitchen.

“Trizzie, she calls to ask if you are ok.” Khanh Ly hangs up the phone.

“Did she mention anything important?” Bang Kieu bites into a cookie.

“Nothing important she just wants you to return to New York.”

“It’s always what she wants; it’s never what I want.” Bang Kieu spits out the cookies in his mouth and walks out of the kitchen.

[Coffee Shop]

That morning Bang Kieu had call Minh Tuyet out for some coffee. Minh Tuyet skips happily toward the coffee shop when a man in a black suit and dark shades bumps into her. He walks past her without saying sorry; however, Minh Tuyet was too happy to get angry. She enters the coffee shop where she was greeted by the owner, Bang Tam.

“Welcome to Bang Tam’s coffee shop. How can I help you?” Bang Tam Greets.

“I’m here with someone…”

“Minh Tuyet! Over here!” Bang Kieu calls.

“I’m with him.” Minh Tuyet points.

Bang Tam leads Minh Tuyet to where Bang Kieu was sitting; he was having coffee and a donut. Bang Kieu stood up from where he was sitting and get a chair for Minh Tuyet which made her smile.

“Thank You.” Minh Tuyet smile.

“What would you like?” Bang Tam asks handing her a menu.

“I just want some hot coffee. Thank You.” Minh Tuyet replies.

When Bang Tam leaves to go get Minh Tuyet her food, Minh Tuyet observe the place; there was only another man who sat at the other side of the room. She couldn’t see his face because he had his back toward Minh Tuyet; however, she could see that he had a gun.

“I don’t feel to well.” Minh Tuyet weeps.

“Is it something you eat?” Bang Kieu asks with care.

“I don't know, but can you take me home?”

Bang Kieu helps Minh Tuyet out of her chair and they walks toward the door, but before they could open the door Bang Tam told them to stop.

“Where are you guys going?” Bang Tam asks.

“She doesn’t feel too good.” Bang Kieu answer.

Bang Tam walks over to where the couple were standing, “You didn’t pay for what you have order.”

“That’s not paying?” Bang Kieu points over to his table where there were money.

“I’m sorry about that.” Bang Tam laughs.

Minh Tuyet pretends to falls over onto Bang Tam where she whispers, “The guy over there has a gun.”

Bang Tam looks closely over and sees the gun in the guy’s pocket which causes her to go pale, “He’s going to rob us.”

“Keep calm go slowly over and call 911.” Minh Tuyet whispers.

Bang Kieu helps Minh Tuyet up as Bang Tam walks over to her phone, she tries slowly to dial but because of the shaking she mistakenly dials 912. Bang Tam then hurriedly tries to dial again when the door budges open hitting both Minh Tuyet and Bang Kieu to the floors. The robber (Huy Vu) holds a gun in one hand and a bag in the other.

“Everyone in the store get down on the floor.” Huy Vu screams.

Bang Tam screams in fear as she falls onto the floor with the phone still in her hand. Bang Kieu had wrapped his whole body around Minh Tuyet protecting her which causes her to feel safe and secure. Huy Vu made his way into the store closing the door behind him. When he past the other guy who is still sitting drinking his coffee.

“Get on the floor.” Huy Vu puts the gun at the guys head. The other guy (Luong Tung Quang) turns around and spit the coffee into Huy Vu’s face. Because of the sudden burn Huy Vu shot the gun to the ceiling which causes Bang Tam and Minh Tuyet to scream. Luong Tung Quang reaches inside his pocket and pulls out the gun that Minh Tuyet have seen before and points at Huy Vu’s forehead.

“Your days are over Mr. Vu.” Luong Tung Quang grins.

“Are you sure about that?” Huy Vu asks with one hand on his eye and the other on the gun which was pointed at Luong Tung Quang stomach.

[Outside the Coffee Shop]

After the shot was heard by peoples walking by someone had called the police from a telephone booth. Tu Quyen arrives with other police officers in police cars surrounding the coffee shop. They were station behind their cars door waiting for the next move. Tu Quyen kneels down by her door when she sees Bao Han, Nhu Loan, and Van Quynh being push away from the other police officer.

“My sister is in there.” Van Quynh begs.

“This is a dangerous zone. Please leave.” The police officer (Andy Quach) says politely.

“But my sister is in there and I don’t know if she’s dead or not.” Van Quynh cries.

“Let her in and…” Bao Han says in a sexy voice.

Andy Quach pushes Bao Han softly off his shoulder, “Are you trying to seduce me?”

“Let them in.” Tu Quyen approaches from behind.

“Madam Quyen.” Andy Quach salute.

Nhu Loan, Bao Han, and Van Quynh walk with Tu Quyen toward her police car.

“You really do care for your sister.” Nhu Loan hugs Van Quynh.

“I just want to see the excitement.” Van Quynh pushes Nhu Loan away.

Bao Han loops her hand into Tu Quyen, “Who is that over there?”

“His name is Andy Quach and I’m supposed to train him.” Tu Quyen tap Bao Han on the head.

“Hook us up.” Bao Han asks.

“Don’t you see I’m working?” Tu Quyen looks at Bao Han with mean eyes.

[Coffee Shop]

Luong Tung Quang and Huy Vu are still standing in the middle of the room with guns pointing at each other. Eyes on eyes they stare at each other when at the corner of Huy Vu’s eyes he sees the reflection of Bang Tam crawling behind her counter toward the back room, she accidentally puts her hand onto a mouse trap. When the mouse trap hit her hand, it distracts Luong Tung Quang attention and Huy Vu uses his elbow to knock the gun out of Luong Tung Quang’s hand. With one gun in his hand and grabbing the other gun Huy Vu laughs with pleasure.

“I thought my time was over?” Huy Vu mocks as he kicks Luong Tung Quang to the floor.

[Outside the Coffee Shop]

Everyone was scare and shock as they hear the second gun shot which they didn't realize was from a mouse trap. The cops had begun to bring in the SWAT team and reporters were all over the place. In Tu Quyen’s cars Van Quynh turned pale and this was the first time she was scare for her sister's life.

“You guys stay here. I’m going in.” Tu Quyen instructs.

“Going in? Are you crazy?” Nhu Loan grabs Tu Quyen’s hand.

“I have too.” Tu Quyen pushes Nhu Loan’s hand away.

Bao Han steps out of the car, “You don’t even know how many robbers are in there.”

“When I took this job I swear to myself that I would protect this neighborhood and it’s my duty to do this. Even worst is that Minh Tuyet is in there. I can’t let anything happen to her.” Tu Quyen cries.

“But…”

“No but I’m going in. If anyone of you were in there you would want to be safe too.” Tu Quyen points at the coffee shop.

Bao Han slowly lets go of her grib on Tu Quyen wrist and kisses her on the forehead, “You better be careful.”

Both Nhu Loan and Van Quynh steps out of the car and hugs Tu Quyen. After a few minute Tu Quyen grab two gun and some ammunitions and runs toward the back of the coffee shop. As the ladies look at the site of Tu Quyen running they hug each other hoping for the best that this will not be the last time they will see Tu Quyen and Minh Tuyet…

episode 005 – asking her out

2007-06-05T11:13:00.000-05:00

[Wisteria Lane]

At the corner of Wisteria Lane stands an isolated house with large trees and bushes covering it. As Minh Tuyet mumbles cuss words under her breath, she and Van Quynh walks toward the dark and mysterious house. The house look worst as they got closer because of the yellow and white egg yolk that was splatter everywhere – on the trees, door, windows, and even the dog house.

“Why are we going here again?” Minh Tuyet questions as she yawn.

Van Quynh looks over at Minh Tuyet, “You already forgot? You egg this poor woman’s house.”

“Oh yeah I forgot… You have to forgive me it’s 6 in the morning.” Minh Tuyet remembers.

“Look you’re exercising… You need it.” Van Quynh looks Minh Tuyet up and down.

Minh Tuyet put her hands to her hip, “Are you saying I’m fat?”

“No, no I didn’t mean… What am I kidding? Yes you’re like a big fat pig.”

“I’m fat? Oh gosh I need to run.” Minh Tuyet gasps as she starts sprinting toward the house.

Van Quynh smile at her silly sister. When they reach the front porch of the isolated house, Van Quynh rings the door bell; however, no one answer the door.

“No one’s home we can go back home to sleep.” Minh Tuyet screams with joy.

Suddenly the door opens and standing at the door was a man at his thirties; he was still in his pajamas, but he still had a magnificent huge smile which causes Minh Tuyet to blush.

“Or I can sleep tomorrow.” Minh Tuyet blushes.

Van Quynh introduces, “Hi I’m Van Quynh and this is my sister, Minh Tuyet… What in earth are you doing?”

“I’m smelling the very nice man.” Minh Tuyet sniffs.

“I didn’t know I smell that good… Oh my name is Bang Kieu by the way.” The man introduces himself as he tries to push Minh Tuyet away.

“Is Mrs. Khanh Ly here right now?” Van Quynh asks.

Bang Kieu is surprise, “Are you a friend of my mom?”

“She’s your mother?” Minh Tuyet sounds shock. “You must have gotten the good luck genes from your dad’s side.”

“Are you saying I’m hideous?’ Khanh Ly pushes Minh Tuyet softly off Bang Kieu when she pop out from behind Bang Kieu.

Minh Tuyet puts her hand on her shoulder, “What was that for you hag?”

“For the other day.” Khanh Ly sticks out her tounge.

“What happen the other day?” Bang Kieu asks.

“Nothing happen at all the other day right ladies?” Van Quynh quickly said.

“Why are you here anyway?” Khanh Ly asks.

Van Quynh scratches her head, “We are here because of this egg incident… Minh Tuyet you tell them.”

Minh Tuyet looks over at Van Quynh with shock, “Well you see the other night I was walking alone and…”

“And you got mad and egged my house?’ Khanh Ly interrupts.

“No. No I did not get mad, I became unhappy so…” Minh Tuyet laughs.

“So you egged our house?’ Bang Kieu asks.

Minh Tuyet touches Bang Kieu on the shoulder, “No way would I ever do that. I just got very unhappy because…”

“Because you got mad and egged my house.” Khanh Ly interrupts again.

“Do you want me to finish my story?” Minh Tuyet screams in Khanh Ly’s face.

Van Quynh taps Minh Tuyet, ‘We don’t have all day.”

“Well I was unhappy because…” Minh Tuyet pauses, “Because I saw bunches of kids egging your house.”

“Really did you see who those bunches of kids were?” Khanh Ly folds her arm.

“It was so dark.” Minh Tuyet smile.

Van Quynh pinches Minh Tuyet from the back, “Tell them the truth!”

“Ouch! Ok. Ha-ha.” Minh Tuyet laughs in pain. “I… uh… well kind of egg your house because I was mad at you from the other day and my sister caught me so I’m here to say sorry and clean it up for you. Breath…”

There were shocks on Khanh Ly and Bang Kieu faces.

“You evil no good b…” Khanh Ly says when she was interrupted by Bang Kieu. “Mom language… What my mom is trying to say is you are an evil no good breather.”

“What?” Minh Tuyet is confused.

Bang Kieu pushes his mom into the house, “She’s reminding you to breathe next time when you talk fast.”

Minh Tuyet smile, “You are so sweet.”

“Thank you… would you like to go out for a drink sometimes?” Bang Kieu asks.

“Did you just ask that evil no good b… out?” Khanh Ly screams from inside.

“No mom I’m telling her to get lost.” Bang Kieu reply as he winks at Minh Tuyet who became tomato red.

“I’ll be happy to… Did you hear that Van Quynh? He just asks me…” Minh Tuyet scream happily, but stop when she realize Van Quynh was gone.

“When did she leave?”

Bang Kieu laughs, “About 5 minute ago.”

“Oh I… I don’t care because you just ask me out.” Minh Tuyet laughs.

“I’ll see you then.” Bang Kieu smile.

“See you then.” Minh Tuyet blushes.

Bang Kieu was about to close the door when a foot got in the way.
“Ouch!” The foot screams as Bang Kieu opens the door and standing in front of the door was Minh Tuyet jumping up and down holding her foot.

“You can knock… That’s what your knuckles are for.” Bang Kieu jokes.

“I forgot to ask for your phone number.” Minh Tuyet continues to jumps.

Bang Kieu looks at her with one eyebrow up, “You really want my phone number?”

“What you don’t want to give me your phone number/” Minh Tuyet slowly puts her foot down.

“Of course not…”

“And I thought you like… me.” Minh Tuyet turns around and starts walking away.

Bang Kieu runs out of the house and grab Minh Tuyet turning her around to where they were face to face, “You didn’t let me finish. Of course I don’t want you to have my home phone number because…”

“Why are you still out there?” Khanh Ly screams loudly.

“Well because of that.” Bang Kieu points into the house. He then sticks his hand into his pocket and pull out a cell phone, “Now this is the number I want to give to you.”

“You got me all confuse.” Minh Tuyet wipes her tears and trade their phone number.
Bang Kieu and Minh Tuyet face got closer and closer until they were about to kiss, but suddenly someone from behind smack Bang Kieu in the head.

“What are you still doing out here?” Khanh Ly screams.

Seeing the furious Khanh Ly, Minh Tuyet runs off mouthing, “Call me.”

“Isn’t she something?” Bang Kieu hugs the shock Khanh Ly.

episode 004 – rise of the past

2007-06-02T09:23:00.000-05:00

On the street of Wisteria Lane the housewives were cussing and screaming at the beauties, however they don’t know that the beauties could fight and argue for hours without backing down. Tu Quyen felt it was her job as a police woman to stop the inappropriate behavior between the neighbor before - when they were in the police station and now in the street. With many attempts Tu Quyen manage to force the beauties into the house.

“Don’t push me into the house; if you let me I’ll punch that woman already!” Bao Han screams in rage.

Tu Quyen comfort, “You must know that I’m a police woman and I’ll get deduct points if my friends are fighting in the streets. Please for me?”

“I’ve never been so embarrass.” Nhu Loan screams.

The beauties walk toward their living room where they sat on their comfortable, tan color sofa. For a moment there was an awkward silent in the house where no one seems to talk, but look each others in the eyes.

“How did she know all that stuff about us?” Minh Tuyet suddenly asks.

Nhu Loan stands up, “You’re right! She knew our secret that we only tell each other?”

“Meaning…” Tu Quyen says in a suspicious voice.

Minh Tuyet jumps up, “One of us is a traitor!”

Van Quynh rolls her eyes, “No. One of us is a donkey!”

“The only person that knew I cheated my way out of high school is you.” Nhu Loan points at Bao Han.

Bao Han defends herself, “I’m innocent I never told anybody. You know I’m the best at keeping secret.”

“Then how did that woman know? I trusted you!” Nhu Loan cries.

“Who told her what happen to me at school?” Van Quynh questions.

Tu Quyen smirks, “What happen to you at school?”

“Shut Up!” Van Quynh folds her arm.

Nhu Loan walks over to Tu Quyen, “Obviously Tu Quyen didn’t do it.”

“Why am I the last one to know everything? You guys don’t trust me with your secrets?” Tu Quyen asks.

Minh Tuyet hugs Tu Quyen, “No we trust… Phss we don’t trust you at all!”

“No one will own up to their action? Fine! Bao Han wet her bed till she was 15 years old.” Nhu Loan confess making the other girls laugh.

“How dare you?” Bao Han was in shock, “You know how Nhu Loan cheated her way out of high school? It involves a girl, a principle, and a table!”

“Tu Quyen was once 250 pounds!” Nhu Loan points at Tu Quyen.

Tu Quyen looks over at Nhu Loan, “You Bitch!”

“If I’m going down I’m taking everyone down with me.” Nhu Loan smile.

Minh Tuyet asks, “How did you walk with all those rolls?”

“Minh Tuyet once kiss a girl.” Tu Quyen screams.

Minh Tuyet gasps, “She kissed me, I didn’t know she was like that.”

Van Quynh laughs, “My sister is a lesbian.”

“Tu Quyen got pants in P.E class in 8th grade.” Minh Tuyet points.

Bao Han laughs, “What a loser.”

“At least I didn’t ask a guy out.” Tu Quyen laughs.

Nhu Loan jumps onto the table asking, “Who? Who?”

“Mike.” Tu Quyen screams before Bao Han could cover her mouth.

“Mike the guy who eats glue?” Nhu Loan makes a disgust face.

“Yeah and she kneels down to ask him too.” Tu Quyen nod.

“Will you date me? Oh I’m so desperate.” Nhu Loan kneels down in front of Tu Quyen imitating Bao Han which causes Bao Han cheeks to turn red.

“You guys are so mean!” Bao Han tears up as she runs up the stair and slams the door loudly.

Minh Tuyet, Nhu Loan, and Tu Quyen look at each other and shudder as they laugh softly so that Bao Han wouldn’t hear.

“Stop laughing at Bao Han!” Van Quynh screams loudly as she walks toward the staircase.

Nhu Loan chases Van Quynh up the stair, but soon gave up when her cell phone rang.

“I love you girls.” Tu Quyen shakes her head.

Minh Tuyet walks over to Tu Quyen, “Did Eddie do it?”

“Do what?” Tu Quyen questions.

“Kill the woman.” Minh Tuyet whispers.

Tu Quyen looks over and smile, “You know I can’t tell you anything or I’ll get fire.”

“Only you and I will know.” Minh Tuyet winks.

“I can’t do that.”

“Please I just care for Eddie.” Minh Tuyet begs.

Tu Quyen finally gives in, “For now she will stay in custody at the police station’s jail. I really do think that she is innocent.”

“Why?” Minh Tuyet screams. “I mean why?” Minh Tuyet changes her voice to a sweet and innocent tone.

“I know when peoples are lying and I can tell that Eddie is telling the truth.” Tu Quyen walks off.

Minh Tuyet whisper her breath, “You stupid idiot can you tell I’m lying?”

Standing alone in the living room Minh Tuyet paces back and forth thinking what will happen to Eddie.

“What are you doing?” Van Quynh walks in scaring Minh Tuyet.

Minh Tuyet calms herself down, “Nothing just thinking.”

“Thinking about what?”

“Something you don’t need to worry about.” Minh Tuyet smile.

“I know what you did last night.” Van Quynh says in a creepy voice.

Minh Tuyet is nervous, “I already told you. I went for a walk.”

“Don’t even lie to me. Someone saw you and they will tell unless you go confess.”

Minh Tuyet begs, “Please I didn’t mean to do it. I swear.”

“Why did you have to do that? She was innocent.” Van Quynh cries.
Minh Tuyet explains, “Fine because she knew too much, way too much about me and everybody in this house.”

“Know what?” Van Quynh is confused.

“What are you talking about?” Minh Tuyet asks.

Van Quynh laughs, “I was talking about the old lady, Khanh Ly, remember we met the other day?”

“Yes the one I push out of the taxi.” Minh Tuyet smirks.

“Someone saw you egg her house last night.” Van Quynh admits.

Minh Tuyet eyes bulges, “What?”

“Yes one of my friends saw you egging her house.” Van Quynh shakes her head.

“No I… I… Did do it, I can’t lie to you.” Minh Tuyet lies.

Van Quynh walks off, “You better go over there tomorrow and clean it up for her or else.”

“Clean? Me? You must be dreaming.” Minh Tuyet gives a devilish smile.

episode 003 – war arising

2007-05-30T09:02:00.000-05:00

That morning everyone at Wisteria Lane woke up with weariness of something being wrong and thinking of something being extremely wrong is ironically right.

[Minh Tuyet and Van Quynh’s room]

Minh Tuyet woke up with a huge smile across her face and suddenly scream at the sight of Van Quynh so near to her face.

“You scare the daylight out of me.” Minh Tuyet jokily laughs.

Van Quynh stood up, “Where were you last night?”

Minh Tuyet’s smile began to disappear, “What do you mean? I was asleep.”

“I woke up in the middle of the night because I wanted to talk to you, but you were not there.” Van Quynh is suspicious.

“I went downstairs to get a cup of water…” Minh Tuyet hurriedly says.

Van Quynh interrupts, “I went downstairs… Actually I went all over the house to look for you, even the others room and I didn’t know Bao Han snores.”

“Well…” Minh Tuyet scratches her head.

“Tell me the truth!” Van Quynh is impatient.

Minh Tuyet began laughing hysterically, “I went out to breath in the night air.”

Van Quynh stares over with suspicious eyes, “Can I believe you?”

“Come on lets go get breakfast.” Minh Tuyet hugs Van Quynh with an evil grin on her face.

[Kitchen]

With a big yawn Bao Han enters the kitchen, “I couldn’t sleep last night at all.”

Minh Tuyet looks over at Van Quynh and smile, but Van Quynh was eating her breakfast ignoring Minh Tuyet.

“Here is your breakfast your highness.” Tu Quyen mocks as she set down Bao Han’s breakfast.

“This toast and scramble eggs looks good madam Quyen.” Bao Han admires.

With foods in her mouth, Nhu Loan thanks, “We are so fortunate to have you cook for us because if you’re not here we would have to eat fast food all the time.”

“That’s true madam Quyen!” Minh Tuyet salutes causing everyone to laugh.

“Oh gosh look at the T.V!” Van Quynh is in shock leading everyone to look over.

“This is KTLA 5 CW morning news; this is Sam Rubin with your morning news. There have been a new discovery of a brutally murder woman founded in the backyard of Eddie Britt at Wisteria Lane. The woman might be the owner of the house Eddie Britt, but police are still trying to identify the body because of the massive blood coverage. Therefore if you know anything about this murder please contacts the KTLA 5 CW morning news. Thank You!”

The ladies were in shock and disbelieve, however; Minh Tuyet was the only with a huge grin on her face.

[Eddie’s house]

Tu Quyen shows the other police officers her badges and they enter into the back yard. Once they were in the backyard they were disgusts by the bloody body.

“The body looks like Eddie alright.” Bao Han mumbles to the others.

Nhu Loan whisper, “Wonder what happen?”

“Maybe she got on somebody’s bad side.” Minh Tuyet grins.

“It’s indeed Eddie.” Tu Quyen says holding a plastic bag with a wallet inside.

Van Quynh frowns, “Why don’t they clean up her face?”

Tu Quyen explains, “It’s no use the face was destroyed.”

The whole neighborhood of Wisteria Lane were either looking in from the fence, roof, or any where they could look in and see this incident. The police had begun to carries the body into the ambulance when a car turns into the corner of the street. Stepping out of the car was no one other then Eddie Britt. Reporters, police, and the neighbor started running toward the blond bombshell to discover what had happen.

[Police Station, Police Office]

“Miss Britt can you state to us where you were last night?” Tu Quyen demanded.

Eddie speaks with her hand folded, “That is my own business.”

Tu Quyen slams on the table, “Miss Britt you should know this is the police, if you don’t tell the truth we can send you to jail.”

“Tu Quyen you know…”

“I’m at work right now. Please call me Madam Quyen.” Tu Quyen interrupts.

“Fine I was out of town.” Eddie confesses.

Tu Quyen looks over, “Why were you out of town and who is that dead woman?”

Eddie is confuse, “I really have no idea who that is and why it was there. I swear I’m innocent.”

“Everyone says that when they’re here.” Tu Quyen stares into Eddie’s eyes.

Outside that office sit everyone that lives in Wisteria Lane, anticipating and waiting to discover the mystery about the dead gruesome body - why, where, and how it had happen. The neighbor had begun to sit on difference side of the hall in division of who thinks Eddie was the murderer or the innocent. More then 70 percent of the neighbors sat calmly on the guilty side. Bao Han, Nhu Loan, Van Quynh, and Minh Tuyet sat on the innocent side with four housewives.

“Can I move over there? Everyone is looking at us with evil eyes.” Bao Han wail.

Nhu Loan hushes, “You know Eddie is innocent.”

“She is very innocent.” Minh Tuyet smirks.

Van Quynh looks over at the three housewives that were sitting on the innocent side and asks, “Do you know Eddie?”

“What this is the innocent side?” A woman screams as she stands up and walks to the other side of the hall.

“Do you want to go to the other side too?” Van Quynh frowns.

A woman says calmly, “I work with Eddie and I don’t think she would dare do such a thing and if she did why would she just lay the body in her backyard?”

“That’s true.” Bao Han interrupts. “My name is Bao Han and this is Nhu Loan, Van Quynh, and Minh Tuyet.”

“Mine’s Ho Le Thu.” The woman shakes each one of their hands.

As the sight of the ladies coming over to talk to her the other woman that was sitting on their side immediately stands up and moves across the room.

The door of the office swung open and exiting it was Tu Quyen and Eddie Britt. Seeing them the neighbor stands up getting ready for question.

“Please everyone sit down.” Tu Quyen moves her hands and leaves with Eddie farther into the police station.

“Who does she think she is making us all sit down?” Bao Han is angry.

Nhu Loan looks over with a smile, “Maybe a police and your friend.”

“They only move in for a day and there’s already trouble.” A woman whispers, but loud enough for the beauties to hear.

Bao Han walks into the middle of the room with her hands cross, “If someone have something to say then they can say it to my face.”

“You want me too?” The woman folds up her sleeves.

“Huong Lan please don’t start trouble.” The other housewives scream.

“Shut up! I’m not starting trouble, but telling the truth.” Huong Lan hushes. Looking over at Bao Han, “You girls enter Wisteria Lane in your little skirt and tank tops. Showing your cleavage to do what? Steal our husband or snatch away our underage son?”

Bao Han points her finger, “You…”

Huong Lan grab Bao Han finger, “What you want to poke my eyes out? I’m already blind looking at the way you girls dress.”

Bao Han eyes began to dwell up at the embarrassment. Minh Tuyet seeing the horrible scene stood up with an angry face.

“Mrs. Please try to calm down.” Minh Tuyet says in a sweet and innocent voice.

“Don’t be so fake you poser.” Huong Lan laughs.

Minh Tuyet is furious but manages to say in a sweet voice, “What do you mean?”

Huong Lan step forward, “You act all innocent and sweet but inside I knows you are a brat and evil person.”

“Eddie.” Minh Tuyet whispers under her breath.

Nhu Loan steps forward about to speak but Huong Lan interrupts, “You are not that better. If you look at her you think she’s a great person, but…”

“But what I did no wrongs.” Nhu Loan lifts her face up high.

“But you are not because you cheated your way out of high school and into the modeling industries. You disgust me.” Huong Lan spits on the ground.

“And you little brat you’re not any better then these slut.” Huong Lan points at Van Quynh.

Van Quynh points at herself, “Me what have I done?”

“Don’t even try to be innocent. You know what you did in high school so don’t make me tell everyone here at Wisteria Lane.” Huong Lan laughs.

“How do you know these things?” Bao Han questions.

“How don’t we know?” Huong Lan asks.

“That’s enough.” Ho Le Thu steps forward and slaps Huong Lan across the face as Tu Quyen and Eddie enter the room from behind.

“What the hell is going on?” Eddie questions.

“Seem like another housewives war.” Tu Quyen shakes her head.

In the small room of the police office stands Huong Lan on one side with many housewives behind supporting her and Ho Le Thu defended by Bao Han, Nhu Loan, Van Quynh, and Minh Tuyet stands on the other side getting ready to strike at any moment.

episode 002 – home

2007-05-27T08:19:00.000-05:00

[House]

The door knob turns and the door pop open with the four ladies standing in astonishment. Bao Han, Nhu Loan and Tu Quyen runs into the house screaming with happiness leaving Minh Tuyet and Eddie at the front step with the suitcases.

“You’re not expecting us to carry this in are you?” Eddie screams at the three that had ran off to see the house.

Minh Tuyet starts picking up as much suitcase as she can with her tiny hand, “Just let them be.”
Eddie folds her arm, “I’m not going to do that. I don’t want to break a nail.”

“Fine then I’ll do it myself.” Minh Tuyet says softly as she begins walking wobbly inside the house with her hand full.

From behind Eddie looks at Minh Tuyet with pity and she gives in by helping Minh Tuyet carries the suit cases. She walks past Minh Tuyet and turn back with a big smile, “I’m bold, beautiful, and strong.”

Minh Tuyet gives a smirk.

[Kitchen]

“We have to decide who get what room and…” Nhu Loan suggests as she sit down at the dinning table.

“I get master bedroom!” Bao Han interrupts; sticking out her tongue at Nhu Loan.

Nhu Loan cries, “That’s not fair. I wasn’t ready. We go again…”

Tu Quyen walks over from the fridge, “Minh Tuyet should get the master bedroom because…”

“Hell no we all pays equal amount of rent!” Bao Han interrupts.

“Remember that Minh Tuyet has a little sister that is also ‘living’ here.” Tu Quyen explains to Bao Han.

Bao Han folds her arm and grump, “Not fair, they have two peoples living and only one share of rent.”

“I’ll pay two shares if you want me too.” Minh Tuyet says in a sweet voice as she enters with Eddie which causes Bao Han to be scare.

Nhu Loan and Tu Quyen looks over at the embarrass Bao Han and laughs.

“You know I’m kidding right Minh Tuyet? You know I love you.” Bao Han says in a fake sweet voice as she stands up to hug Minh Tuyet.

Minh Tuyet smiles, “I know you’re kidding.”

“So how do you like the place?” Eddie asks.

“Great!” The four ladies say in unison.

Bao Han walks over to the window and point outside to the path of dead birds, “Except for that.”
Eddie rolls her eyes and says in a low tone, “You should go clean it yourself.”

“What was that?” Bao Han look over at Eddie with evil eyes.

“Nothing I got to go now.” Eddie hurriedly walks off leaving her key at a table near by.

“Thanks for the help… Idiot!” Minh Tuyet screams with a soft ‘idiot’ at the end which causes the other to laugh.

Tu Quyen walks over by Minh Tuyet’s side and asks, “Why do you have to act so sweet and innocent around others.”

“I have learned from the past.” Minh Tuyet frowns.

“Whatever. You are so fake in front of others. Be like me, I tell what is on my mind.” Bao Han smile.

Nhu Loan and Tu Quyen bust out laughing, “That’s why no one likes you. Only we can handle someone so full of their self.”

Bao Han stands up and chase after the screaming Nhu Loan and Tu Quyen up the staircase leaving Minh Tuyet alone in the kitchen.

Behind a wall nearby Eddie stands, with the keys she had left behind, listening to what Minh Tuyet had said. Eddie quickly walks to the front door leaving quickly and quietly with a secret she can’t wait to announce. As Eddie close the front door standing inside was Minh Tuyet looking out at the only person outside this very own house that knows her secret.

“Do you think you can know my secrets that easily are you?” Minh Tuyet smirk a big huge devilish grin.

Suddenly she sees the shadow of the three on the door window coming closer to scare her. As soon as they were about to scare her she turn back and pour the cup of milk she was holding on their faces.

Whipping the milk off her face Bao Han madly announces, “That’s what we get for giving you the master bedroom?”

Minh Tuyet laughs and runs up the stair toward that one place where she can truly be safe; a place where she can express herself without being afraid that someone might know her dirty little secret. She closes the door behind her leaving the others outside screaming about getting her back.

“This place is huge.” Minh Tuyet laughs and jumps onto the humongous bed. Lying on the bed she begins thinking, “Van Quynh would love this place”. As the mention of her little sister’s name she sat up in shock, “I forgot her!”

Minh Tuyet runs to the door as the moment the door was open a bowl of milk splash onto her face. The others runs off full of laughter, “We got you now!”

“I’ll get you back, double.” Minh Tuyet mumbles madly.

Minh Tuyet trips herself down the stair, grab her keys and out the door she goes. She sees an old lady about to get into a taxi. Faster and faster she runs until she reaches the taxi, pushing the old lady to the ground Minh Tuyet jumps into the taxi, “You snooze you lose.” She laughs as she grabs the door to close it when a young girl holds it back making Minh Tuyet mad.

“Drive taxi! I have to go pick up my little sister.” Minh Tuyet screams in anger.

“You don’t have to go pick her up.” The girl rolls her eye.

“Yes I do…” Minh Tuyet screams. She began to stutter her words the moment she sees her own sister, Van Quynh, standing at the taxi’s door.

Van Quynh helps the old lady up, “How could you do this to an old lady?”

“My back hurt so much, I need to go to the hospital.” The old lady lies.

“Please forgive my sister; she just wanted to come pick me up.” Van Quynh apologizes.

The old lady looks shock, “How can you two be sister?”

“What do you mean?” Minh Tuyet screams but stops when she sees Van Quynh looking at her with shame. “I mean are you ok Mrs.?”

“Mrs. Khanh Ly.” The old lady smiles at Minh Tuyet.

“What are you still doing in the taxi?” Van Quynh grunt as she helps Khanh Ly into the taxi.

Khanh Ly smiles at Minh Tuyet as she passes by and in a low tone she whisper, “You owe me.”

Minh Tuyet looks back at Khanh Ly in rage wishing she could hurt the lady. The sisters begins to walks toward their new home as the taxi drives off leaving Wisteria Lane.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to do that. You know me. Talk to me.” Minh Tuyet begs.

“No I don’t know you at all. When did you turn into that?” Van Quynh points to the sidewalk.

“I just wanted to go pick you up.” Minh Tuyet explains.

“By hurting someone else?” Van Quynh screams and begins to cry.

Minh Tuyet hugs Van Quynh, “I’m sorry.”

Van Quynh pushes Minh Tuyet away and runs toward the house, but stop. Minh Tuyet walks toward the right house and take out the key to open the door. The moment they step into the house Van Quynh headed toward the staircase.

“Where is my room?” Van Quynh asks.

Minh Tuyet looks over at her sister who is in tears, “You’re sharing a room with me.”

“I ask ‘where’.” Van Quynh is frustrated.

“Up the stair to your right.” Minh Tuyet frowns.

Van Quynh runs up the stair pushing Tu Quyen to the side as she passes by.

“Ouch!” Tu Quyen screams.

Minh Tuyet walks over to Tu Quyen’s side, “That’s Van Quynh, I can never get her to talk to me.”

“It’s Ok. You’ll get to her someday.” Tu Quyen comforts.

Minh Tuyet breaks down crying as she hugs Tu Quyen, “Sometimes I just want to give up, I can’t do this anymore.”

“You’ll survive. You still have Bao Han, Nhu Loan, and I. We will never give up on you so neither should you.” Tu Quyen wipes off the tear on Minh Tuyet’s cheeks.

That night at Wisteria Lane everyone in the neighborhood was in bed planning for the next day. The housewives were planning about what to cook, what to clean, and what a housewife should do the next day. The only exceptions are the four beauties, Van Quynh and Eddie. Either they are planning for what to do the next morning, where to go shopping, maybe they might plans to tell everyone about a secret they had just discover that day or plans how to make the person with the secret disappear. Seem like everyone is in their comfort zone or are they?

[Wisteria Lane]

In ancient china there are true stories about four legend beauties – even too beautiful to be true. With one look the most gorgeous fishes would sink, the most elegant birds would fall, the fullest moon would hide itself, and even the most beautiful flowers would feel shame. These ancient beauties brought their kingdoms and dynasties to ruin and they all ended in tragedy. To this day there has never been another addition to the four beauties. However; on the quiet street of Wisteria Lane lays four beauties of it’s own with Susan Mayer, Bree Van De Kamp, Lynette Scavo, and Gabriella Solis. They indeed have amazing grace and beauty but it’s time for them to pack their bag and leave the neighborhood because another patch of beauties are moving in.

“I would never leave this neighborhood, but there are just too many unhappy memories here.” Susan Mayer sighs.

“Tell me about it.” Gabriella says as she raises her cup of wine.

The four ladies of Wisteria Lane looks around and sigh at the place they use to call home and their eyes began to swell with tears.

“I will miss you guys so much,” cries Lynette as she hugs each one of the ladies.

Bree straighten up her suit and dry her tear and exclaim, “Time to leave girls.”

As the ladies turn to head for their taxi a familiar voice from behind scream for them to stop at their track.

“Are you going to leave without saying good-bye to this long friend are you?” Eddie says with her hand folded together.

“We try coming over to your house but no one was home.” Explain Susan.

“Well it’s because I just sold Gabby’ house to four new owners … only thing left is to sell mine and I’ll be out of this neighborhood.” Says Eddie as she gave Gabriella an envelope.

The other looks at Gabriella in shock.

“That fast? It better be a great price.” Scream Gabriella as she steps forwards – close enough that she was face to face with Eddie.

Eddie back off a little and explained, “Don’t worry the price was very good. I guarantee you will like what you see in this envelope.”

Gabriella opens the envelope quickly and a big grin starts to form on her face making the other ladies peaks over.

“The price is great. Who is the new owner?” Susan asks.

Eddie turns the other way and pointed at an incoming taxi, “That.”

All the housewives look at amazement as the yellow door of the taxi fling open. A gorgeous, long, and smooth feet step slowly out of the taxi. Slowly she steps out of the taxi and sees it drives off. Standing at the corner was a beautiful, slender, and beautiful woman with a suitcase behind her. She was in a dazzling, summer breeze dress with the color of summers. As she begins to walk birds started falling from the skies behind her paths. All of a sudden the woman stops at her track, gave an amazing pose, flicks her long smooth hair and out of no where a bird fell straight down from above and hit her on the head.

“Ouch!” The woman screams in anger and look back; then she notices all the dead birds behind her path. “Why are there so many dead birds in this neighborhood?”

The woman headed toward Eddie and the housewives as soon as she notices them standing in the street. As she gets closer and closer the housewives moves backs a little in fear. The woman stops at her track; flips open her purse, toke out a mirror and check up on herself – which made the housewives flinch at the reflection of the sun.

She abruptly sticks out her hand for a handshake; which made the housewives flinch backward, “Hi! My name is Bao Han.”

“Welcome to Wisteria Lane. My name is Susan Mayer and this is Bree Van De Kamp, Lynette Scavo, and Gabriella Solis.” Susan introduce as she pointed to each of the housewives.

“This is the most recent owner of the house that you and your friends have brought.” Eddie says with pride as she pointed at Gabriella.

“This neighborhood seems like a great place to live in, but the only problem is ‘that’.” Bao Han pointed at the trail of dead birds.

Gabriella looks at the housewives in amazement, “We don’t usually have dead birds lying around until you came.”

“So now you’re blaming it on me?” Bao Han scream in anger.

Susan defends, “Gabby doesn’t mean that…”

“It’s not my fault I’m this gorgeous.” Bao Han interrupts as she flicks her long slick hair in Susan face and winks at Gabriella.

Gabriella looks piss and begins to take off her shoes when Eddie stops her, “On better notes, when will the other three be moving in?”

“What do you mean others?” Gabriella is in shock.

“They should be here any moment now.” Bao Han says as a yellow taxi turn into the neighborhood.

“Great more of ‘them’?” Lynette empathize ‘them’ as she rolls her eyes.

The taxi came to a stop and three doors flung open with three gorgeous women stepping out of the car very slowly. A boy driving by in a motorcycle was lost in the beauties and hit straight into a mail box. The three began walking down the street as though it was a model runway; their hairs float endlessly in the air. Suddenly one of the ladies trips over on a rock and knocks the other onto a flower garden, within an instance all the flowers began to plump down and die.

“What the…” Bree is stun.

“Tell me about it.” Susan added.

The three ladies got back up on their feet, flick the dead flower off their summer dress and headed toward Bao Han and the housewives. Even with dirt and grass stain on their faces, they seem to still look so beautiful. One of the lady wink at a boy that was selling lemonade and he fell straight onto the ground.

“Gabby we meet again?” Nhu Loan stares at her up and down.

“You two know each other?” Eddie is surprise.

Gabriella folds her arm, “We are models...”

“We don’t just know each other, but we were rivals back in the days.” Nhu Loan interrupts.

“Enough about you two lives. This is the other three owner of your house Nhu Loan, Tu Quyen and Minh Tuyet.” Eddie introduces.

“Glad to meet you.” Tu Quyen says as she shakes the housewives hands.

Bree sniff the air and asks, “What is that amazing sweet scent?”

“Sorry that’s me.” Minh Tuyet admits with her sweet and soft voice.

“How can you do that?” Bree is amaze.

Minh Tuyet is embarrass, “I made the perfume myself.”

Bree was about to ask more question when Eddie interrupts, “Aren’t you suppose to be on your way now ladies?”

“Oh no! Mike is waiting for me at the airport. We are leaving for Paris today.” Susan screams as she clumsily grabs her suitcase.

“We should be leaving now. Glad to meet you ladies. I hope you the best in this neighborhood.” Lynette smirks.

As the four housewives pack their belongings and headed for the taxi the new beauties headed for their soon to be call home.

“Someone needs to clean up that mess.” Bao Han scream at the trial of dead birds as she runs to catch up with the others.

No matter if you are leaving or moving in there are always troubles in this quiet neighborhood of Wisteria Lane.

“Seem like this neighborhood can never have peace and quiet.” A woman says quietly as she close the blind of her window.
