DG comes in and asks what kind of candy kills someone and JG yells that it was a menthol! he runs out and DG tells him to be mad at the menthol, not him.
then DG tells YA that she should go to patisserie school. She doesnt’ have to pay for it because they have support for single moms and he filled out all the paperwork for her. YA hugs DG and his face flushes. Everyone noties this and they think that DG must have some attachment to YA after spending so much time with her. But DG says it isn’t it and he runs off.
The other two turn the station since their friend is dead in it.
Meanwhile, DG goes to the bathroom and wonders what is going on with himself.

PREVIEW
Thank you for the recap and introducing me to this show. It is hilarious.
Lee Yi Kyung (JG) is such a great actor! The episode made me lol as usual, but I just about DIED at the start of the strip show scene as JG was about to start dancing and he sorta makes this awkward yet aggressive laughing sound “HA!” to pump himself up and that just killed me…omg…so funny! This drama is such a nice break after a tough day!
Thanks for your work on this drama!!!!!!!!
