Harmony Secret EP6 (REUPLOAD)

You should see their new series coming soon

I can't imagine how Ai felt hearing who is most likely her mother tell her, through the phone no less, that she never had a daughter. The way Ai's voice cracked telling Mae that she is fragile inside despite looking strong and put together almost made me tear up. I feel so bad for Ai, she did not have very good parents.

I noticed the cut as well as my recap was not matching up. :-) ____ The episode starts where we left off, by Ai taking the obvious route in the conversation with her father; she pretends she only got close to Mae because she wanted to find out Superior’s bidding number. Her father relents, then, reminding her again that Orienna must win the auction. Ai requests that whatever happens with Mae outside the bidding is to be left only to her, and her father accepts as long as she delivers. (Well, good luck, Ai – you will need it!) Later, Ai and Yam talk; Yam can’t help with Ai’s personal matters, but offers any help she can give. Ai’s claims it’s not that dramatic (isn’t it?), and Yam checks out G’s Instagram before blocking her. Ai asks what she does on her phone, and Yam says she’s checking out house and condos; because she wants a change of place; in a flashback, we see that the real reason is that she doesn’t want to be found should Ai’s father make good on his threat to tell her parents of her whereabouts. Then, Yam encounters a listing posted by Ai’s mother, Arunwalai, in the exact same spelling; Ai calls her on the phone and makes an appointment with her, not disclosing her identity. Then, she invites Mae to the two-day trip, not disclosing what it is about – and Mae accepts right away. In a scene exclusive to IQIYI and the uncut YouTube version, Mae scolds her father for working while “sick” (only we know that he’s faking his illness), and he says he can’t just sit still – he’s the owner for the Superior group. Mae asks for permission to go on a break for two days, claiming everything with the bidding is already in order, and her father let’s her go. Then, she hesitantly confesses she’s dating a woman, and her father is okay with that, too, as long as she treats her well. She smiles and tells her she loves him; he does the same. Then, Ai and May are on their way to the property, which is located at the beachside. At the location, Mae asks why they are there; Ai says they’re about to meet someone important and claims she wants for Mae to meet her. Ai contacts her mother, but she had to leave the country and can’t meet her, but she had left the keys to the property with the local caretaker. Ai asks when she will return, and she replies she can’t say for sure. Ai then confesses her identity, claiming to be her daughter – but the person on the other end claims she’s never had any daughter, and ends the phone call. They drive off, and we see that the phone call was answered from within the property, by a sobbing woman. Again, only for IQIYI and uncut YouTube viewers, Mae and Ai are strolling down the beach somewhere, and Mae tries to get Ai out of her funk by playing tag. She tells her that no matter what problems Ai is facing, she has to let them go for the moment and just keep moving forward. Ai nods in agreement, and they hug. Then, Ai comes clean about the reason for the trip, she wanted Mae to meet her mother, but it was just someone with the same name. She tells Mae that she hasn’t seen her mother in two decades and doesn’t even know why she left without a goodbye. Mae wonders whether Ai’s father has said why she left, but Ai replies that all he told her was to forget her. Ai had hoped he would step in to somehow make up for the fact that she grew up without a mother, but he never did, and so Ai became the woman she is today, always looking strong on the outside – even when she’s fragile inside, she says as her voice is breaking. But now, she has Maevika, Mae says – and Ai thanks her for it. In yet another IQIYI and uncut-only scene, Ai looks sullenly out of the bathtub at night as Mae joins her, just wanting to comfort her. Mae requests her to just stay still, she will make her happy. The next morning, Ai wakes up in bed with May holding hands. She carefully gets up without waking Mae, placing a kiss on her forehead as she leaves the bed and heads for the balcony. Mae’s iPad dings, and we see a flashback from earlier revealing that Ai saw Mae typing in her password; she unlocks the tablet and sees that Superior will bid 26 billion Baht – two billion more than Orienna. Mae wakes up, and the two of them hug on the balcony. Mae philosophizes how the relationship would be without any second thought, and Ai wonders if she is suspicious of Ai. A little, Mae confesses, but seeing the “real” Ai these last days, she is unwilling to hurt her and hopes the feeling is mutual. She receives a phone call from G who says something has happened – the press has learned of their relationship. In another short scene only for IQIYI and uncut YouTube, we see that Mae’s father gets the news as well, and initiates bribes and threats to limit the damage. Ai’s father gets the news as well and isn’t happy about it. Ai thinks this got leaked due to the bidding, and we get a flashback revealing Mae actually turned down Rachen, and he wasn’t too happy about it. Mae encounters Rachen at the resort where they are staying and decides to follow him. He’s meeting with Direk, who manages the bidding. Then Ai shows up, and Mae discloses what is going on; jointly they plan on eavesdropping on the conversation which they manage with the help of an employee. Rachen’s backup plan is to collude with Direk, however, we’re not privy of the details of the plan as the employee is ordered to leave. Mae comes clean about her dealings with Rachen, she wanted to know what his offer was. She wanted to win to get respect at her company, and to ease the load on her dad who is sick (well, he’s not really – but she doesn't know that). Ai asks why she rejected Rachen’s offer, then, and Mae claims because he wanted her to spy on Ai, and she already told her that she’s unwilling to hurt her like that. They have the recording proving Rachen’s and Direk’s collusion but leave it at that for now. Then, we get another POND’s product placement. In another IQIYI and uncut-exclusive scene, Mae returns as her father scolds G for not disclosing Mae’s dealings with Ai. Mae mentions that at first, she only contacted Ai to get ahead in the bidding process – but now, she loves her. Her father tells her to step down as the lead of the bidding and hand things over to him, as being both lovers and business rivals will surely hurt them, but Mae claims she’s already made an agreement with Ai, and is willing to go through with it, even as it may hurt her, because she wants to make her father proud. She pleads with him to give her the chance to see this through. They share a tearful hug. At talks with Yam on the phone as her father arrives. He wants to know whether she has got the number. Not yet, she lies. He reminds her that the deadline is almost upon them and wonders whether the risk of getting entangled with Mae is worth it. He suspects that her heart is holding her back. He warns her that if she fails, she’ll get nothing from him (ever) again. In a quick scene for IQIYI, we see a stressed Mae falling asleep to the sounds gathered from her listening device. The next day, she makes her case in front of her company’s board; she claims it’s just a friendship she has with Ai, but the boards members fear that the Greater may see this as collusion. Then, they should have evidence more solid than just a photo, Mae retorts. (Meanwhile, only for IQIYI, Ai is facing the same questions at the Orienna board meeting, and she fends this off as business tactics by rivals. Her father asks if that rival might be Superior, but Ai claims Mae is not that kind of person. Then, he dismisses the board meeting.) Ai’s father speaks with Yam and requests she does what her boss can’t; she’s close with G, after all, revealing he knows about that as well. He threatens to tell her parents of her whereabouts again. Later, Yam mopes at the bar; a flashback shows that Ai told her she already knows the bidding number, but is not able to use it because she loves Mae. Other flashbacks are shown detailing Ai’s care for Yam, and Yam’s care for G. Yam knocks on G apartment door, but gets no reply; she breaks down crying as she’s heading for the rooftop, dropping her bag. This get picked up by G moments later who then saves her from jumping off the building to her death. Yam claims this seemed like the best solution preventing her from having to hurt Ai, or G. In the final scene, an emotional Ai finds the bug placed by Mae in her condo. ___ Again, I must point out that all the questionable stuff that Mae, Ai and their fathers did are exclusive inventions for the TV show. Things escalated quickly this time and it wears on all of them, Yam is obviously affected the worst, but contrary to their claims, Mae and Ai are incredibly stressed as well. Shit will hit the fan next week, and the stakes couldn’t be higher for our central four, as both their business success and their private happiness will be at stake. This week, the IQIYI-exclusive scenes contained vital information as the cut YouTube version was a whole ten minutes shorter.
