The finale starts right back where we left off, with Fai, Din, Mod Daeng and Rose fleeing the farm, and running straight into Wasu himself, who brought Kaew along and forces Din to choose who gets shot – Rose or Kaew. First Mod Daeng intervenes, but is quickly tossed aside by Wasu, then Kaew tries to grab the gun as Din & Co. are fleeing again. But Wasu gets a shot out first and Kaew collapses, right as the police have caught up to them, forcing Wasu to flee, leaving Kaew behind. Wasu flees a little further but get caught by Lom, who shoots and incapacitates him when he’s missing Lom. Back at the hospital, Kla arrives as they’re waiting for news on Kaew, he is in fear that his daughter might not make it – and he apologizes to Din for what she had to go through with Kaew, but Din forgives Kaew for everything. The doctor comes out to tell them that the operation went well, but that Kaew isn’t out of danger yet, as they need to monitor her for internal bleeding. Din tries to comfort Kla as Rose just looks stunned. Later, Mod Daeng joins Rose; Mod Daeng is fine and has only suffered a little bruise on the head from her struggle with Wasu, but Rose can’t escape the feeling that everyone had to suffer because of her, but Mod Daeng blames it all on Wasu, who hopefully will die in the operating room. But Rose can’t help it, she feels responsible for Din, Kaew and Mod Daeng putting their live on the line because of her. Lom comes to the hospital to get Din home, but she won’t leave before Kaew is alright. She then asks about Wasu, and Lom shows them that he’s as angry as ever, chained to his hospital bed and vowing for revenge, but Lom’s cut his spinal cord, and he will never be able to walk again. Din also asks about Wasupol but Lom says they have found a corpse near the border that is probably Wasupol, and his business contacts have obviously tried to get rid of him after he ceased to be useful. Lom thinks that Din will have to deal with the authorities for some time to come because of Wasu, and Fai says she will return home once all is settled. Lom wants to know where Rose is, but she went to see fer father. The doctor recommends Thip relocating to Bangkok for better treatment options, and Rose promises to think about it. Mod Daeng also want to go to the capital, but Rose doesn’t recall admitting they will take her with them. Mod Daeng argues that she will help Thip recovering, as Rose already has someone to take care of her, but claims it’s not Din’s job to do that, she was only a temporary caretaker for her, and that time is over. After 11 minutes, Rose and Din talk for the first time when Rose brings her a coffee, Kaew is safe now, Din reports, but Din will be busy for a while with Kaew in the hospital and the police, and stepping in for Kaew and Kla at the farm. She’ll asks Fai to keep her company, but Rose says not to worry about her. Din wants to know about Thip, but Rose reports only that he’s quite stable and there’s nothing to worry about. Then, they return home, hand in hand. But Rose remains pensive, and as Mod Daeng asks her if she hasn’t told Din about Bangkok yet, she denies it, not knowing how to tell her; she’s afraid that she will think of it as her leaving her. But Mod Daeng argues that she wouldn’t have to be a burden anymore, either. Rose promises to talk to her the next day. The next day, Rose get interrupted by a phone call trying to talk to Din, Kla reports the Kaew has woken up and they both rush to the hospital. Kaew tries to apologize to Din, but Din doesn’t let her placing all the blame on Wasu, and pleading with her to get better. Rose just stands there, having just decided something… …and she agrees with his doctor to take Thip to Bangkok, he will make the arrangements for the transfer. Thip asks her if she’s sure about that, but Rose thinks she’s troubled her enough already. Back at home, Rose reports that she’s moving her father to Bangkok für better treatment, says goodbye to Din, and thanks her for taking care of her. Din wants to know when she’s leaving as Rose tells her as soon as possible. Why didn’t she tell her earlier, Din asks, but Din has a lot on her plate, Rose argues, and she can make that decision on her own as a grown-up. Din vows to go with her, and asks her to wait until she has everything settled, but Rose wonders when will that be, and argues that they both have to face serious matter to focus on, and they are only temporarily separating for that, not forever, and she promises to return to Chiang Rai once her father is fully recovered – but while they are apart, they should revisit their own heart and ask themselves whether this love they have will last long enough to be True Love. If she still is the person in her heart, she can return the wedding ring to her when she comes back, she claims while giving her ring back to her, which Din only reluctantly accepts. Then, Rose leaves. Next, we see Din walking sullenly through the farm thinking about Rose, tending to dried-up roses and eating alone, while Rose, Thip and Mod Daeng relocating to a house in Bangkok, and starting treatment for Thip. But Rose is also feeling lonely being apart from Din. Then, Kla and Kaew tell Din that they’ll be leaving for Chiang Rai, with Kaew taking a small job there and Kla retiring; she wishes them good luck for their new beginning and Kla thanks her for being always kind to her. Kaew also wants her to apologize to Rose on her behalf, and Din tell her not to worry about that, will help her with anything if necessary and promises them to always have a home at Saen Rak. Fai returns to Saen Rak and claims that Din looks as gloomy as Lom told her; she has come to watch the face of someone who just got dumped, she claims. She argues that if she misses her that much, she should just go to her, but Din doesn’t even know where she is right now, but Lom has found out her address in Bangkok, Fai claims. Meanwhile, Rose is tending to a few Roses while in Bangkok. Looking moody, a fact that doesn’t escape Thip’s attention, and Mod Daeng adds that since moving to Bangkok, she hasn’t seen Rose smile once, she must miss Din that badly. Thip wants to know what happened between Rose and Din while he was out, and request that Mod Daeng tells him everything (well, she doesn’t _know_ everything, but she is the biggest Rose/Din shipper on the planet… 😉) At night, Thip asks Rose whether Rose and Din fought, which she denies several times. Then, why doesn’t she get in touch with her, he asks. But Rose wants to give her time to deal with her own life, and the promise that Rose gave to Thip has expired. He then directly asks her if she loves Din, and she confirms it. So, is she going to let it end like this, he wonders. Rose doesn’t answer but later steps onto the balcony, remember their separation and admitting that she misses Rose so much. And we see that Din has parked in front of her house with tears in her eyes. The next day, there are a lot of northern dishes at the breakfast table, and Mod Daeng claims to have won the lottery and decided to treat them. Rose is suspicious but eats with them anyway. Outside, there is a new car, and Thip claims it’s from a friend to use for driving to a from the hospital. Inside, Din thanks Mod Daeng for cooperating with this charade, but Mod Daeng wants to know how long is Din going to keep playing hide-and-seek with Rose, why can’t they just clear the air, they miss each other so much. Din is giving her time and space to deal with Thip’s recovery – but Mod Daeng think they are just wasting time. Mod Daeng claims that Din has brought so much food and flowers that Rose will be suspicious, but Din argues that she can be in Bangkok only for two days a week, so she must do whatever she can for her. But Mod Daeng argues that she can’t win the lottery every week, and Din tells her that a friend of Thip has visited (that excuse was also already used… ) But then, Rose and Thip return earlier than expected, forcing Din to quickly hide. Rose find the food on the table and the roses, and Mod Daeng lies that a relative visited and brought this along with her. Rose is suspicious, searches the house, and eventually finds Din hiding in a closet. While they are sitting at the river, Din reports that Rose’s farm is doing well with all the roses in bloom, but Rose wants to know if she has that much free time to visit Bangkok. She confirm it, with Wasu’s case being over, she has tended to the unfinished works at the farm, and even hired replacements for Kla and Kaew. And she not-so-subtly show her that she is still wearing her wedding ring. From now on, she will visit Bangkok every week she claims as the city is only a few minutes away (actually, it’s more than 700 kilometers) and claims that True Love conquers miles. She’ll come to say “I love you” every Saturday. But Rose doesn’t want her to go, not because she doesn’t care for her, but because she doesn’t want her to take the trip for nothing – as she is moving back to Chiang Rai with her dad. They hug, share a few kisses, and are happy to reunite. Later, Thip thanks her for taking care of Rose and the farm while he was incapacitated, and Din thanks her for taking care of her back when her dad passed away, and claims he was like a father to her. Thip proposes to become her father-in-law, astonishing Din and Rose, but he’s fine with it, he claims, as they already got married once. Rose explains that this was a fake marriage. But he argues that they should get married for real, then – this time with him present. But Rose hasn’t agreed to go back yet, and pleads with him to let her play hard to get for a while. And Din confesses that earlier Rose gave her a kiss on the cheek, which prompts Rose to say she shouldn’t be a snitch. 😊 They return to Chomchan farm, and Thip asks her if she going to reconcile with Din, and Rose wonders if she told him to ask her that. But Thip claims it not good for lovers to stay estranged for too long, it’s a waste of time, he thought she would have moved to Saen Rak by now. But Rose claims that Din hasn’t proposed to her yet. But then, Mod Daeng tells her that someone has trespassed onto their land – but it’s Din she soon knows, and Din proposed to her again at the place they met 20 years ago as children, and claiming their love is not a sudden thing, but two decades in the making. She asks her for a chance to prove that 20 years from now, or even longer than that, she’ll love only Rose, and that will never change. And she give her the teddy she had as a kid back which now wears a bridal gown and carries her ring, and asks her to marry her again, and this time for real. Rose of course accepts this proposal. Then, it’s the wedding, and Thip brings his daughter to Din and gives her away, and this time forever. They exchange their old rings again, and this time Din not only doesn’t faint afterwards, but kisses her passionately. Then Rose tosses her bouquet and Mod Daeng wants to catch it but Lom deflects the bouquet and it lands in Nam’s lap who still sits in her place astonished. She looks confuses by her cousins congratulate her anyway. Din even calls her bride-to-be when they cheer later on. Lom thinks that if Nam ever gets married, she has to thank her for that as she was the one bringing Rose and Din together. Nam tells Fai and Lom to stop arguing or Din will miss her wedding night, which get Rose and Din to quickly head for the house… …to passionately consummate their marriage, with both Rose and Din taking their turns. The final scene of the series show Din and Rose on top of a jeep having a picking and thinking about merging their two farms and naming it “Chomrak”, the first part coming from Roses farm because Din is down bad for Rose. Rose thanks Din for being the fertile ground for this Rose, and promises to be by her side for the rest of her life. They kiss a few more times, and that’s where “The Earth” ends. ___ This was the longest episode of “The Earth” and also the one with the least bad sh*t happening. And Din and Rose used the hour to come to terms with their real feelings now that the storm had passed that came from the vineyard. Rose took time to realize she loved Rose for real whereas Din hand always loved Rose but (perhaps too) patiently waited for her to return. In the novel, she made more than one trip to Bangkok, and Thip at first inquired about their love separately, but the rest is almost 100% book-accurate without major differences, perhaps apart from Kaew and Kla attending the second wedding and Mod Daeng getting a boyfriend. It was a light, but deserved end to the shenanigans. I’m looking forward to “The Water” and “The Air”, two novels I liked even more. I’m giving “The Earth” an 8.5/10 or a “B+” in U.S. letter grades.
