Episode synopsis
TUNG falls from a cliff and crashes with FU, accidentally his spirit flings into FU’s body. When TUNG awakes, everybody finds him speaking incoherently that he must be under some mental aberration. TUNG tries to play his magic in front of everybody but then he has lost his valuable bag and all magic power. When knowing from KWAI that FU used to be a bad and nasty guy, with his identity TUNG decides to help FU turn over a new leaf. FOOK wants to gamble with FU, with his magic power he wins tremendously. FU gives YUK all the money and reveals that he owns a pair of perspective eyes. YUK wants to make use of his special power and get the grocery shop back but KWAI objects. YUK wants KWAI to collect all the loans that the villagers once owed him. Yet YUK is mad to see what KWAI has collected from KWAN YAN is only a piece of uncultivated land.
About The Winter Melon Tale
Fan Tung (Liu Kai Chi) is one of the four deities under the Stove God. He has offended the Queen Mother of the West of being ravenous and gets imprisoned for 500 years in the winter melon. By chance Tin Dai Kwai (Sunny Chan) and his wife Chung Bik Yuk (Louisa So) free him from constraint. Tung gets flattened by Kwai's older brother Tin Tai Fu (also played by Liu Kai Chi) accidentally and his spirit enters Fu's body inexplicably while losing all his instincts. Tung starts living in Kwai's house and getting closer to the family. Yuk finds Tung suspicious and she tries to unmask him by all means. Having failed in his attempt to return to Heaven, Tung becomes reliant on the help of six little deities who assimilated his instincts released from the melon, and since then Tung is aware of the fickleness of human nature.
