Episode synopsis
SUN and YAU take SHUI to the hut in the garden. Later YAU feeds SHUI with rice porridge, and they just manage to spend a nice time together in the moonlight. MAN goes to see YIN in her bedroom, and gives her a good telling-off for making false statements during the questioning. MAN can tell that YIN is still holding a grudge against him, although he must point out that it is very childish and stupid of her to seek revenge like this. YIN revokes her previous statements and tells the truth in court. MAN finally manages to prove his innocence now that he has a strong alibi. SUN has been told that Sir TSANG has decided to withdraw his nomination of MAN for the Legco membership taking into account the intricacy of the assault case. FONG and YIP who are both in a bad mood get to have a drink together in the living room. Equally upset and disappointed, they start to confide in each other……
About Silver Spoon, Sterling Shackles
The 1930s Hong Kong is the time of the East and West cultural shock. Women started fighting for their rights and status, changing the 'men superior to women' image. Famous barrister Sir Arthur Chung studied in England and lives a British lifestyle, but inside he's actually a traditional Chinese man. He married several wives to show off his power and upper-class status. First wife Koo Sam-lan was a rich girl; second wife is former Qing dynasty princess Aisin Gioro Yee-yin; third wife came from a family that owned banks Yvonne Yik; fourth wife is a famous Peking opera singer Hong Tsz-kwan; and the fifth wife Chui Dan-dan, a vanity admiring woman. Because Sir Arthur Chung is a strict and authoritarian father, his two sons Charles Chung and Jimmy Chung eventually start going against him. This wealthy and prominent family may seem warm on the surface, but in reality, they are scattered and disunited.
