We try our best to hold it together as we discuss the episode of Gap that neither one of us could bear to rewatch until now. Khun Sam is stuck in the middle of her grandmother and Mon, having to decide if she will continue the path of dutiful granddaughter or walk away from her family at a shot for true happiness with Mon.

We witness Mon get a crash course on the side of Khun Sam's life she's never really considered. Not only does Mon meet Sam's estranged sister, Neung, she also gets an unexpected visit from Grandmother that has her questioning if it's the right thing to stay with Khun Sam. We are frustrated with Mon's conflict avoidance that has her running away from Khun Sam's home, even if we can understand it; and we applaud how far Khun Sam has come when she shows up at Mon's house to reassure her that they can get through this - even if this, is her own grandmother, the ultimate boss.

This finale of Gap the Series has our emotions on a rollercoaster, but honestly can that even compare to the turmoil Khun Sam must be experiencing. Grandmother's failing health has pulled her back in to agree to marry Kirk and Mon, the only person who actually puts Sam first, is trying to move on and GO TO ENGLAND. We struggle with understanding Grandmother's motivations while we don't accept her actions until she finally releases Khun Sam from the promise that keeps her bound to Grandmother's control. It's a race to the airport to stop Mon and we melt at the reunion before we devolve into complete tears at their beautiful wedding.
