Synopsis[]

Eugene sees that there are many posts about the treaty between Cheongang and the Union, and wonders if Ben is going to be okay. He thinks back to his project for the competition and knows that the deadline is coming up fast.

Minsu Gong steals his math textbook and says his friend next door needs to borrow it. Eugene recalls something similar happening in middle school when a bully stole his PE uniform, and the bully beat Eugene up when he spoke up. Eugene doesn’t want to show his weak side to his friends. He thinks everyone in the gang is amazing, but he feels like he doesn’t belong.

Gray snaps Eugene out of his thoughts and reminds him that it’s time for music class. He asks if something is wrong but Eugene denies it. Minsu asks Gray if he can sit next to him, and Gray allows him because there is no assigned seating. Eugene feels left out again when Minsu tries to make small talk with Gray.

After school, Gray asks what Eugene is thinking about that made him so distracted today, but Eugene says it’s nothing to worry about. They go to the cyber cafe so Gray can help Eugene with his project before they head to cram school.

At the cyber cafe, Eugene prints out his project proposal. All he has to do is get the documents ready and apply the samples. He shows Gray his prototype. Gray reminds Eugene that they need to test it within the approved area and take a photo. Eugene says he thought he’d try it where it’s actually needed, so he got permission to test it near his aunt’s vet clinic.

Eugene mentions that it’s weird how the other stores didn’t like it. Gray says that they should be glad that it’s brighter and asks why they didn’t like it. Eugene says he doesn’t know and none of the store owners he used to know were there. Gray searches up the address of the vet and prints out a list of building owners around the area from real estate registries.

Gray tells Eugene that the redevelopment projects are suspicious because Chungil Lee’s name keeps on coming up, and he keeps on buying up all the buildings for pennies. They both recognize the guy looking similar to Eunjang’s new director and that their names are similar. Gray recalls that in his final year of middle school, he overheard some business owners in Banpo sold their businesses for cheap but later the prices got higher. Gray says to Eugene to ask if his aunt has been getting any offers lately to sell her clinic.

Eugene’s aunt, Dr. Kim, is at the restaurant next door and talking with Granny. Granny tells Dr. Kim that the store across the street also closed down and everyone else is selling.  She has dedicated her entire life to her store and the realtors say the price is going to keep dropping. Dr. Kim receives a call from Eugene and confirms that Chungil Lee offered to buy her clinic. Gray tells Eugene to tell her to not sell.
