Show Summary
The cute life lesson at the beginning of the episode shows the boys serving a day of their army reserve service and being jerk to an enlisted private serving his mandatory two years. Years later, they find out that the kid they were a jerk to is the child of an important potential client. Lesson: Be nice to people, you don't know who they might be in the future.
The episode starts with Childhood Sweetheart (Kim Eun Hee) and Do Jin meeting. We find out that Childhood Sweetheart tried to introduce him to their secret son eight years ago, but Do Jin had an unreliable amnesia attack at the time and failed to make the meeting. He has no recollection of the day. At Yoon's law office, Do Jin and Childhood Sweetheart run into Seo Yi Soo. Do Jin introduces Childhood Sweetheart as an "ex-girlfriend" and Seo Yi Soo as "a woman he recently lost". Seo Yi Soo corrects him and introduces her as "a woman he recently dumped". At the law office, Yoon shows them the results of the paternity test. Now everyone in the series knows Colin is Do Jin's son.
Jung Rok gathers Yoon and Tae San to brainstorm ways to get Seo Yi Soo and Do Jin back together. They arrange an "accidental" meeting at the coffee shop. The estranged couple realize it's a set up and they leave without really talking. Later, Seo Yi Soo calls Do Jin out and tells him that he had promised to love her at least until the end of the month. She tells him he has to come out whenever she calls him over the next month, until she is tired of seeing him and ready to break up. They go on a few awkward non-dates, such as attending a movie but sitting across the isle from each other silently, staring at each other from across the street at a stoplight, etc.
It totally seemed like they were going in the direction of "cute, continuous exposure to each other will lead to the couple getting back together". However, at the last "date" of the episode, Seo Yi Soo receives a call from her mother. Do Jin asks about it and she snaps, telling him she didn't give him permission to speak. When she goes to leave, he grabs her hand and she yells that she's going to see her mother, who abandoned her for 20 years to raise someone else's child. She asks Do Jin "Do you want to come along and get tips from her," bitchily referencing the fact that he didn't know about his own child for 19 years. So instead of the "cute resolution" approach, she's apparently going back towards "bitch, overblown reactions to a situation outside of both of their control". *sigh*
On the Se Ra + Tae Sun front, Se Ra sees Me Ah Ri driving her car, which Min Sook is supposed to have as a deposit for the loan. Se Ra realizes that Tae Sun must have had the car. She confronts Min Sook for telling Tae Sun about the loan. Min Sook explains that she didn't tell him, he just found out through other means. She gave him the car when he had paid off Se Ra's debt. Min Sook explains she was preserving Tae Sun's pride over Se Ra's own.
On the Yoon + Me Ah Ri front, Me Ah Ri brings Yoon a gift. He refuses it and she gets upset as always. Yoon lectures that they can never be together without destroying his friendship with Tae Sun--a friendship that has lasted longer than Me Ah Ri has been alive. Me Ah Ri leaves and gets drunk alone in the middle of the day at a karaoke bar. Her brother comes to pick her up and rages about how he'll send her away and/or end his friendship with Yoon if she continues to act this way.
On the Min Sook + Jung Rok front, you don't see the couple interact at all in this episode.
On the Colin front, we see that his mother (Childhood Sweetheart) returns to Japan but he decides to stay in Korea for a while more.

Nothing worth clipping out. It's so far into the series that anyone would be spoiled or confused seeing things without context.
