For the first time probably in his entire life Hyun Soo gets praise from his father as Big Daddy lauds Yoo Na's behavior at Grandma's funeral and credits Hyun Soo for her transformation. (Hyun Tae, honey, you need to take that girly sweater off. Men don't wear sweaters with great big roses on their chests.) But then Big Daddy goes a little too far when he suggests they throw a party to show everyone the fact that Yoo Na isn't the bitch they all think she is. (Say what you will, I miss Yoo Na. Where'd she go?)
Hyun Soo is wondering that himself as he interrogates a friend of his wife's (Yoo Na has friends??) to see if she knows anything. That friend sure is acting fishy. I bet she does know where Yoo Na is but she's not saying.
Young Ae is thinking back to an earlier fight she had with her son. She was offering to, well, basically buy Hyun Tae a better wife than Monghyun. I hope she also offered to buy a better sweater for him. In frustration Hyun Tae smashes a glass, cutting his hand to ribbons, and threatens to kill himself if Young Ae continues to embarrass him as she's been doing.
Young Ae breaks down and agrees to allow the marriage. Duk Hee wants to hurry things along and get the kids married by the end of the summer.
Hyun Soo attempts to tell his father the truth about Yoo Na but Big Daddy starts in again with the praise for how Hyun Soo whipped his wife into shape. That's shows the kind of work and initiative it takes to run the family company. Perhaps Big Daddy should start giving Hyun Soo more responsibility at work. Of course this stops the truth telling on Hyun Soo's part as all this is just what he wanted to hear from dear old Dad. Hyun Joon, wearing a little bit too much lipstick, does not like the direction things are going in.
Mong Hee's mother is starting to get a little bit of a big head now that Monghyun is marrying up. Mong Hee is still stuffing her face. How does Han Ji Hye not get fat from all her eating scenes?
Manager Yoon's big head follows her to the workplace. Good thing Young Ae is there to deflate her a bit. Young Ae gives Shim Duk a sizable amount of money to be used to buy the wedding gifts as Young Ae doesn't think Yoon's family has the ability to buy gifts worthy of the occasion.
After talking it over with the family, who advise to not use the money or they'll never hear the end of it from the other side, Shim Duk tries to return the check. Young Ae mentions how expensive the marital gifts could be. (A $20,000 blanket?! A $100,000 ring for the mother-in-law?! People of Korea, don't get married. You can't afford it. Live in sin.) There's that clown music again. Anyway, Young Ae pushes Shim Duk to take the money and use it because she doesn't want her son (or herself) to be embarrassed by the gifts bought by his wife's family. Shim Duk still has her pride and refuses the money, which pisses Young Ae off.
At another meeting, Seongeun asks Shim Duk to spend a mere $200,000 on marital gifts as Seongeun, being the second daughter-in-law, doesn't want to be shown up by the third daughter-in-law.
Hyun Soo returns to bug Mong Hee. He invites her out to lunch so she can once again stuff her face. I swear, instead of I Summon You, Gold this show should have been titled I Summon You, Food. I will say that's a lovely view outside the restaurant window. Hyun Soo softens Mong Hee up a bit at first by telling her how Big Daddy is treating him oh so much better lately thanks to her performance at the funeral. Then he goes in for the kill: will she pretend to be his wife one last time? Mong Hee says nein, nyet, nada, and other words that means nuh-uh. Hyun Soo then speaks for us all as he asks her to please not speak with her mouth full.
Under orders from his father, Hyun Joon invites his baby brother out for a drink so they can play nice together. It doesn't last long, ending with Hyun Tae tearing up the money Hyun Joon gave him to pay for the honeymoon.
Going over the family's finances, Shim Duk finds they can scrape together only $50,000. The shame. Shim Duk talks about mortgaging the house. Money matters lead to a loud fight between her and her husband. For once we get a very real scene about very real problems.
With this dark financial cloud hanging over her family, Mong Hee reaches out to Hyun Soo. She wants to work out a contract between them. She'll agree to pretend to be Yoo Na for at least a year and a half if he'll pay her $100,000 up front. Hyun Soo agrees but there is one condition: Mong Hee must truly transform into his wife. No more talking with her mouth full or dressing sloppy or acting like a buffoon, etc. She must be Yoo Na.
