Mia invites Matmat to attend her book signing event, hoping that Patrick will take him there. At the event, Patrick lets Matmat fall in line by himself so he can avoid Mia. However, while waiting, Matmat gets in trouble after seeing a little girl wearing a dinosaur outfit. Patrick jumps in to defend his brother, while Mia has a word with the girl's distraught parents.

Patrick calms Mia down with the butterfly hug technique. An exchange about Patrick distancing himself from Mia makes him reflect on his past. After another PTSD episode of Matmat regarding the butterflies, Patrick and his brother return to Maravida, where the incident with their mother happened. He also takes a job at the OK Hospital, where Mia's father is currently confined.

After being impressed by Matthew's illustration skills during their first meeting, Anok advises Patrick to be patient with his brother.

A new patient brings life to the party at OK Hospital, until his stay quickly stirs trouble for the hospital staff.

Mia takes Junjun out of the hospital and brings him to his father's campaign, where he reveals the painful truth about his family. His story triggers memories of Patrick's difficult childhood and his strained relationship with his mother, who pushed him to care for Matthew at a young age. Shaken by the parallels, Patrick comes to a realization and asks Mia to be part of it.

Mia runs into Matthew at the hospital and invites him to spend time together, hoping to lure Patrick. When Patrick shows up, he lashes out at Mia and scolds Matthew, scaring his brother away. Later, Mia is attacked by Samuel and leaves dejected, a sight that unsettles Patrick as he struggles to choose between making up with Matthew or going after her.

Patrick tries to make amends with Matthew after scolding him, but a clumsy lie infuriates Matthew. This results in the two of them sleeping separately, which benefits Patrick, who keeps mum about Mia staying overnight in their room. The next day, Gemma finds out about Mia's stay, and the ensuing confrontation alarms Li, Jason, and Matmat.

Mia convinces Matmat to not only be the illustrator for her new book but also to move in with her at the mansion. Despite Patrick's protests, Matmat insists that he wants to accept the offer.
