In episode 8 of “Spacetime”, Linh was upset because his arm was broken due to Huy’s fault. At this time, Huy revealed that Mien was the one who used the snake to scare Linh.
At this time, Linh was sick and sweating from stomach pain. When he saw the snake, Linh ran and tripped, resulting in a broken arm.
Seeing Linh injured, Mien felt guilty for joking too much. However, the two still argued and blamed each other for what had happened.
The 12th Regiment of Lieutenant Colonel Le Nguyen Dai (Manh Truong) was commended for overcoming hardships and providing timely rescue and relief to help people overcome floods and epidemics. The units received gifts from the military region chief along with deep words of encouragement.
Fortunately, there were no casualties after the epidemic. Dai returned to the regiment and felt secure calling his father. His father supported his decision to open a field hospital to save people in time, even though it was not according to procedure.
In another development, Mien and Thu are worried that Dai will be punished by his superiors. Mien thinks that Thu and Dai should move towards a serious relationship and not keep their distance from each other. "If Dai is not proactive, you should boldly move forward. If you are shy, let me pass on the message to you," Mien urged.
The commander of the 12th Regiment acknowledged and praised the rescue work, but criticized Dai for arbitrarily setting up a field hospital despite the lack of medical staff and medical supplies. Dai was asked to review, explain and report on the incident.
At this time, Thu decided to express her feelings to Dai, hoping that he would reciprocate her feelings so that they could become a couple. However, Dai said that he had known for a long time that she had feelings for him, and he really appreciated that.
Dai confided to Thu about the reason he refused: “I used to have a girlfriend, and I also intended to go further. But she couldn’t overcome the barrier. My father is a veteran, I have two older sisters and both died early from toxic chemicals. I am no exception. A woman’s complete happiness is to be a wife and a mother.”
At the end of episode 8, Dai was transferred to the 80th Regiment, which is in charge of economics. Even though he wanted to stay with the 12th Regiment, Dai still had to obey orders from his superiors.
In the preview of episode 9, Dai's father is sad because Dai was transferred to another unit. He said that his two daughters died early due to the consequences of their father, because of the fierce war, leaving many consequences. Dai's father fought bravely with his comrades, with strong ideals and beliefs.
Mien was also worried because Dai Tu, the regimental commander of the training unit, became the deputy economic group leader. Group 80 was still stationed at a remote border with difficult conditions.
Episode 9 "Spacetime" airs at 9:00 p.m. on December 11 on VTV1.
