Picking up from the cliffhanger at the end of part one, part two opens with Gallen, Roger, and Flora reeling from the tragic death of Kenix and Sunny.

And of course Kenix\'s long awaited death scene. At the end of part one viewers were left on the edge of their seat wondering: would she die? What would be her last words?

As a huge supporter of the love between her and Sunny, I was expecting her to say something along the lines of I am going to join Sunny now or something to that extent. But unfortunately, Kenix\'s death speech was awfully hasty and controversial and lacked mention of her beloved Sunny. Her exact words: I am happy to be with the one who loves me, and the one I love. I took it to mean that the one she loves is her baby, and the one who loves her is Gallen.

Horribly, these last lines rekindled Kenix and Gallen\'s tedious relationship in my mind (from part one), and also made me remember how I detested their lack of chemistry and dull love story. Also, it made me angry that she failed to think of her love for Sunny. During the time that she was captive she rarely showed any grief at his passing away.

It was obviously TVB\'s attempt to offer some consolidation to supporters of the Gallen-Kenix romance, to illustrate that although Kenix chose Sunny, Gallen still has an important place in her heart. But terribly, it causes Sunny supporters to feel that he has been done a great injustice by Kenix.

Kenix\'s death speech was badly written and her death scene poorly directed, and as I progressed further into the series I realised that this was only the beginning of a badly written storyline. Compared to part one, part two fails to be as well rounded and exciting, and loses audience interest from midway towards the end. But it was still enjoyable and not terribly tedious, because of one main reason:
all of Gallen\'s actions are based around one goal: that of building Sunnys Smokeless City, thus fulfilling the dream of his dead friend. Viewers feel that it is Gallen\'s duty to devote the rest of his life to achieving Sunnys dream, as he played the biggest part in Sunnys death. It is very inspirational as Sunnys dream now becomes the dream of all three of them (Roger included) and represents their strong friendship. Thus, although part two is badly written, this one good point manages to hold it together and prevent it from becoming unbearable.

After Kenix\'s death, Gallen realises it was business tycoon Paul Chun\'s second son who was behind the deaths of the couple. He then goes to all lengths to get revenge for them.

Gallen\'s grey character is emphasised very well as the audience does not view Gallen as a murderer, but rather as a justified man taking the law into his own hands to gain justice for his two friends, thus these first few episodes of part two are filled with excitement and anticipation of justice being done.

Audience involvement and support for Gallen\'s actions are further emphasised by the tragic death of Kenix and Sunny, a sweet couple that created support in part one. If this couple was ineffective in achieving audience support in part one, part two would have nothing to entice viewers to watch it.

Spcnet\'s review gives an accurate description of Gallen\'s character in part two: he has truly become a good boy. No longer grey nor multi-dimensional, Gallen\'s flaws are non-existent. He is now considerate and wants a peaceful life. Granted that after all the tragedy hes experienced (most of the tragedy having been caused by him), he would have to mature and change. But TVB has made a bad decision to portray him as a flawless good boy, as this destroys all audience interest. The sad part is that viewers do not begin to like Gallen\'s character (as is obviously TVB\'s intention). On the contrary, I found myself detesting him even more than in part one--with his attitude of not wanting to hurt innocent people being very dreary and tiresome.

Also with Gallen\'s complete character change, the sense of corporate excitement is gone. No more dirty corporate tactics are used, thus making this series dull. Compared to part one, part two is rarely exciting and mostly irritating.

But before Gallen becomes a saint, he still sticks to his old ways in creating his ingenious plan of revenge.
