Kang's efforts are further hampered by Bobo, who's decided to build a grand mansion (Mansion De Bobo) with his invention windfall. When Kang discovers that Bobo is shopping around for other construction firms, the friendship is hampered as both men get childishly sensitive.

3 4 November 2003 The Deal Not able to withstand his desire to see the design of his new house, Bobo offers Kang a free trip to Las Vegas if he can deliver the design within a week.

The Phua boys reminisce about the ‘bad old days’ where Pa screwed up their first loves, career plans and generally quashed their self-esteem. They then hypothesize about the year 2013, and the type of person Kang's baby boy will grow up to be. The potential reality doesn’t look good. The child may end up a thug like Kang or a sissy like Beng!

Margaret is stunned when she finds out she won’t be the baby's godmother. She feels it's revenge for not having made Kang and Rosie Aloysius's godparents. She goes to extreme lengths, from throwing a godparents party to learning mahjong from Rosie to singing a karaoke duet. All in a ‘lian’ effort to prove she's worthy of the ‘godmother’ title.

Meanwhile, King Kong decides that if Bobo can be an inventor, so can he. This kick starts a series of ridiculous and hilarious King Kong Inventions like the ‘Tau Huay XJ 2000’, ‘Anti-Bacteria So Bright Light Bulb 2000’ and even a ‘High Class Tiffin Carrier 2000’!

Aloy is on a quest to get parental permission to become a rock musician.
10 23 December 2003 Livin La Vida Rosie Ricky Martin is in Singapore, and Rosie goes to great lengths to win the ‘Spend an evening with Ricky’ contest, from learning Spanish, to cooking his favourite food to memorising his bio. Kang pretends to be mature about it but secretly does everything in his power to undermine Rosie's chances of ever meeting Ricky. Even though Kang loves the ‘Cup of Life’ song, he doesn’t see what the huge fuss is. He's just as sexy and talented as Ricky, if not, more so.

Soon the Phuas are constructing a new school wing, helping out in the cafeteria and garden, all in the hopes of getting their children places in the prestigious school.

12 1 February 2005 TBC Kang's ex-boss, Wong Tua Kee, makes a return and announces that he's retiring from construction. He plans to pass over all his contacts and projects to his favourite ex-worker, Chu Kang. But on one condition: Tua Kee wants Chu Kang to prove he's a good contractor by working with Tua Kee on a very small security guard hut job. Chu Kang is ecstatic and agrees. What could be simpler? Things take a turn for the worse when Tua Kee makes Kang do menial construction work, makes King Kong and Ah Goon supervise Kang's work and starts treating Kang the way he used to in the past – with rudeness, insults and smacks to the head.

Meanwhile, Margaret is upset that even though she and Chu Beng own 50% of the Phua house, the entire home barely has an ounce of their influence. She secretly attempts to replace the living room's ah being décor with some up-market art pieces.

Bobo accepts defeat graciously until he learns that Kang cheated by replacing his real bugs with chocolate bugs. Now Bobo wants to take the contest up a notch. Beng also wants in on the contest but he's shown little respect by Kang and Bobo so he resorts to a macho contest of his own by baking the lightest, fluffiest chiffon cake known to man.

Meanwhile, Margaret attempts to get Aloysius and Lynette back together, but her plans backfire when she discovers he's been dating someone new.

15 22 February 2005 Save The Watermelon Part 1 The Phua family is at a loss when they discover that after 40 years, the renowned institution, Watermelon KTV lounge, will be closed down. The family hold many dear memories at the lounge – it's where Kang and Rosie first met and fell in love. After considering the options, they decide to buy in and take over the Watermelon lounge. It will soon be ‘PCK Pte Ltd – Construction & KTV’.

However, they don’t have enough cash to make the purchase alone. They enlist the help of Kang's old friend, Kok Peng, and a successful charming businesswoman – Candy Chew. Candy is an ex-hostess who now runs a Property and Lingerie conglomerate. Things start looking up as the deal is put to paper. But disaster strikes when the Phuas discover Candy has played them out and intends to demolish the Watermelon lounge and build a Spanish restaurant for higher profits.

16 1 March 2005 TBC The Phua family is in a frenzy as they attempt to undo the damage caused by Candy and Kok Peng. They go to great lengths to get the lounge back – they use their brains, wit and the art of seduction – but nothing works. The family accepts that Watermelon is no more.

Rosie refuses to accept the fact and soon, she and Chu Kang have barricaded and cuffed themselves to the lounge premises as the bulldozers approach…
