Leo makes Elaine draw lots for Mid-Autumn; for eight years, Leo spent it at his father-in-law's, Elaine discovering both slips indicated his home. Leo fawns over father-in-law Jason for promotions, using Elaine's pension to help Jason bribe Party A. Derek Gray dies due to lack of medical funds. Elaine sees her son is an ungrateful wretch, takes back her pension, sells the house, leaves, and starts her own life.
