In the sixth episode of "Dalah: Death and the Flowers," the narrative takes a dramatic turn with a revelation of monumental proportions. Dalah unmasks Ohm's true colors, dismantling the façade that had deceived everyone around him. Pam bravely stepped forward, confessing her intention to erase Bee's incriminating video from Ohm’s study, only to stumble upon hundreds of similar recordings. Recognizing the vast scope of his misdeeds, she promptly duplicated them onto a USB drive.
Subsequently, Xinxin defies her mother's directives, stepping into the limelight to confess that she too had fallen prey to Ohm's predatory advances. Dalah also brings to light the plight of Jaa, the loyal family maid, who not only shared vital information about the location of the incriminating files but also revealed herself as another of Ohm's victims.
Dalah then debunks the notion that Ohm perished after 11 PM, exposing the deceptive nature of the forensic reports hindered by the studio's temperature that retarded decomposition. To vividly demonstrate this, she showcases roses she had submerged in blue ink at 10 PM, which ordinarily turn fully blue within 45 minutes. Their halfway transformation indicates that the jar must have shattered around 10:30 PM. She speculates that the murderer likely infiltrated the premises amidst the fireworks and the heated argument outside involving Pam, Kris, and Risa.
Transitioning to physical evidence, Dalah draws attention to Ekapop's footprints discovered near the rear entrance after his departure. However, she subtly hints at a twist, noting that Ekapop and Ekasit share the same shoe size, implying Ekasit's possible presence at the crime scene. Ekasit initially claims to have spent the evening bar-hopping with Pete, but upon Dalah's cross-examination, Pete reveals that Ekasit joined him only at the fourth bar, alleging prior engagement with protesters.
Dalah then unveils a strand of hair she had meticulously gathered from the crime scene, its presence whispering tales of untold secrets. Her mind drifts back to the pre-wedding dinner where Sarath's incessant sneezing had stood out, a telltale sign that something was amiss, given his well-known allergies to pets. The forensic examination later confirmed the hair belonged to Ekasit's canine companion.
Just as the tension mounts, Montree storms in, his once unwavering loyalty to Ekapop shattered by the compelling evidence of Ohm's misdeeds, vividly captured in the retrieved footage. In a moment of epiphany, Ekasit succumbs to confession, acknowledging his guilt in Ohm's murder. Flashbacks paint a picture of years spent in Ohm's shadow, Ekasit always feeling marginalized since Ohm's birth. Ohm's relentless framing of him for various misdemeanors turned him into the family's scapegoat, a resentment that culminated in his following the group to Dalah's studio and committing the ultimate act. Dalah, meanwhile, had stumbled upon the grim scene only after Ekasit had vanished into the night.
Amidst the swirling chaos, Dalah unveils her personal quest, revealing how she stumbled upon the truth behind her mother's tragic case. With purposeful resolve, she had approached Ohm's family, seeking justice for a wrong long unaddressed. She recounts how her mother, carrying the child of an Ohm family member, had been denied acknowledgment and ultimately met her untimely end at Ekapop's bidding.
Ekapop, in a moment of poignant confession, admits to orchestrating the murder to shield Ekasit. A bombshell revelation follows: Ekasit is Dalah's biological father. Back then, on the cusp of becoming Prime Minister, Ekasit's reputation was Ekapop's top priority, driving him to orchestrate the heinous act. In the closing chapter, both brothers are apprehended, their fates sealed by their own actions.
The episode draws to a close with Dalah envisioning her mother, a serene smile playing on her lips as she finally grants her peace, justice having been served at last.
