Episode 10 of "Sunset X Vibes" gently reimmerses us in Lin's reverie of Sidarin, as Sun offers solace amidst his tears, a beacon of warmth in the midst of his sorrow. From the confines of their vehicle, Sun confides in the listener, revealing his text exchange with Lin's concerned grandfather, who worries over the young man's restless nights. In a gesture of camaraderie, he sends a heartwarming selfie, capturing their moment of respite, now that Lin's spirits have lifted.
Later, under the veil of secrecy, Sam presents Sun with a trove of evidence gathered on his journey, invoices shrouded in suspicion. Sun then strides into a board meeting, where Chan brings him abreast of the murmurings against him. Amidst the chatter, Sun reveals his own investigative endeavors, unearthing potential fraud and forging connections with a diamond mine's proprietor. He justifies the design department's augmented budget, inviting patience as he unveils groundbreaking designs, entrusting the task's delicate handling to the uneasy Kaew.
During a respite, the interns' anxiety simmers, grappling with the daunting task of crafting fresh designs within the impending 48-hour deadline. A strategy is hatched—to repurpose a previous masterpiece and, should inspiration strike, follow with a second entry. Their sanctuary becomes Yo's familial eatery, where Sam's presence, ostensibly 'assisting his lover's mother,' elicits no surprise from the seasoned interns, who long awaited their union's official embrace.
At Sun's abode, Lin delves into the world of jewelry design, his creativity striving for perfection amidst the grandeur of the upcoming event. But the pieces fall short of his vision, prompting a respite in the form of a snooker game. Yet, even as the cue ball fails to find its mark, Sun's affection finds its way, showering Lin with kisses that trace his spine, igniting a passion that transcends the game's boundaries. The snooker table swiftly transforms into a canvas for their desires, and soon, the bedroom becomes their sanctuary.
But as slumber overtakes Lin, Sidarin's ghostly embrace invades his dreams. She gifts him a necklace, a token of love, only to be cruelly cast into a cavernous abyss by his hand. This haunting vision, however, fuels Lin's creative fire, igniting a masterpiece within him as Sun sleeps peacefully by his side, unaware of the breathtaking design taking shape in Lin's mind.
The following day, Sun breaks the news to his mother, announcing his intention of bringing a special guest home. Lin's heart skips a beat at the prospect, yet Sun allays her concerns by revealing his cunning plan. He had stolen a glimpse of Lin's design and now longs to showcase it within the confines of their familial abode.
As they savor a heartwarming meal with Sun's mother, the latter expresses her profound gratitude to Lin for his invaluable contributions to the Amaraporn endeavor. Sun then delicately steers the conversation towards his true agenda—he urges his mother to unveil a painting to Lin, a masterpiece depicting Lord Phaya Suriyen, a portrait she had commissioned with immense pride.
The unveiling of the painting triggers a vivid dreamscape within Lin's mind, where Sun transforms into Lord Suriyen, relegating Sidarin to the role of a mere "beloved sister." In this dream, the love of Suriyen's life, shattered by a broken engagement, remains ever-present. Despite this, Suriyen's heart remains steadfast, refusing to yield to Sidarin's affections. Tragically, Sidarin, in a misguided act, takes the life of her own sister, Lord Suriyen's beloved, sealing her fate in eternal confinement within a cavernous prison.
Awakening from this haunting vision, Lin finds himself inexplicably inspired. He begs to sit and work amidst the painting's enchanting aura, his creative juices flowing freely. When he presents his masterpiece to Sun and his mother, both are awestruck by its captivating power. Sun, in a gesture of unwavering support, unveils a exquisite gemstone, suggesting its incorporation into the necklace, regardless of the outcome of the prestigious world jewelry competition.
Over a glass of fine wine, the evening wears on, and Sun, with a mischievous gleam in his eye, coaxes Lin towards the shimmering pool, despite the latter's slight trepidation towards the water. As Sun sheds his shirt, revealing his toned physique, Lin's resolve falters, and he surrenders to the allure of romance, joining Sun in the embrace of the cool, inviting waters.
