The lie - Yes, the poor economic conditions have not spared even our Ah Teck who, as a result, is feeling alittle on the downside. Yusof on the other hand, is high in spirit with the recent increase of people eating his mee rebus. His recent purchase of a new car brought his spirits even higher. However, Ah Teck soon snaps out of his depressive state when he finds himself hitting the right keys with the kids at the community centre with his Wong Brothers stories. This sudden change of mood leaves everyone wondering - could Dad be seeing another woman? On the married front, Paul and Anita have to come clean when Dolly's excitement over her unborn grandchild is escalating. At the same time, Denise and Liam are taking their relationship seriously, and Denise is even thinking of going for a holiday with Liam though she's sure she would meet with strong objection from her conservative parents. And Ronnie's advice to her? Lie.
It's been one year since Paul and Anita got married. And it's great news again; Yusof is getting married - again! His new bride is Ramona: besides being an avid amateur masseuse, she blends her own pure essential oils for sale and used to own a shop called "Ramonatherapy". She and the Tans meet for the first time and awkwardness ensues. Anita and Paul have been living with the Tans for a year now. Anita is becoming tired of the lack of privacy and wants their own digs. Paul finally agrees, but before they can decide on a flat to buy, Dolly purchases the flat next door without consulting them first, much to Anita's distress. Will Paul and Anita succumb to her wishes like obedient children, or is it time to make a stand?
Rosnah finds her long-lost recipe book, and it's chow time for everyone except Teck, who's suffering under Dolly's strict diet. Meanwhile, cool macho Ronnie Tan is taking orchid gardening. What on earth could make him do such a thing? Or is it who? Will Teck have to eat Dolly's boiled vegetable for the rest of his life? Will Ronnie go to the Amazon? And will anyone get dengue fever?
The Christmas spirit comes to Bishan and hits the Tan family in a big way. As Dolly gets right into the swing of things much to Teck's bewilderment, Ronnie transforms the festive season into a commercial venture. Denise is determined to make a difference and organizes a Christmas party for orphaned children. To add to the mayhem, Paul gets romantically involved, without even trying.
