[1][2] It received six nominations at the 56th Golden Horse Awards, including Best Film, Best Director and Best Supporting Actors for Koh Jia Ler and Yang Shi Bin.

Ling also has to take care of her bedridden father-in-law (Yang Shi Bin), who has suffered a stroke and is unable to speak, whilst Andrew is often absent from home.

Outside, she finds Kok Wei Lun (Koh Jia Ler), a student who is infatuated with her, on crutches because of his injuries sustained from his wushu training.

Ling returns to class with a bag of durians offered by her brother to find that only Wei Lun has remained, an act ridiculed by his classmates.

At his wake, Ling's siblings-in-law decide that they should sell their dead father's property, and she discovers that Andrew is cheating on her with another woman with a son, who have come to pay respects to him.

Ling becomes reticent with Wei Lun, who begins stalking her frequently and harasses her on public transport after she crashes her car as a result of his rash actions.

The affair is ultimately uncovered by the school principal after Wei Lun was caught in a fight with two schoolmates, who tried to expose covertly taken photos of Ling on his phone.

Having discovered she is pregnant through a spontaneous home pregnancy test, Ling experiences a gamut of mixed emotions in her apartment, now stripped of its furniture, soon to be sold away.

"[10] Jordan Mintzer of The Hollywood Reporter praised the film for portraying Singapore's decapitated class division, social issues and the performances from the two leads.
