Menggay tells RJ that she wants to learn how to cook. So they accompany his Mama to the Farmer's Market. It's a Sunday and they plan to grill seafood.

They buy shrimps, squid, fish and vegetables.

When they reach home, RJ cleans and prepares what they bought. He guts out the fish and lines them up like soldiers in attention.

Menggay starts the fire. She burns paper and places it on the charcoal. But she doesn't see any embers.

RJ brings out the fish and checks the heat just as Menggay pours in some lighter fluid.

The meal is delicious. But for weeks, RJ walks around with a couple of missing eyebrows.
