I'm only translating the Simon portion of this video as I'm more interested in that (Sorry Marcus and Vivian fans!) Also Vivian made a Qing Feng and Chu Chu joke... and my poor heart cannot handle that after this week's episode which was already the start of a series of sad misunderstandings about Qing Feng (You all know that I will never condone a Qing Feng Chu Chu ending right?! I find her an extremely irritating character). Also, there wasn't a behind the scenes bit to do with the actual kiss?? So I'm just gonna make myself feel better by translating Simon's Behind the Scenes!
1. Simon as the Lost Romance ex-gangster masseur [1:59-4:22]
The girls are being silly. Vivian and Pii are pretending Kiki is their old mother and they want to take her to get a massage.
Vivian and Pii to Kiki pretending to be daughters: Mum, you normally work so hard
Pii: We will take you get a massage
Vivian, laughing and pointing to where Simon is sitting: There's one here...
Pii yelling at Simon: Master! Master!
---This is like a Chinese term of respect for people qualified in work, particularly those anicient arts, things like Kung-fu, prayer and massage---
[Pink caption: Mother and fillial daughters storyline?!]
Pii yelling at Simon: We've brought our mother for a massage
Simon is sitting on the couch talking to someone and hasn't noticed them yet
[Blue caption pointing to Simon: The view of the Master's back looks familiar]
Vivian and Pii as daughters: This is the master
Kiki as the old mother: Is this master good?
-Cuts to Kiki still playing the role of old mother and making a request-
Kiki as the old mother: I want to add oil
Kiki as the old mother: Oil... Add essential oil...my favourite is the rose one
-Cuts to Simon turning around and responding-
Simon to the girls: Cast and crew right?
-Cuts to Simon giving a massage to the director-
[Purple and blue caption: Romantic Spa open for business]
Vivian pretends to be a pushy customer and playfully hits Simon.
[Pink circle caption: The people turn out to be like this]
Vivian as customer: I booked you first
-Cuts to Simon talking to the girls-
Simon laughing: I am completely equipped, I tell you
They look at Simon's mini fan that he's carrying around
Pii: This is...
Vivian, laughing and pointing to his fan: This is your essential oil
Vivian: You've even prepared (by) carrying your essential oils on you
-Cuts to the girls laughing while Simon is walking away-
[Purple caption: Using all his effort to fight for achievement]
Simon walks next to Marcus and points to himself
Simon [pink caption]: Number 6
He points to Marcus
[Blue caption: A pair of hot gentleman to choose from?]
[Pink caption: Can we book them both (because we want them both)? XD]
-Cuts to Simon walking out doing a 'rock on' symbol with his hands-
They play clubbing music and pop a 'massage parlour advertisement flyer' on screen
The idea is Simon is a good-looking masseur god at the grand opening of this imaginary massage parlour they have all been play acting.
The flyer says:
[Red writing: Opening Ceremony]
[Pink and Purple box writing: Romantic Spa Service VIP]
[Black writing: Attractiveness index 100 points, Guaranteed to push (you) bit by bit until (reaching the correct) position]
[Bold black writing: This month's star master]
[Bold red writing: No. 6]
[Black writing: Discount 69% off]
[Red & Black writing going across Simon: Book number 6, Duan Mu Master]
---Duan Mu being the last name of his character, Qing Feng---
---Haha, why does this massage parlour advertisement sound so dirrrty?! -___-;; ---
One of the girls complimenting Simon: So hot
Simon does a spin with his rock on hand gesture and then walks away
[Red caption: Error!!]
-Cuts to Simon talking about his outfit-
Simon, talking about his clothes: This outfit is really cool
Marcus: Today, we're walking with...
Marcus [Black caption]: The vibe of gangsters
-Cuts to Simon describing his gangster role-
Simon: I'll be acting as a masseur at a massage parlour
Simon: And then, the (gangster) Boss appears
Simon: To take me away
They tint the screen to create the feel of a gangster movie
Marcus in mafia boss voice [Yellow writing]: Where is this month's rent?
But Simon isn't finished setting the scene and doesn't play along
Simon, still telling the story to the camera: I am that type of...I have seen before...
Marcus laughs [Pink speech bubble caption]: We haven't started acting yet?
The girls watching also laugh
Simon: Wait a sec, I want to finish telling the story first
Simon: In the past, I was also...
Simon trying to finish his story: Wait a sec
Simon: In the past, I was a good-for-nothing prodigal son
[Green caption: In the middle of directing a play]
Simon: And then I was also cold and ruthless, that type of type of person
Simon: But I...have abandoned my life as an outlaw
Simon: Now I run a massage parlour
Vivian: Ok
Simon: But my 'brother'...he is still a gangster
Simon: This is the script
Vivian counts them into their scene: 5,4,3,2,1...action

Simon as masseur talking to some lackey at his parlour: ...That...
Simon as masseur talking to some lackey at his parlour: Give the boss the protection fee
---You know, the sum of money you pay gangsters to protect you from other gangsters. You're pretty much in debt to them for life. And if you don't pay it you will get bullied by them on top of other gangsters. It may surprise you all, but I'm a sucker for gangster movies---
Simon as masseur: Give it to him
Marcus as mafia boss, waving a hand at Simon in praise: Clever
Marcus as mafia boss: What I really want to say is...

Marcus gives an adorable smile
Simon: Just want to ask...
Simon [Blue caption]: Do you want to strengthen the part at the ears?
Marcus [Pink caption]: Ea...Ears?!
Simon: Right, the ears
There is a moment of silence while Marcus figures out what he means
Simon [Red caption]: You think we're just doing this in vein, do you?
---Not sure if I translated that phrase correctly. Not really sure what 做白means since I've never ever heard this expression before? I've translated it in the reverse 白做, which means in vein, but really not sure if that's right...if anyone knows, give me a shout out ---
Marcus and Simon burst out laughing
[Brown caption: How did the story line get this twisted XD]
