Together with Cameos from Ms Cheung and Dr Webster, they talk about:
- The impact Ms Wong had on their lives and careers of both Mr Magsinos.
- Ms Wong's perspective on seeing two of her old students flourishing in their lives over the last 20 years.
- Her first impressions on both Magsinos
- How and why teachers genuinely strive to give students the best opportunities they can to grow and be successful
