Sen Tai Salai Sode (The Deadline)

Fah, a confident creative director at a giant event organizer company in Thailand, returns home as a single woman for her mother’s birthday. Her mother, Sodsai, constantly meddles in her children's lives, from their clothes to their lifestyles. She also loves comparing Fah to her sweet, perfect younger sister, Namfon.
Namfon brings her Thai-Singaporean boyfriend, John, to announce their marriage. However, Sodsai refuses to approve it because it goes against the dying wish of her late husband: the older sister must get married before the younger sister. If the older sister doesn't marry, the younger sister cannot either.
Fah doesn't care about Namfon and John's pleas, declaring she is enjoying her work and doesn't want anyone. To force Fah's hand, Sodsai fakes having terminal cancer with only two months left to live, begging Fah to get married so she can die in peace. Fah falls into the trap and promises to "find a good man to marry within 60 days."
Stressed out because romance has never been on her mind, Fah is suddenly snapped out of her thoughts by a camera flash. Hating having her privacy invaded, Fah chases the photographer and accidentally breaks his expensive camera. Din, an artsy professional photographer who just moved in next door, demands compensation. Fah refuses to apologize and walks away. Din is stunned, but not angry—he actually feels it's love at first sight. Thus, Fah's husband-hunting mission begins.
BB, Fah's edgy and bold best friend and co-worker, volunteers to be her matchmaker. She puts up a notice saying Fah wants a husband, prompting many male coworkers to apply. However, their boss shuts it down to keep the office focused on work. Fah then sets impossible criteria for her future groom: no smoking, no drinking, no dancing, not stubborn, not a playboy, not a workaholic, etc.
BB takes Fah out to find men, but they have no luck. Eventually, Fah sets her sights on Captain Winai, a warm, family-man airline pilot. Meanwhile, Honey, Fah’s work rival, tries to ruin things by telling the captain that Fah actually likes aggressive men who make the first move. The captain believes this and attacks Fah in a hotel room. Luckily, Din arrives in time to save her. This makes Fah friendlier toward Din, though Din keeps his secret crush hidden.
Fah revamps her 60-day mission, making BB the recruiter and Din the screener. She goes on many blind dates but always finds flaws in the men. BB suggests a matchmaking agency, which Fah secretly joins. Din secretly joins as well to sabotage her dates, not wanting her to end up with anyone else. His interference ruins the matchmaking events.
Meanwhile, Sodsai pushes Fah to hurry up and sets her up with Dr. Thosapol, a handsome vet. Not wanting to lose, Namfon introduces Sia Tak, a funny yacht owner, and John brings in Michael, an energetic model. The three men aggressively compete for Fah, causing chaos in her life and work.
Overwhelmed, Fah accepts a playful suggestion from Din to pretend to be his girlfriend so her mother will back off. Sodsai reluctantly agrees to a one-month trial. During this time, Din shows genuine care and love. Fah finds herself smiling alone and developing real feelings for him, but she pushes them away because Din isn't her "perfect" dream man.
When Honey exposes their fake relationship, Sodsai furiously bans Din from seeing Fah. Later, during a work trip to the beach, Fah falls into the sea and is rescued by Khun Vee, a warm, wealthy resort owner. He is a perfect gentleman, and Fah decides to win his heart. Seeing them together, a heartbroken Din gives up and starts spending time with a model named Face, who has a crush on him. Sodsai instantly approves of the perfect Khun Vee, and Fah announces their wedding.
However, right as Fah is planning her wedding, Khun Vee's legal wife, Kate, shows up. Heartbroken and shocked, Fah dumps Vee immediately. Soon after, Fah discovers her mother's cancer was completely faked to force her into marriage. Fah cancels the wedding entirely.
Fah realizes she misses Din the most, but when she goes to him, she sees him looking happy with Face and quietly walks away. Meanwhile, Vee begs Din to tell Fah that he is divorcing his wife and truly loves her. Forcing himself to do the right thing, Din delivers the message and pushes Fah to go back to Vee, insisting Vee is the best man for her.
Hurt that Din is pushing her away while seemingly happy with Face, Fah sarcastically announces, "I will marry whoever stands next to me at the wedding tomorrow!"
This announcement causes a massive horde of men to show up at the church to claim her. On the morning of the wedding, Din finally listens to his heart. He shows up at the church in his pajamas and screams his proposal to Fah at the very last second. Fah cries tears of joy. When the mob of grooms riots to grab Fah, Din scoops her up in her wedding dress and they run away together, full of love and happiness.
