SQUID GAME 2

EPISODE 4
SIX LEGS

[Jung-bae] Nice!

My mom used to pack lunches like this
when I was a kid.

What kinda banchan did they put in yours?

What's wrong? Not hungry?

Here, have some. Go on.

You know what they say,
"Full belly, happy heart."

Here, you can worry after you eat.
Or eat while you worry. Say "Ah."

Ah…

All right, fine, whatever.

Maybe this is all gonna work itself out.

I don't know how you're doing,

but even if I got the 20 million up there,
it still wouldn't be enough.

I could just make it through
the next game then--

Jung-bae.

When I was first in here three years ago,

I heard a player say something
just like that.

And by the end,

they were dead like everyone else.

[In-ho] Then why don't you help us, sir?

You said that you'd been here before.

You're the reason
I ended up voting to stay.

It's true.

After the first game,
I thought I was gonna quit.

And then I saw you.

And I thought to myself,
"One more. Then I can go."

[others agreeing]

[man] I thought the same thing.

[sighs softly]

[In-ho] Sir.

You know what's next, don't you?

Oh, yeah.

You won this whole thing before
so you know what game two is.

So, what are we playing?

The second game we…

we played was Dalgona.

Dalgona? Like, the honeycomb
you carve the shape out of?

That's right.

We had to pick one out of the four shapes
they showed us.

Okay then.

So, of those,
which was the easiest one to do?

The triangle.

And which was the hardest one?

Umbrella.

Umbrella?

[scoffs] What…

So players actually picked umbrella?

[intriguing music playing]

They had no idea what the game was
so I bet they were totally screwed.

-Right?
-[others murmur in agreement]

Wait. That means
we all just need to pick the triangle.

Everyone should be able
to get through this one, right?

Hey, wait, wait, wait. Quiet.

If all 365 of us survive,
that means the prize will stay the same.

We'd have risked our lives
to play another game for nothing.

[others agreeing]

[whispering] Good. We keep this quiet.

It stays between us so that means
we're the only ones who know.

-Sound good?
-[woman] Right. Makes sense.

[Gi-hun] We can't do that.

The only reason I'm telling you this now
is because I wanna try and save everybody.

When I'm positive
Dalgona's the next thing we're playing,

then I'll tell every single player here
what I just told you people.

-Come on.
-[Jeong-dae scoffs]

[others grumbling]

What shape did you pick, Gi-hun?

[intriguing music playing]

[Yong-sik] Hey, Mom? Mom, Mom!
I just found out something important.

Where is she?

Ma?

[whispering] Here, have this too.

You aren't just eating for you now.
Come on.

And it's eggs.
They're really good when you're pregnant.

Honey, I've delivered so many children
in my neighborhood.

I've lost count
of exactly how many there were.

I knew from the minute I saw
the shape of your body

and how you carried yourself.
I could just see it.

And by the looks of it, I'd say
you're due pretty soon now. Am I right?

And compressing your belly
isn't going to help things.

You could hurt yourself and your child
trying to hide it. It isn't good.

That's why you were in pain earlier.

It's not what you think.

[sighs]

How the heck did you wind up in here,
in this awful place?

[footsteps approach]

-[Yong-sik] Mom, what you doing?
-You scared me!

-This isn't the time to make friends.
-Why not?

Hey, hey, Hold on minute. Just wait.

Listen. Finish up your food,

and if anything feels off at any point,
don't hesitate to come to me.

-Ma, I said come here.
-My bed's right over there. Take care.

What? Honestly, honey,
what's gotten into you?

[sighs]

[In-ho] Do you mind
if I ask you a question?

Why are you here?
Why'd you come back again?

You said you won the game, made it out.

And that would mean
you won 45.6 billion won.

Did you spend all of it already?

Did you start betting again?

That money doesn't belong to me.

The ones who died in this place,
that's their blood money.

And the same goes for everything in there.

What point is there
in thinking about it like that?

After all,
it's not like you killed anyone yourself.

And that way of thinking
won't help bring any of them back to life.

If you'd pressed "X" like I asked you to,
we all could've left here alive.

You could've saved everybody.

True. I was the last player to press "O."

It wasn't just me, though.

There's 182 other people
who wanted to stay here.

Yeah, and 182 more of them who wanted
to get the hell out of this place.

If I hadn't pressed "O"…

If I'd hit "X" and we'd all gone home,

you think they'd appreciate what I'd done?

If one of these people ran into me,
years from now,

do you think they'd say
they were happy I voted to go?

That they ended up
with a great life after all?

[Jung-bae] All right, that's enough.

It is what it is.
No use in pointing fingers now.

I mean, we're all in the same boat.
Everybody's got issues here.

We just need to focus
on winning the game tomorrow. Okay?

We have someone with us who's already won.

If we just work as a team,

then we have nothing to worry about.
You know?

[man] That's right, my friends.

[exhales] You say we should
work as a team, right?

I agree. I'm with you all the way.

And who are you?

Ah, excuse me.

Dae-ho. At your service.

Kang Dae-ho. That's me.

-Ah, Dae-ho, sure.
-Yes.

Do I know you?

[chuckles awkwardly]

Earlier, when Mr. 456 went "Freeze!"

I loved it. Became an instant fan.

I'd like to get to know all of you.
Give me a chance, sir.

"Freeze!" That was awesome, man.

-[Jung-bae] Uh-huh. Wait.
-[Dae-ho] What… What is it, sir?

The Marines?

-Yeah, why?
-[march music playing]

Which cohort?

[chuckles]

[Jung-bae] Oh. [chuckles]

Just wait.

Victory at all costs! Sir!

Cohort 1140, sir!

At ease!

"Dae-ho."

No wonder I had a good feeling about you.

-Sir!
-I was 746. Welcome, Marine.

-Won't let you down, sir!
-[laughs heartily]

-Sir! Sir!
-[continues laughing]

I like your discipline! [chuckles]

[Dae-ho] Thank you, sir!

Sir!

[Nam-gyu] Ugh. How's the food?

I couldn't eat anything.

All that blood flying around,
all those people getting shot,

and you're still hungry?

Listen, investing in that coin
ruined my life too.

-I came here to make money just like you.
-[footsteps approach]

Fucking right, money!
Better make a shit ton.

Because of you and your goddamn crypto,

I lost everything I ever earned
rapping my fuckin' ass off.

It was over 500 million won.

[Nam-gyu] 300 for me.

You better do well in here
'cause by the time we get out,

you're gonna pay us what you owe.

All right, I got it, now please
can you stop? Let me eat my food--

For such a skinny little bitch,
you sure are obsessed with food.

Give it back.

No.

If you want your precious rice so badly,
let Thanos feed it to you personally.

[Myung-gi grunts]

-Tasty?
-[tense music playing]

[Thanos and Nam-gyu laugh]

-[Myung-gi] Piece of shit!
-Get off him, dickhead.

You fucking asshole.

-[Thanos] Fuck off.
-[Nam-gyu] You little bitch!

[players murmur, exclaim]

[Thanos] Motherfucker!

You know how much money I lost
because of you, fuckface?

-Fuck you!
-Let me get a hit in too.

-You fucking--
-[Thanos] Hey, outta the way.

[Myung-gi groans]

[Thanos] You should be fucking grateful,
to eat whatever I give you! What's wrong?

Oh, to have all that energy.
It's gotta be nice to be that young.

He could get really hurt
if this continues.

Someone should intervene, right?

Yeah, I know.

[players exclaim]

-Me? Or--
-[Thanos grunts]

[players gasp]

Hey, kids. What makes you think
you can behave like that?

Especially while people are eating.
And in front of your elders too.

It's bad manners,
not to mention it's two against one.

Shame on you guys.

You're in here just like everyone else.
So cut the lecture…

Grandad.

How about instead of yip-yapping at me,

you go back home to your own kids,
you yell at them?

What did you say?

I said,
save the lecture for your own kids.

Hey, get your fuckin-- [groans]

-[ominous music playing]
-[groaning]

[Thanos grunts]

Son of a…

-[Thanos groans]
-[players gasp, exclaim]

[Thanos gasping] Wait. Wait a minute.

-[bones cracking]
-[Thanos groans]

I'm sorry, sir.

Please, I can't…

[gasping]

I'm sorry.

-[Thanos coughing]
-[applause]

[woman 1] That was awesome!

[man 1] Well done! Nice!

[woman 2] Good job!

[man 2] Damn, dude!

What's that guy's deal?

Ex-Marine, too?

[mysterious music playing]

[woman on PA] Attention.
Today's work schedule has ended.

All active staff, please take this time
to return to your rooms.

[chilling music playing]

-Na-yeon!
-[siren wailing]

-Are you her guardian?
-Yeah, I'm her dad.

Please take her
to Seohyeon University Hospital.

Take all my sorrow,
dissolve it into the ether.

[Yong-sik whispering]
Mom. Mom, are you asleep?

[Yong-sik sighs]

Oh, honey, I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry, it's all my fault.
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

[Jung-bae crying]

[In-ho] Excuse me.

If you aren't trying to sleep yet,
could we talk?

Okay.

I thought about it,
and I was out of line earlier.

I wanted to apologize. I'm sorry.

Oh… It's all right.

And I was the one who said
it was all your fault.

-That was wrong of me.
-It's okay.

[In-ho sighs softly]

My wife back home is very sick.

She was diagnosed with acute cirrhosis
and needs a new liver.

While they were running
all those tests on her,

we found out that she was pregnant too.

[somber music playing]

The hospital recommended an abortion,

but she wants to go through with it.

Even if it means dying.

My wife is, well…

Stubborn's an understatement.

There's no arguing with her
once she's set on something.

We're struggling to find her a donor,
and she keeps on getting worse.

I've already borrowed
everything I could, but…

it still isn't enough.

Things got desperate.

Then one of my oldest clients
heard about our situation.

They came to us, said they wanted to help.

So I borrowed money from them.

It wasn't a bribe, but it looked like it.

So I got in trouble,
and was fired from my job.

After I'd given them my best years.

Entering these games was my last hope.

I know what you meant,

Mr. 456, about the prize money,
what it costs.

I really do.

But still…

I have to win that prize money,
even if the cost is other people's lives.

I wanna use it to…

[breath shaking]

To save my wife, and our child.

And I don't care how I get it.

[eerie music playing]

Close him up.

Why? Can't use any of it?

[masked soldier] What the hell?

What happened? Where's the rest?

None of the organs were any good.

This one's been dead so long
we were only able to save the eyes.

Told you not to kill them. Need them
breathing if we want anything good.

What are you talking about?
I left a bunch alive for you.

[doctor] Well, someone else popped
that guy in the head to finish the job.

Same with that one over there.

Took one shot to the leg,
and then another in the head.

[sighs]

Who's fucking doing this?

[scanner trilling]

[automated voice] Identity confirmed.

[radio beeps]

[man on radio]
Sir. Reporting from the surgery room.

[Masked Officer] How did we do?

Well, sir, most were shot in the head
or chest and died immediately.

The ones without fatal wounds
were shot again to confirm the kill.

So there's not much usable merchandise.

Who fired those shots?

I think it was Number 011.

[radio beeps]

-[lid pops]
-[liquid pouring]

[door opens]

[masked manager] Number 011.

The Officer wants to see you.

[enigmatic music playing]

[scanner trilling]

[automated voice] Identity confirmed.

[tense music playing]

[foreboding music playing]

[remote beeps]

[No-eul] You wanted to see me, sir?

Take your mask off.

I told you not to interfere
if you weren't going to assist us.

I heard you shot the players
who were still breathing

so you could confirm the kills.

I did the task that was given to me.

How long has it been…

since we met each other?

I can't recall at this point.

If memory serves…

it was right around seven years ago.

[puffs]

The very first time I went to see you,

you were lying in your bed
in that dusty old hospital,

just staring up at the ceiling
like a zombie.

I couldn't believe you killed
the team pursuing you with one rifle

and got past the fences
at the Demarcation Line

without any kind of help at all.

I saw you in that bed
and felt sorry for you.

So I decided to give you
a chance to start over.

And I'll always be grateful
for your help, sir.

Then you should do what you're told.

Sir, I don't think I will.

You worried the boss is going to find out?

That shouldn't concern you.

Last time we had a player do the surgeries

in exchange for information
about the games they were going to play.

This time, we actually
brought a doctor here ourselves.

There's no way anyone will find out
about it, and even if they do--

That's not my issue.

[yelling] Then what is it, huh?

[Masked Officer sighs]

[exhales]

When you met me, you said…

you wanted to find the kid
you'd left behind.

[chilling music playing]

And if I can make that happen
you'd do anything.

Has something changed?

Back when you first told me
what I'd have to do in here,

the way you said it was

I'd be helping people with no hope

end their misery
so they wouldn't have to suffer anymore.

And I believed you.

That's the reason I came here.

You've changed, sir, not me.

Either way they'll end up dead.

All we're doing
is using their organs to help save others.

What's wrong with that?

If there's nothing else for me,
I would like to be dismissed.

SEOUL DOBONG POLICE STATION

[detective] Whoa, Detective Hwang,
been a while.

-[table thunks]
-[chief yelling] Hwang Jun-ho!

You hand in your resignation
without telling me anything?

And why the hell
have you been ignoring my calls?

You know what I had to do to change this
to a leave of absence after your stunt?

Hi, Chief. Are you finished yet?

What?

I need you to help me, sir.

[scoffs]

Okay. At this point,
what else can I do, huh?

Look for that stupid island again
or something?!

Yeah.

[sighs] Not this shit.

We need to begin the search immediately.

Stalling now
puts not only Mr. Seong in danger,

but everyone else
that's being forced to play.

I'm confused.
Weren't we done with this a while ago?

Please, sir. It's not the same.
Things have changed since back then.

If we don't stop them now, we might
never get the opportunity again. Okay?

-Chief Kim.
-Sir.

Why's he back on this?

You said he'd improved.

Jun-ho, listen. Go to counselling.
It's nothing to be ashamed--

[yelling] Sir, you're not hearing me!

Are you really gonna sit here
and let those people die?

[yelling] How long will you keep insisting
on this ridiculous story!

If it's real, bring me proof!

We depend on evidence. Evidence!

Accept his resignation.

He's beyond help now.

But, I… Sir…

Oh, what a disaster. Hey!

I told you this wouldn't work.

There's no way
you'll be reinstated now, idiot!

Sir! I'll make sure
he gets counselling, okay?

Sir, wait! Just a moment!

[Woo-seok] You see? What'd I tell you?
The police are useless. Never go to them.

Then we'll do it on our own.

Two teams searching at the same time
should have a chance.

Yeah. Captain Park found us another boat
through one of his friends or whatever.

And I hired us a few new guys,
and divided them up into Teams 1 and 2.

Okay, great. Good to hear.

If the games have already started
that means we have five days left at most.

-We gotta move fast as possible.
-All right, got it.

I set up everything to get us back on
the water as soon as the weather clears.

I'll see you soon, okay?

[men conversing indistinctly]

[Woo-seok sighs]

Come on, we can't sail today,
so you might as well relax a little.

Captain, are you sure
we can take the boats out tomorrow?

I checked the forecast
and it still wasn't looking too great.

Look, kid.

I've been sailing for 30 years.

All these damn forecasters

sit in their cubicles
and stare at computers every minute,

and they're gonna tell me what's going on?

Okay. I won't argue with you.
If we can't go tomorrow, it's your fault.

So, why the big rush? Huh?

Jun-ho and I have spent two years
looking for this place.

How are we gonna find it now?

[sighs]

It's supposed to be a secret, which means
I can't really get into all the details.

We know this one guy who's actually
there at the island right now.

I hope he's okay.

The man who was in the games?

Huh?

Who…

Hold on, Captain.
You already know about Mr. Seong?

Oh, well, Jun-ho did kind of fill me in.

You already know?
Then I can just tell you the whole story.

So this guy, Seong Gi-hun,

he apparently won these games
a few years ago.

He wants to get back
at the folks running it,

so he hid this tracker thing in a molar

and went out to the island again
on his own.

Only, I still don't know
how they caught on to us.

That means those wild stories
Jun-ho told were all true?

Yeah.

I only did all this,

the whole
searching for the mystery island thing

'cause I connected to the kid
after saving his life.

Ah, I thought all that crap
was in his head,

with the games, and the 45.6 billion won.

Captain, I didn't believe this crap
at first, just like you.

But it's real. As real as that drink
sitting right in front of you.

I saw the masked guys
with my very own eyes.

At this club one of them tased me
in the neck, just like that. [grunts]

The masked guys tased you?

-Yeah!
-Ah, now I get it.

That's why you brought
these guys with you, right?

Oh, shit.

Those eyes,
they sure aren't kidding around.

-Like a swarm of sharks.
-Listen, Captain.

These guys we're dealing with,
they're merciless.

We were looking for them when my boss got…

[sighs]

Anyway, now you know everything.

That's what we're dealing with. Got it?

Either we all live, or we all die.

No one's gonna die.

I've had that boat
for ten years at this point. Okay?

In all that time,

there's never been one accident
on that ship.

Not even a stubbed toe.

-Hey. I'll leave it in your capable hands.
-[glasses clink]

[woman on PA]
Players, welcome to the second game.

We will begin shortly.

[intriguing music playing]

The triangle's the easiest, right?

Yeah.

[players whispering indistinctly]

[chilling music plays]

Wait, wait, wait, what?
What the hell kinda shape is that?

Even an ex-Marine couldn't get that out!

[Jung-bae exclaims in despair]

Really? This one's the easiest to get out?

Oh, God, what is this? What's going on?

Everybody's going to die
because this guy said, "Pick triangle"!

-[player groans]
-I didn't…

You told everyone to go here.

How are you gonna make it right?
What are you gonna do to fix this?

-This isn't--
-You said you already played this before!

-I don't--
-How are you gonna fix this?

You're going to kill us all!
It's your fault!

-It's your fault! It's your fault!
-[Gi-hun breathing nervously]

It's your fault!

[gasps, pants]

[classical music playing on speakers]

[Player 222] Looking good.

Jun-hee!

So you really didn't know I was here?

I thought you were
intentionally ignoring me.

That tracks.

If it's not about you, you don't care.

What are you doing in here?

What do you think?

You told me to buy that crypto.
Did you forget?

[sighs]

You're…

Oh. Guess you didn't forget that.

What about the abortion?
You said that you'd get it.

Well, I didn't.

How do you expect to raise a kid
if you don't have any kind of money?

I'm gonna make some.

I'll get enough to pay off my debts,
and find a house.

I'll do it by myself since I guess
my kid's never gonna know his dad.

So you're just here for the money too?

Look at you. What are you…

How the hell is a pregnant woman
gonna survive here?

I'm not asking for help,
so you can quit acting all worried.

Why start now?

You came here to say that?

No. I wanted to check out your bruises.

They suit you.

[alarm buzzing]

-[mysterious music plays]
-[woman on PA] Your attention, please.

The second game will begin momentarily.

Please follow the staff's instructions

and swiftly make your way
towards the game hall.

-I will now repeat the instructions.
-Hey.

-Once we get out, we should talk.
-The second game will begin momentarily.

-Please follow the staff's instructions.
-I already tried to go.

And swiftly make your way
towards the game hall.

I couldn't because you wanted to stay.

[sighs]

[Jung-bae] Gi-hun.

Team triangle.

All right, buddy,
we're all counting on you.

Oh…

Yeah.

[knocking]

[whispering] What you got?

Don't worry about it.

It's time to play a game. Let's do this.

["The Blue Danube" playing on speakers]

Just pick triangle.

[playful song playing on speakers]

[woman on PA]
Players, welcome to the second game.

We will begin shortly.

This game will be played in teams.

Please take the next ten minutes
to divide into groups of five.

I will now repeat the instructions.

This game will be played in teams.

You will be given ten minutes
to divide into teams of five.

-Dalgona is not a team game though, right?
-[ominous music playing]

It is still Dalgona, isn't it?

Uh…

I don't think it is, no.

If not Dalgona, then what?

I don't know what we're playing.

What? You said you'd done this before.

With the triangle, remember?

Or were you lying?

-I don't know, I'm sorry.
-You're sorry?!

Not as cocky as you were yesterday.

What are you gonna do about everyone
who voted to stay because of your crap?

How are you gonna make it right?

That's enough.

[woman on PA]
Please divide into teams starting now.

[Yeong-sam] Yeah, don't bother.

Why are we even trying to reason
with this crazy bastard?

In the end,
we should've seen though his bullshit.

[scoffs]

Sir, I'd be honored
if you'd team up with me.

Sure, yeah, you won the games,
crazy asshole.

[Yeong-sam] Triangle Dalgona.
Fucking bullshit.

Sir, who should we team up with?

It's not Dalgona?

[whispering] Is that what he just said?

-Yeah, it seems so.
-So then what do we do now?

-Let's go.
-Go? Where are we going?

We need to find a good team.
That's the next step.

Now come, hurry,
or else we won't get into a good one.

Okay.

I really am sorry.

For what it's worth, I still trust you.

If it'd be all right with you,
I'd like for us to be teammates.

Yeah. I don't know what we're doing,
but we should still man up and try.

These games are for kids anyway.

He and I used to play tons growing up.

And I feel the same way.

Sir, I'll play with you three.

If we work together,
then nothing can stand in our way.

Yeah, well said, Marine.

It would've been embarrassing anyways.
Imagine Marines having to play Dalgona.

-Marines!
-If we're gonna do this,

then I wanna play a real game
that's worth the risk.

Something like Buck Buck or Squid Game.
Don't you think?

Yeah.

Sir, I swear,
I'll put my life on the line to win.

All right.
Time to recruit one more person.

[Dae-ho] Sir, you can count on me.
I'll go find a fifth for us.

Okay, Marine. Go and find us
another brave soul, is that clear?

Sir! Yes, sir!

Dismissed.

[Myung-gi] Jun-hee.

Let's do this together.

Thanks, but no.

-You're still gonna need to be on a team.
-Not if you're on it.

Stop acting tough, come on.

Look at you,
you think anyone else will let you join?

What's it to you, huh?
I'll handle it on my own.

Listen, I'm sorry I never called.

Things were really rough for me too.

You know how many lunatics
were out to get me

after everything that went down.

You ignored every one of my calls
for six months.

I thought you died, asshole.

I get it. I'm so sorry.

Now can we just get on a team together?

If you don't make it
out of this place alive,

then you're never gonna have this kid.

I don't trust you.

You're nothing. You're dead to me.

-[Player 395] But that might not work.
-Hey. Look, how about that one?

-Because he looks like a runner?
-Uh-huh.

I told you, we don't know if it's a race…

If you need one more teammate, I…

[scoffs]

We're actually good.

[woman] Excuse me.

I was wondering…
Would you like to do this together?

-It's about physical strength only.
-Hi, hello. You need two, right?

Um, there's two of us.
You think we could join you?

[chuckles] Oh, yeah, sure.
That sounds great.

-Uh, so, where's the other guy?
-Ah. [chuckles nervously]

[scoffs] Sorry, buddy.

You know,
we're just looking for something else.

Ah, I see.

Find some way to ditch Grandma here,
we'll let you join. Huh?

That grandma is actually my mother.

Yong-sik, go join those men, okay?
Your mother will find her own way.

Argh! Oh, for God's sake, Ma,
will you stop it?

I won't abandon you.

And what's going on, why are you so down?

You're usually so bossy and loud. Huh?

Hey, look at me.
I wanna see fire in those eyes, okay?

Go on, lay into me like usual,
start cussing, shout!

Why, you brat, I didn't raise you
to shout in your own mother's face.

-You little shit!
-Yeah!

-You need to learn to respect you elders!
-There she is. That's what you needed.

Oh. Come on, look, look, right there.
There's a team, see?

The last one.

Hello, nice to meet you.

[players conversing indistinctly]

[woman] What's your name?

[man] I'm Park Min-su.

Why'd you come here anyway?

Señorita, excuse me.

I want you to join our team.

Uh, why should I?

Don't you know who this is?
The rap god, Thanos.

♪ Don't need a snap
Kill half the universe with a rap ♪

Hey, wait a minute. We don't know
what we're playing. Picking a woman is--

Thanos the Great will protect you.
Don't worry.

Oh. [chuckles] Thanos, huh?

So, you manage to collect
all the Infinity Stones?

Of course.

I'll destroy anybody who dares
stand in the way of my greatness!

You stick with me from now on,
and you'll be safe, okay?

Yeah, about that…

So I was already talking
to someone else, and--

No problem. Who is it?

-[Nam-gyu sighs]
-What's your name?

Oh. I'm Min-su.

I'm getting mad loser vibes
from this dude. Don't--

What's up? Nice to meet you, my brother.

-Welcome to the Thanos world.
-[Min-su] Uh… Oh.

You're cute. Come on.

-[Dae-ho] Sir, sir. I found someone.
-Oh. Good.

-He'll put his life on the line to win.
-Ah.

[loudly] Ready, sir!

[Jung-bae] Hey, were you in the Marines?

That's right! Cohort 946!

Look at that.

With three Marines on our team,
this is gonna be easy.

What do you guys think? I like him.

[Jun-hee] Excuse me.

Do you think I could join you guys?

I'm sorry,
we got our fifth player a second ago.

Please help me.

I… I'm pregnant.

[Dae-ho] Oh, wow, her belly's big.

[woman on PA] Attention, the team
selection period will end shortly.

-[Hyun-ju] Would you like to…
-Do you two need…

[woman] You insolent fools! How dare you!

You should've sought me out first thing.
But instead I had to come to you?

How insulting.

I ought to cut you to shreds
with a straw cutter.

[timer beeps]

[woman on PA]
The team selection period is now over.

The game you will participate in today
is a Six-Legged Pentathlon.

Team members will start
with their legs tied together.

At each ten-meter interval on the track,

one member of the team
will play a mini-game.

If that player wins,

the team can move on
to the next challenge.

The mini-games are as follows:

Game one, Ddakji.

Game two, Flying Stone.

Game three, Gong-gi.

Game four, Spinning Top.

And finally, game five, Jegi.

You will have five minutes.

To win, you must complete all mini-games

and cross the finish line
before the time runs out.

-Now please decide which player…
-Choose one.

-…will be assigned to each mini-game.
-Pick.

[players muttering indistinctly]

What are you thinking?

[Player 044 mumbling indistinctly]

It's good we got a woman, after all.

You play Gong-gi, right?

I don't get it.
Do girls not play Gong-gi anymore?

No, not even once.

[Jung-bae] Hmm.

Um, I can do Gong-gi. Um, I can play it.

A Marine who knows Gong-gi?

Uh, yeah.
Growing up, I had, uh, four older sisters.

And that meant lots of Gong-gi with them
at home, so I learned how to play.

'Course you did!

A Marine can do anything, right?
Hmm! [chuckles]

For the rest of them, we should each
choose the one we think we're the best at.

-[Jung-bae sighs]
-[Jun-hee] Ddakji for me.

Uh, even against the subway guy,
I still won way more than he did.

Okay. Great.

Uh, so Player 222 takes Ddakji
and I'll play Flying Stone.

You know the company we worked at?

I pitched for their baseball team.
I can easily throw a stone.

That means
just Jegi and Spinning Top are left.

Which of those works for you?

I don't know, but…

I'll do whichever one you think, Gi-hun.

How did you know my name?

Ah, your… your friend over here,
I heard him call you that.

So I thought I'd try it out too.

Does it bother you?

Uh, no, I…

No, I don't mind it.

So then, Gi-hun, what are you good at?

Uh, I don't know, I…

I guess I know Jegi the best.

Hmm. That's fine. I'll do Spinning Top.

-Great.
-Hands in, everyone. You ready?

We can do this.

On the count of three,
everyone say "Victory."

-One, two, three.
-[all] Victory!

[suspenseful music playing]

[woman on PA]
Team 1 and Team 2, get ready to play.

[men sigh]

-Let's go!
-[Team 1] Yeah!

[woman on PA]
With that, let the game begin.

Let's get it. Whoo!

-[lively music playing]
-[Team 1] One, two! One, two!

One, two! One, two! One, two! One!

[Team 1 cheering]

[woman on PA] Success.

[Team 1] One, two! One, two! One, two!

One, two! One, two! One, two!

[Team 2 urging player]

[woman on PA] Fail.

[Team 1] One, two! One, two! One, two!

[Player 178] Okay, focus.
This is it. Focus. Go.

Line it up slowly, and throw.

[woman on PA] Do not step over the line.

Easy. Okay.

-[groans]
-Shit!

GIve me another stone, hurry. Come on.

-No, what?
-Okay.

-Come on! Let's go.
-Hurry.

[Team 1] Ready, and…
One, two! One, two! One, two!

-Grab it!
-[groaning]

[Team 1 clamoring]

Flying Stone's hard.

You miss one,
and it'll be difficult to recover.

[cheering]

-[lively music continues]
-[woman on PA] Success.

[Team 2] One, two! One, two!
One, two! One, two! One, two!

One, two! One, two! One, two!

[woman on PA] Welcome to Gong-gi.

You must toss and grab
each stone consecutively,

and then catch all five stones at once.

Five at once, okay. I got it.

-Here, let's sit down.
-Careful now, I got you.

-[men groan]
-There's no time! You have to hurry!

We still have time.
Stay calm and don't hurry. Aim your shot.

-And stay focused.
-You got this.

-[Player 178] We're still okay. We'll be--
-[Team 1 exclaims]

-Come on, guys, let's go!
-Ready, and…

[Team 1] One, two! One, two! One, two!

-Look at her.
-Good.

-[Player 045] Flip 'em all.
-[Player 395] Finish it, one go!

[groans]

[woman on PA] Fail.

-Please start over from the beginning.
-Dae-ho.

Practice that flip while we wait.

-Oh, sure.
-Good.

[Player 195] We're gonna do fine.
It's like this.

Your see it, right? It's an easy throw.

Aim at it and just throw it already!
Go on!

[players exclaiming]

You son of bitch,
you can't even throw a rock?

-I thought you said you were good at this!
-We gotta get it!

Let's go!

[Team 1] One, two! One, two! One, two!

[Player 341] You see what she just did?

-Okay.
-Good.

[Player 045] Good, now finish it.
All in one go. So we can move on.

-All in one.
-[Player 395] Don't screw this up!

I need quiet!

[Team 2 cheers]

-[Player 341] You did it!
-[Player 045] You got 'em all!

-[woman on PA] Success.
-[all cheering]

-[Player 395] Hurry, get up!
-[Player 016] Line up. We have to go fast.

-Hold on. I need to get my arm around.
-Hey, hey, look.

-I got it.
-Don't rush this, okay?

Take it slow and hit it. Come on. Aim it.

[Team 1 cheers]

-[woman on PA] Fail.
-[Player 416] He knocked it down!

[woman on PA]
The player stepped over the line.

[Player 416] You didn't check the line
before you threw?

You fucking idiot!
Why the fuck would you step on the line!

That's enough, there's no time.
We have to go get the stone.

-All right. Come on.
-Let's go.

One, two! One, two! One, two!

You have to wrap it up tight.
No, listen, it's okay. Look.

Just stay calm, relax.
Go again, you're fine.

-Okay, okay, okay.
-[exhales deeply]

-[Player 178] Please… Please!
-[drumroll]

-[Player 189] You stupid fuck.
-[Player 178 crying] You son of a bitch.

You just killed us. We're all gonna
fucking die because of you. Oh, my God.

-[all sobbing]
-Let's go.

Go.

[Player 395 breathing heavily]

[players exclaiming]

-Come on, pick it up.
-We have to try again.

[clamoring]

What are you doing?

-[straining]
-Come on. Grab it!

[Player 286] Hurry up and grab it!

Hmm. I think messing up Spinning Top
is gonna take even longer to recover from.

[Team 2 clamoring]

One, two! One, two! One, two!

-Excuse me. Sure you want Spinning Top?
-[praying indistinctly]

Uh, if you don't feel confident,
then let me do it instead.

The gods of heaven and earth
choose the path

and mine is already decided.

You idiots,
you can stay right where you are.

I don't like
how that skank disrespects us.

[scoffs] Being a shaman
doesn't make her special.

[Player 395 breathing heavily]

-[softly] Please.
-[blows]

Hurry, do it!

[players cheering]

-I did it!
-[woman on PA] Success.

-[Player 395] I did it!
-[chilling music playing]

-I'm done, I'm done. I hit it.
-[team weeping]

[sobbing] And I didn't step
on the line either.

Fucking idiot. You fucking idiot!

[woman on PA] Success.

We did it. Okay, here we go.

-All right.
-Hurry up, hurry!

-Hey, see? We did it. Guys, I… Oh!
-[others gasp]

No, wait. Don't shoot. No!
Don't… don't do it!

[timer beeps]

[woman on PA] Time's up.
You did not pass the finish line.

[players gasping]

[players screaming]

[mysterious music playing]

[woman on PA] The following players
have been eliminated:

Players 016, 045, 178, 189, 198,

254, 286, 341, 395 and 416.

[man 1] We should have left!

Now we're all gonna die!

We're gonna die because half of you said
you wanted to keep doing this!

[man 2] Now what are you gonna do?!

-You think you won't die like they did?
-[humming]

-Those teams just died because of you.
-What?

Yo, think you could give me
a taste of one of those?

[Thanos] Huh?

The things
inside the cross around your neck.

I saw you take one earlier.

I don't know
what the fuck you're talking about.

If I get nervous and screw up,
that means we'll all go down.

Look at my hands, dude.
They're shaking like crazy.

-[woman on PA] Attention, players.
-Look, Nam-su.

-Nam-gyu.
-Look, Nam-gyu.

Please wait
as our staff tidies up the game hall

before the start of the next race.

You know what this is?

Ecstasy?

Ketamine?

No, this is brand-new,
and it's fucking crazy, man.

It's too much for you.

Dude.

When I was a promoter,
I did all of it, bro.

You used to go to the club
when I worked there.

I would bring in all kinds
of that crazy exotic shit for you.

[Thanos sighs]

You little junkie.

What's wrong?

Oh, it's nothing.

What's your name, again?

Oh, um, Min-su.

Min-su.

Min-su, what's that old
Admiral Yi Sun-sin quote?

"Those who seek life shall die.
Those who seek death shall live."

Okay, everyone?
Just go in like you're gonna die anyway.

Tell yourself
you don't care what happens to you.

We'll win this thing, take our cash,
and get the fuck out of here.

Hey, don't order us around.

Me?

Yeah, you. Nice shaky hands, asshole.

Look who's on her period.

I told you we shouldn't let a girl join.
They're too emotional.

That's so pathetic.

Look who's talking, nervous tweaker.

Fuck you, bitch.

-[doors opening]
-[forklift beeping]

[woman on PA] Attention, all players.

Please wait patiently
as our staff tidies up the game hall

before the start of the next race.

[labored breathing]

[No-eul] Open it.

That's an order.

[weakly] You can save me.

[players gasping]

[woman on PA]
Will the next two teams please rise?

[breath trembling]

[tense music playing]

Hey, look at me.

My name's Cho Hyun-ju.

What's yours?

[shakily] Young-mi.

Kim Young-mi.

Listen, from the very second
you asked to play together,

I believed in you.

I could feel how brave you were, Young-mi.

Now I need you to believe in yourself
same as I do.

Can you do that?

I will try.

That's right. I'm Jang Geum-ja,
and I lived through the Korean War.

So I know
a few playground games won't kill me.

All right, come on. Let's do this.
Together, we can win this.

Yeah, and I'm the son of Jang Geum-ja,
who is a survivor.

Park Yong-sik. Hi.

And you? Your name is?

[shakily] Seon-nyeo.

Shaman of the Sea. [breath trembling]

Team, listen up.
We can get through this together.

Okay? Let's show
all the other players here

that these games are nothing to us.

I know we can do it.

[Yong-sik breathes deeply]

[woman on PA]
Team 3 and Team 4, get ready to play.

[praying indistinctly]

-[gunshot]
-[Seon-nyeo grunts]

[eerie music playing]
