Original subtitles

All staff, please clear away the eliminated players.

Let me repeat.

All staff, please clear away...

Mamma mia.

Damn, that was close.

Good thing I like to go hunting.

I owe you one.

Oh, no worries. That was a blast.

Come on.

You two look like you had some fun.

Bit of a scrape.

How about you two?

Oh, we're just getting started.

I heard there's more of them upstairs.

-Yeah? -Yeah.

Let's go.

SQUID GAME 3

EPISODE 3 IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT

Hey.

Have you seen my necklace?

The cross with the pills inside.

-No. -Are you sure?

I haven't seen it.

Where did I lose it?

Damn...

I left something in the arena. I have to find it.

I... I'd like to look for it real quick.

No, you can't go back in there.

Come on! Just...

Please, okay?

I can't do anything without it.

Fuck! I have to go find it!

Suck it up. We don't have time.

But...

why are you helping me?

Just do as I say if you want to live.

Oh, sweet pea. I know, dear.

She's just hungry.

Do you want to try?

Congratulations to all of you for making it through the fourth game.

Here are the results of the fourth game.

In the fourth game, 35 players were eliminated.

We now have 25 players remaining.

The prize money accumulated up to this point is 43.1 billion won,

and each person's share is 1.724 billion won.

You will now take a vote to decide whether to continue the games or not.

I always enjoyed watching it from the outside,

but it was a completely new experience putting on the uniform and taking part.

What can I even compare it to?

It was like I was a Maasai tribesman stalking the African wilderness.

I've done plenty of hunting in Africa,

but this... was on another level.

Fuck, I...

I was the only one who didn't go?

That fucking chopper was late, man!

I spent so much money on that piece of junk.

Oh, you sure your chopper was the problem?

Or were you too drunk to wake up on time?

You know something?

When you don't open your mouth, you're kind of attractive.

I see why Chairman Oh passed the reins to you.

The work you've done here is top-notch.

Not only giving us the pleasure of watching the game,

but also letting us participate.

I'm just upholding Chairman Oh's wishes

to better entertain my guests.

Shall we raise a glass to the memory of the legendary Chairman Oh?

-To Chairman Oh! -Chairman Oh!

Officer. This is Manager 004.

Go ahead.

We've lost contact with the operating room.

Go down and check for yourself.

MR. CHOI

Hello?

Hwang, it's just as I thought.

I did some digging, and there's something fishy about Captain Park.

For one thing, nobody around here knows much about him.

I've been asking the market vendors and fishermen,

trying to find out where he's from, whether he has any family,

which school he went to.

But no one seems to know.

Also, his resident registration has the name Park Yeong-gil,

but no one even recognizes that name.

They kept asking if that's really his name. How's that for suspicious?

We still can't conclude that he killed the drone operator.

I know, but there's definitely something fishy about him.

That's not all. Remember Captain Ko from the other boat?

Park introduced him as a local here in Moojin.

But no one seems to know anything about him either!

My friend from the area hasn't even heard of him.

He's practically a ghost around here.

Come on!

We've got a visual on the island.

I have to go. I'll call you back.

Okay, I'll look into it further.

Just keep an eye on Captain Park.

Let's go.

Bring the drone a little lower.

Oh, it's time for the voting.

Seems like it.

I'm telling you, watching the voting this year?

So fun.

Oh, it was more exciting than the actual games.

1.7 billion won is over a million dollars.

That's a lot of money for people like them.

Suppose they want to stop here.

The players down there have made it this far

by killing each other.

Most of them are thinking now,

"If more people die, how much more money can I get?"

Among the 25 left, 16 are already wearing a circle patch.

After that riot in the dark,

people will be nervous about voting against the majority.

The player with the lowest number will vote first.

Player 039, please cast your vote.

If you wish to continue the games, press the O button.

If you wish to end them, press the X button.

Player 084.

Player 096.

Player 100.

Player 124.

Player 125.

Player 149.

Player 163.

Player 192.

Sir.

Can we please stop here?

Have some pity on this old woman. I beg you.

Everyone, please.

I'm begging you to put a stop to this now.

If the money still isn't enough for you,

I'll give you all my share.

You can take all my money.

Look,

I've lived long enough.

It wouldn't matter if I died here.

But we can't let that baby and its mom die, can we?

Everyone, please.

I'm begging you.

Player 192, please cast your vote.

Sir, please!

Please save Jun-hee and the baby.

Please have mercy on this old woman! I beg you!

Please let the baby and its mom out!

Please let them out...

Identify them.

The identities of the dead?

-This is Number 007. -This is Number 025.

Follow those soldiers.

There's a camera in the room too. Be careful.

It is the final voter's turn.

Player 456, please cast your vote.

Player 456 has forfeited his vote.

Of the 25 voters,

16 votes for O, 8 votes for X, and one abstention.

In accordance with your democratic vote, the next game will take place tomorrow.

I hope you have a pleasant night.

Good work.

Well, our host was exactly right.

There was a bigger gap in the votes than I thought.

I almost cried when I heard that old lady's speech.

It was touching.

Do you think she meant it when she said she'd give up all her money?

She's probably senile.

This is the nutjob that kills her own son

just to save some baby and a woman she just met.

I think I understand her.

After all, there's many times I've wanted to bury my son alive.

What's the situation?

Numbers 005, 007 and 025 are dead.

Who did that?

There was a gunfight.

It looks like Number 016 did it.

Number 016?

The doctor who removes the organs?

Yes.

He's the only one whose body is missing from the operating room.

Check on the soldiers' quarters.

Numbers 005, 007, 011,

and 025 haven't returned yet.

Where's 016?

Back in the room.

It's low tide now.

Let's go before the currents get any stronger.

Bring the drone back in.

Yes, sir.

Hold on.

Fly the drone back to shore.

Why? Do you see something?

I feel like I've been here before.

Captain Park, get us as close to the shore as possible.

The reefs make it too dangerous.

Please. I need to check something.

You should eat.

I know it's hard, but you still need to eat.

Mom has to live for the baby to live.

Drink water so you don't choke.

I'm sorry.

It's all because of me.

Don't ever think that.

From now on,

this baby is your only concern.

Don't think of anything except you and your baby.

Okay?

After lights-out,

bring Number 016 to me.

And track down Number 011. Report location.

Yes, sir.

Number 011 is here.

Was the operating room your doing?

Why?

We're taking a few organs from trash that's going to die anyway.

Why are you risking your life?

You're the one taking that risk.

What do you want?

Tomorrow, assign me and Number 016 to outer perimeter patrol.

You mean the doctor?

Do you know each other?

And get us a boat.

You can't escape this place that easily.

You know that.

I heard that the VIPs have arrived.

It'd be better for you if we disappeared quietly.

Isn't that right?

Jun-ho.

Come with me.

This is where I was shot.

Are you sure?

Yes, I'm sure.

The island must be somewhere nearby.

Very well.

It'll be dark soon, so come back to the boat for now.

We'll start searching at dawn tomorrow.

We can definitely find the island now.

-Check the area. -Yes, sir.

Are you blaming yourself for everything that has happened?

No matter how you look at it,

life just is unfair.

Bad people do bad things,

but they blame others and go on to live in peace.

Good people, on the other hand,

beat themselves up about the smallest things.

My Yong-sik was just like that.

He was a soft kid. Foolishly so.

He blamed himself when his employer went bankrupt,

when his creditors beat him up,

and when he was conned at the gambling den.

He even blamed himself

when a friend he trusted ran off with his money.

He drank himself stupid that night.

One day, I got sick of him being so pathetic.

I couldn't take it anymore, so I yelled at him.

"I regret all the pain I went through to bring you into this world."

"I'll just pretend I never had a son like you."

"So get out of my sight now, you useless idiot!"

Later that night...

he overdosed.

He had left a suicide note saying he was sorry for being such a failure.

As I rushed him to the hospital in my cart,

I prayed to God.

I promised that I'd do anything if my boy was spared.

Even jump into a pit of fire, if that's what it took.

But guess what?

In the end...

I killed him.

With my own hands, I...

I killed my own child.

Sir.

Please will you help...

Jun-hee and her baby?

I still believe that you came here to save us all.

I'm sorry.

I...

I'm not that kind of person.

I don't know if I ended up here at this age

because I've lived my life wrong,

or because of the awful people you said were upstairs.

But that baby hasn't done anything wrong.

It's not her fault she was born in this hellhole.

Sir, please.

Please help Jun-hee and her baby survive.

Instead of me and my son,

please save Jun-hee and her baby.

Please, sir.

I beg you.

Please, sir.

-Hey, stop the van here. -Okay.

I think it's that house over there.

-But, brother. -Yeah?

What are you looking for exactly?

Some proof that Captain Park is up to no good.

-But, brother. -Yeah.

Do you have to go this far?

You're breaking into someone's house.

It feels kinda wrong.

I'm not asking you to come with me. Just keep watch.

Brother.

Is that a real gun?

Yes, it belonged to the bastard

who killed the boss.

Stay on the lookout.

"Park Yeong-gil." This is it.

Damn it.

What is he thinking?

Damn it!

Huh?

It's time to start the day.

We will do a roll call in ten minutes.

Please get out of bed and prepare for the day.

Let me repeat.

We will do a roll call in ten minutes.

Please get out of bed and prepare for the day.

Officer,

the boat key has been delivered.

Go back down to the operating room.

Is there a problem, sir?

Something doesn't feel right.

It doesn't make sense.

Check again to see if you missed anything.

Ms. Jang...

Player 149, eliminated.

Officer, this is the operating room.

Number 016 is dead.

The doctor is dead?

All soldiers...

I just scanned his chip and confirmed it.

I believe Number 011 was behind this.

She dressed 016 in the tracksuit to make him look like a player.

Then who's the one from Number 016's room?

It's Player 246.

Here are your duties for today.

Numbers 001 to 010, monitor the game arena.

Numbers 011 to 020, guard the outer perimeter.

Numbers 021 to 035, guard the interior facilities.

Damn it.

Huh?

Huh?

Rock, paper, scissors. Minus One.

Disqualified.

That son of a bitch.

Huh?

Attention, please.

The fifth game will begin momentarily.

Please follow the instructions from our staff.

Let me repeat.

The fifth game will begin momentarily.

Please follow the instructions from our staff.

Damn it.

Huh?

Huh?

Police!

Don't move.

Stand up slowly.

Jun-hee.

Give me the baby.

It's okay.

The baby could get hurt.

Isn't 222 at too much of a disadvantage?

She's got an injured leg, and now even a baby.

That's too many handicaps.

Did anyone bet on her for the next game?

Who in their right mind would do that?

I did.

Can I ask why?

I got drunk, and uh, pressed the wrong number.

Of course he did.

Oh, but I'm not giving up yet.

There's a saying that God created mothers

because he couldn't be everywhere at once.

Perhaps there's something that 222 could do.

That depends on what the next game is.

Please, tell us about it. We're all so curious.

Then I'll show you.

What on earth is that?

I was afraid I'd end up on my own again

if I didn't keep the baby.

I thought the baby was going to be my family,

someone who'd be with me forever.

No matter how hard it might be,

I thought having my own baby would make me happier.

But because of me...

both Hyun-ju and Ms. Jang...

Because of me...

It's not your fault.

We made a choice.

Ms. Jang, Hyun-ju,

and you.

We made our own choices.

I had a daughter too.

I was never a good father.

But watching her grow up after she was born...

was the happiest time of my life.

Protect your baby, no matter what.

I'll help you.

Fuck! This is horseshit!

222's ankle's all fucked up! What the...

What the hell is she supposed to do up there?

Seems like you're screwed.

May I make a proposal then?

Yeah. What proposal?

Why don't we have the baby join its mother in the game?

Oh, you wanna put the baby in the game too?

Okay, uh, how the fuck does that help me?

Kinda seems like more of a disadvantage.

Well, like you said, a mother will do anything to save her child.

Who knows?

This might turn 222 into some kind of Marvel superhero.

Like Wonder Woman?

That's actually a DC superhero. But anyways...

It seems reasonable to me. Shall we give it a try?

I like that.

That sounds fun.

-You should do it! -Ah...

Yeah, fuck it, fuck it. Let's do it.

I mean, I'm screwed either way, right? So,

I'll make this sacrifice for the, uh,

for the sake of your entertainment.

-Here they come! -Come on!

What the hell is this?

I think we're supposed to get to the other side.

Welcome to the fifth game.

The game you will be playing is Jump Rope.

You must cross the bridge as you jump over the rotating rope

and get to the other side within 20 minutes.

You may decide on the order amongst yourselves.

Sit down for a second.

Now, let the game begin.

♪ Knock, knock ♪

♪ Who is there? ♪

♪ Your little friend ♪

♪ Come on in ♪

♪ Little friend, little friend Turn around ♪

♪ Little friend, little friend Touch the ground ♪

♪ Little friend, little friend Touch your toe ♪

♪ Little friend, little friend Now away you go ♪

Come with me.

I'll help you.

What about my baby?

The game will be over in 20 minutes.

You can leave the baby here until then and pick it up afterwards.

All players must make it across the bridge within the time limit.

Any player who fails to cross the bridge within the time limit will be eliminated.

My baby is not a player.

Everyone here is a player.

Don't be ridiculous.

The baby has nothing to do with this game!

Any player

who fails to cross the bridge within the time limit will be eliminated.

This is getting exciting!

You can do it!

You be strong, 222!

I thought you'd given up.

Well, as Yogi Berra once said,

"It ain't over 'til it's over."

We can't just keep wasting time like this!

Somebody has to step up and go first!

All right.

You go first then.

You can't do it, you're all talk.

But we can't just stand here and do nothing.

Somebody has to go.

-You go ahead. -We have time.

Mr. Seong.

Let's think for a second.

Take my baby with you.

Please.

Nam-gyu.

Are you feeling okay?

Hey.

Piss off.

Piss off, you fucking loser.

Hey, is it because of this?

Fuck! Give it to me.

Fuck off! Piss me off and I'll throw it!

Look, Min-su.

Min-su.

I'm sorry, okay? I'm sorry. For everything.

I'm sorry. I really can't do this without it.

Please, please.

I sincerely apologize. I really need it.

Fuck!

If you want it, go get it.

What's the fucking matter? You scared?

You fucking loser.

Yes!

Finally, there's one on the bridge!

Let's go, baby!

Player 124, eliminated.

What a great start!

I'll get the baby to the other side and come back.

It's okay. I can do it by myself.

You can't with that leg.

I promise I'll come back.

Excuse me.

Wait. Why's he doing this?

I just can't understand that guy.

He's crazy to rejoin this game after winning it.

But even so,

I'll root for him if he's helping 222.

You go, 456!

Why isn't he going?

What's he doing?

There must be a gap in the bridge.

You can do it, 456!

Jump! Jump!

Just jump!

All right! Whoa!

You're awesome, 456!

Player 456, pass.

-He did it. -I knew it!

I knew he could do it!

I knew 456 could do it! You saw that, right?

-Yes, I did. -Congratulations!

The baby made it. You're halfway there.

Jun-hee!

I'll come get you right away!

Jun-hee!

It's okay.

Just wait.

-Player 096, pass. -You got this!

Come on. One more jump!

That's it! Get in!

Fuck!

Player 312, eliminated.

What are you doing?

What do you think I'm doing?

I'm playing the game.
