Original subtitles

Staff members, please make your way through the venue

and clear all eliminated players from the arena.

I will repeat the announcement.

Staff members, please make your way through the venue

and clear all eliminated players…

…from the arena.

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.

Whoa!

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, bro?

Huh?

The metal cross, with the little things inside?

- No, sorry. - Are you sure, man?

I said I haven't seen it.

Oh, fuck! Come on.

Oh, where the fuck is it?

I, uh… I might have dropped something while we were in there,

and I really need it, so…

I gotta head back in and look for it real quick.

Players can't return to the arena.

Oh, Jesus!

Please, just…

Look, man, I'm begging you.

I can't do anything without it.

God damn it!

I gotta find…

I gotta find it.

I… No, no, no!

Push through it. We don't have time.

I don't get it.

Why are you helping me?

Just do as I say if you want to live.

Shh. Hush, little sweet pea.

There, it's okay.

It's because she's hungry.

You wanna give it a shot?

There we go.

Ah.

You have made it through yet another game in the series.

Congratulations to you all.

Now, if I may have your attention,

I will announce the results of the fourth game.

Over the course of the game, another 110 players were eliminated,

bringing the current number of remaining players to 25.

The total prize is now 43.1 billion won,

and each player's share is 1.724 billion won.

We will now begin another round of voting

to determine if you wish to proceed to the next game.

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 there and check it out.

MR. CHOI

What's up?

Detective Hwang, it's just like I thought.

I did some digging,

and things are a little fishy with our Captain.

I talked to everyone I could around here, and no one knows a thing about him.

I checked with the local fishermen and the folks at the market

to find out where his house is,

where he went to school, if he's got relatives,

and not a single person knew.

His documents say he's registered as Park Yeong-gil,

but no one here recognized that name.

They were asking me who he was.

- Now how's that for suspicious, huh? - That doesn't mean

we should jump to the conclusion that he killed the drone pilot.

I know that!

Still, though, you have to admit it stinks.

And that's not all.

You know Captain Ko from the other boat? He's supposedly this Moojin native, right?

That's what Park told everyone.

So I started asking around, and no one knows him either.

My friend's from here, and he's never even heard of the guy.

It's like he doesn't even exist.

Detective, check this out. We've got a visual on the island.

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

Okay. I'll keep looking into it.

Just watch out for 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 saying to themselves,

"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,

the players will certainly be nervous about voting against the majority.

You will vote in order of player number,

from lowest to highest.

Player 039, please cast your vote.

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

If you wish to stop playing, press the X button.

Player 084.

Player 096.

Player 100.

Player 124.

Player 125.

Player 149.

Player 163.

Player 192.

Sir.

Can we please end this madness?

This old lady here is begging you, please.

Everybody.

Everybody.

Listen to reason, I beg you.

Stop this right now.

Come on.

Listen, if the money's not enough yet,

I'll let you take all of my share and split it.

Please, it's yours.

I swear, you can take it all.

Look,

I've spent many years on this earth.

If I die in here,

it won't make any difference.

Yes. But these two…

These two, the child and her mother holding her, right there…

We can't let them die, can we?

Let's all finally vote to stop the game.

I'm begging you, please.

Player 192, please cast your vote.

Don't hit blue.

Sir, please,

get that little girl and her mother out of here, for God's sake!

Please. Please have mercy on this old woman! Please!

Let the girls go, both of them!

Sir, please let them go! Let them leave!

Identify the bodies.

What are their identities?

- Number 007. - Number 025.

Follow those soldiers.

There's a surveillance camera in your room. Be careful.

It is now the final player's turn to vote.

Player 456, please cast your vote.

Player 456 has forfeited his vote.

Of the 25 total players remaining, 16 voted O, 8 voted X,

and one abstained.

In accordance with the results of your free and democratic vote,

we will proceed with the next game tomorrow.

I hope everyone here has a pleasant evening.

Thank you all.

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?

Eh, 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.

- Right, tell me about it. - Ah!

Oh, my God.

I actually did that to my son. I really did.

- Harsh. Harsh! - You guys think I'm kidding?

What's the situation?

Numbers 005, 007 and 025 are all dead.

Who's responsible?

Looks like a gunfight, and Number 016 killed the others.

Number 016? You're saying the surgeon did this?

Correct.

He's the only one whose body wasn't in the operating room.

Which soldiers are not in their quarters?

Numbers 005, 007, 011,

and 025 haven't returned yet.

What about 016?

He's in his room.

The tide's coming in.

We should get out of here before the currents get too strong.

Bring back the drone.

You got it.

Hold on.

Go fly the drone over the shore again.

What is it? You see something?

That beach… I think I've been there before.

Captain Park, put us right on that beach, as close as you can get.

We'll scrape up against the reef. No way.

Captain, please. I have to check this out.

You should eat.

I know you don't want to, but you need food.

That little girl of yours can't survive on her own.

And make sure you drink water.

I'm sorry.

I'm the reason…

Don't you ever think like that.

From now on,

your child is your only concern.

Forget about everything else.

All that matters is you and your baby.

Hmm?

Once the lights are off,

you're to bring Number 016 to me.

And track down 011. I want to know her location.

Yes, sir.

Number 011 is right here, sir.

The mess downstairs,

was that your doing?

Why?

We just take some organs

from useless trash who are already going to die.

Why risk your life over that?

From where I stand,

you're the one risking yours.

What do you want?

016 and I will both patrol the outer perimeter tomorrow.

Number 016? Him?

So you and the doctor know each other?

I also want you to get us a boat.

It won't be so simple to get out of here.

You know that.

The VIPs are here now, right?

It would look a lot better for you

if the two of us just disappeared.

Am I right?

Jun-ho.

Come with me.

This definitely is the place where I was shot.

Are you sure?

I'm positive.

We're almost there.

Their island has to be nearby.

All right. It'll be dark soon. Get back to the boat.

We'll search first thing tomorrow.

There's no doubt in my mind. I'm sure we can find it now.

- Keep a lookout. - Yes, sir.

This mess we're in, do you still think it's all your fault?

No matter how I look at it…

life really is just truly unfair.

That's how it works.

Bad people don't care.

They'll ruin the world and blame everyone else.

Then good people…

Well, the good ones always blame themselves

for every little thing that happens,

ripping their own hearts to shreds.

My Yong-sik was like that.

He was such a soft kid, and so damn clueless.

It was his fault the company he worked for closed.

It was his fault he got beaten up by those dirty loan sharks.

It was his fault that he got scammed at the casino.

Even when a friend he thought he could trust stole from him,

he just drank himself under the table.

Because he still blamed himself.

Then there was this one day I…

I was so sick of how weak he was.

I just snapped and I started yelling.

"I pushed you out of me, and this is what I get?"

"You're pathetic."

"I'll just start telling myself I never had a son."

"Now get the hell out of my sight, you spineless little piece of shit!"

That night after I screamed at him,

he took a bunch of pills

and left a note saying he was sorry for being such a failure.

As I dragged him out,

loaded him into the car and rushed him to the hospital,

I started praying to God.

I swore if he let him live, I would do anything, really.

Even dive head-first into a pit of fire if I had to.

And guess how things wound up.

In the end…

I was the one who killed him.

I stood right there and killed him.

My only child, and I ended his life.

Sir,

Jun-hee

and her little girl,

they need someone to help them. Someone like you.

Listen, sir, I still believe the reason you came back here

is to save everyone.

I hate to disappoint you.

I…

I just can't be that person.

I don't know how I got here at this old age.

Did I live the wrong life? Is that why I'm here?

Or is it just because…

It's like you said,

those evil folks upstairs wanted it like this.

I couldn't tell you. I'm not sure.

All I'm saying is

that child's completely innocent in all this.

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

Sir, please, I'm begging you.

Jun-hee needs you.

They need you to survive.

Instead of looking after me and my son,

save Jun-hee.

Save Jun-hee and her baby, sir.

I'm begging you.

Please, I'm begging, sir. Please help.

Get them out of here, please.

- Hey, whoa. Hey, stop the car. - Okay.

I think that's the house.

- Woo-seok, um… - Huh?

…what exactly are you looking for in there?

Park's a traitor, and I simply need to prove it.

- Doesn't it seem like… - Hmm?

…you're taking things a little far?

Now you're gonna go break into someone's house?

I just don't like this, dude.

I won't ask you to go in. Just keep a lookout from the van.

Whoa, bro. Is that thing real?

Yeah. It was his.

The guy who killed the boss.

Keep your eyes peeled.

"Park Yeong-gil." This is the right place.

Ah, shit!

What the hell is he thinking?

Shit!

Fuck!

Attention, staff. It's time to start the day.

Morning roll call will be held in ten minutes.

Please wake up and prepare for your assignments.

I will repeat the announcement.

Morning roll call will be held in ten minutes.

Please wake up and prepare for your assignments.

Officer, she's been given the key to the boat.

Go back down to the operating room.

Is there a problem, sir?

Something isn't right.

This doesn't make sense.

See if you missed anything. Be thorough.

Ms. Jang…

Player 149, eliminated.

Officer, this is the operating room.

Number 016 is dead.

What, the doctor's dead?

I just confirmed it with my scanner.

This has to be Number 011's work.

She put 016's body in a player's tracksuit to throw us off.

Then who just walked out of his room?

If I'm right, then that's Player 246.

Here are your assigned duties for today.

Numbers 001 through 010, monitor the game venue.

Numbers 011 through 020, patrol the outer perimeter.

Numbers 021 through 035, patrol the interior facilities.

Shit.

Damn it.

Huh.

Rock, paper, scissors. Minus One.

Disqualified.

Son of a bitch!

May I have your attention, please.

All players, the fifth 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.

All players, the fifth game will begin momentarily.

Please follow the staff's instructions

and swiftly make your way towards the game hall.

Ah, shit.

Huh?

What?

Police!

Hands above your head!

Now stand up slow!

Jun-hee.

I'll take the kid.

I don't need you.

You might accidentally hurt your child.

Isn't 222 at rather 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 you 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.

Let me show you.

What on earth is that?

I think I was afraid that

if I didn't keep her, I'd always be alone.

I hung on to the thought that my baby would be my family.

Someone who'd never leave me.

And that no matter how hard things got in life…

I'd be happier 'cause I'd have someone else.

Instead, 'cause of me…

Hyun-ju and Ms. Jang…

Because of me, they're…

That wasn't your fault.

We all chose to come here.

Ms. Jang chose.

Hyun-ju chose.

And so did you.

We all made our own choices.

I have a daughter too, you know.

I was never a good father to her, but…

watching as she grew up,

from the day I first saw her little face…

those were the greatest days of my entire existence.

You keep your baby safe, no matter what.

I'll help you do that.

Fuck! This is horseshit.

222's ankle's all fucked up. What…

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 anyway…

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

I like that.

That sounds fun.

You should do it.

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!

Good God! What is this thing?

I think… we're supposed to cross the bridge.

Welcome to the fifth game.

The game you'll be playing today is Jump Rope.

Each player must make their way across the bridge

while jumping over the rope as it swings.

To pass, you must reach the other side within 20 minutes.

Oh, my God.

The order in which you cross the bridge within the time limit

is entirely up to you.

Come on. Sit for a minute.

And now, let the game begin.

Knock, knock

Who is there?

Your little friend

Come on in

Whoa! Whoa!

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

Oh, fuck.

Let's go together.

I'll help you cross.

What about her?

The game will be over in 20 minutes.

Leave the baby here till then

and come get it afterwards.

In order to continue,

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

Any player who fails to do so in the allotted time will be eliminated.

She isn't a player like the rest of us.

Every single one of you is a player.

There are no exceptions.

Are you kidding me?

That child has absolutely nothing to do with this!

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 till it's over."

Hey, everyone, we can't be wasting time like this.

Listen, we need someone to step up and go first!

Oh, yeah?

Go right ahead, buddy.

'Cause if not, you should shut the fuck up.

What's going on? We're just gonna stand around?

- Come on, guys, someone's gotta do it. - Why don't you go first then?

- We still got time, we should… - Uh, sir?

I don't know. Let's think for a second.

Will you bring her across with you when you go?

Please, sir.

Nam-gyu?

You sick or something?

Hey.

Get out of here.

Go, you stupid bitch.

Hey. You feeling shitty cause of this?

You little shit, give it…

Fucking touch me again, and I'll throw it!

Hey.

Min-su.

Min-su…

I'm sorry! I'm sorry, dude. Please, I mean it.

I'm sorry for everything.

I'm sorry, I…

I can't, man. I can't do this without that shit.

I'm begging you, Min-s…

Oh, I'm so sorry. Please.

Fuck, man, I can't. I need it…

Oh, shit.

If you want it so bad, go.

You…

Fuck you!

What? You scared? Huh?

You fucking pussy.

Yes!

Finally there's one on the bridge.

Let's go, baby! Yeah!

Player 124, eliminated.

- Oh, my God! - What a great start.

I'll come back for you once we're across.

That's okay, you don't have to. I'll make it there.

You don't stand a chance with your bad leg.

I swear 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!

You can do it.

What's he doing?

- The bridge. There's a gap in it. - Huh?

You can do it, 456!

Jump! Jump!

Just jump!

All right! Whoa! You're awesome, 456! Whoo-hoo! Yeah!

Come on.

There you go!

- Player 456, pass. - Crazy motherfucker!

He did it.

I knew it! I knew he could do it!

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

We saw it.

Congratulations! The baby made it. You're halfway there.

Jun-hee!

I'll be right there, okay?

Jun-hee!

It's okay. Just wait there.

- Player 096, pass. - You got this!

Hurry! One more jump!

That's it, come on!

- Damn it! - Player 312, eliminated.

What are you doing?

What do you think?

I'm playing.
