-What are you doing? -What do you think?

I'm playing.

Think about it.

If no one's able to cross the bridge, then it'll be just you and me.

Then we both press X in the final vote and get out of here with the prize money.

22.7 billion each!

Fuck you!

Son of a bitch!

Player 276, eliminated.

No one can cross the bridge now!

Game over, motherfuckers!

-Stop that. -What are you talking about?

Shh! You should help me fight!

Bring it!

Come on, if you think you can take me!

Come on, you fucks! Let's do this!

Player 209, eliminated.

Wow.

-Player 163, eliminated. -This just keeps getting

more and more interesting.

I can't jump anymore. Keep going.

I can't, they're blocking the way!

What are you waiting for?

Just shove your way through!

Go across! If you don't, we're all dead!

Bring it, come on.

Let me go through alone,

and I'll give you half my share!

And I'll help kick the rest of them off!

Fucking asshole! I'll kill you!

What…

Players 192 and 442, eliminated.

Turn around.

T… Turn around now?

Yes, turn back around now!

No, I'm not doing that.

You want to die here? Go back now!

Turn back right now!

Player 377, eliminated.

You okay?

Oh, shit!

Player 349, eliminated.

What you staring at?

I just did you all a favor.

Let me through!

-I can't jump any longer! -Then die, bro!

You should move now.

Are you shitting me? Don't you get it, man?

This way, we get the money all to ourselves.

What if I decide to push you from behind?

Then I wouldn't have to split the prize.

Move!

It's starting to spin faster. Come on, go!

Player 100, pass.

Player 336, pass.

Hurry the fuck up!

Jun-hee.

Let's go. We're running out of time.

What the hell are you gonna do, Jun-hee? Just sit here and wait till you die?

-You're pissed off at me, I get that. -Why'd you do it?

For the money?

She helped save me and the baby, you know.

And then you stabbed her with that fucking knife that I gave you.

How was I gonna know that? How could I know that she was helping you?

Come on, I didn't know!

Jun-hee,

I was just trying to find you.

I wanted to keep you safe, and our kid too.

I wasn't being selfish, okay?

I want to get us out, and start a new life with you.

A happier life for the both of us. That's why I did it.

So let's go.

Seriously.

I think we gotta get out of here, Jun-hee.

We gotta survive and take care of our little kid.

I'll give you a hand.

Gonna carry me across?

Think you can?

I created that little girl.

She's got nothing to do with a piece of shit like you.

I don't wanna see you or ever think about you again.

Keep the hell away from us.

Move it, let's go!

Yo, what the fuck?

Piece of shit!

You fucking idiot! We could've ended the game here.

I can't jump anymore.

Get off the bridge, guys.

-Oh, God, no! -Player 435, eliminated.

Player 448, eliminated.

Don't be scared you got it! Hurry, let's go!

-Jump! Come on! -Move, hurry.

Fucking go.

I'm going.

Help. Please, please! Help me!

Player 306, eliminated.

Player 333, pass.

Jun-hee, just stay there! I'll come to you!

Mr. Seong, no!

You can't come back now.

No. Jun-hee, don't.

Wait! No! I'll get there!

You'll make it through, Jun-hee!

Please don't come. Just stay there!

If you don't survive, my baby will die too.

You said the most important thing

was saving my little girl.

That's what I'm trying to do right now.

Watch over her.

Jun-hee.

Player 222, eliminated.

The game has now concluded.

SQUID GAME 3

Number 018, outer perimeter patrol.

NO. 11 KANG NO-EUL

Number 011, outer perimeter patrol.

DUTY OF THE DAY OUTER PERIMETER

Number 016, outer perimeter patrol.

Get the pursuit team ready.

Follow me.

Well, putting the baby in the game was genius.

Made it twice as fun and dramatic.

Glad you enjoyed it.

I had no idea the game would turn out like that.

Yeah, but what do we do with this baby now?

Well, now that the mother's eliminated, maybe…

we should just eliminate it too.

Eliminate it?

Wait, one way or another,

we all saw that baby cross the finish line. Right?

That's true.

It's not fair to eliminate someone who crossed the finish line.

You know,

that's the first time you've looked attractive

with your mouth open.

Look, the baby is not an independent participant.

It's dependent on 222.

And if 222 is eliminated, the baby must be eliminated.

If that's the case,

we should've made the baby move with its mother in the previous game.

If we accept the baby crossed the finish line separately from its mother

then it should be considered an independent participant.

Okay. If we all can't agree, why don't we just ask the host?

How about having the baby compete as Player 222 in the next game?

Isn't that the mother's number?

It is.

And what's your reasoning?

Soon, the players will vote whether to continue the game.

So what changes if the baby participates?

If the baby competes in place of its mother,

both the voting and the game will be more interesting.

I promise you.

If our host is so sure of himself, let's do that.

Okay. Agreed.

Same here.

Player 222 is back from the dead, thanks to her baby.

This is a bigger twist than the resurrection of Jesus.

Awesome!

222 is invincible! Whoo!

And I knew it! I knew you could do it!

I knew it! I knew it!

Whoo-hoo!

Shit.

Hey.

Are you good with…

You good with numbers, dude?

There's only eight players remaining now.

That makes the prize…

Divide 44.8 billion by 8.

5.6 billion.

5.6?

5.6 billion.

You know what? That's good enough for me to get outta here.

Is it enough for you?

I'd be happy with that.

He might not be.

He owes ten billion won.

I bet for the rest of us 5.6 billion will cover our debts.

Then, um, we could maybe in the next round of voting…

You have all made it through the fifth game in the series.

Congratulations to you all.

Now, if I may please have your attention, I will announce the results.

In the fifth game,

a total of 16 players were eliminated,

bringing the number of remaining players to nine.

The total prize money accumulated is 44.7 billion won,

making each player's share 4.96 billion won.

What do you mean, there's still nine players?

There's only eight.

Um, he's right. We've counted eight players.

Players 039, 100, 125,

203, 222, 333,

336, 353, and 456.

Nine players have survived.

Wait.

Number 222?

That girl?

Clearly she just died!

Everyone, back me up!

We saw Player 222 kill herself just now.

Player 222

is right over there.

What?

Are you telling me that baby is Player 222?

That is correct.

Wait.

How's that make sense?

Suddenly that newborn counts the same as us?

That is correct. The baby is Player 222.

So you're saying, um, that baby gets its dead mother's number

and all her money worth almost five billion?

-That is correct. -Fuck that!

What kind of bullshit is this!

That little slut is dead.

Since she died back there, her share should be ours!

What's that baby done to deserve it, huh?

Yeah, man!

We risked our lives for that money, fair and square.

And that kid shows up here, and now it's a player too?

You want us to share our money with that thing?

-Are you batshit crazy? -You're gonna pull this shit on us now?

So, say I get shot in here, my kids can inherit what I've earned?

According to you, they get my share now?

Our shares dropped by 700 million because of that baby?

No way! You can't do that to us!

That's right! The mother's already dead, so the kid should be out!

-Who agrees? -Yeah, eliminate it!

Damn right!

The kid has to go.

It should die right now!

Kill it! I'm not sharing my prize with it!

That baby should be dead already! Get rid of it!

It's gotta go! Kill that kid right now!

No fucking way! We won't take this!

What's it gonna do with the money?

Hand over the baby!

-Hey, you! -This is bullshit!

456, give me the kid.

Hand the little fucker over.

Give it to me, or I'll kill you too!

Physical violence between players

will no longer be tolerated outside of games.

It is always our priority

to give every single player a fair shot at winning.

We appreciate your cooperation.

In order to congratulate all of you for reaching the final game in the series,

we have prepared a very special reward for you.

Name?

Kim… Mu… dong.

-"Kim Mu… Mu-dong"? -Mmm-hmm.

-What? Seriously? Come on, man. -Registration number?

-Just keep your mouth shut. -Mr. Choi Woo-seok.

Yeah?

Quit exchanging glances with Mr. Kim Mu-Dong.

-Yes, sir. -Come on, just answer my questions.

You really know the house's owner?

How many times do I gotta tell you guys that I do?

Park's not really a fisherman. He's part of this criminal organization.

You've got the evidence right in front of you.

Just look. Inside that is the uniform and mask they wear.

Hey.

I've been investigating drug smugglers and gangs for 20-plus years now.

You better believe no gang would wear pink jumpsuits

and cover their faces with these stupid little masks!

I'm telling you the truth!

Those motherfuckers hide behind these masks,

take all these people to an island

and force them to play kids' games, or they get shot!

You've seen this in person?

No, uh…

Not with my own eyes.

I, uh…

Still, we've been working hard to find that island.

You'll see. When my team finds it, they'll call.

And all that cash?

That damn jar was full of it!

There's no way that's not shady fucking money!

A lot of folks around here, elderly ones especially,

don't trust banks with money.

They keep it in jars, under mattresses, those sorts of things.

That's not suspicious at all, it just isn't!

-Uh, What-- -No, wait, wait, wait! Hold on.

Look at this picture. Huh?

This is Captain Park,

and the guy next to him is part of that organization too.

This guy would recruit folks by gambling on ddakji in the subway.

He might look normal, but he's a fucking psychopath.

This guy…

He made me play Rock, Paper, Scissors, Minus One, okay?

And he… shot a man who was like a brother to me.

All right.

Tell me who this guy really is.

Haven't you been listening? I told you, he'd go play ddakji…

Not that shit!

I need more info.

I need his name, his age, address, what he does.

Facts like that.

I don't know, why the hell are you asking me about that?

You should figure that out.

You cops shouldn't piss away all our tax money!

Okay.

That's exactly why I put your taxes to work

and took a thorough look at your background.

Man, you've got an impressive rap sheet!

Extortion, assault, false imprisonment, kidnapping, threats.

You've got nine convictions.

Now, if you add burglary and the animal cruelty,

you've managed to hit double digits.

Hey. No. I'm not the issue.

Captain Park's the one you need to look into.

He's a sketchy motherfucker.

Did you also check out his background?

Park Yeong-gil was booked for gambling illegally

and paid a fine for it over ten years ago.

From then on, he's been totally clean,

without so much as a single parking ticket.

Oh.

This is the island where I got shot.

And I remember using a tank of air to get there from the games' location.

Through an underground cave.

One tank of air lasts about 40 minutes.

Even with the propulsion device you used back then,

the island has to be within a radius of 20 kilometers.

It's gotta be on this map somewhere.

It's been five days since Mr. Seong went to that island.

That means we have one more day to find this place.

It's too many islands.

There's no way we can search the area before the games end.

Let's begin with places that seem likely.

Captain, tell me what you think.

Well, my gut's saying…

it's not in this area.

The currents are strong, and the Coast Guard patrols constantly

'cause Chinese boats cross the border around there.

I don't really think the games would be there.

We'll start with these islands first thing in the morning.

It's best if our team covers the south,

and the north will be covered by the other team.

Okay.

All right.

We'll go for it.

-Hey, Song. -Yeah?

Do we know Captain Park's whereabouts?

I checked the boat departures, and he's out fishing.

Give him a call already.

-His property's been damaged. -Uh--

It's kinda late, so I was gonna wait till morning to call.

Fishermen are probably up all hours of the night.

-And you know his dog just died. -Uh…

-We should break the news to him. -Uh, wait.

-Yes, sir. -Detective, please.

Uh, could you let me make a call too?

Who you gonna call?

Uh…

My lawyer.

Here.

Oh, no, not this piece of shit. I need my phone.

It's been confiscated as part of a criminal investigation.

Wanna call someone?

Here you go.

Okay, so my lawyer friend's number is stored in my contacts.

I need my own phone!

There's no way.

Uh, hello? Is this Captain Park Yeong-gil?

Yes, it is.

Hi. So I'm calling from the Moojin Police Station.

I wanted to let you know that

someone broke into your house this evening.

Someone broke into the house?

We'll search this area first,

-and then here somewhere. -Yes, sir.

Your neighbor called it in,

and we arrested the intruder at your house.

Ah. I see. I appreciate it.

Just wondering,

what was he after?

Well, he was trying to steal a bag of cash and, uh, some clothes buried in your yard.

Ah.

Uh, could you tell me the name of the guy you caught?

Yes, uh, his name is Choi Woo-seok.

-Sir-- -He's in his 40s.

Do you know him, by any chance?

No.

We've never met.

Okay. I see.

It's just, this guy's been saying some crazy things.

Crazy things?

Well, he claims you're a member of this group

that is kidnapping a bunch of people

and then taking them to an island to play deadly games.

Oh, fuck this guy!

And that the cash is from those criminal activities.

Oh, you know that pink jumpsuit you have?

Will you just give me my goddamn phone right now!

My lawyer's number is in there!

If you don't give me my phone it's a clear violation of my legal rights!

Huh?

This how you small-town cops work? Do whatever the fuck you want?

Make up your own rules?

Fine! Tell your chief to get in here! Okay?

A close friend of mine is a big deal here in Moojin.

Keep this up, and you'll all get fucking sacked!

Enough, all right? Chill out.

-Why? -You can use your goddamn phone, okay?

Hurry up, come on. Hurry.

You there?

Yeah, so sorry about that. Uh, it got a little noisy.

Yeah. Captain Park, um, as soon as you return to land,

could you come by the station to confirm if there's any other damage?

Oh, and, uh…

Boy, I'm real sorry to have to tell you this,

but unfortunately your dog has died.

Looks like Mr. Choi killed it.

Okay. Thanks, Mr. Song.

Who called this late?

Oh, uh, just someone I worked on a boat with back in the day.

He woke from a bad dream and told me to watch out.

What'd he dream about?

He learned his dog was killed.

So sad.

Give me your passcode.

I'm not giving a cop my passcode.

Let me unlock it with Face ID. Hold it up for me.

Here. Look right here.

-Shit! Guys! -Hey!

-Shit! -Someone go after him!

-Stop! -Hey!

Siri, call Detective Hwang!

-Wait! Stop him! -Get him!

Just head back inside.

I'll radio Ko and his crew and see where they're at.

Sounds good to me.

MR. CHOI

Hi. What's up?

This is Boat One. You there, Boat Two?

This is Boat Two. Go ahead.

We've been exposed.

Kill everybody before they catch on.

Copy.

Hwang, hey! Captain Park works for those bastards!

-Wait, what? -He's one of those masked men!

I found his mask, uniform, and everything at his house!

I even found a picture of him with that ddakji guy! Oh, shit!

Get out of there! He knows I know!

They told him I broke into his house!

Hwang, get out! Watch your back!

Don't trust him!

Oh, Captain.

Want some noodles?

Hey, he wants some too. Grab another one.

Where's Detective Hwang?

Turn around.

Tell me who you are?

What are you after?

Why pull me out of the water?

I… was just carrying out my orders.

Who gave you those orders back then, huh?

He said do whatever it takes to keep you alive.

You know.

You know where the island's located.

Doesn't matter now, anyway.

Say you make it there. What'll you do?

Come on.

There's no one left who can help now.

Tell me where it is.

You know what? I was supposed to be dead already.

But then he came

and gave me a second chance.

Tell me where!

Captain Hwang…

it's been fun.

Everyone, will you please take your seats.

For tonight's feast,

we have prepared more than enough food and drink for everyone.

If you would like more, please, do not hesitate to ask.

Mmm.

I'm a little worried.

About what?

Well, the baby may have lowered each player's share of the cash,

but won't the majority still want to stop the game for that much prize money?

No need to worry. The final game will definitely take place.

How can you be so sure?

They have no reason to vote no

if they know for sure they'll survive.

Sounds like you have a plan.

Our host always has a plan.

We will now begin the vote in order to determine

whether you would like to continue to the next game.

But before we proceed,

you will be given a hint about the structure of the final game.

In the final game,

all of you will get to choose which players will be eliminated.

What?

You're saying we'll choose who'll be eliminated?

That is correct.

If you can all agree on which three players should be eliminated,

the rest of you will make it through and survive the final game.

So, uh, we just gotta pick who goes?

We eliminate three of us, and the rest can win?

That is correct.

In the final game,

you only need to eliminate a minimum of three players.

"A minimum of three players." That's what you said.

You mean, we can kill off more than three. Is that true?

That is correct.

However, the choice

will be entirely yours.

It's up to us as a group how many of us will die?

-That is correct. -Ah, shit.

Just speak like a goddamn human.

What are we really doing?

So as I understand it,

at the very least,

we choose three people to kill from the get-go,

but we could get rid of others.

And whoever gets killed is up to us. That's what you're saying?

That is correct. It's completely up to you

to decide who will be eliminated during the final game.

If you eliminate the minimum three players,

the remaining six will become the final winners

and be allowed to leave this place.

With that, we will now begin the vote.

It will take place in reverse order of player number.

Player 456, please cast your vote.

Player 353, please cast your vote.

Player 336.

Player 333.

Player 222.

Since Player 222 lacks the capacity to make decisions…

…her vote will be forfeit.

Are there any objections?

I…

do not object.

Can I get some more rice?

Okay then, no objections?

-Nope. -No. All good here.

Let's hurry up and vote.

Enjoy that amazing meal.

Player 125.

Hey.

Hey!

It's your turn.

Player 100.

And finally, Player 039.

Can we just call it now?

Five out of nine voted to stay, so that's a majority.

Player 039, do you need to vote?

Uh-uh. I'm all good.

Uh, see, I was gonna vote "O" no matter what, so…

With five out of the nine voters in favor,

a majority has indeed been reached.

Therefore we will proceed with the final game.

Thank you very much.

Here we are at the end.

I propose we make a toast to giving every game our all.

Come on, everyone. Raise your glasses.

Goenbae!

Goenbae!

-Now, let us feast! -Enjoy, everybody.

Hey, you! Bring me more galbi and japchae while you're at it.

-This is good. -I wanna drink. Come on!

-More of the good shit! -And our host was right again.

Hmm, I wonder how they're deciding to eliminate.

I suppose it all depends on what the next game is.

Sorry, but it's in your best interest

to keep it a secret until tomorrow.

I can't wait for tomorrow.

We'll just have to stay up all night and drink then.

And then the sun will come up, and the games will start.

Where are you off to?

-I'm gonna call it a night. -Already?

Come on. Have a drink with me.

Ooh, that sounds kinda sexy.

What's that mean?

I'd rather drink with my footstool than with you.

Team Two was taken out.

It's stopped bleeding.

Luckily it perforated your leg so you'll be okay for a bit.

-Once we find the games then we-- -We can't keep going.

There's still time left.

What about survivors?

I know that some will still be alive.

Is that the reason you're obsessed with that place?

I have to find my older brother.

He's on that island.

I may never get another opportunity.

Please help me.

No way we'll find it now.

The other boat's gone, and there's too much to search.

It's not in this area.

The currents are strong, and the Coast Guard patrols constantly

'cause Chinese boats cross the border around there.

I don't really think the games would be there.

The island must be here somewhere.

This is Boat Two. Everyone's taken care of.

And Boat One?

It seems like… they got Captain Park.

011, answer me.

I have nothing to say to you.

That tiny boat won't get you very far, you know that, right?

It's not too late.

Just bring him back here.

If you hand him over, I'll turn a blind eye to everything else.

Stop looking for Number 016 and I.

It's better for you if you leave us alone.

He's Player 246. Real name, Park Gyeong-seok.

I don't know what your connection is to him.

I have a pretty good idea of where he's headed.

Seohyeon Hospital, pediatric cancer ward, room 4104.

How'd I do?

Thinking of coming back now?

Since it's three people, the choice is easy.

A no-brainer, honestly.

We choose good old 456,

and, of course, 222, the kid,

and third, that guy.

125, the junkie.

They're the only players who need to be killed.

We eliminate those three players,

then the remaining six of us can play nice, hmm?

We'll divide that up and get the hell out.

Okay then.

What would we each get?

-Huh? -7.6 billion.

All right, guys.

Let's all swear to this right now.

The six of us will stick together.

We'll take out the three people we agreed on,

get 7.6 billion each, and be on our way.

But we don't know exactly what the game will be yet, so…

And besides, they told us more than three could go.

That's true, but don't we get to choose who'll be eliminated?

So I think the game will give a team the upper hand.

Eh! Okay, okay. We've already planned enough.

If you want to work as a team on this,

hands in, come on.

You're in or you're out, man. Otherwise fuck off.

It's a good thing the kid counts.

Just think. We lucked out.

It's all easy-breezy.

Why are you going back?

Take the boat north at full speed.

As soon as you reach land, call the police.

Your daughter's in danger.

How do you know my daughter?

Just go.

Get as far away as you can before the sky clears up.

Sir, it looks like the boat is moving away again.

Shoot them both.

Player 456.

He wants to see you.

Have a seat. This could take a while.

I have a proposition for you.

It's about your future, and the baby's too.

About our futures?

Did we ever really stand a chance?

As you've probably guessed,

the other players have formed a team

and will target you and the baby in the next game.

Isn't that what you planned to amuse your masters until the end?

Isn't that the whole reason you added a newborn to the game after all?

Because you want to watch those greedy, stupid men

tear that poor baby apart.

That's not true.

I'm trying to help you and the baby.

You want me to believe you'll help us?

Take this knife back to your quarters

and kill them.

Kill anyone who wants to kill you or harm the baby.

After all the eating and drinking, they're surely fast asleep.

If you slit their throats one by one, no one will notice.

Why are you saying all this to me now?

Hello, Gi-hun.

I'm sorry about Jung-bae.

You want to kill me?

Then go ahead.

It's just you and me.

There's no one to stop you.

But I'm sure you know already my death won't change a thing.

They'll just announce a new leader

and the game will continue as planned.

And during that game,

you'll fight those assholes and try to save yourself and the kid.

But if you kill them while they're sleeping,

the baby and you will win the prize.

The next game won't be played if only two players remain.

That means, according to the rules,

the games

will have to be over.

You and the baby

can get out of this place alive.

You have my word.

They'll be sure to go after you and the kid tomorrow.

So just kill them tonight.

You'll be safe.

That's the wisest course of action.

Player 456.

Do you still have faith in people?
