THIS IS A WORK OF FICTION.

CHILD ACTORS AND ANIMALS WERE FILMED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH SAFETY GUIDELINES.

PREGNANT

It feels like the blood of Jeong I-shin,
that monster who gave birth to me,

is running through my veins.

Jung-yeon, are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I'm just feeling a little nauseous.

I'LL BE AT AH-RA'S PLACE FOR A FEW DAYS
I'M SORRY I CAN'T BE THERE FOR YOU

Excuse us.

I'll be in the car.

Okay.

Pardon the intrusion,
but where are you off to?

A funeral.

She does own
a valid driver's license, right?

Yes.

Where's my compensation?

Sir.

You must be very upset,

but why don't you come here and...

Let go of me.

You killed a perfectly healthy boy.

Where's my compensation?

Who will compensate me?

- Sir.
- I should be compensated.

- Sir.
- Let go.

I should be compensated.

But...

How do you know the deceased?

Well, we are...

I'm his older brother.

Goodness. What a terrible tragedy
for such a young man.

Min-jae said this was his happiest moment.

This was the spot.

It's really nice.

He did a good job.

Min-jae painted it, right?

He painted you and her together?

It's weird, isn't it?

I'm her biological son,
and I don't even want to look at her,

but despite not sharing
a drop of blood with her,

he missed her so dearly.

Who cares about blood?

What they meant
for each other is what matters.

I just...

I don't know.

Ever since I was little,

I was on the run.

From the past...

and my mom.

I was always terrified of being found out.

I wondered if that would be
my life forever.

I guess I eventually grew tired of it.

At first, I joined...

this investigation team

because my mom requested it.

But I think a part of me

wanted to see if I could do it.

This time, I really wanted

to stand my ground and fight back.

But in the end,

it looks like I ran away again.

Ran away from what?

Carrying out an investigation
is a bit like...

looking after a child.

The more you obsess over it,

the more things go awry.

What does that mean?

I quit the investigation.

Nothing has changed.

You are still the one

I chose after long, careful observation.

You didn't run away.

Just look at this view.

You ended up somewhere even better.

I'm sorry...

I'm just sorry.

It's okay.

Come here.

Hey, buddy!

- Run!
- Let's go.

Ah-ra actually hates dogs.

She's just putting on an act for our sake.

Got you.

Hey, guys.

Isn't it so cute?

Look at it chasing after me.

Ah-ra.

Wake up. We've arrived.

Jung-yeon.

Can't you be nice and wipe her mouth?

I didn't drool.

You guys are terrible.

I'm going home now.

- Be careful getting out.
- Okay.

- I'll see you up there.
- Okay.

I'm going to go and grab my stuff.
It won't take long.

Take your time.

- Hello?
- Why are you so hard to reach?

You were right.

We have an address
for the doctor you were looking for.

It appears Kang and he were
aware of each other.

The perp will be caught soon.

No.

The doctor's computer and files
were all stolen from his home.

It appears the perp
was in a real rush this time.

No mirrors or the usual traces.

The scene was a complete mess.
Return to the office now.

Jeong I-shin won't cooperate
without you here.

Jeong I-shin and I will be of no help now.

The perp should be calling soon.

We must uncover a lead then.

Son Hyeon-ho died because of me.

So did Min-jae.

It's only natural that the team
doesn't want me to be there.

I'm sorry, sir.

Su-yeol.

The issue with the team members

will be taken care of by Jeong I-shin.

What?

Return to the office immediately

if you want the perp to be caught.

You need to go, right?

Well...

Go. I'll be fine.

Jung-yeon.

Su-yeol.

You said the investigation
was like a child.

You can't just pick and choose
when you want to take care of a child.

Go.

Go and make sure
to catch that copycat killer.

And then, come and pick me up.

The perp is excited right now.

She's trying to clean up her tracks.

Captain Cha Su-yeol
has been relieved from this case.

You can just return to prison
if you're not going to cooperate.

I will.

See to it.

Why does it need to be your son?

After over 20 years
of no contact, why now?

Can you give us the room for a moment?

We'll be fine.

Your custody battle.

The child was young,
and with his disability on top of it,

it was a guaranteed win for the mother.

How do you know about that?

That district office punk.

He just babbled on and on, unprompted.

Why did you lose that custody battle?

Ho-jun, it's okay.

You don't have to answer
any more questions.

It's okay. Don't worry, Ho-jun.

Come on now, Ho-jun.

Ho-jun. It's okay.

You don't need to answer that.
You're okay.

Daddy is sorry.

He chose his dad.

The wishes of a child that young

wouldn't influence the judgment.

You know that.

Daddy.

Daddy.

- Daddy.
- "Daddy"?

- Daddy.
- It's okay.

- Daddy.
- I got you.

Until then, he only knew
how to cry and scream,

and laugh when he was happy.
He had yet to speak a single word.

But he said, "Daddy" out loud.

That was his first word ever.

You pushed for the question to be asked
when you knew it would work against you.

You wanted the kid to choose his dad.

He was too much for you to handle.

But when that became the reality,

you found yourself unbearably loathsome.

You became the mother
who abandoned her own child.

Ms. Jeong I-shin.

My son, Inspector Cha Su-yeol,

became a police officer to prove
that he was nothing like me,

and that's why he took on this case.

If he can't solve this case,

he won't be able to forgive himself.

That's why he put up
with his loathsome mother

and refused to ring the emergency alarm.

He wanted to catch the perp.

But all you have is work.

After abandoning your child,

if you can't even work,
you'll truly be nothing.

I'm sure you can't forgive yourself.

Am I wrong?

What are you trying to say exactly?

Bring me Su-yeol right now.

He is just as desperate as you.

Go and see what
unified desperation gets you.

Inspector Cha Su-yeol...

is a decent police officer.

He is indeed qualified
to be the squad leader of our team.

We are not refusing him
because he's your son.

It's because he hid that fact from us.

Because he didn't trust us. That's why.

You're right.

Yeah, I was a coward.

I gave him up.

I didn't think I could do it.

If I couldn't be a good mother for Ho-jun...

I decided I should at least excel
in a space where I'm useful.

But you know what?

At the very least,

I didn't embrace my child
with hands that butchered human lives.

If you possessed any maternal love,
I mean...

any sense of responsibility,

shouldn't you have stopped
for your child's sake?

You severed a man's tongue
and ripped off the neck of another.

What went through your mind

when you went back home
and saw your child?

"Since I am your mother,

I won't kill you." Was that it?

Such an eloquent speaker you are.

You seem quite upset.

I'm just curious.

Are you actually assisting in this case

for the sake of Cha Su-yeol, your son?

What?

I just can't believe it.

What if this isn't a narrative
about a mother aiding her son?

What if it's one where the mother
is using her son with sinister intentions?

That's what heinous criminals do.

If that's the case...

I will kill you.

Inspector Kim Na-hee.

Hang in there.

NAMBU METROPOLITAN POLICE AGENCY

You should've gone easy with the cilantro.

That was just way too much.

The soup was good,
but just too much cilantro...

Hyuk.

Lying to us was wrong.

Why do you look so blue?

I thought you worked it out
with Su-yeol at the funeral yesterday.

I'm not sure.

I can't figure you two out either.

I do appreciate the reminder
that being single is

the golden ticket.

How about some day-drinking?

Ah-ra.

I can't drink anymore.

Why not?

What's wrong?

You can talk to me.

PREGNANT

Seriously?

Wait, is this thing real?

Congratulations, Jung-yeon!

This is happy news. What's wrong?

Don't tell me.

Does Su-yeol not want it?

Cha Su-yeol, that jerk.
Should I give him a stern talking-to?

Knock some sense into him?

- Should I?
- No. He doesn't know yet.

Why not? Why didn't you tell him?

Jung-yeon.

I don't know.

I was the one who asked him out
and proposed to him.

I'm having this baby,
whether he wants it or not.

I need to show him how great

having a family can be.

I'm jealous.

What?

It's nothing.

How about going for a drive?

Its name is Astro Jian.

It's a character Sergeant Son made.

I'm not here for a warm welcome.

But still, at least,
until the investigation is over--

We need to work together.

We need to catch the culprit.

We can't have any more victims.

Thank you.

Do you remember what you told us
when you first got here?

It doesn't matter
if it's Narcotics or Major Crimes.

A true officer proves themselves
in investigations.

Now, prove yourself.

We will respond accordingly.

BLOCKED NUMBER

Why are you in cahoots with the pigs?
Is it for your son's sake?

Do you know what I'm looking at?

A corpse in a bathtub.

What a dumpster fire.

You didn't kill someone
who deserved to be killed.

You just did it to save your own ass
because he knew your true identity.

Do you understand now?

You and I are nothing alike.

You kill people
just because you want to kill.

Reasoning is nowhere to be found.

I know you killed the cat you showed me
when you were a kid.

After being abused by your daddy,

you vented your rage on small,
powerless creatures.

Yeon-joong, that is who you are.

If you ever have a kid,

I'm sure you'll follow right
in your daddy's footsteps

and make your kid suffer.

You'd better shut up
before I wrench that tongue out.

Damn, look at those murderous sparks
flying between them.

Listen, Jeong I-shin,

you should've just killed me
after killing my dad.

You act all high and mighty
as if you're some noble hero,

but you're nothing more
than the pathetic beast who failed.

You ought to be grateful to me.

Hey, I was the one who stopped
Park Min-jae from digging into

you and your son.

Your son gets to live his happy life now
all because of me.

And this is the thanks I get?

What's this now?

Fine. I'll make sure you regret
not killing me after my dad.

You're in prison,

and I'm out here.

You just wait and see.

See how I tear down
every little thing you hold dear.

She said you were happy because of her.

How did you meet Jung-yeon?

I thought all detectives were scary.

Yeah, I'm really scary.

What I mean is,

when I'm working,
I tend to be quite ruthless.

I hope to see the day
when you become afraid of me.

Why?

It's just a bit scary to realize
you have feelings for somebody.

Why are there so many people
in the bathroom?

What's this? The matchmaker returns from
the bathroom to find a whole new vibe?

This is only the first meeting,
and you already have secrets?

POWER OFF

Hey, don't you worry about a thing.

Safe driving is the best driving.

The phone is switched off...

The phone is switched off. Your call
will now be forwarded to voicemail...

Sir.

No one's here.

Her car's gone too.

- It seems they went somewhere.
- Isn't she an acquaintance?

Any idea where she could be?

Damn it.

Hey, you call that driving?

The vehicle just passed
Yeoseung Toll Gate.

Yeoseung? Where could they be headed?

- What about Ms. Lee's phone?
- It's still off.

The phone is switched off. Your call
will now be forwarded to voicemail...

Patrol cars and the highway control center
have been notified.

Most patrol cars are
smart vehicles nowadays.

I'm sure they'll find them.

Don't worry too much.

IF YOU'RE WITH AH-RA,
YOU NEED TO GET AWAY FROM HER NOW

MYEONGCHEON SELF-SERVICE GAS STATION

Parked.

So? Can you trust my driving skills now?

Maybe we can call for a driver?

No, I got this. No worries.

- I need to pump the gas.
- Okay.

Why is it off?

Please select your fuel type.

HUBBY SU-YEOL

IF YOU'RE WITH AH-RA,
YOU NEED TO GET AWAY FROM HER NOW

Ms. Lee's phone was turned on.
She's near Ichang-myeon.

Send all available units in the area.

AH-RA IS MIN-JAE'S KILLER...
YOU NEED TO TELL ME WHERE YOU ARE

Pass Ichang-myeon and take Route 92.

Yes, sir.

What's wrong?

I just need to use the bathroom.

- All patrol cars in the area--
- Hold on.

- Su-yeol, it's me.
- Listen, Jung-yeon.

I'll explain the details later.

If you're with Ah-ra, you need
to get away as soon as possible,

and find other people.

And don't panic. I'm on my way.

Can you tell me where you are?

Myeongcheon Self-Service Gas Station.

Jung-yeon, don't hang up,
and just keep your phone on you.

- Okay.
- Don't get scared. Remain calm.

Go somewhere with lots of people.

Don't ever turn off your phone.

Okay, Jung-yeon?

Our Jung-yeon can be so cute sometimes.

GISEUNG LOGISTICS

Hello?

Is anyone here?

Su-yeol, I managed to get away.

Good job, Jung-yeon. Are you okay?

What is going on right now?

Is Ah-ra really the culprit?

It seems so.

Don't worry. The police are
on their way there. I am too.

Can you tell me exactly where you are?

I am...

- at Giseung Logistics.
- Giseung Logistics.

But there's no one else around.

The police are on their way there.

I'm on my way there, too. Don't worry.

Take a deep breath.

One,

two,

three.

One, two,

three.

Su-yeol, I think someone's here.

Ms. Lee Jung-yeon?

Ms. Lee Jung-yeon?

Are you here, Ms. Lee?

It's the police.

I'm over here!

We've located Ms. Lee.

- Do you want to...
- Yes.

Hello, sir. I'm here.

Thank you so much.

Let's first get her somewhere safe.

We'll be there shortly.

Yes, sir.

You can get in the back.

We'll get you somewhere safe.

Heading to the precinct now.

Hello?

Jung-yeon, what's wrong?

Jung-yeon!

- Go! Step on it!
- Yes, sir.

Do you copy?

What's going on there?

Do you copy?

Jung-yeon.

Ah-ra.

Please don't do this.

I'm pregnant.

Hello.

It's nice to meet you.

I'm Kang Yeon-joong.

His gun is missing.

Sir.

Hello?

Hello?

Is that you, Su-yeol?

Ah-ra, you...

Inspector Cha Su-yeol.

No, I mean Jeong-ho.

It's been a while.

Kang Yeon-joong.

Jung-yeon is taking a nice little nap.

The only thing she has to look forward to
when she wakes up is hell.

I hope she at least has a nice dream.

Lay a hand on her,
and you'll answer to me.

Su-yeol.

She was just a toy
I threw your way from the start.

Who are you to threaten me?

Oh, that's right.

I left a little gift for you there.

Check the center console.

NAMBU METROPOLITAN POLICE AGENCY

I've located the suspect's vehicle.
It's headed toward...

YEONPO INTERSECTION, ROUTE 21

Su-yeol, it looks like the perp
is heading to Woongsan.

- She's not hiding it either.
- Wait...

Kang Yeon-joong's old house in Tangwang
and my old house.

Dispatch units to every place
of interest tied to the perp.

And Yeonpo Bridge
also needs to be sealed off.

Sir.

After the Hyupseong mines shut down,
everyone moved out of the company housing.

There's no one
at your old house in Yeonpo either.

And Yeonpo Bridge?

It was sealed off a while ago.
They never crossed it.

It seems they're somewhere in this town.

The mining company has been contacted.

The advance SOU units are gathered
at the community center.

We should head there.

You're awake.

What do you think?

Isn't it cozy?

It's my favorite spot.

I wonder if you'll like it too.

Ah-ra.

It's me, Jung-yeon.

Of course, I know you, Jung-yeon.

You're Cha Su-yeol's wife
and Jeong I-shin's daughter-in-law.

I was the one who introduced you to him.

If I'm being honest,

I tried a few other girls
with him before you.

But for some odd reason,
he only ever showed interest in you.

I knew the door code to your place.

I got daily updates
on Cha Su-yeol from you.

I even saw him every day.

I didn't even need CCTV or surveillance.

All thanks to you.

Why are you doing this?

She looked after me.

It's only right that I help out her son,
don't you think?

"Her"?

Hey.

Unbelievable.
You really need to get your shit together.

You might see your mother-in-law.

You can't be out of it already.

LEADING COAL INDUSTRY INNOVATION!
EAST MINE SHAFT

Sir.

Thanks.

Hold on.

Yes, sir?

Answer it.

Hi! Keep your mouth shut and listen to me.

You must be wondering where I am.

You could call it my hideout.

There are a lot of bugs here
and it's quite damp,

but I love it.

- Basement storage room.
- Every time my dad got wasted

and flipped out, I'd hide here.

Ta-da!

I used to play doctor on this table.

I used to pretend
the box cutter was a scalpel,

and I used it to slice open
stray cats and dogs, one after another.

You were right.

The cat I showed you back then

was also killed by me.

I just sort of felt this thrill
when I went against my dad's wishes.

You know what I'm talking about, right?

At some point, he was no longer a factor.
I just wanted to keep doing it.

I started small
and eventually made my way up.

From beasts to people.

Fuck, seriously...

I should've been
the one to kill my father.

I really fucking regret that.

I've always wanted

to slice open a pregnant creature.

I wondered

- Sir.
- if you put the mother under anesthesia,

does the baby go under too?

Aren't you dying to know too?

So I went all over town looking for one,

but I couldn't find
a single pregnant bitch around.

Maybe my town was too rural?

I've sliced through everything else,

but not that yet.

I feel like I'll be able
to check that off my list today.

Are you still a child?

You took out your rage at your daddy

on helpless animals.

Because you were weak back then.

But that's no longer the case.

If you're mad at me, take it out on me.

You want me, right?

And not the toy you found.

Hey, Jung-yeon.

Your mother-in-law
just called you a "toy."

I'm sure I told you
to keep your mouth shut.

Our Jung-yeon...

gets to live, thanks to her mother-in-law.

I'll give her back,

but in exchange,

you come here in person.

The exchange will happen in five hours,
at the community center.

And after that...

I'll tell you when you get here.

If I even detect a whiff of the police,

I'll just kill Jung-yeon.

See you later.

Mom.

Five hours later?

It'll be 11:00 a.m.

Jeong I-shin is coming here?

Open your mouth.

Stop acting like you give a damn about me.
Untie me now.

It looks like

our Jung-yeon is not ready
to become a mom yet.

Forget you. Will your baby be okay?

Have you lost your mind?

Hey! I went out of my way to help you.

Why the hell would you spit on my face?

Look at what you did. I'm filthy now!

INSPECTOR CHA SU-YEOL

SPEAKER

You will end up dead if you go there.
You know that.

Just accept it.

You hand over one to get back two.

It's a pretty good deal.

Last time, you told me

I should aid with the investigation

if I want to pay for my sins.

It's quite amusing.

I am a death row inmate.

Even when I killed the scum of the earth
who deserved to die,

I was tried in a court of law.

However, when it comes to you...

What about me?

I have to do this.

INSPECTOR CHA SU-YEOL

I understand...

but I can't make that decision.

After the mines shut down,

there was talk of a casino coming in,

but I guess it went nowhere.

Even the former miners say

that there isn't anyone who knows

all the ins and outs of the mines.

Damn it. So what now?

After mobilizing all this man power,
are we just supposed to sit on our hands?

They said not to provoke the perp.
Just do as you're told.

What about Captain Cha?

His mother, wife,

and now, even his baby.

I would've lost my mind already.

You are just impossibly naive.

What does that mean?

I mean...

This might sound a bit...

Damn it. Screw it.

Anyhow, if we solely rely on Kang's words,

and things go awry,
we might end up letting Kang and Jeong,

both of the bloodthirsty killers,
walk free.

What if they're in it together?

To be honest,
I don't trust the captain either.

After all we've been through,
that's what you think about Captain Cha?

From what I've seen,

he has worked harder than anyone
to catch this perp.

He suffered the most
every time there was a new victim.

She's right.

It was almost to the point
of being excessive.

I finally understand now.

Jeong I-shin said that Captain Cha

became a police officer
and took on this case

to prove that he was
nothing like his mother.

To prove that he wasn't like her?

In other words, to prove he's someone
who saves lives, not takes them.

Someone who rescues lives
and prevents crime.

I'm sure seeing the climbing number
of victims drove him insane.

He probably believed
he failed to stop the murders.

And to make matters worse,
the killer was imitating his mother.

He was practically forced
to relive his mother's traumatizing past.

It must have been

so painful for him.

And you suggest

he would use his pregnant wife
to help out Kang and Jeong?

No, what I meant was...

Captain Cha is not involved.

If anything, he's getting used
by the two of them.

But what if Jeong I-shin
was exploiting such intentions?

As if serial murder wasn't enough,
what if she was using her son

to make her escape?

His life will be...

That's why we need
to keep it together for his sake.

Let's see what happens.

A hostage exchange?

The higher-ups would never agree to that.

You said it yourself.

The commissioner would never take on
such a risk that might result

in two serial killers walking free.

Chief Choi.

Jung-ho.

Have you lost your mind?

How could we ever trust
Jeong I-shin enough to release her?

We'll have her wear a tracker

and catch her when she's with the perp.

This is actually our chance
to catch the perp as well.

Jeong I-shin has agreed to cooperate.

What if they're in it together?

What if they're accomplices?

What if this isn't
a chance to catch criminals,

but for the Mantis to make her escape?

Just in case,

we'll secure the perimeter
of the exchange site.

We will take every precaution
to prevent escape.

We don't have time.

If the police knew of
a pregnant hostage and she's murdered,

how will you handle the backlash?

We have a little more
than four hours left.

We need to take
Jeong I-shin to the site now.

We never should've brought
that woman into this to begin with!

Jung-ho, you're done.

I'll take over the reins from here.

I refuse.

What did you say?

I will see this through.

We received a report of a child screaming.

May I take a look inside?

Are you going to take him and raise him?

Sir, there's no need for all that.

You know about Kang Yeon-joong.

That day,

if I had forced myself in there...

I would've discovered Kang,

and if I had taken
the necessary measures back then,

his father wouldn't have been
murdered either.

Then, Kang would've never witnessed
Jeong I-shin murder his father.

And 23 years later,

we could've avoided

Kang following in Jeong's footsteps
and killing all those people.

What has gotten into you?

You know what that town was like.

Half of them didn't want
the mines shut down,

while the other half demanded it
and called for the casino to be built.

Every day, they got drunk
and beat each other up.

It was a complete mess.

Out in the open, on the street,

and even in front of our precinct,
they pummeled each other.

They beat each other to a bloody pulp.

Him beating his child
inside his home wasn't--

Excuses!

Those are all just excuses.

At the end of the day,
we failed to fulfill our duties.

What we couldn't do back then...

Now,

I would like to see it through myself.

You know what the higher-ups
are worried about, right?

Do they suspect them of being accomplices?

That Kang Yeon-joong did all this

to get Jeong I-shin out?

Jeong I-shin remains a dark chapter
in the history of the police.

They wouldn't mind
if she just disappeared.

Yes, I understand.

We'll understand that as your approval
and move accordingly.

It's getting weirder out there.

Who was that?

It's a special order
from the commissioner.

We'll operate independently going forward.

Hyuk.

You tried to save me once.

Thank you.

But can you tell me

how it feels when you go out of your way

to save a person?

All right. Let's head out.

Even when I killed the scum of the earth
who deserved to die,

I was tried in a court of law.

I have to do this.

Momma Bird is passing Woongsan Elementary.

WOONGSAN SERIAL HOMICIDE
INVESTIGATION HEADQUARTERS

You can step out now.

We'll remain on standby here.

When the hostage exchange commences,

we'll take our spots here, here, and here,

to pursue Kang and Jeong.

But what was the special order
from the commissioner?

"Kang does not need to be arrested alive.
Close this case today, no matter what."

"Excluding Lee Jung-yeon and Cha Su-yeol,

don't take extreme measures
for a hostage's safety."

"For the sake of Lee and Cha's safety,
and for the sake of stopping Kang,

Jeong I-shin may be shot down."

That was his order.

We'll communicate on channel eight.

Once Jung-yeon is returned...

we'll pursue you immediately afterward.

Let me see your arm.

No need.

Kang has a gun.

So, you must wear this.

A lot of people want me dead.

Kang isn't the only one.

I don't.

So let me see your arm.

I'll be nearby.

Don't worry.

Walk straight up the mountain
behind Mine Number Two.

Make sure the Mantis is cuffed,
and you make sure you're unarmed.

If anyone tries to pull a fast one
or if there's any funny business,

Jung-yeon and your baby
will be killed immediately.

Are you ready?

Baby Bird has brought Momma Bird
out of the community center.

Moving out.

The Mantis is really here.

Bae, you head out first.

Move in a wide arc
around the foot of the mountain,

and scout out buildings or caves
that could be used as a hideout.

- You got it.
- Stay alert.

Don't forget the perp has a gun.

Yes, ma'am.

As soon as the exchange happens,
our units will move in.

Take your shot
as soon as Jung-yeon is safe.

I was so disappointed.

This is your one chance
if you want to kill me.

Tell me where Jeong I-shin went.

An off-the-record APB
has been issued for you two.

Why were you so lenient with her?

And with me?

That thing burned my mother to death.

Doesn't it get so lonely?
Living as a monster...
