"What are you prioritizing over the lives of your loved ones?

"You are on a fool's errand... Carry out your missions immediately."

They must know what we're up to.

I bet they're watching us.

I'm in the kiDnap GAME. Can we talk?

I have two children.

I do my best to balance

housework and my career, for all my fellow moms out there.

YOU LOOK TIRED.

Hi Papa!

Hi Papa!

ATRA FLOWER SHOP

Papa?

Papa...?

Papa?!

That's great.

Look down a little.

That's it. Perfect.

I'll be done in two hours.

I told them it's an overnight shoot.

I'm working.

Papa's been... Papa's been kidnapped!

What?

Leona?!

Papa...

Leona...

What's the kiDnap GAME?

Why do you ask?

Someone at school

said Papa was kidnapped in the kiDnap GAME.

Ignore them.

-But... -Don't worry about it!

TOSHI_RO I'M IN THE KIDNAP GAME. CAN WE TALK?

LET'S MEET.

KIDNAP GAME

5 CONTESTANTS LEFT.

5 DAYS AND 9 HOURS UNTIL THE GAME ENDS.

She sent a message.

She says "Let's meet."

What changed?

Maybe she replied because,

like you, she's tasked with the impossible.

Each mission is different, but they're all very difficult.

Your mission is to capture the mastermind.

Not easy, even for a detective.

-In Manila, money. -Impossible even by illegal means.

In Bangkok, a politician's confession.

Equally futile.

In Singapore... I think her mission's a chain of riddles.

CHECKPOINT ONE CLEARED.

It'll take a long time to solve them.

AM 09:09 SGT SINGAPORE

Thank you!

Your own mission would be a piece of cake for a man who didn't value life.

COMMIT MURDER

But for you, it's unimaginably tough.

You said you'd rescue all the hostages.

But what if you could only rescue one?

I would rescue Rian. My daughter.

AM 11:02 JST NAHA

HACKING COMPLETE

You need better security.

Have you seen him?

-Nah, never. You? -Nope.

TOKYO

-Sorry, no. -I see.

What should I do...?

I have two children.

I do my best to balance

housework and my career, for all my fellow moms out there.

-This one's the same... -What?

She often mentions her children but never her husband.

Could it be that they're on bad terms?

You know the "kiDnap GAME"?

It's a malicious rumor.

Other hostages were murdered when the missions failed, supposedly.

We can't make progress if the kidnapper's demands are kept secret.

What do you mean?

My husband is gone. Why keep secrets?

Where to?

To pick up my son.

PM 12:34 TST

Yes...?

Can you pick up Rui?

Again...? Why can't you go?

I've got a lot on my plate.

Fine.

YOU'RE BEING FOLLOWED. RUN!

-Oh, my gosh! I'm so sorry. -I'm OK.

I wasn't looking. I was blind.

Are you OK? Are you sure?

Hey!

Welcome.

I'm Toshiro Niide, Tokyo.

I'm Christina Lin.

Thanks for your help. How did you know I was being followed?

Experience. I'm detective.

That makes sense.

I’m Han Kiju from Seoul, Korea.

I'm Christina Lin.

-We don’t have much time, so let’s cut to the chase. -Sure.

I was given a mission to capture the mastermind. Were you given a mission?

Yes.

Could you hold off completing it and work with us?

They’ll kill my husband. I can’t abandon him.

I’ll capture the mastermind. I just need your help.

Are you trying to complete your own mission first?

No! I’m trying to rescue the hostages. All of them.

I’m asking for your help.

At this rate, another hostage will die. More people will suffer.

He's right. He saved my life.

I think cooperation’s our best bet right now.

My mission... is to commit murder.

I believe you’re here because you also received an impossible demand.

In which case, could you help us?

Please.

My mission was the same. Kill someone.

I could never do that.

I’ll cooperate,

if it means saving my husband... saving everyone else!

We will.

Do you have any ideas on who the mastermind might be?

No.

No idea why you were chosen?

I have no idea.

I have to go, before they’ll get suspicious.

If I think of anything, I'll let you know.

Wait.

Have we met before somewhere?

No.

Maybe it's because I'm a model.

Maybe.

I really have to go.

That was an act.

-She lied about her mission. -Yeah.

She has her guard up.

She might see us as rivals... or even as enemies.

What's she planning?

She may try to throw us off and complete her mission.

Listen closely.

There are two men following us.

-Police? -I doubt it.

The mastermind's men?

If so, I'll make them talk.

Keep an eye on her.

What do you want?

What do you want with her?

Who are you?! Who sent you?!

Hey!

Damn.

Kiju.

-How'd it go? -They got away.

You okay?

Thanks.

Who were they?

-Mama! -Rui!

-I missed you. -I missed you too!

Thank you.

Where were you?

I was...

What were you doing?

-Stop keeping secrets! -Come back, Leona!

Watch them.

-Are you okay? -Yes, thank you.

Make sure you're dressed so you're not cold.

I'm okay.

The scene of the crime.

Papa?

I'm sorry...

You all right?

Wait... wait! Are you the Tokyo man?

You’re the policeman whose wife was kidnapped!

-How do you... -Wait.

Look!

Why are you here? To meet Mom?

Answer me! I only want to save my Papa!

Mom’s in the game too, right? Are they telling her to do something?

Will that save Papa? What are they telling her to do?

Sorry. I don’t know.

I’d like to know her mission myself. You don’t have any idea?

Since Papa was kidnapped,

-Mom’s been secretly calling this guy. -Guy?

Kevin -- my piano tutor.

She asked him about a video.

You deleted the video, right?

That's okay, then...

A video?

But, why do you need to know what her mission is?

Are you trying to stop her? If you stop her, Papa will be killed!

-No, no. That’s not what I’m trying to do! -No, no. Stay away from me!

My mission was the same. Kill someone.

That was an act.

She lied.

Are they telling her to do something?

Will that save Papa? What are they telling her to do?

EXPOSE THE SEX VIDEO WITH YOUR AFFAIR PARTNER TO THE LIGHT OF DAY

What is it?

What's this?

A record of our love.

Don't bullshit me!

And your beauty, too.

Delete it!

Is this the first time?

Of course.

Hey.

Trust me.

That was the first and the last.

From now on, I'm only recording you with these eyes.

Hi, Kevin.

Christina... What's the matter?

Sorry to keep bothering you. About that video...

That again? You saw me delete it.

That was the only one, right?

Of course it was. Trust me.

I do, but...

Something worrying you?

Anything I can do?

No, it's okay... Your voice makes me feel better.

Well, if something comes up, let me know. I'd do anything for you.

Thanks. I'll call again.

Emergency patient, Dr. Han.

Japanese?

Tokyo?

5 YEARS AGO

A brain tumor?!

She might not only go blind. She may even die.

No...

Please, you have to save her!

Yes, of course. I'll return to Seoul at once. I'll make sure she pulls through this.

Emergency patient, Dr. Han.

Doctor?!

Please! Save my child!

Please wait your turn.

No! He needs help!

Look at him! He spilled hot water on himself.

What if it leaves scars? Are you going to responsible for this?

Others are waiting.

Please, you have to save her!

Save my child. Right now, please.

-Others are waiting. -Doctor?

I'll examine him.

Thank you so much.

What about the emergency patient, Dr. Han?

What's wrong, Kiju?

I remembered how I met her.

Christina?

Yes, I treated her son five years ago, in Tokyo.

Five years ago? In Tokyo?

My mind was on Rian.

That's why I didn't remember.

Anything else you remember? Just her son?

My memory's hazy.

Give me some time. I'll look it up.

All right. Thanks.

Five years ago...

Put your anger aside. Show me your kindness...

Kindness that shields the weak...

That's the right thing for you to do.

What's wrong?

He's outside. The kiDnap GAME participant.

He asked me about you.

What's your mission, Mom? What do you have to do to get Papa back?

Answer me!

Is Kevin involved somehow? What's the video?

He's not...

I already know everything, okay?!

Why do you think I quit piano?

So you wouldn't see Kevin anymore!

He's not the man you think he is.

He took a pass at me, too.

That can't be true...

You only ever think about yourself.

No, I don't. I've always done my best.

For our family. To be a good mother.

All for yourself!

I only ever wanted you to be a mom.

Not a model or an "ageless beauty."

A proper mom. That's all I wanted.

I'll never forgive you if you abandon Papa.

Five years ago...? Yes, I more or less remember.

Any problems?

Nothing I can recall...

Could you look them up?

PM 06:51 TST

Sorry about this morning.

It’s fine. I know how you feel. Thanks.

Come in.

Good to see you.

I missed you.

Emergencies... 2021...

This is it.

You've suffered.

Help me forget.

Any information?

I'm sending you the examination records from that day.

Thanks.

TOKYO GENERAL MEDICAL CENTER RUI LIN

Gonna go shower.

Why were you trying to find me?

Pretty good, huh?

Remember when she took Rui to Japan?

I went too.

We're still together, even now.

Man, that body of hers...

Easy there, you're on video.

Think, who has the most to lose if the truth gets out?

How's this?

Buy this video from me.

You don't want to destroy everything your trophy wife worked for.

You okay?

Yeah.

-Why don't we... -I have to go.

NEW MESSAGE

Who's that?

NIIDE'S FRIEND? I'LL SEE YOU SOON.

What on earth...?

WHO ARE YOU?

Isn't that...?

It's him! Oh man!

-The reward money! -I want the reward!

100,000 YEN REWARD FOR FINDING HIM.

I see.

There he is!

Wow! I just might be a genius.

Where did you go?

It’s none of your business.

Wait... wait!

She asked him about a video.

Follow her!

There is nothing I can do.

Murderer! Give me back my Papa!

Give me back my Papa!

AM 05:50 TST

You okay?

Managed to shake off the police somehow. And you?

The men got away.

What happened?

The video was suddenly deleted.

-How? -Dunno... Someone might have interfered...

To stop her from completing her mission?

That's all I can think of...

Completing the mission and interfering both kill people. What are we supposed to do?

They're enjoying this.

Did you find anything out?

Nothing of note in the patient records.

I see.

There's one more thing I want to ask you...

There's someone at reception to see you.

Who?

A young man.

But something seems off about him...

-Tell security not to let him escape. -Okay.

We meet at last.

So you're the famous Akina Isobe.

Niide's friend... or Saori's?

You...

Are you a hothead too?

Why are you here?

I've brought you a scoop.

What do you want to know?

About the link between us.

It could be a clue.

"Since you continue to act like a fool, I have prepared a new stage for you."

"A new stage"?
