(Characters and incidents used in this drama are fictitious.)

The wife of a son of an assemblyman in office...

has been found dead at home.

The son is the key suspect,

but he's denying the charges.

(Episode 3)

I'll get to the point.

Are the victim's death and the assault the prosecutor claims...

(Witness)

Are they relevant?

No. The cause of death was not assault.

I knew he'd say that.

It's about the embryo found in her uterus.

Is that related to the defendant?

- Pardon? - Defense.

Elaborate on your question.

The embryo the victim was carrying...

had nothing to do with the defendant.

The main cause of their fights was...

I hate to mention it, but it was the deceased's unfaithfulness.

- He's slandering the victim. - Come on, what's he doing?

I'm only claiming that unverified statements must be removed.

Both the embryo and the victim passed away.

It's impossible for us to confirm the facts.

Sustained.

Let me ask you one more question.

She claims that the victim was endlessly abused.

Did the autopsy show that the defendant had beaten...

the victim?

It's impossible to pinpoint the assailant through autopsy.

The prosecution is deviating from the nature of the trial...

with the assault...

which has nothing to do with the victim's death or the defendant.

If you indicted him for murder,

provide evidence of the murder.

Prosecution. Would you like to cross-examine the witness?

- If you're not going to... - No, no. I will.

I'll cross-examine him.

- Then please proceed now. - Okay.

Is this the autopsy report of the victim you've filled out?

(Autopsy Report)

Yes, it is.

Could you read this part out loud?

"The cause is the acute poisoning..."

"of fluconazole along with multiple other drugs."

Fluconazole.

Isn't that used for athlete's feet?

Did the victim have athlete's feet?

No, I didn't find any signs of her having the condition.

Defendant, may I see your feet...

to check if you have athlete's feet?

Objection.

What are you doing?

This condition is an important point in this trial.

Proceed.

Defendant, did you hear her?

They are clean. You don't have athlete's feet either.

Allow me to submit a new piece of evidence.

Nice.

This record shows that...

the defendant was prescribed for fluconazole.

Defendant.

Why did you purchase this?

My wife asked me to get it.

- What? - Ma'am.

You do not know what anticoagulants are, do you?

Blood clots might cause prosthetic valve malfunction.

And that's the drug that prevents the blood from congealing.

Because her blood won't clot, she gets bruises all the time.

Every time she fell, it was a big mess.

Do you think she'd want to go out in that condition?

I bought everything for her.

All I did...

was buy the medicine my wife had asked for.

Getting prescribed for someone else...

doesn't constitute as murder.

How does that make sense?

She had asked for medicine that would kill her if she took it?

Didn't you forge the prescription?

You gave her this poisonous drug to kill her!

- Stop lying! - Watch your language!

You're the one who must stop using your intuition.

- Do you have proof? - That's enough.

Both of you. Approach the bench.

Prosecutor Eun, don't you think you need more evidence?

Your Honor, please grant me some more time.

I can prove this case.

What? Are you planning to change your arraignment?

Will you drop the murder charge?

- This will be a waste of time. - Your Honor.

I indicted him for murder.

There won't be any changes in that matter.

I understand.

Please go back to your seats for now.

This trial...

will resume three days later.

- Thank you, Your Honor. - However,

if you cannot provide evidence that supports the charge...

you indicted him for in the next trial,

we will acquit him of the charge immediately.

- We still have three days. - Yes.

It's better than nothing.

I'm glad we got a continuation.

Good job.

They completely crushed me, didn't they?

Unbelievable. How could he lie without even batting an eyelid?

Trials are competitions of liars.

Doesn't it look like they're trying to bet on...

which one is a better liar?

- And... - The truth that lasts...

- until the end wins. Is that it? - No.

The lie that sounds the most probable wins.

Hey, that can't be right.

No matter how probable it sounds, a lie is still a lie.

That can't be right.

Hyun, you seem a bit different.

How?

You used to look naive and innocent, but now, you sound a bit cynical.

Anyone would change after working as a prosecutor for 10 years.

Anyway, why did you volunteer to become a prosecutor?

I mean, does this fit you?

Why? Do I look weird in this?

No, it's not the robe.

You're a very warm person from a good family.

You have to be...

a bit colder to work as a prosecutor.

Did anything happen between then and now by any chance?

Why?

Do you think my family went under, so I came here to get revenge?

Goodness.

Hyun.

You're a great son whom your family expects a lot from, right?

Well...

I guess so.

That's not my case.

I'm someone who needs to continuously prove herself...

like a weed in a greenhouse.

I never know when I'll get weeded out.

But still, I feel confident.

You know very well that I was the nosiest girl...

and the mentalist of law school.

You're right.

Everyone said you gave the best solutions to their problems,

so they all came to you for advice.

You're very good at looking through people.

However, you can't do everything with your gut feelings.

Of course not.

But since I was a kid, I always knew when I saw something.

I knew what was the best.

I knew who was a great person and who wasn't.

Yes, I'll give you that.

But still, you'd better get ready for this.

Don't come crying to me when things don't go your way.

I'll be fine as long as I don't die.

The autopsy table was awfully cold. I hated it.

- What? - What?

Oh, nothing.

- Have a lot. - Sure.

Look at that. Dr. Baek is really thorough.

With what?

Taking forever with his autopsies?

He makes sure that he stays an outcast.

You know what?

We can't even get on the same bus.

There are 20 of us in this country.

What if we all got onto a bus and got into an accident?

Who will conduct autopsies? It'll become a country of killers.

We shouldn't do get-togethers, then.

That's an exception.

Anyway, Dr. Baek.

From now on, you aren't allowed in the autopsy room past midnight.

Hey, get changed.

That's like a school uniform to you.

I did get changed. These are new.

Leave him.

We used to order black bean noodles and eat them in the autopsy room.

That's taking things too far. What if you get infected?

That's back when we were all poor.

We all got tuberculosis and were hospitalized altogether.

So none of the medical examiners were on duty at that time,

praying that there wouldn't be any homicide cases.

Is that why we had so many unresolved cases?

It's just a joke.

We always stop laughing when we do autopsies.

Hey.

The case with Oh Pil Joong's daughter-in-law.

I heard she is presumed to have died in an accident.

You hate making presumptions.

Hello? This is Baek Beom.

Yes, on my way.

- Don't go. Finish your food. - It's work.

What are you doing?

I'm not done eating.

Who's going to drive? Me?

- Get up. - Congratulations, man.

Hello, Prosecutor Eun.

This way.

I told you to be careful.

You would've killed us all if there was poisonous gas!

- Gosh. - I'm so sorry.

That fat kid.

Look, it's written on the tank.

"Balloon World". It's helium.

Do you think people only put in helium into helium tanks?

Move.

Even with a different voice, he's still a psycho.

Temperature is 36°C. What's the temperature of the water?

It's 37°C.

The person died more than three hours ago.

That means the suspect couldn't have gone too far.

- Is this a rape murder? - You're writing up a novel again.

Don't you know what rigor mortis is?

(Rigor mortis: Postmortem rigidity)

She's covered with plastic and holding the hose with her hand.

Cause of death, oxygen in her lungs was replaced with helium gas.

It's suicide.

Wrap it up. Move.

Wait. Dr. Baek. One second.

Darn it, that old man.

Dr. Baek...

- Shouldn't you apologize to me? - For what?

You suddenly showed up at the trial and ruined everything.

You shouldn't be like this as someone on the same side.

Move. Let's go.

Wait.

I won't give up on this case.

- If there's anything we missed... - We missed nothing.

The autopsy is finished. The body was cremated.

The suspect was freed, and we don't have the crime scene.

This case is over.

- Aren't you going to go? - I will.

"We Found Her Dying Message"
-♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

(Coastal Road Car Accidents)

The autopsy is finished. The body was cremated.

The suspect was freed, and we don't have the crime scene.

This case is over.

Why did you come here?

That way.

What's that?

1, 2.

He was freed on bail. Well, naturally, of course.

You're here for nothing. Today is our cleaning day.

- Are you destroying evidence? - I'm getting rid of what's filthy.

Destroying evidence? Goodness.

Prosecutor Eun, it's all over. You need to get over it.

- The trial isn't over yet. - Right, we have two more days.

I am going to take him back in.

- I'll see you at court. - We'll be waiting for you.

Oh, right.

We've prepared a lot of stuff too, Prosecutor Eun.

(Seoul Eastern District Prosecutor's Office)

(Indictment, Facts of the offense, Reasons of indictment)

"Prosecutor Eun Sol used her status..."

"to humiliate, threaten,"

"and overuse her power to make a forced confession."

"She was rude and tried to coerce a confession,"

"and the defendant was gravely defamed."

"Without a warrant, she interviewed people..."

How dare they?

They're experts at toying with the law.

This is blackmail. You're a serving prosecutor,

and they threaten you legally?

We should ban them from spreading their seeds.

They do nothing but cause harm to society.

It's okay. I can deal with this.

- Are you okay? - Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Darn it.

I'm sure I have...

a spare pair of shoes.

(National Forensic Service)

What do you want?

Doctor, do you remember these?

The shoes you yelled at me over.

They're exactly how they were at that time.

I really love these shoes,

but I'll give you a chance to tear them apart.

Get out.

You see right through a dead body, but you don't get what I'm saying?

The crime scene's right here. On these.

We checked the scene.

I give it to you that you checked Kwon Hee Kyung thoroughly.

But I was the one,

the first one, to sit beside her dead body.

I was right next to her.

I'll see you in court.

As soon as Oh Man Sang got out, he got rid of the carpet.

There's something on it. I can sense it.

You got me to wear shoe covers to protect the shoes.

This is me officially requesting...

an emergency analysis.

Please identify whatever is on the soles of these heels.

As the lead prosecutor, I'm giving the order...

No.

It's not an order. Initiate.

I'm initiating another investigation, Dr. Psycho.

This is the last time.

These are designer shoes.

Cut up the other one too.

There's a good repair shop nearby.

It's okay.

I waited for three years and wore them just once.

There is powder.

It's pink with very rough edges. It looks man-made.

Get Toxic Substances Division to identify it.

Will anyone be in?

- Yes. - Of course.

Okay.

Hey, guys. I identified what was on the sole.

It's a poison. Oh my, poison.

She's from Toxic Substances Division.

Her name is Stella Hwang.

Stella?

- Hello. - She's the best in her field.

This is Prosecutor Eun Sol.

Ciao.

I found fluconazole.

The powder here is from a crushed-up fluconazole pill.

What?

Why would someone crush a pill?

Good point.

Why go to such lengths?

There's something wrong with the situation.

That's the wrong question.

Who crushed it?

He did it on purpose.

Immediate rigor mortis.

What didn't she want to let go of even while dying?

She was holding onto something desperately.

Where was her right hand before you moved her?

You have a good memory.

Her pocket. It was in her pocket.

It's not this side.

It fell through the hole.

- Foxetin? - Give me that.

It was opened then closed.

That's why it was crushed.

To put in this capsule.

We found her dying message.

That's scumbag's done for.

Will there be prints on the capsule?

Pour him a drink.

What would you like?

A boilermaker?

Whatever.

Congratulations.

You've practically won.

Congratulations on what?

Shall I congratulate you lot...

on getting a bonus?

You didn't do anything.

You make me pay you by the second.

Did you see the prosecutor glare and talk back at me?

Do you want me dead?

- Pardon? - That's a lot of whiskey.

Do you want me knocked out?

No, sir.

- Are you married? - Yes.

What does your husband do?

What makes you think you can act so stiffly around me?

That's enough, sir.

Are you mocking me?

You like my money. You take everything I pay you.

Are you mocking me?

Hey.

Be careful.

Pour me more.

I'll die for you.

Die-hard coffee. It's what we call our brew.

I must've dozed off.

Are you tired? Try it.

Thank you.

For someone who...

researches toxic substances, you're very...

Pretty?

Guess what? Cleopatra was a fan of toxins too.

Beauty and poison.

It's a charming combination.

Right.

Where's Dr. Baek Beom?

He left excitedly.

He's excited?

When he finds something unexpected, he gets super high.

Did you get prints?

The capsules are so small.

They're all partials and will take time.

We're checking every trace we found on them.

The hearing's at 1pm.

Use this for now.

What's this?

There was so little, so I could only request one test.

What test?

For how long must a good man be suspected for killing his wife?

We will not put up with the prosecutor's tyranny.

To show how we feel about the prosecutor...

who assumed my client was guilty and coerced him,

we refuse to respond to her questions.

We invoke the right to remain silent.

Then why did you bother coming to court? You're talking...

2-1 of Article 283 of the Inspection Procedure Act states...

that the defendant can refuse to...

give a statement or answer certain questions.

Sustained.

This looks bad.

Won't the hearing end in 10 minutes?

(Defense Counsel)

- What a sly loach. - Will you question the defendant?

May I still question the defendant regardless of his intent to answer?

Proceed the cross-examination now.

According to Article 283 of Criminal Procedure Code,

he refuses to answer.

Do you remember the embryo the victim was carrying...

and your claim that it had nothing to do with you?

I was very curious about the father of the baby.

(National Forensic Service)

It's inside this envelope.

This is the result of the paternity test...

the NFS performed with the tissues acquired from the embryo.

- No way. A paternity test? - My gosh, is that even possible?

If you wish, I will show it to you.

However, there is one condition.

We only found the victim's fingerprints.

She must have held them tightly when she passed away.

Did you find anything else other than her prints?

I did find some synthetic rubber. That could be just about anything.

What is it?

What about them?

Latex. Isn't this synthetic rubber?

But what will you do with the gloves?

Well, if you don't want to know, I'll discard the result.

Wait.

What did you say?

Get it.

This won't affect the trial. Why would you...

Will he answer my questions then?

Yes, he will.

(National Forensic Service)

(Judge)

(Paternity Test Result)

Sir, we have a match.

- Where is it? - Right here.

(Fingerprint Analysis)

All right. Should we continue?

These are the pills we found...

in the victim's pocket on the day of the incident.

She didn't submit the evidence in advance.

This evidence was...

expedited to be evaluated by the Trace Evidence Division...

of the NFS this morning.

We will allow the evidence. You may continue.

This is fluconazole which killed the victim.

However,

we found something very strange regarding the pills.

Let me show you myself.

Give it to her.

When you grind the fluconazole tablets,

they become powder.

Your Honor.

- What is the point of all this? - Let her finish.

You may continue.

Okay.

These is a foxetin capsule.

I'll empty it.

Can you see?

It's a foxetin capsule, but fluconazole is inside.

This is...

the poisonous drug...

in which he replaced the content to kill the victim.

- What's going on? - Is this true?

Didn't you make this to kill your wife?

(Episode 4 will air shortly.)
