CHARACTERS, PLACES, ORGANIZATIONS, AND EVENTS IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS

SAFETY OF CHILD ACTORS WAS ENSURED

Everyone.

Gaetal isn't one person.

Anyone who wants to fight corruption and promote justice in this world

can become a watchdog.

All of us are Gaetal.

CHAE DO-HEE'S KILLING VOTE SPECIAL

Hello.

This is The Killing Vote Special

and I'm your host, Chae Do-hee.

Three months ago, the Killing Vote sent shock waves across the country.

And recently, the host of the Killing Vote, Gaetal,

reaffirmed he was alive and well in an extraordinary fashion.

Tonight, we're presenting this surprise special

to show how he has the nation's full support.

...and promote justice in this world

can become a watchdog.

All of us are Gaetal.

The moment he suggested that all of us could be Gaetal,

we at SBNS knew we had to do this.

A just society is a society

where each and every one of us is able to voice our opinions.

These are the message boards on our network's website

where you can share your stories.

Please feel free to share any instances of injustice or corruption

that Gaetal may have missed for the Killing Vote.

The stories with the most likes

will be presented by me on this program.

Please keep in mind that each user account

can share and like only one story every 24 hours.

The identity and credibility of sources

will be thoroughly vetted before broadcasts.

Now, let me introduce tonight's special guest.

Please come on out.

Former justices of the Supreme Court, former Prosecutor Generals,

currently active lawyers, and former chiefs of police.

Meet our fact checkers, who will share their honest views

on truth, justice, sentencing, and judgments.

And here's our message to all the Gaetals who are watching this.

I hope you see our intentions to become watchdogs.

And until our society achieves rational justice,

I will stand by your side.

EPISODE 9

Drop the knife!

- Stay away! - Requesting backup.

The suspect being transferred has taken a hostage!

Some have been injured.

Move!

Press the button!

The suspect is moving with the hostage.

Lee Min-soo's first letter

is missing.

Where is it?

What was the letter about?

SUPERINTENDENT KIM MU-CHAN

It's Kwon Seok-joo.

What?

Calm down.

Let's talk it out, okay?

It's always been him.

The real Gaetal who started the Killing Vote.

It's Kwon Seok-joo.

Kwon Seok-joo!

Kwon Seok-joo has escaped!

- Sir! - Sir, what are you doing?

Move!

No, please don't.

Jung Jin-wook!

Plate number 7980. It's a water truck!

Kwon Seok-joo has escaped! Situation room, now!

What's the matter, ma'am?

Please tell us why...

- Hey! - Wait!

Can't you find them faster?

Hey, he's entering a tunnel.

A water truck is entering Sanggok Tunnel from the south.

There must have been an accident. Darn it.

What's going on?

What are you doing?

Hey! Move the truck!

What on Earth is going on?

Darn it.

Kwon Seok-joo changed his clothes and ran.

Check both sides for motorcycles that exited.

Motorcycles in the tunnel?

There were two motorcycles in the truck. Start the search now.

- Okay. - Darn it.

Darn it.

DEAR PROFESSOR KWON

Professor, how's life in there?

I was reading a book,

and I came across a part about Joseph the tattletale.

I had a friend who was a tattletale when I was young too.

But I gave this friend a second chance.

I carried out justice so they wouldn't be a devil who was deemed innocent.

But now, I guess they'll forever be a child

along with their cherished pet dog.

The Body of Christ.

LET'S TELL THE WORLD ABOUT THIS SIN

JI-HOON

Goodness.

Go get him right now.

You lost Kwon Seok-joo, so I want you to bring him back!

I apologize, sir.

Well, he literally broke down the walls of the police agency.

How could she have stopped that?

Are you siding with her?

If only the guard had come on time, he wouldn't have escaped.

Fighting amongst ourselves won't help us catch him.

Let's put out an APB on him first.

Excuse me?

How are you going to explain

he escaped from the police agency and not from prison?

I told you if people find out

we took Kwon out of prison, we'll all be hung out to dry!

That's why we should hurry and catch him!

You could lose your job trying to save face.

You punk! How dare you?

Let's do things the right way!

The moment that brat Kim Mu-chan

steps into this room again, you better tell me right away. Got that?

Hello, Warden.

Right. I'm terribly sorry.

Quiet? Yes, I made sure everyone keeps this quiet.

Of course, we must catch him as soon as possible.

The Commissioner is also uneasy about this situation.

It's okay. We'll just catch him.

You can't even hail a taxi in Korea without the internet,

so how dare he mess with the Cyber Bureau?

Jjoo, let's start by going through Jung Jin-wook's phone again.

From now on...

This still hurts.

It's war.

Hey. How's Jung Jin-wook?

Surgery went well, but he's still unconscious.

All right, stay with him today.

And get some shut-eye if you need to.

Call me when he wakes up.

- Will do, sir. - All right.

Jung Jin-wook's not awake yet.

How could the two have communicated? I haven't the faintest idea.

Nobody knew Kwon Seok-joo was out except for our team.

You know none of us would ever do that.

That's what makes it more puzzling.

Lee was suspected to be Gaetal, so he was going to be released anyway.

So why escape now?

Isn't it obvious?

He's trying to kill Lee Min-soo himself, just as he killed Byun.

He's still holding grudges about what happened eight years ago.

You saw how he even targeted you on the Killing Vote.

In any case, just wait it out at home for a few days.

The higher-ups know it's hard to proceed without you,

so they'll call you back soon.

Kwon Seok-joo and Lee Min-soo.

I'll catch them both.

Cover for me for a few days.

I can't do it for long, so come back soon, okay?

You know I'm retiring soon.

It seems the professor's picnic is over.

CCTV OPERATE, CANCEL

That bastard...

When did he join forces with Lee Min-soo?

Lee Min-soo?

Are you sure?

I doubt Number Five did this alone.

Hacking and stealing a program

and deleting all the data left in the server that quickly?

Only experts can do that.

Does this mean all of our identities will be revealed?

I've secured the main server on my side, so we're pretty safe,

but there will have to be many changes to our plan.

Right. How's Number Four?

He was shot and is in the hospital now.

I haven't heard about him since.

I hope the professor can at least join us without any trouble.

I'll start restoring the data first.

I'm at the playground. I won't leave until you come, so you better show up.

- Darn it. - "Darn it"?

What? Were you guys planning to meet here?

I was wondering if we had a mole,

and it was you.

What about yourself? Talk about perfect timing.

How come he escaped just as you figured out he was Gaetal?

You just can't lose an argument, can you?

You see, the director's scolding didn't hurt me at all.

However,

my anger has reached its limit for sure.

Did you find anything?

You knew they'd search this place first, so you wouldn't be here without a reason.

There is no big reason.

I just wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything for trusting him too much.

That's why I came.

Well, I'm here because I still can't believe

that Lee Min-soo isn't Gaetal.

If we search his house and seize his computers and servers now,

I'm sure we'd find evidence. Don't you think so?

You weren't sure about him either.

You felt like Lee and Gaetal weren't the same person.

At first, yes.

But you saw his reaction when you were the Killing Vote's target.

Only the real Gaetal would react like that.

Apparently, he was her best friend.

He's in every one of her drawings.

He was her brother, not her friend.

Na-rae was murdered when Kwon was about to adopt him,

and the adoption never happened.

Kwon said they lost contact,

but we should look for him.

Hey.

That threatening text was so old-fashioned.

"I won't leave until you come"? Seriously?

Then, why did you come?

And is it that hard to reply to one text? Why...

I haven't even eaten yet.

If you keep hitting me,

you might probably kill me.

Jeez.

I'm actually really touched.

Hurry and take it. My arms hurt.

Thank you, ma'am.

One's for me.

JI-HOON

All done.

Hyun said I should give up too.

And Hye-mi said boys who leave you on read...

I mean...

I was trying to reach you, because I'm the class president.

It's been so long since anyone's looked for me like that.

Who else looked for you?

My sister.

Wherever I went, she'd always call me.

Right. She actually said the same thing too.

"I won't leave until you come."

"You said you'd go with me, so hurry and come."

So that's why I came.

You reminded me of my sister.

Did your sister go somewhere?

Your house has been empty the past two days.

- My house? - Shinyeon Complex, Building 206, Unit 901.

Well...

We don't live together.

And Grandma is on a trip.

I see.

But is that place...

really your house?

Yeah.

But...

we're moving soon.

So from now on,

stop waiting for me here.

Fine.

Ji-hoon, your house...

Sorry, but I have to go.

My father's here to pick me up.

I'm really sorry.

What's wrong with him?

How have you been?

How do you find out where someone actually lives?

Are you trying to find out where your teacher lives?

Kim Ji-hoon.

Ji-hoon?

Did he receive his counseling?

The police even came to our school, because his address was wrong.

They said no one lives at the address registered in the school records.

No one's ever lived there.

Why don't you ask him yourself?

We at SBNS...

When I was just about to ask,

he left with his dad.

Dad?

Didn't he say his parents passed away...

Maybe they're divorced.

He's acting suspicious, isn't he? It's like he's hiding something.

Just focus on your studies.

And if you ditch because I'm too busy to pick you up,

you're dead meat.

Whatever.

And here's our message to all the Gaetals who are watching this.

I hope you see our intentions to become watchdogs.

And until our society achieves rational justice,

I will stand by your side.

I'm so sorry.

I should've made sure security was tighter.

He had it all planned out, so how could you stop him by yourself?

He was always a little off.

I should've watched him more closely.

This is no one's fault.

We just chose the wrong person from the start.

He must've leaked information, so let's close this place down.

What about Number Three?

We can't be sure Number Three won't act like Number Five either.

We know each other very well, but you said he's a bit different.

He would never turn against us.

We go back a long way.

And at this moment, his position could be more valuable than anything else.

We must trust him.

Let's go home first.

We need to move fast before the police goes public with their pursuit.

It must have been so tough.

I'm so sorry.

This time...

let's catch him at all cost.

We will.

POLICE BRUTALITY, EVIDENCE FORGERY THE FOURTH KILLING VOTE: KIM MU-CHAN

This is insane!

It's even better than I expected.

The speed, the system...

I love everything about this program.

That Number One guy made this, but you really don't know who he is?

I told you I've never met him in person.

I used to think that maybe they all knew each other except me,

but now, I don't even care.

Darn it.

Where's the hideout?

You have to keep your promise if you want to see what I know.

Money and revenge.

Just lie low, okay? And don't use the internet.

The second you leave a trace, they'll come find you.

Don't let your guard down, okay?

MOM: KWON SEOK-JOO ESCAPED

My dear professor must be so angry.

Min, did you watch Chae Do-hee's show?

I've been staying up all night reading all the comments.

Do you think Gaetal's really watching this show?

It would be awesome if this is the next vote.

A DRUNK DRIVER KILLED MY PARENTS

SAVE

Looks like you're a little late, sir.

Ji-hoon?

Right?

How are you this morning?

You're scaring the students.

This is incredibly rude.

Mr. Lee Yun-seong.

"Without being detained" doesn't mean you're innocent.

It's still our duty

to keep an eye on you as a murder suspect.

We must protect the students too.

You're saying you're here to protect my students from me?

Mr. Lee, can we talk later?

All right.

It was convenient to play hooky while I wasn't around, right?

I'm sorry. I needed some time off.

Attendance is important for college admissions,

so I'll record it as sick leave for you.

Submit the sick leave request with proof by tomorrow.

Yes, sir.

By the way, did you move?

The police came by school and said you didn't live there.

Min didn't know where you lived either,

so the police officer came for nothing.

Min...

met with a police officer?

The police officer said

Min's sister made a request for you to receive counseling.

Are you and Min's sister close?

Ji-hoon.

Yes?

Thank you.

I watched the first episode.

FAMILY COMMITS SUICIDE DUE TO REAL ESTATE SCAM

The show's ratings were ranked first.

It's a smooth start. Now, it's time to kick it into high gear.

I've emailed you the stories and instructions for the next episode,

so use them when you prepare the show.

The case of a family's suicide after a real estate scam.

Don't make this awkward.

You gave me the cue sheet, so let me handle the rest.

CONTACTING THOSE INVOLVED IN TOP TWO LIKED POSTS

- Make sure to fact check properly. - I will.

You can't fabricate the content of TV shows these days, you know.

If we get caught for manipulation, we'll be in serious trouble.

Ms. Chae. Two years ago,

you made your way up the ranks after exclusively covering news on me.

I've always wondered why you never had any big stories since.

But now, I can see why.

You're not too bright.

Should I pretend I didn't hear that

or was it your mistake?

I'm saying while you may see one step ahead, I see the bigger picture.

What?

POSTS RANKED BY MOST LIKED

Don't tell me you're...

Are you manipulating the message boards?

I'm the one who made this game you're playing.

Let's not forget that, okay?

Hello?

KIM MU-CHAN

Well, look who's calling.

What's up?

Do you need me?

We need to put out an APB on him and search every corner.

We don't have time for this.

Right. A public search can't be official.

If people find out

the cops got help from a prisoner, it would be embarrassing.

It turns out Kwon Seok-joo

got a lot of special treatment.

Since when are prisoners in this country

allowed to have this in their cells?

It looks very dangerous.

Look here.

Those jailhouse lawyers like Inmate 0512

trade their legal smarts to live the good life behind bars.

You know nothing.

If he received such good treatment,

then it must mean Inmate 0512 had a client with high status.

A guard?

No.

The warden.

You sure do talk like a jerk.

Come on.

Police investigations always begin with suspicions.

Guards, the warden...

Everyone in this prison is a suspect.

- Suspect? - Yes, a suspect.

We're going to start the investigation

assuming that everyone in this prison is Kwon's potential communication link.

First off,

we need to meet his doctor.

He was getting regular check-ups.

She happens to be off today.

The suspect, I mean.

That no good...

She isn't stationed in the prison.

She comes twice a week as a volunteer.

Yang Hye-jin.

Yang Hye-jin?

PERSONAL INFORMATION YANG HYE-JIN

Dr. Yang from Saehyeon Hospital?

Do you know her?

That's Tae-yang.

Of course, I remember him.

He was such a smart kid.

We're looking for Professor Kwon Seok-joo. He wanted to adopt Kim Tae-yang.

Do you remember Professor Kwon?

Of course.

He visited here often with his daughter. He made a lot of donations too.

And when he said he wanted to adopt Tae-yang despite his illness,

I was so grateful.

I never knew he was ill.

Tae-yang witnessed his parents' deaths.

When he first came here,

he had been decimated by shock and anger.

He couldn't speak.

Could I meet him?

Luckily, he was adopted by a great family.

And I don't want to remind him of what happened then.

JOO HYUN

I searched Kwon Seok-joo's room,

but there were no traces of him.

Nothing about the accomplices either.

How did he communicate with them and direct the Killing Vote?

I'm sure he is even with the accomplices now.

It's obvious where escaped convicts hide.

They go to their families, friends, lovers, or their prison friends.

Have you looked into any of his acquaintances?

Speaking of which,

remember Kwon was suffering from a collapsed lung?

The doctor who's been treating him for years

turned out to be the grandmother of the boy that Captain Oh took hostage.

Dr. Yang Hye-jin from Saehyeon Hospital.

A doctor and a patient. The guard said it was nothing more than that.

But it's too suspicious to consider as a coincidence.

Out of all hospitals, it's Saehyeon Hospital?

Too many coincidences mean it's not a coincidence.

Does it apply to investigations too?

The grandmother is Kwon's doctor, and the grandson is Lee's student.

Like you said, it's too much of a coincidence.

- I'll go meet her. - Okay.

Jo-dan is trying to figure out her address.

What?

I've got to go.

What's she doing here?

An inmate serving time escaped while helping police in an investigation.

The inmate's name is Kwon Seok-joo.

A heinous criminal who exacted revenge eight years ago on the suspect acquitted

for the abduction and murder of his daughter.

According to our sources,

Kwon had been staying here at Nambu Police Agency

as a major witness and advisor for a recent case.

For allowing a criminal to reside at the police agency in return for help

and for helping him escape, the police are expected to face severe criticism.

Hey, it's unfair to put it like that.

She's making this harder for us.

I know. But how did they find out?

The commissioner told us to keep our mouths shut.

Exactly. Is one of us leaking information?

Whether we leak information or not,

they'll always find a way to get what they want.

What's out is already out, so let's focus on finding Kwon.

Have you found any family members he might have gone to?

- Hey, Cyber Bureau. - Yes?

Right. Yes.

All his family members either live abroad or have passed away.

So I'm looking into the inmates he shared sentence periods with.

And I'm waiting for a response from the KCS.

And as for his friends,

it's like a desert.

He has zero friends, like me.

GAETAL NUMBER ONE ARE YOU READY?

I suddenly feel upset.

Good work. See you later.

Wait. Hold on!

Wait!

Hey, get out of the car!

That little...

Darn it!

I'm Kim Mu-chan from Nambu Police Agency.

The warden must've called you.

Yes, he did.

But I don't feel comfortable with such unexpected visits at this hour.

Let's meet somewhere else on another day.

I want to say hi to Ji-hoon.

Do you know Ji-hoon?

Well, I'm the one who saved Ji-hoon at the incident in Saehyeon Hospital.

I wanted to check on him,

but I've been too busy with this case I'm working on.

Could we have a moment to talk?

This is very urgent.

Have a seat.

Thank you.

As you've probably heard, we're after an escaped inmate.

Inmate 0512.

He's had a collapsed lung for a while.

Do you think there's a chance he'll stop by at a hospital?

He managed his own condition well.

Unless his condition worsens,

I doubt he'll go to the hospital.

All his family members live abroad.

Has he ever said anything about who he wanted to meet

or where he wanted to go when he was released?

He barely talked about himself.

Rather, he asked me questions.

He'd ask about my grandson, for example.

He also asked how high school students study and what they do for fun these days.

Why was he interested in Ji-hoon?

Well...

Was it Na-rae?

His daughter's name.

I assumed the reason was if she were still alive, she'd be his age.

Having a private conversation with an inmate isn't as easy as you think.

I see.

Thank you for your cooperation.

If Inmate 0512 ever contacts you or shows up, please let me know.

You must not meet him alone.

Okay.

Is Ji-hoon's room upstairs?

Ji-hoon.

What do you think you're doing?

I told you Ji-hoon isn't home!

Please come back down here!

What is the meaning of this?

It would've been nice to see him. What a shame.

He finishes school at 10 p.m.

I'll tell him you said hi.

Okay. Thank you.

I was so nervous.

Do you think we're all right?

Yes, you did well, just as we talked about.

Thank goodness you prepared me for this situation.

By the way, that detective seemed to know a lot about you.

Is he Number Three, by any chance?

YANG HYE-JIN CHILDREN: KIM JI-HOON

FAMILY RELATION CERTIFICATE

CHOI JIN-SOO

Hi, Jin-soo.

We need to gather more information about Dr. Yang from Cheongnang.

GAETAL MASKS FOR SALE

GAETAL MERCH

INMATE KWON ESCAPES FROM CHEONGNANG PRISON

Oh, no.

What's taking so long to catch him?

They need to catch him quick.

- What's the government doing? - I'm so scared.

Me too.

Where could he be?

- I'm scared. - I can't even go out anymore.

ASSUMED TO BE IN HIDING IN SEOUL

Hey!

Hey, Kim Mu-chan!

Hey, Director.

Yes, Commissioner.

Sang-jae.

I hear you have a new captain now.

Captain Kwon Seok-joo.

That's not cool.

How dare you glare at your superior officer like that?

I knew this would happen when I saw them form a team of jalopies.

How could you take investigation lessons from a criminal? How embarrassing.

What the...

Even jalopies can run you down.

"What the"? Is that how you talk to your colleagues?

What a scumbag.

I'm sorry, sir.

Let's go.

- How's Jung doing? - He's still unconscious.

The doctor suggests it might be psychological rather than physical.

Sir.

You really didn't take long.

We decided to put out an APB on Kwon.

Any luck with the plates?

We checked shops and found a few motorcycles with changed plates.

But we've yet to identify the drivers.

Now, we have to comb through all the CCTV footage.

And that's right up this team's alley.

I like this clear distribution of tasks.

As for Lee Min-soo, should we halt the investigation?

He's still the prime suspect in Jovovich's murder.

We'll continue to monitor him closely.

CYBER BUREAU

Where's the Cyber Bureau team?

Stop that. You look suspicious.

What? Fine.

Are you sure we can do this?

Come on. You saw Chae Do-hee's show too.

There's a mole in our team. I'm sure of it.

No one can know about this until the superintendent returns.

Are the time and location correct?

GAETAL NUMBER ONE AT 5:00 P.M., APRIL 20 INJEONG PARK

Okay.

This is brilliant. I didn't think of online communities of high schoolers.

Gaetal Number One must be the jerk who posted stuff to instigate people.

The system administrator.

Dragging kids into this is crossing the line.

I think we're the ones crossing the line.

Who'd think we were teenagers?

Then, keep your head down.

That's what I mean.

- Jjoo, he's here. - He is?

GAETAL NUMBER ONE WHERE ARE YOU?

IN A BLUE SCHOOL UNIFORM ON A BENCH

What?

She's...

You... Hey.

Wait! Stop!

Hey, aren't you Min's friend?

What are you doing? I don't know anything.

Just a second.

GAETAL NUMBER ONE

It's her.

Are you really Gaetal Number One?

I'm just...

a fan.

- What? - Number One asked me to come here.

SEE YOU WHEN THE WEATHER IS NICE

Darn it.

Wait.

BENCH, BLUE UNIFORM, DISGUISE

Jjoo.

This bastard has been watching us.

The message has been delivered.

Do you think they'll get the message?

I'm sure Joo Hyun will.

There's probably no way we can get the program back, right?

Voting day is drawing near,

and we don't know who will be the next target.

Lee's abusing it for his own good,

so it's better to get rid of it quickly.

SEE YOU WHEN THE WEATHER IS NICE

Just give up already.

He made a complete fool out of us.

It just bothers me how much effort he put into making fools out of us.

Why did he bother to send this message?

I guess he wants to go on a date with you on a nice day.

Go ahead then, Gaetal. Go ahead!

It's the weather that's nice, not the day.

Today's weather was nice too.

Nice weather...

What's the weather like this week?

Even these gloves are making a fool out of me.

TODAY'S WEATHER

TODAY'S WEATHER IS NICE

Hey, see if there's a weather app on Jung Jin-wook's phone.

Okay.

I don't see anything special.

APPS

What?

WEATHER APP WEATHER APP

I found it!

You startled me.

- What is it? - What?

I found it!

The secret behind Gaetal's message.

WEATHER APP WEATHER APP

Hello, everyone.

This is The Killing Vote Special. I'm your host, Chae Do-hee.

After announcing we'd accept stories, we were flooded with submissions.

Among the numerous heartbreaking and infuriating stories of the past week,

we'll reveal the story that received the most likes.

Land? Is this from a reliable source?

It's slated to be taken out of the greenbelt zone for development.

You know my cousin works for the Ministry of Land, right?

This is strictly confidential. Just invest 300 million won.

Well, it hasn't even been decided yet.

Forget it, then.

Once this land is developed, you'll hit the jackpot.

Don't you want to turn your life around?

"Turn your life around." These words changed his mind.

Only after taking out hundreds of millions in loans

and being sued by numerous victims of the real estate scam did he realize...

that he was registered as the chairman of a real estate agency.

Some higher-up in the back was looking for you.

Legally, in a situation like this...

Okay. Thanks.

We're with the special investigation unit.

I'm Lieutenant Joo Hyun.

- What's going on? - Go and see what's going on!

What are you doing?

We, the police, will now show you

the truth behind Gaetal and the Killing Vote.

If you're watching this show,

please take a look at the apps on your smartphones.

Normally, you cannot download the same app twice on your smartphone.

But look. There are two weather apps.

WEATHER APP WEATHER APP

She's right.

Goodness, she's right.

One of them is the hidden app

that Gaetal installed by illegally hacking your phones.

Default apps like weather and map apps are typically set for auto-updates.

Gaetal used that to intrude into your most private spaces.

- Delete it. - Gaetal hacked everyone's smartphones,

installed an invisible malicious program,

and used all of us to justify his serial murders.

That is Gaetal.

No more,

no less.

I'm going to kill him!

Damn it, I'm going to kill him!

I'm going to kill them all!

Please calm down.

Yun-seong!

Calm down.

Keep it together and breathe.

Breathe.

Yun-seong.

You don't need to be mad.

This isn't over yet.

Honey.

When humans commit crimes together,

they never forget that feeling of exhilaration.

Just trust me and watch.

To the public,

justice is merely a fantasy.

I told you my arresting skills have improved.

You ruined my show. I'm going to sue you.

You're the one who started this.

Forcing this stupid show to air may have been fine,

but revealing confidential case details to screw us crossed the line.

Wake up!

Your show has nothing to do with justice. It's just a contract killing show.

Is there no teamwork on your team?

If you want deceive, at least get your stories straight.

What are you talking about?

I didn't find this out myself. You told me.

This is why people call you pigs, not police.

Think about it.

Who would be good at this?

Hyun.

What are you doing? We have to hurry back.

Were you really the one who tipped them off about Kwon's escape?

Yes.

That was the fastest way for me to get back to work.

Do you have any idea how much criticism fell on us after that?

That criticism

will be gone once we catch Kwon and end the Killing Vote. If you bear it--

Then, how is that any different from Chae Do-hee

and that crazy show pretending to be for justice?

You've been planting evidence to catch criminals

and leaking information to screw over your own team.

To me, that's not what a good cop would ever do.

A righteous but incompetent cop or a bad competent one?

Who do we need more?

Being a cop is not just about honor.

Fine!

Let's say you're right.

But still,

I don't want to be your pawn.

I'm going back to my original team.

Kwon Seok-joo may be Gaetal,

but we didn't have to make him look like an evil felon.

You're a total disappointment.

Don't you think of starting your own investigation.

Don't you dare!

WEATHER APP WEATHER APP

It's surging again.

He's using enough electricity for the entire town.

Gosh, this is electrifying.

Everyone must be frantically looking for Kwon.

I feel bad that we're doing this here.

Jjoo.

Are you sure you want to do this alone?

There's a reason why Gaetal gave us a hint about the weather app.

If he told the police about his secret for nothing,

then that means it wasn't a secret anymore.

He told us about the secret for...

Put it into simple words, please?

Gaetal's having problems within his team.

For instance, the system administrator lost the entire system,

or they're having internal strife.

Are you saying Kwon Seok-joo might have lost

his control over the Killing Vote to Lee Min-soo?

Then, his reason for escaping makes sense.

Right?

So that's why

I have to look into Lee Min-soo's computer.

No.

There's no way you can do that. His place has airtight security.

No way.

Jeez. None of these people deleted the app.

Goodness, nothing has changed.

It's so fun that they'd risk leaking their personal data.

They can basically kill a person with one click.

Everyone's gone crazy.

Yes, so it seems.

I BELIEVE THE VOTE WILL HAPPEN

WOULD YOU LIKE TO START THE KILLING VOTE?

Hello, my fellow citizens.

I am well aware of your loss of faith in me

after the unfortunate incident that took place recently.

I'll keep it short.

I still believe

that we are working together

to monitor and uphold justice.

Therefore, I will take your appeals from the TV show seriously.

Bang Chun-sik.

His real estate scam destroyed numerous families.

A family crushed by debt and litigation was pushed to commit suicide

because of this con artist.

Will you choose to execute him? Yes?

Or no?

Now, let the Killing Vote on Bang Chun-sik begin.

Maximum transaction value.

And...

confirm.

Transaction complete.

Don't be mad, my friend.

Cryptocurrency prices have plummeted, so I added just a little interest.

Fine. I did pretend to be a victim too.

I sold the land knowing everything.

But you didn't have to put all the blame on me and send me to prison.

My wife and child died because of that.

You scumbag.

Five.

Four.

Three. Two.

One.

Ta-da!

EXECUTE: 53%

Hold on.

Darn it.

It's him, Bang Chun-sik.

The participation rate didn't drop much.

The people who deleted the app were less than we thought.

How is this possible?

Murder has already become like a game to them.

Let's first compile a list of those Bang has scammed.

We'll start with the family who committed suicide.

We're living in such convenient times.

KWON SEOK-JOO, JUNG JIN-WOOK, LEE MIN-SOO

Kwon Seok-joo, Jung Jin-wook, Lee Min-soo.

Let me add Ko Dong-gyu here.

Ko Dong-gyu.

- Ko Dong-gyu? - Why over Lee Min-soo?

Lee Min-soo isn't Gaetal.

KO DONG-GYU

Done.

YANG HYE-JIN?

Gosh, it's not breathing at all. Come on, breathe.

The router isn't routing at all.

It must be frustrated.

I'll do my best to fix this.

Excuse me, ma'am.

Is there only one router here?

There must be another one upstairs.

I'm not sure if there's one in their son's bedroom.

You see, someone crashed into a utility pole nearby,

so the entire neighborhood lost internet connection.

Since you're using a lot of electricity

and have an expensive internet plan,

there must be something upstairs too.

I'm not allowed into their son's bedroom either.

Please get it done before my boss's family returns.

Okay.

Connect to the internet in ten.

- To do what? - Just trust me.

Don't!

Jjoo, I got it.

It's working now.

- It's working. - By the way,

could I have a glass of water before we leave?

One second, please.

What? What's wrong?

My partner? She already left.

She's so busy. She kept getting calls from other households.

I see.

Thank you. I will happily drink this water.

Is this water expensive?

Since it's expensive, I'll have another glass. Thank you.

What's all this?

How can he use such an expensive security program

without any ethernet sockets in the room?

I don't even see a router.

And there are so many IPs here. What's going on here?

Maybe he has separate room for it.

Like a study.

The housekeeper never mentioned that.

Darn it.

Weird.

What is this?

There's something here.

Have a good day.

Have a good day, sir.

- Have a good day. - You too. Bye.

What a weirdo.

I got you now.

SCANNING IRIS

Where's the computer tower?

There it is.

PASSWORD COMBINER

I got it.

I'm on my way home. Almost there. What about you, Mom?

MOVING FILES

What?

He locked the videos.

I can't save or copy them.

Even though you're using his account?

Try changing the security settings.

There are too many things to copy.

I think I'll need more storage space.

I need more storage space.

Darn it.

Wait.

No.

The door's closed!

Damn it!

The door's closed.

I'm locked in here!

What do we do?

I told you not to go in there.

Gosh!

First, calm down. Okay? Calm down and...

- Wait, I need to calm down. - What do I do?

Let's stay calm.

There's got to be something here.

You've got to be kidding me.

FUN FOLDER

What's this?

FUN FUN FILE

Dad, I miss you.

- You've got to be kidding me. - Damn it.

Na-rae, you're so pretty.

Isn't it fun to play with me?

- Where did you get this? - It was all Lee's doing.

Kwon had to escape,

because the vote was stolen?

I'm Gaetal.

How about we make the show together this time?

One week from now, there will be another vote.
