A Model Family (2022–…): Season 1, Episode 3 - Episode #1.3 - full transcript

I LOVE YOU, HYUN-WOO

His surgery was yesterday.

Does it mean more to you than your son?

I know. I'm sorry.

But, how am I supposed to tell him
I can't make it?

Those damn professors are
blood-sucking vampires.

They're like demons
trying to ruin our family!

You don't have to become a professor.

Let's just try to be happy ourselves.

Hyun-woo's sick.

And Yeon-woo walks on eggshells
because of that.



That's exactly why I'm trying so hard.

I have to at least get
that job as a professor

so we can pay
for Hyun-woo's medical bills.

Try watching Hyun-woo all day long!

It breaks my heart. It's killing me!

I know.

Everything will get better.

Trust me, okay?

-Mom.
-Yes?

Mom.

I'm perfectly fine.

Let's go home.

I want to run away.

-Get him!
-Stop right there!



You're all set.

How did you get hurt?

The window...

The window broke.

Make sure to clean your wound
and have the stitches removed in a week.

Is there anything you can do properly?

Hey, come and load this too.

-Do you have to go this far?
-Hello.

What are you moving
into that neighborhood for?

There's a surveillance team.
Have them do it. Don't go yourself.

A team leader has
her own set of responsibilities.

You're right. That's why I'm doing this.

It's dangerous
when you're hot on the trail.

And that's exactly why I have to go.

Who would I send?

Then take more guys with you.

You're dealing with brutal thugs.
Plus, something ended up happening.

I'll wrap this case up well,
and get you a medal.

So you can get promoted.

That sounds sarcastic to me.

I know...

how you felt about Han-cheol,

but this isn't my fault.

Han-cheol wanted to do it.
Nobody forced him.

That's why we acted like
it never happened. Didn't we?

-Yun-seok.
-Yes, ma'am.

-Be careful out there.
-Yes, ma'am.

-And take good care of Joo-hyun.
-Yes, ma'am.

-Goodbye.
-Bye.

What? Hurry up.
Are you going to move these all night?

Yes, ma'am.

Where did you go last night?
And what's wrong with your face?

I just couldn't fall asleep,

so I went on a little drive
to Waterside Park.

When I got there, I fell down a hill.

Like a moron.

I heard that park is packed with perverts.

Perverts? I didn't see any.

You look so manly
with that scar on your face.

Very macho.

Thanks.

I'm leaving.

Yeon-woo, let's go together.
I'll give you a ride on my way.

Yeon-woo!

Park Yeon-woo!

Yeon-woo!

Stop it. Why aren't you acting yourself?

I'm just going to take the bus.

Come on, you can ride with me in the car,

and we can chat. It'll be nice.

Excuse me.

Do you live in this house?

-Yes, I do.
-I see.

Do you remember the last time
you saw the man who lives in front of you?

I'm not sure.

I think I saw him two nights ago.

What's going on?

Oh, okay.

We got a call
because his dog kept barking,

but there was no one inside.

Did you ever notice
anything strange about him?

Strange?

I'm not sure.

I didn't know him too well.

So, you had no idea that he's been
growing marijuana inside his house?

"Marijuana"?

I thought I heard screaming
coming from that house last night.

I heard someone yell
"Where is it?" at least ten times.

-Really?
-Maybe that's why the police came.

-Is your son okay?
-Yes, he is.

I didn't even get a chance
to say thank you.

I really appreciated
your help the other day.

This must be your daughter.

Yes, she is.

Do you work night shifts, too?
You seem to go out at night often.

No, not really.

I just go on a lot of walks at night.

You take your car to go on walks?

All right, then. I'll see you around.

Okay.

REGARDING DEATH
EAST ASIAN PERSPECTIVE ON DEATH

He's so annoying.

-What's with him?
-What is he even doing?

-What's going on?
-Put this in the van.

Yes, sir.

-He grew them in his house?
-Yes.

There are more boxes inside.

Is that legal?

We got almost everything.

I know.

Okay.

All right, thank you. Have a good day.

He's never been caught for narcotics,
and no priors whatsoever.

I don't think the weed guy
has anything to do with our case.

All right.

Sir, we have a report from one
of the places we scattered their photos.

He said a strange man
showed up to launder some cash,

but then ran away after causing a ruckus.

Where was it?

It's one of the businesses
connected to the boss.

-Who's the guy that went there?
-I don't know.

They tried to find out who he was,
but he took off.

It wasn't any of our guys.

We found him.

He's a university professor.

But would a professor have done that?

Call the cleaners,
and ask if this is the guy.

Good afternoon.

Good afternoon...

Good afternoon, I'm calling
about the disappearance of...

No, that's not it.

Yongbong Village...

Yes, good afternoon.

I would like to call in with a tip.

Well, it's about
the Yongbong Village case...

I'm talking about the person
growing marijuana at his house.

Yes, him. But, something seems off
about the people living across from him.

No, I didn't see anything myself.
I just heard from someone...

I don't live in that neighborhood,
so I'm not sure.

My name?

Why do you need to know my name?

No, this isn't a prank call.

Just, please look into it. Thank you.

Why am I here...

What the hell are you doing here...

And what happened to you?

-Joo-hyun.
-What?

Someone called in with a tip

about the missing weed dealer.

Someone asked the police to investigate

Kwang-chul's gang,
saying they looked suspicious.

So they dispatched a patrol car.

Stop that patrol car.

All right.

What's the matter?

Sorry to bother you,
but someone called in with a tip.

They're saying this house is tied
with the missing person's case.

How so?

Hold on. Who made the tip?

No idea. The operator received it.

Forget it. Do you have a warrant?

Let us look around for a bit.
It's just a formality.

-Can you come in without a warrant?
-Please cooperate.

Why would they need a warrant?

Tell them they can come in.

You don't have any furniture.

We moved in yesterday,
so nothing is set up yet.

I see. And what do you do for a living?

What?

Oh, I invest in stocks.

What's the reason for your visit again?

Someone called in with a tip

that the missing person was in this house.

-Feel free to look around.
-Okay.

I just received a call from the cleaner.
He said it was him.

He left all the money and took off,
so I told him to bring us the money.

Hey, take a look at the laptop.

Rewind the footage. Did we get it?

-Who called in with the tip?
-It was anonymous.

Contact the police control room.

Do you work night shifts too?
You seem to go out at night often.

No, not really.
I just go on a lot of walks at night.

Yes.

All right.

-Hello, sir.
-Hey.

Hello.

Jeez.

-Sis, take the kid and wait outside.
-What?

All right.

Come on.

Let's go.

Let's talk business, Yong-soo.

Kwang-chul killed some random guy
while looking for the money.

The police stopped by his place.

What did you just say?

If shit hits the fan for Kwang-chul,
it'll get all over you, too.

Let's cut him out.

I mean, we're family,

but Kwang-chul has nothing
to do with our family.

We went through a lot together,
like brothers.

He's like a brother.
He's not your actual fucking brother.

You're the head of the household.
What about my nephew and my sister?

Take some responsibility.

The head of the household
needs to protect his family.

Yes, I found it.

Call the precinct and get them
to share what they have on the weed guy.

Welcome.

Can I get a pack of Marlboro Reds
and some nicotine gum?

-Does the security camera outside work?
-Yes.

Can I take a look at the footage?

I need to see footage
from 12 seconds past 1:23 p.m.

I'm sorry, but we're not allowed
to show this to anyone. We...

POLICE
KANG JOO-HYUN

Stop.

Keep it rolling for a bit more.

Stop.

Can you run a license plate for me?

95 MO...

0809.

It's black,

and it doesn't look like it's a new model.

This is a 2001 SM5.

Someone I know bought the same model,

but it started leaking oil.
It was a total mess...

It's a 2001 SM5.

Save it.

What?

Yeah.

They won't cooperate
without giving us a reason why.

They said it was an order
from the higher-ups.

Oh yeah.

The chief said to wrap things up here.
What's going on?

Get your head straight, man.

"We lost someone
in an illegal investigation."

"Help us with a warrant, your Honor."
Is that what you'll say?

If any of this gets out,

you think we'll just lose our badges?

Get rid of anything that has to do
with the undercover operation.

It never happened.

Do you understand?

Isn't the layout great?
The view is so nice.

Yes, you're right.

Are you interested in buying?

We can offer a rental contract,
but there's also the option to buy.

No, I'm fine with just renting.

I see.

All right, then.

Is there a large hospital in the area?

Yes, just ten minutes away by car.

There's even a shopping mall.
And the school district is great too.

-I see.
-Would you like to see the master bedroom?

No, I'm okay. This is great.

Sorry? You didn't even look around.

I'm sort of in a rush.

I'd like to move in
as soon as possible. Tomorrow, even.

Ta-da! We lit the candles!

All together, guys!

Have some of this.

Seriously!

Oh, no! Hyun-woo!
You rubbed it all over me.

Hyun-woo.

Hyun-woo, say "Daddy, I love you."

I love you.

How much?

DO NOT CROSS - POLICE LINE

What is it?

Did you find anything?

I just got in, dumbass.

I found something interesting.

What is it?

The license plate number you asked about.

Guess who called in to give us that tip?

Who?

It's the guy that lives right next
to the house you're currently staying in.

His name is Park Dong-ha.

He's a university professor
with a clean record.

He's never even gotten a traffic ticket.
He's a perfect law-abiding citizen.

But do you know what's interesting?

Just say it already.

These bastards have been running
a background check on this professor.

You know that pile of mail
next to that laptop earlier?

It was the professor's.

But how did they know that

it was the professor who reported them?

Or were they already looking into him
before the tip-off?

How could they have known?

He doesn't look like
that type of guy at all.

Maybe they were just running
background checks on all the residents.

But they only took the professor's mail.

Hello? Joo-hyun?

Are you listening? Hello?

He might be a witness...

to a murder or something.

Murder? No way.

He's on the wanted list. He probably fled
after his grow-op got busted.

I mean, not too long ago,
one of his buyers got caught too.

We might need to do a search instead.

Come on. Cops aren't that sloppy.

The guys here don't know Kwang-chul,
or who he actually is.

Either way, what are you going to do
about the chief's orders?

I'll go ask him
what the hell he's messing with us for.

It looks like...

Kwang-chul's on the move.
Should I follow him?

What the...

Shit! Wait!

He's headed that way! Damn it.

Fuck.

You think it's the cops?

Or maybe it's one of the delivery guys?

What about this guy?

He hasn't come home yet.

-Let's go.
-Yes, sir.

Damn...

You scared the crap out of me.

Why did you have to hit me?

Jeez.

Fuck. We lost them.

Where the hell is he going?

Don't worry. He didn't take off for good.

They're still looking for something.

Is it money?

Who knows?

They wouldn't be here if they found it.

They need to find the head cartel's money.

And that goes for us too.
Because that money

is our ticket to the head cartel.

If everything that's happened
until now was because of money,

how did the money end up here
in this neighborhood?

I can't figure that out.

There must be a reason
why the money ended up here.

But because that money ended up here,

it looks like this man
unwillingly got involved.

DAD

-Hey, Dad.
-Hyun-woo.

-Did you get back from school?
-What?

Hyun-woo, how long has it been
since we've lived in our neighborhood?

Aren't you getting
kind of tired of living there?

-Are we moving?
-No, just asking.

What about Mom?

She's home.

Dad, are you not coming home today?

Why wouldn't I be?
I'm on my way right now.

Hey, do you remember
how you fainted the other day

and those guys from across the street,
the ones that helped you...

Can you look out your window
and see if they're home?

Just a second.

Their lights are on.

Oh yeah?

Dad, when are you coming home?

Hello.

-Are you just getting off work?
-Yes.

Wait a second.

Is there something going on?

No.

Not yet.

Something's about to happen now.

They were both already dead.

I'm telling the truth.
The car was covered in blood.

I didn't want anyone to see,
so I came home

and just buried them in my backyard.

The money... The money is in my garage.

But, when I went to go get it laundered

I lost maybe a quarter of it.
No, maybe even a third of it?

I promise I'll pay it all back!

My gosh!

I'll really pay all of it back!

The money's not the problem, dumbass.

You know too much.

-I haven't said a word.
-Get up, man.

-It's the truth.
-But you called the cops?

Please!

For fuck's sake.

Shit.

Mr. Professor,

you get to stay neighbors
with the weed man even in the afterlife.

We're doing this shit again. Fuck.

Jeez.

Breaking our backs,
all because of this bastard.

Damn it.

You should leave with the money.

I'll make sure they finish the job
before I head down.

What is this?

-Jung-bae.
-Yes, sir.

Dig him out.

Sorry?

I said, take him out.

From now on, you are going to pay us back.

How?

Just do whatever we tell you to do.

You're a part of the family now.

Go.

Go and wait for us to contact you.

A lot of people get involved
because they need money or drugs.

They're all desperate.

But they always cause trouble.

Running off with cash or dope.

Those people were only desperate
for their own lives.

BUSAN STATION

Do you know what kind of people
are more desperate than them?

People who need to feed their families.

Breadwinners.

But he has something else on top of that.

He's a breadwinner
that needs to save his sick child.

No one could be more desperate.

A double-cross?

He could never.

Are you here for the delivery?

On top of that,
as far as the cops can tell,

he's a law-abiding citizen.

The new face in town.

The best mule we could ask for.

IN LOVING MEMORY OF NAM MUN-CHEOL

Someone needs to stop Clearway Law.
Public shouldn't leave reviews for lawyers.
