Cain and Abel (2009): Season 1, Episode 5 - Episode #1.5 - full transcript

-Hello?
-Mr. Lee Sun-woo?

We're calling from
Hanguk Hospital.

We have your CT
and MRI results.

EPISODE 5

There's a tumor in the same
prefrontal area as seven years ago.

As you may be aware,

most recurrences are malignant.

Please come by
as soon as possible.

Boss.

I read my fortune for today.

And this is what I got.



CHINA HAS LOST.
THE DRAGON SHALL LEAVE.

You traitor!

Put your gun down!

Now!

Run!

You traitorous dog.

You've got nowhere to run.

How dare you set me up!

Get them!

Over there.

We should split up.

Stay safe, Kang-ho.

Hey.

Kang-ho!



Kang-ho!

MISSING PERSON
LEE CHO-IN

MISSING PERSON
LEE CHO-IN

Comrade Oh.

Didn't you hear me?

What were you doing in a trance?

Oh, Kang-chul, you traitor,
I finally got you.

Police!

Drop your weapons!

We're Security Officers from North Korea.

A warrant was issued...

by your own government.

We'll take them.

No, we'll take them.

They fled our country!

We have permission from your authorities.

No, not when it's a drug deal.

We'll take them. Take them!

I'm going back to Korea.

Your heart ultrasound didn't look good.

Take your meds on time.

I have spoken to the Foreign
Ministry about Cho-in.

Tired of it already?

It's only been two months.

You want to hand it
over to someone else?

I have to check on something
and I'll be back.

Is the hospital that important to you?

We don't even know
if Cho-in is alive...

Don't you think this is more
important than your hospital?

My matter is as important
as finding Cho-in.

My life....

What's left of my life...

depends on it.

I was delusional for a while.

I've forgotten how selfish
you are, you stupid egoist.

Goodbye.

Oh, mister...

The issue regarding the transfer
of ownership by the Director

has to be taken care of quickly
behind Sun-woo's back.

He's already got his hands full
with the Neurosurgery Center.

Once Cho-in's death becomes official,

the rights of ownership
goes back to the Director.

Then you and Sun-woo
can make the decisions

on behalf of the Director.

I'll give a call to China
and wrap everything up.

What about Kim Hyun-ju?

Has she been summoned to
the ethics committee?

Yes, she's currently under investigation.

A few missing materia medica
will be enough to expel her?

I threw in a few antipsychotics

as also missing.

Theft?

Please watch your words.

I am the Chief of ER.

I wouldn't steal a few drugs.

Oh?

Explain this.

At 11:20 pm on November 10th,

you signed off on some medications.

November 10th?

The 10th?

Taking all those meds to pay
for your flight to China?

Come on, I didn't take that many.

Take some more antitussive and betadine.

Really?

We clearly see your signature right here.

These drugs were not used in the ER.

What happened?

Quite a bit of morphine and
Demerol is missing, too.

What?

I only did....

Dr. Kim, are these the facts?

Yes.

They are.

I see.

The ethics committee will notify you.

You may go.

Why didn't you tell them the truth...

that it was for Cho-in's
volunteer mission in China?

Oh, well, they had the facts.

Come on... not likely!

You didn't want to sell out Cho-in.

But how long will you take this?

Dr. Kim, let's play our trump card.

The one from the Director's
private attorney.

I guess we should.

Here's a cardiogram of
an emergency patient.

Say it's a ventricular fibrillation.

What would you do, Su-rak?

Well...

I'd inject epinephrine.

And I'd keep massaging the heart.

If there's no improvement in the results,
I'd inject more--

-Next.
-Yes?

What would you do?

Well...

I'd do the same as Su-rak.

Is this a joke?

This is a typical torsades de pointes!

No one here knows what to do?

Magnesium should be injected
in five percent dextrose water.

Dr. Nam is the only one?

We got the go-ahead for the
Neurosurgery Center two months ago.

And Dr. Nam is the only one...

trained to do advanced
cardiovascular life support?

And you want to be members of
the staff at my medical center?

Just forget it.

NEUROSURGERY

Dr. Lee.

Dr. Kang Seok-hoon.

I just returned from the States.

So, you're finally here.

This hospital can use some help.

I feel the adrenaline rush.

Yes, there's a lot you
can do in my place.

Mister!

Stop smoking those damn things.

We can't breathe in here!

Think about the rest of us.

But it's such a long boring
trip for the last three days.

And those people told us
it's supposed to be a short ride.

Man, the stench!

I told you not to go
on the floor and to tell us!

Who has to use the john?

You!

You first.

Okay.

What happened to the other
girl who went to the restroom?

I paid for everything,
so what do you want?

Isn't it obvious?

Your body.

We're almost in South Korea,
don't you want to go there?

Don't come near me.

If you do...

What are you going to do?

You're going to beat me?

Stay away!

Or I'll jump!

Fine.

Jump.

It's your life.

Stay away, I'll jump.

Bring the gaff!

Where are they taking us?

Probably to the military prison.

I heard North Korean
refugees are taken there

before they're sent back to North Korea.

Comrade Oh.

This scar...

Have I always had it?

Was it there when you saved me?

Yes.

The man in the picture...

The smiling man...

Does he have a scar like this, too?

Was that me?

Or someone who just looks like me?

Afraid of what you might remember?

Is that why you didn't say
you weren't North Korean?

I don't know...

who I am...

or what I'm supposed to do.

I have no clue.

Get out!

Hurry up!

Out!

Get out!

Keep walking!

Stand up straight!

You have to be disinfected!

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Stop!

Stop it, you jerks!

IDENTITY INFORMATION
OH KANG-CHUL

North Korean Security Forces?

Yes.

How interesting...

Can you handle it?

Comrade.

Comrade Oh.

Thanks to all that water...

the wound must be clean now.

Comrade.

Comrade Oh!

Help!

Is anyone there?

Is anyone there?

Hey.

Someone's dying.

Someone's dying.

Hey, you jerks!

Forget it.

They don't consider us human.

This fellow has the look
of a security officer.

Yes, he is...

Then he's as good as dead.

A North Korean security officer
tried to escape last year.

The warden here nearly lost his job.

Since then, not a single
soldier has made it out alive.

He'll be pitted against the
strongest guard tomorrow.

And he's not going to stay alive.

Have you made your decision?

Yes.

The Leksell Stereotactic System.

And do an awake surgery.

But then you will
have incredible pain.

I don't have much time.

I want to see my brain
with my own eyes.

Jung-min.

Look how the mighty have fallen.

You're all skin and bone.

What brings you here?

I made up an excuse to come see you.

No news from Cho-in?

Not yet.

It's been two and a half months.

If he was kidnapped or in an accident,

you would've heard by now.

Where's Sun-woo?

You aren't looking for Cho-in together?

He went back to Korea.

And aren't you going back?

Jung-min.

I know that this must be hard for you.

But being emotional isn't
going to resolve anything.

No, I can find him. I will find him.

How long will you be looking for?

As long as you had
looked for Sun-woo?

Kim Seo-yeon.

You made it through
Sun-woo's disappearance.

-Lee Jung-min--
-Hear me out!

Yes, I made it...

because of Cho-in.

Then Cho-in must have a reason
why he can't come back.

Just like Sun-woo did.

Like Sun-woo did?

What do you mean?

He didn't say anything to you?

Well, it'd be something if
that man ever opened up.

I'm telling you this now.

Sun-woo was sick.

What?

When you had a heart
transplant seven years ago,

it's not that Sun-woo
didn't come back.

He couldn't.

He was seriously ill.

Do you have the coordinates?

Yes.

143, 64, 99, for X, Y, Z, respectively.

We rounded up.

Can we begin?

Yes.

We'll apply the local anesthesia...

Lidocaine.

Scalpel.

Drill.

The needle is going in.

He's fast.

He must be the best runner at
an upcoming hospital track meet.

Well, the crap has hit the fan.

It better work out this time.

First things, first.

Then we'll look for Lee Cho-in
and help the Director recover.

It's all we can do for now.

Where could he be?

We have a situation.

What's with the big fuss?

An emergency board meeting
has been requested.

An emergency board meeting?

REQUEST FOR BOARD MEETING

To disband the construction project
of the Neurosurgery Center.

And who requested this meeting?

Dr. Kim Jin-geun
from the Anesthesiology.

So Kim Hyun-ju must
have put him up to it.

She's grasping at straws,
so why bother?

You don't understand, Mr. Oh.

Hyun-ju knows that the ownership
of new center belongs to Cho-in.

We were privy to that info,
but how does she know?

How did it get out!

The attorney visited the Director
before he came to us.

They must have met there.

I know only because
Jo Hyun-taig told me.

Mr. Oh.

Don't worry, we'll hear from China soon.

Boss, you want us to find
Lee Cho-in's corpse?

It's already been a few months.

We won't have to look very far.

Boss, you asked for me?

Wasn't that Lee Cho-in's ring?

No, it's mine.

This is for the ring.

Young-ji, you're awake.

Is that you, Jin-ho?

Seo Jin-ho from school?

Yes.

Where are we?

Are we back in China?

No, we're in Seoul,
in South Korea.

Seoul?

SHARE YOUR HOPES
AND PAIN WITH US

You're awake, Ms. Oh Young-ji.

They're government officials.

Welcome to the Republic of Korea.

Could you come with us for a debriefing?

Mom, Dad, Kang-chul, I'm in Korea.

I got here first, so join me soon.

Please.

Old timer, what happened to my friend?

You were knocked out.

He's fighting in your place.

Fighting?

When a North Korean
soldier comes here,

the warden pits him against
the strongest guard here.

You friend took up the
challenge instead of you.

If he wins, you're going to
receive medical treatment.

From the ruckus, it seems
that he's not dead yet.

Oh, Kang-ho!

Stop the fight!

He's not a soldier!

I'm the North Korean soldier!

You're next!

Continue.

Comrade, stop.

Stop!

I wanted to do this...

I wanted to do it!

I'll fight!

So leave my comrade alone!

Comrade...

I can't just keep
letting you help me.

I'll finish this fight...

Kang-ho, remember this.

You save lives, so you know
the critical point in the body.

Hit him where you
aren't supposed to.

Otherwise, you can't beat him.

Kang-ho...

Oh, Kang-ho!

Beat them up and confine them.

Kang-ho. Kang-ho.

Don't touch my brother...

We have the biopsy results.

It's a stellate cell
like seven years ago.

What grade?

Grade 3 by WHO standards.

So it's not at grade 4 yet?

No.

The tumor is in your
left prefrontal area.

Edema is in the precentral gyrus.

So surgery could mean...

that I'd no longer
have a normal life.

The tumor's growing quickly.

Do you want surgery or radiation--

Could you...

give me some time?

KIM SEO-YEON

Hi.

I think we can find Cho-in.

I found out where he is.

Brother...

Kang-chul...

Good job.

Cho-in's body has been discarded.

It'll become official in three days.

Have a board meeting,
and the game is over.

Hi, Sun-woo.

Mom, I think we found Cho-in.

What?

We found out where he is.

I'm on my way there.

I'll call you when I get back.

What's all this about
Cho-in being alive?

Pardon?

Sun-woo is on his way
to meet Cho-in.

Lee Cho-in is alive!

How did you find out?

Someone tipped off Ms. Kim Seo-yeon.

We haven't heard from the authorities yet.

And where is Ms. Kim?

She's waiting over there.

Seo-yeon, I don't have much time.

We're leaving in ten minutes.

I have to tell you something.

Will you hear me out?

If it's about seven years ago,
you don't have to say anything.

Jung-min told me.

Are you better now?

Yes, I'm all better.

Good, as long as you're better.

What a relief, I was so worried.

If I had come back then...

and I had told you...

Sun-woo, let's not reopen old wounds.

Let's go find Cho-in together.

That'll fix everything.

Yes, if we just find Cho-in...

That will fix... things.

Hi, Mom.

Where are you?
Did you find Cho-in?

We're on our way,
I'll call you...

Wait! Listen to me.

Listen to me first.

You must not find Cho-in!

What do you mean?

The ownership of Neurosurgery
Center transferred to Cho-in.

What?

Lee Jong-min, your father, has
given the rights to Cho-in.

You must not find Cho-in.

If he comes back,
everything will be lost.

Where are you?

I'll send you the fax
so you can see it.

Then decide whether you
want to find him or not.

I see.

REGISTRATION OF
OWNERSHIP TRANSFER

I, Lee Jong-min, hereby
bequeath all the rights

of any additional medical center

to my son, Lee Cho-in.

Tell me you are not
there, Lee Cho-in.

Tell me you aren't.

I might have to kill you.

Are you okay, Sun-woo?

So, this is everyone?

Is this everyone?

Yes.

That can't be right.

I was told he was here.

They told me he was here.

Ms. Kim.

No.

Don't say he's not here.

He's here somewhere.

Here.

Take a good look at this.

Look.

This is Lee Cho-in.

You've seen him, haven't you?

Take a look.

This is Lee Cho-in.

Have you seen him?

Have you seen him?

I have more photos of him.

Say something!

I know that Cho-in is here!

I'll look for him, so calm down.

But if he's not here,
where could he be?

What if we never find him?

Please find him for me, Sun-woo.

You can do it because you
went away once like him, right?

Why do you guys do this to me?

Please stop!

Seo-yeon.

Seo-yeon!

Kim Seo-yeon!

Where's the infirmary?

Open.

What are you doing!

THE LATE MR. LEE CHO-IN
