Chosen (2017–2018): Season 2, Episode 2 - Episode #2.2 - full transcript

My name is Zhang Lei.

I was drawn into a killing game
three days ago.

I have to kill my target in 24 hours.

If I failed,

my family's lives will be in danger.

Someone delivered something to you.

The Cobra is not easy to deal with.

You guys will be in great danger
if you go.

I can't let anything happen
to my wife and kid.

Mom!

Help!



Dad, help!

Dad!

Forget about us!

K. K.

What is going on?
The Cobras are here again?

No.

Igor is dead.

Wow, Lei is fantastic!

He killed Igor!

No.

Igor died in an explosion.

Who did it?

I think it was the people
who are manipulating this game.

Lei and I went to negotiate
with Igor yesterday.



That guy has no integrity.

If it wasn't for Oleg,
we would have died there.

Now Tong Tong was taken,
Lei's wife has also been injured.

Jing.

Maybe we should walk away from this.

Are you helping, or not?

It's not like I don't want to help you,
but look who those people are!

The messages on Lei's phone
are all encrypted.

I've been looking into this for a few days
and I got nothing.

The only thing that I'm sure of

is that Lei was not the only person
who was dragged into this.

The other participants,
the way they kill...

is either disguised as suicide
or as missing.

That's not something an ordinary can do.

Too dangerous for us.

If we don't help him, who is going to?

Have you thought that maybe one day
we'll get dragged into the game as well?

There is a way.

I need a hand.

I know you've got this.

If that's the case, I'll go back
to the hospital to check on Lei's wife.

Contact me
as long as you know something.

I'm leaving now.

Do tell me!

I need more time.

All right. Do your job.

Don't forget to let me know.

All right.

Lei.

K found that the messages you received
were all encrypted

and the traces were hidden.

It'd be tough to find the location.

But, Lei, don't you worry.
K is awesome at what he does.

He'll find a way.

You should eat something.

Sorry for dragging you all into this.

No, now you're just talking
like we aren't family to you.

We'll definitely get Tong Tong out.

Last night, at the Grenive factory
in the suburb,

gunfire resulted in many casualties
for the Cobra.

Head of the Cobra, Igor, and his wife
Anna were killed in the incident.

According to police, the incident
was caused by internal gang fighting.

What did they say?

They said it was a gang's internal fight.

They sure know how to spin their story.

Who exactly is behind this?

Excuse me, Mr. Zhang.

Someone asked me to give it to you.

What?

Who gave this to you?

Just left.

Stop!

I told you he has a lot of potential.

He could be our top seed this season.

But he doesn't seem as obedient
as we imagined.

Don't worry.

All the disciplined
are closely bound together.

When he sees
his loved ones are threatened,

his worthless morals and bottom lines
will easily be defeated.

You'll see how a human
can become a monster

when they are in crisis.

There's no better man
to take care of Boris

than him.

Where is my daughter!

Tell me, where is she!

Follow the rules, play the fucking game!

Who are you guys?

What do you want?

I just want my daughter back.

I'm done. I'm done!

As soon as you received the box,

you lost all chance to escape.

Now kill the target,

and your daughter
will be safe and sound.

Wait. Wait!

This dropped from that person just now.

Take this.

These bastards.

They're relentless.

Let K find out who this person is.

Okay.

Lei, I know.

I can do anything for Tong Tong.

But if I have to kill someone...

We need to find out
who's behind this game.

so we can figure out what this is all about.

Okay. Got it.

Let's go.

Why such a hurry?

Judy, you came just in time.

Help me and take a look at this.

What?

You asked me to come just for this?

Yes.

You don't have to leave in such a hurry.
Come and sit.

Sit.

This is the killing game
that I mentioned before.

The manipulators of the game
all wear this badge.

I really can't find anything about that.

Please help me just one more time.

You're still so brainless.

What do you mean?

Such a huge system,

it's impossible for it to surveil
every participant's movements.

Then what should we do?

Research it in another way.

Another way?

Hey, Judy!

-Hey, hi, Judy. How are you doing?
-Hello, I am on the line.

What's up, guys.
This is my hacker friend K.

Hi, how are you doing!

We need your help.

Sure. Why not?

Okay, happy for help.

Boss, I'm sorry.

Really? I really don't want to hear it.

Where is Natasha?

I won't fail again.

Liliya, you are one of my best helpers,

but you can't even look after a child.

It seems that she was informed
in advance about our mission.

Liliya...

don't be overconfident.

If you can't do it,

I will do that.

Shut up, Nicolai!

I believe Liliya
is the best person for this job.

Get out.

Go.

You found Boris?

I'm working on it now.

Never leak anything of the game.

Yes.

I'm fixing it now.

Be careful.
He's the founder of the system.

He knows all the secrets.

Yeah, don't worry.

I'll get somebody working on it
as soon as possible.

And the system won't become a mess.
It's okay.

You know the importance.

Yes. Yes.

So do you mean
there is a mysterious organization

that can send messages
to all the players

without leaving any traces,

and it can control
the places of all the players in real time?

It sounds so bizarre.

Well, it's not absurd.

Technically, it can be done by the IP
surveillance system in the domain.

It sounds much pretty
like MR technology.

It can create a new visual environment

that contains both physical objects
and virtual information.

More importantly it goes live.

Did you know anything
about this game before?

Not really.

I think it's gonna be too hard
for us to get any information,

because they prepared well,
they prepared everything.

So all their system-related information
is encrypted.

If you want,
we'll go split up our job,

and see what we can find.

We'll let you know
if we can get something.

Okay, guys, we'll look up, okay?

Well, guys, I'll meet you next time.

Catch you later.

Judy, how about a date tonight?

See you!

All right, catch you later.

All right. Thank you so much!

Seems like this is a pretty tough problem.

Problem?

Well, this.

I like it.

Drink!

Drink.

The problem will solve itself
after downing a whole bottle.

You haven't changed a bit.

Neither have you.

Thank you, Judy.

I'll bring you something stronger
next time.

I'm leaving.

-Hey.
-K, what's up?

Still investigating.

-Lei and I are coming to you now.
-All right.

Have you found her?

Natasha's facial recognition

is being disturbed constantly
by an external network.

Keep looking.

I need her location in 6 hours.

How's it going?
Have you found anything?

Weird, there are few traces
of this person online.

I almost can't get
any information about them.

Almost...

But there is something?

I found a little clue.

I hacked the police department's network
and found a picture.

Lei, we found a picture.

Lei, take a look.

I mean...

You can hack into the police department,

but you can't find the location
of the message's origin?

The game's coding isn't ordinary,
there are layers upon layers of security.

The location changed,
so it's hard to hack.

The designer of this game
is not an ordinary person.

Then what else have we found
besides this picture?

Just this picture.

Everything else was deleted.

The person who did this
is very meticulous.

I hacked into the traffic network,
this driver's license is still being used.

Who is using it?

-The person in the picture?
-No.

It's a girl.

A girl?

Her name is Natasha.

She looks nothing like the picture.

Can you find out where she is?

I can try.

We found her!

Where is she?

At a small inn in the suburb.

She's the girl!

Stop!

We need your help!

Watch out!

-Lei, I'll go see if there's another exit.
-Okay.

Excuse me.

What do you need?

What's your problem?

Wait!

Wait!

Wait. I'm not going to hurt you.

You can't come in.

You won't, but she will.

Sir, you okay?

Sorry, I don't understand.

No. You need to compensate us
for our loss.

Run!

Who are you?
Why are you trying to kill her?

Fuck off and stay out of my way!

Lei!

Go.

Go, go!

Go.

You helped me.

Now I do the same. We are even.

Lei, this girl values her friends.

She's really honorable.

Hey.

You are prettier in person
than your photo.

Photo?

Hey, listen,
we don't want to get you in trouble.

It's just, there's something...
we need your help.

I can't help you.

Hey. How do you know you can't help?

Listen, Lei's daughter was kidnapped.

We must get her out.

Your daughter?

Hi, all of you.

Hi, K. How's it going?

Not bad. How are you guys?

Any update?

I checked with some friends in Russia
who do MR technology.

A year ago, someone connected
with them, with big money,

to have them scan
the entirety of Moscow.

But they don't know what it was for.

Who are the people that looked for them?

It was anonymously,

and they've never appeared
after paying the money.

We all know that,

with such advanced
surveillance technology,

no one can just disappear.

I can say that this guy's a freaking pro.

I investigated the phone number he left
and found that it was a net phone.

The e-mail address
also lead to a virtual address.

So they encrypted all their materials
and we couldn't find any IP addresses.

That pretty much means
there's no hope of finding this person.

Come on, no program is unbreakable.

You're the best among all of us here.

All right. I understand.

Thank you, all of you.
I need to figure this out myself, bye.

What? The game is just for killing?

And all related to the box.

You should have
gotten one already, right?

No, I didn't.

But why do so many people hunt me?

Yeah...

The girl back there,
she's really like a professional killer.

Why were you two looking for me?

We got another box.

Am I the target?

No, you are not.

However, the car you're driving
has that person's license plate.

Can I see it?

Can I see it?

Do you know him?

No. No, I don't.

No.

But the license...

I'm not aware of its owner.
I got it from someone else.

I'm sorry. I can't help you.

Hello.

Okay.

Go to Shedonov Hospital.

Please.

Hui Xin.

We have to do the operation now.

-How is she? Is she all right?
-Please go outside.

I just want to see her.

What happened to his wife?

Let's pray.

Is it the box?

It's none of your business.

When did he receive this box?

This morning.

There's only more than 10 hours left.

What can we do?

We have to find him.

Lei, have some water.

Doctor, how is she?

We did everything we could to save her.

I'm so sorry.

Hui Xin.

Can you hear me, Hui Xin?

Did you know...?

Did you know, ever since
you took Tong Tong and left me,

I really hoped that you'd come back to me
every day?

Now I've quit drinking...

and I found a new job...

because I want
to make up for my mistake.

I want you two to have a good life.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Hui Xin.

Hui Xin.

Don't worry.

I'll save our daughter.

I'll save our daughter, I promise.

We still have to watch her grow up.

We will never be apart as a family.

Hui Xin.

Hui Xin!

Hui Xin!

Hey.

K. Lei's wife is gone.

Is Lei all right?

This is too devastating for him.

I'm afraid that he'll have a breakdown.

Have you told Oleg?

No, not yet.

Oleg is not doing so good himself, either.

K, have you found anything?

Tong Tong is Lei's only hope now.

We have to save her.

Don't worry.

I've contacted my friends.

They sent me a lot of useful information.

Well, I compared the girl who was driving
to the picture of Lei's target.

I found something.

I'm sending it to you now.

What is this about, Nicolai?

Sir, Liliya failed.

If you sent me,
this would've already been taken care of.

I make the rules.
Nobody speaks otherwise.

Yes, sir. But...

it seems Natasha has a helper.

When her helper finds out
that his target is her father,

he'll no longer be a helper,
but he'll turn into her grim reaper.

This Chinese guy seems reluctant
to follow the rules of the game.

Witnessing people
breaking their own bottom line,

isn't that the best part of the game?

Well said, sir.

I'm really sorry about your wife.

Can you help me?

I don't know how I can help you now.

Who is he?

Honestly, I don't know.

I know who he is.

You'd better explain.

Who are you?

The person they want you to kill...

is my dad.

Your dad?

I want to protect him,

just like you
want to protect your daughter and wife.

Okay.

Take me to him.

I just want to save my daughter.

I won't do anything to him.

This is where my parents and I lived.

Someone's been here before.

No one's lived here after the accident.

What's this?

I-- I don't know.

What do you mean you don't know?

This is what I got
from the man delivered the box.

Don't lie. Tell me what it is.

It can't be my dad!

He has nothing to do with them.

But these two patterns are the same.

You tell me the truth.

You tell me. Just tell me!

I don't know.

I know you can see me.

Tell me! Tell me, who are you?

I just want my daughter back!

You hear me?

Given a shitty day,
anybody can become a maniac.

Selfishness is my favorite kind of sin.

You see that?

This is human nature.

I told you that Chinese guy
would become a serious competitor.

How much longer
can you stay invisible, Boris?

You are creating a whole new world.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Hello.

I'm Boris.

The man from the picture is me.

Boris.

Papa.

Boris.

You just listen.

I don't want to hurt you.

I just want to know the truth.

I want to know what's going on.

I want my daughter back.

Sir, we've got Boris' phone's location.

Go and get him!

Yes, sir!

Go! Now!

Let go of my daughter,

and I will give you the answers
and everything you want.

You can meet me
at Holy Paradise Church.

Hello? Hello?

You go that way.

Okay.

Who will drive?

Let's go to the cathedral.

No!

Trust me.

Trust you?

You've done nothing but lie to us.

Please believe me.

If my dad is the one setting you up,
then why is he your target?

And if he knew someone
is monitoring our conversation,

he would never just give us
an address like that!

He's been using a secret system
to contact me this whole time.

Despite our efforts, he still got away.

What do we do?

Of course he did.

Get more men, get over to the church.

Yes, sir.

-I'll stay here and keep an eye out for us.
-All right.

Let's go.

Natasha.

I told you to leave.

Why didn't you listen to me!

I didn't stay to find you,
I just want to know how mom died.

It's all my fault. She died because of me.

I told you to leave
so you wouldn't get involved.

Hey.

What you gotta do? What's this game?

I know you, Zhang Lei.

I have been watching you.

Where is my daughter?

I can help you find your daughter,

but you have to help me too--

Papa!

Come on, help him!

What happened?

Natasha.

You might already know that
those messages are from me, right?

Sorry I can't protect you anymore.

-Papa, where did you get hurt?
-No, it won't help.

This is my punishment...

for creating this game.

Listen to me,

what I'm about to say now,

it's more important than my life.

You want to save your daughter,

then you need to destroy
this whole network.

I created this.

I understand this.

You've seen that insignia.

I designed it,

it is the game's totem.

After Alexander made it out,

then he decided to kill me.

I hoped to run away with your mother.

But... but they set up a car accident,

and took her life.

And then...

Hang in there, Papa.

Help me.

It's useless, my child.

I wanted to destroy this game,

but I couldn't.

I was watching you
when you were going to enter.

I know...

you... you are brave,

and talented,

and you are a man with principles.

You need to...

you must destroy this game, man!

And... destroy this whole network.

Take it.

It's a malware I designed
to destroy the game's system.

Didn't see Boris anywhere.

They didn't find Boris anywhere.

Shit.

You got fooled.

Check all the cameras and find him.

Damn it!

Papa, don't give up!

It's useless.

No more innocent people dying.

You must end this game.

I'll be fine. I'll be with your mom again.

We will be there
watching you live happily ever after.

Zhang Lei.

Don't worry. Take it.

These are just blanks,
you won't have to break your principles.

Just follow the steps I just told you,

and do what I couldn't.

Papa.

Take care of yourself.

Sir, there he is.

Should I send more men?

I've completed my mission!

Where is my daughter?

I want my daughter back!
