Glitch (2022–…): Season 1, Episode 9 - Episode #1.9 - full transcript
Captain Price.
Really, thank you so much for everything.
What?
Could you please tell everyone
I said that, too?
- Wait, you...
- [car door closes]
Petite! Petite, where are you going?
[ringing tone]
[adult Jihyo] That day,
everything changed.
My whole life changed.
I've been ignoring that fact
my entire life.
Now it's time I see them...
with my own two eyes.
UFOs.
Aliens.
'76 SEOUL UFO INCIDENT
GRAY REPRODUCTION
Just once, I just wish that maybe I could
see one myself and fulfill my curiosity.
[adult Jihyo] I need to find out
about the chip that was inside my head,
and why these things keep happening to me.
What do they want from me?
[gasps]
[phone vibrating]
CAP
Where are you?
Who in the hell cares?
Where are you? Tell me!
[adult Jihyo] I can't hesitate anymore.
If I don't do this now,
I might not get another chance.
A chance to make things right.
A chance to live a good life.
- [sighs]
- I'm sorry, Bora...
[birdsong]
Starting from the main entrance,
the security will be tight.
Don't worry, though, I'll come up
with a plan to get us both past it.
Father has his own separate building
in the compound.
The gospel will probably
be in there to keep it safe.
If we're quiet, I think I can sneak in
while Father is delivering his speech...
Wait a minute. "Gospel" meaning what?
That... uh...
Wait, you mean the alien implant, right?
Yes.
- Your Holiness.
- [sighs]
No matter what happens to us,
I will make sure to protect you.
- I'd risk my life for you.
- Thanks, but I doubt that would help much.
If they catch us,
they'll kill us immediately. Both of us.
Your Father, or, I mean,
whatever that scum is,
is more than capable of doing that.
Seriously, remember
the kind of men he sent?
So cut the nonsense
and just focus on driving, okay?
I'll come up with some sort of a plan.

THE MESSIAH'S MEMORIAL SERVICE
Nice to see you.
[grunts]
[groans]
Ugh!
Sister Seo. Having trouble?
Uh, no...
Of course not, Sister Back.
Everything's fine, thank you.
I'm sure you'd agree this is mild,
considering what could've
happened after what you did.
Of course, Sister Back, I know.
Then put your back into it.
As you know,
the world will soon be ending.
- Take it seriously.
- Yeah.
You're unbelievable, really. Do it right!
[laughs]
[yelps]
[shutter clicks]
What are you doing?
Shh!
SISTER SEO HWAJUNG
SERIOUSLY, CHANWOO, WHERE ARE YOU?
[Hwajung] "If you're alive,
please text me. Please."
"The preparations for the memorial service
are almost done."
"Hurry up and get here!
I wanna receive salvation together!"
"I'm... I'm so miserable
and lonely right now."
"On this wonderful day of all days..."
[phone chimes]
[gasps]
Oh my!
[Direct Kim] Where are you?
Oh!
[ringing]
[phone ringing]
[ringing stops]
[chimes]
What?
What?
[Direct Kim] My battery is low,
so it'll be hard to call.
- My apologies, Sister Seo.
- Uh...
[Hwajung] Chanwoo,
why was your phone off?
Are you okay?
What happened that day
after you left with her Holiness?
Honestly, I'm so confused right now.
[Direct Kim] It's difficult
to tell you through text.
Where are you right now, Sister Seo?
[Hwajung] I told you already, I'm here
preparing for the memorial service.
What are you doing? Why aren't
you here yet? Hurry up and get here!
[Direct Kim] Sister Seo,
what is the address? I was not informed.
[phone chimes]

HOSPITAL INTERIOR VIDEOS, DIRECT
Direct Kim?
A register?
HONG JUNSIK (HONG JIHYO'S FATHER)
Detective Kim Byungjo.
Yes, yes, of course. Yes, sir. Yes.
Uh, yes. [clears throat]
Yes, I've been quite busy lately, so, yes.
Pardon?
Ms. Hong, again?
Yes, sir, Did she um, uh... mention
where she was going before she left?
Sorry?
She... Wait, who... who...
Who did she leave with?
Bieber?
Yes.
He's a stray cat I take care of.
We left to go look for him.
Ah, I see. And then what?
And, well...
We talked about our past,
then... got into a fight.
At least I think it was.
I mean, anyway, after that, well...
She abruptly left,
as if something bad happened.
Do you mind if I ask
what the fight was about?
She asked if I really tried to do it.
Do what?
Commit suicide.
She asked if I really moved out,
bought tickets, and flew out to Thailand.
Just like that, out of the blue.
[Byungjo] So, Lee Siguk came back.
Hm, Lee Siguk, really?
What?
I just met with him.
He's living at Miss Hong's place for now.
So, where has he been, then?
Was he actually kidnapped for real?
Well, I mean, we can't
rule out that possibility.
Looks like he doesn't remember
anything that happened.
[gasps] That's crazy.
Did you find anything of importance?
Oh, I might've. Uh...
Looks like it's some kind of a register.
In the folder named "Direct." Take a guess
whose names popped up in here.
Whose?
Oh, do you mean the mass suicide
case victims? The nursing home?
Yeah, it looks like
the same day as the suicides,
those people
were taken off the member register.
Do you want to know
what's really strange, though?
What?
- There's one more person on the list.
- What?
This person didn't die.
So what was the point
of crossing off their name?
[sighs]
Maybe they knew something about
the suicides they shouldn't have.
Maybe they know what happened.
- Is there a contact on there?
- I just sent it to you.
- [phone chimes]
- Mmm, I'll head out there now.
Uh... Excuse me...
Mr. Lee?
Sorry but, were you just talking
about a cult? Kidnapping?
[sighs]
It's been a long time, hasn't it?
I know...
I know just how much you've worked...
to get to this point.
[Brother Oh] Uh, Father?
[clears throat]
- I brought what you asked for.
- [Job] Great.
Put it inside.
- Nearly everyone has arrived, Father.
- Mmm.
What of the...
drugs?
- We've handed them out as they come in.
- Good.
It'll work, right?
Once they take it, um...
it only takes three minutes to work.
- And there's no pain at all.
- All right.
Um, pardon me...
[Job] What is it?
Uh, um, well, uh...
[chuckles]
Uh, well, I... [clears throat]
Is this about her Holiness?
Would you consider
maybe postponing the ceremony for now?
Her body was supposed
to be revealed today.
Fa... Father, I know
she left behind the gospel,
but everyone was expecting
to see her body, you understand.
The congregation will most likely want
some kind of proof
of her Holiness' martyrdom.
- You see? So...
- Proof, is that right?
- So maybe we...
- I guess that's necessary, huh?
Without proof then...
they'd say that this was all scam.
- Isn't that right?
- No! [chuckles]
I mean, I would never say that...
- Look, Brother Oh.
- I just... Yes?
Do you fear the congregation, Brother?
Father?
I do...
fear them.
The one we've been waiting for...
Her Holiness, herself...
Her Holiness couldn't accept...
couldn't accept her calling and ran away.
[sighs] I can't bring myself
to say what happened.
They've been waiting for so long.
I can't tell them, because, honestly...
I really am very... scared.
Uh, yes, Father.
[man] Come in, welcome!
FROM FLESH TO LIGHT!
THE MESSIAH'S MEMORIAL SERVICE
Please move quickly.
[man on PA] Welcome, everyone.
Please hurry in.
The Father's speech will begin shortly.
GET YOUR MERCH HERE
The Father's speech will start soon.
Please gather by the stage,
and find a seat.
- Stay in line so we can scan your ticket.
- [man] We need to scan the QR code.
- Yes, QR code.
- For quick entry, have your QR code ready.
Yes, please hurry in, everyone!
The Father's speech will start soon.
Hurry in. Please come in quickly.
We'll be closing the entrance soon.
Please make sure
to keep the necklace with you.
We will be closing the entrance soon!
- They already started.
- What?
[door alarm bleeps]
Hey!
Seriously?
Wait. What's that? What are you planning?
We have no time, your Holiness.
The second the speech ends,
Father is going to be calling the Light.
So we better get going and go in now.
Get in how? Those people will see us.
Look, I'm not afraid, your Holiness.
- You're gonna get yourself killed!
- You'll give me salvation, won't you?
"On that glorious day,
the Messiah will come down,
overcoming the trial of death."
..."The Messiah said to the sheep..."
- [sighs]
"'The body is a prison, with bars
of carbon. Follow me towards the Light.'"
[gasps]
"The Blessed Light will wear the flesh
of a man and will arrive among us."
FROM FLESH TO LIGHT!
THE MESSIAH'S MEMORIAL SERVICE
The Light will wear the flesh of mankind
and come down among us."
- Just wait a minute!
- "The body..."
Hold on a minute.
You believe in me, am I right?
Yes, your Holiness. Of course.
Then that means...
so do those people, right?
- What?
- I mean, those people believe in me.
Like you do. Isn't that right?
I'm sure...

[cheering and applause]
Sella!
- [woman] Sella!
- He's coming.
Father!
[Hwajung] Father!
[loud cheering]
[woman 1] Sella!
[woman 2] Sella!
Today has come.
Brothers and Sisters.
We have waited...
- We've waited for such a long time!
- [cheering]
Trust me, I know...
I know what sacrifices you all made
in preparation for this day.
I know some of you have even
abandoned your jobs.
Some of you abandoned your families too.
And some of you abandoned your honor.
I know there are even those
who gave up their own lives
because waiting was just too much
for their hearts to handle.
But finally, today...
Everyone...
The day has come nigh!
[cheering]
Although our Messiah...
although she has now moved on...
our beloved Messiah...
has left a gift!
Our magnanimous Messiah, before leaving,
has graciously left us
the last key to paradise!
[cheering]
Come quickly!
Hurry!
[Job] To this day...
[gasps]
...I remember clearly
how her Holiness appeared that day.
- [gasping]
- Her Holiness...
suffered greatly
until her very last breath,
all so she could bring
us the truth of ascension,
and grant us all salvation.
- [murmuring]
- [woman] She's here.
- To save us, she endured trials...
- Confirm it quickly.
- ...flesh...
- Someone's coming.
However, her body, her mortal coil,
was not able to endure the heavy burden...
- [crowd muttering and gasping]
- [man] What?
It's the Messiah!
She's not dead?
[loud gasping and screams]
She's alive!
The Messiah lives!
- It's her!
- Is this real?
The Messiah! She's come alive!
I can't see!
Does he know that she's alive?
[Phillip] Captain Price?
Cap!
Oh. Oh. Oh, hey.
So what... what happened, man?
So bad news, Cap...
- Your café got totally wrecked.
- Oh, I have no idea, man.
What about Moonhole?
You said she was here.
- What?
- Where'd she go?
[murmuring and gasping]
Is that really her?
[deaconess] Sister Abigail!
Abigail, who's this person?
Yes, this person...
It's true, she's the Messiah.
[gasping]
[deaconess] But, but... how?
Father said she passed away. Didn't he?
[Younggi] The truth... the truth is...
Um, um, well, I'm... resurrected.
[murmuring]
Huh?
Oh, shit...
Everyone!
I've been resurrected!
[gasps]
"And on this glorious day,
the Messiah will come down, overcoming...
overcoming the trial of death!"
"Those with eyes shall see!
They shall lift up their eyes!"
"Lift up their eyes!
Shall lift their eyes and seeeee!"
[gasps]
[gasps]
Our Messiah has come! [gasps]
Our Messiah has risen!
- Oh!
- [woman] The Messiah has risen!
[loud cheering]
Messiah!
Messiah!
She is to save us! She will save us!
I need to talk to you!
Silence!
[silence falls]
Forgive me.
What was that, your Holiness?
We need to talk, all right?
Of course.
This way, somewhere quiet.
No, not somewhere quiet.
Right here.
Here, in front of everyone.
I
I have nothing to hide!
I won't hide from my believers!
[cheering]
- Messiah!
- Messiah!
Excuse me?
- Yes?
- I have a QR...
[laughs] Oh, Sister!
The memorial service, it's been canceled.
It's a miracle!
- [laughs]
- Huh?
Her Holiness is back from the dead!
- She has been resurrected!
- Woah!
- Resurrected!
- Wait, what?
- Uh... Wait, who... who's back?
- Her Holiness. Her Holiness has risen!
She has returned to bring us salvation!
Light be with you!
[Phillip] These people, I swear.
Where do they keep disappearing to?
What the hell is she gonna do
all by herself?
- What are you doing?
- Shh!
[all scream]
How's your head, sir?
Younggi.
My daughter.
Where is she?
[Captain Price] Uh... uh...
Uh...
Well, the thing is...
SONG JAEDEOK NEUROPSYCHIATRY
[Sehee] Why bring him?
ENCYCLOPEDIA OF MENTAL DISORDERS
[Byungjo] I mean,
what was I supposed to do?
He said he wanted to come.
He was staring at me like a lost puppy.
How could you let a civilian
investigate with us?
[Byungjo] Hey, it's fine.
It doesn't matter.
You're a civilian too, remember?
[Sehee chuckles awkwardly]
[door opens]
- [man] Kim Byungjo? Please come in.
- Yes.
Which one of you is Kim Byungjo?
Detective Kim Byungjo from Geoan Station.
Doctor, you used to be a part
of the Divine Light Church, right?
This punk.
Is he causing trouble again?
[woman on PA] Attention,
Brothers and Sisters,
the memorial service has been canceled.
In a moment, the Father
will have an audience with the Messiah.
Please gather in the assembly hall.
[loud cheering]
I repeat, the memorial service
has been canceled.
In a moment, the Father
will have an audience with the Messiah.
Please gather in the assembly hall.
[man] Please take a seat.
Please take a seat, quickly.
[Sehee] You're saying...
she can communicate with aliens?
She told everyone she could.
That's why she got taken
to the welfare center.
Doctor, could you please tell us
what exactly a welfare center does?
It's just a center for the mentally ill,
and also the homeless, and drug addicts.
So, you mean Moon Hyungtae...
We were interns at the welfare center.
I mean, honestly, we worked
with many bizarre patients there.
Though the strangest...
was this woman who claimed
to be able to communicate with aliens!
A lot of doctors took interest in her
because of that.
Hyungtae agreed she was odd.
But he didn't stop there.
He became more and more
obsessed with her, and later...
Mmm.
Yeah? With his own patient he did that?
[Jihyo] Do you think...
you could still live with me
even if I was crazy?
Then eventually,
he started saying strange things.
Such as?
He claimed there was
something in her head.
Something that aliens put in there.
In any case, there's lots more people like
Hyungtae in this world than you'd think.
Hurry, please.
That's probably why the two of them
were able to start a church.
Please keep moving.
- Please keep moving forward!
- Thank you.
- Could you please go in?
- Please make room for everyone.
Please keep moving, Brothers and Sisters!
[Byungjo] I'll be straightforward
with you, Doctor.
Could you tell us, to the best of your
knowledge, whether there's any possibility
either he or the church
has been involved in crime?
Well, any crime aside
from the mass suicide case?
Like kidnapping, or...
Probably not.
He doesn't leave any evidence.
He has connections
with local law enforcement.
Really, I... I... I mean,
even a tiny smidge.
A minuscule, really tiny lead.
Just a little tiny bit of evidence?
Oh...
There. Hmm.
Here, see? He still sends invitations
when they have events.
FLESH TO LIGHT!
THE MESSIAH'S MEMORIAL SERVICE
I guess I should thank him
for not forgetting about me.
- The Messiah is here!
- The Messiah!
[clamoring]
- The Messiah!
- The Messiah!
[clamoring continues outside]
[Hwajung] I need to get in there!
Let go! Let go of me! Let go!
Let go of me! Stop!
Oh! Oh, your Holiness!
Oh! Your Holiness! [laughing]
Aaah! Don't you know me?
[laughing and sobbing] I gave you steak,
don't you remember? Remember?
Your Holiness! No! Let go!
[wails]
Oh, my! I think she recognized me.
Did you see that?
Oh! You recognize me,
your Holiness, right? [sobs]
[Job] Your Holiness.
It's a real honor to see you again.
Your followers... Impressive passion, right?
Well, then... Is this set up to your liking,
your Holiness?
We prepared everything just as you asked.
My chip.
I want it back.
What?
The chip, all right?
What those aliens implanted
right into my brain, that thing.
A chip, huh?
[chuckles]
You mean, um... the gospel of our faith?
Now tell me where it is.
Aliens... A chip?
So tell me, where did you hear
silly words like that?
[Jihyo] I wasn't trying to be "silly".
Give it back.
My chip.
It's mine.
Hold on.
Do you think you could have been...
awakened, your Holiness?
Awakened?
That's right.
I'm sorry to have
to bring this up, however...
the last time I saw you...
sadly, your Holiness...
well, you failed to be awakened.
[on speaker] Your Holiness...
Now, at this point,
do you remember your purpose?
Do you?
Your Holiness.
Honestly, I'm very afraid.
The burden you've placed on my shoulders
is much too heavy
and... frightening.
I'd like to give it to you, trust me.
Then I could finally free myself
of this terrible burden.
However...
all those faithfuls outside
have been following me this whole time.
You see, even if you have returned,
your Holiness,
how could I possibly just
hand over the gospel to you
when you don't even remember...
remember your purpose on this plane?
Wouldn't you agree, your Holiness?
Father Job.
I bet you have no idea
how painful and exhausting
coming back from the dead actually is.
I mean, how could you?
I'm the one who was resurrected.
[quiet murmuring]
Um, what the hell's this brat doing
right now?
Listen, Father.
I remember everything.
The reed field I was in back then.
That's where I first saw the ali...
The first time I met the Light.
- [shocked gasps]
- [man] Sella.
[whispering] Sella. Sella.
- [gasping]
- Sella.
- Sella.
- Sella.
Sella. Sella.
- Sella.
- Oh!
Now give it to me.
I'll do it.
Do what?
Now I'm gonna do it for you.
I'll bring your blessed Light.
- I'll call it and bring your salvation.
- [woman] Messiah!
Isn't that the Messiah's purpose, Father?
[woman] Messiah!
- You want to receive salvation.
- Messiah! Messiah!
- You've all waited this long.
- It's true!
Isn't that right? Believers?
You need salvation.
Together, let's get it!
[gasping]
[murmuring]
- [woman] Oh no!
- [gasping]
- She's got a gun!
- Why are you doing this?
- Put down the gun.
- [woman screams]
[man] Put the gun down.
- Drop the gun now!
- [woman] Don't hurt the Messiah!
- Bora?
- Jihyo, let's go!
- [man] Oh, oh...
- [woman] Oh my God!
Cut the bullshit! Come on, let's go!
- How did you...
- Get the fuck back!
Hey. Come on!
- Get her!
- Grab her, grab her now!
- Get her out, now!
- Jihyo! What are you doing!
- Hey, open the door!
- Let go! Let go! Let go!
Jihyo! Let go!
- [yells]
- [man] Open the door!
Jihyo! What are you doing?
- Get her out of here!
[sighs]
FROM FLESH TO LIGHT
DIVINE LIGHT CHURCH
[door opens]
- Oh, wait. Your Holiness, wait.
- Hey! Gah!
Get out of here!
Don't grab me like that again!
I need to talk to her,
so please give us the room.
Yes, your Holiness.
Well, aren't you Little Miss Popular?
[Jihyo sighs]
Leave.
I'll let you go.
What are you saying? And you?
Cap, where is he?
- You here alone?
- I'm not leaving you here.
[sighs]
Seriously, what in the hell
are you even doing here, Jihyo?
You know that already.
Know what already?
So you're gonna defend the Earth yourself?
Yeah.
Christ, you've really lost it.
Bora. [sighs]
Listen to me. I'm aware you think
I'm crazy, all right?
Well, uh... I am being a bit nuts...
This is my only chance to find it.
My chip may have the answers.
Almost everyone's convinced now.
And that Father's position is-
You believe what he says, really?
Hey, no, of course not.
If I get this chip back,
then I'll take off first chance I get.
No, not that, you moron.
No, I mean the destruction of mankind.
Do you actually believe all that?
You don't believe it?
You think a UFO will come down?
And that the world will end too?
Oh, fuck, seriously,
how does that make any sense?
Are you really gonna drink the Kool-Aid
with the rest of them?
[chuckles]
That's bold, coming from you.
Why's that?
Am I not allowed to be rational?
The whole reason I'm even here
is because of you.
[sighs] I never said we should put
our lives on the line over this nonsense.
- Look, I just...
- Oh, hell, no!
Then what about me, then? Huh?
The... the implant...
You mean the field,
everything, was all just bullshit?
If that's true, then what have
I been doing this whole time? Tell me.
- Jihyo.
- I'm not the only one who's seen them.
You said you saw them too!
So was that really all a lie?
No...
[sighs]
So then why...
Really, Bora, come on,
why are you being like this?
Ah, fuck, I don't care
if the world ends or not.
Seriously, though,
I'm not letting you get brainwashed.
We're leaving together.
Thank you, Bora.
I...
Listen, I just wanted
to explain this myself...
Let's just go. Let's just leave and...
Come in!
- [door opens]
- [man] Yes, your Holiness.
- She's a non-believer. Take her away.
- [Bora] What?
- [both] Yes.
- Hey!
Get her out of the compound.
Make sure she doesn't get hurt.
- Cut the bullshit, Jihyo!
- Take her away immediately.
[Bora] Let go! Let go of me!
Hey! Jihyo!
Fuck! Let go! Let go of me!
[screams] Let go!
- [yelps]
- [Jihyo sighs]
[sniffs]
[sighs]
I can do this.

You didn't...
You didn't have to kick her out.
That was for me to decide.
- So to continue what we were talking...
- Do whatever you want, your Holiness.
What?
I'll give you back the gospel.
Do as you wish.
Um, why?
What you said earlier... You were right.
Real faith is just believing.
With my lack of wisdom,
I acted very arrogant in front of you...
It was presumptuous of me.
Please forgive me.
Your Divine Holiness.
- [man] Take it easy.
- [Bora gasps]
God damn it!
[sighs]
[sighs]
[Jihyo] Sorry to bother you,
but can I get a light?
Do you like that kinda stuff?
Aliens, UFOs, that kinda stuff?
- Ah, no!
- [laughing]
Yeah. It was you, you fucking bitch!
Are you crazy?
I thought everything was your fault.
So I honestly don't really know
why I came here.
[Bora] Hmm.
[low whirring]
[rumbling]
[wind rushing]
[gasps]
Really, thank you so much for everything.
What?
Could you please tell everyone
I said that, too?
- Wait, you...
- [car door closes]
Petite! Petite, where are you going?
[ringing tone]
[adult Jihyo] That day,
everything changed.
My whole life changed.

I will make sure to protect you.
- I'd risk my life for you.
- Thanks, but I doubt that would help much.
If they catch us,
they'll kill us immediately. Both of us.
Your Father, or, I mean,
whatever that scum is,
is more than capable of doing that.
Seriously, remember
the kind of men he sent?
So cut the nonsense
and just focus on driving, okay?
I'll come up with some sort of a plan.

Nice to see you.
[grunts]

Ugh!
Sister Seo. Having trouble?
Uh, no...
Of course not, Sister Back.
Everything's fine, thank you.
I'm sure you'd agree this is mild,
considering what could've
happened after what you did.
Of course, Sister Back, I know.
Then put your back into it.
As you know,
the world will soon be ending.
- Take it seriously.
- Yeah.
You're unbelievable, really. Do it right!

SISTER SEO HWAJUNG
SERIOUSLY, CHANWOO, WHERE ARE YOU?
[Hwajung] "If you're alive,
please text me. Please."
"The preparations for the memorial service
are almost done."
"Hurry up and get here!
I wanna receive salvation together!"
"I'm... I'm so miserable
and lonely right now."
"On this wonderful day of all days..."
[phone chimes]
[gasps]
Oh my!
[Direct Kim] Where are you?
Oh!
[ringing]
[phone ringing]
[ringing stops]
[chimes]
What?
What?
[Direct Kim] My battery is low,
so it'll be hard to call.
- My apologies, Sister Seo.
- Uh...
[Hwajung] Chanwoo,
why was your phone off?
Are you okay?
What happened that day
after you left with her Holiness?
Honestly, I'm so confused right now.
[Direct Kim] It's difficult
to tell you through text.
Where are you right now, Sister Seo?
[Hwajung] I told you already, I'm here
preparing for the memorial service.
What are you doing? Why aren't
you here yet? Hurry up and get here!
[Direct Kim] Sister Seo,
what is the address? I was not informed.

Direct Kim?
A register?
HONG JUNSIK (HONG JIHYO'S FATHER)
Detective Kim Byungjo.
Yes, yes, of course. Yes, sir. Yes.
Uh, yes. [clears throat]
Yes, I've been quite busy lately, so, yes.
Pardon?
Ms. Hong, again?
Yes, sir, Did she um, uh... mention
where she was going before she left?
Sorry?
She... Wait, who... who...
Who did she leave with?
Bieber?
Yes.
He's a stray cat I take care of.
We left to go look for him.
Ah, I see. And then what?
And, well...
We talked about our past,
then... got into a fight.
At least I think it was.
I mean, anyway, after that, well...
She abruptly left,
as if something bad happened.
Do you mind if I ask
what the fight was about?
She asked if I really tried to do it.
Do what?
Commit suicide.
She asked if I really moved out,
bought tickets, and flew out to Thailand.
Just like that, out of the blue.
[Byungjo] So, Lee Siguk came back.
Hm, Lee Siguk, really?
What?
I just met with him.
He's living at Miss Hong's place for now.
So, where has he been, then?
Was he actually kidnapped for real?
Well, I mean, we can't
rule out that possibility.
Looks like he doesn't remember
anything that happened.
[gasps] That's crazy.
Did you find anything of importance?
Oh, I might've. Uh...
Looks like it's some kind of a register.
In the folder named "Direct." Take a guess
whose names popped up in here.
Whose?
Oh, do you mean the mass suicide
case victims? The nursing home?
Yeah, it looks like
the same day as the suicides,
those people
were taken off the member register.
Do you want to know
what's really strange, though?
What?
- There's one more person on the list.
- What?
This person didn't die.
So what was the point
of crossing off their name?
[sighs]
Maybe they knew something about
the suicides they shouldn't have.
Maybe they know what happened.
- Is there a contact on there?
- I just sent it to you.
- [phone chimes]
- Mmm, I'll head out there now.
Uh... Excuse me...
Mr. Lee?
Sorry but, were you just talking
about a cult? Kidnapping?
[sighs]
It's been a long time, hasn't it?
I know...
I know just how much you've worked...
to get to this point.
[Brother Oh] Uh, Father?
[clears throat]
- I brought what you asked for.
- [Job] Great.
Put it inside.
- Nearly everyone has arrived, Father.
- Mmm.
What of the...
drugs?
- We've handed them out as they come in.
- Good.
It'll work, right?
Once they take it, um...
it only takes three minutes to work.
- And there's no pain at all.
- All right.
Um, pardon me...
[Job] What is it?
Uh, um, well, uh...
[chuckles]
Uh, well, I... [clears throat]
Is this about her Holiness?
Would you consider
maybe postponing the ceremony for now?
Her body was supposed
to be revealed today.
Fa... Father, I know
she left behind the gospel,
but everyone was expecting
to see her body, you understand.
The congregation will most likely want
some kind of proof
of her Holiness' martyrdom.
- You see? So...
- Proof, is that right?
- So maybe we...
- I guess that's necessary, huh?
Without proof then...
they'd say that this was all scam.
- Isn't that right?
- No! [chuckles]
I mean, I would never say that...
- Look, Brother Oh.
- I just... Yes?
Do you fear the congregation, Brother?
Father?
I do...
fear them.
The one we've been waiting for...
Her Holiness, herself...
Her Holiness couldn't accept...
couldn't accept her calling and ran away.
[sighs] I can't bring myself
to say what happened.
They've been waiting for so long.
I can't tell them, because, honestly...
I really am very... scared.
Uh, yes, Father.
[man] Come in, welcome!
FROM FLESH TO LIGHT!
THE MESSIAH'S MEMORIAL SERVICE
Please move quickly.
[man on PA] Welcome, everyone.
Please hurry in.
The Father's speech will begin shortly.
GET YOUR MERCH HERE
The Father's speech will start soon.
Please gather by the stage,
and find a seat.
- Stay in line so we can scan your ticket.
- [man] We need to scan the QR code.
- Yes, QR code.
- For quick entry, have your QR code ready.
Yes, please hurry in, everyone!
The Father's speech will start soon.
Hurry in. Please come in quickly.
We'll be closing the entrance soon.
Please make sure
to keep the necklace with you.
We will be closing the entrance soon!
- They already started.
- What?
[door alarm bleeps]
Hey!
Seriously?
Wait. What's that? What are you planning?
We have no time, your Holiness.
The second the speech ends,
Father is going to be calling the Light.
So we better get going and go in now.
Get in how? Those people will see us.
Look, I'm not afraid, your Holiness.
- You're gonna get yourself killed!
- You'll give me salvation, won't you?
"On that glorious day,
the Messiah will come down,
overcoming the trial of death."
..."The Messiah said to the sheep..."
- [sighs]
"'The body is a prison, with bars
of carbon. Follow me towards the Light.'"
[gasps]
"The Blessed Light will wear the flesh
of a man and will arrive among us."
FROM FLESH TO LIGHT!
THE MESSIAH'S MEMORIAL SERVICE
The Light will wear the flesh of mankind
and come down among us."
- Just wait a minute!
- "The body..."
Hold on a minute.
You believe in me, am I right?
Yes, your Holiness. Of course.
Then that means...
so do those people, right?
- What?
- I mean, those people believe in me.
Like you do. Isn't that right?
I'm sure...

Today has come.
Brothers and Sisters.
We have waited...

Trust me, I know...
I know what sacrifices you all made
in preparation for this day.
I know some of you have even
abandoned your jobs.
Some of you abandoned your families too.
And some of you abandoned your honor.
I know there are even those
who gave up their own lives
because waiting was just too much
for their hearts to handle.
But finally, today...
Everyone...
The day has come nigh!

Although our Messiah...
although she has now moved on...
our beloved Messiah...
has left a gift!
Our magnanimous Messiah, before leaving,
has graciously left us
the last key to paradise!

Come quickly!
Hurry!
[Job] To this day...
[gasps]
...I remember clearly
how her Holiness appeared that day.
- [gasping]
- Her Holiness...
suffered greatly
until her very last breath,
all so she could bring
us the truth of ascension,
and grant us all salvation.
- [murmuring]
- [woman] She's here.
- To save us, she endured trials...
- Confirm it quickly.
- ...flesh...
- Someone's coming.
However, her body, her mortal coil,
was not able to endure the heavy burden...

- [man] What?
It's the Messiah!
She's not dead?
[loud gasping and screams]
She's alive!
The Messiah lives!
- It's her!
- Is this real?
The Messiah! She's come alive!
I can't see!
Does he know that she's alive?
[Phillip] Captain Price?
Cap!
Oh. Oh. Oh, hey.
So what... what happened, man?
So bad news, Cap...
- Your café got totally wrecked.
- Oh, I have no idea, man.
What about Moonhole?
You said she was here.
- What?
- Where'd she go?
[murmuring and gasping]
Is that really her?
[deaconess] Sister Abigail!
Abigail, who's this person?
Yes, this person...
It's true, she's the Messiah.
[gasping]
[deaconess] But, but... how?
Father said she passed away. Didn't he?
[Younggi] The truth... the truth is...
Um, um, well, I'm... resurrected.
[murmuring]
Huh?
Oh, shit...
Everyone!
I've been resurrected!
[gasps]
"And on this glorious day,
the Messiah will come down, overcoming...

I need to talk to you!
Silence!
[silence falls]
Forgive me.
What was that, your Holiness?
We need to talk, all right?
Of course.
This way, somewhere quiet.
No, not somewhere quiet.
Right here.
Here, in front of everyone.
I
I have nothing to hide!
I won't hide from my believers!

Excuse me?

[laughs] Oh, Sister!
The memorial service, it's been canceled.
It's a miracle!

- Huh?
Her Holiness is back from the dead!
- She has been resurrected!
- Woah!
- Resurrected!
- Wait, what?
- Uh... Wait, who... who's back?
- Her Holiness. Her Holiness has risen!
She has returned to bring us salvation!

[Byungjo] I mean,
what was I supposed to do?
He said he wanted to come.
He was staring at me like a lost puppy.
How could you let a civilian
investigate with us?
[Byungjo] Hey, it's fine.
It doesn't matter.
You're a civilian too, remember?
[Sehee chuckles awkwardly]
[door opens]
- [man] Kim Byungjo? Please come in.
- Yes.
Which one of you is Kim Byungjo?
Detective Kim Byungjo from Geoan Station.
Doctor, you used to be a part
of the Divine Light Church, right?
This punk.
Is he causing trouble again?
[woman on PA] Attention,
Brothers and Sisters,
the memorial service has been canceled.
In a moment, the Father
will have an audience with the Messiah.
Please gather in the assembly hall.
[loud cheering]
I repeat, the memorial service
has been canceled.
In a moment, the Father
will have an audience with the Messiah.
Please gather in the assembly hall.
[man] Please take a seat.
Please take a seat, quickly.
[Sehee] You're saying...
she can communicate with aliens?
She told everyone she could.
That's why she got taken
to the welfare center.
Doctor, could you please tell us
what exactly a welfare center does?
It's just a center for the mentally ill,
and also the homeless, and drug addicts.
So, you mean Moon Hyungtae...
We were interns at the welfare center.
I mean, honestly, we worked
with many bizarre patients there.
Though the strangest...
was this woman who claimed
to be able to communicate with aliens!
A lot of doctors took interest in her
because of that.
Hyungtae agreed she was odd.
But he didn't stop there.
He became more and more
obsessed with her, and later...
Mmm.
Yeah? With his own patient he did that?
[Jihyo] Do you think...
you could still live with me
even if I was crazy?
Then eventually,
he started saying strange things.
Such as?
He claimed there was
something in her head.
Something that aliens put in there.
In any case, there's lots more people like
Hyungtae in this world than you'd think.
Hurry, please.
That's probably why the two of them
were able to start a church.
Please keep moving.
- Please keep moving forward!
- Thank you.
- Could you please go in?
- Please make room for everyone.
Please keep moving, Brothers and Sisters!
[Byungjo] I'll be straightforward
with you, Doctor.
Could you tell us, to the best of your
knowledge, whether there's any possibility
either he or the church
has been involved in crime?
Well, any crime aside
from the mass suicide case?
Like kidnapping, or...
Probably not.
He doesn't leave any evidence.
He has connections
with local law enforcement.
Really, I... I... I mean,
even a tiny smidge.
A minuscule, really tiny lead.
Just a little tiny bit of evidence?
Oh...
There. Hmm.
Here, see? He still sends invitations
when they have events.

for not forgetting about me.

- The Messiah!

[clamoring continues outside]
[Hwajung] I need to get in there!
Let go! Let go of me! Let go!
Let go of me! Stop!
Oh! Oh, your Holiness!
Oh! Your Holiness! [laughing]
Aaah! Don't you know me?
[laughing and sobbing] I gave you steak,
don't you remember? Remember?
Your Holiness! No! Let go!
[wails]
Oh, my! I think she recognized me.
Did you see that?
Oh! You recognize me,
your Holiness, right? [sobs]
[Job] Your Holiness.
It's a real honor to see you again.
Your followers... Impressive passion, right?
Well, then... Is this set up to your liking,
your Holiness?
We prepared everything just as you asked.
My chip.
I want it back.
What?
The chip, all right?
What those aliens implanted
right into my brain, that thing.
A chip, huh?
[chuckles]
You mean, um... the gospel of our faith?
Now tell me where it is.
Aliens... A chip?
So tell me, where did you hear
silly words like that?
[Jihyo] I wasn't trying to be "silly".
Give it back.
My chip.
It's mine.
Hold on.
Do you think you could have been...
awakened, your Holiness?
Awakened?
That's right.
I'm sorry to have
to bring this up, however...
the last time I saw you...
sadly, your Holiness...
well, you failed to be awakened.
[on speaker] Your Holiness...
Now, at this point,
do you remember your purpose?
Do you?
Your Holiness.
Honestly, I'm very afraid.
The burden you've placed on my shoulders
is much too heavy
and... frightening.
I'd like to give it to you, trust me.
Then I could finally free myself
of this terrible burden.
However...
all those faithfuls outside
have been following me this whole time.
You see, even if you have returned,
your Holiness,
how could I possibly just
hand over the gospel to you
when you don't even remember...
remember your purpose on this plane?
Wouldn't you agree, your Holiness?
Father Job.
I bet you have no idea
how painful and exhausting
coming back from the dead actually is.
I mean, how could you?
I'm the one who was resurrected.
[quiet murmuring]
Um, what the hell's this brat doing
right now?
Listen, Father.
I remember everything.
The reed field I was in back then.
That's where I first saw the ali...
The first time I met the Light.

- [man] Sella.
[whispering] Sella. Sella.

- Sella.
- Sella.

Sella. Sella.

- Oh!
Now give it to me.
I'll do it.
Do what?
Now I'm gonna do it for you.
I'll bring your blessed Light.
- I'll call it and bring your salvation.
- [woman] Messiah!
Isn't that the Messiah's purpose, Father?
[woman] Messiah!
- You want to receive salvation.
- Messiah! Messiah!
- You've all waited this long.
- It's true!
Isn't that right? Believers?
You need salvation.
Together, let's get it!
[gasping]
[murmuring]
- [woman] Oh no!
- [gasping]
- She's got a gun!
- Why are you doing this?
- Put down the gun.
- [woman screams]
[man] Put the gun down.
- Drop the gun now!
- [woman] Don't hurt the Messiah!
- Bora?
- Jihyo, let's go!
- [man] Oh, oh...
- [woman] Oh my God!
Cut the bullshit! Come on, let's go!
- How did you...
- Get the fuck back!
Hey. Come on!
- Get her!
- Grab her, grab her now!
- Get her out, now!
- Jihyo! What are you doing!
- Hey, open the door!
- Let go! Let go! Let go!
Jihyo! Let go!

- Oh, wait. Your Holiness, wait.
- Hey! Gah!
Get out of here!
Don't grab me like that again!
I need to talk to her,
so please give us the room.
Yes, your Holiness.
Well, aren't you Little Miss Popular?
[Jihyo sighs]
Leave.
I'll let you go.
What are you saying? And you?
Cap, where is he?
- You here alone?
- I'm not leaving you here.
[sighs]
Seriously, what in the hell
are you even doing here, Jihyo?
You know that already.
Know what already?
So you're gonna defend the Earth yourself?
Yeah.
Christ, you've really lost it.
Bora. [sighs]
Listen to me. I'm aware you think
I'm crazy, all right?
Well, uh... I am being a bit nuts...
This is my only chance to find it.
My chip may have the answers.
Almost everyone's convinced now.
And that Father's position is-
You believe what he says, really?
Hey, no, of course not.
If I get this chip back,
then I'll take off first chance I get.
No, not that, you moron.
No, I mean the destruction of mankind.
Do you actually believe all that?
You don't believe it?
You think a UFO will come down?
And that the world will end too?
Oh, fuck, seriously,
how does that make any sense?
Are you really gonna drink the Kool-Aid
with the rest of them?
[chuckles]
That's bold, coming from you.
Why's that?
Am I not allowed to be rational?
The whole reason I'm even here
is because of you.
[sighs] I never said we should put
our lives on the line over this nonsense.
- Look, I just...
- Oh, hell, no!
Then what about me, then? Huh?
The... the implant...
You mean the field,
everything, was all just bullshit?
If that's true, then what have
I been doing this whole time? Tell me.
- Jihyo.
- I'm not the only one who's seen them.
You said you saw them too!
So was that really all a lie?
No...
[sighs]
So then why...
Really, Bora, come on,
why are you being like this?
Ah, fuck, I don't care
if the world ends or not.
Seriously, though,
I'm not letting you get brainwashed.
We're leaving together.
Thank you, Bora.
I...
Listen, I just wanted
to explain this myself...
Let's just go. Let's just leave and...
Come in!
- [door opens]
- [man] Yes, your Holiness.
- She's a non-believer. Take her away.
- [Bora] What?
- [both] Yes.
- Hey!
Get her out of the compound.
Make sure she doesn't get hurt.
- Cut the bullshit, Jihyo!
- Take her away immediately.
[Bora] Let go! Let go of me!
Hey! Jihyo!
Fuck! Let go! Let go of me!
[screams] Let go!
- [yelps]
- [Jihyo sighs]
[sniffs]
[sighs]
I can do this.

You didn't...
You didn't have to kick her out.
That was for me to decide.
- So to continue what we were talking...
- Do whatever you want, your Holiness.
What?
I'll give you back the gospel.
Do as you wish.
Um, why?
What you said earlier... You were right.
Real faith is just believing.
With my lack of wisdom,
I acted very arrogant in front of you...
It was presumptuous of me.
Please forgive me.
Your Divine Holiness.
- [man] Take it easy.
- [Bora gasps]
God damn it!
[sighs]
[sighs]
[Jihyo] Sorry to bother you,
but can I get a light?
Do you like that kinda stuff?
Aliens, UFOs, that kinda stuff?
- Ah, no!
- [laughing]
Yeah. It was you, you fucking bitch!
Are you crazy?
I thought everything was your fault.
So I honestly don't really know
why I came here.
[Bora] Hmm.
