God's Quiz (2010–…): Season 1, Episode 5 - Protein Tracer - full transcript

The team works to rescue a kidnapped little boy who has PKU disease.

Joon-seo!

Please lay something on the ground.
Quickly!

His breathing is getting shallow.

I think I need to do a tracheostomy.

If I don't do it within two to
three minutes, it may cause brain damage.

MILK

Joon-seo Lee!

How many times did I tell you
not to drink milk?

Here comes my punch!

This time, it's a kick.
It's a massive kick. I got you!



-I won!
-Geez.

-Hey, Yu-seok!
-Yes?

Can you lend this one to me?

This one? Sure!

-Thank you.
-Sure.

-See you tomorrow!
-Make sure you return it tomorrow.

Sure, I will. See you!

21 HOURS EARLIER

-Hello.
- Prepare half a billion won

by four o'clock tomorrow afternoon.

Wire one hundred million won
to the five bank accounts

that I texted you.

If you don't,

your child will die.



THE NFS FOUNDED MEDICAL EXAMINER OFFICE
IN FIVE UNIVERSITY HOSPITALS.

THE OFFICE IN HANKOOK UNIVERSITY IS
IN CHARGE OF SECOND AUTOPSIES

AND HAS INVESTIGATION AUTHORITY
OVER RARE DISEASE CASES.

EPISODE 5

It'll be out soon.

It'll be next right after this.

Here I am! Here I am!

-Wow. You're right.
-Wow.

How did you come up with this idea?

I finally succeeded in doing this

after carefully planning for a whole week.

Now, the whole world is watching me!

I want to do it too!

-Me too!
-So do I!

You're so envious of me
whenever I do something.

It'll be so much fun!

17 HOURS EARLIER

MILK

My mom told me not to eat things
like these.

Eat!

Yes, sir.

Do you have any lead?

There's been none since the first contact.

Wasn't it tracked?

It turned out to be an Internet phone
when we looked it up.

The IP is all over the place.

It was tracked to the States and Italy.

We couldn't possibly track it.

Besides, the voice was completely
distorted as well.

It seems like he or she is an expert
in this field.

According to the eyewitness,

he only got to see
the back of the suspect.

He saw that the kid suddenly collapsed

and the car drove off straight after.

Then, could the suspect use a stun gun?

I think so. What a bastard!

They use things like that
even to kids these days.

What about the number plate?

The eyewitness could remember it,
so we looked it up.

It was fake and the car was a stolen car.

The car was found in Gwangjang-dong
about two hours ago.

But nothing was found.

I think he must have abandoned it
not to be traced.

Let's go inside.

Here is Detective, Kyung-hee Kang

from the forensic science team.

Detective Kang,

my son's very ill.

He shouldn't eat just about anything.
If he does, he might die.

Please.

Please.

Make sure he's unharmed.

Please help us find him no matter what.

Joon-seo.

14 HOURS EARLIER

I'm sorry to ask you all to come here
on your day off.

It's okay. All I do at home is
nothing but lounge around.

It's not the first time she pestered us.

Why are you whining
when you live at the hospital?

What does the police need?

To provide information on the disease
and assist with the investigation.

To assist?

They want the medical examiners
to come up with the clue

relating to the disease
to catch the suspect.

Of course, we should do it,
if it helps them.

Is his disease PKU?

Yes, it is.

My cousin's son has the disease.

They are going through so much
because of it.

What kind of disease is it in detail?

To put it simply,

in the proteins in our body

there are things called phenylalanine.
Let's take a look.

PHENYLALANINE: AN ESSENTIAL AMINO ACID

Only when they are broken down well
in our body,

you can have a normal metabolism.

However, when the enzymes
that break them down

don't function properly,

phenylalanines get accumulated
in our body.

When the phenylalanines get accumulated
in our body,

the nerves get damaged
and developmental disorders will ensue.

It normally occurs during infancy.

If you don't have it under control then,
the IQ might drop to 50.

Even if you find out about it early enough
and have it under control,

it's futile unless
you continuously keep it under control.

That's because the relapse rate is
incredibly high.

I heard they should be careful

-with what they are eating.
-Right.

Any food high in protein is prohibited.

No food made out of flour or rice
is allowed, either.

They can only eat things like starch,

potatoes, vegetables and fruits.

If they happen to eat any prohibited food
by accident,

they can have a temporary convulsion.

Like what Dr. Han said, in a serious case,

brain damage might result from it.

This is the recent medical record
of Joon-seo Lee.

He's had a recent relapse.

The number is quite high.

If he eats anything that he shouldn't...

Besides, if he is under enormous stress,

he might experience
a much faster and bigger shock.

Let's slow down a bit.
We are not Usain Bolt.

Why are you in such a hurry?

What's wrong with your kid?
Isn't he toilet-trained?

He even peed in his pants.

No, my son...

Please don't hurt him.

12 HOURS EARLIER

He might have done that
because he was scared.

Did he happen to eat anything?

Milk and bread.

They didn't go bad, either.

If he does this again and die,
I'm not responsible for it.

No! Please...

No!

We'll prepare the money
until the set time,

please don't harm Joon-seo.

Please.

He won't die from not eating for a day

so I won't feed him until tomorrow.

Hello. Hello.

Hello!

By the way,
why didn't you tell the kidnapper

that your son has a condition?

We saw it on the TV a while ago

when the kidnapped child caught the flu,

the kidnapper killed the child

just because it was annoying.

We need to let the kidnapper know
about the child's condition.

Wouldn't it make it worse
like the mother said?

If we don't do anything now,
the child will be put in more danger.

I wish my brain was a magic lamp.

So, a magical solution pops out
when I rub it.

Can you tilt it to the right a little bit?

Yes, that's good.

The sweat and urine of a patient
with severe PKU

smell like mouse urine.

The smell of a mouse's urine...

The smell of a mouse's urine...

It must smell really bad.

Where the heck did it go?

What are you up to?

I've been tracking the IP
of the suspect's Internet phone.

It's not easy.

Whenever I get to close,
it runs away from me.

It exasperates me.

Did you know how to do things like this?

Didn't you know

he won the national hacking championship

three times when he was a medical student?

Oh, really?

The rumor says that he even hacked

-the National Intelligence Service.
-Shush.

If I hadn't become an autopsy examiner,

I would have become a wanted man
by the Interpol.

Wow. That sounds so cool!

But all you do with this splendid skill is

to download porn videos for free.

That's enough, Dr. Han.

It's connected, Detective Kang.

Can you see us?

There are quite a number
of surveillance cameras,

but nothing was captured.

Not even on the cameras
on the nearby streets.

It seems he meticulously studied
the blind spots.

He must have kept his eye on Joon-seo's
for a long time.

Dr. Han!

What the...

This is the mouse urine
that you requested.

I seduced a guinea pig to pee.

What do you mean by seducing it?

Doesn't this mean that I assisted
with the investigation, does it?

Say things like that
after solving the case.

It really smells horrible.

Wait a moment.

What's the matter?

Yoon-jung, can you enlarge

the third screen a little bit more?

That's it! I'm so glad to see it!

What is it?

Do you see the car over there?

That car is used to make road view maps.

The equipment looks much better
than before.

Hold on.

Could it be that the car might have filmed
the suspect's car?

9 HOURS EARLIER

I'm sorry, Chief.

Strictly speaking, this case belongs
to our department.

I feel like I've created more work
for you.

That's okay.

It's good to be involved
in a different work, too.

We get to know what you do, too.

I don't have any autopsies
scheduled tomorrow.

I have loads of reports to write, though.

Let's have a look.

Oh, Professor!

What brought you here
this early in the morning?

I should come when you all are working
so hard on the case.

How did you get to know about it?

Dr. Han kept texting me
that he's still working

and starving.

Look at him.

He's not a medical doctor.
He's a nuisance doctor.

-Let's open them up.
-Yes, sir.

-Come here and eat.
-Let's eat.

It's the smell of fried chicken.

I smell fried chicken...

Not being able to eat what you want to eat
is most painful

for children.

How inconvenient is it to keep the child
on a restricted diet?

Fortunately,

there's this low-protein rice available
these days.

Is low-protein rice available everywhere?

I don't think I've ever come across
anything like that.

Of course, not.

Because the demand is low.

So, the families of the patients

directly place an order together

to the manufacturer.

As far as I know, our hospital

also gets the low-protein rice
through the direct order.

Then, don't the big supermarket chains
carry them?

From what I hear,

only a few designated supermarkets
carry them.

That's it.

Let's use a bait.

What do you mean?

I'm saying we should do some fishing.

What are you talking about?

First of all,

after asking for cooperation
from the manufacturer,

we distribute the products
all over the big supermarkets in Seoul.

The total number of the big supermarkets
in Seoul

isn't that large.

Let me see.

There's even some time left
before the opening hour.

Right.

What you are saying is
that we catch or track him

by using it as a bait!

That's precisely what I'm saying.

But would the kidnapper go and buy it?

He said he wouldn't feed him anything
until tomorrow.

So, we need to make sure he buys it
no matter what.

No matter what!

5 HOURS EARLIER

I'm sorry but there is something

that I didn't share with you before.

Tell me.

Joon-seo is very sick.

What?

If he doesn't eat properly,
he can have brain damage.

What are you talking
about all of a sudden?

I'll put on Joon-seo's doctor for you.

Should I really do this?

You sound much more reliable than me.

Quickly, please.

I'm Kyu-tae Jang, Joon-seo's doctor
from Hankook University Hospital.

What are you all doing now?

It only takes a moment.
Please hear me out.

Joon-seo suffers from

phenylketonuria.

PKU: PHENYLKETONURIA

It's due to the amino acid abnormality.

It's a serious condition.

If he has an oxidized stomach acid reflux,

it can damage his central nervous system.

It might lead to brain death.

Since Joon-seo is under extreme stress,

those symptoms can occur much faster.

So, you need to feed him something.

I fed him before
but he threw everything up.

However,

what's special about this disease is

that you should not feed him anything

that's commercially available
such as snacks and drinks.

He might vomit and have severe convulsions

or die from a shock.

I heard that he's already had a shock.

So,

what do you want from me?

Well, when you go out

there's this low-protein rice available.

It's microwavable.

Please feed him that rice
and some raw vegetables like cucumbers.

Why should I do that?

Only when the child is healthy,

we will happily prepare the money.
Doesn't it make sense?

Are you threatening me now?

No, I'm not. No.

All I want is for Joon-seo
to come home unscathed.

Please, I beg you.

Please.

Hello. Hello. Hello.

Hello!

4 HOURS EARLIER

If he's bitten our bait,

he'd probably be wandering around.

Because they are not available
in small shops.

He would eventually end up

ENTRANCE

going to a major mart.

We've asked for cooperation
from all the supermarkets across Seoul.

We just hope he'll bite the bait.

LOW-PROTEIN RICE

It's 17,300 won.

Do you need a bag?

Sir!

-Did you miss him?
-Where is he?

Search everywhere
including the parking lot and toilets.

-Yes, sir!
-Yes, sir!

MEN'S TOILET

He's not here.

Sorry, ma'am.

I'm sorry, ma'am.

What happened?

No, it wasn't that. It wasn't our idea.

The police peremptorily...

It doesn't matter whose idea it was.

You didn't keep your promise.

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

We will never do this again.

I don't care.

It's the end for Joon-seo.

Don't blame me.

No, don't do it. No.

Please forgive us.

Please, I beg you to forgive us.

The money will be ready soon.

We won't make a mistake.

Please give us one more chance.

Then, I'll give you just one more chance.

Thank you so much. Thank you so much.

But you need to transfer the money
until one o'clock.

I beg your pardon?

That's not possible.

It's not possible to prepare
that much money in just two hours.

It's your problem.

If you want to save his life,
do what you need to do.

I'm so sorry but...

can we please hear Joon-seo's voice
just once?

Please.

At one o'clock sharp,

a phone number will be texted to you.

If you call that number,
Joon-seo will answer it.

Once you hear his voice,
wire the money straight away.

Hello. Hello.

Hello!

Gosh.

They were so close to catching him.
How did he get away?

Since it seems like the child is safe,

we need to come up with something else.

We don't have enough time.

Besides, we don't have any clues.

The road view clip has arrived
from the map company.

When you look at it here,
a car is approaching.

It's the suspect's car.

And when you look at it carefully here.

It looks like a Gothic pattern
or a sign of Satan.

Even his tattoo looks very vicious.

Hand it over quickly to the police.

They might have some record on it.

Yes.

Yes, Detective Park.

Detective Kang, come to D Market first.

We should start over from there.

And bring Dr. Han with you,

just in case anything happens to Joon-seo.

Yes, I get it.

I'll go to the market with Dr. Han.

Am I tagging along again?

Am I a detective or a doctor?

I really do not know my own identity.

My shirt really smells bad
since I've been wearing it for three days.

I'll go change my clothes.

Oh, that's right. The smell.

The smell of a mouse's urine.

Do I really smell that bad?

No, not you. I was talking about Joon-seo.

The smell of a mouse's urine.

Are you talking about the smell of
the PKU patients'

sweat and urine that you mentioned before?

Yes.

The kidnapper told us
that Joon-seo peed in his pants.

How can we catch the kidnapper with that?

The police dog might be able to trace it.

If the smell is very unique.

It's not just unique.

It's like

a combination of the smells
of ammonia, armpits,

urine, rotten beer and...

You would never know
if you didn't smell it yourselves.

I think we should start at the mart
that he visited first.

Wouldn't the scope be a bit too wide?

He could have moved with a vehicle.

But we need to start somewhere.

Excuse me, Mrs. Lee.

Are there underwear or pants
of Joon-seo's that haven't been washed?

Yes,

there might be.

Seong-do, you can really do it, right?

Sure. I'll show you how good I am.

If only you get caught...

Even the cyber investigation team has
a hard time with it. Can you do it?

Hey,

give credit to him.
He's the king of the porn hacking.

That's it!

What? Did you get it? Did you?

To the right from Gui junction.

It's within the radius of 100m.

Isn't it too wide?

That's doable.

1 HOUR EARLIER

-Let's go.
-Yes.

30 MINUTES EARLIER

How are things?

I think we are on the right track

but it takes time because
there are many alleys.

There are only 30 minutes left now.

Detective Kang, I'll stand by

and try to find the more exact location.

How can you do that?

Many Wi-Fi signals are being detected
around here.

But it's not discernible at the moment.

When the suspect is trying
to check the account on the Internet

at one o'clock,

I'll catch him in action.

Wow. You're so cool!

You seem to be
a completely different person.

Now, we're running out of time.

Look around at the back once more, team B.

We will do here. Let's hurry.

-Yes.
-Let's go.

-Let's go.
-Go!

It's frustrating.

Please, quick. Quick.

Hello.

Joon-seo.

Mom.

Joon-seo.

Stay with me, Joon-seo.

Please say something.

Where are you, Joon-seo?

It's dark.

I cannot see anything.

What are you talking about?

Are you unwell, Joon-seo?

The TRANSFER HAS BEEN COMPLETED

I feel dizzy, Mom.

I feel suffocated.

Joon-seo, what...

The smell of gas...

I can smell the gas.

Computer. Computer...

What are you talking about?

A computer?

I saw the face.

Did you see the face of the bad man?

Did you recognize him?

Yes.

He came to our home last time...

Excuse me. Can you please pass that to me?

Hello. Hello.

Joon-seo!

Joon-seo!

The phone is disconnected.

What should we do?

Okay! I got you!

You are moving to somewhere else.

Come over here. Here.

Hey, what's up with the dog?

It seems like there's something potent.

When a dog puts his head up
and spins like this,

it means there's something
that smells really strong.

More powerful
than the smell of a mouse's urine

Hello.

Yes, Seong-do.

Where?

It's to the southeast of

where we are at now.

It's within the radius of 50m.
Okay. Thanks.

-Detective Kang.
-Let's hurry up.

BANK ACCOUNT DETAILS

Detective Kang, please find him quickly.

Otherwise, he'll be suffocated.

What?

Oh, I'm sorry.

Here you are.

Dr. Han.

The tattoo.

It's the tattoo.

That way!

Please take care of the rest.

Sure. Go ahead.

-Hey, Seong-do.
-Yes.

I lost the suspect.

Did you locate it?

It's around here.

Detective Kang, come over here!

What's the matter?

The gas meter.

We need to find one rolling up quickly.

No one uses gas much at this time,

especially in an empty house.

Detective Kang!

Take a look at here.

BASEMENT

Joon-seo! Joon-seo!

Detective Oh, please cut off this lock.

Joon-seo!

Joon-seo. Please move aside.

He's still breathing.

Please do something about it.

Joon-seo!

Joon-seo!

Please lay something on the ground.
Quickly!

Joon-seo.

His breathing is getting weak.

His vomit must have blocked his airway.

Even inside his nose is blocked.

We need to make him vomit.

He's unconscious,
so he can't move voluntarily.

I think I should do a tracheostomy.

If I don't do it within two to
three minutes, it may cause brain damage.

Can you please prepare things quickly?

It's okay whether it's a knife
or a box cutter.

Anything like a needle, thread,
disinfectant, handkerchief and the like.

Quickly!

Let me have a look. Joon-seo.

I'll save you. I promise.

Dr. Han.

Listen carefully.
You need to help me from now on.

You need to do as I tell you.
Do you get it?

Disinfect your hands first.

Pour it on my hands.

Wipe off the blood, please.

Do it without touching the open wound!

Press it down with the other hand.

Not too hard,

but as if you're placing your hand
on it lightly.

Hold it tight. Do you get it?

I got it.

Dr. Han.

You're too late.

Good job!

Doctor Kang.

I've called the ambulance.

Thank you.

-Please take care of him.
-We will.

Wow. It's over.

Good job!

You were really funny earlier.

What are you talking about?

You talked like a girl.

"Dr. Han, please do something."

"Do something about it."

That's so funny.

What should I do when it's so urgent?

Sure.

That's really addictive.

"Do something about it."

I'll spread the word.

"Do something. Do something..."

I'm sorry.

-I'm starving.
-I'm so hungry.

Oh, isn't it the road view car?

Isn't it the one? Isn't it?

She's 23 years old.

She's single and a waitress.

I know you are not the criminal.

So, can you wait just a little bit longer?

I swear on my honor as a doctor

that I'll find the evidence
that you are innocent...

If they sold their organs,

shouldn't there be some scars?

Take a good look at my face.

You'll never know when I'll get fired.

Can you hear me?

Yu-na Lee.

Just tell me how you ended up like this.

Dr. Young-chul Heo.

You're under arrest for engaging
in illegal medical practice.

Good job, Ms. Terminator!
