Kairos (2020): Season 1, Episode 13 - Episode #1.13 - full transcript

Get closer.

Come on.

You need to make sure your body is warm enough...

to not get hurt on duty.

Goodness, you've raised one great son.

He'd want to go out and have fun, but he's here working with his dad.

I heard you did very well on your last test too.

Goodness, he kept showing off how good you were...

That was unnecessary. I didn't do that.

Dad, may I use the restroom?

- It's all the way inside. - Okay.



Your son is tall and handsome.

Guys like you who only have a daughter have no idea...

how reassuring it is to have him.

Goodness, I wouldn't change a truck full of those huge boys...

for my daughter.

My gosh.

(Restroom)

Hey, what's that?

You always say you have no money. You got a new watch?

This thing?

Sung Jae got it for us as our wedding anniversary gift.

Jealous?

Did we get new materials early this morning?

I saw Lee come in with some materials late last night.



What? We'll have to check.

Let's see...

Gosh, I need to take a leak too.

Stop drinking so much water.

- The weather seems colder today. - Tell me about it.

- My gosh. - Goodness.

Hey, Lee!

What's with him?

Help...

Help... Help me.

How... How long...

has it been?

I don't know.

I must survive.

I can't die here...

and leave my daughter behind.

Sir, don't talk.

Let's...

Let's get out of here alive.

Sir.

Sir.

Sir, are you asleep?

You shouldn't fall asleep.

How old...

is your daughter?

Seven.

This is her.

If you see her, tell her...

that I love her so much.

Hang in there.

You must survive...

and...

I will survive.

I won't die.

I won't give in.

I will...

Hey, lift this!

Lift it up!

Hey, don't you hear a sound?

- Do you hear that? - Where is it coming from?

Over here!

Sir...

(Memorial Altar for Victims of the Taejung Town Collapse)

Eat slowly.

Thank you.

Do you...

miss your dad?

You know what?

You shouldn't grow up...

and become like your dad.

Why not?

I love my dad.

Do you know why he died?

Because he was poor and incompetent.

That's why he had to work like a dog and die in vain.

Misfortunes only come to those who are poor and weak.

People who are weak, incompetent,

and poor...

should never live.

This was his.

Then...

were you the one who gave me this watch?

Were you...

that girl?

Do you see the time?

So this was it.

This was why those things...

happened to us.

Do you remember everything?

I do.

Everything you had said back at the police station...

was true.

Is it really true that we're connected...

to one month in the future?

Check for yourself.

(Kim Seo Jin)

Ms. Han.

Hello? Ms. Han.

Are you...

me?

Do you perhaps know my father?

- Were you the one? - Are you...

me?

Yes, I'm Kim Seo Jin.

The date here...

is October 23.

Listen carefully. On October 9,

Da Bin and Hyun Chae will die in a car accident.

Then on October 20, Ms. Han will be murdered.

- Who on earth will do that? - It's Lee Taek Gyu.

But the real mastermind...

is someone else.

But the real mastermind is someone else.

Yes, it's the person you're thinking of right now.

If we don't stop him, this will happen again.

But we don't have enough time until the accident...

to stop Chairman Yu.

Do you think you can digest everything that you heard right now?

Hyun Chae, Da Bin,

and even you will die?

Tell me the time, place, details of the accident,

and everything that my future self knows.

Tell me everything.

There were no CCTV cameras or witnesses on that road.

Lee Taek Gyu hit the car you were all riding in.

Your wife and your daughter lost their lives.

The police think you were trying to commit suicide with them.

Mr. Lee is Chairman Yu's henchman.

He probably did it to conceal the truth...

regarding the collapse of Taejung Town.

I don't remember everything related to Mr. Lee just yet,

but the overall picture was what I had imagined.

Perhaps, I was finally rescued...

in order to reveal the truth.

And...

you're also the last gift my dad had given me.

Now,

what do you need me to do?

Mr. Kim.

I've found a temporary place where you can stay.

I've hired medical staff that'll monitor your condition,

so you won't have to worry.

Thank you. I'll take good care of her.

You should worry more about yourself.

Nothing will get done if you're arrested.

I won't let that happen until Chairman Yu is brought down.

My phone will stay off to avoid being traced.

If anything happens, please contact Mr. Im.

Thank you for everything. You should rest now.

Ms. Kwak, let's go.

I'm grateful for all your hard work.

Don't mention it.

How much of it do you know?

I know that Mr. Kim...

will bring Ae Ri back to life.

Thank you.

Soo Jung will be here soon.

We'll take turns staying with you, so relax and rest.

(Kairos)

(Episode 13)

Hello?

Ms. Kwak, this is Kim Jin Ho.

Mr. Kim, are you all right?

Yes, I am.

Once Kim Seo Jin said that Chairman Yu was after me,

I discarded my phone and went into hiding.

I'm glad.

I read the article regarding your daughter.

You told me, right?

If anything happened to you or your daughter,

what you gave me...

Anyway, what now?

I'd like that back now.

Where are we regarding Kim Seo Jin's whereabouts?

We pinged his phone for about a minute last night,

but that was all.

Where was the phone turned on?

We checked it out but to no avail.

He might get sloppy again, so keep an eye out.

- Got it. - Mr. Park!

Mr. Seo.

Has Kim Seo Jin been in contact with you?

That's what I'd like to ask.

When will you locate him?

We've been searching,

but his phone and credit card hasn't been used.

So it could stay this way?

At least send out an APB.

We're already on it.

However, checkpoints won't be of use...

unless Kim Seo Jin makes a move.

But we're running out of time!

What do you mean by that?

Well,

it's not good to drag it out.

One can only stay hidden well with another's help.

Could there be anyone who would help him?

I'm not sure.

About Ms. Han Ae Ri who was murdered recently.

The young woman who was charged...

with attempted kidnapping of Mr. Kim's daughter?

Where's her mother?

Why do you ask?

Does this have something to do with Mr. Kim?

No.

Just let me know if you find anything.

(Violent Crimes Team 1)

That request sure sounded like an order.

He's probably on edge with what's going on at work,

so just let it slide, sir.

(Kangil Police Station)

The one who shares Kim Seo Jin's goal.

The one most likely to help him.

It has to be Kwak Song Ja.

Mr. Kim, it's Im Geon Wook.

Did something happen to Ms. Kwak?

Kim Jin Ho contacted her.

He'll personally bring the package to her.

When should I be there?

I'll call the motel as soon as the package arrives.

The phone in here works, right?

Yes.

This must be uncomfortable for you.

Still, stay hidden and don't go anywhere.

I'll get you whatever you need.

Thank you.

I apologize...

for the misunderstanding and my inconsiderate behaviour.

That was wrong of me.

We won't let her anywhere near you again,

so please forgive her just this once.

There's no need for you to plead her case.

The law will take care of it.

I know this will sound like an excuse,

but I had no idea that I had been in contact with Ms. Han.

Just keep the promise you made...

about saving her.

Now, what do you need me to do?

We need to bring down Chairman Yu.

And in order to do so, we need evidence.

I must stop Lee Taek Gyu first.

Doing so will buy me some time...

to find definite evidence that'll bring Chairman Yu down.

How can you possibly stop Lee Taek Gyu?

In a previous timeline,

he hired Kim Jin Ho to kidnap Da Bin...

and then murdered Kim Jin Ho and my mom,

but that never ended up happening again.

He's probably the one who kills me in a month,

but that hasn't happened.

I know a way to remove Lee Taek Gyu.

Chairman Yu probably believes...

that I or your mom will contact Kim Jin Ho.

We'll set up a false hideout for him...

and get Chairman Yu to make a move.

Or I could receive the evidence from Kim Jin Ho and...

No, we can't put Kim Jin Ho in danger again.

I'll protect him any way I can.

The evidence Chairman Yu is after.

My mom has had it for a long time.

So I'll do it.

Are you saying...

you'll meet with Lee Taek Gyu?

Once Chairman Yu finds out that my mom gave me the evidence,

he'll send Lee Taek Gyu after me.

If all goes well, we might be able to bring down Chairman Yu too.

- No way. - I'll die in a month at this rate.

It's only fitting that I do it.

That's not the same. This is far more dangerous.

Tell me where Lee Taek Gyu is.

I'll meet with him.

Look, Ms. Han.

What happens in the future...

can be changed by us in this timeline,

but what happens here will be permanent.

It can't be reversed or stopped.

I'm more...

than determined.

Darn it.

Hello?

This is Han Ae Ri.

(Chairman Yu Seo Il)

- Hello? - Mr. Yu.

Han Ae Ri contacted me a moment ago.

What did she say?

What you want from my mother is currently in my hands.

We should meet.

I'll hand it over,

so stop harassing my mother.

Meet with her. The package should be verified.

And how should it be verified?

(Chairman Yu Seo Il)

Hello?

Bring the thing.

Don't try to do anything funny. Come out quietly, alone.

Let's meet.

I'll decide the time and place.

Who are you seeing?

Who were you talking to?

Why should you do that?

After all, your mother came back,

and you had to get detained to stop Da Bin from getting abducted.

It's all over. Why do you have to see Lee Taek Gyu again?

All of the strange things and absurd situations we went through...

aren't over yet.

We have to resolve the fundamental reason.

Will something happen to your mother again?

Where are you seeing him, and what's your plan?

- What? - We better be prepared this time.

We won't make another mistake.

Are you going to help me?

It's not like you'll stop if I ask you.

I won't let anything happen to you.

Mom.

Soo Jung, it's you.

It must be so much work for all of you.

I brought your favourite side dishes.

- Excuse me. - Hello.

My relative is staying here. Could you tell me which unit it is?

What's your relative's name?

Kwak Song Ja. Ms. Kwak Song Ja.

Who is it?

(Kwak Song Ja)

(No results.)

There's no one here under that name.

Then what about Kim Seo Jin?

Mr. Kim Seo Jin.

(Kim Seo Jin)

(No results.)

I couldn't find Mr. Kim Seo Jin either.

Thank you.

Here.

What's your plan now?

I'll give it to Mr. Kim Seo Jin.

Yes, I also believe he could...

expose the truth as it is.

But if your daughter passed away,

shouldn't you report them to the prosecution or to a reporter?

I can't trust the police or the prosecution anymore.

This is the only way I can save my daughter.

- What? What do you mean? - Mr. Kim, you would do...

everything you can for Ji Ah, can't you?

I feel that way too.

I'll do anything and everything

to save my daughter.

I see.

You should look after your health first.

If there's anything I can do to help,

let me know anytime.

Okay. Goodbye, then.

- Hello? - Sir, this is the lobby.

There's a call for you saying your order has arrived for pick up.

The caller said you'll know.

All right.

Hello? Mr. Park, this is Seo Do Kyun.

It's Kim Seo Jin. I just saw him.

Is that you, Soo Jung?

Stop!

Mr. Park, in here.

Mr. Kim!

He must have fled.

Mr. Park, I found a bloodstain.

He couldn't have gone far.

Yoon, check the CCTV.

- Yes, sir. - Choi, downstairs.

- Kang, you're coming up with me. - Yes, sir.

Check if there's any blood in front of the elevators.

Yes, sir.

Ms. Kwak. Ms. Kwak?

Wake up. Wake up!

Kim Seo Jin! Don't move!

Hands in the air.

Hands in the air!

Walk out.

Kang, go.

Mr. Kim Seo Jin, you're under emergency arrest for parricide.

You may consult an attorney, choose to remain silent,

and defend yourself.

But first, please get her to a hospital first.

Please get an ambulance.

She's unconscious.

Get an ambulance.

(Kim Seo Jin)

(Detention Cell 3)

The phone is turned off. Please leave a message...

(Kim Seo Jin)

I'm on my way to see your mother to get the evidence.

(Kim Seo Jin)

Why can't I reach you again?

Is something going on?

Did you see my mom?

Is the evidence solid?

What's it about?

I'm frustrated to death, so text me when you get this.

Please.

Your message has been recorded.

- Ae Ri. - You're here.

How did you find this place?

Mr. Kim did.

How can you trust him?

What if he betrays you again?

Mr. Im, I heard you'll be helping us.

If you're going to betray her again, you can stop this now.

I'm sorry about that time.

I'm in the process of getting my memories back.

That won't happen again from now on.

I'll be fine this time. Don't worry.

But I can't reach you who's living a month ahead.

Do you think something happened?

I wonder.

The last text said he's on his way to get the evidence from my mom.

It'd be better if I found out...

what the evidence is about before I see Lee Taek Gyu tomorrow.

But first, let's figure out what we'll do tomorrow.

This way.

Darn it.

First off, come into this container with him.

Over there, there,

and right here, I'll put some cameras up.

I'll do anything to make him believe I have the evidence.

Mr. Im, you and I must have the entire situation under control.

Then I'll be nearby.

And...

take this.

A location tracker?

Just in case. Keep it with you.

We have to make sure we get something this time.

So even if it looks like I may fall in danger,

you can't make a rash move.

Do you have to take things this far?

Nineteen years ago,

I lived...

thanks to Ms. Han's father.

He gave up the last bit of water...

for me.

If it hadn't been for him,

I would've died back then.

I will not...

let her fall in danger.

Let's talk inside.

What?

Let's go somewhere else. There's someone I need you to meet.

- Who is it? - You'll see when you get there.

(Share: Send file)

(Kim Seo Jin)

(Sending file)

(Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency)

(Push up to change the speed.)

I just sent you a video. Did you see it?

- What should we do now? - Get behind them, Mr. Im.

I'll look at her tracking device and follow after with the police.

Okay, I'll get behind them.

Stop. Lee Taek Gyu.

He was my personal assistant.

Call Yujung Constructions and ask...

- for his ID number. - Yes, sir.

Ms. Han is in danger.

Find his ID number and let's go.

Yes, sir.

Sit down.

Was your trip here okay?

All right. What is this that you have?

I heard you had evidence that I was evil.

I'm sure you know better than I do.

You tormented my mom all along because of it.

I never expected to see you in person.

You must be afraid of that evidence.

Don't be absurd.

At times in life,

the mistakes you weren't aware of could bring you down.

One small hole...

in a tent or a big building could bring it down.

I guess you couldn't see that hole 19 years ago.

A mistake you weren't aware of?

Don't lie.

You knew the truth about the collapse,

yet you remained silent.

All those people lost their lives because of you.

You knew about the dangers yet didn't stop the construction.

Is that what the evidence you have is saying?

That I didn't stop it?

I have proof that Yujung is just as responsible...

as Banyoung is regarding that incident.

It seems like we have a big misunderstanding here.

I've never thought that I wasn't responsible for it.

I've lived my entire life remembering that responsibility...

and with a sense of duty.

Don't be hypocritical.

I lost my father because of you.

You may have deceived the world with your hypocrisy and charade.

But it's all over now.

I'll take that rudeness of yours...

as my punishment.

- Escort her back home. - Yes, sir.

He told me to escort you.

I'm going by myself.

That's what you'd like to think.

You scumbag!

Mr. Im!

Mr. Im, wake up. Are you okay?

Hurry. Save Ae Ri first.

Lee Taek Gyu has her.

Find out his license plate number...

- and put out an APB. - Yes, sir.

We need an ambulance here now.

- Let's go. - Okay.

Will we be able to find her?

The CCTV footage is being sent to our servers in real time.

Once we find the plate number, we'll know where he went.

Let me go with you.

Don't be ridiculous.

Hand him over when the ambulance comes.

Detective Choi.

Mr. Im, hang in there.

The ambulance is on its way. Please take care of him.

Sure.

Right before the crash,

we found out that you stepped on the gas.

And we found substances from your sleeping pill...

in Ms. Kang Hyun Chae and Da Bin's blood.

Are you going to remain silent?

All the evidence is pointing to you as the suspect.

If you're innocent, say something. That way, we can investigate.

Come on.

And Ms. Kwak Song Ja...

Is she okay?

She's in the ICU right now.

Why did you meet with her?

Why did you meet the mother of the woman...

who tried to kidnap your daughter?

I plead the Fifth. No matter what I say,

you won't believe me.

(Safe Country, Trustworthy Police)

Mr. Park.

Did you catch Director Kim?

Yes. It's all thanks to you.

By the way, how did you know that he'd be there?

I found out by accident while searching for Ms. Kwak.

Okay. I see.

If necessary,

we may ask you to come in and give your testimony.

- Sure. - Thank you.

By the way,

did you find his phone?

Yes, it's in the evidence room.

Why do you ask?

It's nothing. Please let me know if you need my testimony.

Sure.

What should we do about her?

It's all right. It'll be all right.

She's stronger than we give her credit for.

(Route 42)

We lost the car. I repeat, we lost the car.

Retrace the vehicle, please.

What's going on?

We lost track of the car.

He must've taken a route without any CCTV cameras.

Then, what now?

We'll have to look for him ourselves.

It seems like he's taking her to a specific location.

- Detective Lee! - Coming, sir.

Please head home and wait.

Tell me the time, place, details of the accident,

and everything that my future self knows.

Tell me everything.

There were no CCTV cameras or witnesses on that road.

Lee Taek Gyu hit the car you were all riding in.

The accident site is at...

391 Hwahwi-ro, Ganddong-myeon, Gangneung, Gangwon Province.

I think I know.

Where Lee Taek Gyu went, I mean.

There's a place he scouted out that has no cameras in the vicinity.

This will be the last time.

(Restricted access only)

You're up already?

It would've been better to stay asleep.

That way, it wouldn't be as scary or painful.

I won't die in your hands.

I don't intend to get blood on my hands.

Consider this as my last gift to you.

Ms. Han!

Ms. Han, wake up.

Ms. Han!

Get Lee Taek Gyu.

Get him...

Ms. Han? Ms. Han!

Darn it.

(Evidence: Knife)

(Detective Park Ho Young, Evidence: Cellphone)

- Right. - Sit down, will you?

I didn't do it!

(Violent Crimes Team 2, Violent Crimes Team 1)

Like I said, I haven't seen him before.

Just sit down, will you?

All right, now answer my questions.

Darn it.

- I'm here to relieve you. - Got it.

- Have a good one. - Thanks.

You're under arrest for kidnapping and attempted murder.

You have the right to an attorney.

Let go of me!

Da Bin...

Dad?

I'm right here.

Don't cry, Dad.

Are you hurt anywhere?

No, I'm not hurt.

I'm relieved.

I'm glad.

What's wrong?

Honey.

I'm glad as long as you're alive.

Don't die.

Ms. Han, are you okay?

Hyun Chae and Da Bin are alive.

And I'm no longer being chased by the police.

Thank you.

Are you feeling better?

Are you unwell?

No, I'm okay.

Did you have a nightmare?

I guess so, but I'm fine now.

I'll go.

What are you doing?

Have you gone insane?

Hyun Chae, is it you?

It is, right?

Are you drunk? This is unlike you.

Go. Hurry.

As long as you're alive, I'm okay.

Everything is okay now.

Go. We'll talk tomorrow.

As long as you're alive, I'm okay. Everything is okay now.

I'm glad as long as you're alive. Don't die.

Where are you going?

I need to head out for a bit.

Ms. Han.

Ms. Han, it's me, Seo Jin.

(Contacts)

(Han Ae Ri)

The number you have called is not in service.

Please check the number...

(Kim Seo Jin)

Mr. Im, this is Kim Seo Jin.

I'm in front of Ms. Han's house, but no one seems to be home.

Last month, she got Lee Taek Gyu.

Both my daughter and my wife are alive.

Everything has changed.

Then why...

Why is Ae Ri still dead?

What did you say?

Ae Ri is still dead,

and her mom is in the ICU.

Does that mean...

Lee Taek Gyu wasn't the killer?

You promised to save her!

(Report on the Cause of the Taejung Town Collapse)

(Boring Technique, Boring Types)

Mr. Seo.

What do you think will happen...

if the structure wasn't reinforced...

while constructing a building in a gneissic area...

to help the building withstand earth and water pressure?

It'll most likely collapse.

And if the construction was processed despite knowing this fact,

what could the reasons be?

What is this thing that Mr. Kim Jin Ho has...

for them to keep doing this?

We can only catch Chairman Yu if we have that file.

Excuse me. Do you know where building 30-29 is?

You and Da Bin were going to run away without me.

Explain this to me. I said, explain this!

Wake up. Don't fool yourself and think that you're a victim...

when you're just a homewrecker who is threatening me.

I was first.

Cut this nonsense and give me the file.

Hey!

A scumbag like you should've died long ago!

Let's put an end to our ill-fated relationship!

- Help me. - You little...
