Live (2018–…): Season 1, Episode 14 - Episode #1.14 - full transcript

CHARACTERS AND PLACES ASSOCIATED
IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTIONAL

Mr. Lee Sam-bo. Fail.

Dad.

Can I study a little longer
before going back to Korea?

I want to get a doctorate,

but I can't do anything
if I go back like this.

What are you doing in the ladies' room?

What?

I'm sorry.

Yes!

If only I can run across the dry sky



What's wrong with him?

-And if only I can be in your arms
-You must be out of your mind.

-I don't care
-You're getting an award, aren't you?

-If my body breaks apart
-I've gotten one too.

Hey! You should be
more passionate like me.

I'm the best
Probationary Patrol Officer after all.

Why is it you?

It could be me.

It's not that I'm doing nothing.

I'll run into your heart

Hye-ri, you could win a prize. Cheer up.

You're too afraid to drive an excavator.

How did you become a cop to begin with?

Driving an excavator



is nothing like being a cop.

What's the difference?

Both require you to be gutsy.

He and I've done everything

to prepare for retirement in our 50s.
We got the licenses

to be a real estate agent, a cook,
and even an owner-cabdriver.

That's why we can work
even after retirement.

Why are you preparing just before
your retirement? How lazy.

Stop it.

It's not that I'm lazy.

He just focused on his work.

Sam-bo, you're a real cop.

Please stop daunting him.

Let me fill your glass.

All right.

SU-MAN

Is Su-man not here?

Su-man, what are you not coming?

The thing is I'm on a night shift today.

I'm sorry. You guys have fun.

Hang on.

Sir, how may I help you?

The driver from a chauffeur service
pulled my car over here.

Park it.

We miss you, Lieutenant Min.

Lieutenant Min, just come join us.

Lieutenant Min! Lieutenant Min!

We miss you,

-Lieutenant Min!
-I'm sorry. I have to go.

Sir.

I'm afraid I can't drive a foreign car.

I once drove your car and scratched it,

so I had to pay for it.

I'm sorry.

God damn it!

I'm drunk. How can I drive?

I don't know. I don't care.

Excuse me.

Don't you feel sorry
for Lieutenant Min though?

I know.

He just punched the criminal
who insisted he's innocent

after hitting a family
and running away in a car accident.

But it led to police brutality,
and he got fired.

He hasn't even paid off

the settlement money
for the criminal and civil cases

of police brutality yet.

His retirement pension was cut in half
because he was fired.

He's still repaying the bank loan
for the settlement money.

Does he stay in touch
with his wife and children?

The media reported
the case as police violence,

so his family was deeply hurt.

That's why he's divorced and lives alone.

That's so frustrating.
Let's stop talking about it.

Let's just drink.

All right. Cheers!

Hey, why are you drinking coke?

Everyone, I recently felt the desire
to live a long life.

Please forgive me.

All right. Cheers for the police!

-Cheers!
-Cheers!

EPISODE 14

This is nice.

Someone's inside, right?

Answer me.

Anyone inside?

Sergeant Kang, Sergeant Kang!

Okay, take her to a hospital immediately.

-Open the door.
-I heard you.

I'll be there right after work.

I'm at the scene now.

What's going on?

Jeong-o, what's the matter?

Please wait outside.

Okay.

I'll be right outside.

Call me if you need me.

Hey, why...

Why are you sitting on the floor?

I got

my period out of the blue
and started feeling dizzy.

But I don't have any pads.

I don't have money to buy them.

Could you buy one for me?

Are you...

really okay?

I'm just on my period, that's all.

Officer Han, is everything okay?

Yes, sir.

PARK EUN-BI

Thank you.

Just a second.

You have blood on your skirt.

Aren't there menstrual pads you can use
at the infirmary?

I feel bad about using them every month.

I don't think the nurse likes it.

Go back to your classroom now.

You know that there's a situation, right?

It's nothing serious.
Please radio the team.

She's the girl
Captain An was looking for earlier,

Park Eun-bi.

The potential rape case at Mahyeon High.
The situation is over now.

We tracked the IP address

and caught the suspect
at an internet cafe near the school.

The situation is over.

Officers who are at the scene...

The situation is over now, right?

-Yes.
-Officers from Hongil Patrol Division,

the principal would like
to thank you in person.

Please come to the main meeting room
on the second floor.

-We don't have time for that.
-The principal would like to thank you.

-The perp is a weirdo.
-Please come to the second floor.

Why did he post about planning
to rape someone just for fun?

What a psycho.

He'll be charged with intimidation
and obstruction of business.

The culprit in a similar case
got eight months of jail time.

That's great.
He needs to learn what the law can do.

THE 25TH PARENTS' MEETING

I'm truly relieved that

the situation got resolved
without anything happening.

We owe it all to the help we received
from the police officers here.

Gosh, this is so annoying.

We have a lot to do. Can't we just leave?

-This is part of our job. Be quiet.
-Thank you so much.

Had he not been caught...

My gosh, even just the thought
makes me shudder.

Totally.

It would've brought disgrace
on our great school.

By the way,
what kind of support can we provide

to the school as parents
in order to prevent sexual assault?

Receiving the training
in our sexual assault prevention program,

which is recommended
by the Ministry of Education,

will definitely be helpful.

I heard that some schools
neglect sex education

because they're so focused
on the college entrance exam.

Sex education is necessary
for prevention of--

What does that have to do
with preventing sexual assault?

I think we should raise money
to install security cameras

in and outside of the school.
That will be a lot more effective.

-Definitely.
-I totally agree.

Why bother asking
if they're not even going to listen?

-Great idea.
-It's such a good idea.

In my opinion...

Sexual assault prevention programs

and sex education taught in schools
are the most effective way to prevent it.

Sex crimes don't only occur
outside the school.

They can also happen
inside the school anytime.

-"Inside the school"?
-"Inside the school"?

-That's absurd.
-What's she talking about?

Among all middle and high school students,
about 10 percent of boys

and five percent of girls
have sexual experiences.

And a high percentage of them

experience pregnancy and abortion.

Well, we're discussing how we can
prevent sexual assault.

Why is she talking about abortion?
Gosh, that's so horrible.

-My goodness.
-What's her problem?

You can't prevent sexual violence

by telling girls not to stay out late,
not to wear short skirts,

and not to wear makeup.

You also can't prevent it

by just being mindful of rapists,
like the one we caught last week.

I can happen in a relationship,
in families,

and even between classmates.

-Is she saying our children can do that?
-What's she saying now?

Do you think that our children
are criminals or what?

But schools don't provide systematic
sex education programs to their students--

Look.

Miss.

We want to ask you police officers

about more practical ways
to prevent sexual crimes.

For example, can police officers
be stationed at the school?

Sex education, my foot.

Kids can learn those things
from the Internet.

That's enough, Jeong-o.

Such information isn't organized
systematically, and it's often incorrect.

The school must educate students
on contraception methods,

how to use a condom,
and sexual etiquettes.

Students can also have discussions on
whether they agree with abortion or not.

Sex education is necessary.

-She's spewing total nonsense.
-I'm speechless.

And if you'd like to do

something for students,

you can think about installing
a machine that gives out pads for free.

for students from low-income families
instead of putting up security cameras--

Who can't afford to buy
menstrual pads these days?

-Goodness.
-What a joke.

It's been on the news,

and there are many people like that
around us.

Considering our culture,
it's hard to provide

practical sex education programs

where we can give out free condoms
at school, but--

-"Free condoms"?
-Is she out of her mind?

Look, are you suggesting that
the school should give out condoms?

Are you saying the school
should encourage them to have sex or what?

That's not what she meant.

In other countries, such proactive--

Condoms won't encourage
students to have sex.

In fact, they prevent STDs
and many crimes such as illegal abortion.

I think that

is a lot more practical and effective
than installing security cameras.

-Goodness.
-What the heck is wrong with her?

-What's with her?
-That was way out of line.

How dare she say that our kids
might get an abortion and need condoms?

-They're here to study.
-Teacher.

Why does the school
need to give out condoms?

-Exactly.
-Code Zero.

A robbery case at Hongan 3-dong 167.

-We have the suspect.
-We have to go.

A neighbor called it in.
Officers, please respond.

I have colorectal cancer.

According to my CT scan and MRI result,

the doctor thinks stage two or three.

He won't know

until he opens me up for operation.

-Did you request a medical leave?
-Yes.

It was accepted today.

I have to prepare
for my surgery starting tomorrow.

I haven't

been able to tell my team yet.

We're always so busy.

I wanted to ask.

Are you in complete remission?

It's

been about seven years.

Well...

Last week, I had a relapse.

It's nothing serious.

It can be treated with medication.

My patrol division
is just as busy as yours

which is why

I asked to be transferred as
police corporal at Bomun.

I heard you asked
to be transferred there too,

so I came by to ask
if you could let me have the spot.

I guess I can't.

Your situation is just as bad.

Anyway, I'll get going.

Sir.

Sir?

Sir.

We'll talk again soon. Bye.

-Good night.
-Take care, sir.

Where's Jeong-o?

She's upstairs with Captain Eun.

-We're back.
-We're back.

No one's here.

Sang-su,

-how are Jeong-o's living conditions?
-Sorry?

Will she be okay if she gets fired?

-Why...
-Ask her

and get back to me on it.

I'm off.

-Good night.
-See you tomorrow.

Good night, sir.

-What was that about?
-Tell me.

Why can't you apologize?

I didn't do anything wrong
that I need to apologize for.

Why mention condoms at a school?

A parent is filing
a complaint against you.

I'm not asking you to apologize for me,
but for you.

You're a probationary officer. Do you
think you'll be able to become a cop then?

During my time here,

I have proved myself as a cop.

Why would a complaint ruin my chances?

Complaints dictate our careers
because we're powerless.

It's like getting convicted.
It doesn't make sense, right?

It's unfair, but that's our reality.

Twelve parents in total
are filing complaints against you.

How could you suggest

such inappropriate things like
giving students condoms

and debating about abortion at a school?

They're saying you insulted the students.

They felt like you were accusing
their children of becoming

potential predators by mentioning
sexual assault between students.

You!

I begged the principal

and got you the chance to apologize
before they file the complaint,

so apologize.

I never insulted the students.

The parents asked how they could
help prevent sexual assaults,

so I told them my opinion

on what the best course of action is.

Let them file the complaint.
I'll gladly be investigated.

Jeong-o, wait. Jeong-o!

How can you just sit there and eat?

If she receives a complaint,

does it hurt the division's performance?

In her case,

if she ends up being investigated
after her incident with the taser gun,

she might

not make it onto the force. Get it?

She studied hard to get here,

but this might ruin all of her chances.
Get it?

Apologize to the parents.

Everyone at the division agrees.

I don't think

that what you said was wrong.

But formal complaints are messy.

You'll be questioned by Internal Affairs
all the time

and it'll hurt your career.

We're only probationary officers.

So apologize.

At least for mentioning
condoms and abortion.

You know how Korean parents are.

-They think they're always right.
-This time,

I'm right though.

Jeong-o, don't be so stubborn.

We're cops, not teachers.

How sex education is taught in schools,

and how parents raise their children

are not a part of our job description.

Why can't you see that?

Those ladies said there's no need for you
to worry about their children.

It happened to me

so who says it won't happen to their kids?

How can they be sure?

When I was in grade 10,

I was raped

at a mountain behind my school.

After the assault,

I didn't know what actions to take.

I didn't know about
emergency contraceptive pills,

so I ended up

getting an illegal abortion.

Those who assaulted me

were students at my school.

What happened to me

can happen to anyone.

I won't apologize

because I'm right this time.

Patrol 21, Patrol 21.

We're at the motorcycle
and car collision site.

Patrol 21, Patrol 21.

We're at the collision site.

Take out the cones and set up a perimeter.

We don't want a secondary accident.

Why are we the only ones here?

Where is the traffic police?

They're wrapping up
a five-car pile-up in Mapo.

They'll be there soon.
Paramedics are on their way.

Please step inside the coned area.
It's dangerous.

Sir, I think the motorcyclist is dead.

I think he smashed his head.

He's not moving.

He's dead. He must be dead.

This is the sedan
and motorcycle collision site.

The motorcyclist

is dead.

I'm a policeman. Are you awake?

Hang in there.
An ambulance will be here soon.

I want to get you out of the car,

but that could do you more harm.

Bear with me.

Officer Song, set out the traffic cones.

More cars could run into us.

Officer Song, what are you doing?

Hey.

What's wrong with you?

Hye-ri.

Hye-ri.

Wake up.

What do you mean the assistant chief
requested a transfer?

HEAD OF DIVISION

Tell me everything you know in detail.

From the beginning.

Let go.

Let go!

What is it now? My shift's almost over.

Hello, everyone.

-You had a long shift?
-Yes.

We'll get changed quickly.

Okay.

Can you answer questions?

Or will you sleep it off
and talk to us tomorrow?

I'll answer questions.

Come here, then.

Sit still, will you?

This is crazy.

We should be home by now.

Why did you two fight?

I was drinking,
and that asshole punched me first!

You slept with my wife!

I'll kill you!

What's wrong with you?

-My goodness.
-Stop it.

-I'll put cuffs on your ankles.
-Get off me!

Are you okay?

Are you okay?

Are you okay?

Damn it.

Dial 911! Dial 911!

What's wrong?

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Can I come in?

I need to go home.

I have nothing to say.

Why are you taking your uniform?

To wash it at home.

Which home?

My Daejeon home.

You work tomorrow.
Why are you going to Daejeon?

I applied for a day off.

Were you very shocked?

I need to change.

Okay. Get some rest.

But

you must come back.

Okay?

CONTACTS

HAN JEONG-O

SENIOR CHOI MYEONG-HO

It's Jeong-o.

Go ahead.

I'm

near the station.

If I come to where you live,

can we meet up?

Right now,

I want to be alone.

Jeong-o.

Yes?

Are you

really okay?

Answer me.

Are you

okay?

Sorry.

I want to say I'm okay,

but I'm not.

I have to go.

Go away, Sang-su.

HAN JEONG-O

I said go away.

What do you want?

What are you doing?

We work tomorrow.

You can't drink the night before.
I'm getting rid of it all.

Get out.

I said get out.

So you're not going to leave?

Then I will.

I'll do it. You must be exhausted.

Why do more work when you worked all day?

Just let me do it.
You should take a nap, Dad.

Let's do it together.

Go in, please. I said I'll do it.

Go in and get more sleep.

Then just rinse this and go to bed, okay?

I'll take care of the rest later.

Okay?

Sang-su.

Did you make enough for me?

You can eat if you want.

You're crazy.

Do you live here now or what?

You sleep here whenever you want.

Nothing happened.

You idiot.

How is that possible?
Jeong-o is so attractive.

Is there something wrong with you?

Do you feel a little weak down there
or what?

Stop it, Mom.

Hey,
don't seduce him with that smile of yours.

Or just date him.

Make up your mind, will you?

Stop spewing nonsense
and just go to work. Go on.

Jeong-o, there are pickles inside
that thing. It's good with rice.

Try it. And...

can you just let
Sang-su live here with you?

-Just date him. Please? Jeong-o.
-Gosh, stop.

-You don't need to look far. Jeong-o!
-Jeez.

Give me a kiss.

Are we good now? Then go.

She won't like me if she thinks
that I'm a mama's boy. Leave, please.

Gosh, you're so picky.

Guys, be careful as always, okay?

Be safe! Your safety comes first!
Be safe...

Jeez, seriously.

My mom is really something.

Jeong-o.

Can you please
just let Sang-su move in with you?

I'll be good to you. Jeong-o, please!

You idiot.

-Do you want fried eggs?
-Sure.

So?

What happened to those punks?

I don't know.

On the day of,

I was too flustered,
so I couldn't report it to the police.

And after that,

I didn't even want to think about it.

I was afraid too.

You said they were guys at your school.

It's just my guess.

I heard them say this

as they were abandoning me in the forest.

"She's Han Jeong-o
from class 6 grade 10, right?"

After that incident,

I kept missing school
because I was scared.

Then, I transferred schools.

Is that why you broke up with Da-yeong?

Han-pyo said he went to school with you.

He was friends with your ex,
Jeong Da-yeong.

Da-yeong was such a sweet guy.

I really liked him.

LIEUTENANT OH YANG-CHON

Han Jeong-o speaking.

What are you going to do
about the complaint?

Are you going to apologize or not?

I don't want to apologize, sir.

Jeong-o.

I won't apologize to the parents.

Shall we go for a run?

Let's go.

Jeong-o, let's go for a run.

Come on.

Jeong-o, Jeong-o.

Are you taking a shower? Jeong-o!

Did you fall down?

Hey, what on earth happened?

Jeong-o.

Jeong-o.

Yesterday and today,

after hearing my story,

you haven't said anything

or tried to comfort me.

You heard about everything.

How did that make you feel?

I'm sad.

I'm so sad

that I can't say anything.

I want to tell you that I'm proud of you,

that it must have been hard,

that I'm proud
of how you handled yourself.

But I'm too sad to say anything.

Sang-su.

I feel so relieved now.

I guess

I felt that it was unfair

that I had to keep it all inside

without telling anyone.

I guess I wanted to tell someone

and receive consolation.

I'm so glad I told you.

A huge weight has been
lifted off my chest.

I feel much better.

Dad, look at this.

It's used,

but it works fine.

Maybe I should've gotten a new one.

Are you sick?

You didn't eat your porridge.

I told you to eat
while I went to buy a TV.

You have a fever.

Dad, sit up.

Sit up. Let's go to the doctor's.

Put this on. We're going to the doctor's.

Here.

Here. Put it on. Come on.

Goodness.

What's wrong?

Are you thinking about
going to where Mom is?

Huh?

Is that it?

Are you a devoted husband?

Since when did you care about Mom so much?

She's gone,
but you need to stay here with us.

You did nothing for me, are you going to
put me through consecutive funerals?

I'm right.

You hit me and Mom,

but did nothing for us.

That's more like it.

Let's eat.

I don't have an appetite.

Hold on a second.

Have this instead then.

I'm divorced,

and my kids are all grown.

All I have left is you.

So eat up.

You need to regain your vigor.

Thank you for eating it.

I'm sorry.

We never really started anything,

but I'm telling you it's over.

Even though I was assaulted,

I thought I put it behind me.

I thought I was okay.

I believed that I was ready to love.

I believed I was okay
physically and mentally.

Jeong-o.

We're breaking up
because of one reason only.

I'm not the guy for you.

Other than that, there's nothing

that keeps us apart.

Besides,

the one who's not ready

is me, not you.

After I first kissed you,

I asked myself dozens of times a day.

"Myeong-ho,

are you really over Hyeon-su?"

"Then why

can't you let go of her pendant?"

I...

I just

couldn't answer any of those questions.

That's when I knew.

I still

love her.

You date for three years,

applied to be cops together,

and worked in the same division.

How can you move on in just two years?

That's just isn't possible.

You're right.

I guess I rushed into things.

Yes.

Jeong-o.

I hope you end up with someone
far better than me.

All right?

Okay.

I placed my order earlier.

-Please enjoy.
-Thank you.

Seriously.
Can you take your dates elsewhere?

I don't want to see it on my way to work.

Who's on a date?

We just broke up.

Laying it all out in the open

will be easier for us both.

How's Da-yeong these days?

I heard from school friends

that he's studying law in England.

Is he still studying?

He joined a law firm last month

and started dating recently.

That's great news.

He'll be happy with whomever he's with,

since he's a decent guy.

What's gotten into her?

Hey.

Did you know
Jeong-o and Myeong-ho broke up?

Hold on. Is she dating you instead?

No one's home.

The man who crashed into the car
you were driving

is in hospital,
and his wife's nursing him.

I see.

Was the man badly hurt? I can't reach him.

He fractured a cervical vertebra.

I'm so sorry.

You'll have a hard time paying

for the repairs and medical bill.

What's all this?

Even if it was an imported car,

it can't cost 47 million won to repair.

Mr. Min,
did the guy from block 308 unit 1403

tell you to pay for this too?

Don't you have to pay for the repairs to
the other car and his medical bills too?

This accident happened because
they refused to fix

the warning light in the lot.

Gosh, this is a disaster.

Hire a lawyer.

I have to go.

So...

The Resident Council
decided to let you go.

I went down on my knees to beg them
to do anything but that.

I'm sorry.

You have until the end of the month.

You can go home for today.

The man who crashed into the car
you were driving

fractured a cervical vertebra.

I'm so sorry.

You'll have a hard time paying
for everything.

The Resident Council
decided to let you go.

I went down on my knees to beg them
to do anything but that.

I'm sorry.

MY DAUGHTER

The number you have dialed
is not available at this moment.

MY SON

The number you have dialed...

We'll go straight to our reporter

out at Mahyeon Police Station.

Captain An, about a year ago,
there was a case

on Mount Somyeong's Trail 11
near Mount Baekun

that was suspected to be committed by
the same criminal.

The police were notified of the case...

A year ago, she worked here.

Why was that her responsibility?

Aren't they lunatics?

At the recent briefing,

the chief announced
he'll punish the officer in charge.

What do you say about that?

-How annoying.
-The public...

Isn't the chief a bastard?

How dare he punish her?

Captain An asked for a task force team,

but her superior and the chief refused

saying they were unrelated because
the cases were in different areas.

Every officer in the area knows that.

The victim reported it two months later.

How can we investigate with no evidence?

They're all talk when they know nothing.

This is driving me insane.

Damn you all.

Can we please watch the news?

Why bothering watching that?

You're leaving anyway.

I'm sick of being a cop.

They said nothing about how we caught him.

This event has cast serious doubt on...

Assistant Chief, what should we do?

Han Jeong-o.

What'll you do about
the high school incident?

Will you apologize or not?

I don't... I don't feel like it yet.

Do you have time and energy to spare?

What's wrong with you?

Do you think we held back
because we don't have guts?

Will you just take it easy?

There's a lot to do.

Let's go out.

I'm sure there's a reason
she said those things.

It's me.

I wanted to know how you felt.

Right now? It's pretty simple.

I feel like shit.

How is she?

Han Jeong-o, come to the gym.

Lieutenant Oh.

Jeong-o's...

You don't feel like apologizing?

Do you only do what you want?

I believe I said what had to be said

for the sake of the students.

Condoms and abortions
tie into preventing sexual assault.

Preventing sexual assault
is one of our core duties.

That's what I believe.

Who cares what you believe?

It's about the public.

You may think that
the parents who were there

are just narrow-minded,
old-fashioned snobs.

To me,

they looked like average parents,

who are agitated and concerned
that their kids

had been exposed to a threat all day.

Install machines that dispense
free sanitary pads.

Hand out free condoms
like they do overseas.

Hold debates regarding
the issue of abortion.

That wasn't for yesterday.

It would've been more efficient

if you'd posted your opinion
on the Ministry of Education's website

as a local police officer
concerned with such issues.

That is my opinion.

Captain An

was condemned by the media today
for no reason

and is facing disciplinary action.

The Captain An I know

might be infuriated by
the injustice today,

but tomorrow,

she will jump head-first into
whatever case comes her way.

Is it because everything's right?

Is it because she lacks conviction?

That's not it.

In her case,

rather than pushing her beliefs like you,

she will take the issues,

put in her time and best effort
to improve the conditions.

Like always, she'll consider that
to be the most important thing.

What will you do now?

The problems
with sexual education in schools.

Will you put in your time to appeal
to the Ministry of Education?

Or

will you consume your energy
quarreling with the parents?

Tell me. What's your choice?

I'll apologize.

Captain An.

Will she be all right?

Will she be met with
a severe disciplinary action?

I don't know.

Anyway,

I like how you're rough around the edges.

It's the perk of a young officer.

That's how it should be.

Don't be discouraged and keep it up.

That's how the world
will change for the better.

Is this the teacher's office?

I'm Officer Han Jeong-o
of Hongil Patrol Division.

I'm sorry,
but how can I reach the principal?

I didn't make anything up.

You'll soon be leaving anyway.

You asked to be transferred to Bomun
as a police corporal.

Captain Oh
of Myeongu Patrol Division called.

His senior's cancer relapsed,

so he needs an easygoing job.

Everyone at his division
is pulling strings,

but he's saying
you're stealing his chances.

He's infuriated.

That's not decent at all.

I know

that this division is busy
every day at every hour.

Of course you want to spend
your last years on the job at ease.

But behind my back

and everyone here,

you asked to be transferred
to just save yourself.

How can you be so rude?

You...

You have no idea why
I had to handle it this way!

Of course I don't. Am I a psychic?
I can't read people's minds.

How can I know when you haven't told me?

I've been trying very hard to not
let my promotion exam interfere with work,

but kudos to you.

You just asked for a transfer
as if we didn't matter at all!

That's enough.

Fine.

You're right.

I...

A few days ago...

What am I going to do?

The man I brought in a few days back
hurt himself,

but he's blaming it on me.

He filed a complaint
claiming police brutality.

What do I do?

What if I lose my badge over this?

Assistant Chief, you won't believe this.

A call came in about
a security guard committing arson,

so our division rolled out.

I looked into the call,

and that security guard is Su-man.

What?

You can't stay here.

Please evacuate to a safer location!

What the hell is going on?

Rolling down the hose.

Won-u, here comes the paramedics.

Excuse me. Out of the way.

Let the ambulance through.

MIN SU-MAN

Damn it.

The person you are trying to reach...

MIN SU-MAN

Pick up. Pick up, damn it!

Why aren't you saying anything?

Shouldn't someone explain to me
what's going on?

We're sorry, Captain An.

For the sake of the entire force,

the chief couldn't say otherwise.

We followed protocol.

Unless three or more cases are tied,

we can't classify it as a serial.

Forming a task force can
expose the victims' identities,

and the media puts pressure
on the investigation.

However, the public doesn't care.

They don't care that
we caught the culprit either.

The mother of the deceased
has reported me,

the chief, and you
for dereliction of duty.

It's impossible to have us prosecuted.

Still, we need to dig ourselves
out of this mess.

We all know that you're not to blame.

The prosecutor's office is
in sharp disagreement on this,

so whatever we say
will be heard as an excuse.

Captain An,

I know it's not fair,
but don't make this messier.

Think of the force and--

I'm a member of that said force too.

You're right.

We're all members of it.

So as a member of the force--

That's not what I mean!

You, me, and everyone here
are a member of the force.

So why am I the only one

getting disciplinary action?

Tell me.

Why is it that you can't
be the subject instead?

Give me a good reason.

Why?

Are you too high up on the food chain
to receive it?

Is that why I'm the scapegoat?

I was diagnosed with cancer.

Su-man!

Go!

The job at Bomun Station.

Make sure you're the one
who ends up going. Not him.

If you were my daughter,

I'd have you quit the force.

They want me to get lost.

Should we both quit?

Drop your weapon!
