Goddess Bless You from Death (2025) s01e04 Episode Script

This kind of doll
is called a "Tukta Siakaban."
You'd only find it in a shaman's house
or a spiritual medium's shrine.
Thup! It’s me.
Then can you explain
why this victim
buried the doll in his garden?
I think someone cursed him.
Don’t you know
he’s done this before?
Someone died because of it.
Hey, spirit! Come out!
Someone's testing your power!
- Jump!
- Police! Stop!
Thup. Thup.
Thup.
Thup.
Don’t be afraid.
I’m right here.
It’s fine, it’s fine.
It’s fine.
Easy, easy.
Easy.
Uh, Inspector.
I’ll take these kids to the station.
Uh…
Yeah, okay. I’ll follow.
Come on, move. You brats.
Easy, easy, Thup.
You okay?
Singha.
I saw a ghost again.
I know.
But I’m here now.
No one,
not even a ghost can hurt you now.
Inspector.
He should be fine now, right?
Thup just got scared.
So I calmed him down.
Well, okay.
I mean it.
I didn’t say anything.
Take their phone too.
- Yes.
- Get it checked.
Yes, sir.
You really okay?
I’m okay.
Then go.
Go.
So what did you see just now?
You looked more scared than usual.
Here.
Thup.
You took this from the scene?
Uh, I saw it on the ground.
I didn’t know who dropped it.
Maybe it belonged to those YouTubers.
I didn’t dare hand it to you.
They were live.
Didn’t want people to panic.
But you shouldn’t pick it up bare-handed.
I really didn’t think about it.
I think…
the ghost got mad
I found the Tukta Siakaban.
Because normal wandering spirits
don’t hurt people.
They just want merit offerings.
But this one…
feels like it came to harm someone.
What do you mean?
I don’t get it.
I think…
the ghost was following an order.
An order?
You're saying someone can control a ghost?
Yes.
Like I told you before.
Anyone with these dolls
might be hit with witchcraft.
And the one controlling the ghost
has to be a dark shaman.
Witchcraft, ghosts…
and now a shaman who can command one?
People who keep ghosts to use won’t stop.
From my time as a temple kid,
and everything I’ve lived through,
I can guarantee you this.
They won’t stop.
Then I need to know
who that damn shaman is.
Uh…
What are you doing, Thup?
Trying to burn my house down?
No.
I’m praying to Thao Wessuwan.
We touched something bad yesterday.
Need him to protect the two of us.
When did you buy all this?
Oh. I woke up around five.
Went to buy them at the market.
You should pray with me.
He’s been protecting you all along.
I can pray for you,
but all I can do
is dedicate merit for you.
The rest is something
you need to do yourself.
Stuff like this comes from the heart.
And this Thao Wessuwan statue,
my mom gave it to me.
Of course I have to respect him.
And if you weren’t
tied to cases like this,
I wouldn’t ask you to pray yourself.
What now?
The Phirot Ring.
Old folks say
wearing it keeps danger away.
You're making this up to fool me?
Just because I gave in a little?
You’re delusional.
Just wear it.
I even rented it from a hardcore master.
Think of it as fashion if you want.
Then why are you wearing one too?
They have to be worn as a pair?
Of course they do.
We’re dealing with
witchcraft cases all the time now.
You think I’d rent one just for you?
I need to survive too.
I don’t want to wear
a matching ring with you.
Everyone knows it’s a Phirot Ring.
No one thinks it’s a couple ring.
Only… someone clueless like you.
Hey, you little.
The ring does look kinda cool though.
Time to eat.
Hey, Singha, wait.
Where’s the food, Thup?
Uh…
I spent all my money on offerings today.
So I think you might have to eat…
red apples, grapes,
pomegranate, dragon fruit
instead of breakfast.
Hey, no, no.
We’ll just eat out.
Oh, okay.
Let’s go.
Why are you here?
Got yourself a smart little suspect
guarding your house now?
How many times do I have to say it?
Thup is a witness,
not a suspect.
And you? How did you get in?
The way I always did.
I got in the same way just now.
Are you gonna tell me
why you’re here?
Or should I arrest you for trespassing?
Fine.
You win.
I just came to warn you about last night.
Inspector Singha letting
outsiders enter a crime scene?
That’s not good at all.
We already pulled them out.
And more importantly,
the scene wasn’t damaged.
And you, head of the special unit,
what were you doing?
Just sitting around?
Collecting a paycheck, huh?
The scene may not be damaged,
but the case can be.
And more importantly,
a cop like you
went and did that on camera.
I went in because Thup saw a ghost.
A ghost?
Someone like you believes in ghosts?
I don’t.
But anything that protects
the only witness in this case, I’ll do it.
Clear?
I can let last night slide.
But hurry up.
I need this case closed fast.
Orders from headquarters.
I hope you won’t waste time
playing ghost games,
and forget what matters.
Because if you get transferred this time…
no one can save you.
What’s wrong?
I’m fine.
Let’s go.
Worried about hugging
on the livestream last night?
Don’t worry.
I handled it.
I was just thinking…
where do you have to hide your key
so King can’t find it.
The spare key?
Why do you need to know?
You come home with me every day anyway.
Or are you planning something?
Don’t let me find out.
I’ll lock you up for sure.
It’s not like that.
I may not have money,
but I’ve never thought of
stealing from anyone.
Including stealing someone
who already belongs to someone else.
If he really was your boyfriend,
I shouldn’t be around you like this.
It wouldn’t look good.
I don’t have a boyfriend.
No one owns me either.
Okay, then.
That’s a relief.
What? I’m not gonna do anything to you.
Someone like me
doesn’t do things to people that easily.
Someone I like
can’t be scared of ghosts
or be obsessed with the supernatural.
What are you talking about?
I didn’t even say anything.
Why are you telling me that?
- Here.
- Oh, thanks.
Hungover?
Yeah. Dehydrated.
That bad? Want to call in sick?
I’m fine.
But last night,
I was so drunk I remember nothing.
I still have no idea
how I ended up in your room.
That’s you.
Always crawling back here in the end.
What?
What are you staring at?
Can’t I tease you a little?
So last night was that fun?
Nah.
Where do I ever party?
That was
my first blackout in years.
Of course.
When you were with me,
I never saw you were into that stuff.
So why go this time?
Just trying something new.
Maybe I could find something new.
They say if you live the same way,
you only meet the same things.
And what’s so wrong
with the same old things?
And in your story,
that's someone new?
Even if he is,
it still has nothing to do with you.
I’m thirsty too.
Go make your own drink.
DID YOU GET HOME SAFE LAST NIGHT?
WANT TO MEET OUTSIDE NEXT TIME?
Sir. We really didn’t do anything bad.
Just stepping into a crime scene
is already illegal.
Didn’t you know that?
What did you all run into last night?
Tell me everything.
Well…
No… nothing much.
- Shit!
- Jump!
You called me, so I came to you!
It was so dark
I could barely see anything.
You’re sure?
’Cause it looked like you
were running from something.
See a ghost?
You saw it too?
Like it was coming to take my friend?
Bom, shut it.
Well?
I barely remember anything.
I… I’m sorry.
I shouldn’t have tried
to provoke anything.
Sacred beings, please protect me.
Namo Tassa Bhagavato…
I’m really sorry.
Whose doll is this?
It’s not ours.
We don’t know anything about it.
You know something?
You’re the one who took us there.
If you know anything, tell them.
I really don’t know anything.
I… I didn’t think
that place actually had anything.
This headless doll, does it
have anything to do with the case?
You’re in no position to ask us anything.
If I ask, you answer.
So whose doll is it?
It’s really not ours.
We didn’t take anything from the scene.
If it’s not yours, how’d it end up there?!
Sing.
Ko.
Take these kids for DNA collection
and record history.
Then release them.
And I hope I won’t see you posting
or doing anything tied to the scene again.
Otherwise,
next time won’t be just taking records.
- Thanks.
- Thanks.
- Go.
- Go.
- Go now.
- Follow me.
Sing. You've questioned so much,
but still no progress.
I say go back to my plan.
Plant charges on a witness?
Two years have passed.
You still use the same dirty tricks.
Don’t get mad at me yet.
I think you and me just now
played good cop, bad cop,
well like always.
It’s classic.
The bad cop role is for scaring.
I’ve always played it like that.
And you, just put on the good guy face.
Aren’t you good at that?
Go ahead and jab at me all you want.
I won’t blame you.
I just like it that you
and I don’t have to try so hard.
We still click the same.
Makes sense you’re my best partner ever.
Wait, Sing.
So what will you do next?
Wanna come up with a plan in my room?
Or yours. I'm fine either way.
No need.
I work better alone.
I don’t want a partner.
COUNTERPAIN MEDICATED PLASTER
How is it, Singha?
What did the YouTubers say?
They swore
they’d never seen the doll before.
Means nothing is moving then.
Must’ve missed something.
Thup.
You said those yantras
and clay dolls
must belong to a spirit shaman’s house
or a medium’s shrine, right?
Yes. Why?
And what if it’s a house
or a center inviting people
to meditate and practice?
I just saw that the homes
of these two victims
had the same prayer book.
I searched it.
Came up as Santi Tham.
- Santi Tham House?
- Yes.
You think there’s something there?
Normally, religious centers
are full of good people.
Still have to check to be sure.
Feels a bit too coincidental
that these two victims
had the same prayer book.
SANTI THAM
- Mek.
- Yes, sir.
Send these dolls to forensics.
- Might find something useful.
- Yes, sir.
And Santi Tham House.
Look into it.
And also check
if any victim
knew it or ever went there.
Roger.
SANTI THAM
- Uh, excuse me.
- Yes?
I'd like to know if there’s a ritual…
Let’s talk over there instead.
Yes.
What were you about to ask me?
Does this place have
a Mae Sue worship ritual?
Sorry?
Those with animal heads,
like a tiger head.
Tiger head? It's Ekalai.
Saturday’s Mae Sue.
Young men like you
know Mae Sue too?
Just a little.
So, do they perform that ritual here?
Oh, they don’t.
It’s an old belief.
Okay.
- Thank you.
- Mhm.
I checked what you told me to.
In the CCTV,
Mr. Thee went to make merit
at Santi Tham House every day.
As for Ms. Meen,
the last victim,
she stopped for gas
on the route to Santi Tham House as well.
Right now, I think these seven victims
must have some connection
to Santi Tham House.
Maybe the two Tukta Siakabans we found
might have something
linked to the belief in Mae Sue.
Each Mae Sue
watches over those born on each day.
Then,
these seven victims
might all have been
born on different days.
James, Jirayu.
Born Sunday.
FOR OFFICIAL POLICE USE
Jom, Jompon.
Born Monday.
Orn Orawan.
Born Tuesday.
Thee, Thanakorn.
Born Wednesday.
Kaew, Kotchakorn.
Born Thursday.
Nai, Chanin. Born Friday.
Meen, Phakaphong.
Born Saturday.
All seven victims
were born on different days.
If it’s really a ritual, like Thup said,
I think every victim
might have a Tukta Siakaban in their home.
If we find those dolls,
we can start forming a hypothesis.
Should I request warrants
to search the other victims’ homes?
Good. Do it.
Phone, Earn, come with me.
- Yes.
- Yes.
This is because of you.
You helped me and the team
find links between the victims.
We’re getting closer to the killer.
SEVEN-TREE CASE
MEEN, THEE
NAI
I’m glad I could help you, really.
What is it?
Oh, the paperwork you asked me to do
for requesting to meet Tewit,
the inmate in Phang Nga
from a similar case ten years ago.
Good. Tell them.
In an hour, I’ll go in.
Yes.
Want me to go alone?
You might want to finish something first?
There's nothing I need to finish now.
Tell them I’ll go in.
Yes.
And?
Will you take your favorite witness
to meet the killer too?
That's not your business.
I’m the head
of the special investigation team.
Your business is mine.
Uh, Singha.
I’ll wait at home.
You’ll work more comfortably.
Having me there might not be good.
You sure you can go home?
I can.
The spare key
is under the plant pot.
Leftmost of the fence.
If doctors can’t love patients,
then cops shouldn’t love suspects.
Hope you know the line.
How many times must I say
that Thup and I are just cop and witness.
I want to believe that.
But right now you look like
a stubborn suspect, Singha.
Don’t act like you know me.
But I really do know you.
I’ve seen that look in your eyes.
Back then,
you used to look at me like that.
Are you a historian or what?
Always digging up the past.
What’s over is over.
Someone like me learns from my mistakes.
Watch me.
I’ll do whatever it takes to get you back.
I’ll prove it to you
that I’ve changed.
Sing.
Can we talk?
Let’s go.
What is it? Work?
Not work.
I need advice.
About Darin.
Are you two getting back together?
It's the opposite.
I really want to move on.
But damn.
Feels like I’m stuck in a loop.
Can’t get anywhere with anyone.
Getting back with him
doesn’t feel right.
Whatever makes you happy.
Pick one and go with it.
But then,
you saw what it was like
when we were together
and how much of a headache it was.
Get used to it.
With how you two are now,
it’ll take a long time to settle.
What's that ring?
Thup gave it to me.
He said it keeps bad things away.
In case the case involves
black magic, so we don’t die.
Didn’t you not believe in this stuff?
Still don’t.
But if wearing it makes Thup feel safer,
I just… don’t want to see him anxious.
Oh.
So you’re doing it for Thup.
Don’t turn it back to me.
Worry about yourself.
Ask yourself.
You can’t move on or do anything,
what scares you?
I just want both me and him to be okay.
I don’t know,
if I really manage to move on,
will he be okay?
You? Move on?
You still worry about him this much.
How will you move on?
Sing.
Even if he’s an ex,
Darin is still…
a junior,
a coworker,
and a bed partner.
I still do everything the same.
I don’t want him hurt.
Then why make it so hard for you both?
I just want both of you to be happy.
But for you.
You should start thinking
about yourself too.
About what?
You know fine well.
King came back
not just for the case.
He probably wants to make up with you.
So what will you do?
Will you give him a chance?
Me and King?
No way.
I didn’t mean just King.
I meant the one who gave you the ring too.
Sing.
If you have a way to move on,
I want you to go for it.
Don’t get stuck in a loop like me.
It's messy.
When the case ends, we'll separate anyway.
Done? Anything else?
That’s all.
Don’t overthink. Go.
Tewit Kengkitsakun.
You’re the convicted killer
in the seven-body case in Phang Nga
in 2015.
Can you tell me
what happened that day?
Hey.
The officer asked you.
If you’re asked, answer.
Why?
What good will talking do?
I told the cops a hundred times
I didn’t do it.
I still ended up in prison.
Cops don’t arrest people for no reason.
There must’ve been evidence strong enough.
That’s how you ended up here.
The documents say clearly
that your DNA was
on the bodies.
You’re no different from those cops.
Just leave.
You’re wasting my time.
I’m not like them,
who rush to pin the blame
just to close cases.
You think I believe that?
Mr. Tewit.
If you tell me everything one more time,
I might find something
that could help your case.
Bangkok just had a seven-body killing too.
Hanged on a tree
the same way as your case,
the one you were accused of.
So what?
I’m already in prison.
What’s it got to do with me?
Because I know
this case has nothing to do with you.
And maybe the Phang Nga case
didn’t either.
If you want to reclaim justice,
then help me with what you know
until I can close this case
and bring the real killer to prison.
I can’t return your ten years,
but I can help you not spend
the rest of your life like this.
I know it hurts.
But if anything comes to you,
please tell me.
That day, my father and I
didn’t go out to sea.
There was a storm warning.
PHANG NGA, 2015
But late at night, someone called me
and said my net drifted off the boat.
So I went to check,
walking through the woods
they called the graveyard.
I saw lights,
so I crept in to see.
And…
what I saw next…
was the scariest thing
I ever saw in my life.
The cops arrested me,
saying I was the killer.
They said the evidence was…
a rope with my DNA.
But that was the only thing
pointing to me.
When was the last time
you saw the victim you knew?
Not sure, maybe…
the Sart Duean Sip merit day.
A few days before it happened.
And clay dolls or Tukta Siakabans.
Did you ever see them at the scene?
No. Never saw them.
- Excuse me.
- Yes.
Where were you?
I… took the documents to Sing.
Had to take them in person?
Don’t you usually email?
Well…
There were some case details to explain.
And what’s this? What are you doing?
The doll Sing found.
Hey.
There’s hair on it.
You're right.
I’ll rush it to the lab.
Maybe the DNA matches one of the victims.
Bew.
Yes?
Please run DNA on the hair from this doll.
- Sure. Okay.
- Make it urgent, please.
Darin.
Sey.
What’s wrong? You okay?
Just now…
I thought I saw something weird.
It’s nothing.
Your vision’s blurry.
Didn’t you sleep?
Sey, I’m scared.
There’s nothing.
Don’t overthink.
What’s going on with you?
Come here.
Here.
- Hello, Singha?
- Thup.
Tewit said around the time
it happened ten years ago,
it was during Sart Duean Sip.
Some Southern ritual or something.
You know anything about it?
It’s a Southern ancestor
honoring ceremony,
held every new moon
of the tenth lunar month.
The moon stays dark.
I can find that online myself.
You got anything more?
Hm.
The elder monk once told me
about a ritual involving the moon.
If it’s during the waning moon,
and you perform a ritual,
the effect of the occult
gets much stronger.
Waning moon nights?
So…
you think Tewit isn’t the killer?
I’m sure he’s not.
Otherwise, how would it happen
every five years?
I’ll be back late tonight.
Need to gather more info.
Okay, Singha.
I told you I can stay on my own.
You don’t have to worry.
You, though,
you're still wearing the Phirot Ring
I gave you, right?
I am.
What are you afraid of?
Nothing, really.
Just so I don’t have to worry
when you're alone.
When you’re done, hurry home, okay?
I cooked a lot for you.
Dry phalo stir-fry,
basil stir-fry, clear pork soup.
You made too much.
It’s just the two of us.
No need to feed the whole block.
It’s fine, .
I’ve got plenty of time anyway.
Anything I can do, I’ll do it.
Okay.
I’ll finish up here and head back to eat.
Okay. And just…
take care of yourself. I worry about you.
I’ll wait at home.
Wait as long as you can.
If you’re sleepy, go to bed.
Okay.
MEDICAL EXAMINER’S STAFF ROOM
It’s a clean-food recipe from my shop.
You’re on a late shift,
so I brought you some.
So,
you run your own shop?
Impressive.
If you like it, I can make more for you.
Sure.
This is the guy from your story, right?
Uh…
Hi.
Oh. This is Buss.
The guy I met at the party.
And this is Darin.
My coworker.
Just a coworker?
Oh?
You already had dinner with me.
I can eat more.
Oh. Old meals don’t fill you up, huh?
So you need something new.
What’s your problem?
Your ex just wanted to say hi.
Is that not allowed?
Just curious
what your soon-to-be
new boyfriend is like.
Darin.
I should get going.
I’ll DM you later, Sey.
Okay.
Anyway… thanks for the food.
Sure.
What’s wrong with you?
Why’d you do that?
What? I just wanted
to say hi to your new guy.
That’s not "saying hi."
That’s starting trouble.
What?
Don’t want people to know
that I’m your ex?
What do you want?
Nothing.
I don’t want anything.
Then why are you so mad at me?
Because of what you did,
you’re acting like you own me.
When actually,
we’re nothing anymore.
Just bed buddies.
That status
doesn’t come with rights to be jealous.
What you’re doing
is not okay for us.
Get that straight.
DNA test sample.
Huh?
Sey, pick up.
Come on, Sey. Pick up.
Sorry,
the number that you've dialed
cannot be connected--
Sey, the DNA results are out.
I’m heading to Singha’s house.
Fuck it.
Hello.
Huh?
Hello?
You really wanna mess with me?
You really wanna mess with me?
Thanks a lot. See you tomorrow.
Yes, Inspector.
Hey, Lieutenant, let's have a beer.
No thanks, Sergeant. Early shift.
Alright, alright.
- Good night.
- Good night, everyone.
- Good night, Inspector.
- See you.
- Singha!
- Hey!
Thup.
Thup.
Thup.
Thup.
Thup.
Thup.
Thup.
NEXT EPISODE
Do you know where he likes to go pray?
There’s a yantra stuck here.
Feels like this ghost doesn’t
want us to find the Tukta Siakaban.
We need to keep digging here.
Santi Tham House.
Shouldn’t have left him alone.
You didn’t make him get hit by a car, man.
Do you still feel anything
for Inspector King?
Being alone like this
- is kinda nice.
- Alone?
You’ve got me.
