Suspicious Partner (2017) s01e07 Episode Script

1
I thought you might not come home.
I really didn't mean to confess my love.
I like you.
I like you, Mr. Noh.
Don't
fall for me.
Why not?
Do you
No.
There are so many things
I want to ask you.
But
you won't answer my questions, right?
Will I
regret this moment?
I'm starting to regret
confessing my love to you.
Will I regret stopping myself
because I'm scared to start
a new relationship?
But I don't regret liking you.
Can I ask you for a favor?
Let me
hug you one more time.
Can't you at least allow me to do that?
Since I have to end this one-sided love--
What
Well
I slept so much that my eyes got swollen.
Ice-cold spoons are the cure
for swollen eyes.
Cold towel.
I'll soak a towel in cold water for you.
Don't do that.
You told me not to like you.
Then you shouldn't be so nice to me.
You have to help me out.
Right.
I always listen to you so well.
So I'm trying my best to not like you.
But if you keep being nice like this,
it'll be hard for me.
I'll get the wrong idea.
Okay.
I'm
going to reset myself
to back when I didn't like you.
Back to when you were my mentor.
So
don't do this.
Okay, fine.
I'll do as you say.
Are you going to stay here?
No.
My gosh.
What is all this?
I used what I had in the fridge
to make these,
so the dishes
are quite random.
Do you have insomnia again?
Is it a special day today?
I know what this is.
You two.
What do you think you're doing?
Last night,
I finished work a bit late.
That's when I saw it.
Look at those two.
I saw you guys hugging each other.
-You must be mistaken.
-Yes.
-What? What?
-That can happen when you're old.
I saw it with my own eyes.
Ji-uk, say something.
You two were definitely--
If Bong-hui says you're wrong,
I guess you are.
Don't try to fool me.
I'm sure there's something
going on between you two.
-No, there's nothing going on.
-Nothing.
Nothing between us.
Really?
Then was I really mistaken?
-Yes.
-Yes.
Hey, should I get my eyes checked?
You little
I had breakfast already,
but I'll have it again. Thank you.
Mr. Byeon.
It's okay. Everything will be fine.
Your eyes will get better.
As you can see, it's a murder by a robber.
The prosecution charged Jung Hyeon-su
for the murder by a robber.
The evidence is the witness
living across from the victim,
Jung's footprint,
and the button
that fell off from his shirt.
He even has a criminal intent.
Jung Hyeon-su's lease contract
was soon to be terminated.
The lease deposit money is expensive.
-Right.
-I guess he needed money.
Jung Hyeon-su's criminal record?
He got into a minor assault incident
while he was trying to
save a woman from danger.
But
what happened to the weapon?
It disappeared.
The autopsy results
says it must be a knife that's around
13cm in length and 3.5cm in width.
There's no direct evidence to prove
that Jung Hyeon-su is the murderer.
But there's no evidence
to prove that he's not either.
I'll find his alibi.
I'm going to look for that couple
who was at the bar
with Jung Hyeon-su
on the day of the incident.
I'm looking for the couple
in this picture.
It's a very important matter.
Please call me at this number.
I left my phone number at the bar.
I'm sure I'll get a call.
Jung Hyeon-su is the culprit.
I'm sure of it.
With that naive face of his,
he was mocking
me and the law.
I don't care about that,
but I must win this case
because I'm going against Bong-hui.
Anyway, don't overwork yourself.
You were really sick.
I'm all better now.
What's the use of being sick?
I don't have a guy to take care of me.
It's all useless.
I agree.
No good comes from being sick.
We should always stay healthy.
What are you doing, Ms. Eun?
I'm drying off.
What?
Do you want me
to keep talking to you or not?
Gently, please.
Talk to me gently, please.
My whole body is filled with water
right now.
If you accidentally poke me,
I might burst.
I hope you dry yourself well.
I just need to make sure
I don't cry in front of Mr. Noh.
I can do that much, right?
Would you like to cry your eyes out
in advance?
Should I do that?
I think I'm done for.
Excuse me.
Yes?
What happened between you and Ms. Eun?
Mr. Byeon
saw you hugging each other.
Then you guys were so cold
around each other this morning.
Excuse me, but since
I'm working with both of you,
I need to know what's going on.
You said there weren't any CCTVs
in the alley, right?
At least get me a CCTV footage
of the nearby road.
And try to find out if there were
any dashboard cameras nearby.
I also need every single information
on Chef Yang's restaurant.
Including the list of employees,
I want to know about his reputation,
rumors, and every other detail.
And don't forget to check
if the stolen material was found.
I'm not curious.
I don't have a single thing
I wish to know about you two.
I'm serious.
Okay, I think I'll need about that much.
I'm serious.
You might like him more
because you can't get him.
I wish I could just be okay.
Of course. If things turn out
how we wanted them to,
life would be so much easier.
Why are you guys slacking off?
Sorry, Ji-uk.
Are you going somewhere?
-I'm going on a field investigation.
-I'll go with you.
Hurry, or I'll leave without you.
Good luck.
Get a grip.
You can do it.
It's best to forget about him.
Right?
Good luck.
-Good luck.
-Good luck.
But doing your best doesn't mean
you can change your mind.
Get a grip.
Gosh, that hurts.
I don't think there's any here.
Nothing was visible because someone
sprayed spray paint over it.
This one is out.
This one was turned off
because it's broken.
Is this where the prosecution's evidence
is from?
I don't think I've seen that one.
Okay. Check it
and get the footage from it.
I didn't think you'd work this hard.
I must prove
that Jung Hyeon-su is not guilty
in order for myself
to understand this case.
Well, don't get the wrong idea.
I'm doing this for myself.
All right, Bong-hui. Go.
-Pardon?
-Relax and get in there.
Yes.
Good. Underlings have to take care of
these things.
Yes, sir.
Something definitely seems off.
It's so odd.
What's so odd?
Why do you think
he took the framed painting?
By the way,
we are committing trespassing, aren't we?
Plus, we're illegally
searching the property.
Come on.
I can't get arrested again.
I'm still traumatized from last time.
Right. That's understandable.
What's this? It's you guys?
-Let go.
-You let go first.
Goodness. Stop it already.
Both of you should let go.
We're
We're here to inspect the scene
as Mr. Jung's lawyers.
Good luck. Let's go, Bong-hui.
Shall we?
Stop right there, Ji-uk.
Let's talk for just ten minutes.
Bong-hui, you can leave.
Pardon?
If you guys leave,
I'll get a warrant for your arrest.
Just Bong-hui alone.
Sorry?
Why only me?
It's up to me.
What do you say?
Shall I request for a warrant?
-I just need ten minutes.
-Make it five.
All right.
You still visit the scenes
even though you're a lawyer now.
Yeah. You're working pretty hard yourself.
You taught me all this.
As a prosecutor,
you had more experience than me.
You taught me not to sit behind the desk
and inspecting scenes
-and how to interrogate.
-Your five minutes are almost up.
You must know Jung Hyeon-su has been
previously convicted of assault.
Yes.
It's not just the face.
The victim got a few ribs broken
as he was beaten up to a pulp.
Had people not stopped him,
he would've killed the victim.
You used to catch criminals like him.
Why would you defend him?
Navy is a good color on you.
You were wearing a navy tie
the last time you came.
I think navy looks great on you.
Oh, did I?
Does it look okay? Does the color suit me?
I actually have heard that many times.
All right. Shall we get started?
Well, I did some research
and found out that Gosh. You have
beaten someone up to a pulp in the past.
Like this.
So? Are you trying to say
that you think
I killed Chef Yang
just because I have a criminal record?
No, no.
Not because of your criminal record.
It's just
a feeling I'm getting.
I think you might have done it.
Mr. Jung.
People use the phrase,
"heat of the moment" a lot.
It's used to refer to crimes
that are committed on impulse.
If you look at this Gosh.
This wasn't a heat-of-a-moment case.
A will is needed for anyone
to beat up someone like this.
A murderous intent.
An urge to kill that person
or an intent to act on such urge.
-That kind of will.
-Right, I wanted to kill him.
Have you ever seen anyone
close to you getting hurt?
I have.
I should've kept that person safe.
There was a kid whom I failed to protect.
That's when I had this thought.
Right. When I'm a little older
and have more power and ability,
I shouldn't let anyone fall victim
to such unfairness.
That's when I saw this jerk.
Have a look.
This scum.
This jerk was assaulting a woman.
Do you think he had a reason for that?
Not at all. Like you just said,
it was a heat-of-the-moment thing.
He had no reason whatsoever.
He attacked her randomly,
and I only did what I could do
to help her. Do you understand?
All right. Please calm down.
Well Gosh, I can't get
these photos crinkled up like this.
Let's say that everything
you're telling me is true.
Yes, you're absolutely right. However
You didn't do this to stop him.
You did this as a way of punishing him.
Am I wrong?
What's wrong with that?
Gosh, I'm sorry. My apologies.
I'm really sorry.
At the time, I was
My gosh. I guess I lost it
for a few minutes.
I was trying to do a good deed,
but I think I overdid it a little.
Aren't I right?
Gosh. I'm sorry, Mr. Noh.
I got too worked up.
It's all right.
But there is one thing
I can say for certain.
It's that I didn't kill Chef Yang Jin-wu.
There's no reason
why I would do such a thing.
I don't hurt people without any reason.
I'm sorry.
Did something happen?
I
really hate clients.
I really hate
guilty clients.
But
I hate innocent clients even more.
I'm scared that I might not
be able to set them free.
Were you okay
when you were a prosecutor then?
Your dad
was always worried too.
He was worried that someone
he arrested today
might actually be innocent
and that someone he released today
might actually be guilty.
Dad went through the same thing.
Cheers.
-Cheers.
-Cheers.
I should have liked Mr. Ji instead.
If only you were my type--
How awesome would that have been?
Thinking about it gives me the thrill.
Then I would not be in a one-sided love.
Our love would have been reciprocated.
Reciprocated.
But why are you not my type?
No matter how many times I look at you,
I don't have feelings for you.
None.
It's because Cupid is a shitty little
a baby. That's the root of this problem.
It's because he can't shoot
his arrows right.
-That's exactly right.
-If a Korean archer was Cupid,
the success rate
would have been 100 percent.
You're right!
-Aren't I?
-You're right.
I'm right!
-It would have been perfect.
-He would've shot like this.
I've never thought about that.
It's Ji-uk.
Mr. Noh, you are here.
What are you all doing?
Why did you make her drink so much?
Ji-uk, don't worry.
I'll text you when I get home.
-I love you!
-Don't worry. I can go home.
Don't worry. I'm going.
I can go home.
That's it.
My everyday life is a struggle.
How can a girl black out
every time she drinks?
Here
We're here.
All right.
Well
This isn't my place.
Really? This is the address you gave me.
I'm sorry.
Please drop me off
at Royal Apartment in Seongsan-dong.
Sure.
CASE REPORT ON THE MURDER OF YANG JIN-WU
SEOUL GANGSEO POLICE
Well, I asked you
for a bunch of documents.
I see that you only brought me
a few, Mr. Bang.
I didn't have time to go through
all the documents--
Yet you had time to go out for drinks?
Please go through them all
and find everything related to Chef Yang.
Go look through his social media
or even his garbage bins.
And make sure to find out
what that painting was.
And about that restaurant
Yes, you. You do it.
-Me?
-Yes, you. Go find it.
Why me? I'm already working on many cases.
I don't have time for that.
Yet you also have time
to go out for drinks.
Check every frame of that footage
we got from the CCTV
and show me everything you find.
What if I don't find anything?
You have to find something no matter what.
You must find something!
Keep looking! Keep your eyes peeled
and bring me something.
Okay, I will.
You brought this case to our firm.
You also wanted to take on it,
so you should feel more responsible.
Got it.
You guys
must've joined this firm
to have drinks all the time.
I need to watch the footage
from the store, but it's on your laptop.
NOH JI-UK
Thank you.
LAWYER JI EUN-HYEOK
Hello.
-I'm Lawyer Ji Eun-hyeok.
-Oh, hello.
I just need to ask you a quick question.
Wait, just a second. Excuse me.
Excuse me.
It must be heavy.
-It's fine.
-Let me help. It's okay.
Well, this is Oh, boy.
Just five minutes.
Please spare me five minutes of your time.
My apologies. I'm not some weird guy.
There's not much trash today.
It turns out he was a scumbag.
Is that all?
No way.
All right. When someone does
something bad,
there's a person
who just watches and patches it up.
It's the chef's sister.
Didn't she discover the body?
Her name is Yang Ji-yeon.
Wait.
LAWYER EUN BONG-HUI
Mr. Noh, I found him.
Let me see.
Look at this,
and this.
-Here.
-Hold on.
It's him.
Bong-hui, good job.
Good
Good job.
These are the evidence
left at the scene of the murder
proving the defendant was there.
FINGERPRINTS ANALYSIS RESUL
This is the button
found at the crime scene.
It's confirmed that the fingerprints
and DNA on this button match
to the suspect's fingerprints and DNA.
In addition, these are
the footprints found at the scene.
Can you see them?
These footprints are also identical
to the footprints
from the defendant's sneakers, Your Honor.
The button found at the crime scene
is indeed the button
that the defendant dropped.
However,
he dropped it on the day
before the murder,
which was May 19.
I can't deliver the package
without your signature.
I'm busy. Give it to me fast.
-I'm sorry. Here you go.
-Okay.
Leave it there.
-Right here?
-Yes.
Do you need some help?
-Can you lift it?
-Lift it?
Mr. Yang had something under the couch
and the defendant
could not turn away from him,
so he helped Yang Jin-wu and moved
the furniture together in his house.
Presumably he might have dropped it
when he was helping him.
Your Honor, that is a mere assumption.
So is the claim that he dropped it
while he killed the victim
one the day of murder.
WITNESS
You witnessed a man coming out
of the victim's house
on the day of murder, May 20
around 7:30 p.m.
Of course. I saw him.
Because I was looking out the window
the whole evening.
Could you point out who that man was?
Oh, he's right there.
That's all, Your Honor.
Witness,
how good is your eyesight?
I may be old,
but I have 20/20 vision.
Your eyesight is great.
If so, can I ask you
to describe the scene
you witnessed in detail?
Describe?
Yes. For example, can you tell us
what the defendant was wearing?
I see. He was wearing a black outfit.
He wore black clothes, hat,
and even gloves although it was hot.
Didn't he have a bag with him?
No, he didn't.
You remember it very clearly.
I'm famous in my neighborhood
for having a good memory.
I see. What about the man's physique?
Did he look fatter back then
like he was in a winter jacket?
No way. He was slim just like he is now.
Then how did he move
the valuables he supposedly stole?
According to the victim's family,
a laptop, gold bars, a trophy,
a DSLR camera, lenses, expensive watches,
and a big painting were stolen.
This is a bag that I filled with
the items I've just mentioned.
All those items put together
will be as big as this bag.
On top of that, the big painting
didn't even fit in this bag.
Yet
the witness who have a perfect vision,
testified the defendant didn't have
any bag with him.
Seeing that he looked slim,
it implies that
he didn't hide the valuables
under his clothes.
Your Honor,
please remember the fact
that the stolen valuables
from the victim's house
didn't resurface at all.
The defendant could have returned
to the scene.
It's possible he returned after the murder
to take the valuables.
These are the photos of footprints
that the prosecution claims
to belong to the defendant.
Following the prosecutor's logic,
if the defendant did return to the scene,
there should have been
duplicate footprints.
Don't you agree?
STRATEGY TO REFUTE PROSECUTION
You were the first person
to discover your brother,
Yang Jin-wu's body around 1 p.m.
the day after he was murdered.
Is this true?
Yes, it's true.
After the discovery,
you reported it to the police
and called the ambulance
without any hesitation.
Yes.
This is the footage of the CCTV
we submitted additionally.
Since this was located
in an unnoticeable alley,
the prosecution
was unable to acquire these footages.
When you look at the screen,
the plate number is 8209.
Isn't this your vehicle?
Yes, it is.
Let me direct you
to the date and the time.
It was the day
after the murder at 11:13am.
What is the meaning of this?
You testified you were certain
that you arrived
at the victim's house at 1 p.m.
That was your testimony, wasn't it?
I think it was.
WITNESS
Was it 11 a.m. or 1 p.m.?
I'm asking you the time of your arrival.
I don't know.
A while ago,
you seemed to remember it clearly.
But now you can't.
Your Honor, the defense lawyer
is pressuring the witness to testify.
I'm merely questioning her
since there is a reasonable doubt.
You may continue.
Please answer the question.
-Ms. Yang!
-I said I don't know.
I don't remember!
Should I refresh your memory?
Isn't it true
that you murdered
your brother, the victim?
-Your Honor.
-No, I didn't.
You didn't murder him?
You'll accuse Ms. Yang of murder?
Yes. In order to get
a true testimony out of her,
I'm going to pressure her
to make a false testimony.
It's called a leading question.
No, I didn't.
According to the evidence
we have gathered,
we were informed that Ms. Yang
and the victim were not on good terms.
Contrary to his reputation in the media,
the victim had
a promiscuous love life.
So the witness had to clean up
the mess after the victim.
The witness
couldn't put up with it anymore
and killed her brother.
Isn't this true, Ms. Yang?
-I said I didn't!
-Ms. Yang!
Please speak up.
I was just trying to cover it up.
I was just trying to cover up
the monstrous acts my brother committed.
When I arrived at his house,
my brother was already murdered.
On TV, a video was on play,
which had the evil things
my brother did to women.
So I tainted every piece of evidence
and set it up
to look like a murder by a robber.
I was trying to uphold my family
and my brother's reputation.
Is that so wrong?
Wouldn't you have done
the same thing, Mr. Noh?
Then who preserves
the reputation of women
that your brother trampled on?
Due to the fabricated pieces of evidence,
an innocent man
was unfairly framed for murder.
Who will uphold his rights?
You did great, Mr. Noh.
Yes, you too.
Mr. Noh.
There aren't enough bath supplies
on the first floor
He should at least take off his tie
and sleep.
Done.
I wasn't trying to undress you.
I mean, I was just trying to
take off your tie for you.
Why do I always stutter so much?
I promise that I was only
trying to take off your tie.
Please trust me.
Bye, then.
Bong-hui, I'm sorry.
But please
Please stay with me for five minutes.
Sleep tight.
Where's Ji-uk?
He should be downstairs by now.
Move out of the way.
What's wrong with you?
COURT IN SESSION
Considering the overall story
which was investigated
based on the legally selected evidence,
it is difficult to prove
that the defendant
robbed and murdered the victim,
Yang Jin-wu.
There is also no evidence
to prove otherwise.
Thus, the fact of crime
does not meet the burden of proof.
Ergo, under Criminal Procedure Act
Article 325,
I find him not guilty.
-Here you go.
-Thanks.
The smell of soju is so strong.
Thank you.
Everyone, it's a great day.
Here.
Here's to our first victory--
and Jung Hyeon-su's freedom.
-Cheers!
-Cheers!
Congratulations.
-Thank you.
-That's great.
Great.
There's too much soju.
Gosh, the soju is so strong.
Just drink it.
What are you doing?
Nothing. I was just
I was just enjoying the breeze.
It's so gentle.
You feel a bit uncomfortable, don't you?
The real culprit didn't get caught yet.
To be exact,
it's only the beginning, not the end.
You're right.
But that's the prosecution's job.
Not ours.
You're right.
-Look.
-What?
What's this?
What? A song?
Yes.
Ms. Lack of Evidence.
You're the youngest one.
You should do as you're told.
Okay, fine.
Hey, Bong-hui. Stop it.
Don't sing. Just sit still.
Why?
Why? Why won't you let her sing?
Don't make her sing.
Why won't you let me sing?
Well
-Don't you know why?
-I don't.
My goodness, what should I do with you?
Fine, go
Go ahead. Do as you wish.
One, two, three, four.
My goodness, my goodness, don't do this
A woman's heart is like reed
No, please, don't ask me why
-My goodness.
-You should no longer
Want anything from me
I met you for the first time today
But you are my love
Although we will become strangers
If we break up
Hello?
-Yes, I'm Noh Ji-uk.
-I like you
-That case is over
-I love you
I love you like it's a lie
-Like a fairy tale
-No, I'll meet you there.
Why? Do you need to go somewhere?
Yes, I'll be right back.
I'll give my everything
-If it's for you
-Gosh, she
Don't drink too much.
PLEASE CALL ME AT THIS NUMBER
An alibi?
Yes, there was a guy
drinking alone that night.
-You remember, right?
-Yes.
Not many people drink alone,
so I remember him clearly.
-Oh, really?
-Yes.
We have a video.
We took a video that night.
One, two, three.
It's a video.
Seriously?
-He got us.
-Did I?
Here it is.
-Happy birthday.
-Thank you.
Well By any chance,
was there any other guy than this guy?
I'm not sure.
We stayed here for quite a while,
but we don't think we saw another guy.
I see.
That's strange.
MAY 20, 2017, BIRTHDAY
In the afternoon of the incident,
since the weather was great,
I went for a walk to the park.
Girls were having fun with the balloons
and running about.
They were so cute.
I remembered The Usual Suspects
was being re-released.
So I went to the movies
to catch that film.
I came back
because the schedule didn't fit mine.
And
I had the street food for my lunch
on that day.
I had tteokbokki.
I had good coffee though.
I had tteokbokki and cafe mocha.
I added whipped cream
on top of the coffee.
And I had a drink by myself at a bar
that I visit sometimes.
I usually drink alone.
By the way, at the bar, a couple
had a birthday party on that day.
They brought a birthday cake with candles.
This was Jung Hyeon-su's full account
of what he did
on the day of the incident.
He actually listed alibis
without making it explicit.
Hello, I'd like fries and beer.
From here on, it's only
my imagination and speculation.
Jung Hyeon-su was here
sometime after the incident
and happened to see
the photo as well as the note.
He has a good memory,
so after getting arrested unexpectedly
On May 20, the day of the incident,
you were off duty.
We went through all the CCTV footages
from your neighborhood
and found out that you left home early
and came back late at night.
Please give me a full account
of what you did that day.
Don't leave anything out.
That day, I
He remembered this photo
and the notes he saw that day,
then fabricated a believable story
of what he did that day.
He staged himself in busy or crowded areas
so that we can't easily confirm it.
What's he trying to hide
by telling such a lie?
Bong-hui, I heard there are classes
that correct tone-deafness.
Hey, come on.
I told you that correcting a thing or two
won't even make a difference.
From head to toe, everything about her
needs to be fixed.
Forget it.
I just need to find out one thing.
What? What is it?
-The melody that the killer sang?
-What?
That can't even serve as evidence.
Still, I have to find out.
Listen up.
Again?
How pretty.
SHOE REPAIR
If someone can recognize that melody,
I swear that person must be a genius.
She's pretty good.
Hyeon-su, you must be very drunk
right now.
Are you saying you can tell
what song it is?
Well, no. That I don't know.
-I'm doomed.
-I was just kidding.
Mr. Byeon.
-Yes.
-I'll be sure to find him.
They say when the guilty goes free,
the judge is guilty.
It means when a criminal is acquitted,
the judge, prosecutor,
and lawyer who set him free
are all guilty.
If I
helped a criminal get acquitted,
it would be you,
Jung Hyeon-su.
If you never find out who I am,
I'll always be good to you.
I've gotten used to seeing him
as only my boss.
I ended my one-sided love as well.
Shall I help you? Come a little closer.
I know who bought the shoes.
What if something happened to you?
What would you have done?
And what about me?
What could I have done?
