Suspicious Partner (2017) s01e08 Episode Script

Episode 8

1
Hello, I'd like fries and beer.
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.
Great!
-Do you like the flowers?
-Yes.
There is a Latin epigram.
"If it's false in one thing,
then it's false in everything."
Mr. Jung Hyeon-su,
who
are you?
Mr. Noh.
Where are you going?
I thought you already left.
But I came back.
You should drink with me too.
I already drank a lot.
Just have one more drink. Let's go.
Gosh.
Goodness.
Gosh.
Family?
I don't have a family.
Everyone in my family
left for some reason.
What about you, Mr. Noh?
Well, mine too.
Let's just say,
something similar happened.
Okay.
-Have a shot.
-Thank you.
Pour me one.
Oh, right. Do you have a girlfriend?
A girlfriend? I don't have a girlfriend.
Why? Will you introduce a girl to me,
Mr. Noh?
-No.
-I see.
The only girl I know is
Ms. Eun here. So I don't think
I can introduce a girl to you.
You know how people ask questions
about your personal life
when they want to be friends with you.
-Oh, that was the point.
-Yes.
Do you have a girlfriend, Mr. Noh?
Goodness.
You totally got me with that one.
You said people ask questions
to be closer.
-I want to be friends with you.
-Right, I said that.
I see you two playing truth or dare.
Let me in too.
I love playing truth or dare.
Wait, we played it
a little while ago though.
I like playing truth or dare too.
I love Ji-uk!
Beep. Truth.
What's going on?
Are you awake?
I sincerely apologize. They're just
all crazy. If you think of them
as crazy people,
-you'll feel at ease.
-No, it's fine.
I love it when people are having fun
like this. It's great.
It's very fun
and infuriating at the same time.
-I'll pour you one.
-Thank you.
-This is nice.
-Indeed.
Water
Water is here.
Water
I need water again.
Am I
dreaming right now?
My gosh!
I heard
it's great for hangovers.
Mr. Bang, I really Mr. Bang!
You know that I'm very fond of you,
right? You need to know that.
What should I do now?
I said I can do anything I set my mind to.
I told myself that I'd give up
my feelings for him.
I need to wake up.
Well, I just
took water and medicine to her
because you asked me to.
She was disappointed to the point
that she was about to cry.
She really did that?
My gosh.
I'll scold her.
Just don't get scolded from her.
You can't scold her.
And it looks like you got the wrong idea.
I'm not complaining to you about Ms. Eun.
I'm complaining about Mr. Noh
who's right in front of me now.
Why What do you mean?
I have no idea what's going on
between you two.
You said you have another favor to ask.
Oh, right.
It's about Jung Hyeon-su.
Please run some background check on him.
You mean, our former client,
Jung Hyeon-su?
Yes.
Keep it confidential.
Why are you digging up information
on him confidentially?
Just to double-check. You know how I am.
Gosh, you still
think you're the prosecutor.
You have an issue.
If it could be fixed easily,
it wouldn't be an issue.
Goodness, you sure have a way with words.
Just think of it as conducting
a light background check.
All right. Got it.
Wait, Mr. Bang.
Well
I'm grateful.
For what?
You know.
Everything.
You gave up being a civil servant
and joined my firm like this.
I'll be sure to pay you well enough.
Running the firm alone
must be financially challenging.
Mr. Byeon is rich, you know.
He won't take his money to his grave.
I'm very happy here.
I'm working with wonderful people
at a great firm.
I'm really content here.
What's the one thing
you regret the most in your life?
Submitting my letter of resignation,
coming here, and meeting all of you.
-You should get back to work.
-All right.
Do you need me
to check on Jung Hyeon-su right away?
I'm the only paralegal here,
so I have so much work to do.
Right, you can do it
when your time allows.
I'll see what I can do.
My gosh.
What about Jung Hyeon-su?
What are you looking into?
Why don't you ask Mr. Noh directly?
What about Jung Hyeon-su?
Oh, it's
-Jung Hyeon-su is
-Yes.
Well
Mr. Noh.
I'm over the moon.
I'm so thankful.
Whenever I saw Jung Hyeon-su,
I felt as if I was looking at myself.
I was once pegged as a murder suspect
and was locked up, you know.
I felt as if I was looking
at myself from that time.
Thanks to that experience,
I could get him his freedom back.
I think it's so cool.
I also feel truly rewarded.
Gosh.
I'm so happy.
Mr. Noh.
What are you looking into?
Well
You don't need to know about it yet.
What is it? Why are you saying
I don't need to know it yet?
Well, if I tell you the reason,
it'll become something you need to know.
He was my client too.
Why wouldn't you tell me?
Because I don't want to tell you.
Because I say so. Okay?
-No, we're not.
-Whatever.
Oh, right.
How's
your hangover? Are you okay now?
I won't tell you.
How can you be so disrespectful
to your mentor--
Mentees take after their mentors.
I'm like this because I learned from you.
That's not true.
You were always like this.
-I was?
-Yes.
-That was such nonsense.
-Darn it.
"Darn it"? You little
These inquiries are
all from Mr. Ji's clients.
The two of you here
should either do pro bono work
or apply to become public defenders.
For now, I'll use my connections
I built back in my
Hey.
Are your stomachs all right?
The last thing we ate, the sausage
or whatever it was Gosh.
That killed me.
It's coming up. I can feel it coming up.
Gosh, you made me feel nauseous.
I feel like I'm about to throw up.
We should quit drinking.
-I agree.
-Me too.
If I drink ever again,
you can call me her son.
You'll have a son soon, Ms. Eun.
I don't want a son like him.
What? Why not?
What's wrong with me?
I'm handsome and rich, you fool!
I just want his money.
Let's split it.
Why you
Can we please have a proper meeting
just once at least?
That's my earnest wish
at the moment, okay?
I'm back.
What now? What's wrong?
Did you guys upset Ji-uk again?
Did the trial go well?
Of course. You know me.
Oh, right. Make yourselves available
this evening.
I'll treat you all.
I got an exquisite bottle
of wine as a gift.
I have champagne too.
I'll prepare whatever you guys want.
Everyone is available, right?
I need to use the washroom.
The meeting is over.
Over.
Well
You're all in, right?
You must know why you're here now.
Yes.
For alleged destruction
of evidence and perjury.
I'm not sure if you're aware
that those are serious crimes.
Then shall we begin?
Just a second.
I can't help but think that
something is strange.
Why did you hide
the picture frame?
Something's in there, isn't it?
I think there is.
You can tell me that much, can't you?
"But if out in the country,
a man happens to meet a young woman
pledged to be married and rapes her,
only the man who has done this shall die."
The more I think about it,
the more I can't understand why.
Why did that culprit
do such a terrible thing
to Hui-jun and me?
That's because
you witnessed something
you shouldn't have.
But unfortunately, you weren't there.
And you couldn't recognize me
when you encountered me.
I'm going to continue
to keep my eyes on you.
If you never find out who I am,
I'll always be good to you.
LAWYER EUN BONG-HUI
Hello?
Ms. Eun, it's me.
I was taking a walk in the park by myself.
As I was freely walking around,
I suddenly felt sorry and thankful
towards you. That's why I called.
There's no need for you to think that way.
Thanks to you, I finally feel like
I became a proper lawyer.
It feels great.
-You startled me.
-Is it Jung Hyeon-su?
Yes.
Sure. Of course. We should meet sometime.
Oh, really? Yes, okay.
Yes. Really?
Yes, I'm listening.
Yu-jeong, why are you crying
like a baby in the hallway?
Why are you shedding tears in the hallway?
One day, I'm going to teach you
how to say things nicely, Ji-hae.
-Gosh.
-I see. Okay.
She seemed so cool
when I didn't know her that well.
Now that I do, she's quite
a disappointment.
I'm starting to lose my respect for her.
Yes, okay.
Gosh, what's wrong with you?
I was just curious. Why did he call?
He just called to thank me.
He wants to meet me since he's thankful.
I also have all the right to hear
and gain his gratitude.
I really did my best in court.
So let's meet him together.
I'll tell Jung Hyeon-su
to personally give you a call.
I'll tell him to thank you.
So you're meeting him by yourself?
-Can't I?
-You can't.
-Why not?
-We defended him together.
My gosh, I'm sorry.
We should meet him together, right?
Together
Why are you afraid to get on the elevator?
Don't
lay a hand on her.
What?
I understand.
I'm sure you need someone to hate.
You probably need someone to blame.
But you shouldn't cross the line.
If you ever try to hurt her again,
I'm not a lowly person like you are,
so I'll press legal charges on you.
But sometimes
I do tend to become a bit barbarous.
Are you threatening me again?
Yes. I'm threatening you.
So listen to me carefully.
If you ever hurt Bong-hui again
I'm going to do the exact
same thing to you.
So
don't touch her.
By the way,
you should take the elevator
for executives in the future.
You're only making your employees
feel uncomfortable.
Bong-hui, let me explain what happened.
Don't ever meddle in my business again.
How is that just your business?
It's mine too.
It's mine,
but it also became yours
because you decided to interfere.
So this ends now.
-You're mistaken.
-No, I'm not.
You are.
Even if we were strangers,
this still would have been something
I should care about and solve.
You already suffered a loss by doing that.
You lost your job as a prosecutor
and quit the law firm.
What more can you go through?
Do you enjoy suffering?
You're right.
But regardless of what happened,
it was a choice I made for myself.
None of it was your fault.
Now that I think of it,
you might be right.
About us being
in an ill-fated relationship.
-Bong-hui, I didn't mean
-This is a warning.
I'm really angry.
Just like how I respect
and listen to what you say to me,
I ask that
you respect and comply
with my wishes as well.
I can't stop having feelings for him.
This is too difficult.
I'm not really fit for this.
All right. Why don't all of us go home
on time for once?
Just like I said before,
I will treat everyone dinner today.
No.
Everyone is still hung over,
and it's a mess.
Everyone isn't feeling well today.
I thought so.
You guys
ate the whole cake
without asking me first.
I'm going to catch you!
Happy birthday,
Eun-hyeok.
Let's see.
Yu-jeong.
Happy birthday.
Three of us used to come here often.
So I accidentally stopped by here.
When I was passing by,
I saw you by chance.
I'll just move along by chance.
Why don't I do this?
Can I sit here by any chance?
My legs hurt.
No.
I said you can't.
I got it.
Hey, Eun-hyeok,
Happy Birthday.
Mr. Ji,
Happy Birthday.
Goodness.
H
Oh, fuck!
-Sorry?
-What?
That wasn't directed at you, Bong-hui.
I don't care even if it was meant for me.
Hey
MY JI-UK
H
This is
what I told Ji-uk.
I told him that I left
because his love wasn't enough.
-What?
-I know.
I regret what I said.
There's no point in regretting it.
You already said it.
You can't take back what you said.
You're right. It was my fault.
But I wished you guys
didn't hate me this much.
Do you hate me that much?
Yes.
Whom
do you hate the most in this world?
Is it among one of us?
I
really hate this person.
I really do.
But despite my hatred
I have a person
whom I can't dislike nor hate.
I don't like you.
You jerk.
Happy Birthday.
What are you doing?
Hey.
What happened?
You barely make mistakes.
Why were there my footprints
and a button which I didn't
even leave behind?
-Why?
-I don't know either.
I think I must have been flustered
and made a mistake.
A mistake?
A mistake?
I get it. Anyone can make a mistake.
Hey.
Just once.
-They can make only one mistake.
-But
But what? What is it?
It's nothing.
-It's nothing?
-Yes, it's nothing.
If this ever happens again,
it won't be considered as a mistake.
It will be your intention to betray,
fool, and stab me in the back.
Then what should I do now?
Hey.
Hey, look at me.
Look at me.
We need to continue what we've been doing.
Right?
Three people have disappeared,
and four people will disappear.
Help me out until then.
That's the only way you'll pay
for your mistake, Chan-ho. Right?
Do you agree with me or not?
What was that, you punk?
My gosh.
Get going. Bye.
I guess he can't fall asleep again.
Mr. Bang, can I have the files?
You mean these files?
Thank you.
I think staying as it is now
isn't that bad.
I've gotten used to seeing him
as only my boss.
I'm glad.
I ended my one-sided love as well.
-You ended it?
-Yes.
I won't like him anymore.
I will just be his fan.
You know how the celebrities
have a fan club?
It's similar to that.
I will like him as a fan.
How is that different from having a crush?
It's different. I don't have
any expectation.
No, as a fan, I can't expect
anything from him.
I just admire him.
Well, I can understand that.
I'm not joking. I think
I really have put an end
to loving him in a romantic way.
I am
about 98 percent over him.
I think I'll love him
until the day I die.
If that's the case,
shall I help you?
Help me what?
No one knows better than I am
how it feels to just admire someone.
That's a bit sad.
Isn't it?
Then
come a little closer.
Sorry?
Then start laughing.
-Laugh?
-Yes.
There's a reason for it. Hurry.
Laugh.
What is this? Just like this?
What about you?
-Come closer.
-This is a bit weird.
Laugh.
Good job. You ought to act your age now.
What on earth is this?
Darn it.
Hey! Hey, you jerks.
Why am I doing the dishes here
day in day out?
You should win the Ghost Leg game then.
I won't play that game ever again.
You got that, punks?
Where are you meeting Jung Hyeon-su?
I'm going to meet him in his neighborhood.
I couldn't find anything.
Just like he said,
he doesn't have any family members.
He doesn't have any acquaintances.
Then can you check if anyone
from his deceased
family members or acquaintances
was a victim of a crime?
Yes, sir.
You quit your job?
Yes.
I was on a contract anyway,
and I was held
in the detention center too.
I understand what you went through
and how you must have felt.
I think I could be of help to you.
No, that's all right.
I can't be a hassle to you anymore.
I didn't get to pay you a lot
for the legal fee.
But I'll buy you meals from time to time
to make up for it.
All right then. I will let you
buy me meals from time to time.
I will buy you meals too.
Mr. Noh.
Oh, my goodness.
How can this
What are the chances of meeting you here?
Call me if you need help anytime.
Don't mind if I do.
Please do. Don't be a stranger.
-I'll get going then.
-Bye.
Take care now.
Mr. Noh.
What are you trying to pull?
What do you mean? What?
This is all but a coincidence.
As if.
All right. I followed you here. So what?
-Why did you follow me?
-It's because
I just wanted to.
Tell me what you are not telling me.
Tell me what you and Mr. Bang
are keeping from me
and what is wrong with Jung Hyeon-su.
What are your suspicions?
Family?
I don't have a family.
Everyone in my family left
for some reason.
Oh, right. Do you have a girlfriend?
A girlfriend? I don't have a girlfriend.
-I see.
-Why?
Will you introduce a girl to me?
You know how people
ask questions about your personal life
when they want to be friends with you.
How can this
What are the chances of meeting you here?
Mr. Noh?
Yes.
So
it's only a bad hunch now.
On what grounds?
His alibi is
Answer it.
I'm sorry.
Yes, Mom.
I'm going now.
Okay. I got it.
I had plans with my Mom.
You said something about his alibi.
No, it's all right.
Let's talk when you get back.
Let's do that then.
I'll get going now.
Come on.
My firm's CEO?
He's awesome.
Is he handsome? Is he single?
Does he have a girlfriend?
-He's handsome.
-Really?
He has broad shoulders,
and he is very understanding.
His eyes gleam like stars.
On the back of his head,
there's a light bulb.
A light bulb?
A halo. Like a light.
It shines like this.
Goodness, you are giving me goosebumps.
You are being so childish now.
It's too much.
Gosh, she's making me want to vomit.
I think he was born to give me
a heart attack.
Bong-hui.
He makes my heart beat irregularly
every single time.
I turn into a little girl
every single time.
But he rejected me.
Why?
That's just how it ended.
So are you going to give up?
Do you think you'll be able
to meet another person
you can like that much?
You don't think I can?
She's head over heels for him.
A guy like that doesn't exist.
Except for my son.
Son!
Son!
I could've met you inside.
Why did you want to meet here?
There are some weird women inside.
Even just one of them is scary enough.
When they're together,
they really scare me.
What kind of women are they?
I was getting a bit of cabin fever inside.
I get to lock arms with you
and see your face like this.
It's so nice.
My goodness.
You've lost weight.
Did something happen?
Has work been very stressful?
No, I'm fine.
I rarely get to see you these days.
I'm sorry I couldn't visit you often.
I'm so fascinated from time to time.
When did you grow up like this?
I know, right?
It seems like only yesterday
that you were crying in my arms
because you couldn't fall asleep.
It's okay.
It's all right, Ji-uk.
I won't go anywhere.
I'm right here for you.
I'll never leave you.
I'll never disappear.
I'll always stay right by your side.
Sleep tight.
Sleep tight.
You've grown so much, son.
No.
-I don't feel like I've grown at all.
-Why not?
Just because
I'm a coward.
Gosh, no way.
You should get back to work.
I guess you're busy.
All right. See you.
Let's have a meal next time.
Promise!
It must be
related in some way.
There's also no specific evidence to prove
that the defendant committed murder.
Therefore, the defendant
also can't be accused of murder.
That is all, Your Honor.
Oh, hello.
What brings you here?
Are you here to ask me
for another personal favor?
No, I'm just Well
There's something I'm curious about.
What is it?
By any chance
did you know Chef Yang Jin-wu personally?
-No.
-Then you must know Jung Hyeon-su.
No, I don't.
Then why did you attend
every trial of his?
I had to attend another trial
as a witness.
As an investigator, I have to sometimes.
I can just do a quick check
to find out whether that's true or not.
At first, I just wondered
if you knew Jung Hyeon-su
or Yang Jin-wu personally.
I was hoping
that you'd just be
an acquaintance of one of them.
But now I'm certain
that there's something.
Call me anytime.
I'll help you if there's anything
I can do for you.
I'll wait for your call.
JUNG TRANSFERED TO PROSECUTION
FOR MURDER BY A ROBBER
AFFIDAVI
If Jung Hyeon-su
really killed Yang Jin-wu,
there has to be a motive.
Yes, Noh Ji-uk speaking.
It's me.
You were looking for something.
The frame that was missing
from Chef Yang's house.
We found it.
We seized and searched
Professor Yang's house.
Will you come and see it?
Can you
send it to me?
You know that it can't get out.
It's evidence.
Come and see it if you still need to.
I'll be there.
PROSECUTOR CHA YU-JEONG
Hey, you came.
Yes.
Let me see the photo first.
Okay.
It's a verse from the bible.
DEUTERONOMY 22:25
And I found this.
IF A MAN RAPES HER, ONLY THE MAN SHALL DIE
DEUTERONOMY 22:25
This is
Was it an act of revenge, then?
Probably.
Hello, it's been a long time.
There's something I need to tell you.
Me?
By any chance, have you
found out something?
Yes.
Really? What is it?
I know
who bought you the shoes.
Who is it?
Okay. I'll leave right now.
LAWYER NOH JI-UK
This is what we got from the frame.
Nothing was found, right?
Sadly, yes.
DNA ANALYSIS REPOR
The number you have dialed
cannot be reached at the moment.
Please leave a message after the tone.
FINGERPRINT ANALYSIS REPOR
-You're just going to leave?
-Yes.
Thanks for letting me see this. Bye.
BONG-HUI: I'M ON MY WAY TO HANMU PARK
TO MEET GO CHAN-HO
LAWYER NOH JI-UK
Hey, Hyeon-su.
Where are you, Chan-ho?
Well, I came outside for a bit.
I see.
This place is so huge and dark.
I called because I had trouble
finding you.
I think I found you now.
Gosh.
There you are.
My gosh.
You startled me.
I thought I was going to have
a heart attack.
I'm the one who should be saying that.
Bong-hui, are you out of your mind?
How could you
come to a place like this by yourself?
Even if you could be thoughtless
at times, this is just too much.
You should know better
after going through so much.
What if
What if something happened to you?
What were you going to do?
What would you have done?
And what about me?
What could I have done?
My gosh, Bong-hui.
You're troublesome.
You're a nuisance. Do you know that?
Then what was I supposed to do?
He called me over urgently,
and you weren't picking up your phone.
You should've waited for me.
I did wait for you.
I was going to go by myself,
but it felt so wrong.
It felt like something could happen,
and I thought you might scold me.
Most of all,
I was scared.
So I walked back here
on my way inside the park.
I came back and waited for you here.
I'm sorry.
Do you mean it?
Yes, I do.
Let's see if you're telling the truth.
You are telling the truth.
Mr. Noh.
