Dalah: Death and the Flowers (2025) s01e02 Episode Script

1
-Be careful, it’s hot.
-Yes.
-Go. Quickly.
-Yes, ma’am.
-Hey, Pete, are you hungover?
-Yeah, so dizzy.
We’ve got a family wedding today,
and instead of getting up early to help,
you slept in, like always.
What kind of in-law are you?
Since you're such an early riser,
what have you helped with this morning?
Oh wait, you helped yourself…
to breakfast.
Eldest in-law.
Let me give you a little lesson.
If your family’s up so early,
finish your breakfast quickly
and help with the preparations,
like a good in-law should.
Thanks, Jib.
I did my part last night.
Pa,
I already sorted out the flowers issue.
I made sure
they’re using only the big tulips
and removed some of the roses
so the numbers match.
Thank you.
Actually,
I crumpled up some of the roses too.
-What’s so funny?
-Who does that?
I did that to make sure
our flowers stand out more.
Wow, what an effort!
Definitely deserving
of the "Best In-Law" award.
Jib, save that tone
for lecturing your son.
Maybe then he’ll be
as good as our daughter,
so our family will have some hope.
It’s already this late,
and he’s still not up.
How did you raise him?
But your sister isn’t here either, Sak.
Now that we’re going to have
a Chinese in-law,
we suddenly
start eating porridge for breakfast.
More like Lamduan knows
it’s good for a hangover.
Well, Mr. Pete and Mr. Sit
threw up a lot last night.
Where were you last night?
You two look like a mess.
Well,
we went bar-hopping around Thong Lor.
He dragged me to the first bar,
then we moved to another.
We woke up not remembering
how many bars we went to.
Drinking is an art.
What do you prefer anyway?
Beer? Whisky? Brandy?
Bourbon? Or gin?
You look like a "Jean" person.
You couldn’t get enough
of "Jean" last night.
Stop trying to turn
my son into you, Uncle.
Father would be so damn proud.
Big Brother,
I’m not even half of what Ohm is.
Pam, easy.
Pam, what happened to your face?
I fell.
At the floral studio?
You should be more careful.
Lamduan, could you come and treat her cut?
Lamduan.
I can look after myself.
Hey.
Has Ohm already gone to the hotel?
I haven’t seen him.
Why isn’t Risa here yet?
It’s her wedding today.
Kris too.
These two do everything together.
Aren’t they unusually close?
Risa is Kris’ aunt. What’s so unusual
about them being close?
It’s more than just "close".
Nonsense.
Great-grandson.
It looks good on you.
No need to return it.
Well, you have a great taste,
Great-Grandma.
What are you guys talking about?
I heard my name.
We're just wondering
where your aunt is.
Oh.
She has gone to have
her makeup done since morning.
She should be at the hotel.
Make sure my grandson's face
isn't washed out in the flash.
Excuse me.
Hello.
Kris, why so quiet?
I’m just curious.
No one in the family
knows what Risa is up to,
but you seem to know all her movements.
Is there something going on?
Something’s wrong, Pop?
Even Ohm doesn’t seem to know
Risa’s story as much as you do,
Kris.
Isn’t that strange?
Why are you acting so weird?
What's going on?
Can anyone reach Ohm?
Dad, what happened?
Anybody know where Risa is?
I'm telling you to be cautious.
In case something happens.
I’m asking you, what happened?
The police called…
I don't know about Aunt Risa
more than anyone else here.
I just know that on your wedding day,
you have to get your makeup done
in the morning.
Is there anything other than that?
They said…
-What did you say?
-That's not true!
-What the hell?
-That can't be true.
I was tired
and slept like a log last night.
Jae Som's call woke me up.
She said someone found
Mr. Anusorn's body in my studio.
What time did she call you?
Perhaps around 6 a.m.?
Please carry on.
Then I called Risa,
his bride.
But I haven’t been able to reach her.
Find her.
-Immediately.
-Yes, sir.
The family is on their way
to see the body.
What’s going on inside?
Mr. Ekapop, care to make a statement?
No press allowed.
-Please answer.
-Please.
-Mr. Anusorn was shot in the abdomen.
-No press allowed.
That was the cause of death.
We didn’t find any gun at the scene.
-Ohm, my brother…
-Go wait in the car.
Who did this?
Forensics will need to examine
the scratches on the arm
and the cuts on the victim’s face.
We’re following protocol, sir.
I want a more capable detective.
But this is my jurisdiction, sir.
I don’t care.
Montree.
A shocking and tragic incident
took place early this morning.
Dr. Anusorn Uathepa was found dead.
He was running as a PM candidate
under the For Thai Society Party.
He’s the only son of Mr. Ekapop Uathepa,
former chief of staff
at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Our reporter is now at the crime scene.
Turn up the volume!
Let’s hear the latest update.
Hi, Miss Thapana. What’s the situation?
The police are questioning some people
involved with the floral studio.
The motivation is still unclear.
The high-profile wedding
between Dr. Anusorn
-and Dr. Narisa Tangsinsup
-Pond, check this.
was scheduled for today.
-It is absolutely shocking
-What?
-that Dr. Anusorn
-Watch!
-was killed on his wedding day.
-Mew, check the news!
Do you think the motivation
is personal…
What!
…or political?
Risa.
Risa.
Have you seen the news?
Open the door. Are you okay?
LEK
Noomnim isn’t picking up.
Pa.
Ohm is dead.
WHO KILLED OHM?
IS THAI POLITICS THIS BRUTAL?
PITY OHM WAS STILL YOUNG AND HO
WHAT A LOSS OF OPPORTUNITY AND TIME
The body is undergoing an autopsy.
There’s still no statement
from the For Thai Society Party.
But this is expected to have
a huge impact on their election campaign.
We have to wait
for the police investigation.
What’s the party’s next move?
-We haven’t decided anything.
-Will there be a new candidate?
We do not have any clear answers.
-Sorry.
-What's your opinion
on this tragic incident?
As a leader and representative
of the Thai Prosperity Party,
we extend our condolences
to the Uathepa family
for the loss of Mr. Anusorn Uathepa
in this tragic homicide.
-No interview.
-The country has lost a young man
who displayed immense potential.
The whole nation is completely shocked.
Dr. Anusorn Uathepa
was a beacon of hope
to the young generation.
His campaign has attracted
a lot of interest.
The image of hope is one thing,
but let’s not forget that Dr. Anusorn
was also instrumental in planning
the new community mall at Uathepa Square.
Is our business affected by any of this?
Pong?
I don’t think so, Pa.
We’ve already received their land as dowry
since the engagement day.
It’s even better for us now
that we don’t have to care
about his politics.
We can now ignore the protest
and turn the Square
into a mall as planned.
You're right.
Hmm…
I can help handle the donations
for Ohm's funeral expenses.
Jib.
Money is the responsibility
of the senior family members.
Pha is right.
I will talk to them myself.
Well,
has anyone found out where Risa is?
Uh…
Kris has already gone to find her.
No need to worry, Pa.
All the more reason to worry.
She's still inside?
Yes. It’s been hours. Her phone’s off too.
Here.
Noomnim.
Risa.
Noomnim, it's me.
Mr. Kris, there’s no need to worry.
Miss Risa just wants to be alone.
Still a little girl.
-Sir.
-Hello, sir.
-Please say something, sir.
-How are you feeling, sir?
Good morning. This way, sir.
Sir, please answer the question.
-Lead the way.
-Pocket Police.
Excuse us.
Sir.
Sir.
Can we get a photo?
This way, sir. She’s waiting inside.
Good morning, sir.
Miss Dalah Rose.
Didn’t you hear
anything unusual last night?
I heard an electrical transformer explode.
Then I went to bed.
So, nobody heard a gunshot?
There were fireworks going off all night.
Jae Som.
When did you call Dalah about the body?
Around 6 a.m.
You were at the studio last night?
Yes, but I left first.
Dalah was still there
with the bride and groom…
and there was also a girl, a cousin?
Pam.
You know Pam?
I’m the only one asking questions here.
They came to check out the flowers
because we had some problems
with the tulips.
Why was Pam there?
I just tagged along with Uncle Ohm.
I’d talked to him about his campaign
and wanted to discuss it some more,
so I followed him to the floral studio.
Where did you get that scratch?
I tripped and fell
when I was running to my girlfriend's car.
Didn’t want her to wait.
Why didn’t you go home with Ohm or Risa
since you came with them?
I had already talked to Uncle Ohm.
I had already looked at the flowers.
The adults were boring.
Still unnecessary to call her.
Okay.
I’ll tell you the truth.
My girlfriend was itching for it.
Itching?
PAM'S FOOTPRIN
Pam left at around 10:30 p.m.
That’s the same time
Mr. Ekapop and Mrs. Prapha
approved my adjusted floral design.
Then they left as well.
Why did Mrs. Prapha come
instead of Mr. Kitja?
You think Pa had to come
and check the flowers himself?
Since he has me,
the most dependable in-law?
I’m the eldest in-law.
It’s natural that he lets me
look after his interests.
How did you get there?
I drove my wife there
and waited in the car.
-Any eyewitness?
-I came out to see Mrs. Prapha off.
See you tomorrow.
See you.
I didn’t see anyone in the car.
I was taking a nap on the reclined seat.
That’s why no one saw me.
But I saw Kris.
Mr. Kris was also there.
He was talking to Risa.
They were in the garden outside.
It looked like they were arguing.
My aunt and I
had an argument about my work.
Aunt?
Miss Narisa.
What kind of work?
The music for the feminist campaign.
Creative differences.
You disagree with the feminist idea?
When did I say that?
And after that?
I wasn’t at the crime scene.
I was home with Pong.
I was at home with Jib.
I was in my room, using my iPad.
-Thanks.
-Lek was with me.
Last night,
I was with Pete at a bar in Thong Lor.
Come on, Grand-Uncle.
We were plastered.
Remember nothing.
I was on the phone
with my secretary
about my foundation work.
Grandma was with me. You can ask her.
I was at home with A-Mae.
I mean Kris' great-grandmother.
-We watched Korean series…
-Oppa, you need to let me go.
-And ate chestnuts together.
-Why, Yeon Seo?
Pop.
I already told you when I first called.
I went to check the flowers
and settle the payment.
Then I came home.
I didn’t see Ohm at the studio.
But Dalah said Ohm and Risa were there.
When was your last conversation
with Mr. Anusorn?
I can’t remember.
No one was in the studio when I came back.
Then I saw Narisa and Kris
go their separate ways.
And Mr. Anusorn?
I saw him drive out around 11 p.m.
I locked the studio
and came back in at about 11:30 p.m.
I had no idea
why Mr. Anusorn returned to the studio
or to meet whom or at what time.
You said you locked the studio.
How could Anusorn get inside?
It’s a digital lock.
I gave everyone the passcode
when we first arrived.
At 9:30 p.m., Ohm, Risa, Dalah,
and Pam were at the studio first.
They’re beautiful.
Then Pam went out to talk to Ohm
near the toilet outside the studio.
I want to ask you
about your feminist campaign.
Sure.
What do you want to know?
Risa stepped out
to the garden at the back,
where she had a fight with Kris.
No idea when he arrived.
Feminist?
I can’t write a song like that.
It’s demeaning to women!
Around the same time,
Mrs. Prapha, Mr. Kittisak, and Mr. Ekapop
arrived at the studio
but left shortly after.
At 10:30 p.m.,
Pam’s girlfriend, Bee, picked her up
from the backstreet entrance
on the garden side.
At 11 p.m.,
Ohm and Narisa left in his car.
The one person
who could tell us everything
is still unreachable.
I heard her family found her.
They said
she's holed up at the hotel.
That's worrying.
Right, about her state of mind.
More like
her possible involvement.
How was it? What have you got?
We still can't conclude anything
until the forensic report determines
the exact time of Ohm's death.
For now,
based on the investigation team's report,
the bullet found in his body
is under examination.
His phone was damaged.
We need to fix it and retrieve the data
as soon as possible.
My investigators at the crime scene
haven’t found any new evidence yet.
Pop.
While we wait for the autopsy report
and other evidence,
I need your permission
to send my men to your house.
We’ll search Ohm’s room
and personal belongings,
in case we find
something useful for the case.
I’ll need your cooperation on this.
I’m sorry for your loss.
I've known Ohm since he was a little boy.
You can rest assured
that we will find justice for him.
I'm heading to the hotel later
to see Narisa.
She doesn’t want to see anyone.
Her boyfriend is dead.
Wouldn't she at least
want to see him one last time?
People handle shock in different ways.
Being shocked is not an excuse.
Can't you even let her grieve?
Ohm didn’t run away, he's dead.
I’ll excuse myself.
Lamduan.
Get Ohm’s room ready for the police.
Understood?
Chief, over here!
Chief, sir!
Chief, sir!
Talk to us, please.
Why are there reporters here too?
-Sir, any updates on Mr. Anusorn’s case?
-Sir, this way.
-Didn’t I tell you all to wait outside?
-Sir, please!
Step back, please!
-What the hell?
-Just one question!
Why did you let them in?
My apology, sir.
This way, please.
-Sir!
-Chief Montree!
This way, sir.
Apologies, sir.
Miss Dalah.
Why are you here?
Chief Montree is--
We’ve already met.
I want to check in on Risa too.
Something feels off.
Miss Narisa!
We’re the police.
Please open the door.
Miss Narisa!
May I try?
Yes.
Risa.
It’s me.
Mr. Sarath.
If you don’t have a spare key,
we’ll have to break in.
I do.
Allow me.
Interesting…
Chief, sir.
CHIEF MONTREE
Good afternoon, members of the press.
I’m here to update you
on the murder of Dr. Anusorn Uathepa
and provide details
about the ongoing investigation.
Even though the police
have yet to recover the murder weapon
or the bullet casing from the crime scene,
we’ve successfully tested
the single bullet that killed Dr. Anusorn.
It was a .38 caliber.
There’s visible damage
to the tip of the bullet.
We’ve matched it with several guns
in the police registry
and have found a certain number
of possible matches.
One of the registered gun owners
on the list
is Miss Narisa Tangsinsup.
Miss Narisa? Really?
Please let me finish.
Miss Narisa has also disappeared,
and we have not been able to locate her.
This justifies the investigation team
issuing a summons.
She must report to the police
to give her statement as soon as possible.
Miss Narisa
killed Mr. Anusorn and ran away?
Well, she's currently only a suspect.
Is she the killer?
Is she, sir?
Please answer.
Don’t put words in my mouth.
-Sir, this way.
-Tell us more, sir.
Please explain.
Sir, please explain.
Sir, please say something.
Chief Montree!
Chief Montree!
Chief! Chief!
Take a look at our video simulation.
If Miss Narisa were standing here,
the bullet's trajectory would have
pierced through Mr. Anusorn’s abdomen.
So cold-blooded.
Right. From such a close range,
the bullet would have caused
significant internal damage like this
to Mr. Anusorn's organs.
-She's so ruthless!
-Right.
Leak photo of Ohm's dead body.
Look.
I TOLD YOU THE WIFE IS THE KILLER
QUEEN OF FAKENESS
Can’t believe
she’d kill her own boyfriend.
She just craves attention, a real bitch!
SHE MUST HAVE A LOVER
WHO'LL BE OUR NEXT PM NOW? ASSHOLE!
#RISATHEMURDERER
Hey, look.
UATHEPARASITE
HOW MANY BODIES WOULD BE ENOUGH?
THE CLOSEST TO YOU IS THE MOST DANGEROUS
#RISAKILLEDOHM
Jaa.
What are you doing?
Mr. Pop asked us
to get Mr. Ohm’s room ready.
The cops are coming.
Cops?
Yeah.
Will you help or not?
She’s a woman,
yet she’s against the campaign!
Narisa is Thai-Chinese.
Did you think marrying into money
means luxury life?
She looks very shifty, doesn't she?
Yes, she seems so insincere.
-True!
-I told you, she did it!
The bitch's family's
already got the dowry,
so she fucking got him.
A real bitch.
Slut.
-Daddy, you're so late.
-Miss you.
She won't take it off
until Daddy sees it first.
Everyone says I'm beautiful.
Of course, my daughter is beautiful.
But…
I smell something funny.
-Really?
-I think
you’d better go take a shower.
Okay. Do I really smell?
All the way here, honey.
Are you hungry?
Not really.
Netizens blast
Chief Montree’s hostile attitude
and his "non-statement" statement.
His inappropriate response
has become a new catchphrase.
"Don’t Put Words into My Mouth."
Money is what she’s after
in this marriage.
-Fake bitch.
-Yeah, right?
Don’t you think, ladies and gents?
Are we right?
Yeah, seems like you guys agree with us.
-How long are you going to listen to this?
-After she got the dowry, she killed him.
-I can’t take it anymore.
-Women these days are unbelievable.
I’ll turn it off.
I’m just monitoring to see
if they mention anything negative
about our family.
I don’t mind if they mention just Risa.
-Prapha!
-Ouch!
Don't you get it?
If they’re saying bad things about Risa,
they’re saying bad things
about our family too.
She’s already engaged to Ohm.
She belongs to that family now, Grandma.
You know what?
I don’t think Risa did it.
When she was a kid,
her goldfish died
and she cried for a whole week.
But when people get older
and love affairs are involved,
they can completely change.
What do you mean?
What love affair?
You didn’t hear this from me, okay?
I didn’t mention it to you, alright?
But when we gave
our statements to the police,
someone was lying.
I was home with Pong.
Lek.
You told me Jib wasn’t home that night.
Was that true?
Yes, Mrs. Pha.
That day,
Mrs. Jib came home really late.
Koon said
she wanted to find Mr. Kris,
so she asked for the car key.
How do you know all this?
We have a group chat.
BRING THE CAR AROUND
MRS. JIB TOOK THE CAR KEYS
But…
What does Jib have to do
with Risa killing Ohm?
Grandma, I really didn’t want to say this,
but Jib has known all along
that Kris and Risa
are in love with each other.
You know,
these two have had
an unusually close relationship
for a while now.
Jib also knows everything.
That’s why she came home,
then drove out again to look for Kris.
Grandma, I thought
I was overthinking things,
so I had Lek investigate further,
and it’s true.
When Risa was getting married,
Kris was upset
and went there to confront her.
My aunt and I
had an argument about my work.
Miss Narisa.
I believe Jib knew.
That’s why she tried to stop them,
but it was probably too late.
What are you saying?
Grandma.
I’m sorry for telling you the truth.
I warned you about taking Jib in.
There’s no way she can raise
her kids well. She’s all Thai--
What’s wrong with that?
What's so fucking wrong with it?
Can’t believe you agree with her, Grandma.
I’m going to bed.
What did you say to Grandma?
I just told her the truth.
What truth?
If you don’t want the police
to know about this scandal,
you’d better tell your father
what his favorite grandson has done.
-What?
-You know what I’m talking about.
And I’m telling you,
I won’t let you have everything
just because you have a son,
a lousy son.
When your brother Sak is the only one
who has worked so hard.
Shut the fuck up!
I won’t!
Tell me, which part isn’t true?
The fact that Sak
is the only one working hard
or that your son Kris
and Narisa are having an affair?
You’re out of your fucking mind.
Come, Grandma. I’ll take you to bed.
If you don’t come to your senses,
I’ll tell the police.
Go ahead.
I’ll wait to see if Pa thanks you
for dragging his favorite grandson
into trouble.
Go on.
Slowly, Ma.
Such a pain in the ass.
WHY ARE THE POLICE SO SCARED OFF?
You’re about to retire.
Why bother with the case?
Look.
People are making their own judgments.
They’re all crazy.

-A hit and run!
-She's a Westerner!
-Westerner. Is she dead?
-Someone call the police!
I didn't know your acting was so good.
You're lucky
I'm a TV series addict.
Hey.
-Yes?
-Go home and rest now.
Tomorrow is a big day
with a troop of press.
Okay.
Finally, you called me.
Dr. Anusorn Uathepa was found dead.
He was running as a PM candidate
under the For Thai Society Party.
What about Noomnim and Kris?
No worries. They were very convincing.
Not only me.
When you came with the police,
your acting was pretty good too.
No.
I wasn't acting.
You're normally deadpan, right?
Here you go.
Let me help.
When blossoms reach their peak in bloom,
some exude a pungent fume.
Yet, we tend to value them by their looks.
When flowers start to droop and wither,
unleashing a scent that chokes us bitter,
as if they sought their silent vengeance
on those who overlooked their scents.
