No matter what your secret is…
PREVIOUSLY
…you have nothing to worry about. You're safe now.
Gale is with Chivas, isn't she?
What if she is? What're you gonna do?
If you suspect that I killed Queen, I didn't do it.
Save it for the police.
You need to stop running.
Just tell the truth to the police.
You want things to get worse than this?
If I betray you,
you can kill me.
What if I told you her secret?
Maybe you'll be the one to send her back to me.
PROF. PHAT
UNBLOCK THIS CALLER
I'm about to leave the studio.
Right, honey. This evening,
I need to attend a meeting with my team
and meet the PM tonight to present the plan.
I think I need to stay up all night.
See you tomorrow at the hospital for an ultrasound at 2 p.m.
Sure.
I promise you that I'll be there, Mon.
My job is important.
But you and the baby are the most important things.
See you later, honey.
Let's go do what I said, okay?
Thank you so much for your time and for joining us today, Professor.
-You're welcome. -Can I make an appointment with you?
When you're appointed,
please visit my show first.
Sure, just talk to my secretary about it.
Sure, I'll do that.
Okay.
GALE
Excuse me.
Sure, sir.
Pom!
Hello, Gale. Where are you?
I really wanted to talk to you but I couldn't reach you.
Gale?
Can you hear me?
Professor.
Gale.
I thought someone else used your number to call me.
Toy saw…
our clip.
I don't know if that could affect you.
I just want to let you know.
Gale.
We shouldn't talk about this over the phone.
Can you come see me?
No.
You hungry?
People keep saying that junk food is bad for you.
But it heals me.
You're not gonna join me?
I should be asking
why you are enjoying this so much?
You think this is a good time?
What?
When is a good time to enjoy it then?
You broke up with Toy, finally.
I caught Coach Kwang who pretended to be Queen.
There's progress on Queen's case.
When is a better time to enjoy this other than now?
Or…
Is something still bothering you?
If this is about your secret,
no matter what,
it's just something in the past.
If you don't let your past affect your present,
I think
it will pass eventually.
It's not that easy.
I know it's not.
It takes time for me to get over my problems as well.
I have wounds all over, more than you for sure.
No matter what, our lives need to move forward, right?
You don't even know my story, so that's easy for you to say.
What happened to me
was way worse than what happened to you.
Well, if it's that bad,
you can talk to me.
Do you remember Professor Phat?
He taught us during our freshman year.
Of course, I do. I remember him well.
He's the reason
why you're upset like this?
You…
knew about this?
Yeah.
Don't ask me where I heard it from.
I won't say that you can trust me.
But I'm not Queen.
And I'm not the one who'd expose my friends' secrets
or gain benefit from them either.
But at least,
if you talk to me
I can help you out, or we can find a way
to get through this together.
How much do you know?
I know that Professor Phat tricked you into sleeping with him.
But back then, I didn't really care, so I didn't ask further questions.
Actually, there's something more than that, isn't it?
We'll learn about city administration and development today.
City is important to administrative and development aspects.
City is the center of activities
and it's the main factor to decide on the whole country
administrative and development.
Do you know when "city" originates from?
Going back in time,
city first started at Tigris-Euphrates River.
And for thousands of years after that,
we started to see patterns of cities formed all over.
So the interesting question is
how much it affected people's properties and belongings.
We'll talk about this later on.
That's it for today, see you next week.
Thank you, everyone.
Do you have any questions?
I do.
Are you dating anyone?
My friend wants to know.
What? Hey!
No. She's the one who wants to know.
If neither of you wants to know,
perhaps the one in the back does?
I'm just kidding.
I don't think I can answer this.
It's inappropriate to say.
My name is Queen.
This is Papang and this is Gale.
Okay.
It's nice to meet all of you.
Hope to see you all semester.
Also, I hope that none of you skip my class.
-No, we won't. -Of course not.
We won't skip your class for sure.
Right, Gale?
Yeah.
-See you later. -See you later.
Queen, were you flirting with him?
You crazy? I'm just having fun.
He's too old for me.
He's only a few years older than us.
I think he's in his early thirties.
Not too bad. What about your favorite Korean actors?
Gong Yoo? Lee Dong-wook?
Zo In-sung, they're in their forties and you still like them.
Well, he's not like them.
Why? You want him?
If he didn't teach us, then maybe.
But he's our professor.
And we're his students, isn't it strange?
You can go.
Why? Let's go together. I can give you a ride.
I think I'm going to the library to do some research on my report.
It's due next month, what's with the rush?
I'm auditioning for new projects.
If I get the job, I'm afraid I won't have time to work on it.
Just let her go.
Let's go, or we'll be stuck in traffic.
Okay. See you later.
Come on in.
Come on in, student. Please have a seat.
You're Gale, right?
Do you remember my name?
Your friend just introduced you to me.
What brings you here?
I just want to apologize to you
for my friend teasing you like that.
I know that it was inappropriate.
I'm sorry on her behalf.
It's okay. Don't worry about it. I'm cool with that.
Aside from this, was there anything else?
I'd like some advice on my report.
You still have time. No need to rush on it.
Many students will come for your advice when it's almost due date.
I'm worried that you won't have time for me.
Or are you busy right now?
Well, I'm not busy.
Now is fine.
No matter what people think,
for me, he was my first love.
It was almost six months that we were dating discreetly.
It may seem inappropriate,
but I was so into him.
I liked it when I was with him.
He made me feel warm
and safe.
No one had ever made me feel that way before.
I'm worried that your mom will see this.
No, she won't. She flew to Macao this morning.
She could be in casinos for days.
I don't know what she's thinking.
How did your mom start getting addicted to gambling?
She needed a distraction.
We were a high-profile family back in the day.
When my dad passed away,
we could still live off his inheritance, but my mom couldn't accept this new life.
She believed that gambling could help with that.
But the fact is that the more she gambled the more she lost.
Still, she keeps on gambling.
You know? When people do something,
they always have reasons behind every action.
Your mom believes that if she keeps on gambling, she'll win.
Even though the truth is so different from that.
This is weird.
People can be that stupid to misjudge what's right and wrong?
It's not like she can't see it.
But she pretends like she can't.
It's like she's lying to herself.
I feel like I might lose this house one day.
If I don't have anywhere to live, can I stay with you?
Well… You…
You think you can live with me?
I'm just a college professor.
My room is small.
It's not huge like a palace or your house.
I don't care.
As long as I have you, I can be anywhere.
Then we'll live together.
Can I ask you about something?
But you need to promise me first that if I tell you, you won't be mad at me.
What's that?
Promise me first that you won't get mad.
Sure. What're you gonna ask me?
Can I film us when we're doing it?
Don't be so stunned. I mean…
when I film it,
I feel better while I'm doing it.
I don't plan on sharing it.
After we're done, I'll delete it.
And you can check my phone after that.
But I…
Please?
I beg of you.
I promise you that it won't cause you damage.
Sure.
I let him do anything,
even if the requests could harm me.
He could take advantage of me, and I was fine with that.
I'd do whatever kept him happy.
I never resisted him, never suspected him.
I never questioned anything about him.
Perhaps it's because I loved him.
You loved him?
Yeah. I loved him back then.
It…
could have been your very first love, I guess.
So you felt deeply passionate about him.
And you thought that was love.
Whatever the reason,
it was the one and only time
that I felt like I was falling in love with someone.
After that,
that feeling never happened to me again, not even with Toy.
You're so wounded from that love, aren't you?
What's going on, Queen?
Why did you call me here?
You haven't hung out with me lately.
What do you do in your free time?
I went to auditions, you know that.
Auditions?
You went to auditions the whole time? Until the next morning?
Gale, we're friends.
You can tell me anything. Why are you hiding it from me?
Fine. I have a boyfriend.
A boyfriend?
That's right. I have a boyfriend.
I spent most of my time hanging out with him.
Queen. I'm sorry.
I promise you that I'll spend more time with you.
You have a boyfriend? Who is he?
Professor Phat?
You knew?
Sure. I also knew that you slept with him.
You really think he's gonna be serious with you?
Hey. What do you mean by that?
He is fooling you and you should know it.
Don't talk about things you don't know about.
It's morning. Why is this student still in bed?
What about you, Professor? Don't you have a class to teach?
I don't want to work today. I want to be here all day.
Where did you get it?
He sent it to me.
What did you just say?
But… he told me that he deleted it all.
Then what is this?
He deleted it right in front of me.
Come on, Gale. Don't be so stupid.
He can restore it from the trash. It's a new age, you know?
What? Why? Why did he do that?
Why did he send it to you?
We've been talking.
And he told me everything,
like when he started talking to you,
when you first slept with him,
what positions, how it felt.
Then he just sent me the clip.
Did you just slap me? Huh?
Queen, you bitch!
Gale. You think you can fight me?
Why didn't you tell me?! You gonna betray me?
Who started it?
Have you ever told me that you slept with him?
I thought that you were just having fun.
There, there.
You should have told me.
If you had told me, I would have…
Don't tell me you love him.
Don't tell me that you love someone disgusting like him.
Gale? Queen?
Gale knows everything now. About your monstrous actions.
Gale. Please listen to me.
-Gale. -Don’t touch me.
Gale, you need to listen to me.
If you don't listen to me and listen to this bitch,
your life will be ruined.
Gale.
It's because of her, all of it.
She threatened me.
I don't know how she found out about us.
She told me that if I didn't film it,
she'd tell the dean.
What do you want me to do? I had no choice.
Hey. You believe him?
Gale. Your friend is a psycho bitch.
She likes to destroy people's lives. Look at her. She's destroying our lives.
You need to resign. And don't let me see you again.
Otherwise, I'll kill you.
Gale.
Damn it!
It's all because of my own stupidity.
I was too stupid and easy.
I was so stupid that I trusted people's lies.
After that,
I keep telling myself that I wouldn't be stupid like that ever again.
No one was born smart.
We have to learn from our stupid mistakes.
I can confirm to you that this is just your past.
If you don't let your past destroy your present,
then no one can hurt you,
not even Queen, or Toy.
If you're brave,
no one can hurt you, no matter what.
You did nothing wrong, Gale.
You didn't do anything wrong.
You'll get through this
eventually.
Well?
I told you that she wasn't exactly a good person
like she pretends to be.
People saw that Queen is a good liar.
Queen was just lying to others.
But Gale is lying to herself.
If she's not that good, then just let her go.
Why hang on to her?
Because I love her.
Can't you see that we are a match made in heaven.
When I first slept with her, she pretended that it was her first time.
Of course, men like us know.
I didn't mind that.
Hey.
When Gale did something wrong, or something bad,
she'd forget all about it.
She'd act as if nothing happened.
And she does it so well.
Papang left?
Yes. She's gone for a while.
Have you eaten anything? I'll fix you something.
-I did. -Okay.
I want to…
tell you the truth about me.
I thought…
that leaving Toy
would set me free.
But it didn't.
The thing that's binding me is not Toy,
but my own past.
I'm afraid.
If you find out about me,
I'm afraid that
you'll be disgusted by me.
Toy told me already.
Don't worry.
I'm glad that you're willing to tell me your secret.
It makes me realize how much you trust me.
Don't worry about it.
It doesn't matter to me at all.
It doesn't make me look at you differently.
So I beg of you,
please don't mention it ever again.
But what I fear the most
is that I'll love you.
I'm afraid that I'll be hurt like I was before.
Gale.
Don't worry about it.
Something like this takes time.
The most important thing right now is that I need you to be safe.
That matters the most.
Gale.
There, there.
There's no need to cry.
I'll be right by your side.
Papang.
Lieutenant Oil asked you to be here as well?
She wanted to talk to us about the case.
-Hello. -Hello.
Sorry for calling you here this time.
I need to ask your opinions.
Why? We still can't close the case?
It seems like everything was beyond what we expected.
8 HOURS EARLIER
Do I need to call my lawyer?
We haven't pressed any charges yet.
If you're sure that you're innocent, then you don't have to.
You have Queen's phone.
You used her Instagram account.
You posted photos and messages on that platform,
after she passed away, didn't you?
Yes.
I got her phone so I changed her password.
You tried to log in to her account
on difference devices in different locations,
so it'd be hard to catch you.
Why did you put so much effort into this? What do you want?
I just wanted Papang to leave my boy alone.
He needed to focus on swimming practice.
An important meet is coming up.
So you tried to discredit her?
You tried to frame her as the murderer?
You're exaggerating.
I just used lipstick to write on mirror and posted it on social media.
That's not framing anyone.
Only stupid people believed it.
But Papang was in trouble because of what you did.
You didn't feel bad for the girl?
Why should I? That horrible girl?
Papang is just like her dead friend.
Such a smart mouth, arrogant, and a piece of trash.
She didn’t even realize how horrible she was.
She was trotting around shamelessly, showing off how rotten she was.
I don't get why people are so fond of her.
Even Athens, the only good boy that I've met,
found a little bit of good in Papang.
She deserved this. This could be a lesson for her.
I just thought that
Athens would be scared and stay away from Papang. That's it.
He's isolated and not a big fan of drama.
I didn't expect it to turn out like this at all.
Honestly, I had no intention of framing anyone,
distorting, or interfering with the case.
So, where is Queen's phone now?
I threw it away.
I just got her Instagram password and that's it.
Why would I keep it?
Tell me what you did that night exactly.
Are you drunk? Get home safe.
When are you going home?
START A CALL WITH ATHENS?
ATHENS
Why are you being like this, Athens?
We need to take a rain check.
We booked a table at One Night Stand. Athens is invited as well.
But it's up to you, Athens.
I was worried about Athens so I went to the nightclub.
When I was there, I saw Peanut, Guy, and RJ
carry Papang out, get in the car and drive off.
I wondered what they were doing so I followed them to the hotel.
When I was there, I saw Queen's car. So I knew that she was there.
Athens, are you with Queen?
RJ, what're you guys doing at this place?
Guy?
You're gonna sleep here?
What's wrong with him?
COACH KWANG: RJ, WHAT'RE YOU GUYS DOING AT THIS PLACE?
Hey, the hell did you do? I texted you a while ago, why didn't you read it?
I just saw it. What're you doing here?
I followed Peanut's car.
I saw you guys carrying Papang up to a room, right?
Gale's boyfriend went inside and he drove off.
Are you guys partying or something?
Why did you follow us here?
We just came here to drink just a little.
Just a drink? Look at you.
-You were sniffing drugs, right? -Keep it down, Coach.
People might hear you.
Where's Athens? Bring him here, I'm taking him home.
He's not here.
Of course, he's here. Queen's car is here.
So what?
I don't know. Athens left before midnight, I think.
-You sure? -Yeah.
Did Queen send you here to lie to me?
Come on, he's not here. Please, just go home, Coach.
Take me upstairs.
To do what?
Why?
You're worried that I'll see all the horrible things you do.
I don't care about your drugs and sex.
I just want to make sure that Athens is not here, then I'll leave.
Take me to your room or I call the police.
So?
Fine. But…
when you see that Athens isn't here, you need to leave right away, okay?
-Fine. -Promise?
Yeah, hurry up!
Where's Guy?
He's drunk and threw up in the bathroom. He fell asleep I think.
Good thing that Athens didn't hang out here with you…
Keep it down, I don't want them to wake up.
Can you leave? Athens isn't here.
Where's Queen?
Queen?
On the balcony, I guess.
What're you doing? Coach! What the hell?
What are you trying to do? Leave already!
-Coach! -Shh.
Jump. Jump off the balcony.
Someone like you should be dead.
Queen! What the hell is wrong with you? You crazy bitch! You psycho!
You psycho bitch! You should be dead!
Go to hell! Go!
Just jump! Do it!
What?
You didn't push me?
You said you wanted me dead.
Just push me! Come on, just do it!
Ugh.
Such a loser.
I'm not stupid enough to kill you with my own hands.
I should destroy you while you're still alive.
Your phone must have so many secrets.
I will expose you.
-Don't do it! -Why?
You like to expose, don't you?
You're so good at exposing others.
You're afraid to be exposed too?
You're afraid?
-Stop that. You need to stop! -Give it to me!
-Stop that. You bitch! Queen! -Give it to me!
-You need to stop! -I said give it to me!
Coach. If you want to take revenge on her, then follow me.
Open the door for me.
-Hurry. -Come on.
Push the button, Coach.
Just get in.
So damn heavy.
What're you gonna do with her?
Someone told me to move her to the other room.
Who? Who's that?
Just know that they're Queen's enemy,
like us.
That's all you need to know. They told me to get her drunk,
and take her downstairs.
What're they gonna do with her?
You really want to know?
Not really. I don't care what they're gonna do to her.
Wait.
-What're you doing? -I need to see what's in here.
In case I can use it against her.
No need to.
After tonight, she can't do anything anymore.
Go.
Just wait here. Don't follow me.
Coach. You should go home already.
And don't say a word.
Pretend like you've never been here. Otherwise, we will both be in trouble.
-Hurry up and leave. -Sure.
You mean that
Queen didn't fall from the room that I was unconscious in,
-but fell from another room? -That's right.
The room that RJ carried Queen to meet someone
was located below the room that Queen did drugs with RJ.
Both balconies are on the same side, if Coach Kwang didn't lie to me.
Who was it?
Who waited for her in that room?
Gale. Gale.
NEXT EPISODE
The police forced you to get something from me?
Why? She thinks that I lied?
RJ must know the person
who told him to move Queen to another room.
It's all your fault. You screwed us all.
You can't blame it all on me. ed us all.
