01x10 - Episode 10

[bunniefuu]

We’ll need a special promotion
after the renovations.

It’ll be a fresh start for everyone.

You and the team working that day

should take it easy too.

Mr. Mek, you're amazing!

PREVIOUSLY

You said you were afraid of water,
but you still jumped in to save me.

Thank you.

The only reason
Mr. Mek’s being nice to her

-is to win a bet with his friends.
-Exactly.

Here, have some water.

Thanks.

It'd be nice
if we could do this every morning.

Don’t you usually exercise anyway?

But without you around.

It’d be amazing

if we could run together
like this every day.

Take your time to think it over.

I just wanted to let you know how I feel.

I’d regret it

if I didn’t tell you.

WORK SCHEDULE

Excuse me, Inspector.

What’s so urgent this early, Lieutenant?

You need to see this.

I found something
on Miss Susie’s computer.

What’s up?

Da, are you with Rin?

Yeah, why?

We’re on a staff outing.

Where? Who’s with you?

A few of the hotel staff, Rin, me,

and Mr. Mek.
We’re using his vacation house.

What's going on?
Why do you sound so serious?

I’m coming over.

I need to question one more person.
Send me the location.

Didn’t you already question everyone?

Don’t tell me you mean…

Just keep an eye on Mr. Mek.

Don’t let him know I’m coming.

Stay alert.

This looks delicious!

Hungry yet?

Just a moment.

-Almost ready?
-Just a minute, Miss Sirin.

Almost there.

Breakfast is served!

For Miss Lada.

-Thanks!
-Just a moment, Mr. Mek.

Here you go.

-Thanks.
-It looks so good.

What about Mr. Jin?

He said he had a bit of a headache,
so he excused himself.

Da.

Are you okay?

Are you also having a headache?
You seem off.

What? No, I’m fine.

-Really?
-Totally fine.

Alright then.

-It looks great.
-Try it.

Paron’s cooking.

Mek!

Araya!

-Mr. Mek!
-Come on, Mek.

-Mr. Mek!
-Face me like a man!

-You coward!
-Araya!

Araya!

What’s wrong?
Why are you doing this to Mr. Mek?

Mr. Mek? Don’t you see? He’s playing you.

Ask him why he’s getting close to you.

Ask him!

Stop. Let’s talk outside.

-No.
-Now, Araya.

Araya.

Hey.

That was terrifying.

You're bleeding.

I’ll get the first aid kit.

-Let me talk to him!
-No. Listen to me first.

Stop it!

You can’t follow me around

and pick fights with everyone like this.

I’m just trying to help you, Rin.

Don’t you see what kind of person Mek is?

Okay.

So, everyone around me is horrible,

but you’re the perfect one?

That’s not what I meant.

Come on, Rin. Mek got close to you

just to win a bet
with his friends. That’s all.

He’s a jerk.

So?

He’s not being genuine, Rin.

Or do you not believe me? I have proof.

I don’t want to know.

Just stop. Stop messing with me.

Stop trying to protect me.

I'm a grown woman.
I can protect myself, okay?

And end up getting fooled again?
Like with Krit?

Oh, so you're trying
to remind me that I’m stupid, right?

Stupid for falling for people
over and over again? Even you, Araya.

Just admit it.

You’re no different from the rest of them.

Dammit!

What should we do, Charan?

Araya just came here
and caused a scene with Mr. Mek.

Calm down. I’m almost there.
What about Rin?

She just dragged Araya out.
I’m calling you

to let you know.

Go check on Rin. I’ll be there soon.

Okay, okay.

What’s going on?

Mek!

You…

You need to stay out of Rin’s life. Now.

Don’t tell me you followed me here
to tell Miss Rin about this.

Did Miss Rin even believe you?

Given the way you’re acting,

you probably came here for nothing.

Stay away from Rin.

And if you don’t,
don’t say I didn’t warn you.

Honestly, at first, it was just for fun.

But after getting to know Miss Rin,

I’m not stopping at winning the bet.

I’m asking her to marry me.

Rin isn’t the kind of woman
you’re used to,

and I won’t let her end up
with someone like you, Mek!

Mr. Araya! Please, calm down!

-Mr. Araya…
-Miss Rin is going to be mine. You'll see.

I will rip that mask off

and show everyone who you really are,

Mek!

If you don’t stay out of Rin's life,

I’ll k*ll you with my own hands.

-No!
-You don’t know who you’re messing with.

Thank you.

I heard

what Mr. Araya said about Mr. Mek.

Do you also think I’m just some fool,

getting tricked by a guy?

You’re not a fool.

You’re just someone who means well,

who is sincere with everyone
who comes into your life.

But not everyone is like that, right?

Not everyone means well and is genuine,

like you.

Sometimes, it wouldn’t hurt
to be a little cautious.

I just don’t want anyone
to hurt you again.

Rin!

Da.

Mr. Jin’s here too.

You have company now. I'll leave.

Thanks.

Rin.

Have those two stopped fighting?

Yeah,

but we’ve got a bigger problem now.

Charan’s on his way here.

He said he’s coming
to question Mr. Mek. It’s urgent.

-Mr. Mek?
-Yeah.

He seemed so serious about it.

And he warned us to be careful.

Drink some tea to calm down, Mr. Araya.

How’s Rin?

Miss Rin’s stressed about Susie.

Please, don’t be angry with her.

When Rin found out Susie was pregnant,
things only got worse.

Who’s Susie pregnant with?

God, my loose tongue…

Please don't tell anyone I said this.

Miss Da doesn’t want us talking about it.

Mr. Charan, when did you get here?

Miss Sirin didn’t tell me you were coming.

I would’ve had the staff
prepare a room for you.

Well…

It’s fine. I just need to take
a little of your time, Mr. Mek,

regarding Miss Susie's death.

Sure, if there’s anything
I can do to help.

Thanks for your cooperation.

You're welcome.

What were you doing at the hotel
the day of the incident?

Miss Sirin asked me to help film

for her show,

so I went with two other crew members,
if I remember correctly.

Were you at the event the whole time?

Yes.

I greeted Miss Rin,

then went to brief the team

and started working.

Anything wrong?

So,

you were there the whole time.
You didn’t leave for anything?

I went to the restroom and took breaks,

just like everyone else.

Mr. Mek,

do you know Miss Susie well?

I met her a few times
when I visited Miss Sirin at the hotel.

I only know her as a hotel employee.

On that day,

did you meet her at the event?

Yeah.

She was helping Miss Rin with her work.

Did you meet Miss Susie alone that day?

I’m not sure.

Everyone was so busy.

Are you close to Miss Susie personally?

I already told you.

I only know her

as an employee working for Miss Sirin.

Are you sure?

What’s the inspector here for?

I heard he’s here to question Mr. Mek.

Or…

Is Mr. Mek a suspect?

Well, it’s his job.

He has to question everyone
who was at the event that day.

But it feels a bit too urgent, doesn’t it?

Something’s definitely off.

You told me
you weren’t close to Miss Susie,

but this picture says otherwise.

Well,

Susie and I only became close recently.

She’s just one of my fans.

It looks like it’s more than that.

But that has nothing to do with her death.

So, on the day of the event, did you meet

or talk to Miss Susie

after she left to run an errand?

I also have footage of you both
near the storage room.

Yes, I saw her.

I can't let you get away with this!

You promised
you'd stop messing with Miss Sirin

and marry me.

Quiet down.

The others will hear.

Good! So, everyone will know

I’m your wife,

and you’ll stop
pretending with Miss Sirin.

If you don’t say it,

I’ll tell her myself.

Don’t you trust me?

I’m waiting for the right time.

Once this project
with Miss Sirin is done, I’ll tell her.

You know

I need her now.

The show we're working on together
is going really well.

I told you

I need her now for the show.

Don't be jealous.

Please, sweetie.

I already told my mom

I have a boyfriend

and he’s going to propose soon.

Okay.

When the time comes, I’ll meet your mom.

You’re serious?

Yes,

but for now, I need to get back to work.

I’ll see you later tonight.

I'll be waiting in the same room.

Alright.

After that,
I went straight back to the event.

I swear,

I had nothing to do with Susie’s death.

How long have you been seeing Miss Susie?

Not long.

I met her before Miss Rin,

when I was performing.

She’s just another fan.

Thank you for cooperating.

But there’s one more thing I need to ask.

What is it?

Did you know

Miss Susie was pregnant?

Susie was pregnant?

Alright, thank you.

I've arranged the van.
Everyone, start packing up.

Are we really leaving now?

Yeah.

The vibe here’s off now.

Plus, I’m worried Araya
will cause trouble for Mr. Mek again.

Got it, Miss Da.

Please take care of it.

Come on.

Hurry up and pack. The fun’s over.

So, what happened? Tell me.

You were talking to Mek for so long.
What did he say?

And why the sudden warning to stay alert?

Sorry.

This is confidential.

But we’re friends,

and I can tell

something’s wrong.

You’re acting way too serious.

Tell me. I won’t tell anyone.

Well,

I just got confirmation

that Mr. Mek and Miss Susie

were very close.

You mean…

Mr. Mek’s the father of her child?

I can’t confirm that yet
without a DNA test,

but the evidence confirms that

Mr. Mek and Miss Susie

had an intimate relationship.

I can’t believe it.

Mr. Mek's really the guy
Araya claimed him to be.

Was it all

just a lie to trick Rin?

Could it be

that Mr. Mek k*lled Susie?

Charan!

What’s going on, Mr. Paron?

Da, what’s happening?

Mr. Mek.

Da, get everyone out of here first.

Da, get everyone out of here!

What’s wrong with him?

-Rin…
-What’s going on?

-He'll be okay, right?
-Rin, go outside.

-No! Charan.
-Come on.

-Hurry.
-Why is Mr. Mek like that?

Why is he like that?

-Go.
-Gosh!

Why doesn’t this room
have any security cameras?

The caretaker said
Mr. Mek valued his privacy,

so there are no security cameras.

We’ll need to rely on witness statements
and physical evidence as much as possible.

Understood.

-Sergeant, let’s get going.
-Right.

What is this? What's going on?

There are so many cops.

Huh, Rin?

-Araya.
-What?

Mr. Mek is dead.

What?

What did you just say?
How did that happen?

Charan, what happened?

The preliminary autopsy

says Mr. Mek died from an overdose,

but we’ll need
the final report to confirm.

Doesn’t surprise me. Someone like him…

What are you saying?

Can't you show some respect?
He’s gone now.

More importantly,
there are no security cameras here.

I’ll need to question
everyone who was here

for the investigation.

Sure, no problem.

Where were you, Mr. Araya?

Why are you just showing up now?

Huh?

What’s that supposed to mean, Mr. Paron?

I was about to leave,

but I went to pack things
from the back of the house.

That’s when I saw Mr. Araya

walking out of the room

at the back

where Mr. Mek's body was found.

So, are you saying

Mr. Araya was the last one to see Mr. Mek?

I’m not sure.

I went back to pack things.

But I have a gut feeling.

Before that,

Mr. Araya and Mr. Mek had a huge argument.

Mr. Araya told him

if he didn’t stop messing with Miss Sirin,

he’d k*ll him himself.

Miss Rin is going to be mine. You'll see.

I’m will rip that mask off

and show everyone who you really are, Mek!

-Mr.Araya, don't!
-If you don’t stay out of Rin's life,

I’ll k*ll you with my own hands.

-No!
-You don’t know who you’re messing with.

So, why did you go back
into that room, Mr. Paron?

I was looking for Mr. Jin,

but then I noticed the back room

and got curious about
what was inside, so I went in.

Then I found Mr. Mek dead.

Yeah, I went into…

Mr. Mek's room, alright?

Mek.

You must get out of Rin's life.

Leave her alone!

Do you really think
you have a chance with Miss Rin?

Let me tell you something.

Someone like you

will never make her happy.

I didn’t come here
to listen to your opinions.

I’m here to warn you for the last time.

Or I’ll spill
all the terrible things you’ve done

to other women.

If you’re willing to risk your reputation,
go ahead and try me.

What? You think I’m scared of you?

You're just a dog in the manger.

Take this!

I’m just giving you a heads-up.

Next time, I won’t hesitate to k*ll you.

Even without me,
Miss Rin won’t go back to you.

She’ll be mine. Remember that!

Get out of her life.

Yes, we fought, then I left.

I never intended to k*ll him.

But from what Mr. Paron said,

you seemed so angry at Mr. Mek,

it sounded like you wanted to k*ll him.

We had a bet.

If Mek managed
to win Miss Sirin over, he’d win.

Miss Sirin wasn’t
the first girl Mek was into.

Whether they're high-society girls,

net idols,

or influencers,

he’s been with all kinds.

Some he dated for a while,

others were just one-night stands.

He loved bragging

about how tough and challenging
Miss Sirin was.

He was really invested in her.

I don’t know if it’s because
he wanted to outdo us

or if he wanted something else.

I heard they went on a trip together,
just the two of them.

So, I guess…

Please show some respect

for the woman you're talking about.

When I heard about it,

I got really worried about Rin.
I tried to pick her up,

but she wouldn’t listen to me at all.

So, you got pretty angry at Mr. Mek?

Yeah, I was livid,

but I never meant to k*ll him, Charan.

Look, I told you.
I’m not involved in his death.

Then, where were you

after seeing Mr. Mek in that room?

I won't let you hurt Rin, Mek!

I drove around to clear my head,

but I couldn’t stop thinking about her.

So, I went back.
And that’s when I found out Mek was dead.

If I’d done it,
why would I go back, Charan?

We still have to wait for the autopsy

to determine if Mr. Mek's death
was a m*rder or something else.

Alright, it’s done, Lieutenant.

If anything new comes up, let me know.

It might be connected
to Miss Susie's case.

Got it, Inspector.

Da.

Where’s Rin?

Rin’s in bad shape, Araya.

I told her to go back
with the hotel van first. Don't worry.

Why didn’t she wait for me?

Maybe she just isn’t ready
to talk to anyone yet.

I think we should give her some time.

Then, why didn’t you go back with Rin?

Rin asked me to stay and coordinate,
in case the police need anything else.

In that case, I’ll take you back myself.

Okay, I’ll head out first.

Alright.

I know Araya well.

Even though he comes off
rough and impulsive,

he’s not the kind of person
to do something like that.

No one really knows
anyone’s true nature, Da.

The evidence will speak for itself.

By the way, how’s Rin?
I’m really worried about her.

We’ll have to give her time.

Horrible things happened
back-to-back to people close to her.

Still, we need to be careful.

I have a feeling

this is a dangerous sign.

People close to Rin are facing bad things.

And Da,

you should be careful too.

What’s on your mind?

Is there something
you and Rin are hiding from me?

Why are you asking that?

I just feel like something’s off
with this whole situation.

Mr. Krit was exposed as g*y.

Then Miss Susie tried to investigate it,

and she ended up dead.

And now, Mr. Mek is dead too.

Right now,

I feel like

someone’s pulling the strings
behind all of this.

Someone

who knows exactly
what’s going on with you guys.

Because, aside from Miss Susie,

it seems like everyone
who’s come into Rin’s life

is being eliminated, one by one.

You really think so?

I’m just looking at the bigger picture.

And I feel like

Rin’s not safe.

You can go now. Thank you so much.

You told the driver to go?
How are you getting back?

It’s fine. I just wanted to make sure

you got home safe first.

Honestly, you don’t have to
wait for me like this.

It’s okay.

Excuse me.

Hello?

Rin.

Where are you?

Why didn’t you wait for me?

I’m worried about you.

I’m coming over to your house now.

That’s enough for now. I’m fine, really.

Rin.

Is something wrong?

Well,

Araya’s coming here.

I don’t want to see anyone right now.

I know a place.

I’ll make sure no one can find you there.

Make yourself at home.

So cute!

How adorable!

What’s your pet’s name?

Joy.

Because every time I’m with him,

that's what I feel.

So, how is it? Is it okay to stay here?

The house might be
a bit too small, though.

It's not small at all.

It’s so…

lovely

and cozy.

Wow.

Why do you--

Please don’t get the wrong idea.

I’m not a creep who secretly takes photos.

It’s just that I love taking photos.

Candid ones.

There’s something so diverse

and natural about it.

And…

there are…

some more.

Do you like it?

For me,

these are the most beautiful photos.

Miss Rin.

Could you promise me something?

No matter what happens,

I don’t want you to blame yourself.

I don’t want to see you suffering.

Why do you care about me so much?

Because you care so much
about everyone else.

But sometimes you forget

that you need it too.

From now on,

please don’t push me away anymore.

Let me be the one who looks out for you.

Let me care for you.

Please?

Thank you.

WHERE ARE YOU? ARE YOU OKAY?

Tell Araya that I'm with you.

I don’t want to see anyone right now.

Don’t worry, I’m fine.

I found Mr. Thee.

Where is he?

Mr. Thee…

is dead.

So, we’ll never know

who k*lled Susie?

If someone else died,

that would mean
the k*ller might not be Mr. Mek.

If you manage to get that b*tch Sirin

out of Araya’s life,

I’ll arrange the wedding for you.

You only care about the hotel.
Have you ever cared about me?

Or you just gave birth to me,
and that’s it?

Watch your mouth!
