(Episode 21)
Emergency? I need to report a fire.
A factory is on fire.
The address here is...
Gemma.
Gemma!
Gemma.
Wake up. Gemma!
Gemma.
Wake up, Gemma.
Hee Kyung!
Oh my gosh. What's going on?
What do you think?
Isn't it nice being on a date with me?
Yes, okay.
Hello, ma'am.
It was all delicious, Chef So.
I'm happy to hear you liked it.
I used all the best ingredients since it was for you.
I put my heart and soul into it.
No wonder. I could taste your heart and soul.
You could?
Hello?
Hi, Ki Seok. What's up?
Excuse me.
What do you mean?
A fire?
Which hospital?
Okay.
Was that Mr. Yoon?
Was there a fire somewhere?
Is he in the hospital?
I'm sorry, but could you please take my grandmother home?
I need to go to my brother.
(Hankuk Hospital)
What happened?
Why were you there?
Why?
How's your shoulder? Does it hurt a lot?
It's bearable.
But how's Gemma?
Luckily, the burn and wounds aren't too serious.
But the problem is smoke inhalation.
We'll have to monitor her.
- Ki Seok. - Hey.
Is Gemma okay? What did the doctor say?
He said to wait. She needs to wake up first.
Gemma.
Let her be. They gave her a sedative.
What in the world happened?
Where did the fire break out?
Well...
Hello?
Yes.
Okay.
The cops are here.
I have to go. They're in the lobby.
Are you awake? Are you okay?
Gemma? Do you hear me?
Which hospital? Did she get burned?
Are you sure she's okay?
What are you talking about?
My goodness, Gemma.
It must've hurt so much.
Oh, dear. Gemma.
Gemma. Are you awake?
Do you recognize me?
My gosh. What happened to you?
What were you doing?
Did you do this?
- Sorry? - Or was it you?
No, it wasn't.
Then it was you after all.
She hasn't had a single quiet day since she met you.
Gemma. Tell me.
What happened to you?
You weren't just hurt. You were caught in a fire.
Why were you in a burning building?
Did someone start a fire intentionally?
I wonder if she died.
Yes.
It's better if she dies.
It's me.
How did it go?
A man ran in right afterward and took her to the hospital.
A man?
I don't know the details, but they said he seemed to know her.
You should've gone in there first.
I said to take care of it as soon as I leave.
He beat us to it. I'm sorry.
Did you take care of the rest?
The building owner and security video.
We did. Don't worry.
We took care of it completely.
Completely?
You messed things up, but you call that complete?
Don't leave any loose ends.
What are you up to?
With whom...
were you speaking so secretively at this hour?
Are you hiding something from me?
It's a personal matter.
Your personal life is too messy, Ms. Min Hee Kyung.
Is it an affair?
Or are you cheating on me?
Are you jealous? This isn't like you.
I don't know what you're thinking,
but if you won't leave this country, please lay low.
Don't do anything.
That's how you can help me.
Don't do anything?
- Why must I do that? - Please.
Hyuk Sang.
Come here.
Hurry.
How did the fire start?
Why was she there?
I don't know.
It wasn't like I could bombard her with questions...
as she lay there wearing an oxygen mask.
This is very mysterious.
Was it an affair?
Get your mind out of the gutter.
How have you not changed at all at your age?
Why won't you grow up?
Do you think Gemma would do that?
You never know.
- You jerk. - Hey.
Hey, you. Just say it. Don't hit people.
It's okay.
It was my mistake.
Mom. Should I call Yu Kyung?
She may know something.
Yes, call her.
That's right. Gun Wook.
Did you steal my pearl necklace?
You stole it, didn't you?
No, I didn't.
Then why was Yu Kyung wearing it?
That wasn't yours.
I took a close look.
How could I not know my own necklace?
It was definitely mine.
How is that yours? It's that woman's.
That woman?
What woman?
Darn it.
What do you mean?
Why did both of them not come home at the same time?
It wasn't at the same time.
They both happened to stay out, that's all.
I'm sure they were busy.
Call him.
- Grandma. - Now.
- Hey, what's up? - It's me.
Grandma.
Is Gemma with you?
Grandma, the thing is...
Put her on the phone.
Gemma is asleep right now.
She's asleep?
What... Then you two...
What did he say?
Grandma.
Hey.
Is Kim Gemma not in yet?
She's in the hospital.
The hospital? What's wrong with her?
She didn't call me.
Which hospital?
It wasn't my fault.
You brought it upon yourself.
I'm sorry, Jin A.
But you...
need to die.
Please...
forgive me.
Ms. Min.
What are you doing here?
I just stopped by.
I had to come to the hospital for something,
and I heard Gemma was here.
I was worried whether she had regained consciousness yet.
How did you know she was unconscious?
What do you mean by that?
You sound like you know...
what's wrong with her and why.
Do I?
Mr. Yoon Hyun Seok told me.
Why? Can't I know?
I'm the CEO after all.
I'll go now. Take care.
There was a fire.
Do you know anything about it?
How would I?
Bye then.
- Hey. - Hey, Ki Seok.
Did you tell Ms. Min...
that Gemma was hospitalized because she was in a fire?
No.
I only said she was hospitalized.
She asked which hospital, so I told her.
Okay.
How's Gemma?
Gemma. Are you awake?
I love you.
She tried to get rid of me.
She tried to kill me.
No.
She couldn't have. I must be mistaken.
Just get out of my face.
How dare you...
Resign right now.
Get out of my face.
You're despicable.
You never considered me your mom,
and I never considered you my child.
So what's the problem?
No. She tried to kill me!
Gemma.
Gemma. Get it together. Oh no.
- Gemma. - Gemma.
Mother, how's Gemma? Is she okay?
What's wrong?
Is she in bad shape?
Is she still unconscious?
She did wake up, but...
I'm not sure.
She doesn't seem well.
Why?
She keeps saying strange things.
She said someone tried to kill her.
Her oxygen saturation is still abnormally low.
It may have been temporary amnesia.
It's like she's in a persistent state of shock.
What happened?
Why?
- Oh my gosh. - You remember, right?
- What? - You promised to meet my friends.
Did you forget?
Sorry. I've had a lot on my mind.
I can't make it today.
What do you mean? I already booked a hotel bar.
Sorry, but tonight,
I have to be with the woman I love the most in the world.
What? Who is that?
Somebody.
Hyun Seok!
What...
Ta-da.
I got you synthetic flowers in case you're allergic to fresh ones.
What do you think? Do you like them?
I do not.
Grandma.
Why haven't Gemma and Ki Seok called?
How could they disrespect me like this?
You're right. You must be extremely angry.
But Grandma,
leave those jerks alone.
They're not kids.
I'm sure they'll take care of themselves.
What are you keeping from me?
They're going out, aren't they?
Will you tell me,
or should I drag them here right now...
and make them talk?
Seriously.
You can't drag them here right now even if you want to.
The truth is, Gemma is in the hospital.
What? But... Why?
She fainted while working.
She must've been tired.
Oh, dear.
It must be because she gave me one of her kidneys.
This is terrible.
That's not why.
Whatever. Anyway,
just let her rest since she's in the hospital anyway.
Don't call her.
My gosh.
What...
Where did you go last night?
Your face and clothes were a mess.
Try this. It's good.
Seriously.
I'm so annoyed. I'm seriously annoyed.
Gemma keeps ruining everything.
I had plans with Hyun Seok,
but he canceled to visit her at the hospital.
She's in the hospital? Why?
She must've gone somewhere and started a fire.
She's hospitalized and has amnesia from the shock.
Amnesia?
Who told you that?
Hyun Seok told me.
How did that happen?
What was so shocking?
Who knows whether it's real or just an act?
I can't stand her.
How could you say that about someone who was hurt?
And she's Lady Choi's adopted child.
She'll be close to you in the future.
Whatever. I just hate her.
You're her direct supervisor.
You should cherish and take care of the people below you, not hate them.
Her designs are good, so she's helping the company a lot.
Am I right, Ms. Min?
What? Yes, that's right.
Are you okay now?
Yes. I'm sorry.
You must've been worried.
Don't say that. Just get better.
Grandma is very worried.
Okay.
Ms. Kim Gemma?
Goodness. How do you feel?
Are you feeling better?
Who are you?
We're with the police.
You came too soon. She hasn't recovered yet.
Excuse me.
Hi.
You're with Kim Gemma, right?
Come back.
A body was found in the building where the fire broke out.
Okay.
- Detective Lee, let's go. - What?
We'll be back.
Let's go.
(CEO Min Hee Kyung)
Thanks for your help, Nurse Hong.
I sent a designer bag to you by messenger. Did you get it?
We should help each other out, of course.
Tell me if you ever need anything, okay?
Okay.
Come in.
The police are here to see you.
What should I do?
- Show them in. - Yes, ma'am.
Have a seat.
Hello. We wanted to talk to you about the Nakha-ri Fire.
Nakha-ri?
I apologize, but I'll be blunt and just come out and ask.
Do you know anything about the Nakha-ri fire?
A fire?
Are you saying a building burned down?
Kim Gemma, an employee here, is a victim.
Kim Gemma said you called her there,
and the two of you got in a scuffle, which started the fire.
That's right.
She said you hit her with a bottle in order to kill you.
Me?
Look here. I don't even know where that is.
I've never been there.
Then why did Kim Gemma lie that you told her to meet you there?
I'm not lying.
Ms. Min told me to meet her there.
I have a log of my call with her that day.
Look.
No. I'll find it.
(Restricted Number)
Look, Kim Gemma. We investigated,
and Min Hee Kyung has a solid alibi.
And a body was found in the building that burned.
What?
I have bad migraines,
so I take prescription migraine medicine.
I had run out, so I stopped by the hospital on my way home.
I'm sure the nurse there will remember.
What time was that?
It was 7:30 p.m.
The fire started at 8 p.m., correct?
I may drive a nice car,
but I couldn't have gone somewhere an hour and a half away...
in half an hour.
Why don't you check surveillance videos from the area?
You'll know whether or not...
I was in the area.
That's right. How's Chief Park doing?
I had dinner with him recently.
Give him my regards for me.
Sure. Okay.
There's a record of Min Hee Kyung picking up a prescription...
at 7:30 p.m.
The warehouse owner says he rents it out for parties.
And it was reserved in your name.
- What? - You paid 150 dollars in advance.
It was for one person.
You, by yourself.
That's absurd.
He asked if you were expecting anyone else,
and you said you wanted to think somewhere quiet.
All the circumstances point to you alone.
That's not true. It wasn't me.
Ms. Min set this whole thing up.
You don't have any proof.
We checked the surveillance videos and her alibi.
Nothing puts her at the scene.
She's clean.
Wait.
Are you sure you two aren't working for her?
Look here, Kim Gemma!
Gemma, don't.
Let me apologize on her behalf.
She isn't feeling well and is irritable.
Will you come back another time?
We'll question you as soon as you're discharged.
You were the only person at the scene of the fire.
Now that a body was found too, it won't be very easy.
How many times must I tell you? It wasn't me!
Min Hee Kyung planned this to kill me and frame me or murder.
It's not true. It wasn't me!
- Gemma. - It wasn't me.
(Chairman Kwon Hyuk Sang)
You wanted to see me?
Why were the police here?
Was it about Assemblyman Son?
No.
They had some questions about the fire Kim Gemma was in.
The police always investigate the people who are close...
to those involved in the case.
It isn't too late yet.
Do as I said. Leave right away if you can.
Leave!
Do you want to break up with me?
Is that why you're doing this?
How long will you say that?
I told you the matter with Assemblyman Son is almost resolved.
Don't say that to me again.
- Come with me. - What?
- What's wrong with you? - Come.
Look at this.
What is this?
Hee Kyung is acting weird.
When she came home earlier, her clothes were a mess...
and her hair was all messy.
She went right into the bathroom...
and cried as she showered.
What?
I know she's sensitive right now because of Assemblyman Son.
But there's something else going on.
That's why I looked at her clothes. Look at this mess.
Something is going on.
Hee Kyung.
What have you been doing?
(Red Shoes)
How could she send this after trying to kill me?
Where did you go two nights ago?
Your clothes were a mess.
You are under arrest for arson and abandonment of a corpse.
I only went there because Min Hee Kyung called me.
Can you prove it? No, you can't.
Why did Ms. Min call Gemma there?
Kim Gemma, you have a visitor.
Why are you here?
Don't be scared. There is always a middle ground...
that will please both parties.
