What did you just say?
If you're Ms. Ma's grandson,
why do you need the rightful heir as insurance? Tell me!
Are you not related to Ms. Ma?
Did you...
fake your lineage?
I asked you a question.
Are you a fake grandson?
Answer me.
You're a fake, aren't you?
(Vice-chairwoman Seol Yu Gyeong)
Who told you what, that you're talking such nonsense?
Your mother said that...
only Han Byeol's mom, Hye Soo, the rightful heir to Cheonha...
could be your insurance policy.
My mom got smart now that her son's a chairman.
It's the truth.
Hye Soo is Han Byeol's mom and the rightful heir to Cheonha.
You can cement your hold if you marry Hye Soo?
Are you trying to win over...
not just Ms. Ma's supporters but the Yoo family's supporters too?
Why ask when you know so well?
That's what I found so strange.
You and Hye Soo are cousins.
We have Han Byeol. This would've been acceptable in the past.
This isn't the Joseon dynasty.
There's something else, isn't there?
As if there is.
Quit this detective game of yours.
I made you a CEO, so do your part.
Yoo Ji Ho!
What do you think you're doing at work?
Ms. Joo.
Why are you causing a scene in the chairman's office?
Even the walls have eyes here.
Can't the CEO of a subsidiary visit the chairman?
This is our workplace.
Speak and act accordingly.
Vice-chairwoman Seol is very right.
Ms. Joo. Please act appropriately.
I will, Mr. Chairman.
I'll keep that in mind.
Did Ms. Ma tell you to swap out my mother's porridge...
and taint it with psilocybin, a hallucinogenic from a mushroom?
I didn't know it was hallucinogenic. Chairman Yoo Ji Ho...
You make mistakes too, Ms. An?
I said it was a slip of the tongue.
Is this the police?
Yes, it's a murder.
Come to the director's office of Cheonha Fashion.
I'm Senior Executive VP Yoo In Ha.
I'll be here.
What do you get by calling the police?
Are you naive or stupid?
Do you think you'll be released immediately?
Of course I do.
Ms. An. Do you think Ji Ho will have your back forever?
We'll never give up.
And you'll have no choice but to confess.
As to who's controlling you.
How did you know to rush over just in time?
Be grateful I saved your skin.
You don't have to show off.
Se Young was just testing me.
She'd have gotten more suspicious if I overreacted.
Se Young's standing at a cliff's edge.
She's losing her mind.
I'm aware of that. She's trying to get something on me...
to control me again.
I keep saying this,
but I want you to take down Ms. Ma...
and take full control of the company.
After that,
I will take you down.
From your throne.
Isn't that seat too good for you?
So, once Ms. Ma loses everything...
to me, her fake grandson,
you'll move in and take it all from me?
It's for Hye Soo, not myself.
The thing is,
what you're saying is becoming offensive.
It shows how much you underestimate me.
If you don't like being underestimated,
replace Ms. Ma soon.
Show me what you're capable of.
Yoo Ji Ho speaking.
What? Seocho Police Station?
The police arrested Ms. An?
Yes, but I called the police commissioner...
and she was let off.
I used to be a prosecutor.
They can't use the law against me.
You talked to the police commissioner yourself?
I don't mind pulling some strings to get Ms. An out.
You should put down your burden and rest.
Ms. An's going around talking nonsense...
that I gave the order to kill Min Sun Jung.
Did you put her up to it?
I didn't have to put her up to anything.
It's the truth.
What's this?
It's a hallucinogenic drug made with dried mushrooms.
It comes in useful...
when there's someone you wish to get rid of.
I hope you won't have to use it,
but in life, things tend to not always go how you'd like.
I'll keep it safe...
and use it when I must.
Now, do you remember, Grandma?
I did give you hallucinogenic mushroom powder,
but I didn't tell you to use it on Sun Jung.
Don't be like this.
She was a thorn in your side too.
Are you saying you did me a favor?
I am...
your only grandson who's most like you.
It's time to leave things to me...
and back down.
Yoo Ji Ho!
You are getting too greedy!
Pull yourself together.
I'm protecting you.
Did you ever stop to think that I was protecting you?
It's time to hide behind me.
I'll be your shelter now.
Don't even try to take anything that belongs to the company.
I don't need it.
Do you think I have that kind of greed or ambition?
I don't trust anyone.
That's the principle with which I protected the company thus far.
Your grandson Ji Ho whom you adore.
Don't trust him either.
That's one last piece of advice from your fake grandson.
It's possible that...
In Ha was right.
I'll build up a castle of my own.
For my own dynasty.
That no one can bring down.
What? Ms. An was released?
She was acquitted.
I bet Ji Ho got her out.
What should we do?
I can't give up like this. Let's keep going.
We must.
If we back down now,
Ms. Ma, Ji Ho, and Se Young...
will never learn...
what they did wrong and how they hurt others.
We can't let that happen.
A human being should learn to repent and show remorse.
Right.
You asked to see me out of the blue?
What is it about?
How was Ms. An let off so easily?
There's nothing to prove she harmed your mother.
We can't assume someone's guilty based on one call.
Not to mention that Ji Ho was a brilliant prosecutor.
He uses the law better than anyone.
She added a hallucinogenic drug...
to her porridge with the intent to kill.
I see you're so upset because this is about your mother.
But we can't investigate based on a hunch.
We need conclusive proof.
That's why I reported Ms. An. So you could find that proof.
We didn't find anything suspicious about her.
Actually,
we're questioning Cho Ye Seo.
I think Se Young was involved.
She added something thinking it was a laxative,
but it turned out to be poison.
That porridge was the one that got swapped out.
What?
This is the hallucinogenic mushroom powder.
Mushroom powder?
Just a small amount causes hallucinations.
It's called psilocybin.
I got that from Yusimwon.
In the second autopsy,
we found a clump of psilocybin in my mother's gums.
Then Ma Hyun Duk...
Whether it was her plan...
or Ji Ho's plot,
we must find out.
I'll look into it.
Minister.
Please, at least once,
investigate according to the law and don't give in to any pressure.
Please keep things fair.
Mr. Lee!
You called, ma'am?
Did we switch cleaners?
No, it's the same company.
No one had reason to touch that picture, so why did they?
Is something the matter?
We got random visitors as well.
Mr. Lee, did you touch that drawing?
I didn't. Why would I dare?
Tell the truth!
I don't know what you want me to say.
I don't think I can serve you any longer.
- What? - I'm sorry. I apologize.
Are you afraid of me?
Yes.
It's very hard to get a job working for me,
but it's even harder to leave.
Please spare me, ma'am.
I will spare you.
In return...
I'll have a nice massage before I open my restaurant, Ms. Kang.
Okay. Get a massage or hot compress.
I have to drop by the bank.
Don't worry. Go ahead.
Okay. Don't you fall asleep.
This is so nice.
Sweetie.
What are you doing here?
You weren't in the restaurant.
Is something wrong? Why the long face?
What should I do?
What is it this time?
- I quit my secretary job. - What?
Why?
Ms. Ma suspected me.
I got so scared, I said I'd quit.
Good for you.
You can work at my restaurant.
It's okay.
- The thing is, sweetie. - Yes?
Go on.
In return for letting me go,
she wants to take you hostage.
She wants me? As a hostage?
What does that mean?
- I know a lot of Ms. Ma's secrets. - Yes.
Terrible things can happen if I were to talk.
I can't send you to that dangerous place.
I'll go.
No. I'll be Ms. Ma's hostage.
You know my strength. I'm fearless.
You'll work for Ms. Ma?
Yes.
What about the chicken place?
The restaurant's still in my name.
You can't do both.
I'll keep the restaurant going.
That job suits me better anyway.
This is how sweet my sweetie is.
Do you think...
you can handle Ms. Ma?
Don't you worry.
She'll fall for my charm too.
Are you doing this for me?
If my sweetie quits,
we'll have no eyes or ears on Ms. Ma.
I'll do my best and be a double agent.
I'll keep her company as well.
Thank you.
My grandma... I mean, Ms. Ma.
Take good care of her for me.
You used to love building these in high school.
You got back into it now?
It's for my office.
Ji Ho's own sturdy castle.
What's this? It looks like a king.
Yes. It's the most powerful king in the world.
It should have a crown.
Of course it should.
- I'm off. - Ji Ho.
What's this?
Why do you have that?
I was checking your pockets before sending your coats to the dry-cleaner's...
and it was in one of them.
What medicine is it?
It's nothing.
Are you sick? Are you taking something I don't know about?
I said it's nothing. Your son's very healthy.
Look after yourself, okay? See you.
Okay. Take care.
Anyone who tries to flip my castle upside-down...
will take this hallucinogenic drug and burn in the fiery pits.
The mushroom powder?
I'll get it when I can.
It won't be incriminating,
but it will connect Ji Ho to Sun Jung's death.
That's right.
Yoo Ji Ho.
Your life is now in my hands.
If you want to live,
you'd better frame Ms. Ma as the killer.
(Cheonha Group Chairman Yoo Ji Ho)
Sir, the board meeting is in 20 minutes.
Okay.
It's the main meeting room?
Yes.
Oh, dear.
I forgot my phone.
I'll get it.
Thanks.
What are you doing?
Did you place a bug?
A listening device? That's child's play.
That's what you put in Ms. Seol's office.
What were you doing in the chairman's empty office?
I was cursing the place.
You know just how far and deep our bad blood goes.
I feel much better now.
You. Serve your master well.
You never know when I'll come after him.
See you.
- Your name is Jin Sun Mi? - Yes, Ms. Ma.
Are you not afraid of me?
Of course, I'm afraid.
- But... - But?
- You're cute. - What?
You're way gutsier than you look!
Yes. I'm incredibly gutsy.
That's how I'll befriend you.
Am I your friend?
Let's be honest. Didn't you enjoy the stroll we went on?
I kept you company.
You're really something.
You look straight at me and say what you want.
I'll say all I want and do all I must too.
Ma'am.
Don't consider me Mr. Lee's hostage.
Consider me an actual secretary. Will you?
Why did you ask to see me this time?
I've decided to cut ties with you completely.
What? Why, Mother?
It bothers me how you keep getting me drunk...
and making me talk nonsense.
I get it.
Let's have just one drink each today.
I won't make you drink ever again.
Why do you want to drink again today?
Hanging out with you might cut my life short.
Today, I'll make you vin chaud, a mulled wine that's boiled.
"Vin chaud?" What's that?
Gosh. It's so very delicious.
It warms you up too.
I'll make it for you again.
I said I won't drink with you again.
You did tell me a massive secret...
when you were drunk last time.
I see why you're in trouble.
A secret?
I told you something?
Keeping that to yourself all this while must've been so stressful.
Maternal love really is powerful.
How did you think of...
I don't know what it is that you know,
but I only did what Seol Yu Gyeong suggested.
Ms. Seol...
turned Ji Ho into Ms. Ma's fake grandson?
That's exactly it.
No. No, that's not true.
The warm, sweet wine must've gotten to me.
I talked more nonsense.
It was just a joke.
You can't lie about that.
How could you lie about being related to someone?
It's fine.
I tend to forget things easily. Don't you worry.
Your secret's safe with me.
We investigated Min Sun Jung's death...
and reached...
a provisional conclusion that Ms. Ma and Ji Ho were involved.
"A provisional conclusion?" Does that mean you're not sure?
We investigated the mushroom powder you gave me.
The sample from Ms. Ma's safe...
and the one from Ji Ho's office are identical.
Is that still not enough to identify the actual killer?
We can't name a culprit based on deduction alone.
An autopsy result is just what it is.
To build an actual case, we need a recording or a video.
Something material.
Ma Hyun Duk, Yoo Ji Ho, Joo Se Young.
We must show them...
that fleeing the law doesn't make them innocent.
I'm here to see the vice-chairwoman.
(Cheonha Group Chairman Yoo Ji Ho)
Have we decided on the main design for the new season?
Yes, Stella's working on it right now.
Is it almost done?
Yes. It should be done in the next few days.
What's this?
Ms. An, come in.
Ms. An.
Is there a problem with the listening device?
What do you mean?
I just saw Se Young go in to see Ms. Seol,
so how come I hear her talking to Hye Soo and In Ha?
Let me check.
Have we decided on the main design for the new season?
Yes, Stella's working on it right now.
- Is it almost done? - Yes.
I think they found it.
They found our listening device?
I think they recorded a conversation...
and are playing it on a loop.
(Recording 001)
What do you mean?
Ji Ho's mother told you everything?
That you turned Kang Ji Ho into Yoo Ji Ho.
- What? - How could you do that?
You thought I was Mi So then.
How could you marry me to a fake?
Tell me. Why did you do something so cruel?
It was what you wanted.
You wanted Kang Ji Ho to be Yoo Ji Ho.
- What? - I wanted...
my daughter to marry for love.
In Ha didn't love you,
so I decided to turn Kang Ji Ho into Yoo Ji Ho.
Why are you back?
Do you still have to vent?
I'm here to declare war...
against you, Ms. Ma.
You'll declare war?
Cheonha Group.
I want it.
- What? - I don't care...
if I'm not related to you.
I can't let the likes of Ji Ho take over Cheonha.
I will...
become the new chairman.
(Game of Witches)
There's something brewing between In Ha and Ji Ho?
Yoo In Ha's no pushover?
Yoo Ji Ho will learn a huge lesson.
I won't fall. Let's deal them a real blow.
Kang Ji Ho.
Do you want to remain her real grandson forever?
Then let me get back with you.
