What are you doing here at this hour?
I'm sorry for visiting so late at night.
I came to ask you something.
Come inside.
(Episode 45)
- Please sit down. - Okay.
(Case Report)
- You can sit over there. - Okay.
Why did you ask me about the black box?
Please answer me. I need to know too.
Why did you ask?
I know you won't believe me,
but there was someone else at the summer house other than me that day.
I definitely saw someone escaping through the back door.
So I thought that person would've gotten caught on...
Ruby's black box camera, which was parked at the back door.
But the black box footage showed nothing.
That's why I wanted to check.
What if someone did something to the black box?
Someone did something to the black box? Who?
It was just a hypothesis.
I also thought of that as a possibility.
But I heard that you can always restore everything...
even if someone fabricates or deletes what's in the black box.
But...
why are you talking about this to me?
I thought you didn't believe me.
It's not because I trust you.
I've become suspicious about something, and I just want to check.
Can you tell me what you're suspicious about?
That day at the summer house,
I definitely saw someone going out through the back door.
The reason I came to work at the restaurant...
is to reveal the truth.
As you may already know, there's someone who keeps...
getting in my way and wants me to go back to prison.
Why do you think Ms. Hong is so obsessed about kicking me out?
If Ms. Hong and Ms. Jung Jae Hee weren't on good terms,
and it turns out that they actually hated each other...
Jae Hee's friend, Kang Sun Ae, said the same thing.
May I ask you a favor?
Do you have the office records of what your employees did...
on the day of the incident?
I'd like to check Ms. Hong's records of that day.
Would that be possible?
Hey! Who do you think you are?
What gives you the right to do that?
Don't mind him.
He lives next door, and he does that every time he gets drunk.
It's late. I'm sorry. I should go now.
Make sure you keep the door locked.
Don't worry. Go home safely.
If he came all the way here at this hour, could that mean...
Were you at Se Na's house until now?
Did you greet her mother well?
Yes.
Good job. You should take some rest now.
Okay. You too.
Could it really be Se Na?
No way. It can't be.
Hey, Mr. Jang. It's me.
I'd like you to look into something.
What? Who's Kang Sun Ae, and what's her problem?
Why is she talking nonsense?
Sun Ae's a problem in itself,
but the bigger problem is that Dal Nim told Sun Ho everything.
He's being suspicious of the black box.
What?
He asked if Se Kang really went to Ruby's car to find his wallet.
He thinks he could've done something else.
Mom, are you sure you got rid of that black box footage?
Se Kang took care of it. You don't need to worry.
Dal Nim is determined to fight us.
You never know when she'll stab us from behind.
We have to do whatever it takes to send her back to prison.
Did you just come to work?
Yes. What are you doing here without any prior notice?
Please sit down.
It's not weird for a mother-in-law to visit her son-in-law's workplace.
I know you're busy, so I'll just make it quick.
Okay, go ahead and tell me.
It's about Se Na.
She cried the whole night...
after you went home.
I wasn't going to say this,
but Se Na suffered so much because of Jae Hee.
I was working for Jae Hee's mother as a housekeeper,
so Se Na could never go against Jae Hee.
She treated Jae Hee like a princess.
When Jae Hee went shopping, she'd carry all her shopping bags for her.
Se Na did everything Jae Hee asked her to do.
But how could Se Na ever do anything to harm Jae Hee?
That friend, Sun Ae...
is only trying to frame Se Na.
I felt so upset when I heard that.
I feel so bad about Se Na.
If I didn't work as a housekeeper,
she wouldn't have had to go through what she did.
Mother.
Thinking about the past suddenly made me burst into tears.
Se Na doesn't know that I came here.
It'll hurt her pride...
if she finds out that I talked about this to you.
I came because I wanted to...
get rid of your misunderstanding.
So don't misunderstand her, and I hope you get along.
Please do that for me.
I'm sorry for worrying you.
I'll go now then.
Okay.
Go back safely.
Did you look into it?
Yes, I checked with the data processing team.
But they don't have Ms. Hong's office records from four years ago.
They only keep each year's records...
for one year.
Instead, I found the email record that Ms. Hong had exchanged...
with our clients.
Really?
Why is he going through Se Na's office records?
I traced the IP address,
and I confirmed that it was sent from Ms. Hong's office.
Judging from the records,
it seems as though she worked overtime that day.
Thank you. You can go now.
What? Sun Ho went through my office records?
I heard him talk about that with his personal assistant.
Why do you think he went through your records from four years ago?
It's obvious.
He's trying to trace what you were up to that day.
This is all because of Dal Nim.
She's causing trouble all over the place,
so even Sun Ho's being suspicious of me now.
Sun Ho won't be able to do anything...
if Dal Nim ends up back in prison.
Do you have a plan?
Sun Ho asked you about the black box?
Yes, why do you think he asked me that?
Seeing that he went to your house at that hour,
I guess he's starting to doubt the result of the case.
I think he knows something about the black box.
I'll meet and talk to him.
Did you ask Sun Ho to check my office records?
You can see for yourself.
It's proof that I was at the company...
at the time of the incident.
(Record of Emails Sent from the Company's Server)
You can try whatever you want,
but you won't be able to find anything.
Because you're the culprit,
and I didn't do anything wrong.
What's this?
It's an email record that proves that...
Ms. Hong was at the company...
on the day of the incident.
What do you think?
Do you think my hunch was wrong?
This isn't enough for us to decide.
People can share their email addresses with other people.
Someone else might've...
sent something on behalf of Se Na.
I heard Sun Ho went to say hello to your mother yesterday.
Yes.
But why do you look so down? Are you sick?
To be honest, I'm a bit upset because of Sun Ho these days.
Why? Is there something going on?
I think he's become close with Dal Nim.
What do you mean he's become close with Dal Nim?
I guess they became close when he was working at the warehouse.
He's helping her look for her mother.
And she even goes in and out of his office.
Sun Ho and I keep fighting with each other because of that.
What? Jae Wook's already doing enough.
I can't believe Sun Ho's adding onto that.
She's the reason why we're suffering so much.
I think Dal Nim has a way of manipulating people.
We can't fall for her tricks.
She's making us misunderstand and fight with each other.
That's exactly what she did to Jae Wook and me.
I've tried to warn Sun Ho, but he won't listen to me.
Do you even know what happened yesterday?
I met a high school friend at work by coincidence.
Dal Nim must've overheard the conversation I had with that friend.
She went straight to Sun Ho and told him everything,
and made him misunderstand me.
What do you mean?
That friend was always jealous of me and Jae Hee...
ever since we went to high school together.
Dal Nim overheard her saying that Jae Hee and I weren't...
on good terms with each other.
Then she told Sun Ho what she heard.
That's what caused Sun Ho to misunderstand me.
What?
She must've lost her mind.
You don't need to worry.
Let's make ourselves feel better...
by eating something delicious and going shopping.
Mother, how do I look?
You look pretty. It looks good on you.
What do you think about this?
Mom, don't you think this one's better?
That one's pretty too. You should try it on.
- Should I? - Yes.
She must be your daughter.
Yes, I'm her daughter.
You guys look so alike.
We do, don't we? She's pretty because she resembles me.
- Let's go see other brands. - Okay.
Why did you call me over here?
I heard from Dal Nim about last night,
so I was wondering if you knew anything about the black box.
If someone really did something to the black box,
do you know who it could be?
Nothing's sure yet, so I can't tell you anything right now.
Everything's just an assumption right now.
Do you think it could be your uncle?
Why do you think it could be him?
I never said anything to make you doubt him.
Well, it's because he was also at...
the summer house that day with Ruby.
But I'm surprised. You didn't even let me talk about this in the past.
Are you starting to believe Dal Nim now?
Not completely.
I can't just change...
what I thought was true overnight.
Especially if it's just out of suspicion.
But I do think that there could be another possibility.
Maybe what I saw wasn't everything.
Maybe it's possible that what I saw was actually wrong.
You've already become flexible by opening a possibility.
- Drink this. - Thank you.
But why did you want to see me?
I have something to ask you.
Do you sometimes use...
Ms. Hong's email?
No, how can I dare to use Ms. Hong's email?
Then what about the other employees?
They're not allowed to do that either.
Then is it possible to open an email from outside of the company?
Because of security regulations,
it's impossible for someone to open an email from outside the company.
I see.
But why do you ask that all of a sudden?
It's nothing.
I'm sorry for bothering you when you're busy.
Thank you.
Ms. Hong.
What did Dal Nim say to you?
Like you said, she asked about your email.
You did what I told you to, right?
Yes, I answered her like you told me to. But...
You don't need to worry about your performance assessment.
I'll make sure to assess you well.
Thank you, Ms. Hong.
(Energize Your Blood Vessels and Skin)
This is really good for your body.
Did you get this for me?
My gosh, thank you so much.
Here, try one right now.
Should I do that?
There we go.
I feel like I'm full of energy now.
I hope you live a long and healthy life.
Every time I see you, I get reminded of my parents.
Where are your parents?
My dad passed away, and my mom...
We're currently living separately because of our circumstances.
I don't know what kind of circumstances that may be,
but I'm sure you miss her a lot.
Yes, I do. I should've been a better daughter to her...
when she was still around.
People usually think about the one thing they did wrong...
instead of the many things they did right.
That one thing will keep hurting your heart.
Because that's exactly how I felt.
- Hello? - Where are you right now?
I'm at the lounge.
Right now? Okay.
Who was that? Was that your boyfriend?
My goodness, no.
I think I have to go now.
Don't forget to take this regularly.
Okay. I'll make sure to take it every day.
By the way, I've finished my training,
so I won't be coming here anymore.
My gosh, I feel so sad.
I'll drop by if I'm ever passing by.
Please stay healthy, ma'am.
I don't know who her parents are,
but they did a great job and raised her well.
About the office record that you asked me to look into...
I already heard from Ms. Hong.
She came to me and gave me this.
According to this record,
Se Na was definitely at the office that day.
I didn't check Se Na's office records...
only because you asked me to.
If Se Na's whereabouts of that day become clear,
I'd be able to stop being suspicious of her.
That's also why I looked into it.
So does that mean you can trust her again?
- Was the email record enough? - I know that...
there's a possibility that someone else could've used her email.
But how high would the chances be...
for someone else to have used her email that day?
If you want me to check,
I can ask someone at the development team.
I already asked Da Jung.
She told me that no other employee...
including her has ever used Ms. Hong's email.
That doesn't mean I've stopped being suspicious of...
Ms. Hong.
There's something I've been wanting to ask you.
You know my uncle, don't you?
Are you talking about Mr. Hong?
Did you guys already know each other from the past?
Sorry?
I have a feeling that you and my uncle...
could've known each other from a long time ago.
No, you're wrong. How would I know him?
- Are you sure? - Yes.
I'll go now if you're done.
You should borrow some books from me while you're here.
No, it's okay.
You should borrow a few. Come here.
Let's see.
This is a new edition. It'll help you. Give it a read.
Don't look at my face. Look at the book.
Here.
You're suddenly lending me books...
and being nice to me, so I feel awkward.
I'm not being nice to you.
I'm lending it to you as your boss...
so that you'll work harder as an employee.
Okay.
Come in.
Mr. Jang isn't in his seat...
I can't believe I'm seeing you here.
I should go now.
Since when was the director's office...
allowed to be entered by strangers like this?
Please sit down, Mother.
What are you doing here all of a sudden?
I dropped by after finishing my discussion about the investment.
Since when were you so close with Dal Nim?
You must be pretty close with her...
seeing that she even comes to your office like this.
Mother...
You only just became the director again.
You shouldn't give people something to talk about.
You already know very well what kind of person she is.
Jae Wook's already out of his mind...
because he's blinded by her.
But if you add onto that...
It's nothing like that. Don't be misunderstood.
Then you should've been careful not to cause any misunderstandings.
Even I get angry just by seeing you with her.
So how angry do you think Se Na must've been?
Mother,
have you ever heard anything about Se Na from Jae Hee before she died?
What do you mean?
I think Jae Hee also could've known about...
Se Na's feelings towards me.
You're mistaken.
Se Na told me that she started to like you after Jae Hee died.
If she liked you when Jae Hee was alive,
there's no way that Jae Hee wouldn't have known about that.
Plus, Jae Hee and Se Na...
grew up like sisters ever since they were little.
There's no way they'd fight over you.
- But... - I know why you're being like this.
I heard you met...
Jae Hee's high school friend because Dal Nim told you about her.
You should believe what Se Na says,
not what those strange women say to you.
You need Se Na by your side.
The reason I trust Choigo Foods...
is also because of Se Na.
Please console her so that she won't feel hurt.
I came to tell you that.
Am I asking for too much?
No, I understand what you mean.
That's so funny, Eun Jung.
- Sun Ho, you're home. - Come here and sit down.
- I'm home. - Yes, come sit down.
- When did you come? - Just a while ago.
I went shopping with Ms. Yoon today,
and I bought something for you.
What is it?
I heard it's good for your health.
I got the same thing from someone I know.
You really got the same present.
Who did you get it from?
That's none of your business.
Well, I was just wondering...
who could've thought of getting the same gift as Se Na.
Thank you for this.
Do you think she'll be able to start dancing after she takes that?
That won't be all.
She'll even be able to enter the triathlon.
Let's talk.
I'll talk first.
What's this?
You don't even remember, do you?
We first met each other on Jae Hee's...
18th birthday.
That's when you gave me this.
Are you okay?
You can wipe it with this.
Thank you.
You kept this with you until now?
That's when...
I started to like you.
Jae Hee really didn't know anything.
You're just mistaken.
The same goes for the photo.
Why would I have any reason to cut her out of the photo?
Jae Hee was always so nice to me.
I'm being honest with you right now.
What do I need to do to make you believe me?
Why are you believing Dal Nim...
instead of believing me?
I also want to believe you.
Is that why you went through my office records...
from four years ago,
only after hearing what she said to you?
It wasn't solely because of what Dal Nim said to me.
I figured Dal Nim wouldn't be suspicious of you...
if she checked your whereabouts of that day.
It was for your own sake.
Then I guess you believe me now.
I'm sure you also saw the email records.
That day was your birthday,
and it was also the day of Jae Hee's accident.
So I remember very clearly.
I was working at the office that day.
You'll soon find out with time...
how cunning Dal Nim is.
You'll one day find out that...
I'm right and she's wrong.
Take a look at this.
What's this?
We're planning to take over a food company soon.
It's a pretty good company.
Why are you showing me this?
I'd like you to take charge of this company.
What do you think?
I'm sorry, Mother. I enjoy working as a chef.
I know why you're doing this,
but I want to live my life by doing what I want.
Is it because of Dal Nim?
Is it because you want to stay close to her?
Are you doing this because you want to separate us?
If that's the real reason, I'm more inclined to turn you down.
Jae Wook.
I'll pretend like I didn't hear what you said.
I'll go now.
What are you doing in the middle of work, Dal Nim?
The rice seems different from before.
- What do you mean? - Look over there.
A lot of our customers didn't finish eating their rice.
People rarely did that in the past.
I received training regarding our ingredients.
If you look here,
it tells you how to differentiate Korean rice from Chinese rice.
Look.
Korean rice is shorter in length...
and wider in width. But take a look at this.
I don't know. I don't think I can tell the difference.
They look the same to me.
- I'm sure I'm right. - You're so conceited.
You can finish doing the rest, Dal Nim.
You should go too, Dong Jae. I'll clean up the rest.
No, it's okay. Let's clean up together.
You can go.
The delivery truck isn't here yet,
so I have to wait for that to come anyway.
Okay, then. I'll see you tomorrow.
Bye.
The rice used to be sticky and savory.
But this is so crumbly.
Why isn't he coming?
He should be here by now.
The receiver cannot answer your call. Please leave a message...
I wonder if he got into an accident.
He's here.
Mr. Kim.
- Ms. Oh. - What are you doing here?
Nothing.
(Chinese Rice)
- This is... - Give that back.
Are you switching bags right now?
You're switching the bags and selling...
Chinese rice as if it's Korean rice.
How can you do this?
Please listen to me. I'll explain everything.
I have a reason for doing this.
Whatever that reason may be,
lying about where the ingredient is from is a criminal act.
If the company finds out...
No, wait. That's not the issue right now.
You've fooled our customers.
Please do me a favor and turn a blind eye just this once.
I'm sorry, Mr. Kim. I'd like to forgive you,
but I don't think I can do that...
for the sake of our customers.
I'll have to report this to Ms. Ma and Chef Jung.
My daughter's sick.
She's only 10 years old.
She's going to die if she doesn't receive surgery.
How could I just do nothing as her father?
I'd even sell my own heart if I could.
I could do much worse...
than switching bags if I can save her.
I have nothing I can't do for her.
So please help me.
I have to earn money.
I need money for the hospital fee.
I can't afford to lose my job. So please...
Please turn a blind eye just this once.
Please. Please.
Please help me save my child,
and pretend like you didn't see what happened.
Why are you doing this? Please don't do this.
Stand up.
I'm not going to stand up until you promise to forgive me.
Then promise me that...
you'll never do this again.
I promise you.
Thank you so much.
I'll never forget your kindness.
But did you make a delivery to other places...
other than our restaurant?
I delivered the rice to a few other franchise restaurants,
and the development team at the head office.
What if they find out?
People probably ate what I delivered already.
How will anyone find out?
I'm sure no one will be able to know...
if I start delivering Korean rice again.
How sick is your daughter?
Wash the rice, soak it in water,
- and blend it with a blender. - Okay.
Wait.
What's wrong?
Don't you think there's something wrong with the rice?
The shapes and sizes are also different.
You're right.
I'm sure it's different from what we used to get.
Send this to the analysis team,
and ask them to check it.
Okay.
Come in.
What's wrong?
I have something to report to you.
There's a problem with the rice that got delivered to us.
What problem?
According to the analysis,
it turns out that the rice we received from the warehouse...
wasn't Korean rice.
We only recently launched...
the new distribution system that you came up with.
What should we do about this matter?
First, check what the problem was.
Check if there was a problem with the distribution process,
or if it was a mistake made by our supplier.
Investigate every single thing that may cause suspicion.
- Do it right now. - Okay.
It's hot, isn't it?
Here. Drink some iced coffee.
Thank you.
And take this.
What's that?
It's not much. Please use it to pay for your daughter's hospital fee.
No, it's okay. How can I take this?
It's okay. You can take it. Here.
Then I'll just think of it as borrowed money.
I'll take this money only if you give me your bank account number.
Okay, fine.
Are you happy now?
Thank you. I promise I'll pay you back.
Dal Nim.
Sun Ho asked me to bring him a bowl of short rib soup.
Do you want to go instead?
Okay, sure.
I'm so sorry, Dal Nim.
- What happened? - I found the culprit.
We found a bag that got switched in the delivery truck.
Who would do such a thing?
Come in.
Sir.
I'm sorry, Director Choi.
Hello.
I came to deliver food for Director Choi.
How could you do this of all people?
I'm so sorry. Please forgive me.
I don't think he could've done this by himself.
Did you receive help from anyone inside the company?
Well...
Tell me the truth.
Is there an accomplice?
Who is it?
Hurry up and tell me.
It's Ms. Oh Dal Nim who works at the restaurant.
Are you sure about that?
Yes, I'm sure.
(Sweet Enemy)
I don't care if she really did switch those bags...
or not.
I just want her out of my sight.
Dal Nim, you can quit your job and leave.
- Sorry? - You're fired.
Do you not understand?
I just know that Ms. Hong visited at the hospital.
She went to the hospital?
Se Na.
That peanut lady was Oh Dal Nim?
(Sweet Enemy)
