My mom is...
The Black Rose?
Eun Seok.
You knew that?
Yes, I knew.
I'm sorry.
I didn't fool you from the start.
I only recently found out that she's the Black Rose.
I'm sorry.
What...
What did you just say?
Grandpa.
Grandpa!
Are you okay?
- Grandfather. - Move!
Jenny.
Grandfather, I'm sorry.
Grandpa, don't be like this. Just hit me instead.
Move!
I want you to repeat...
what you just said.
Tell me...
what you just said to Eun Seok!
Grandfather.
I can't even ask you for forgiveness.
It's all true.
I always knew she wasn't an ordinary woman.
Eun Seok, did you say you already knew about this?
I only recently found out for sure.
My goodness.
I can't believe this.
How could this happen?
How in the world...
Myung Su... Myung Su.
I cannot believe this, Myung Su.
Dad.
What's wrong?
What happened?
Oh, my goodness.
Dad, what happened?
Shouldn't you go to the hospital?
I'm okay.
Ask my doctor to come to my house.
Okay, sir.
What happened?
Well...
You darn punk!
All I wanted from you was to live a happy life.
But you ended up marrying your enemy's daughter?
She's the daughter of our enemy who killed your father!
What's that supposed to mean?
The daughter of our enemy?
Does that mean Ms. Wang...
is the Black Rose?
Why don't you ask her son-in-law?
Ask him what's going on right now.
Tell me.
Is he telling the truth?
- Yes. - What? Are you serious?
Where's Jenny?
I want you to take your grandfather home.
- Aunt Ae Ri. - What's wrong?
Are you worried she might mistreat Jenny?
I can't believe you still trust her...
when her mother is the one that killed your father!
I cannot forgive those two witches.
I feel so angry and resentful!
I'm so angry and resentful.
Bring me the Black Rose right now!
Grandpa, calm down.
We can't be emotional about this.
What?
She keeps denying it.
If we act rashly, she'll attack us instead.
What?
The statute of limitations has expired already.
We need to prove that she's guilty with something else.
My goodness, this makes me feel so angry and resentful!
Myung Su! Myung Su!
Ms. Oh.
Aunt.
- Get over here. - I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Aunt.
Ms. Oh, what's wrong with you? Please stop.
What? The Black Rose is your mother?
The Black Rose?
Your mother was the Black Rose?
Your mother is a murderer, a fraud, and a thief!
I'm... I'm sorry.
You and your mother are both swindlers.
How could you have the guts...
to work here as a designer?
How could you? How dare you work here?
Ms. Oh, please calm down. Please stop it!
- Don't get involved. - Ms. Oh.
I have nothing to say. You can just kill me.
Then go ahead and die! I'd love to see you die!
- Go die with your mother! - Ms. Oh!
Hey.
How could you be so brazen like this?
How could you have the guts to marry into our family?
How dare you? How?
Who do you think you are?
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
What?
Is Ms. Wang really the Black Rose?
We still need to check a few things.
Ms. Oh came to see Jenny and threw a huge fit.
She called her a murderer's daughter.
Meanwhile, Jenny couldn't say anything...
and just kept apologizing to her.
Sir, can you hear me?
Yes, I can hear you.
I'm just keeping my eyes closed because I don't want to open them.
How is he?
His blood pressure suddenly went up. That's what caused the shock.
But he took good care of his health, so he'll be fine.
If he takes good rest today,
he'll be back to normal tomorrow.
Thank you.
If something happens, please call me right away.
I'll send over an ambulance.
Okay, goodbye.
Hello.
Mom, what's wrong?
Why was the doctor here?
Hey, is my grandpa sick?
Yes, I heard they caught the Black Rose or something.
What?
Grandpa.
I was going to tell you once everything became clear.
This isn't how I wanted you to find out.
Eun Seok, I heard you caught the Black Rose. Who is she?
Who is she?
I'll tell you next time.
Oh, okay.
What are you doing here?
I'm here to meet the chairman.
His room is over there. Go on inside.
By the way, who is the Black Rose?
Why won't anyone tell me?
How is he?
His doctor just left. He's better now.
Dong Joo.
Yes, sir. Don't get up, sir.
If I could have things my way, I'd go to Jenny's house...
and completely destroy the Black Rose.
You can't do that, sir.
An emotional reaction will only put you in trouble.
I don't...
trust Eun Seok anymore.
He's been living with the Black Rose...
as her son-in-law.
And he's head over heels for her daughter.
So there's no way I can trust him.
From now on, I want him off the case.
I want you to take over and do everything you can...
to make the Black Rose kneel before me.
Make her kneel in front of Myung Su.
Make sure she isn't able to come up with any excuses.
Okay, sir. I'll do that.
Eun Seok, I want you to move out of that house right now.
Why aren't you answering me?
Okay, I will.
- What? - What?
Jenny?
Yes.
My gosh, this is unbelievable.
Then what's going to happen to our family now?
What do you think?
It's time for your grandpa to take revenge.
But what's going to happen to Eun Seok and Jenny?
Isn't that so obvious? They'll have to break up.
They can't live together anymore.
But Jenny and Eun Seok went through so much to get married.
He's dealing with his father's enemy.
If he can't break up with her, that'd make him an imbecile.
Exactly.
Man Su also knew everything.
And it seems like Jenny found out pretty recently.
Is that why Jenny decided to quit?
Yes, I think she was planning to tell me the truth...
after she was done clearing things up.
Is that why she wanted us to erase her name from the webpage?
She probably didn't want to ruin the company's reputation.
I guess you're right. She did mention a similar reason.
Now, I understand why.
If Jenny recently found out, she must be shocked as well.
She's very distressed right now.
Have you met Ms. Wang?
No, not yet.
Was she with Deputy Kang in front of his building...
Yes, they probably met up often to think about what to do...
after they found out what we were up to.
If Deputy Kang wields power,
we might only end up making a fool of ourselves.
We need to find legitimate proof for the sake of everyone.
Okay.
- What? - I feel so disturbed.
I kept calling Jenny, but she won't answer any of my calls.
That's... That's nonsense.
That can't be true. No way.
Chairman Oh collapsed.
Ms. Oh came to our office...
and hit Jenny which totally startled everyone.
Words can't explain today's mess.
I feel so sorry for Jenny.
I can't believe that kind girl was raised by such a horrible woman.
My gosh. Now that I think about it, I shouldn't be here.
Mom, what's wrong?
I need to meet the Black Rose.
About Ahn Man Su...
Yes?
He's known as the grandson of a conglomerate,
but it turns out he was adopted.
What?
He was raised by a single father. And after his father passed away,
an international adoption agency helped him get adopted overseas.
He was raised by a single father?
His father was a single father who never got married.
Meanwhile, we know nothing about his mother.
A single father?
Please forgive her.
Please.
Please forgive her.
Jenny, get up.
What are you doing here?
Eun Seok...
and his grandfather finally found out about everything today.
So are you here praying on behalf of the Black Rose?
Why would you do that?
Because you're my mom.
You're my mom.
Because I'm your daughter.
I'm no different.
If you're the Black Rose, that makes me a criminal's daughter.
Don't be so foolish.
Even if the deity forgives us, nothing will change.
Mom.
Don't you feel guilty at all?
You don't need to do this.
I'm the one who made a mistake,
and the deity doesn't have the right to forgive me.
How could you say something like that?
I was born with a hopeless life, but if the deity really existed,
I wouldn't have lived the way I did.
So don't bother wasting your time praying to a deity...
that no longer even exists.
No, I'm not going to listen to you.
Plus, I wasn't asking the deity to forgive us.
I prayed that you...
I mean,
the Black Rose...
I prayed that the Black Rose...
will acknowledge her crimes...
and sincerely apologize to the victims...
so that she can be forgiven.
I want the Black Rose to stop resenting the world...
and be determined to go back to being just my mom.
Then I'll stand by your side forever.
I don't care if people point their fingers at us.
They can condemn us to death.
I could even sell my soul...
if that means I could make you come back to being my mom!
Jenny.
The Black Rose isn't someone who will succumb that easily.
And those who need to succumb are the ones...
who made the Black Rose live that way, not me.
What are you doing here?
Jenny's inside.
So?
She's crying and asking for forgiveness...
on behalf of her mother.
The person who's guilty doesn't even seem bothered.
Jenny's going through so much pain because of her mother.
It's always like that.
Our parents aren't always perfect.
I wonder if things would've changed...
if our parents...
were a bit different.
It sounds like you have a lot of resentment toward your parents.
I thought you were raised by a prestigious family in France.
Was that not the case?
I'm not sure.
What kind of parents did you have?
They were very nice people. I was blessed to have them as my parents.
I'm not talking about your parents in France.
I'm talking about your mother who disappeared...
after she had you in Korea.
I don't get what you're saying.
What did you say about the Black Rose?
I already told you that it's not me. How dare you humiliate Jenny?
I'm going to sue you for libel.
I'm going to file for damages and make you pay...
for making Jenny get slapped and humiliated.
Go ahead.
What?
I won't forgive you, and the same goes for your grandfather and aunt.
So bring me evidence.
Bring me the evidence to prove that I'm the Black Rose.
I'm also dying to know.
You really are unbelievable, Mother.
I mean,
Black Rose.
Jenny, get up.
Don't come near me.
And I don't want you to come see me anymore.
Jenny.
I'm ready...
to face it all.
So listen to your family and do what they tell you to do.
Jenny, what in the world is going on?
My goodness.
When are they coming home?
Ms. Wang.
What are you doing here? What do you want?
Where's Jenny?
Why are you looking for her?
I got worried after I heard about what happened at work.
Well...
I was worried,
but I also came to ask something.
Ask what to whom?
Well, I heard...
you're the Black Rose.
I'm not the Black Rose. Who told you that?
I'm not here to criticize you for that.
I'm only here to ask you a question.
Can we talk for a moment?
Why don't we get some coffee?
Follow me inside.
I'm not the Black Rose, but what is it that you want to ask?
I already know everything.
But that's not what's important to me right now.
I've heard so many things about the Black Rose,
and I always thought...
there'd be something special about her.
But you're the Black Rose?
It's just so funny.
I really can't believe it.
I can't believe a woman like you turned out to be the Black Rose.
I told you already! I'm not the Black Rose!
Okay, sure. Whatever.
I'm willing to forgive you for everything...
as long as you're honest with me about something.
Forgive me for what?
Please do me a favor...
and be honest.
Please me the truth.
What is it about?
Well...
That day when you got chased by the cops...
and suddenly disappeared.
There was a flower festival that day,
and that's actually when I lost my daughter.
You and my daughter...
both disappeared at a similar time and place.
So what?
So I was wondering...
if you ever saw a crying girl while you were on the run.
Here.
This is my daughter. She's my little baby.
Did you happen to see my daughter, Kyung Ah,
crying for her mother?
I saw everything.
Are you playing hide-and-seek?
Yes, do you want to play with me?
- Yes. - Come here.
- Kyung Ah! - That's my sister.
My life's already hectic as it is. Why would you come here...
and ask me if I saw your daughter?
- Are you sure you didn't see her? - I never saw that girl.
And why would the Black Rose be interested in a little girl...
when she was probably busy running from the cops?
- Do you think so? - Of course.
Really?
Okay.
I've always wanted to meet the Black Rose and ask her this.
But now that I have,
- Do you feel relieved? - I feel frustrated.
I feel a lot more frustrated than before.
The Black Rose was...
my last hope.
I really thought...
the Black Rose would've seen my daughter.
But I guess I was wrong.
I was wrong.
Stop crying and wipe your tears.
Jenny will be home soon. You should wait and say hello...
since you came all the way here.
Okay, thank you.
I can't believe...
I'm with Ji Hwa Ja right now.
This is all because of Ahn Man Su.
Things came this far...
because I totally got fooled by him.
Jenny.
I'm the one who should be asking for forgiveness.
I'm...
I'm the one at fault.
Please forgive me.
The Black Rose was my one and only hope.
Why isn't Jenny coming?
She must feel so uneasy and distressed.
My goodness.
- Jenny. - Ms. Ji.
You must be going through so much.
I heard what happened.
Ms. Ji.
It's okay.
It's not your fault.
Time will take care of everything.
I promise.
It's okay.
You're acting like you're at a funeral.
Stop crying like that at my house.
I'm sorry.
Your lips are all chapped.
My gosh.
Your pretty face has become a mess.
Let's go inside your room.
You should rest for now.
Just get some rest.
Just leave it to the skies to take care of this.
Ms. Ji.
What am I going to do now?
Go ahead.
Go ahead and cry.
You'll at least...
feel better if you cry.
(Shady Mom-in-law)
(Shooting episode 102)
(They finish saying their lines.)
(But they don't hear the director yelling "cut".)
(So she just begins to improvise.)
(Jenny accepts the challenge.)
(Ae Young thinks about what to say next.)
(This is so fun to watch.)
(Jenny stops waiting for Ae Young and ad-libs another dialogue.)
(Should I add the eggs first or the flour?)
(She attacks her with ad-libs.)
(Ae Young doesn't know what to say.)
(The director finally says "cut".)
(Jenny wins!)
Deputy Kang and Ms. Wang were close acquaintances?
We witnessed the two of them meeting each other.
I found the person who killed you, Father.
Please wait a little more.
I'll make her kneel before you and apologize.
I think I'll be able to meet Kyung Ah soon.
You promised that you'll find her for me.
Please give me a bit more time. I promise you'll meet her soon.
