Mi-Do explains it to Namgung Ho that she was delirious that day. What she said wasn’t honest. She was just drunk that day. But he doesn’t want to listen to any word from her. He walks out of her house, and he goes to his house. He packs his stuff, and he tries to leave. But he sees the love photo of them. He throws the photo on the floor.

At present, Tae-Seung returns home. The cops are waiting for Tae-Seung. At the police station, the cop takes out Mr. Kim’s photo. He asks Tae-Seung does he know Mr. Kim? Tae-Seung remembers Mr. Kim called him. He gave some money to the guy, and he let him flee.
Tae-Seung tells the cop that he thought it was a prank call. He’s surprised that the guy is a real researcher. The cop takes out another photo. It shows that Mr. Kim was in the alley nearby Jaekang Law Firm before he disappeared. The cop asks Tae-Seung where was he? Can someone prove it? Tae-Seung remembers he and Mi-Do were kissing in the office at the time. He says nobody can prove it.
At the restaurant, Ju-Hyeok is surprised that Tae-Seung forgave Mr. Kim. Tae-Seung explains it to Ju-Hyeok that he ignored the guy because he thought Ryan Intercontinental wanted to use some dirty tricks before the trial. Ju-Hyeok asks Tae-Seung to find the file in Mr. Kim’s hand. Tae-Seung comforts Ju-Hyeok that he will find out who is Mr. Kim’s first love. Ju-Hyeok laughs. He tells Tae-Seung that he doesn’t have to worry about the police.
Ju-Hyeok gets a call from Lawyer Lee. He gets angry because the lawyer doesn’t find the stuff. Tae-Seung tells Ju-Hyeok that there’s a silver safe in his living room. But the stuff he’s looking for isn’t in the safe. He found out that Ryan Intercontinental was subjected to a surprise search, and he discovered the Malaysian Account that he didn’t know.

Namgung Ho returns home. Mi-Do is waiting for him. She asks him to come home. She will leave. He cannot sleep well elsewhere. He asks her does she force herself to be a director because of him? She shakes her head. He mentions Tae-Seung said she wanted to flee. But she didn’t have face to tell it to him. She says she was so tired, and she said something wrong. She confesses it to him that she wanted to give up after she failed many times. But she couldn’t let it go. So she used him as an excuse.
She realized one thing when she filmed the movie. She’s way out of her league. She doesn’t have ability to film a movie of this scale. She’s not as impressive as he thinks she is. It’s not a problem that she’s bad lucky, or she doesn’t have a chance. She doesn’t have the talent. She’s terrible. She guesses he’s very disappointed in her.
He tells her that she’s a bad girl. He asks her why does she say these words now? He thinks she wants to elicit sympathy. He refuses to be the fool. She thinks his world will come crashing down as long as she’s slightly injured? She’s using him.
She agrees with what he said that she’s using him. So she asks him to forgive her. He refuses to do it. He doesn’t want to look at her. He offers to reconsider their marriage. He asks her to leave.
Su-A is at home. She wants to let someone take care of the cat. She has a perfect candidate in her mind. She tells Bambi that the guy had the experience to be a cat slave. She has sent her photo to the guy. But he doesn’t reply.
The next day at Hunmin Confectionery, Su-A tastes the chip. She’s told that Namgung Ho took away all sweet potatoes. She finds Namgung Ho on the roof. She asks him where are the sweet potatoes? She believes that these are imported goods. They can get the evidence after they send it for testing. He mentions the bread pie collective kickback case. Ho-Sik was in the team. Everyone thinks he was caught and fired. But it’s not the truth.
He was demoted. It was a revenge. Because they planned to blow their whistles. Other members of the team resigned within one year. Ho-Sik couldn’t resign. Because his elder daughter took piano lessons. She was so talented. He said he would resign if his daughter was just a little talented. But she was a genius.
Su-A knows Namgung Ho wants to scare her. He tells her that those guys dug Ho-Sik’s family life. His wife was a victim of an important case. She was even on the news. They posted it on the network of the company.
Namgung Ho tells Su-A that it’s very hard. She says she’s ready for it. She thinks she can do it because he weathered the pressure. He confesses it to her that he’s about to break down. He’s in great pain.
Su-A works in the office. Sang-Hoon invites her to go to cheer up Namgung Ho with him. But they see the guy sleeping at the table after he drank at the restaurant. Sang-Hoon carries Namgung Ho into the car. He guesses he had a hard time. Su-A joins Namgung Ho in the car. He asks him is he drunk? She thinks he lied to her to let her give up. He’s acting. A bottle of wine wouldn’t get him that drunk. She wants to tell something to him since he’s drunk.
She tries to confess her feelings to him. But he wakes up. She grabs his collar. She asks him where did he put the sweet potato? He says he threw it away. He leans on her. He calls Mi-Do.
The next day at the cafe, Tae-Seung waits for Mi-Do while he eats the sugar. She doesn’t come. He wonders doesn’t she want to be a director? He goes to the restaurant. Ju-Hyeok and Mi-Do are waiting for him. Ju-Hyeok tells Tae-Seung that he went to beg Mi-Do to help him. He tells Mi-Do that Tae-Seung has concealed it from her because he worries that he will bring trouble to her. He’s in a bad situation. They need her to testify.
Ju-Hyeok leaves the room. Mi-Do claims that she won’t testify. Although she doesn’t believe Ju-Hyeok’s words, she doesn’t want to be related to Tae-Seung. If she knew he would come, she wouldn’t come.
Tae-Seung stops Mi-Do from leaving. He tells her that his lawyer career is over if she doesn’t testify. But she thinks he has a big talent. She believes that he has other ways. He says he doesn’t have it. If she doesn’t help him, his life will be ruined. He asks her doesn’t she want to do that? She says yes. He tells her that she’s so cruel. She says she’s not cruel at all. Because he follows the guy to do things so that he fell into the trap. He should grit his teeth and hang in there.
He asks her who told her it was a trap? He intended to lose the lawsuit. He really saw the Whistleblower. He went to take care of the case when she was sleeping. He asks her to continue to treat him that way. Completely ignore him. If he’s crazy and he calls her, don’t pick up. Even if he goes over, please treat him as if he’s not there. He wishes it’s the last time that she was stupid to call over. Otherwise, her life will be ruined.
Tae-Seung drives out of the parking lot. Mi-Do blocks his way. She gets in his car. She asks him is what he just said true? He admits it to her that he did it. He thinks she should know he’s a bad guy. She knows it. But she wished he could be a plastic waste. But he isn’t. He’s an Aluminum can trash who’s decomposition after 200 years. He yells at her. It’s not her business. He wants to disappear from her life.
She tells him that she gets angry because he’s even more pitiful than she has imagined. She hurt the person she loved most for a jerk like him. She’s really a crazy woman. She actually had feelings for him.
Tae-Seung stops his car. Mi-Do gets off his car. She walks away. He notices that the white car is going to hit her. He drives his car to hit the white car. She passes out on the road. He runs to her. He calls her name.
Mi-Do wakes up in the ward at the hospital. She asks Tae-Seung what happened. He tells her that she was in a car accident. He tries to go to call the doctor. But she says she’s fine. Sometimes she tends to act a little impulsively. If she scared him, she apologizes. He tells her that her younger brother is on the way to the hospital. A family member must be present during the examination. Her brother just called, so he told the truth to him.
Mi-Do drags Tae-Seung. She asks him to follow her. He brings up that he was the one who caused her to be hurt. He’s the person responsible for the accident. If he leaves now, there will be a problem. She points out that he’s a criminal. It’s fine that he takes on one more charge. He agrees to follow her. But he suggests that she should be careful when she moves. She asks him was he hurt? She mentions he’s afraid of shots.
Young-Do grabs Tae-Seung. He punches him. He asks him who is he? Wan-Do stops Young-Do. Namgung Ho tells Young-Do that Tae-Seung was his junior when he was in the army. He walks to Mi-Do. He tells her that she scared him. He hugs her.
Outside the hospital, Namgung Ho beats Tae-Seung. Tae-Seung thinks it’s a misunderstanding. He and Mi-Do aren’t that kind of relationship. He likes her, and he keeps pestering her. But she’s not interested in him. Namgung Ho tells Tae-Seung that he cannot fool him. He’s very sure about one thing that Mi-Do was hurt, but he’s fine. What was he doing when her arm was crushed? He couldn’t protect her. Namgung Ho asks Tae-Seung to stay away from Mi-Do. Otherwise, he will make him regret it.
Namgung Ho walks into Mi-Do’s ward. Mi-Do tells him that she has her reasons. He reminds her that she stepped on the time they spent together. He asks her to be honest one time. He thinks she doesn’t care for him at all. She’s just selfish to do what she wants to do. She asks him does he think she doesn’t care if he gets hurt? She doesn’t care if their memories are erased? She tells him that he’s wrong. She’s also in great pain. He’s everything to her. He’s still incredibly precious.
She wouldn’t hurt him after he experienced so many things. It makes her hate herself more. She confesses it to him that she likes the guy. He made her have feelings. Her daily life is always the same, and she’s not interested in movies anymore. She has no hope for the future, and she’s aged. But her heart wavered. He’s like a light for her dull and uninspiring life.
Namgung Ho doesn’t believe it. He thinks it’s just the excuses for Self-Justification. Mi-Do uses the beautiful words to glorify. She feels better in her heart. Every time she does it, he thinks he’s punished. They shouldn’t have encountered from the very beginning. Before they ruin each other’s lives, they should quit. He leaves her ward. She cries.
The next day in the morning, Namgung Ho finds the photo piece. Mi-Do fixed their photo. At Hunmin Confectionery, Namgung Ho is punished. Su-A finds him on the roof. She realizes that he knew it was a trap, and he took away the sweet potato. He reminds her that those guy mistook that it was him. She will have a chance to look into it after they let their guard down. She must go to look into it, and resolve the case. So he will return to Team 3.
But she thinks it’s not right. She wants to go to talk to those guys. But he tells her that she’s the only one who can do the job. She asks him why he changed his mind suddenly. He didn’t want her to go to look into it. He says he lied. He thought she was very cool. So she should keep doing cool things.
Namgung Ho returns to the office. He receives a message from Young-Do. Young-Do has known Mi-Do isn’t directing Hae-Na’s movie. Namgung Ho goes to Mi-Do’s parents’ home. Mi-Do doesn’t pick up the phone. Young-Do knows Mi-Do hides every time she’s in trouble. He mentions he said it many times that she would fail. She should have given up when her movie was a box office flop.
Namgung Ho scolds Young-Do. He tells him that he won’t forgive him if he says something like that in front of Mi-Do. He will cut ties with him. The person who suffers the most is Mi-Do. Young-Do knows nothing. Namgung Ho knows Suk-Hee is disappointed in Mi-Do. But Mi-Do tried her best. If she sees her, he asks her to pretend she doesn’t know the case. Otherwise she will break down. He will call them after he finds Mi-Do.
Namgung Ho looks for Mi-Do. He remembers Tae-Seung told him that he didn’t know why Mi-Do was in the car accident. If he knew it, he wouldn’t say such words. Her heart was broken.
