With shaking hands, Real Eun Joong tries to call Soo Young to warn her about the danger but she's already on the phone talking with Secretary Kim. Desperate, Eun Joong runs out to stop a cab and pulls the cabdriver out (This is a police matter!) so he can drive dangerously to the house.
Kim is already at the house to pick up his latest victim. Soo Young has just gotten into the car when her phone rings and she sees it is Eun Joong. Before she can answer it Kim reaches over and takes the phone away from her. (Red flag! Red flag!) When he sees who is calling, Kim turns the phone off and tells Soo Young he's keeping her phone so their camping trip won't be ruined. (Red flag! For God's sake, Soo Young, don't you know a red flag when you see one?!?)
Meanwhile at the courthouse, Fake Eun Joong throws his mother under the bus as he tells the judge that their witness Dr. Kim is not going to be here today to testify. In turn Hwa Young throws her son under the bus when she officially announces to the judge that she's dropping her lawyer right this second. She's even got the paperwork done so she must have seen this coming.
Hwa Young orders Fake to get out. As a parting gift she gives him the crumpled promissory note between him and Joo Ran. The judge asks how much time Hwa Young will need to find another lawyer. Not much time at all as she plans to represent herself from now on. Girl Power!
Tired of being ignored, Tae Ha suddenly makes the announcement that he too is firing his lawyer and now wants to be represented by Fake Eun Joong. Remember, everything is legal in DramaLand.
Without needing any time to prepare, Fake begins his opening arguments. He brings up the dirt on Hwa Young about her taking in an orphan and passing him off as her long lost biological son. Then there was the whole press conference thing as well as how she's been buddy buddy with her son's kidnapper while for the past thirty years she hasn't treated her husband like a husband.
So now it's Hwa Young's turn to bring up Tae Ha's dirt. She starts off with the fact that before they were even married he had Joo Ran holed up somewhere having his baby and that he's continued this extramarital relationship for thirty years. Fake argues that Hwa Young waited too long to file for divorce because of infidelity. (Is there really an expiration date?)
Okay, then how about this: Hwa Young tells how her husband had her doctor prescribe the wrong medication for her. While she was under the influence of the drugs, Tae Ha made her lose her legal license. Fake again argues there's no proof of this. You want your proof, Fake? Here's your proof: Hwa Young calls Go Joo Ran to the stand.
Still driving his (stolen) cab, Real Eun Joong calls Detective Gu to get some help in tracking down Soo Young and Secreeptary Kim.
Back at the courtroom (which honestly is much more exciting than the search for Soo Young), Hwa Young plays the recording Joo Ran made of her when she was blitzed out of her mind. Fake tries to claim the video isn't sufficient evidence and could have been faked by the women. Hwa Young continues to pull rabbits out of her hat as she also as the housekeeper from the country house (where she was kept prisoner) here to testify.
Over at the very crowded campsite, Soo Young is getting some dinner ready (on her Center Pole stove, of course). Secretary Kim pulls out a knife to cut up some vegetables. Soo Young wonders what kind of guy has a knife in his back pocket. The one time something makes sense (who doesn't take a knife with them camping?) and she has to notice while all the other stop signs just whiz on past her. It's a shame the writers made you so stupid, Soo Young.
That night taxi-stealer Eun Joong gets to the campground where Detective Gu is already waiting for him. Thanks to Gu they've got a pretty good idea where Secretary Kim is. During this time Secretary Kim and Soo Young are enjoying a glass of wine. Kim is spouting off stuff about Ernest Hemingway and Soo Young dares to correct him. Watch out, girl - I think you've tripped one of his psycho switches when you corrected him. Psychos don't like it when you point out they're wrong.
Secretary Kim is about to make his move and roughly drag Soo Young into the Center Pole tent when Eun Joong finally finds them and comes running in to kick Kim's ass. Secretary Kim pulls out his knife and ONLY NOW does Soo Young start to think there's something not quite right about this guy. Eun Joong knocks the knife away and pummels the creep. (While no one else ten feet away in their campers hears this fight.)
Gu comes running up and has to pull Eun Joong off the bleeding man. Eun Joong orders the cop to cuff Kim and charge him with the murder of Deputy Chief Song. Also, did I mention Eun Joong is wearing his suit this entire time and he looks mighty fine in it? Eye Candy Time.
Ah, Secretary Kim is no Kang Ho. He's not going to go down alone for this one and starts naming names, specifically Tae Ha's.
Back at the Jang house, Tae Ha has received a summons from the district attorney concerning the murders of Ah Mi's husband and the deputy chief. Both Tae Ha and Fake Eun Joong are listening in on the clone phone when Hwa Young calls Real Eun Joong. He's also gotten a summons from the D.A. Hwa Young has to run her big mouth and mention the evidence only Eun Joong has concerning the murders so he'd better turn it all in tomorrow.
Eun Joong brings Soo Young home. Right away Hwa Young can see something is wrong with the girl and that her son's knuckles are bloody. Ah Mi does what she does best and comforts Soo Young for being so stupid while Eun Joong tells the elders what happened.
Over in Real's old office, Fake has hired a locksmith to break into Real's locked desk. Oh Real Eun Joong, why did you leave your investigation records in your desk located at the center of all evil?
Real Eun Joong has Ah Mi drive him and the stolen cab back so the show can work in one more song from the OST.
Fake is about to burn Real's papers when Joo Ha finds him and calls her not-brother out for turning to the Dark Side like Tae Ha. Since when did you get so self-righteous, Joo Ha? Oh wait, she actually says something that makes sense. Fake is whining about how Real came and took his position away. Joo Ha points out Fake took Real's position for 25 long years so stop acting like a victim.
Real comes home to the Jang house. Tae Ha asks him not to go to court tomorrow. Real insists on going. Tae Ha warns that he's not going to lose, he's never lost before and he's never going to lose ever. Real Eun Joong replies this time Tae Ha will be fighting his own son.
The next morning Real Eun Joong stops by the hospital to empty Joo Pil's bed pan and stuff. Joo Pil has been reborn since his baptism by fire and now offers to help Eun Joong any way he can (from his hospital bed). Joo Pil tells how long before this he helped to fabricate a scandal in order to control the D.A. so Eun Joong better watch out for that.
Tae Ha is in his office looking at some photos of the D.A. (I'm not sure if they're already doctored or are to be used to be doctored) when his secretary announces there's a Ha Myeong Geun insisting on seeing the chairman. Tae Ha allows his arch enemy into the office. Myeong Geun... gets down on his knees! What are you doing?!
Myeong Geun apologizes to Tae Ha for taking Eun Joong away and keeps asking the evil bastard what he can do to make it up to Tae Ha.
Meanwhile at the D.A.'s office Real Eun Joong is... confessing to being an accomplice to the murders of Gi Chan and Song! What are you doing?!
Tae Ha has dragged Myeong Geun up to the roof of the building. If Myeong Geun is truly sorry for what he's done then Tae Ha orders him to jump off the building.
Okay, that wasn't a very good cliffhanger. You've got two more episodes, Show. You'd better pick it up.
