Sleepless Society: Insomnia (2020) s01e02 Episode Script

Episode 2

Hey, you.
Hey, you.
No!
Oh, come on.
Calm down. I'm not going to hurt you.
Who are you?
And why am I here?
Here.
Go and pack your things.
I'll take you to the airport.
From there,
you might have to travel alone.
But don't worry.
I have people
to watch your back over there.
What, I don't look like the picture?
You're
Tew's brother
who she said would help me?
That's right. You can call me Tle.
And you're a police officer?
Yes, of course. You think I would wear
a fake uniform to scam you?
So what happened to the taxi driver?
I hit him and knocked him out.
But he has probably woken up by now.
Seeing how things have gone so far,
don't you think you should just turn back?
Turn back? Why would I do that?
If I had to guess,
I would say someone sent the taxi driver
to stop you from getting to the island.
And you going to the island
is really not a good idea.
Because the police have already concluded
that your mother really did those things.
This is the summary report and
all the evidence in your mother's case.
You can take a look.
The knife was the murder weapon.
You can guess whose fingerprints
were all over it.
And the receipt
was evidence that
on the day before the incident,
your mother bought the kerosene
used in the arson of Toon's house.
The people who surrounded her
and captured her
also confirmed they smelled kerosene
coming from her.
They said your mother didn't resist.
She even asked someone to drive her
to the station to give herself up.
But on the way there,
she decided to flip the script,
and then made the car drive into a tree.
So the woman who was driving the car
was badly injured,
and your mother got away.
After that, no one saw her again
until she was already
leaving the island on the ferry.
The last place where
your mother was spotted
was Phuket,
from this security camera picture.
Since then, your mother has disappeared.
So what now?
Should I book you a ticket
back to Bangkok?
Wait.
You haven't said anything
about the motive.
Well, you know this already.
The motive was jealousy,
because your father had an affair
with my sister.
It's your sister you're talking about!
Do you really believe without a doubt
that she was someone's mistress?
I can't deny the truth.
What's in this diary
makes it impossible for me.
The diary wasn't destroyed in the fire
because she kept it at the school.
PLEASE DON'T CALL ME SHAMELESS.
I CAN STILL TELL RIGHT FROM WRONG.
NO MATTER HOW MUCH I LOVE HIM
NOBODY WANTS TO GET STUCK
WITH UNWANTED FEELINGS
Toon never mentioned the name of the guy.
She always referred to him as "he."
And in the diary, she always wrote about
going over to have dinner at his house.
As far as I know,
it was your parents who always
invited her over for dinner, right?
You can keep it and read it
on your flight back.
But my mother hoped that
I would find out the truth and then tell
everyone she didn't kill those people.
All the evidence here
has already given you the truth.
FORENSIC POLICE
But I think there's one thing
that isn't true.
You said the knife was found
in Toon's house, right?
I guess it was,
because your mother was seen
heading to Toon's house without it.
And you also said
all the fingerprints on it
belonged to my mother?
That's right.
Are you sure
all the fingerprints belonged to her?
You can read the report.
It says there are only
If this knife had been in Toon's house,
it should have Toon's fingerprints too,
not just my mother's.
Unless,
someone intentionally wiped out
all those fingerprints
in order to frame my mother.
Let's go.
Where are you going?
The ferry dock.
You can see there's something
suspicious about this case.
If police on the island,
including yourself,
aren't going to reopen the case,
someone else should do the job,
and that's going to be me.
Asshole!
What's up? Have you been here long?
Yes, for a while.
What the hell?
Faye.
Did you get darker?
Asshole!
If you weren't so handsome,
I would've yelled worse things at you!
What's that?
What old lady are you holding it for?
Old lady?
There's really no accounting for taste.
Hey, you guys, this is Mo, my girlfriend.
This is my friend Suea.
-And this is
-Faye.
I know her.
We met at the Young Designers Contest.
Which I won.
The ferry is leaving!
Anybody else getting on?
The ferry is leaving. Let's go.
-Let's go!
-Let's go!
Come on!
Please wait!
Iya?
You never told me
you have a friend who's a model.
Iya and I haven't seen each other
for years.
-Iya.
-Yes?
What made you suddenly
decide to come back?
You said nothing the other day.
What other day?
I ran into Suea at the hospital
the other day.
I'm just coming back to deal with
some business about my house.
Faye?
Faye?
Faye, you've changed a lot.
Nothing strange about that.
Aren't you afraid of coming back?
Afraid of what?
Is there something scary on the island?
It's so hot!
Please hurry!
It's island weather.
Drama queen!
Win, how are you getting home?
My dad is picking me up.
What about you?
My dad is picking me up too.
Can I come with you?
Sure.
Nobody's home at your house, right?
-That's right.
-My dad is here.
Look, our son has just arrived.
You wait here, okay? I'll go get him.
Su! Wait!
Hi, Mrs. Su.
-Mom!
-Why are you here?
-Mom!
-Why are you here?
-Calm down, Mom!
-Please calm down.
Why did you come back?
-Why did you come back?
-Calm down, Mom.
-Su.
-Where's your mother?
Where's your mother?
Where's your mother?
-Where's your mother?
-Su.
-Su.
-Where's your mother?
She doesn't know anything, Su!
-Su!
-How could she not know?
Where's your mother?
That's enough!
He
He was so tiny.
He was only a few months old.
You know
your mother killed him
even though he was
just a tiny little thing?
Please stop!
She has nothing to do with it!
Come on, let's go home.
There it is,
the scary thing she has to face.
And this is just the beginning.
You're so quiet, Iya.
You're still thinking about it?
Don't be mad at Dr. Su.
What she's been through is quite heavy.
Yes, I understand.
That place is now a conservation area.
If your mom knew about it,
she would be happy.
Mr. Wisanu, about my mom's case,
are there any new updates?
Well, there's nothing yet.
Do you remember anything
about the night of the incident?
About what happened?
Well,
it was just like everyone talked about.
I think you should just
forget about it.
The island isn't so cut off
from civilization like you said.
It seems pretty modern.
Are the politicians
taking good care of it?
No.
We can't expect anything
from those people.
No one cares about an island
in the middle of nowhere.
We've all had to fight
for everything we have here.
The island has its own
special administration,
created to raise funds
for the island's development.
In the past, the island was prosperous
from the mining industry.
When that was no longer the case,
the island was forgotten.
That's why we have
our special administration.
My dad is not only
the subdistrict headman,
he's also the head of the administration.
KRA YA NGAN ISLAND WOMEN'S ASSOCIATION
There's a women's association here?
That's so feminist.
It was created seven years ago.
My mom was the founding member.
It's like a women's cave.
Men aren't allowed inside.
Iya,
why don't you hang out
in our house for a while?
Don't go to your house yet.
I'm going to send someone to clean it up.
You can go home after that, okay?
Sure.
Win, I'm going to head over to
the development site now, all right?
Make yourself at home, kids.
-Thank you.
-Goodbye.
That was at the newspaper dress contest.
Do you remember?
We actually had a prettier dress.
But Faye was afraid the other group
would try to ruin it,
so she made this one as a decoy.
But they found out anyway.
So they sneaked in and
ruined that other dress.
But, for some reason, our decoy ended up
winning the contest.
I miss that time.
We had a lot of fun.
Yes.
Can you show me the room first?
Sure.
I'll be right back.
Come on.
Please come in!
Oh, wow, this room is pretty nice.
Wow, the lighting is amazing in here.
We can use it as a filming location,
don't you think?
Mo.
Sorry. I forgot.
So when are you going to tell your parents
that you're studying film and
not engineering?
Can we not talk about this?
Okay?
All right, I won't talk about it.
Can we talk about Iya instead, then?
What's going on between her
and the people on the island?
I've been getting weird vibes
since getting on the boat.
Ma, Iya's mom,
did something horrible on this island.
Iya's dad moved her and her mom
to live on the island
when Iya was in kindergarten
because he hoped it would
help with her mom's depression.
Everyone on the island knew
that Ma wasn't always in her right mind.
What everyone always saw was
Ma with her camera,
taking pictures around the island
while talking to herself.
But no one thought her condition
would get so bad
that she would end up
murdering three people.
It started with the first body,
Iya's dad.
The second one was our class teacher,
Ms. Toon.
And the last one
was Suea's newborn brother.
Do you understand now
why Suea's mom was so upset at the dock?
But why did Iya's mom do all that?
Nobody really knows
what the real reason was.
But the story that people keep repeating
is that she did it out of jealousy.
They say
Iya's dad had an affair with Ms. Toon.
No matter what the truth is,
it's Iya who's had to deal with
the consequences,
even though none of it was her fault.
You can take them back home.
Hi, Principal.
Hi.
You don't have to call me Principal.
But I mean it. You can take them home.
It's okay.
My mom took those pictures
for your family.
I think my mom would want you
to keep them.
My husband called and told me you're here
for some business about your house.
I guess you'll stay for a few days?
-Yes, I don't plan to stay long.
-I see.
Yes?
Okay, thanks.
The girl who went to clean your house
says it's ready now.
I'll leave you to it.
Mrs. Rassamee?
Well,
the night of the incident,
you were the person who was driving
my mom to the police, right?
Can you tell me what happened?
Why did my mom change her mind?
Did she say anything?
No, she didn't say anything.
All of a sudden, she just changed her mind
and decided not to go to the police.
I've been wondering about that
to this day.
Let's take a picture.
What were you doing? Playing with Mom?
Hey, you two.
Wow, pretty girl,
let me take your picture.
Oh, wow.
Give me a pose, a pretty pose.
Come dance with me, Mom.
Just a second. Let me put my camera down.
Why don't you teach me
how to dance, sweetie?
Mom, my teacher complimented me
on my essay.
Let me see.
You're Iya, right?
I'm Maew.
I've finished all the cleaning.
Thank you, Maew.
By the way,
while I was away,
did nobody come here at all?
Oh, no, of course not!
Everybody avoids this house
like the plague.
No one would ever come in here.
I'm so sorry.
Sometimes, I can be a little blunt.
I hope I didn't offend you.
I'm going to go wash the dishes.
Sure.
-Why did you come back?
-Why did you come back?
-You're like the plague!
-Why did you come back?
Go back and stay away!
-Go away!
-Why did you come back?
-Murderer!
-Why did you come back?
-Get out!
-Why did you come back?
-Get out!
-Why did you come back?
Iya, are you okay?
I heard you screaming so loudly.
Oh, I was cleaning the knife.
I heard you scream,
so I came up here to check on you.
I didn't even know I was carrying it.
YOK FAH HOTEL
Yok, I'll have the usual, please.
Maew, come here!
I heard the daughter of
that crazy bitch came back.
That's right.
I just went to clean up her house.
I shouldn't gossip.
Well, then don't.
Hey, just kidding.
Well, what happened was,
after she went up to her room,
all of a sudden
she just started screaming.
I ran up to go check on her
because I was worried,
-but she thought I was going to kill her.
-Okay.
There it is.
She's losing it like her mom did.
Like mother, like daughter.
That's right.
Is this any good?
Then why are you eating here?
She invited me.
SUEA: ARE YOU FREE TONIGHT?
LET'S HAVE A REUNION.

Faye, I'll talk to you later, okay?
Someone is following me.

Yes, Win?

I'll promise you this
I'll remember everything
Doesn't matter if it's good or bad
I'll keep recalling
Every memory about you

So that the last day that I breathe
I will not forget you
Thank you.
-Good job!
-What song should we do next?
Yok.
-How Far is Near?
-Let me help you.
Sure. But it's hot.
-And it smells, too.
-That's okay.
So why did you come back, Iya?
Well
I came back to deal with
selling the house.
I see.
How about we play a game?
How about quick-fire questions?
-Ready?
-Ready?
Yes.
-Black or white?
-Black.
-Ocean or mountain?
-Ocean.
-Omelet or fried egg?
-Omelet.
-Kendal Jenner or Bella Hadid?
-Bella Hadid.
-Iya or Mo?
-Iya.
Whoops!
Sorry, I forgot Iya and Win
had something going.
But that was years ago
when they were kids.
I hope no one takes it seriously.
Why are you so quick to defend yourself?
Are you afraid people might be on to you
for trying to stir things up?
Faye.
Faye!
What do you want?
Why aren't you joining them?
Do you feel awkward?
I don't care about
teenage stuff like that.
I followed you because
I have a question to ask you.
What's the question?
Do you remember the night of the incident?
The night your mom murdered those people?
Of course. It was my birthday.
And nobody showed up.
I didn't go to your party?
But you called me that night, right?
Iya, where are you?
You remember?
Do you remember
what I was doing and where I was?
Why should I know
what the hell you were doing?
You never cared about
what messed-up shit happened to me.
What happened to you, Faye?
Forget it.
Faye.
You can tell me.
I said forget it!
Hey, we're friends.
Friends?
You were gone for seven years.
You never called once.
You still call yourself a friend?
What right do you have to ask me
to tell you about this messed-up shit,
this sick, disgusting shit
that no one would wish
to happen to anyone?
You only came back
to sell your house, right?
And you'll be gone soon.
There's no need for us
to revive our dead friendship!
Faye!
-I'll drive her home.
-Drive safe, okay?
-Suea, I'm going back with you.
-Let's go.
Faye!
Are you okay, Iya?
I'm okay. Don't worry.
Win, do you remember,
that night, seven years ago,
what I was doing and where I was?
I don't know anything.
I was in Phuket
for a basketball tournament.
And Suea,
he was sick in the hospital.
But I heard people say that
when Ms. Toon's house was burning,
you and your mom went different ways.
But they didn't see where you went.
No one saw you again until morning.
You used to write in your diary every day.
Why don't you look in there?
You might find something.
That's right.
Faye, you can sleep at my house.
It's okay. I'll be fine.
What happened to you, Faye?
Where are you going, sweetie?
It's your birthday today.
But Ms. Toon's house
Forget about them.
Look at you,
my daughter,
you've grown into a beautiful young lady.
Can't I give you a hug?
I don't know how many years
we'll get to be together like this.
What are you doing, Dad?
What right do you have to ask me
to tell you about this messed-up shit,
this sick, disgusting shit
that no one would wish
to happen to anyone?
Iya, where are you?
Wait, you need to help me!

Oh, I thought you would be out late.
Everyone had other plans.
So how are your friends?
Did they tell you things about Bangkok?
Don't listen to them.
Bangkok isn't all it's cracked up to be.
Yes, Mom.
Hey. Did you go and see your friends?
Yes.
Did you see Iya too?
Yes.
Would it be possible
for me to ask you
to stop seeing that girl?
You used to write in your diary every day.
Why don't you look in there?
21/04/2012
I WOKE UP REMEMBERING NOTHING.
THIS PAPER WAS IN MY BAG WITH MY ESSAY.
He didn't do anything illegal, Mom.
"I keep thinkin
about all these vile things."
I think about how our people
have to live like pigs,
about how all these rich lands
are just sitting there, unused,
and about how one person
owns a million acres of land,
while hundreds of thousands
of good farmers are going hungry."
The 21st.
One day after the incident.
Why can't I remember anything?
A NEW MESSAGE HAS ARRIVED
TLE: WANG SAEJU, A TAXI DRIVER
FOUND SHOT DEAD IN PHUKE
-Early this evening, a body was found
-Yes.
-buried in the woods in Phuket.
-I'm going to try to bring her back.
-There was a gunshot wound in his chest.
-Goodbye.
He was a taxi driver in Phuket.
The people on the island had sent
the man that was killed to stop Iya.
So how did it turn out like that?
They have no idea either.
And you believe them?
I think that guy made a mistake,
so they killed him.
What about us?
Aren't you afraid
they'll send someone to kill us?
They won't do that.
Like hell they won't! You've seen it!
Stop making a big deal out of it!
They're giving us a chance
to bring Iya back.
She knows about everything.
She's not going to come back.
I know she won't willingly,
but it might be possible.
What are you going to do?
I think that
the person who can bring her back
is the person who sent her there.
Can you pull some strings?
Check who this license plate belongs to.
4GN 6372 BANGKOK
Hello. Did you kill that guy?
I don't know anything about that.
I just hit him and knocked him out.
How did he end up dead, then?
I sent that to you to give you a heads-up.
I just want to warn you
that being on the island
is more dangerous than you think.
Anyway,
just take it as today's biggest headline.
I have to go. My shift is about to start.
I thought I was about to get
an even bigger headline.
-Come here!
-No!
Help!
Help!
There's someone in my house!
Where is he?
-In the back!
-Let's go!
