Hellbound (2021) s02e02 Episode Script

Season 2, Episode 2

Is this typical for her?
Yeah. But up until now,
the pain had been mostly manageable.
And then suddenly it spiked.
She just started screaming in agony.
I'll prescribe stronger painkillers.
We've drawn abdominal fluid
three times this month.
It might get harder to provide home care.
If you decide on
a long-term care facility,
I can write a referral.
Um Uh, right. Okay, then.
Thank you, Doctor.
- Here's your prescription, sir.
- Thanks.
- Eight, nine Here you go.
- [pharmacist] Thank you.

Hello, sir.
Yeah, um, I'm sorry.
I have to take leave from work
for a while.
I apologize.

Oh, yeah, yeah, right.

Uh-huh. Thank you, sir.

SEASON 2
[sighs]
[man 1] Yes.
We'll just bring in the daughter first.
- [woman struggling]
- [tense music playing]
[man 1] There he is! Hey!
Hey! Jin Kyunghun!
What're you doing?
Get back!
[woman struggling]
- [man 2] Get her in the car!
- [Kyunghun] Hey!
[Heejung] Let go!
[man 2] Hey! Stop him. Don't let him go.
- [Kyunghun] Bastard! [yells]
- [man 2] Grab him!
[Kyunghun yells furiously] Heejung!
- [Heejung] No! Dad!
- Heejung!
Stop resisting. Calm down.
- Hey! [yells furiously]
- Dad!
- [man 1] Mr. Jin Kyunghun.
- Let go!
You really pulled off that false identify.
It was hard to hunt you down.
- [grunting furiously]
- [Heejung] Let me go!
The committee just wants to ask
a few questions, so try and calm down.
- You're overreacting here.
- Dad!
- Hey, hurry up and get her in the car.
- Yes, sir!
[Heejung struggling]
[yelling furiously]
[man 1] Stop him, for God's sake.
Come on, grab him, all of you!
- Dad!
- No!
- Stop!
- [Heejung] Let me go!
[yells furiously]
[man 1] Quick, grab him.
[Heejung screams]
Hey, get him in the car.
- We gotta clear out.
- [horn honking repeatedly]
- Clear out, people.
- [man 3] Yes, sir.
- All right, don't you move.
- Back up!
You can't come through!
Whoa, whoa!
- [Kyunghun snarling]
- [man 3] The hell?
[suspenseful music playing]
[man 1] Shit! Hey!
Stop!
[music intensifies]
[man 4] That's Min Hyejin!

[grunting furiously]
You stay put.

[music subsides]
[panting]
Heejung, you all right? Huh?
Are you hurt at all?
- Over here.
- Heejung!
- [Heejung groaning]
- [music resumes]
[man 2] Come on.
[man groaning]
[music fades]
- [panting]
- [somber music playing]
[Kyunghun] Are you okay?
Don't worry. I'm here now.
[Heejung panting]
[exhales sharply]
[music fades]
What? Are you sure?
Yes. It was definitely Min Hyejin, sir.
She had the scar and everything.
How the hell did they find out?
Shit, I thought we weeded out
all their fucking moles already.
We're working with the government on this,
so could've been a leak on their end.
[groans] Goddamn rats everywhere.
For the time being,
don't tell anyone, not even our own.
- Keep your mouth shut, got it?
- Yes, sir.
I want a list of everyone
who knows about this. Understood?
[man 1] Yes, sir, right away.
Get outta here.
- [man 2] Yes, sir.
- [man 1] Sorry about this.
- [door opens]
- [sighs]
- [door closes]
- [phone beeps]
Maybe it'd be helpful to consider this
a kind of preliminary stage
while we're getting
our approval ratings up.
- Yes, ma'am, understood.
- Yeah.
[phone buzzing]
Yes, this is Lee Sugyeong.
Hello, Miss Lee. This is Kim Jeongchil.
Uh, something urgent
I need to discuss with you.
The detective has gotten away.
[sighs] Hmm.
How did this happen?
After we got everything in order
and handed it to you.
Well, it appears the Sodo people
and that skank Min Hyejin
were able to get to him
before we did. I'm sorry.
Sodo? Right.
I wasn't anticipating
your security would be this lax.
We're not sure whether the intel
leaked from our end or
In any case,
I'm glad it was Sodo who got him.
Huh?
Better them than Arrowhead, you know?
If it's Sodo, well,
they haven't even done anything
with the baby all these years,
so, even if they do get ahold
of Jung Jinsu,
what more would they do than hide him?
Anyway, if Jung Jinsu decides to make
an appearance, I'm sure he'll come to you.
You you think so?
More importantly,
this means that the Sodo people
are most likely already in the know
about Park Jungja as well.
Hmm.
I think we should move things forward.
Uh, m move things forward?
What do you mean?
Let's announce Park Jungja's resurrection
as soon as possible.
Can you do it tonight?
But we haven't even finished
the first draft of the New Will.
Don't worry about that right now.
We'll handle it later.
What's important is that we make
the news headlines before they do,
before they can spoil it.
So let's go public
with Park's resurrection.
As for the New Will,
maybe in three months?
Great, let's announce it in three months.
Does that work for you?
Yeah, good.
I'll make sure that everything runs well.
Oh, we'll put together a team to write
the New Will. Our own people can do it.
Just make sure
you prioritize the announcement.
- Yeah, understood.
- All right.
[disconnect tone]
[sighs]
[drops phone on table]
[sighs]
[man 1 sighs] Where are they?
[man 1 sighs]
[man 2] Oh, it's them.
[vehicle approaching]
[pensive music playing]
[exhales sharply]
[breathing heavily]
How long has your daughter
It's been about five years now.
After the surgery and chemo,
it seemed like
things were finally improving.
[inhales deeply]
But the cancer came back.
They say there's nothing more
they can do for her now.
[sighs]
Uh, I'll admit I've heard quite a few
stories about you.
So what exactly is it
that your people want from us anyway?
You and those guys at The New Truth.
According to our informant
we have planted in their ranks,
Ms. Park Jungja has come back to life.
[chuckles softly]
[sighs] You know what?
At this point, I'm not even surprised.
Well, mmm, Eunyul and Hayul
will be happy to hear that.
It looks like the government is
teaming up with The New Truth.
They're planning to use Ms. Park
to announce their new doctrine.
Their plan has one major risk though.
A risk? Like what? [sighs]
Would that be
the possibility of Jung Jinsu coming back?
Yes.
They're worried
that Jung Jinsu could come back to life,
and then things would get
out of their control.
So I'm assuming that you wanna know
where his demonstration took place.
Yeah, of course.
That's what it is.
You know where it was, don't you?
Would you ever be willing
to tell us where?
You must've come to resent me
over the years.
Why [sighs]
why did you keep it a secret
that Jung Jinsu received a decree
20 years ago?
Well, what if I hadn't?
What difference would it make?
Heejung has
fewer than three months to live.
I won't spend that time
destroying everything she believes in.
Please leave us alone.
But thank you for saving us.
Do you even have a plan for your daughter?
We'd be able to take care of her.
Why don't you both come with us?
I'm not gonna try to force
an answer out of you now.
You know that baby who
survived the demonstration?
Sometimes, I wonder how she's doing,
if she's all right.
She's safe in our custody.
Yes, I'm sure.
But I'm not just talking about safety.
Is she, uh,
getting the love she deserves?
Does she know about her parents?
Have you made sure she knows that
her mother and father loved her
more than anything?
It was the orphanage.
The orphanage where Jung Jinsu grew up,
on the second floor.
The room at the end of the hall.
But promise me one thing.
[sighs]
Jung Jinsu's demonstration
make sure Heejung
never finds out he went through it.
I know it's your job
to tell people the truth.
But it's my job to hide it.
All right, okay. Easy, easy. Here.
There you go. Good.
Time to get going?
[man 2] Let's go.
[man 4] Let's go.
[engine starts]
Good work today. I'll be in touch.
[stirring music playing]
THE ARROWHEAD SHALL MAKE NEW HISTORY
KARAOKE BAR
DO NOT SEEK PLEASURE
[music fades]
[distant phone ringing]
- You're back.
- Hi.
Tough one today, huh?
Heard you got the location.
Yeah,
the northern branch'll handle it now.
How's Jaehyeon been doing?
She's doing fine. Nothing unusual.
She walked to the edge
of the restricted area,
probably feeling restless.
- [woman chuckles]
- She really went that far?
Well, no one really goes there, ever since
the goddamn Arrowhead trashed it
trying to take down the pleasure industry.
[woman] "'Tell me, old man, where does
your beautiful singing voice come from?'"
[girl] "'Why, it comes from my mouth.'"
[woman] "'You're lying!"
"A voice that beautiful
couldn't come from a mouth.'"
"'Well, my boy, what I mean is"
"Suddenly, one of the goblins cried out,"
"'I have a plan.'"
"'Sell us your magic singing sack
in exchange for our treasure.'"
Aunt Hyejin.
[woman] Hmm?
When is she coming back again?
Ms. Min's getting back late,
so I will be the one
reading to you tonight, okay?
Are you tired?
It's more fun
when Aunt Hyejin reads to me.
Uh, why?
It's the same story, Jaehyeon.
Aunt Hyejin acts out all the characters
when she reads it.
Oh, really? She does?
Okay, let's see.
[clears throat]
- [aggressively] "All right, old man!"
- [gasps]
He'd be too scared to sell it
if the goblin talked like that!
[woman] Oh, sorry.
Let me try again. Sorry.
[chuckles]
She's really making Sora sweat, huh?
[man 1] She's just a normal kid.
What?
There's nothing about her
that would explain
why she survived the demonstration.
Don't be so quick to judge.
She's the only person
who's ever survived it.
Rash judgements like that
will make you blind to the truth.
- [somber music playing]
- Well, um, I'm just saying.
I'll take over for you soon.
Just let me wash up.
You really don't have to.
I'm sure you're exhausted.
[sighs]
[music fades]
[door slides]
Only our people know about this place,
so you can rest easy.
[breathing weakly]
[man exhales sharply]
Oh, and here are some meds for her,
from our doctors.
Oh, thanks.
We'll be down in the basement.
Let us know if you need anything at all.
Okay, then. Good night.
- Thank you.
- Of course.
[Heejung breathing weakly]
I
[wheezes]
I need my phone.
Oh. Um
I'll get you a new one, um, tomorrow,
so for now, try and get some rest.
[groans] No.
Dad, I need it now!
[coughing]
[wheezes] We don't know
what kind of crap The New Truth's up to.
- I gotta keep an eye on them.
- [emotional music playing]
Do you know how many people
are waiting for my statement?
[grunts, wheezes] I'm the only one
I'm the only one who left
who has a clear understanding
of what's going on!
[Heejung groans, wheezes]
So please get me a phone
or a laptop or whatever.
Please get one!
You know, I just
I just don't get it.
What do they even want you to know?
Do you have an idea?
I mean, you're the expert.
Well, it's obvious.
Now that Kim Jeongchil is
starting to lose ground,
they're trying to paint over
Chairman Jung Jinsu's memory.
Right now, they're dredging up
all the stuff that he and I said
because their objective is
to destroy his reputation.
But they'll need us
to testify against him.
Except I wouldn't have even said a word
if they had taken me.
[breathing heavily]
You can't ever tell them anything either.
Okay, Dad?
No, of course I won't say anything.
I know you and Chairman Jung
worked so hard to build this.
And it's our duty
to defend it until he comes back.
[Heejung] That's right.
Now, could you
could you tell me again
about the last time you saw each other?
Oh boy
[chuckles softly]
You're not tired of hearing it?
Come on.
Tell me.
[Kyunghun] Let's see.
So, at the time, back then, I'd almost
been beaten to death.
But Chairman Jung,
he made a video call,
and he saved my life.
But at at the time,
I actually thought he had kidnapped you.
So I was furious,
and I went looking for him.
[chuckles]
And then
there he was, in front of me.
He said, "Detective Jin.
"Heejung is the only one,
the only person I've ever met,
who understands God's will
as well as I do."
"And that is why I chose her."
"Heejung and I,
we've given humanity a whole new world."
"And now it's time for me to go."
"But when the time finally comes
for this whole world
to be enlightened once again,
I will come back."
"And by that time
I know that
Heejung's faith
will have grown even stronger."
"So for now,
I want you to enjoy this world
that Heejung and I created."
[music fades]
- [siren wailing]
- [rotor blades whirring]
[man 1] All right. We go live
in one minute. Places, everybody.
I think he needs
a little more here and here.
[uneasy music playing]
Look into the camera,
and just read from the script.
Please stick to what we've discussed, sir.
And stand up a bit straighter.
All right, you're good.
The chairman is ready now.
[man 1] Okay, we're going live.
five, four, three,
two, one.
Hello and good evening, everyone.
I'm Kim Jeongchil,
the chairman of The New Truth.
I stand before you today in order
to make a special announcement.
This is footage from the security camera
at the sacred demonstration site
where Sinner Park Jungja's
remains were kept
after her demonstration eight years ago.
Four years after the demonstration,
Sinner Park Jungja rose from the dead
at this same location.
Through intensive interviews with Park
and multiple studies concerning the case,
conducted over the last four years,
we have finally deciphered the message
that God is transmitting to us
through Park Jungja.
We, The New Truth, now declare
Park Jungja not a sinner,
but the Resurrected One.
In three months, we will announce
the new revelations of God's will
that have been bestowed upon us
through her.
We will thereby restore His sacred will,
tainted by the faithless.
Park Jungja, the Resurrected One,
will herself announce God's will
during a special appearance
at our grand revival meeting
in three months.
This forthcoming proclamation
shall be called the "New Will."
We hope the New Will
will enlighten our fellow citizens
and humanity as a whole,
fostering a clearer vision of God's will.
May it inspire further devotion to virtue
and the embodiment of righteousness
in our lives.
Lastly, details regarding
the grand revival meeting
will be provided
[laughs]
Will you listen to that?
Pretty bold of him, huh?
I guess this means we'll have to
find others who were resurrected.
The demonstration subjects
we know of are scattered all over.
- It'll be hard to track them down.
- [woman sighs] We can't just do nothing.
Huh?
[unsettling music playing]
Oh.
Hey, guys? Something's up with Jaehyeon.
[man 2] What's she doing?
What's she got there? Shit!
[tense music playing]
[exhales forcefully]
[keypad beeping]
Bae Jaehyeon, what's that in your hand?
[music subsides]
[sighs]
Where'd you get that? Huh?
I found it [breathing shakily]
w when I went walking around earlier.
- [breathing anxiously]
- [poignant music playing]
[sighs]
[sobs]
[exhales sharply]
You guys should go now.
You mind if I take a look?
Wow. What is it?
Solar Train.
"Solar Train"?
Yeah.
SOLAR TRAIN
GOING ON A BRAVE ADVENTURE!
You read me this one before. Solar Train.
There's five of them, and they're a team.
This is Happy Train.
Don't you remember?
You're right. I remember.
Yeah, Solar Train.
These guys get energy from sunlight,
don't they?
Not just sunlight though.
It's the solar energy
of love coming from the sun,
and they recharge their energy from it.
This one is Power.
This is Smarts, Thunder, and Funny.
You said Funny was your favorite train.
And then later on,
they they all become one,
and they get really, really tall.
I bet as tall as you are,
Aunt Hyejin. [laughs]
[Jaehyeon giggles]
[Jaehyeon chuckles]
[thunder rumbling]
[Hyejin sighs]
How long do we have to
keep Jaehyeon in there?
[man] What do you mean?
She's completely cut off from the world,
getting DNA and blood tests
and psych evals every month.
You can't pretend that's normal for a kid.
[man sighs]
We're trying to find something in her
that'll explain the situation.
Jaehyeon is just an ordinary child
who needs to be loved and cared for.
We can't force her
to live like this forever.
She's only five years old.
Let's not rush into anything.
"We must pursue the truth persistently,
without rushing."
That's what you always say, isn't it?
Yeah. That's only when there's
actually still a truth to pursue.
Even if she is just an ordinary child,
she's gonna grow up to be
the symbol of our organization.
[pensive music playing]
She'll become
our most powerful ideological weapon.
Not to mention that we lost six of our own
just to save her.
[man 1] It's all set.
Can you check it, please?
[man 2] All right, give me a minute.
[man 3] This equipment's usually used
for nature documentaries.
It's designed to pick up
specific sounds, lights, or motion.
We don't know
when Jung Jinsu will come back to life,
but if something happens here,
we'll know right away.
[Hyejin] But we'll need someone here 24-7
if we really wanna pin him down.
We don't know
when it's gonna happen, though, and
and we can't have too many people
knowing about it.
We'll have one person on the job.
He'll be living nearby.
One person?
He'd willingly wait a hundred years
if he had to.
[uneasy music playing]
Who is this person?
Let's just say, someone who wants
to meet Jung Jinsu more than anyone.
Oh, here he is, actually.
[unsettling music playing]
Hello, Ms. Min Hyejin. Um, uh
My name's Cheon Sehyeong.
