Hellbound (2021) s02e04 Episode Script

So,
Chairman Jung Jinsu clearly emphasized
the importance of pursuing
justice and goodness,
in accordance with God's will.
Next slide, please.
A COMPARISON OF JUNG AND PARK
During his final interview,
he was asked an impromptu question,
and he inadvertently suggested
that God has already given us
the ability to do so.
And now the Arrowhead has seized on this.
They've been propagating it as though
it were the chairman's primary doctrine.
However, the notion that we each carry
a code of conduct all our own
ultimately amounts to the absence
of any real code.
Therefore, our current goal is
to reconcile these conflicting codes that,
they claim,
are embedded within each of our minds,
and to reclaim
the framework of God's New Will.
Once we achieve this,
the false belief that God forgives
anyone who joins the demonstration,
a belief stemming from
the baby's demonstration,
will begin to dissipate
and eventually be debunked.
- We're considering this our primary goal
- All right, now, come on!
We've already debunked it.
We've gone over this whole issue before!
What's the point
of telling them over and over again?
People just don't want to believe it!
- Hey, there's no reason to get upset.
- What?
Analyzing and dissecting things logically
is just how academics
like to approach things.
- [uneasy music playing]
- Why get all worked up over it?
[Sugyeong scoffs]
All right, anyhow,
Professor, I trust you'll come up with
a solid new doctrine soon.
You're the experts. Yeah.
Though I would like to make
a special request.
It concerns the Resurrected One.
Her statement.
The important thing is,
that the statement be
rather concise, but powerful.
Something that when you first hear it,
comes across as insightful and smart.
You think it over more and more,
and then after a while,
it gets more and more confusing.
Write something like that.
Uh [splutters]
You don't get it?
Well, that's the thing about words.
It's always the ambiguous
and somewhat confusing sayings
that sound like they make sense at first,
no matter what context they're used in.
Those are the phrases
that really have staying power.
Do not try to make people
understand you, hmm?
If they're able to understand,
they'll start analyzing you.
And when they start to analyze you,
they'll never fear or even admire you.
Do you follow?
Right, yes.
We'll be sure to do as you said.
Good. Let's continue.
- [speaker] Okay.
- [man 1] All right.
Ms. Park Yulgeum, a world-class designer
who's been overseeing our aesthetic angle,
will now give us
an update on how her work's progressing.
[unsettling music playing]
The theme of the design here
is "transcendence of human limitations."
I believe our objective is
to present the Resurrected One
as a transcendental figure,
ensuring the message
resonates not merely in the hearts
but also rings true in everyone's minds.
And to symbolize her association
with the New Truth,
I've incorporated the colors
of the deacons' robes,
and I've crafted a design in which
grandeur and aristocratic moderation
are merged into one.
And regarding her makeup,
I'm trying to evoke
the surpassing of human boundaries,
while still accentuating
her inherent facial characteristics.
With this look,
we'll be able to
effectively deliver the message
that, as we all know,
the former Sinner Park Jungja
has risen from the dead
and returned to us.

SEASON 2
MOTEL SMILE
[eerie music playing]
[man panting, groaning]
[ominous music playing]
[distant echoing screams]
[music building]
[music fades]
[keys clatter on table]
Let's eat something first.
[sighs]
So I guess we just wait around now?
I messaged them from my wife's account,
so I'm sure they'll see it.
The Arrowhead has gotten extra cautious,
ever since
Jungja's resurrection went public.
You said Pinwheel was
the Arrowhead's most influential member.
Are you sure?
He goes around recording live broadcasts.
He pretty much has complete control
over the group at this point.
[laptop keys clacking]
About being subjected to
But I still haven't told them
about your resurrection.
People don't know about
your demonstration anyway.
Looked like your eyes were bothering you,
I thought you could use those.
Thank you.
Not sure they'll work.
[laptop chimes]
- It's them.
- [tense music playing]
They're an hour away. We gotta move.
[door opens]
I gotta ask you.
So why did you pick the Arrowhead?
[sighs]
Wouldn't the New Truth
be the better option?
Neither the New Truth nor Sodo
have faith in anything at all.
All they really want
is to take advantage
of this strange phenomena
for their own gain.
This chaos,
it's all because of unchecked ideology.
And in order to really solve
all the problems it's caused,
we have to deal with
the most extreme fanatics of all,
the Arrowhead.
[Jinsu sighs]
Let's go.
[engine starts]
[brooding music playing]
[music fades]
Oh, Ms. Lee.
Oh, hi there.
Hi.
So what brings you back here today?
I have something I need to ask you.
Have a seat.
Uh [sighs]
Hmm-mm.
So I had my team analyze
all the past interviews with Park Jungja,
and they found something.
Something interesting.
Interesting?
Yes. Two years ago,
during an interview
with Vice Chairman Oh Seonghui,
all of a sudden, she mentioned a Mercedes,
just out of the blue.
And then uh, during an interview
with Advisor Jung Yongcheol,
she mentioned a silk pillow.
Well, Park Jungja's always been like that.
She brings up random things
out of the blue, unprompted.
Before I stepped in,
she never talked. Really.
"Random things"?
Right. But then, in her interview
with Vice Chairman Lee Sanggil,
she said the name "Lee Yumi," you know?
With who? Vice Chairman Lee Sanggil?
Yeah, Vice Chairman Lee Sanggil.
He actually passed away six months ago.
A stroke.
What's so interesting about that?
Well, we did a little bit of digging,
and it turns out the name of the doctor,
whom she mentioned,
who did CPR on the vice-chairman
before his death,
his name is Lee Yumi.
[ominous music playing]
[Jeongchil] Mmm.
Okay, so where wh wh
where are you going with all of this?
Just saying that Park Jungja
might not just be spewing
random gibberish after all.
Maybe she, well
she might be able to see
the very moment of other people's deaths.
Well, of course,
this is all just conjecture.
Yeah, it's really only hypothetical.
But to see if it's true,
we need to know the exact circumstances
and conditions
of the interviewers' deaths.
Because she never mentions
the time of death
or, um, other critical details like that,
it's going to be quite hard
to verify this conjecture.
Yeah, well,
I guess you're you're you're right.
Um, do you think her condition
will have any kind of effect on our plan?
Hmm.
I don't imagine it will, not too much.
But I've spent a while going through
all these records of interviews,
and I still couldn't find
any records of yours with her.
Did she ever say anything
that was kind of weird to you at all?
Chairman Kim.
Oh, well,
it's a lot of nonsense.
Can't quite recall.
[music fades]
Right. Well,
It's not like this is
particularly pressing right now,
in any case.
Ugh, I'm so tired.
I'd better get going.
How're the revival meeting plans
coming along?
Oh, well, they're going fine.
Okay. Keep up the good work.
Guess I'll see you later.
[chuckles]
You know,
I actually went to see Park Jungja
before I stopped by here.
- I was just curious.
- And?
I asked her if she could see
anything happening to me.
[chuckles]
[eerie music playing]
She said
she wasn't seeing anything though.
[chuckles]
I'll see you later, then.
No need to come down. I'll see myself out.
[Sugyeong chuckles]
[door closes]
[uneasy music playing]
[music fades]
SOLAR TRAIN
[melancholy music playing]
[phone buzzing]
Yeah?
[man] Ms. Min,
we're calling an emergency meeting.
Where are you?
I'm close. I'll be there in a minute.
[disconnect tone]
- [door buzzing]
- [lock clanks]
[unsettling music playing]
[music fades]
[lock clanks]
- Are you taking a nap, Ms. Park?
- [gasps]
Well, were you dreaming just now?
[Jungja sighs]
Listen, uh,
there's something I wanted to ask you.
Uh, when I came to talk to you before,
you started saying random words.
You remember that?
[uneasy music playing]
I see
[inhales deeply]
a bird like a phoenix.
And some colorful and beautiful scenery.
That's what I see when I look at you.
What does it mean, exactly?
I don't really know what they are.
They're kind of just feelings.
Why'd you ask?
Uh, I just couldn't recall.
[Jungja] Do you think I
can see how people are gonna die?
Huh?
I was just wondering whether
I have that kind of ability now.
Perhaps you do.
Uh
Can you also tell when it's gonna happen?
I don't know anything like that. It's all
images.
Ah.
Mmm.
So, uh
that scene you see when you look at me.
What's the general impression?
Does it seem bad?
No, it's not bad at all.
It looks
gorgeous and magnificent, actually.
Okay. Okay.
[Jungja] By the way,
when exactly are you gonna start
this new plan of yours?
Members of our committee
will give you detailed instructions soon.
They'll tell you what to do.
All you need to do
is follow our directions.
Anyway, rest up before things get busy.
[music intensifies]
- [door buzzing]
- [door opens]
[Hyejin] What's going on?
Why're we meeting?
I'm not sure.
They haven't said yet. Have a seat.
[woman 1 sighs]
We've lost Jung Jinsu.
[woman 1] Huh?
[man 1] Are you kidding me?
You said Cheon Sehyeong
was Miss Sunshine's husband. Right?
How can you be sure
he's not an Arrowhead sympathizer?
Many of our dedicated members
have family within the Arrowhead.
We vetted him thoroughly.
[man 1] Clearly,
you didn't vet him enough,
because look what's just happened!
What if he brings him
to the Arrowhead or the New Truth?
The New Truth's dominating the media
with news of Park Jungja's resurrection.
[scoffs]
And now their leader's
back from Hell? [sighs]
Don't you think we've lost control?
We can handle this, I assure you.
From what we're able to tell,
he's seeking vengeance
and punishing Jung Jinsu himself.
[ominous music playing]
[man 2 scoffs]
- [chain rattling]
- [objects clanking]
Stop there.
[unsettling music playing]
Can I help you?
I'm Cheon Sehyeong,
Miss Sunshine's husband.
I came here to meet with Mr. Pinwheel.
We need to see him.
See that bike there?
Follow it.
- Hey, let them through.
- [man 2] Open the gate.
[music intensifies]
This way.
Come on, move it.
Hey. Cut it out! Stop it.
Sheesh, come on.
CHANCE NIGHT CLUB
Hey, he's here!
[music fades]
[uneasy music playing]
So you're
Miss Sunshine's husband?
Nice to meet you. I'm Cheon Sehyeong.
Who'd you say was with you?
It's interesting.
A group of people
trying to follow God's will
gather in an area
once used for earthly desires.
What's this guy saying?
[music intensifies]
[splutters nervously]
It's true.
It's it's it's it's really you.
You're here.
[breathing anxiously]
[gasps]
It's Chairman Jung Jinsu.
Chairman Jung Jinsu. I I
[whimpers]
Chairman Jung. [sobs]
I've been waiting for you for so long.
I've been waiting for you for so long.
That fake chairman has ruined
this entire world.
I knew you'd be back to save us.
[Pinwheel sobbing]
I'm impressed by you.
It must have been hard
to keep up your faith
and continue fighting all these years.
It wasn't,
not at all.
[whimpers]
I I've waited my whole life
for this moment.
- [music subsides]
- [exhales nervously]
Uh, how is your health now? Good?
Please sit down.
We have so much to talk about.
Mr. Cheon, you wait over there.
- Wait, but
- Let's go.
We have somewhere you can wait.
[music fades]
Please wait in here.
All right.
Actually, there's something
I need to tell him.
- Uh
- [door locks]
When will he Whe when can I see him?
I have to
[doorknob rattles]
Hello?
Hello?! Please, open the door!
Open up!
- [unsettling music playing]
- Come on, open the door!
Let me out now! Let me out, you bastards!
Let me out!
- Let me out!
- He's losing it.
- [Sehyeong] Let me out!
- You two guard the door.
- Okay.
- [Sehyeong] Let me out!
Let me out! Please let me out!
[man 1] Now let's discuss our rescue plan
for Park Jungja.
You can count us out.
Our branch is out too.
You already agreed to this
during our last meeting.
Things are a little different now,
aren't they?
If our goal's to stop
the New Will's announcement,
why not blow the place up?
Why should we rescue her?!
[woman 1] I'm on board
with blowing the place up.
Given the situation,
they'd think it's the Arrowhead's fault.
We'd stop the announcement
and undermine the Arrowhead's influence
in one fell swoop.
Since when have we been
a terrorist organization?
That's exactly why we're pulling out.
Because we're not a terrorist group.
[woman 1] Mr. Kim Sungjip
and Ms. Min Hyejin.
I'm wishing you the best of luck
and a safe and nonviolent rescue.
I'll just do it alone.
That was my initial plan anyway.
No, you're the symbol of Sodo.
There's no way. I can't let you do this.
[scoffs]
Seems like I'm more burden than symbol.
No one wants anything to do with me.
[sighs]
I'll come up with a viable rescue plan.
I'll give you a call when it's done.
- [sighs]
- [disheartening music playing]
[echoing screams]
[muffled] So you know why
I picked the name Pinwheel?
Because a pinwheel has no will of its own.
It spins around, carried by the wind.
- [echoing screams continue]
- [whooshing]
I can't believe you're here, Chairman.
[in normal voice] Then again,
I knew this day would come.
[Pinwheel chuckles nervously]
To clean up the mess we're in,
we're certainly gonna need
people like you.
So what now?
Should I kick off a livestream
and tell everyone you're back?
No. I think it's best we wait a little
before announcing my resurrection.
H how come?
Before anything
I'd like to meet Park Jungja,
known as the Resurrected One.
Park Jungja?
Right. Yes, of course you do.
If anyone is gonna meet her,
it should be you.
Absolutely.
If they find out I'm back,
they'll do everything
to prevent me from meeting her.
The government and the New Truth will do
everything in their power to stop me.
- [Pinwheel] Hmm.
- I need to go there.
Alone.
And meet her in secret.
And then we'll announce the real truth,
not that false, made-up narrative
the New Truth's coercing her to tell.
So then, um,
you'll get up in front of everyone.
I mean, you're gonna get up on the stage
that they've set up
for the Resurrected One.
[intriguing music playing]
I'll be up there next to you,
Mr. Pinwheel.
[mutters in disbelief]
Oh-ho-ho! Oh-ho-ho-ho!
I I couldn't possibly go up
with you, no.
You've been protecting God's will
on my behalf this whole time.
It'd only be fair.
[wails]
[sobs]
I'm so happy to be alive right now!
[sobbing continues]
I've wanted to plunge into
the flames of purgation.
Now I can see that all of that
was leading up to this very moment.
I'll do whatever it takes
to get you there, sir.
I'm gonna make sure Park Jungja
is there on the stage with you!
[tense music playing]
[chuckles nervously] Uh
About Miss Sunshine's husband
what do we do with him?
[music intensifies]
[sighs]
Jiwon.

GRAND ASSEMBLY
FOR THE DECLARATION OF THE NEW WILL
[keypad beeps]
- [door unlocks]
- [whirring]
[music fades]
[poignant music playing]
[suspenseful music playing]
- You're heading out?
- Yes.
- Ah, please take care of Jaehyeon.
- Of course. Don't worry, I will.
Just be careful!
[car door opens]
Okay, so what's the rescue plan?
I'm gonna tell you
once we get there
and the others join us.
Take this.
I got that one for you
and this one for myself.
What are you doing?
I only need one bullet in here,
to make them believe
that the gun is fully loaded.
[gun clicks]
[sighs]
This is gonna be one hell of a day.
[engine starts]
[music fades]
[pensive music playing]
[exhales]
- [sighs]
- [door unlocks]
[exhales deeply]
We're gonna go get Park Jungja now.
[Sehyeong] So
you're gonna go get her and
and then the two of you
will try to save the world?
I'm sorry to tell you this, but
I really don't care
what happens to this world anymore.
[in disbelief] What?
I visited so many different worlds
during my time in Hell
[chuckles softly]
that I'm not even sure
if this one's real.
But then
why do you want to meet Park Jungja?
[echoing screams]
[unearthly snarling]
[echoing screams continue]
[screaming fades]
When I look in the mirror
[unsettling music playing]
I see the executors. [exhales sharply]
The ones who ripped me apart
and burned me over and over again.
In the mirror [chuckles bitterly]
I always see them chasing me.
I see them there.
It's like I'm suffocated.
How much longer can it go on like this?
Is it ever gonna end?
Park Jungja
I thought that
she might know the answer.
[breathing shakily]
Then what the hell have I been doing
this whole time?
[sobs]
[Jinsu sighs]
Do you know how you got here?
You made other people
do everything for you.
Your wife's life, her death,
avenging her.
You left it all in someone else's hands.
You even left your last chance up to me.
[splutters]
You're unable to find out anything
on your own.
[tense music playing]
- [man 1] Let him go, bastard!
- He's tricking all of you!
Jung Jinsu, he's insane!
He's a lunatic, back from Hell!
Jung Jinsu is a sinner!
Jung Jinsu is a
[sighs]
[Sehyeong grunts]
[splutters]
I hope that
your wife's there waiting for you.
[coughs]
[coughs]
Huh?
[gasps]
I get it.
I finally understand God's will.
He wants to create meaning
where there is none.
What he wants is to make everyone
start killing one another.
You know what that is?
That's Hell.
God is trying
God is trying to turn this world
into Hell!
[menacing music playing]
I get it now!
[Sehyeong laughs, grunts]
[ominous music playing]
[crowd cheering]
[crowd chanting]
[chanting continues]
[tires screech]
Many of our members are ready
and waiting outside as well.
They'll pretend to be supporting
the New Truth,
and once they get the signal,
they'll spring into action.
[tense music playing]
[man] We're seeing a huge crowd
gathered in the New Truth Square.
Even the Arrowhead, known for
their strong clashes with the New Truth,
appear to be welcoming
the Resurrected One's
announcement of the New Will.
The police are implementing
traffic control in the vicinity
to prevent any casualties
due to large crowd movement.
Emergency personnel are
on standby at the scene,
in the event of any unforeseen activity.
Park Jungja,
the Resurrected One, is almost here!
Members of the Arrowhead,
you must heed God's message!
We, the Arrowhead,
are proud to welcome Park Jungja
and the New Will!
[music fades]
Where is everyone?
[crowd chanting]
[chanting continues]
Oh, Ms. Lee, over there.
Oh.
We're collaborating with them?
What exactly is the plan h
[sighs in annoyance]
I wanna thank you
for coming all this way.
- I'm sorry.
- Ah. No, no
[breathing shakily]
I see this as my life's mission.
It's an honor to finally meet you.
Do you mind if I shake your hand?
Sure.
[woman sobs]
[sniffles]
Please,
make sure that
Park Jungja gets her children.
[poignant music playing]
[crowd chanting]
[inhales deeply]
[music fades]
[suspenseful music playing]
[man] Camera A, check. Camera B, check.
Chairman Jung, we're going live.
[man] Five. Four.
- Three. Two. One.
- [computer beeps]
All right!
All members of the Arrowhead, countrywide!
As we've mentioned before,
during today's broadcast,
we'll be exposing every single lie
that the New Truth has been feeding you,
as this broadcast is
about to change history!
We've got an amazing surprise for you all!
Everyone, pay close attention!
[crowd cheering]
[Jeongchil] Just try to relax,
and do as we practiced, okay?
All you need to do is read
the script on the prompter there.
Okay?
[man] The chairman is
taking the stage now.
[crowd cheering]
[dramatic music playing]
[cheering continues]
[cheering continues]
[breathing anxiously]
THE RESURRECTED ONE
PLEASE TEACH US GOD'S WILL

What? Speak!

- [door opens]
- [distant clamoring]
[man 1] What's that?
Let's go!
[man 2] It's the Arrowhead! Run!
[Arrowhead members yelling, screaming]
The New Truth is attempting
to promote their false doctrine
by using Park Jungja.
We are going to expose their lies
once and for all!
[anxious breathing
carried over microphone]
[crowd chanting]
- [phone beeping repeatedly]
- [gasps]

I,
Park Jungja, the Resurrected One

- Oh!
[man] What's going on?
[exhales sharply]
That's right.
Come on now

[crowd gasps]
[crowd murmuring in confusion]
[crowd screaming, yelling]
[dramatic music playing]
[snarling]
[executor growls]
[snarling]
[breathing anxiously]
So this was your plan?
Using a subject of demonstration?
All right, come on. Let's move!
[executor growls]
[crowd yelling, screaming in fear]
Hey! Hey! Get Jungja out of here!
- [man 1] Yes, sir!
- [Jeongchil] Hurry!
- [man 2] Get her inside!
- [man 3] Hurry!
[man 4] This way, sir!
