Episode 4 really has had it with a heavy dose of alcohol. This episode adds more alcohol to the characters. Would you bother to do a drinking game of the number of times that people drink alcohol here? Trying to convince anyone of a hardly unbelievable truth wouldn't be easy as we're going to find it the hard way.
I really have to admire Jessica Lee's rather calm demeanor. She's a bitch witch but she knows how to act dignified. I can't help but think of Reiko Ayanokouji in
Janperson with how she puts up a dignified front. Rather than throw Dal Gun out of the office -- she tries to act innocent. She tries to negotiate and talk sweet with him -- something Dal Gun isn't buying! She doesn't get defensive about Dal Gun. She acts rather dignified and convincing. She knows how to play her cards like Madame M would in the movie
Naked Weapon. She makes sure that her secret of having manipulated events isn't discovered. Any good villain will put on a good front. A good example is how Louis Strack Jr. and Robert G. Durant in
Darkman look like good people when they aren't. Dick Jones in Robocop seems harmless when he's the main villain and the real power behind Boddicker's gang.
What's really with Hae Ri and wearing that black hood anyway? Did her father die at the hands of Super Science Network ahem Johnson & Mark? Does she dress up in that hood to find out secrets? Did she dress up like that in Portugal to sneak into the scenario? I have a feeling that either Lily or the upcoming assassin Shadow killed the vice president of Johnson & Mark. Though, it turns out that the death of the journalist (which a quick clean-up was done) wasn't at Jessica's orders. Jessica though acts calm but maybe just irritated that the plan was executed prematurely. Hae Ri discovers that the USB drive containing the incriminating evidence has been infected. She meets up with Tae Woong who has revealed something about "at director's orders".
This gets me irritated with how STUPID people can be in the government. At times, I just feel like I hope more Filipinos are watching Vagabond at this moment to get awakened. Head of Defense Min Sik is really that irritatingly and incorrigibly stupid. Min Sik reveals one of the biggest reasons why incompetence happens -- it's because they get paid to DO NOTHING. I guess Min Sik just wants to take his salary and go home. Hae Ri may be kind of stupid but she does have more common sense than her higher-up. If Min Sik's not a mole in NIS then maybe he's just an idiot who I wish would die as a result of his actions.
Now for a bit of Hae Ri again. Why is she so desperate for her promotion? It's already shown that after her father's death -- her family is now that stupid. She's got an unemployed brother and a very stupid mother. She's being leeched too but shouldn't she just follow Marie Kondo's advice on toxic relatives? She does later take the risk that she could get F-I-R-E-D from her job. I don't blame her for drinking more alcohol. 211 people died and nobody gives a f***? She's dedicated to her job but she's surrounded by idiots. She may be a ditz but she's dedicated to getting justice done.
What in interests me is also the dangerous car stunts here. Lily who was tasked with killing Dal Gun pretends to be a next-door neighbor. Lily kidnaps him and tries to pull out a flawless murder attack. Dal Gun is caught in the ambulance where he's unconscious but later recovers. The ambulance makes a dangerous turnaround. Dal Gun is still alive which I'd really say that it would be an act of divine intervention in real life. I mean, that turning around ambulance would have killed everyone in it if it wasn't for divine intervention! Lily escaping with her accomplice feels like that they're still given space to change their ways but they won't. It looks like Lily is an important piece that would be needed to expose the corrupt ways of Jessica.
Dal Gun does everything to expose the corruption. He's a daring young man. Even the president and prime minister commend him. He leaks out an incriminating video against the NIS Director. I wonder is the NIS Director in league with Johnson & Mark or is he just stupid? I can't wait to find out what's about to happen tomorrow!
