I killed a sh*t load of people because

I was acting like a drunk idiot again.

Hey, Gloria. Hey. Hey...

That's not what happened.

What?

Well, not the only thing happened.

I'm pretty sure that's me.

[VOICE OVER TV]

[VOICE OVER TV]

They're so freaked out by the giant robot,

so they're not paying for the dancing.

Okay.

Okay.

Had you ever been in the

park at 8 to 5 before?

I can't recall. I don't think so.

You don't think so.. You don't... come on.

Been in the park... that same one?

No. No, different one.

So,

this is gonna happen at anytime this year.

It's crazy though,

it's happening to the two of us.

The first time my monster

appeared was once you're kid?

- Yeah.

- Excuse me, more coffe?

No... no.

I'm good. Thanks.

Do you think she heard something?

I think she heard something.

Hear what?

That we're the ones destroying Seoul?

Shut up! Don't say that.

- Calm down.

- Don't.

Even if she heard you, she have no

idea what we're talking about, okay?

I just... I think we need to keep it cool.

Be careful, okay? When

people looking at us.

Those people are looking at us.

Hi, I'm the robot. She's the monster.

I'm leaving.

- I'm leaving.

- Whoa. Hey, whoa. Stop.

I'm sorry, okay? Just calm down.

What were you saying? The time about

first time your monster showed up?

Okay. What were we doing back then?

Going to school.

No, what were we doing in that exact time?

We're going to school.

8 to 5 is gonna be walking

through the bus stop.

That's right.

I don't remember walking through that park.

In fact,

that wasn't even a park when we were kids.

You know,

I remember it was like just that...

It's a construction site.

Right.

You still wanna confess?

No.

I feel terrible, but I'm... you know...

Our confessing,

that's not gonna do any good.

It's true.

Actually, there's nothing we can do.

Nothing we can do.

Yes, there is.

Boom.

Did you think it was weird?

No. No, not at all.

No, I used come here for years.

Go ahead. It's your free food.

What is it, huh?

Okay.

So, where do you want to meet later?

Oh, no. It's your night off.

You should probably get

some rest. I can do this.

You kidding? I'm not be able to sleep.

Me neither.

I guess, it was the wrong time to be funny.

One made a humorous solution

that way through sentence.

Um,

I thought it was funny at the time,

and you know it seem harmless

because it was uh...

Playing words.

Playing words is funny

because how it sounds.

They don't fired me, but...

When they started a downsize,

I was the first one to go.

Oh, you jerk. You already knew.

- Yes, I'm sorry.

- Oh...

Why don't you tell me?

Why are you letting me like...

I don't want you to think I was creepy.

I seem like a stalker.

Oh it was too late for that.

I know.

Yeah.

So,

you've been following me all these years?

Of course I have.

Somebody actually made

it out of here and...

did something special for once.

You know this place is not bad at all.

You got your friends. The bar is cool.

Yeah. That was true.

Ain't some of the girls

have their eyes on you?

Hammer ladies.

You know, I'm sorry.

I was actually this close to

getting married about 6 years ago.

- Really?

- Uh-huh.

I uh...

Ask this girl to moving with me.

You know to see how thing could work.

And her, and the baby, actually, and uh...

Well, it didn't last.

You know she... get bored real quick.

I'm sorry.

I don't blame her.

Hard not to get bored.

I mean, it's her ways but...

It's not helping.

Hell, look what happened when

things get interesting around here.

Giants attacking South Korea.

No.

I mean you.

What's that?

Siren's installed.

You know, with saying I might show up.

Way to go.

Wait, what are you doing?

What do you mean?

I thought we're gonna do this together?

No, this is my thing. He's my problem.

I'm confused why'd you ask

me to come out here then?

Whoa, I didn't...

You offered.

Can you just let me do it? Please just...

You okay?

Hold on.

Okay.

Yeah. Yeah, you're there.

Okay, it's clear.

Are you sure?

Yeah, I'm sure.

Fine, go ahead.

A message just clear.

I'm sorry. It was a mistake.

It won't happened again.

This shocking gesture has

been made by sketicism

from government and

military leaders.

Just like I thought.

If it is a good monster...

It's the good guy the whole time.

[VOICE OVER TV]

[VOICE OVER TV]

[VOICE OVER TV]

Congratulation.

I get that you don't trust the

translators on the internet.

But, your friend,

the one with the restaurant...

don't you think that he

wasjust a little blown away

when the monster wrote exactly

what you've told them to?

I asked other translators too.

- What kind of translators?

- Why does that matter?

What did you tell them they were for?

For tattoos.

Who gets a tattoo that says "I'm sorry,

it was a mistake, it won't happened again."

That's... how you... beg your wife for

forgiveness after you've cheated on her?

I don't make tattoo, I'm just...

Yeah.

I'm lost and I gotta pee.

Alright. Good.

I supposed it's not how it's turn out.

Yeah, I mean I see your point there. Yeah.

No, no, no... I got it.

- You tattooed it backwards.

- Okay. Why backwards? I don't understand.

That way, you're the only who can read it.

You're saying it to yourself.

And why are you asking

yourself for forgiveness?

For getting a tattoo?

Hi.

Hey.

- We...

- Shh...

Where do you live?

What?

What's your address?

[KNOCKING]

- Hey.

- Hi.

- Come on in.

- Thanks.

The guys still there?

Yeah, they're still there,

when I left they're still partying.

Thank you.

They uh...

They won't think it's weird?

No. Why would they?

They don't know anything about this.

Neither do I.

Do you want something to drink or...

No?

Comfy?

Oh... oh my God. I'm sorry. Did you...

Was that...

I'm... I'm sorry.

I thought with you coming over here and...

I'm kidding.

I'm so happy that you say that,

I'm just thought...

I screwed it up all again...

Okay.

Robot Taunts Business District

at the surprising turn of events,

the theory said by many has been confirmed,

the 2 creatures are not on the same side.

And the creature we first

considered the threat,

could very well be the one
