KANG Tae-sik Crime Lab.

We solve all cases confidentially.

Please leave a message.

Ls he reliable?

Check his resume.

The past isn't important.

The present is.

He's as good as they get.

Not a bad past.

There's drama.

He was always the best.

Since his police days.

You know this goes

only one of two ways.

No middle ground.

So.

Let's get started.

TROUBLESHOOTER:

If sold, the profit would be

close to 3 trillion won.

Doubts surfaced that the bank

was sold at a giveaway price.

Prosecution announced

it is reopening the case.

The prosecution apprehended

YOON Dae-hee, a key figure.

Hey! Pull up a bit!

The investigation is moving

along rapidly.

He's cutting in. Jerk.

High ranking government

officials were bribed...

Polls showing 38% one year

before the presidential election.

Dad, Uncle Pil-ho ignored

my text again.

Uncle Lightning's real

busy these days.

Why is he so busy?

Assemblyman CHO shows

dehydration...

He starved for 7 days and lived?

They said he did.

Why'd he starve?

'Cause he was full.

Now we're moving.

Let's go!

We're not late.

Did you send my

academy tuition?

Tuition?

Why didn't you tell me?

L told you ages ago!

You should have left a note

for your busy dad.

Don't you have to prepare

for these things early?

Lt's a tragedy that

you're my dad.

Hey, hey, hey!

Make sure you have a kid

just like you later!

You'll be at the academy

after school?

Don't know.

I'm too embarrassed to go.

The teacher keeps hinting

that I haven't paid.

Hey! Quit that place!

- L never went to no academy.

- L should be a messenger?

Investigator!

Who does she take after?

Keep your phone on!

Don't know!

Ls the money in?

Yeah, I just checked.

Go to this address.

Prism Motel, Room 609.

Something's not right.

We do the tracking but

they usually come to the bust.

She says she's too nervous

to see for herself.

We're fine as long as

she wired the money.

Make sure you get some

real proof.

So they can't argue

they were just holding hands.

- That's basic for an affair.

- I'm here. Call you later!

- Not there, honey.

- Sorry.

What's this?

Bastard.

Surprised?

Who's this?

Don't you know her?

What is all this?

You should have checked

before you took the job.

You didn't used to be

so sloppy.

Who are you!

You should get out of there first.

No time to deal with witnesses,

cameras, or fingerprints.

Turn left down the corridor.

You can get to the roof.

You might make it

if you run fast.

F*** you!

- A Team, report.

- We're here, sir.

- Hey.

- Hey, you!

Stop!

- Hey, stop!

- Freeze!

Don't move!

Freeze!

Stop!

Top right there!

Come down.

Get in the car.

Why, the...

Bonchi, we're screwed.

Can you trace the client?

Hold on.

I'll call you back.

What's this?

So slow.

L see you're screwing me

but you underestimated me.

Don't piss me off!

I'm just trying to help you.

L know you didn't

kill that woman.

You help me and I'll

send the tape you saw.

How do you know that psycho?

Oh, yeah, You know him.

That's not important now.

I'll hand him over afterwards.

Ask him yourself.

How can I trust you?

You will.

Use that phone from now on.

- What are you up to?

- I'll be in touch.

Hey!

Hey!

Tell me the truth.

What is your relationship?

L mean we're just

honest people.

Hey, Jongster!

Just a minute.

Get anything?

No, they just keep saying

they're honest.

Want an honest beating?

Sorry, sir.

And the honest cops

first on the scene?

Well, I heard their story.

They were so surprised

they don't remember a thing.

And the dead woman?

Well, she's a psychiatrist. Yeah.

- Got the surveillance tape?

- Yes, sir.

Check the dead woman's lD

again just in case.

- Check the suspect's car.

- Yes, sir.

I'm just trying to help you.

L know you didn't

kill that woman.

You help me and I'll send

the tape you saw.

L need to have a meeting.

Find someone for me within 3 days.

He took my money.

This is the Central Hotel.

L got your invoice.

My boss won't pay me.

Bastard. Get my money!

L filed for divorce 2 months ago.

What's your fee for getting

money back?

You should get a receptionist

or something.

Keep the phone on at all times.

Keep the phone on at all times.

Hey, Bro. Where's Lightning?

What happened to you?

Long story. I'm screwed.

That's for sure.

Find Lightning for me.

His team's awfully busy.

- His phone's not working, is it?

- L don't know.

Everyone's looking for you.

Did you really kill someone?

L got framed.

Can't explain over the phone.

And Bro!

Could you watch Soo-jin?

Don't tell her anything.

And take her out to eat

something good.

No. L got it.

I'll call you back.

Hey!

Hold on!

Huh? Found it.

Chief! L found the vehicle.

The owner...

used to be a cop.

What?

KANG Tae-sik?

L can trace it since

it's a pay phone.

But the locations are

all over the place.

- But not out of town?

- No.

Run a check on this cell phone.

He gave me

a high frequency model.

Bastards got no scruples.

This is supposed to be untraceable.

Huh?

Lt's registered in your name.

Keep going.

They're jerking your chain.

Maybe they're getting back at you

for a big case you did?

Judging by the amount of

manpower and planning,

there's serious money involved.

Security's almost corporate level.

Cut the crap.

- The tap's on.

- Yup.

So record every call

that comes in.

You do know that

it's expensive hardware?

Hello?

Hello?

How'd you get in there?

L figured you were

up to no good.

You need to tense up.

Too much money's

a problem too, right?

This is my last warning.

Keep the phone on.

Why are you doing this?

You're a psycho, too?

The kid on the video

is the psycho.

I'm leaving the knife he used.

What do you want from me!

You crazy son-of-a-b*tch!

L think you have guests.

Go to Room 708 at World Hotel

if you wanna talk.

PARK, it's the top one.

You're getting slow.

Let's go in.

You need practice.

KANG Tae-sik Crime Lab?

Give me a break. Sh*t!

Your call cannot be completed.

1805264. KANG Tae-sik.

No, KANG.

'T' as in 'tennis'... Yes.

All right.

We're tracing his cell.

He made a call near here.

To who?

De... Detective WON Joo-bong.

He's an older detective

he used to work with.

We called him after

identifying KANG Tae-sik.

Good!

Let's get him before

he cancels his number.

Call him with Detective WON's

number.

- Let's get him.

- Yes, sir.

KANG Tae-sik...

I haven't talked to him in ages.

Keep it down over there!

Sorry.

I'm busy so you come

here if you need me.

Hey, Tae-sik.

Hi. Still no word

from Lightning?

I've been trying

but I can't get through.

His entire team is

out of reach.

Probably because they're

on the special investigation.

Remember the psycho

I put away 8 years ago?

The one who attacked

Soo-jin's mom?

Of course.

Isn't he in a mental institution?

L don't know how he got out

but he killed someone today.

I'm being framed for it.

I'll find Lightning.

You just keep in touch.
