Kang Ji-yeong, your prediction has succeeded.

I knew it.

It's luck. It was luck.

I wasn't feeling that great,

so I knew I would lose my concentration as the game went on.

Looking at the rules,

I realized I could get the most points

by correctly predicting Zero.

When I looked at the dice,

the others had dice that were mostly high numbers.

I thought, "If I get this early on, I'll feel a lot more comfortable,"

so I went for it.

Bravo!

Son Eun-yu, your prediction has succeeded.

That's amazing.

Tinno, your prediction has failed.

Hang on, did Eun-yu get it right?

Yes, she did.

Let me return your prediction cards.

Okay.

Round 2 will now begin.

You can do it, Tinno.

Please roll your nine open dice.

-That is unbelievable. -I can't believe it myself.

That's amazing. Eun-yu's dice.

That's crazy. She has five 6s.

Please place your hidden dice in their respective towers and roll them.

With another 6, she'd have two sets of all 6s.

Please submit your prediction cards.

7high, the first player, please submit your prediction card.

This is going to take me ages. Sorry.

The prediction is going to take a long time to choose.

God, this is so difficult.

7high's dice do seem pretty hard.

To be honest, things were looking bad.

Eun-yu had rolled really good dice,

and so were Tinno's.

And I believe Ji-yeong's were good too.

I thought there was almost no chance to win a lot of points.

Good luck.

Bad luck.

Bad luck? That's a bit harsh.

Kang Ji-yeong, please submit your card.

Surely Ji-yeong won't go for Zero again.

Darn it, it's really difficult to tell what everyone will choose this round.

Son Eun-yu, please submit your prediction card.

Eun-yu will go for Max.

Yes, she has to.

She even has a Straight.

The dice came out really well again for Round 2.

So, I thought, "That's a relief,"

and went for Max again.

Tinno, please submit your card.

Okay, here I go.

What do you think Tinno will play?

If I were him…

Minimum or the next one up.

Please submit your first combination of dice.

7high will go first.

One, one, one.

These are the only good dice I have.

Just let me win one round. Please. I beg you!

7high, you're being really sus.

-Am I? -Yes, really sus.

Kang Ji-yeong, please submit your dice.

Now that Ji-yeong's been in prison for two days,

she somehow seems different.

We said they looked scary. On the second day, was it?

Now, she looks scary too.

I'm scared of her.

I guess you become scary in prison.

Yeah.

She has a Straight.

Son Eun-yu, please submit your dice.

Are you going for it?

I just have so many.

Jeez, you have so many.

Must be nice to be rich.

Tinno, please submit your dice.

-He probably went for the middle one. -I can't even guess.

He could just play his Triple 1s.

-Triple 5s. -Must be Triple 5s.

All players have now submitted their dice.

Tinno, please reveal your hidden dice.

Okay.

Here are current points.

Son Eun-yu scores six points,

Tinno three points,

7high one point,

and Kang Ji-yeong zero points.

Surely Ji-yeong isn't doing it again.

I know, right?

That's what it smells like.

-Next, Son Eun-yu will go first. -You're both suspicious.

Please submit your second combination of dice.

Tinno can see what Eun-yu plays and go with Triple 6s.

But we don't know what Tinno bet on.

That is definitely Max.

Tinno.

Hang on, what do I do about Ji-yeong?

No idea, I'll leave it up to 7high.

-Has he gone for Min? I don't think so. -I think so.

7high, please submit your dice.

-Don't do it. -Surely not. Hey.

7high.

How long did you think I would stand idly by?

There's no need for bluffing. I think they both got Triple 6s.

Kang Ji-yeong, please submit your dice.

I'm going to do that if I end up in prison block.

Don't. You'll embarrass yourself.

What the heck is that?

Jeez, she's confusing everyone.

All players have now submitted their dice.

Son Eun-yu,

7high, Kang Ji-yeong,

please reveal your hidden dice.

Let's see what you've got.

Dear me.

Good job.

Kang Ji-yeong, please reveal your hidden dice.

Ji-yeong is playing well.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Smells fishy.

Here are current points.

Son Eun-yu and 7high get 4.5 points each.

Tinno gets one point,

and Kang Ji-yeong gets zero points.

-I guess she's gone for Zero. -Exactly.

Won't somebody stop her?

But they also have to get their own points.

It's not easy to stop her since they have their own predictions to make.

Still, they can't just let her be.

-No, not again… -Ji-yeong really has nerves of steel.

-Don't get it twice in a row. -What are you talking about?

The only thing she can get now is Triple 5s.

Hey… what about that?

If she goes with that…

It's Zero. I can feel it.

It's Zero.

As the player with the most points, Son Eun-yu will go first.

The order is driving me nuts.

How do I block it?

Gosh.

It's all you.

I don't know. Well, it's your choice.

A 5 and 4? But there's nothing smaller than a 1.

Why did she do that?

If that's a 1, what a legend.

If she has a 1 but played it like that to hide it?

If it's 5, 4, 1, then Ji-yeong can't score.

Tinno, please submit your dice.

7high, please submit your dice.

He has to block her because Ji-yeong definitely went for Zero.

Let's try to read what Ji-yeong did.

Look into my eyes.

Really?

She's done it again?

You're truly amazing.

-She's gone for Zero again? -She has.

Her expression just now. It's a Zero.

I can't block her.

There's no turning back.

There's nothing I can do.

Kang Ji-yeong, please submit your dice.

Is it going to be 1, 4, 5? Ji-yeong's hands just "rat-a-tat."

What is there to think about? That's even scarier.

-See? It couldn't be Zero, dummy. -You're right.

It didn't make any sense for it to be Zero.

She's not stupid. She already got 40 points, why would she go for Zero again?

Please reveal your hidden dice.

Here are current points.

Tinno gets six points,

Ji-yeong three points,

7high and Son Eun-yu get half a point each.

Here are the player's predictions.

7high, your prediction has succeeded.

Kang Ji-yeong, your prediction has succeeded.

Son Eun-yu,

your prediction has succeeded.

-What about Tinno? -Tinno…

Tinno,

your prediction has succeeded.

That's a relief.

What the heck? When did she get 46 points?

Ji-yeong must be petrified.

She's coming for her.

She can't afford to score just a few.

Round 3 will now begin.

I hate going first.

Please roll your open dice.

Well, Eun-yu got a successful Max,

and Ji-young got a Zero,

so the two of them were quite safe with a high score.

7high and I were just four points apart,

so I went into Round 3 thinking,

"It's going to be a fight to the death with this guy."

This is the first time I've had sweaty hands at a prison match.

Really? Fingers crossed.

From one extreme to the other.

That's no good.

Ji-yeong looks good for Zero.

-Goodness me. -Seriously?

Darn.

Gosh.

What's this?

Eun-yu and Ji-yeong both can try for Zero.

7high definitely has to go for Max.

Please submit your prediction cards.

Tinno will go first.

-Seriously… -Please submit your prediction card.

If Ji-yeong and Eun-yu both have their eyes on Zero…

-Right? -…that would be super fun to watch.

I have no idea what Ji-yeong will go for.

-Seriously. This is driving me crazy. -I can't tell what she's doing.

I can't predict it.

It's not the combination you can read.

Please submit your first combination of dice.

Tinno will go first.

Hang on, what should I play?

No. Better to not go first next time.

That'll be reassuring.

The order of play is very important in Triple Dice

because ultimately,

the person who goes last slightly influences the ranking.

Kang Ji-yeong succeeded in getting Zero in the first round

partly due to the benefit of going last

in two of the three turns.

On the other hand, Tinno, who went first or second in all three turns,

must have felt very frustrated.

What's this?

-If that's a 3, it's a Straight. -Right.

7high, please block it for me.

Please.

7high, please submit your dice.

Kang Ji-yeong, please submit your dice.

-She's not going for Zero. It's Min. -Yeah, must be Minimum.

Son Eun-yu, please submit your dice.

Oh, come on! Please!

I hate it too. Why are you playing your dice like this?

What do you hate?

Going first. I don't want to go first or second. I hate being first.

She wants to go this way.

I don't really want to play this.

-You have to. -Jeez.

I have no choice.

All players have now submitted their dice.

What is it? Oh, she's gone with a Triple.

Please reveal your hidden dice.

I did whatever I could to not go first.

But now, she's going first.

And I still go second.

It was only one turn ahead.

7high, please reveal your hidden dice.

Seriously…

-Straight! -So the points are…

Son Eun-yu six points,

7high, Kang Ji-yeong two points each.

Tinno, zero points.

-Those two split. Tinno gets nothing. -No points.

This time, Son Eun-yu will go first.

I really didn't want to go first.

I was trying to lose, and I still ended up going second. Damn.

What did you predict, Tinno?

Was it Zero?

What the heck?

I didn't have the nerve to do that…

-Was it Zero? -…in my situation since I'm in last place.

-You have to act bold. -Let me just get one.

My dice are terrible this round.

You just want to get one round?

If you let me, I'd be grateful. Just one.

Just one.

Is that right?

Tinno, please submit your dice.

Now we'll find out what Tinno has.

Please just one opportunity.

-Just one opportunity. -I had no idea you'd play that.

Just once.

-7high, please submit your dice. -See? Darn it.

He must've chosen Zero.

-But the bad thing is that… -Yes?

7high will block it for sure.

Ji-yeong can, too.

You're right.

There's no way it'll work. What can he do?

Tinno went for Zero.

Do you think Tinno's bluffing or went for Minimum?

-It could be Minimum. -Yeah?

Because he has Triple 4s.

Hang on. There's a lot riding on this, so I'll take my time.

So the point gap is very small.

I think that's it.

So I'll just…

Do you think 7high is agonizing over whether or not to block it?

He might have chosen More. His dice are pretty good.

Okay.

I'll do it.

Nice.

Okay. I'm done. I think I got it.

Okay.

Kang Ji-yeong, please submit your dice.

Okay.

Two hidden dice?

All players have now submitted their dice.

Please reveal your hidden dice.

Son Eun-yu, please reveal your hidden dice.

It's a 5.

Did they just tie?

Kang Ji-yeong and Son Eun-yu get 4.5 points,

Tinno gets one point,

and 7high gets zero points.

If Eun-yu had gone for Max, that would've been amazing.

Why doesn't the lead-off change?

I played that thinking I would hand it over. Seriously.

Just stop winning.

Why does no one else get to go first?

This time, Son Eun-yu will go first.

Please submit your dice.

Tinno, please submit your dice.

7high.

Kang Ji-yeong, please submit your dice.

7high, please reveal your hidden dice.

Six.

Nice 6.

Good!

Good, good.

7high gets six points.

Tinno gets three,

Son Eun-yu gets one point,

and Kang Ji-yeong gets zero.

Here are the player's predictions.

7high,

your prediction has succeeded.

Did 7high predict correctly?

Kang Ji-yeong, your prediction has succeeded.

-What the heck? Everyone's correct. -And Eun-yu?

Son Eun-yu,

your prediction has failed.

Tinno…

Tinno, please be Min.

Tinno, your prediction has failed.

Come on! Seriously.

He predicted Zero?

I consider Tinno to be the de facto leader of the living area's team.

Despite that, I couldn't afford to lose that round,

so I had to ding him a bit.

At the start of the round,

I thought this might be the round where Tinno went all out for victory.

So I thought I had to counter every move he made during Round 3

in order to widen the point gap between us.

And when he played the 2, 4, and a hidden number,

I was certain that he was going for Zero.

I really hoped your hand wasn't going for that 2.

-That's why I agonized over it. -You did great.

Oh, Tinno.

If you think about it, 7high blocked everything Tinno did.

Good!

-The game's not over yet. -Exactly.

Round 4 will now begin.

-All Tinno can do is go for Zero, right? -Right.

And they just have to stop him once from getting it.

-They'll gang up on him. -I know.

Please roll your nine open dice.

Will the heavens forsake me?

Good luck takes skill too!

Okay.

What an iffy set.

-He has two 4s. -1, 3 and 4…

Well, it's not impossible. But the others won't just stand idly by.

Of course they wouldn't.

There's a 1, 2, and 4 on that side too.

All three have something to block with.

Please roll your hidden dice inside the towers.

I think it's worth going for Max. If he has a hidden 4 and 5.

So if he goes for Max with 4 and 5,

then 12 points, which makes 24…

If he can overtake 7high, can't he make it?

Please submit your prediction cards.

7high, the first player, please submit your card.

An 8-point difference…

If I want to prevent that gap…

Gotta pray.

When calculated, it was an 8-point gap.

In the case he succeeded in doubling his points,

I had to consider a strategy

where Tinno could accumulate as many points as possible,

while I still had the dice to keep him from getting Zero.

What can I do? He's got the point.

Kang Ji-yeong, please submit your prediction card.

Don't you think Ji-yeong could go for Max?

Hey, there's a fight for first.

Jeez.

There are two matches going on, one for first and one for last.

Ji-yeong's dice were so strong.

When we threw the dice for Round 4, all I saw was Ji-yeong's.

Son Eun-yu, please submit your prediction card.

The air of the match is different.

Tinno, please submit your card.

Tinno must be agonizing over this since it's the last round.

Why did his dice have to be so bad?

Three Doubles.

Please submit your first combination of dice.

7high, the first player, please submit your dice.

Triple 4s?

Maybe he just played Double 4s

but is luring them to play Triple 5s.

Could be.

Kang Ji-yeong, please submit your dice.

Everyone's playing hidden dice from the get-go.

Son Eun-yu, please submit your dice.

It's driving me nuts.

It sure does.

Okay.

Next, Tinno. Please submit your dice.

Whichever way I did the math,

even with Max and six points on all three turns, I'd have 18 in total.

As long as 7high got six points, he would have beaten me.

Tinno, please submit your card.

I had no choice but to go for Zero,

and I'm sure everyone else knew that.

But luckily for me,

I was going last.

Going last, I had to make it look like I was playing a strong combination.

Eun-yu played 3, 5, and a hidden die.

The highest dice combo I could play was 3, 5, and 6.

I had to play that

or get rid of 1 or 2, which was a part of the best combination that I had.

But if I did that, I would be screwed on the next turn.

You're doing well.

Okay, then…

All players have now submitted their dice.

Please reveal your hidden dice.

Let's see.

What do we have?

I could not predict that.

That was unexpected. Look at that.

That's what I'm talking about!

Let's go.

Son Eun-yu, please reveal your hidden dice.

Here are the current points.

Kang Ji-yeong gets six points,

7high gets three points.

Son Eun-yu gets one point,

and Tinno gets zero points.

Please submit your second combination of dice.

Kang Ji-yeong will go first.

Is she trying to block?

No, she isn't.

She must want to use those 4s to get six points.

Then is that a 4?

-No, she has a 5. -It must be a 5.

Son Eun-yu, please submit your dice.

Why are you looking at me like that?

If I played 1, 2, and 4,

that would confirm Tinno's departure.

Though I thought it was right to get rid of him,

it was really tough when I realized he'd get eliminated by me.

Block it or not?

Let's play just one more turn.

Tinno, please submit your dice.

Can I change my dice?

You can't change.

Your turn is over already.

I really made a mistake at that point.

I should have just played a Double,

but my dice were so bad that I thought I'd get second place.

So I thought, "Oh, if I'm going to get second place, I'll just bet Zero."

But in the first round, I got one point,

and my Zero was gone.

So my new strategy was…

The number of turns was fixed, so I'll prevent his Zero in the next turn.

On this turn, I wanted points so that I could go first on the next turn.

So I used my 4 in a Straight to get as many points as possible.

I was contemplating how to play my 4 in the next turn,

but it was gone.

This is driving me mad.

Wow, I can't believe it's come down to the two of them.

I checked the other players' dice first

because I didn't have the dice to block him on my own.

I checked Ji-yeong and Eun-yu's dice, and they both had 1, 2, and 4.

So I thought, "Oh, they're bound to realize and block him,"

but they didn't keep him in check, so I was actually quite flabbergasted.

7high, please submit your dice.

GG.

All players have now submitted their dice.

He wins if it's a 1.

Please reveal your hidden dice.

Good.

Very good.

Here are the current points.

Son Eun-yu scores six points,

Kang Ji-yeong three points,

Tinno one point,

and 7high zero points.

My dice were all so high. There was nothing I could do.

If only there was a one in that cup, then Tinno would be back here.

Still, I'm glad it was you that dealt the coup de grâce.

I liked him the most here.

My match with him was very meaningful

because I considered him to be the best at these games.

And I was able to win the match against him,

so that's why it was pretty meaningful to me.

Son Eun-yu, please submit your dice.

Tinno.

7high.

Kang Ji-yeong.

All players have now submitted their dice.

Please reveal your hidden dice.

Kang Ji-yeong gets six points,

7high gets three points.

Good job.

Son Eun-yu gets one point,

and Tinno gets zero points.

Good job, 7high.

Here are the player's predictions.

7high, your prediction has succeeded.

Nice.

Kang Ji-yeong, your prediction has failed.

Son Eun-yu, your prediction has failed.

Tinno, your prediction has failed.

That concludes the game.

Here are the results of the game.

Really well played.

The player with the highest points,

Kang Ji-yeong will be awarded one Piece.

Nice.

Ms. Kang Ji-yeong, here is your Piece.

The player with the lowest points,

Tinno becomes the seventh player eliminated from The Devil's Plan.

Well played.

Tinno, please leave this place immediately.

Thank you.

Can I get a hug?

Eun-yu, it was nice to get to play with you like this.

-Ji-yeong. -Thank you.

-Get me a vitamin next time. -Okay.

-As for us, you know. Next time. -I know.

See you again.

God, I hate this.

We're losing people one by one.

I feel like it's my fault.

Why would you say that?

Because Hyun-joon asked me.

We're all in it together.

Oh! I should have given…

-No, no. -I…

It's okay.

-Okay. I'm outta here! -Rules are rules.

-Thank you. -See you soon!

-Well done. -Get home safely.

My time at The Devil's Plan was truly a blessed time for me.

Because for a board gamer,

it's such a joy to be forced to play games like this.

It was like a dream.

I wanted to go all the way and play more games,

so I regret not being able to play with some of the other guys.

I really hope that either Kyuhyun, 7high, or So-hui

will make it to the final and emerge as the winner.

Take care.

THE DEVIL'S PLAN DEATH ROOM

That concludes the prison match.

All players, please return to the living space.

Thank you.

-Bye. -Thank you.

I'm so sorry, 7high.

Why are you apologizing?

Anyone could make a mistake while focusing on their own game.

I just felt a little stressed because of the situation I was in.

I am so sorry.

Don't be. Why do you keep apologizing?

I set the game up, and I could have ended it myself.

No. It's okay.

Anyone can make a mistake.

Still, I'm really…

-The results weren't bad. We're alive. -You were so reliable. Thank you.

-Thank you. -I'm so sorry.

Why apologize to me? You were playing your own game.

It's not that. At the end, I made that mistake--

Not at all. Don't worry about it.

Now those guys in the living area will definitely be on edge.

They've now seen two of their guys come here and get eliminated.

I think this is the time we have to show our strength.

You think you can send Tinno here like he's on a prison jaunt?

Fine, come bring it.

Well, to be honest, if it was anyone else, I wouldn't be feeling like this.

Kyuhyun, what are you up to?

Just thinking.

Do you want to be alone?

No, just taking a moment.

You know, So-hui can sleep standing up? So-hui's sleep method.

Everyone, please leave my room.

He's being cute right now. Our cat.

As long as you maintain your balance, this is quite comfortable.

Yes, it is.

We don't have much time. We might all be in prison tomorrow.

Right.

That's right.

-Are you leaving because of us? -Let's go, Kyuhyun.

It feels quite lonely because there's no one talking.

-We need to start talking loudly. -Right.

It has to be somewhat rowdy in here.

Normally when you're home alone, you don't feel lonely, right?

But being in here, when someone like that leaves,

you really feel lonely all of a sudden.

I normally don't feel like that, but now I'm all, "What is this?"

Why are you following me?

-Shall we do ten laps around here? -Shall we?

Why are you following me around?

Gosh, honestly…

How fun.

I should go wash up.

He's running away.

My goodness.

-Oh, the lights. -You get surprised every time.

Yes, every time. I'm always like this.

On the one hand,

since I know what kind of message we've sent to the guys in the living area…

Honestly, we got rid of their leader.

We've deposed their leader

who was in the middle controlling everything.

When you lose your leader,

your teamwork can break causing you to get anxious,

and there is a higher chance to make mistakes.

So we need to take advantage of that.

We finally have an opportunity, for the first time.

We'd better get a good night's rest tonight.

Let's sleep early today.

We didn't get much sleep last night.

Sounds good.

Well played today. Good job, everyone.

Today's game was the kind of game that I really suck at,

so I think whatever we play tomorrow, it's bound to be better than today.

I feel a bit upset, for some reason.

Like I betrayed him in some way.

Betrayed how? You didn't betray him.

I know we were just playing the game, but given the way things turned out,

I think we were a bit crappy.

We found a way to survive that maybe wasn't the most honorable.

A way with a higher chance.

To be honest, So-hui,

you just did what Tinno and I told you to do.

That was my choice.

It's just that the timing was right, so I agreed.

In any case, even if it wasn't the four of us,

anyone would've ended up like this.

That's the way I see it.

We need to break the curse of the prison.

Yeah.

We've been drinking for a while, but it's only past 1 a.m.

Sleep well.

-Okay, sleep well. -Okay.

Every morning I would go to the gym,

and he would greet me brightly by asking, "Did you sleep well?"

And he was always trying to keep our spirits up.

He always put others before himself.

Because I've seen all that, it was quite hard for me to see him go.

Thank you.

Why are you sitting there like that?

I only just got up.

Did you?

I'm scared of today's game.

I wonder what it might be.

Don't you think Eun-yu would be

lacking vitamins, protein, and essential nutrients?

Chicken rice porridge?

And peach slices.

-We have peaches today. -What?

I'm looking forward to having my peaches for dessert.

I dropped mine on the floor as soon as it came, but I still ate it.

"This I can't afford to lose!"

Don't be like that.

What was I supposed to do? They only gave us two slices.

I didn't know it was chicken porridge. I only realized after I started eating it.

I got excited and then found a big chunk of chicken.

I have a good feeling about today.

What are you talking about?

That's nonsense.

I found a huge chunk of chicken.

I have a good feeling about today.

So, do you want to play four against three today?

Eun-yu, you do what you want.

Just let each other know.

I said this last time too, but they didn't keep to it.

I don't mean to break our alliance.

-You want to bring someone over? -Yes.

Who do you have in mind?

We need to see what the game is,

but rather than who we want to have on our team,

if we consider who we could realistically bring over…

Either Kyuhyun or So-hui.

What reason can we give to convince Kyuhyun or So-hui to join us?

"What are you getting by working with them?"

"Look what happened to Tinno."

Wait, do they have different relations to Hyun-gyu?

How do they all fit together?

Tell me about the politics there.

Okay, let's go through the politics.

What happened was, do you remember the second game?

During the second game,

Ji-yeong got three Pieces and I got one,

-so we were in the living area. -Okay.

From the point of view of those with four Pieces,

they were helping those with one Piece,

namely me and Ji-yeong.

But Hyun-gyu said he was opposed to that.

-Hyun-gyu didn't like that? -Yeah.

Are you pushing her?

If you tell me to. I was just talking with Kyuhyun.

Of course, I don't want to get blood on my hands.

If you don't, she'll win.

Right, but we'll see.

Kyuhyun, from now on, let's not make teams like this.

Even at the start, I was never on the same side as Mr. Poker.

As we were playing, he realized there was nothing in it for him.

So we talked on the second day.

DAY 2 AFTER THE UNKNOWN MATCH

We're talking and sharing things,

but in fact, Hyun-gyu doesn't feel like he's in a proper alliance with you.

He's not certain about it.

Anyhow, we just formed a team like this while living here together,

but I'm not sure how tightknit it is.

Plus you two didn't talk much.

It doesn't matter to me. And I already knew.

So, we wanted to make a new alliance from the third day.

Tomorrow, I think it would be better for us to not be divided like this.

It's getting too polar. The prison versus the living area.

I just hope we can avoid this sort of vibe.

So, okay, fine.

That's what was agreed,

but as soon as the game started…

Hyun-joon's ten Pieces.

He came with ten Pieces.

And suddenly the two were together.

But in truth, a lot of things had changed overnight

because the two are potential winners.

They both have a real advantage when it comes to victory.

And in any case, from our perspective,

he was one of the prison gang, but suddenly,

he made an alliance with our main guys.

So that's why I was like…

So, you… right. Oh.

So that's when I started thinking,

"Oh, even Tinno and So-hui are on that side."

The way I saw it, they were just using them.

So we have the choice. Six with you, or six with them.

But I think we have no choice but to go with them.

One of them will come out on top.

I realized that they were trying to maintain the winner's privilege

with the number of Pieces they had.

And that's how things have been so far.

What about after that?

After what?

After that, I ended up here.

Oh, right. I see.

By the way, we should sort things out.

We always make the same mistakes.

No one was really keeping order.

-Tinno did a lot to keep order. -Yes.

But we all just say what we want, and I don't listen--

You!

-Darn it. -He does it his way.

From now on…

Watch it for yourself later.

Just how much you ignored me.

Hyun-gyu, did you use that shape just now? The arrow that I lent you.

This one with the basic arrow like this?

See? He doesn't listen.

Did you use that arrow earlier?

-What about this? -Hey, damn it.

Jerk.

Me? What is it? I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

You know how some people can't listen when they're studying.

-I know. -I'm that type of person.

I don't hear even if someone is speaking directly to me.

You have to tap me.

I'm scared of Ji-yeong's glare.

How about Kyuhyun?

He told me he wasn't sure if it was right.

He's been saying that since day one, and he'll be unsure to the end.

-So he isn't trustworthy? -He has no idea.

Not now. Not ever. He'll have no idea until the moment he's gone.

-Why would he? -What do you think about So-hui?

To be honest, I don't know what So-hui's really thinking.

So-hui is very passively on the aggressive.

She clearly knows her position.

She knows she's smart.

She knows she can use that and that she's still a lot of use.

So, she just sits there

and lets others take care of things without getting blood on her hands.

So we need to recognize So-hui as a legitimate threat?

In her head, So-hui may consider Hyun-gyu an enemy,

planning what to do if she ends up playing against him.

We're not even in her sights because we don't have many Pieces.

That's it. That's the sad part.

All of our Pieces combined, and we still don't outnumber any of them.

How many do we have? Seven?

It's four, two, two. That's all.

We have eight.

-What are you thinking? -Right now?

Yes, are you going to keep playing with the people here? Or…

Me?

What is your current mindset?

In any case, this will break apart at some point.

When it does, it does. Of course.

That's a given.

But until that happens,

you're thinking of sticking together and going for a resounding victory?

What I think will happen is this.

I mean, there's no guarantee we'll win,

but I think we're bound to be divided later.

I don't think it's necessarily good.

Neither is it really advantageous.

We always have to send one of us away.

Even today, one of us may end up down there while one of them comes up here.

I don't know if that'll be the case today,

but if I can get rid of someone, it'd be Hyun-joon.

I think it's important where you spend the night.

Yes, I think so too.

They've been living here from the start, and I was the only one that moved in.

So I couldn't help but feel that them-versus-me feeling,

and I still feel it to some degree.

From the first day,

I wanted to bring the prison gang here and get one of them eliminated.

But I've been very cautious about trying anything like that

because if I get rid of one of them,

the rest of them in their alliance will start targeting me.

So what I have to think about from now on

is whether I'll be able to beat those who are left if I get rid of someone.

Once I figure that out, I'll make a move.

A tectonic shift has to happen. Quickly.

I think today's game is going to be really intense.

I've got a feeling.

Kyuhyun, those feelings of yours are always right.

What I'm most worried about is, what if we have to play in teams of three?

-Oh, you're right. -Three at the most.

Right.

Then one person will just have to play separately.

Right.

But you know, I don't think today's game

will be one where having few Pieces will be a huge disadvantage.

Me too.

Realistically, I consider today's main match to be my death match.

So do I.

I think the same. All of us here are hanging by a thread.

Exactly. Hanging by a thread.

Play another prison match tonight?

-That's not an option for me anymore. -Me too.

I want my clothes back!

-I wanna go change. -How can you say that in front of me?

Hey, I'm sorry to say this, but those just feel like your clothes now.

-Oh, come on. -Yeah.

I mean, you're the only one left from the original prison members.

-Exactly. -Hyun-joon is over on the other side.

He shimmied his way out.

"Shimmied his way out"?

Except for him, you're the only one left.

Yeah, that was his lifeline.

But about those in the living area…

I mean, what I don't understand is that even after hearing about that,

-people don't seem to be wary of Hyun-gyu. -Because Hyun-gyu was fixated on it.

He put a lot of effort into opening that door.

So when he actually opened it,

no one could really oppose to him entering it.

What I mean is… I can understand that.

The outcome was a hint about the final match, right?

But if you think about it,

you'll be playing against only one in the final.

He's the worst.

So I keep thinking, "Shouldn't everyone want to get rid of Hyun-gyu first?"

But it seems like nobody…

I'm alone in wondering why no one wants to get rid of him.

Well, he is really dealing well with it politically.

Is he?

But I think people will try to keep him in check today.

-Hyun-gyu? -Yes, Hyun-gyu.

I mean, if you think about the final,

-getting rid of Hyun-gyu is only right. -He has to go!

He's the one to get rid of before the final.

That's why I was thinking it would've been great if he'd ended up here.

That's so funny.

So what I wanted to say to both of you

is that I want to get one of them to join us.

-That's what I keep saying. -So who?

Hyun-joon.

Is that possible?

-Hyun-joon? -Hyun-joon?

For me, Hyun-joon is the one person I think I could win over.

Hyun-joon is the one person who has always been consistent, at least to me.

Don't you think Hyun-joon might feel like he's joining a daycare center?

-What's that? -The 2-2-4 daycare center.

He has to work to keep us fed.

We'll convince him by saying,

"Hyun-joon, you have the most Pieces, so you're going to end up in the final."

"Do you want to end up in the final with Hyun-gyu?"

We have to tell him that working with Hyun-gyu is not so good for him.

"You're most likely going to the final."

"If you keep playing with Hyun-gyu,

you're helping him get to the final, like a pushover."

"Is that what you want?" That should be our take.

Or how about I go there and he comes here?

No, Hyun-gyu won't come. He'll never come.

-Hyun-gyu will never come here. -Never.

He will stick to the people that are most beneficial to him.

However, Kyuhyun doesn't have much leverage over there.

Out of the four of them.

-True. -So, Kyuhyun is most likely to join us.

It's great if he joined us, but I think he's dangerous.

-He might spy on us. -I don't trust him at all.

Kyuhyun might play both sides.

I don't trust him. Let me just reiterate,

he's already screwed me over twice, so I'm not inclined to trust him again.

I have no reason to trust him.

What can he do? What can he do to regain your trust?

He can't. I don't think it's possible.

It's in shambles.

I'm going to go and wash up.

It fits slightly different, even though it looks the same.

How's this outfit?

I'll give you the once-over.

Asking about the same exact attire.

-The main match will begin shortly. -I'm sure they're so determined.

All players, please gather in the game area.

-Good luck. -Good luck.

Has everyone got their Pieces?

-Yes. -Yes, I've got mine.

Do I look okay? I didn't look in the mirror.

-No, you don't look weird. Not at all. -You look fine.

-What's this? -What do we have here?

Let's see, white and black.

This one has a D and this one an A, so I guess it's "devils" and "angels."

Three colors. Each in turn.

Morning.

-Morning. -Hey.

-Can I get a protein drink too? -Thanks.

Here you are, Ji-yeong.

-Did you sleep well? -This tastes good.

-That was so cool. The Zero. -Thanks.

I bet it was tough seeing Tinno go.

It is what it is. In a game like that, it could happen to anyone.

We had to get rid of him. I did it all for you guys.

Tinno was a strong player.

Good morning.

The fifth main match of The Devil's Plan will begin now.

Tinno was eliminated in last night's prison match,

and now only seven of you remain.

Before the game begins,

here is the current Piece count of each player now.

Currently, Choi Hyun-joon has the most Pieces.

Here are the rules of today's main match.

The fifth main match of The Devil's Plan is

Balance Mancala.

Mancala?

Balance Mancala is a game

where you have to move your own and opponent's counters

to collect three types of color points evenly.

The board consists of 14 spaces in total,

12 color spaces and 2 special spaces.

The color spaces are either red, blue or green,

and they are arranged in order.

The special spaces are one angel space

and one devil space.

Before the game begins,

players shall draw lots to decide the order of play,

and each player shall be given four counters.

Once the order has been decided, beginning with whoever is going first,

players shall place their counters on the board in turn.

This process shall be repeated four times until all counters are on the board.

At this time, no more than two counters can be on any one space.

Once all counters are placed, the game shall begin.

The first player shall choose a space with one of their counters on,

pick up all the counters on that space,

and place them one by one on the next spaces in a clockwise direction.

When they place the final counter in their hand on the board,

the owner of that counter shall be

awarded points corresponding to the number of counters on that space

and to the color of that space.

For example,

player A picks up two counters from a red space containing one of his counters

and places them one each on the next two spaces.

The last counter he places belongs to player C

and is placed on a green space

that already contains three other counters.

In this case, player C is awarded four green points

by the total number of counters on the space including his own.

If the last counter is placed on one of the two special spaces,

points are awarded in the following way.

The angel space.

The owner of the counter is awarded

a number of points equal to the number of counters

on the angel space in the color of which they have least points.

The devil space.

The owner of the counter is awarded

a number of points equal to the number of counters

on the devil space in the color of which they have most points.

If more than one color is eligible to score points from a special space,

the player that moved the counter shall choose the color.

As players move their and their opponents' counters around the board,

they must endeavor to maintain balance between their scores.

If any one player reaches 30 points in any one color,

the game shall end immediately.

When the game is over,

each player's final score shall be calculated

based on their color scores.

FINAL SCORE FEWEST COLOR - (MOST COLOR - FEWEST COLOR)

The final score equals the difference of the player's highest and lowest score,

subtracted from their lowest score.

Thus, you must accrue evenly high points across all three colors

to get a high final score.

Any player with 15 points or less when the game ends

shall forfeit half of their Pieces as a penalty.

Finally, the player with the highest final score

shall take five Pieces from the player with the lowest final score.

If that player does not have five Pieces,

they will give up all their remaining Pieces.

Today's prize mission will be revealed after the end of Round 5.

Oh, my God.

Before the game begins,

players shall draw lots to determine the order of play.

I will now conduct the draw.

-The order seems to be very important. -Exactly.

The game will start in one hour.

Spend this time as you wish.

Since anyone that fails to get over 15 points

has to give up half of their Pieces,

I think I'll have to keep on my toes

even while playing as part of an alliance.

Giving up half of our Pieces is tough for us,

but it's even worse for those with more Pieces.

So I think this game provides us with a golden opportunity.

The game is called Balance Mancala,

and I hope it'll make all the players balance out.

I think this is about taking Pieces.

Exactly. There's no way to spend our Pieces.

Because you lose half, those guys don't have much to lose.

If you have three Pieces, you only lose one.

-So the more you have, the more you lose. -Right.

You lose Pieces if you get less than 15 points,

and if you finish last, you lose more Pieces, so it could be the end.

If a player's final score is 15 points or less,

they lose half of their Pieces.

Whoever finishes last will also lose an additional five Pieces.

If no players exceed 15 points,

the Pieces count will change as follows.

The results of this game will cause fluctuations in the current standings.

-If you lose half and then five more… -It's over.

I calculated it and it's big. How many Pieces do you have?

-Eight? -Eight. I'd be dead.

Exactly, this is huge.

Hyun-joon, you have 13, right? So, you'd lose 6.

-That'd put you in danger. -It's dangerous.

-We must take first place. -Right. One of us has to get it.

One of us must.

The order is important

because your moves will be determined

to some extent by where they put your counters.

So it's a game of negotiation

with the person ahead of you

and the person who follows you.

Balance Mancala

sees each player choosing one of the spaces containing one of their counters

and picking up all the counters it holds,

and placing them one at a time clockwise starting in the next spaces,

with the person whose counter is placed last getting a number of points equivalent

to the number of counters in that space in the color of that space.

The last counter you place doesn't need to be your own.

In other words, you can help or hinder other players by giving them points.

My strategy is to provoke the guys at the top

and tell them this is the only chance to send them somewhere else.

And it's best if we get that. So we say, "You make me win."

"And if you make me win, I'll take their Pieces for you."

Right, to Hyun-joon.

After that, we decide later who to take from. Okay?

Who we'll take from? Exactly.

We'll decide who to kill. Because it never works out as promised.

With nothing to lose and full of spite, we've been in prison for a long time.

So we've started to feel we have nothing to lose,

and we were starting to just let loose.

So you and I have to attack No. 3. Who is that?

Who is No. 3?

Let's find out.

But how come they already made their alliance?

Can we come in and check everyone's numbers?

-Sure. -Let's see your numbers.

Oh, I'm No. 6.

Hyun-joon, we need to do a lot of talking.

Who's No. 1?

-Hyun-gyu. -So-hui is No. 3.

-So-hui is No. 3? -Yes, No. 3.

So-hui, can we talk for a minute?

Why?

What's your objective for this game?

-My objective for this game? -Yes.

Not to lose any Pieces.

-Not to lose any Pieces? To play defense? -Yes.

Then help either me or Eun-yu win.

How?

This is the kind of game

that allows us to band together and screw whoever we want.

Then it's game over.

We can control the points.

Okay, just between us?

Yes, you help us control the points.

Give points to whoever we decide.

Then what we can do for you

is take five Pieces from whichever player you decide.

So-hui, right now, you should take five Pieces off

whichever player you want to keep at bay.

It's better for you to have more Pieces than them.

-That's true. -Right?

Okay, I think it's okay to do what you say and take five,

but we already agreed to play together today,

so I'll talk to them.

No, what you need to understand is that

you're sandwiched between us, so we have some degree of control over you.

So what I'm saying is, we can work together in peace,

or we will play as enemies.

That's what I wanted to ask you.

Of course I'd rather be at peace.

Then you can't work with them because we have to take from them.

Do you understand? Our target has to be one of these three.

Then I choose him.

-You want to attack Hyun-joon? -Hyun-joon.

-But let me talk it over with them first. -Oh, that doesn't matter.

But if you say no, then we'll have to find another strategy.

But as I said just now, if you decide to do it,

we'll be really strong.

This is the strongest.

If we do this,

we'll be even stronger.

Then let's include him.

Going one after another is much stronger.

-Include Kyuhyun? -Yes.

He's really been wanting to play with Eun-yu.

-So, you want to play like this? -Yes, that'll be better.

So what are you going to do?

Yes, we have to fall apart at some point.

Of course you do! I really don't understand.

What good is killing us? We have no power.

It's time for you to start going after each other.

If it gets to a certain point, it'll make a big difference.

From ten points…

If we do it like this…

-Yes. -…we can kill one of these two.

If we band together like this,

we can control the points however we want.

Let's do it.

If we do this, you can keep your Pieces and take others'.

You have to keep them at bay. Hey, one has a hint about how to win,

and one has, what, twelve or thirteen Pieces.

What are you going to do?

All you'll be doing is being stuck between them waiting to die.

So-hui has 11 as well.

So you have to reign them in. All the more reason to.

As long as you're not looking to keep So-hui at bay.

I need to think it over.

Okay.

I think this is the perfect time to get rid of Hyun-gyu.

-Fill me in too. -Right.

The order is bad for Hyun-gyu.

So, I went over there.

I asked So-hui,

and what she said was to include Kyuhyun as well.

The four of us together, like this.

And we can control here at the end.

Then we can definitely kill these two.

But if we go with him as well, we can control all of this.

But see here. The problem is that So-hui wants to kill him.

Not Hyun-gyu?

What do you think?

He's not wrong. He makes a lot of sense.

Yes, I think that might be better.

Because if we stick together, we'll just end up fighting each other.

-That's true. -Yes.

This is going to be fun.

Today?

What is it?

-What is it? -What do you mean?

It's not easy.

Why not?

This is not the sort of game we were expecting.

Well, I was expecting big changes today.

-I suppose. They won't stand still. -Right.

Well, we just need to play fair.

If they cause a fuss, then we stop them.

We're all under the same conditions, so isn't it a fair fight?

Honestly,

I didn't want to be on the opposing side of Hyun-gyu,

and I didn't want to feel like I was betraying him, so…

This is driving me crazy.

But Hyun-gyu also thinks similarly about us.

That's what I'm saying.

So that's the point.

Do we keep playing as good people

by staying loyal and not betraying him,

and go down in glory on the verge of the final?

Or do we turn bad and stab him in the back

to increase our chances of getting to the final?

Can we talk for a moment?

Okay.

Hyun-joon, give us a moment?

Hyun-gyu.

Are they joining hands? 7high and Kyuhyun?

-Well, then so be it. -We just have to play.

Are they forming an alliance now?

They told me to get lost.

-Did they? -Doesn't that mean they're an alliance?

I guess I'm the target. Of course.

-Because you have a lot of Pieces. -I suppose.

Come over here.

Can No. 4 and No. 6 communicate? You and me? Because we're one apart.

I think me and Kyuhyun at No. 5 will be talking a lot.

What do you want to do?

I need you to negotiate with Kyuhyun.

Well, I'm not sure about Kyuhyun. Why has he gone in there?

Is he trying to screw me over?

To be frank, what you're right about is that if we join you,

we can ensure that we stay in the living area tonight.

And the chance that one of us gets to the final increases.

Right, but in truth, Hyun-gyu really trusts us and is relying on us a lot.

So are we going to betray his trust

so one of the two of us can get to the final?

-Or… -Wait, but I--

I know what you mean.

It's not that. I think there's a flaw in that way of thinking.

Why can't you be good friends if you win?

In any case, we're playing games to decide only one winner.

Why do you keep bringing these kinds of feelings into it?

When he said those things,

I can't help but agree with him. Because…

If you're aiming to win this show, shouldn't you crush these two?

Even if we help you, two of us will go back to prison again anyway.

Even if we get some Pieces, we still might end up in prison.

If either of us gets five Pieces, then we'd have seven.

-That's still prison. -He's right.

And Hyun-gyu even has a hint about the final match.

Yes, he has some kind of advantage, but he hasn't told us what it is.

If you're here to win,

you must weaken these two now.

Otherwise, how on earth are you planning to win?

In any case, I came here thinking,

"I want to go all the way without betraying anyone,"

but now I'm thinking, "I don't want to just be seen as a good person."

I don't want people thinking I'm just a fool.

That would be disrespectful to the other players.

He's not wrong. In fact, he's exactly right.

Doing that to be safe.

I could win or at least have a chance to make it to the final,

and if I don't take it,

the people watching this show will probably think I'm a fool.

Then shall we join them?

Just wait here a second.

-Those guys… -Yes?

…keep saying, "Are you just here as a peanut gallery? Don't you want to win?"

Damn it.

What they're saying is right. It is.

You do whatever you think is right. So-hui as well.

-You know what I'm like. -Yes, I know.

So just do whatever you want.

Then can I go for it today?

Of course.

-Are you sure? -Yes, if you want to, go for it.

-Just us two will work together. -What?

Let's work together today.

I'll join you of course, because I promised you.

-I think they're ganging up on us. -What?

They're ganging up on us.

Then we're going to see how far we can take it.

Of course.

-So we're definitely in the crosshairs? -I think so.

-All right. -I think so.

We'd be idiotic if we don't do this here.

-I understand. I get it. -Right?

Okay. I feel a lot better now.

Well, I might get betrayed later,

and if I do, I've brought it upon myself, I think.

For now I'm just going to focus on winning today.

Let's do it.

-How did you leave things? -It's over. I told them.

What did you tell Hyun-joon and Hyun-gyu?

That we'll attack one of the two.

We can get both of them.

Make one finish last and the other lose half of their Pieces.

But I don't think their alliance will work well.

They have to make sure they allocate their colors properly.

So, there's no need for us to be scared.

I'm not scared, just…

Do you know what's actually more advantageous to us?

As they try and get us, we might get more points.

So we should put as many of our remaining counters as possible here,

on the angel space.

-For us to come here? -Yes. This is kind of like a potion to us.

The angel space adds the number of points equivalent

to the number of counters on it to whichever color is your lowest score,

helping to maintain a balanced score.

On the devil space,

it adds a score equivalent to the number of counters on it to your highest score,

which could ruin your scores balance.

Making use of the angel and devil spaces

is the key to this battle of unequal alliances.

If we want to cover all possibilities, we need to split up as much as possible.

We should be spread out over all 14 spaces,

Right. Because we have to get their counters.

Right.

Since we have 20,

we should put the remaining six around the devil and angel ones.

But I don't think they'll put them here.

I think they'll avoid the three spaces before the devil one.

You mean since it plays clockwise, they'll avoid this area?

And target this area, right?

At least initially.

They'll try to put them clockwise after the devil space.

First, get some points on the board.

And when we think our points are under control,

we'll keep pushing them on to the devil space.

Your time is up.

All players, please assemble in the hall.

Balance Mancala will now begin.

You will now place your counters.

Jeong Hyun-gyu, the first player, please place your counter one at a time.

I'm so curious.

I thought he might do that.

7high, please place your counter.

Yun So-hui.

Son Eun-yu.

Kyuhyun.

Choi Hyun-joon.

Kang Ji-yeong.

Jeong Hyun-gyu, please place your second counter.

Why put them all there?

I want to keep two together

-then spread them out. -Spread them out?

Choi Hyun-joon.

Jeong Hyun-gyu, please place your third counter.

Green, red, blue.

You will now place your fourth and final counter.

Jeong Hyun-gyu will go first.

He's smart.

-That's what I was thinking. -He's indeed smart.

Since the devil space is here and it's clockwise,

we thought Hyun-gyu would put them this side.

But he did something totally unexpected.

Wow, that was really smart.

Since everyone is all spread out anyway.

At first it's fine to land on the devil.

7high.

Then where don't I have covered?

I don't have any choice.

Round 1 will now begin.

Jeong Hyun-gyu will go first.

Please move the counters.

Jeong Hyun-gyu gets three blue points.

We must make him keep getting points on that color.

Whatever we do, it has to be blue.

It is now 7high's turn. Please move the counters.

So-hui is No. 3, so it's best for her to get the points.

Jeong Hyun-gyu gets four red points.

It is now Yoon So-hui's turn. Please move the counters.

Yoon So-hui gets three red points.

What? That wasn't the plan. Why didn't you move that one?

I told you to move that one.

I didn't know you meant that one.

We're still in the early stages, so it's okay.

But I set that up for you to get points, okay?

Now they can get whatever points they want.

Son Eun-yu, please move the counters.

Son Eun-yu gets three blue points.

Kyuhyun, please move the counters.

It's a pointless move.

I think it'd be better not having a lot on the angel.

Yes, I think so too. That will be better.

Kyuhyun gets one point on blue.

Choi Hyun-joon, please move the counters.

Hyun-gyu had three on blue, and we ended up giving him four on red.

Right now, Hyun-gyu will be looking to get green points.

But Hyun-gyu has no way to get green points.

Break up those four.

See. There aren't enough greens at the moment.

Okay, I'll split this one up.

Put me here.

Then I'll put you here. And I'll have this one.

Damn it.

One, two, three. He comes here. He's getting green points.

When he's No. 1?

Like that. So giving them an opportunity like that…

We can't gather a lot where Hyun-gyu and Hyun-joon are

because they can move further.

This game is fun.

I need this. I don't have any points.

It's still early.

Still, I've got to be certain.

We have to keep giving both of them blue.

Choi Hyun-joon gets four points on blue.

Kang Ji-yeong, please move the counters.

Yes, put them there and get some points.

Kang Ji-yeong gets four points on red.

That concludes Round 1.

Okay.

Round 2 will now begin.

Jeong Hyun-gyu, please move the counters.

Jeong Hyun-gyu gets three green points.

Nice and neat.

For now, we have to be greedy and get lots of points.

I'll try and get a lot.

But we can't give them too many points either.

-Yes, right. -It's dangerous.

Yes, so we need to do that towards the end.

7high, please move the counters.

Hey, at the beginning, we need to get points for ourselves.

Yes, right. That's what I'm thinking. Just keep tabs on them.

7high gets five green points.

Oh, you got a lot.

It is now Yoon So-hui's turn. please move the counters.

Leave them together.

Yes, I think it'll be good to put Hyun-gyu's like that.

Yoon So-hui gets six green points.

It is now Son Eun-yu's turn.

Eun-yu.

There are too many on that green one right now.

Shall I move that one?

Yes, because we can't let anyone get a lot of points in one go.

-We need to split it up. -Yes.

Really? Then…

Gosh, what a hassle just to get these two.

Gosh, it's so hard. Such tough opponents.

-Son Eun-yu gets one blue point. -Okay.

Kyuhyun, please move the counters.

-They're clearing everything. -What?

They're clearing all the spaces in front of us.

Then we can just take our time.

Okay.

-What? -Nothing.

Make sure you take care of yourself.

You'll try and end it as soon as possible, right?

-Of course. -Right.

Will you give me some points?

-What? -Will you give me some points?

What will you go for?

Well, I can't right now. You've cleared everything away.

All your counters are clustered together. Try to spread them out.

They're too easy to clear out.

-I'm going. -Yes, that's right. Okay. That's right.

Okay. I think that's the right move.

Kyuhyun gets two green points.

Choi Hyun-joon gets one blue point.

Kang Ji-yeong, please move the counters.

Kang Ji-yeong gets two blue points.

That concludes Round 2.

You and So-hui concentrate on getting yourself points.

Because I think the three of us might end up in a situation

where we have to blow things up even before reaching 15.

That would be the worst.

We need to hit and kill him. We don't have any choice.

So, when that happens, since you have a lot of Pieces,

-you two need to make a run for it. -Okay.

Just trust me and focus on going for it. We'll do the rest of the blocking.

Round 3 will now begin.

Jeong Hyun-gyu, please move the counters.

Hyun-gyu is trying to avoid getting points.

7high gets one green point.

7high, please move the counters.

7high gets seven red points.

It is now Yoon So-hui's turn. Please move the counters.

Kyuhyun gets seven red points.

It is now Son Eun-yu's turn.

-Can I just take this one here? -Yes.

Son Eun-yu gets five red points.

It is now Kyuhyun's turn.

-I need to go there. Yes. -Yes. It's better to empty that one.

I'll do it.

Put one here.

This is better, right?

Having them together.

There's not much I can do.

Let's see.

Yoon So-hui gets red one point.

Let's keep getting each other points for now, okay?

Choi Hyun-joon, please move the counters.

Choi Hyun-joon, which color points would you like for yourself?

I will choose green.

Choi Hyun-joon gets four green points.

We had no choice. We should've split it up.

It's fine.

It is now Kang Ji-yeong's turn.

Let's look at that side first.

One, two, three, four.

Three points.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

Both get three points.

-Hyun-gyu will take three points. -Isn't that okay?

Hold on. One, two, three, four.

He probably won't want red.

-How are you going to distribute them? -Over there.

-You want to get the green? -Yes, and then…

And what are you going to do with the rest?

There are too many of them.

What do you mean? There were more of you yesterday.

I mean, this isn't a great game for alliances.

How will you all manage to share the points evenly?

-I don't know either. -Exactly.

Or how about spreading these two out?

-These? -Yes, like this. One each.

-And give them three points? -We have to give three points anyway.

One, two, three, four.

But rather than spreading these out…

Split that up?

Kang Ji-yeong gets one blue point.

That concludes Round 3.

Round 4 will now begin.

Jeong Hyun-gyu.

I'm just surprised by Hyun-gyu's attitude.

The nonchalance of saying, "I can do it by myself."

So I was curious about how he was going to play.

You never know. He's definitely capable of springing a surprise.

Which, to be frank, is even scarier.

Choi Hyun-joon gets two red points.

Thank you.

It is now 7high's turn.

7high gets two blue points.

It is now Yoon So-hui's turn.

Oaky. That's not bad.

7high gets three green points.

Son Eun-yu gets four green points.

Kyuhyun gets two blue points.

It is now Choi Hyun-joon's turn.

Come here. Spread that one.

If you do that, these two will go to red.

So spread that one out. That's best.

-But if I get more blue… -You don't need to get it.

But I need to get points.

Come on, it's still early.

Also, they have too few blue points. Look at the blue.

Two people can go from green to blue.

But I'm going to go to green so they won't go for blue.

Still, I don't really want to get more blue.

-Right. Just leave him be. -I also have my own thoughts.

-Yeah, KAIST. -Hyun-joon went to KAIST as well.

But Hyun-joon is a bit timid,

not capable of making bold moves.

Hyun-joon.

If you get too many of one color at the start, you'll be a target.

It's going to be one of you two.

Hyun-gyu knows that. That's why he wants you to get more.

So play it safe and just get one green.

If you get one green, you'll be less of a target to the others.

-Okay. -So try to maintain a balance.

Since I was here, I'll put these back.

What are you going to do?

To get a green.

Are you scared?

I want to get a green first.

Well, if you're scared…

Choi Hyun-joon gets one green point.

It is now Kang Ji-yeong's turn.

Is it me?

Then Ji-yeong can get the green. Why did you do that?

Well, it didn't feel right to just keep getting blue ones.

Are you scared?

Still. They have the majority.

In fact, what I felt when Hyun-gyu objected was

that he tends to try to control the game.

He's the kind of person that tries to sway the free will of others.

Kang Ji-yeong gets five green points.

That concludes Round 4.

This is tough.

So we're waiting for our chance.

For example, Hyun-gyu makes a mistake and gets several red ones.

The moment he does, we swoop in and keep giving him reds.

So we can get rid of him once and for all.

Round 5 will now begin.

Jeong Hyun-gyu, please move the counters.

Jeong Hyun-gyu gets one red point.

It is now 7high's turn.

We don't have many blue points, right?

That's right.

No, So-hui needs to get this.

-She can go for it. -So-hui needs these.

Wait, see here.

If I get this and put this here,

we can move two like this, and she can get six.

-Right. -So we can both get points, right?

7high gets five blue points.

Yoon So-hui, it's your turn.

Yoon So-hui gets six blue points.

Six points? That's not bad.

It is now Son Eun-yu's turn.

I will take green.

-So Eun-yu gets one green point. -Okay.

It is now Kyuhyun's turn.

What I'm thinking is,

because I'm close with Hyun-gyu…

Because Hyun-gyu is handsome…

Why not say anything about 7high?

He's… he's cool.

You're stuttering an awful lot.

-How's that? -I think it's okay.

Kyuhyun gets two blue points.

Okay.

It is now Choi Hyun-joon's turn.

-Do whatever you want. -Okay.

I'll land on red.

Choi Hyun-joon gets three red points.

Three points is better than nothing.

It is now Kang Ji-yeong's turn.

God, it's over.

Kang Ji-yeong gets two blue points.

That concludes Round 5.

That was Round 5. Now the prize mission…

Here is today's prize mission.

This will be the last prize mission in The Devil's Plan.

This is the last one?

Send another player's counter to the devil space

and increase the score of their highest color by five points or more at once.

If you complete this mission five times,

100 million won will be added to the prize money.

-Is that possible? -It's not bad if we do it early on.

-I think it'll be okay. -We have to do it now.

Round 6 will now begin.

-It won't be too bad if we do it early on. -Right, because…

If someone goes in there, it's five points.

-Yes, it is. -Right. Good.

Jeong Hyun-gyu, please move the counters.

Jeong Hyun-gyu gets two blue points.

It is now 7high's turn.

7high,

which color would you like your points on?

Red, please.

7high gets three red points.

Yoon So-hui gets four red points.

It is now Son Eun-yu's turn.

Kyuhyun, you and I can do this.

I'll play this one. Then I can place them like this.

Then you play this here and put my counter in here

to complete the mission once.

7high gets one green point. It is now Kyuhyun's turn.

I'm not sure about the others, but you can send me to the devil space.

You go here and send me there.

Kyuhyun, which color points would you like for Son Eun-yu?

Do green.

I will choose green.

Son Eun-yu gets five green points.

The mission has been accomplished for the first time.

First tick in the box.

It is now Choi Hyun-joon's turn.

-Well, I will… -It would be better for you to clear this.

But if I clear it, can they just fill it up again?

But even if you move this, you only get one blue point.

That's not a good move for you to make.

-Don't do it. -Don't you want to do the prize mission?

-Yes, let's finish the mission ASAP. -The prize mission?

Because we have to collect them again. I mean, they'll be gone in one go.

Do whatever you want.

Choi Hyun-joon, which color points would you like?

Five points on green.

Choi Hyun-joon gets five green points.

Thank you.

It is now Kang Ji-yeong's turn.

Maybe we should just leave the angel. They can't get them anyway.

So leave it so we can get points?

We need to increase our points quickly.

Let's not clear the angel space.

Oh, then let's do that.

Let's just leave both ends.

We can just control it to make sure they can't even touch it.

Then they can't get that pile, and we can make the gap bigger.

Ji-yeong, you're okay to get green or get one point on blue.

I think it's okay either way for you.

Kang Ji-yeong gets three green points.

That concludes Round 6.

Round 7 will now begin.

It is now Jeong Hyun-gyu's turn.

Jeong Hyun-gyu gets four green points.

It is now 7high's turn.

7high gets one green point.

It is now Yoon So-hui's turn.

Let's think of a way to get So-hui some points.

I'm thinking of playing this one to put Kyuhyun here.

Kyuhyun here?

Yes, because he doesn't have many green points.

-Eun-yu, I think you should do it. -Oh, really?

You go get that.

And you get this. You need points.

Eun-yu can move Kyuhyun here.

How many is that? Seven, right?

It's 15 points anyway.

-To get that, you need all of that. -Okay, I will.

-You can't do it by balancing. Get these. -Okay then.

I'll just play this one then.

Yoon So-hui gets seven red points.

It is now Son Eun-yu's turn.

Gosh, that's a lot. One.

Son Eun-yu gets three red points.

It is now Kyuhyun's turn.

-Good job. Well done. Nice. -Good.

Kyuhyun gets eight green points.

It is now Choi Hyun-joon's turn.

Let's see.

You need to break this one.

If he breaks it, Hyun-joon will go to red.

Or you can take this one.

Or shall I take another six points? On green?

Because of the prize mission, isn't it better to get them now?

Give her the points.

Let's get the prize mission. Is that okay?

-Give it to her. -Yes.

I'll put it here.

Son Eun-yu gets six green points.

Thank you.

The mission has been accomplished for the second time.

-I'm taking a hit for the prize. -It is now Kang Ji-yeong's turn.

I'll put it here.

Kang Ji-yeong gets five red points.

That concludes Round 7.

Round 8 will now begin.

It is now Jeong Hyun-gyu's turn.

-He's going to clear it. -Yes.

He knows it's really disadvantageous to him.

Jeong Hyun-gyu gets one blue point.

It is now 7high's turn.

Let's see then. Hang on.

What's up with the devil space?

He won't go in of his own accord.

-It's too high. -It really is.

Hyun-joon and I are safe.

You can't move that one because this one will just get bigger.

Then Ji-yeong will die.

Think carefully.

You need to release this one.

No way. Why would we?

We have to increase points on that, no matter what.

What are we going to do?

I'm contemplating where to go and who I should give points to.

I think we should give as many points as possible.

Kyuhyun can go for that.

Get that?

How many is it? It's six. Isn't it going there?

Definitely. One person has to take the points.

Exactly. If you release that one, we get four here.

Then after that, So-hui can hit me with the devil points.

-Then there will be three here. -Right.

Then we can do this and get one more. Then we can clear the devil space.

Good, good.

Is there anyone we can use to clear it?

Hyun-joon can do it.

Yes, Hyun-joon will clear it because he won't go to the devil.

So, Hyun-joon will clear it. Let's do it.

-Look at mine. It's frustrating. -Okay. I'm doing it.

Ji-yeong, were all four of yours there?

I'll put Kyuhyun here.

Kyuhyun, why are you taking it?

Are you going to take that?

-What? -Are you going to take that?

Because it has to be someone else's counter.

One color does get really high.

Kyuhyun gets eight green points.

The mission has been accomplished for the third time.

Will it be even possible?

-Two more times? -Yes.

If we break this, we have to amass them again.

-That'll take time. -I think we need to clear this.

I think it should be cleared…

There are way too many on that space.

We plan on clearing it afterward.

It feels scary putting it here, for some reason.

7high gets nine green points.

The mission has been accomplished for the fourth time.

It is now Son Eun-yu's turn.

Since So-hui has so many, I'll put Ji-yeong's in.

Kang Ji-yeong gets ten red points.

The mission has been accomplished for the fifth time.

You have successfully completed the prize mission.

That's amazing.

100 million won has been added to the accumulated prize money,

which now stands at 380 million won.

Whoever wins The Devil's Plan…

Congratulations.

Those guys practically committed mass suicide just to get that prize money up.

How many Pieces do you have?

Thirteen.

-Why do you ask? -Let's end this.

I'm planning to end the game by destroying

Ji-yeong and 7high.

They successfully completed the prize mission,

but the scores of the alliance have gotten quite close

to the limit of 30 that ends the game.

Now this is when the real game of Balance Mancala starts.

It is now Kyuhyun's turn.

Kyuhyun, let's clear this.

-Hyun-joon might not do it. You do it. -Me? Okay, I'll do it.

We're finally breaking it. Damn.

That feels much better.

There are way too many in here.

But how will you distribute them?

-Everything rests in your hands. -I know, there are too many in here.

First, let me see where mine will go. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.

Why is it so far?

That's green. I don't want to go to green.

-Who wants to go to green? -Me.

You can give it to So-hui.

I'm doing it. There's no problem, right?

-No. -No.

Yoon So-hui gets one green point.

It is now Choi Hyun-joon's turn.

I was planning to get red on this turn.

So I think I should move this one.

-Yes, move it. I think that's right. -Yes, I think that'll be better.

Choi Hyun-joon gets two red points.

It is now Kang Ji-yeong's turn.

Then I will go with this one.

Kang Ji-yeong gets two green points.

That concludes Round 8.

Round 9 will now begin.

So, I'm going to blow things up.

Now let's see. You have 14, how many Pieces? Thirteen?

-So that would leave you with seven? -Yes.

That would leave you in first, So-hui in second,

and everyone else under five.

If we give the others points and end the game,

-that will effectively mean we win. -I know.

As long as none of them finishes first.

-All right. -But you need to calculate their points.

See if any of them are able to finish first.

Nobody.

First will be either you or me.

Hyun-joon will do it for sure.

It's to his own benefit.

Jeong Hyun-gyu, please move the counters.

Kyuhyun gets two green points.

It is now 7high's turn.

Aren't there too many gathered there?

-I'd like to clear it. -Two, four, six, eight, nine.

I'm uneasy about that. Green is too dangerous for us.

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. So it's nine?

It'll come to here.

That will work. Okay.

7high gets three red points.

Yoon So-hui gets four green points.

It is now Son Eun-yu's turn.

She gets four red points.

It is now Kyuhyun's turn.

We need to be careful about that.

They might try and give you or 7high 10 points to end the game.

-They might try to send you to prison. -You're right.

So be careful when you place his counter.

Yes, I've been thinking about that.

Kyuhyun gets three blue points.

It is now Choi Hyun-joon's turn.

Let's see.

Give 7high some green points.

Listen to me. Please.

I was thinking of doing this one.

Why?

What are you trying to achieve by doing that?

-I want to get some blue points. -Why?

Doesn't Hyun-joon have to get some blue points?

Right, his blue points are the lowest.

You want to get to 15 points?

For now.

If those guys make their move and start getting points,

we're going to lose out.

-I'll give you all the Pieces. -I'm not doing this for Pieces.

You are. You want to save your Pieces.

You don't have to give me any.

We're still in the clear.

When we're holding a knife to their neck, you can start earning points then.

I know what you're trying to say.

He was agonizing over it, but I didn't understand why.

Do you know how to do arithmetic?

-Yes. -Shall we do the math?

No, I get it. I know what you're saying.

Are you sure you used the same decimal system?

Yes.

Which benefits you more?

Then is it because you feel sorry for them?

Hyun-gyu needs to go today.

3 HOURS EARLIER

Let's get rid of someone later.

-Let's get rid of someone together. -Exactly.

I talked to Hyun-joon,

and he suggested first we should get rid of one of them.

Then what we can do for you

is take five Pieces from whichever player you decide.

Then I choose him.

But see here. The problem is that So-hui wants to kill him.

Not Hyun-gyu?

-But that's not the issue. -We can just decide that.

Let's go with whatever So-hui decides.

Or we can discuss it again at the end.

-Let's turn our crosshairs. -Right.

-Then turn and go this way. -This way.

So, we can't be in an open alliance with Hyun-joon. That's the key point.

Well, I'm not sure about Kyuhyun. Why has he gone in there?

Is he trying to screw me over?

We'll make it seem so at first, then we'll send Hyun-gyu home today.

Have you guys all agreed on that?

Yeah, we talked. We all know.

-7high too? -Yes.

Can I join you?

-Yes. -Yeah. Of course.

Four, six.

We're talking about how we should communicate.

Hyun-gyu is going to be the most dangerous person to face in the final.

It's not just that he's a really smart player,

but he has this unrevealed reward.

-Why do you ask? -Let's end this.

Hyun-gyu keeps pushing me.

What's he pushing you to do?

To end it. Like he's Thanos.

7high, Hyun-gyu wants to give you points to end the game.

I'm trying to drag things out, but I can't last long.

We can even eliminate him right here.

There's no need for him to have a go at the prison match.

So I discussed it with Eun-yu, Ji-yeong, and 7high,

and agreed to eliminate Hyun-gyu if possible.

You're so frustrating.

Just do what you want.

Yes, I'm done.

Choi Hyun-joon gets two blue points.

Eun-yu, my alliance is now over.

I'm going to show my true colors.
