Lie To Me E2

Imagine a train track that has been perfectly laid out and everything is set to go and there is smooth sailing ahead. But unbeknownst to the passengers, some of those tracks have imperfections so the first part of the ride is a bit bumpy. Not too much that you want to complain or switch trains, but enough to feel less secure about that smooth ride you thought you were in for.  That is how I feel about this drama in a nutshell.

Lie To Me E2

—

Starts from K arriving and his staff spreading the rumor that K is secretly married – one girl faints and another girl cries over the news (guess she had a crush on her boss). they think he married secretly cuz his aunt opposed the marriage.

 K asks H :are there any rumors aboutme? H: you mean that you are married

K: you heard that too -who started this gossip?

H asks K:did you really not do it? cuz you could have without me knowing.

K denies it saying he didnt

H:i would be upset too if I had a wife I didnt know

K asks who he is supposed to be married to.

H promises to handle the matter but K stops him

—

AJ is walking along like she is drunk saying she doesnt want to work

and K gets out of his car and asks if she is his wife.

—-

they sit and talk about it and she laughs

she asks why he is acting so serious when it was a childish prank-she wonders who did it

he glares at her

AJ asks if he is looking at her like that cuz he thinks she spread the rumor.

K:cuz it’s not me

AJ: it’s not me either

he asks if she planned this from the start

K: i thought it was strange since the day you came to pay back the money

was the alcohol poisoning a pretense too?

AJ: K – i dont want to say this with my own lips cuz it’s childish but I’m successful too so why would I spread a rumor about you

he threatens to sue for defamation of character  if she doesnt settle it right away

AJ: why is marrying me a defamation of character

K: that’s not what is important

AJ:it’s important to me

she asks for proof that she did it

she accuses him of spreading the rumor and blaming it on her

her coworkers come and watch them

K says let’s meet at court and she tells him to do whatever he wants

but not to forget to bring the proof

co workers ask who K is and she says her stalker

—

K tells H that AJ accused him of spreading the rumor

H says K should have left it up to him

K tells H to find the best lawyer

—-

at JB’s law office -some lady is mad cuz the lawyer didnt get the results he promised and she hits him. H is standing with the crowd watching the crazy lady. JB asks if H needs a lawyer. H meets with JB. H confides with JB that his friend is going thru this but some crazy woman is spreading rumors that she married his friend. JB asks why the friend isnt talking to JB but H says his friend is busy. JB gives some legal advice and tells H to pay for extra 18 mins of consultation fee.

—

SR gets mad about JB not showing up to pick her up. he says he was busy and she asks what his meeting was about and he says there are things he cant tell her and they have to have some secrets. SR says there are no secrets between spouses. He insists he cant talk but she says his name in a scary threatening way and he spills about how someone spread a rumor about marrying some guy she didnt

—

K sees his whole staff looking at him so K talks loudly to H : i dont know how that false rumor could have spread -but I am going to take her to court

H says it will take some time to do it

K: then find out if anyone around that woman heard anything

she will certainly have told ppl here and there the false rumor that she married me

H asks quietly if K is thinking of going to where she works-the ministry of culture

K says of course

H says K cant do that – he cant fight with that woman

H says you cant handle matters with women loudly and forcefully

he has to do it more gently and quietly to be more effective

K says AJ is a woman who doesnt listen to words

H: if she keeps persisting she is married and you say you arent

who do you think ppl will believe

K says :of course me

but the staff shakes their heads

K: are you saying right now that you believe that woman over me?

staff nods their heads yes

H says ppl will think there is some truth to what she is saying

K orders him to listen to him and make an appt with AJ right now

K’s friend shows up and reminds K about a gathering on the weekend and not to make excuses and avoid it- and also to bring his wife. friend says he heard rumors that K got married. K starts to say it is a false rumor and is about to explain how it happened but the friend says he knows that K’s aunt was against the marriage so that is why K had to keep it quiet. the friend says K doesnt need to hide it from them and says they are on K’s side. he yells “love is forever”. K denies it again

—

K doesnt want H to talk at all in the elevator

—

AJ is going thru slides and K busts thru the door and slams her against the corner and says :this is all cuz of you.

she asks what he is doing.

K: you told everyone “HKJ is my husband”

why cant you say anything?

she says to let go and talk

K: tell the truth – you started the rumor didnt you?

she says she didnt -why do you keep doing this?

K: lie lie – I will destroy you

she asks for proof and he points to the screen

which shows the lie at the hair salon with SR and JB

AJ’s voice says : proof-i know you did it all

AJ dreamt it all and wakes up yelling and wonders if that is how the rumor spread

she says she only said she got married – not who she married.

she gets a call from K to meet

she doesnt reply

she asks herself-why did the rumor spread that i married K

K mutters to himself: how can I settle this nicely if she doesnt pick up

——

 

K calls again and again

she is in the bathroom and she keeps wondering: why did it have to be K

she wants some time to think

she worries K will come to where she works

she tries to run out and sees K coming in

she hides behind a poster/banner thing

she wonders why she is hiding-did I do something wrong

K calls up and finds out AJ stepped out. he wants to wait and asks if there is only one exit.

her coworkers call out for AJ who is still hiding but she makes them go away.

she decides to leave and takes the bannner she is hiding behind and moves it around

she imagines other options to escape but decides against all of them.

like running past him but rules it out cuz he will be faster

then the minister asks what AJ is doing here (hiding behind the banner) so she has to come out of hiding

she explains she is doing some work and how she has another idea. she asks to talk while she is walking with the minister since he is busy and passes by K

K follows her outside and watches her get in the car with the minister

K thinks she is feeling guilty

—-

minister drops her off and she thanks him for the ride.

minister approves that idea she made up

she gets mad at herself for the made up idea

she goes to her dad’s friend’s cafe-AK’s

AK sits to ask what’s wrong but when Aj starts to talk, the woman leaves saying it sound complicated and AJ mutters “she didnt even hear me out”.

when SB asks who AJ is, AK says “that rude girl”

—

AJ talks to herself

wondering why she is linked with K

even though I’m ok – why do I have to be involved with that rude jerk

SH sees her and she sees him

at the same time they point to each other and yell out –

he calls her “resignation” and she calls him “thief”

she says he is caught

he thinks it is fate

AJ: if this is fate your life isnt that great

AK asks if AJ and SH know each other

AJ says no and he says yes

AJ leaves cuz she wanted to think quietly here and now she cant

—-

AJ wonders why her day is going so bad

SH chases her outside

he keeps saying it is fate

he tells her she needs to be grateful to him for taking that resignation or she would be jobless

she says she wasnt going to turn it in anyway

he says she would have turned it in

she says even if she did she wouldnt have gotten fired

but he wants to think he saved someone

she walks away and he says to himself

if she just leaves like this it’s coincidence

but if i catch her it’s fate

he calls out her name and asks what he should do with her resignation

—

SB tells AK how SH doesnt have a place to stay

she asks why he doesnt have a home

he says he has been kicked out

she asks why and he says it’s a secret

—-

SH and AJ are eating together

AJ says the soup tastes the same and hasnt changed. he used to come here with his friend often.

AJ tells him to bring her resignation since she paid for his meal

He says he didnt know she would buy a meal just for that napkin.

she says she doesnt like her belonging being with someone she doesnt know

he says she isnt asking for his name even now

AJ: you didnt tell me already?

SH: does it mean you arent interested?

she says they are not close to call each other’s name

he tells her his name and for her to remember it even if she isnt interested

he leaves

—-

K is having a staff meeting

—

K meets with his aunt

they talk business first

something about an investor

she tells him they dont know when the investor will back out

so K is inviting him to seoul

she tells him to hold onto that investor

she tells him not to fail this project

the future of the hotel hangs on K

he asks if she is trying to make him sacred

she asks about SH

he says SH is staying with a friend

 K says he hasnt met up with his brother yet

cuz his brother will still feel uncomfortable meeting K

she says SH should still feel bad cuz he is the reason his brother’s (K’s) engagement got called off

she cant believe the two of them fought over a girl

—

K goes back to his office

he looks at a photo of him with his brother and YJ-the girl they both loved

he gets a call from AJ

she asks for them to talk quietly

he asks where she is

—

he goes to meet her by the river

she is hiding under a hoodie with sunglasses

he asks why she called him all the way out here

she asks for them to talk while on the boat

she tells him to be quiet and get on the boat first

cuz a couple nearby are taking their wedding photo

and a bunch of other ppl are there

—

she is peddling alone and he is busy cleaning the boat

getting rid of trash and pulling gum off

she wonders why the boat isnt moving

she asks him to help pedal so they can get away from ppl and talk

they go further out

she says she wanted to meet here cuz she doesnt want more rumors spread

he cant believe that’s why she made him come here

AJ: even tho it’s bothersome

there is nothing wrong in being cautious

no one i know would come to ride this

you too right?

this is the safest

K: why- you should have asked to meet in the mountains

she says she cant trust that place either cuz hiking is popular

he wants to hear her explanation/defense

but she says she didnt say she married him

he starts to get mad and remembers H warning him not to lose his temper

she says she is at some fault cuz she told a friend she was married

when that friend sort of put her in a position to want to lie

but there is no proof-it’s just her saying that is how it happened

so he asks: you said you were married but not to me

she says he is smart

another couple fight in another boat-the guy cheated

the woman falls in and AJ dives in to save her

but AJ needs help so K dives in to get her

ambulance comes and K and AJ are heroes

—-

K asks why AJ had to jump in

AJ: then should I have pretended to not know

K: right in front there were boat keepers

and her guy who wore a life vest

AJ says she just did what she had to do

K reminds her she is the one who said

there is nothing wrong with being cautious

is this being cautious?

he checks his pocket

she realizes her mistake

he doesnt have his car keys,phone, or wallet

but she has her key

so she offers him a ride

but he tells her to disappear

AJ: you wont regret? then i’ll be going

but he sees the crowd coming so he reluctantly gets in

the car is too small so he keeps squirming around

she drives him home

she says she wont take money for driving him home

she sneezes

he tells her to get out so they can continue talking

when she says she can go home and dry off

she has sunglasses and is hiding her face

she is being careful in case someone sees

but he says there is no one

she asks not even workers/housekeepers

—–

she washes up and walks around in a robe

he is already clean and changed

she asks how much this is (his home)

and he says it’s over her price range for a government official

AJ: did I say I was going to buy it

I will just catch a guy who lives in a place like this

he looks at her so she says she was kidding

he says let’s finish our talk

she says she will handle it

she says gather all the ppl who think they are married

and she will say they are not

all at once

K: is everything that simple for you

AJ:does it get settled if it’s complicated

since I started I have to end it

K :why? if it’s what you said

you didnt really do anything wrong

 so there is no reason for you to interfere and settle it like that

she says cuz she is a victim too

she says she doesnt like ppl saying she is married to him

dry cleaning brings her clothes

she goes in to change

he thinks “victim?” and smiles

she changes and leaves

AJ: see you then (at the gathering)

K tells her to take off that mask cuz ppl will be startled

but she says something about caution

she drives off

 and he repeats “victim?”

—–

AJ goes to meet her dad

her dad says he is really miserable today

he is upset cuz a friend went to jail

he says if anything happens to her he will be her lawyer

she says she isnt like his friend

they drink alcohol together

—

K goes to work

H says he was worried and asks what happened when K met AJ

K says he lost his cell phone

K says he didnt fight

he admits he might have misunderstood her/the situation

—

Park gets in the elevator with K and asks what she should do

about shooting a drama at the hotel-should she turn it down

he says go ahead and confirm it (cant hear the word clearly)

she sort of looks at him

so he says:why are you doing this too

she asks what he mean

K: I am saying this clearly

I didnt get married

P smiles and says :what does that have to do with me

he accuses her of not being his friend

but she keeps it professional and tells him not to think of her as a friend at work and tells him not to speak inforally to her

she goes back to talking about work

—

SR and her friends are still talking about AJ’s wedding

SR learns AJ’s husband is K and she is in shock

one woman says that friend who saw AJ at the hotel said it was K

that woman says they confirmed it while SR was gone to Canada

SR asks if AJ said it was K

they didnt get to talk to AJ cuz they dont know her number

but one of their other friends said she went to AJ’s wedding

one thinks AJ is funny for inviting that girl but not them

that the girl went to the wedding cuz she knew someone there

SR smiles and says they are believing a girl who lies alot

who even said she went to Brad and Angelina’s wedding

so SR doesnt believe it

they say would that girl lie like that

SR tells them to think about it

would a chaebol be crazy enough to marry AJ

the friends says SR looks at AJ in a negative way-ever since school

SR says she is seeing AJ that way cuz AJ is

did they think AJ was that impressive?

friend says AJ graduated from a better college than SR

SR says AJ was lucky her grades were bad

the girl says AJ passed her exams too

but SR says that wasnt ability but good timing

one accuses SR of being jealous

cuz if a friend did well they should congratulate her

SR gets mad and crushes a flower

SR says:chaebol marrying a  cinderella

dont just watch dramas

and live looking at reality

—

SR gets a tummy ache from being jealous that AJ is with K and that AJ is cinderella

—

SH is getting her resignation napkin and takes it out of his jacket and puts it on the table

SB runs to the bathroom

SH steps away to answer the door

SB ran out of toilet paper and comes out looking for tissue and grabs her resignation and uses it

SH is looking for it and then finds out what SB did with it

—

AJ finds out her resignation was used as toilet paper and gets mad cuz it offends her pride
she walks out and he follows apologizing and wanting to buy her a meal to make up for it but she tells SH to get lost

he finally just hugs her in front of a lot of ppl

she says let go at first but stops struggling

he lets go and asks if she feels better

she pokes him and says be is breaking the law doing this

he says it used to work a long time ago

he tells her to leave it up to him for the day –

the full course treatment (to make up for it)

but she says sorry not interested

she notices girls looking at him and then she checks him out and gets an idea

so she asks if he has time tonight

he thinks he got to her but she says dont be mistaken

just giving you a chance to make it up to me

—

she picks him up and he says she is 20 mins late

she tells him to hurry and get in

she says she was going to call she was late

how he could not carry a cell phone even tho he is jobless

he doesnt like what she has on

SH: you didnt lower my expectations

you cant help but look like a civil servant

she asks if it looks that strange

SH: since it is a party-we cant go with you looking like that

he takes her shopping for a new outfit

he doesnt like her choices

since she is going to break up with a guy that she doest care about him

he thinks she should look good

and picks out a dress that makes her look like a seductress

he picks out $2220 worth of dress and shoes

she takes out her credit card to pay for it

but she is reluctant to spend so much

he asks what’s wrong since she earns a lot

but she says “is there a government official who earns a lot

she cant walk straight cuz of the staggering cost

he says the price again and she tells him not to mention it cuz she might throw up

he says he was going to pay for it but he thought of her pride

he promises to do his part and stick to her side

and make sure ppl think she has no interest in K (only SH)

he asks where they are going

she says World hotel

he is surprised

—

K has gathereed all the ppl who believe the rumor

he keeps telling them that he didnt get married

but they keep cheering for his marriage and congratulating him

and make toasts for his secret wedding

—

AJ gets to the hotel with SH

he wont get out of the car

so she has to drag him out

he covers his face

she thinks this is his first time in a hotel

he lies and says he has other plans

and ditches her

but he decides to go in anyway

he promises to do his job well

he hides his face so she asks if he is umcomfortable being with her

he says of course cuz ppl will think he got seduced by her

—-

H is waiting by the elevator and introduces himself as K’s secretary but

SH hides and runs out the door leading to the stairs

so she tries to chase after him

JB and SR come to the hotel

he asks why they came

she is here to confirm something

she asks the front desk if K is married

P says they are not allowed to give that info

SR says she just wants to know if K has not not

JB tries to stop her

staff says lots of ppl these days ask that

P tells them to ignore it

—

JB meets H by the elevator

JB says he is here to eat and H says he is here to do that too

 JB asks about the friend in front of SR

and H says it will get settled soon

H wonders where AJ went

K calls H

H tells him she arrived but isnt here

—-

K calls AJ to hurry and come in

she explains she lost her friend

her hair is a mess from running after SH

so AJ goes in the bathroom to fix it

she runs into SR

they both say they are here with their husbands

SR asks how old AJ’s husband is and what does he do

AJ asks why she needs to know that

SR says she is happy to here AJ is married

AJ:why are you happy that I am married

SR says she was worried AJ wouldnt look at a guy for the rest of her life after losing her first love or unrequited love

so thank goodness you got married

AJ asks: doesnt it bother you

you saying that with your own lips

SR: what does

was there anything between you and JB?

oh that you liked him

AJ: if you were my friend

at least you should feel sorry

SR: that you and JB would have ended well if you had confessed to JB after that second exam?

AJ: thats right

SR: since you are my friend

I wasnt going to tell you this

but you have no intuition

SR says JB really didnt like AJ

that JB begged SR to get AJ off his back

AJ: you must have had fun talking about me -the two of you

SR: you think I betrayed you and his my relationship from you

but she says she did AJ  a favor

cuz if SR told AJ about SR and JB

 AJ wouldnt have focused on her studies

and overreacted and gave up on studying

cuz I kept it a secret you passed that civil service exam

think about how you were able to pass

and do a good job doing the work you have now

someday you will find someone good

AJ: you

SR : how did I know you didnt marry?

I’m sorry but I knew from the start

you were so embarrassed so you pretended

SR: I will just say one thing

I am SR and you are AJ

just to beat me dont spread weird rumors

AJ: what did I do?

SR: what did you do for everyone to think you married K

does that make sense? how can you marry someone better than me

you have skills for making ppl believe something that doesnt make sense

AJ: so you dont like that I met someone more successful than you

I have to meet someone less successful for you to be satisfied

SR says of course-it defies the laws of the universe if you marry better than me

AJ fumes and repeats those last words after SR leaves

—

JB says hi to AJ

but SR takes him away

K comes out of the room

AJ thinks to herself:

quite often i think with my heart instead of my head

when I do that, an accident occurs

K smiles and waves at AJ

AJ says

honey I am here

JB and SR turn and stare

K puts his hand down and glares at AJ

end
