00:00G-Drama TV & Entertainment presents a web-thriller series, Something About Number 3.
00:30At the office, Sun is sitting at his desk, facing the ten men, BAM among them who were assigned to guard Min last night.
00:43Ten against one woman? Are you kidding me?
00:47She knew how to fight and was really good.
00:51We weren't expecting it, sir.
00:54Sun stands up, slamming both hands on his desk, fuming with anger.
01:01But there are ten of you, and you let that one woman escape.
01:05BAM shuts up, dropping his gaze.
01:09Victoria enters, walking across the room.
01:13Sun shifts his attention to her.
01:16She halts in front of his desk.
01:20They couldn't find Jenny.
01:23What do you mean?
01:25She has been missing since last night.
01:27What in the world is her manager doing?
01:31They were looking for her last night.
01:34They couldn't report to you because you were in a meeting with Min and a client.
01:39Sun erupts in a fury, violently sweeping everything off his desk in a bit of rage.
01:44Min, she had it all planned.
01:53No one can escape me.
01:55She's going to pay for this.
01:57We're just waiting for orders, sir.
02:00Track down Jenny.
02:02Find Min at all costs.
02:05Got it.
02:06Victoria leaves the room.
02:10Sun, struggling to control his anger, stands up and paces around his desk.
02:17He moves closer to BAM.
02:20You'd better clean up your mess.
02:22Yes, sir.
02:24Do it now.
02:25Call Victoria once it's done.
02:28BAM nods and leads the men out of the room.
02:31Min, wrapped in a blanket with her bare shoulders exposed, wakes up.
02:42She can barely open her eyes.
02:46She grabs her aching head, feeling dizzy.
02:50Then, she realizes she's lying in bed.
02:54She looks at herself and notices her bare shoulders.
02:57No way.
03:01Min lifts the blanket, her heart racing as she finds herself still wearing her black mini dress.
03:07A wave of relief washes over her, but the strange, unfamiliar surroundings only deepen her confusion and curiosity.
03:16What on earth happened last night?
03:19Min tries to recall everything that happened.
03:23I managed to get out of the club and into the parking lot.
03:26But, was I able to get into the car?
03:30The sound of a door closing catches Min's attention.
03:35She gets off the bed and slowly walks towards the closed door with her bare feet.
03:41She gently opens the door, taking a peek outside.
03:46Finding no one, she comes out of the room.
03:48The place is a lavish apartment in a towering multi-story building, offering a breathtaking aerial view of the neighboring structures through its expansive glass windows.
04:02Min notices something is cooking in the kitchen, but no one is there.
04:06She paces toward the kitchen, only to have a hand suddenly grab her arm from behind.
04:14She stops and swiftly pulls the hand off her.
04:19Pivoting quickly, she steps behind the man, twisting his arm behind his back.
04:24With a swift kick to the back of his right knee, she drops him to the floor on one knee.
04:33Barry cries out in agony, his body thrashing, but Min holds him down, unrelenting.
04:40It's me, Barry. Hey.
04:43Min checks his face and recognizes him.
04:47It's truly Barry, wearing gray sweatpants and a plain white t-shirt.
04:51What are you doing here? I mean, what am I doing here?
04:56Let go first. How can I explain this in my condition?
05:00How am I supposed to trust you?
05:02Isn't it enough that you're still alive and in one piece?
05:05Hey, if you don't want a burnt breakfast, you'd better let go now.
05:10Min glances at the kitchen, then back at Barry.
05:14She releases him.
05:21Barry quickly jumps up and rushes toward the kitchen.
05:26Grabbing the pan with the frying pancake, he removes the overcooked one and places it on a plate already stacked with pancakes.
05:34He turns off the fancy induction stove.
05:38You're going to burn this place down.
05:40You're the one who left it cooking unattended.
05:43Was the pancake supposed to jump off the pan by itself?
05:48Barry, plate of pancakes in hand, stops dead in his tracks.
05:54He shoots Min a look, sharp, loaded with unspoken words.
06:01What?
06:04Barry carries the plate to the dining table.
06:07Min follows him, seeing a breakfast spread, hot dogs, pancakes, sunny-side-up eggs, a pitcher of orange juice, and two glasses of brewed coffee.
06:20Wow. How many people are living in this apartment?
06:23Do I look like I'm living with someone here?
06:26Oh, I see. What an appetite you have, mister.
06:30This breakfast isn't for me. It's for you.
06:33Oh, you mean I have a big appetite?
06:37I didn't say that. Although, the level of your energy is kind of telling.
06:42Min raises her hand to strike him.
06:45Oops. Hold it. Don't you dare. Or else.
06:49Or else what?
06:51You really forgot what happened last night, didn't you?
06:55Did something happen between us last night?
06:57No. Not that. We fought in the parking lot.
07:00I was close to beating you down, but you passed out.
07:04Don't even think I'd let you lay a hand on me again.
07:08I just did.
07:10I didn't see that coming.
07:13Well, I'll make sure you don't see it coming next time.
07:16Just take a seat.
07:18I bet you didn't get to eat dinner last night, so I prepared a festive breakfast.
07:22I'm not even sure I want to take a bite.
07:25This feels like eat at your own risk.
07:29Fine. Do whatever you want. I'd better go take a shower.
07:33Berry turns and walks away.
07:35Hey, wait.
07:37Berry pauses and turns to face her.
07:40You're right. I'm starving. Terribly hungry, if I may say.
07:44Min sits down. Her movements deliberate as she begins piling food onto her plate.
07:52Each scoop more intense than the last.
07:55You'd better get real with me.
07:58Min continues to shove food into her mouth.
08:00Each bite sharp and urgent.
08:02As if she's trying to devour the entire world.
08:06Why did you help me?
08:08Hey, easy there.
08:10Why are you talking with your mouth full?
08:12Berry takes a seat across from her, his gaze steady.
08:17Min stuffs a large bite of pancake into her mouth.
08:21Chewing without a hint of hesitation.
08:23As if the world could crumble around her and she'd barely notice.
08:27Aren't you even embarrassed?
08:29Look at yourself.
08:31Why?
08:32It's a turn off.
08:33Great. What a relief.
08:36Berry twists his mouth in disdain.
08:38His eyes fixed on Min as she eats.
08:40A silent tension hanging in the air.
08:44You still haven't answered my question.
08:46Who else knows I'm here?
08:49I'm sure my mom doesn't know.
08:51Well, does your father know?
08:54Berry lets out an awkward, forced laugh.
08:57I meant son, in case you missed that.
09:02Right.
09:04Well, he doesn't.
09:06Why did you help me?
09:08Why not?
09:09You still haven't answered the question.
09:12I guess I was just trying to be a gentleman.
09:15Gentlemen?
09:16Huh.
09:16A small piece of food flies out of Min's mouth, landing with a soft splat.
09:23Berry gives her a snide, almost amused look.
09:27You didn't seem like one last night at the club.
09:30You were clearly enjoying yourself.
09:32I was just acting, in case you missed it.
09:35You were the one enjoying it so much that you even passed out.
09:38Min keeps eating, piling bites of hot dog and egg into her mouth without missing a beat,
09:52as if nothing can stop her.
09:55Well, what could I do?
09:57Son's men were chasing after you.
10:00You're in big trouble, aren't you?
10:03Min halts mid-bite, slowly finishing the food in her mouth.
10:07Berry watches in silence, waiting for her response.
10:14He's busted.
10:16Now that I know what he's up to, he won't stop until he locks me up.
10:20I'll make sure that doesn't happen.
10:23What is he up to?
10:25Oh, don't pretend like you don't know.
10:29If I had been completely sober, I could have kicked your ass last night.
10:33You were drinking, that's why.
10:36I only took a sip.
10:37You drank more wine than I did, and you were still sober.
10:41Maybe you can't handle your wine.
10:43Are you kidding me?
10:45I bet I can handle more alcohol than you.
10:48Maybe, given how big your appetite is.
10:52FYI, I knew he was going to drug me.
10:55I'm not the first one to be sold on the black market.
10:58And please, it's not like you didn't know.
11:02I didn't, since you seemed so cooperative.
11:06But after seeing how you were losing your balance while running away, it was probably the drug.
11:12You better zip it, or I'll report your involvement.
11:16What?
11:17I didn't even get to do anything.
11:20I guess we're even now.
11:22Wow.
11:23You really are something.
11:25Barry stands up.
11:27Hey, can I borrow some money?
11:29I left my purse in the car.
11:31I just need a little for a taxi.
11:34Where are you going?
11:36I need to get to my car.
11:37I can't run away from sun on foot.
11:40Are you crazy?
11:41You're going back there?
11:43The club is closed at this hour, so the security shouldn't be that tight.
11:47I bet they're lurking around my apartment now.
11:51There's some change on the table in the living room.
11:54Thanks.
11:55I'll pay you back.
11:57It's not much, really.
11:59What you did for me, that is.
12:02Someday, I will repay you.
12:04I'll take your word for it.
12:06Take your time.
12:07I'd better go ahead and take a shower.
12:11Somebody has to go to work.
12:13Barry steps closer to Min, his face lowering to her.
12:18The air between them thick with tension.
12:21Who knows?
12:23After a hot shower, I might want you to return the favor.
12:28Barry locks his gaze on Min's eyes, then slowly drifts down to her lips, his stare intense.
12:36She catches the shift in his eyes, her breath catching in her chest as she follows his gaze.
12:43In an instant, she leans back, creating space between them.
12:47Her heart racing.
12:50He smirks, a playful wink crossing his face, his smile widening to a smug grin.
12:57Her expression twists in disgust, the tension between them thick and palpable.
13:02With a final, teasing glance, he pulls himself upright, breaking the charged silence.
13:10Suit yourself.
13:12Barry walks off, his movements oozing smugness as he heads toward his room, a satisfied smirk playing on his lips.
13:22Min sits, frozen for a moment, the weight of the encounter lingering in the air.
13:27She forces herself to push past the shudder of disgust that runs down her spine.
13:35In one swift motion, she finishes her coffee, the bitter taste almost a relief.
13:41She wipes her mouth with the back of her hand, her eyes narrowing as she steadies herself, pushing the uncomfortable moment aside.
13:55Min gets up and walks into the living room, spotting the money on the coffee table.
14:00She picks it up, her eyes briefly flicking to the baseball cap resting beside it.
14:08She turns away from the table but pauses, then quickly spins back around.
14:14With a determined motion, she grabs the cap and heads for the door.
14:23Min walks away from Barry's apartment building, still wearing her heels.
14:28She pulls the baseball cap on, tugging it down to cover part of her face.
14:35The taxi approaches.
14:38Min runs toward it, calling out to catch its attention.
14:43The taxi pulls over, and Min quickly gets in.
14:48Without a word, the taxi drives off, disappearing into the quiet morning.
14:58The taxi eventually drops Min off in the heart of the city, two blocks away from V Nightclub.
15:05She walks down the bustling streets.
15:09As she crosses an intersection, a large digital screen on the building across lights up with a newsflash.
15:19Min, along with the people around her, comes to a sudden stop, their attention fixed on the screen.
15:24The screen flashes an image of her wrecked car along a highway, police authorities swarming the area as they secure the scene.
15:34A reporter's voice narrates the unfolding events in the background.
15:37Socialite actress and A-list celebrity Min Andrews has tragically died in a car crash this morning at approximately 9.30 a.m.
15:47CCTV footage from the scene shows the vehicle suddenly losing control, veering into the opposite lane, spinning out, and crashing into a large concrete barricade.
15:57The impact caused the car to burst into flames and explode.
16:01Authorities are investigating the cause of the accident.
16:03Initial reports from authorities indicate that the famous actress, Min Andrews, was last seen leaving an exclusive VIP nightclub earlier this morning.
16:31Investigators suspect that she may have been driving under the influence of alcohol at the time of the crash.
16:37It is confirmed that she was alone in the vehicle and reportedly drove herself home before the fatal accident occurred.
16:45Authorities are continuing their investigation into the cause of the crash.
16:50Min pulls her eyes away from the big screen, her face frozen in shock.
16:55She takes a shaky step forward, her pace quickening as she walks briskly, trying to escape the overwhelming reality closing in on her.
17:08Alex and Brian stand frozen, their eyes glued to the TV screen as the news of Min's passing unfolds.
17:15Both are in stunned silence, the weight of the revelations sinking in, their expressions a mix of disbelief and shock.
17:25Try calling her back, she should have made out.
17:29Alex shakes his head, his body trembling with disbelief.
17:34Slowly, tears begin to well up, and he breaks down, unable to hold it in any longer.
17:41Alex ignores him, his sobs growing uncontrollable, the weight of the situation breaking him.
17:54Brian pulls out his phone, his hands shaking as he dials her number, desperate for any sign of hope.
18:02The cold, automated voice of the operator echoes in his ear.
18:07The number you dialed cannot be reached.
18:11He dials again, his heart pounding, only to hear the same unyielding message.
18:17With a hollow expression, he turns his gaze back to the TV, the reality setting in.
18:24No, this can't be happening.
18:27We failed.
18:28Alex collapses to his knees, overwhelmed with grief, his sobs sharp and desperate, filled with frustration.
18:39Brian stands frozen for a moment, his body trembling uncontrollably as the weight of it all crashes down on him.
18:47Tears well up in his eyes, spilling over as he struggles to keep himself together, the reality of the situation too much to bear.
18:55Min enters TS Entertainment's basement parking lot, her eyes scanning the area.
19:09The lot is nearly empty, with only a few cars parked.
19:14She moves cautiously, glancing around as she searches for something.
19:20Her eyes dart from one corner to another, on high alert.
19:24Min spots a red sedan and rushes toward the back of the car.
19:31She bends down, reaching under the bumper, her fingers brushing against something.
19:38With a quick motion, she pulls out the car key.
19:42Suddenly, she hears the sound of an approaching vehicle.
19:46She stands up and quickly hides behind a concrete post, holding her breath.
19:56A black luxury sedan glides past, its sleek frame cutting through the air.
20:03Min peeks around the post, catching sight of Victoria in the front seat, with Sun and Vil in the back.
20:09The car slows down, then parks about five meters away from her.
20:19Everyone stayed inside the car.
20:23All of Min's projects will be passed on to you.
20:27Vil looks utterly astonished.
20:30Victoria will be arranging your schedule.
20:33Vil looks at Victoria, who remains motionless in her seat.
20:37Min retreats into the shadows once more, pressing her back against the cold concrete.
21:07Post in the parking lot.
21:09Sun and the driver walk past, unaware of her presence.
21:14Vil moves to the back of the car, waiting for Victoria.
21:19Victoria halts before Vil, the tension palpable.
21:23Vil's gaze locks onto her, her eyes searching for answers in the silence.
21:29Just do as you're told.
21:30It's the best thing you can do right now.
21:32Victoria walks ahead, her footsteps steady, leaving Vil motionless in her wake.
21:41Vil stands there, bewildered, caught off guard by the sudden change.
21:46The weight of Min's death hangs heavily over her, a silent storm of grief in every step.
21:55The parking lot falls unervingly silent, as though the world itself is holding its breath.
22:03Min takes a careful step forward, hoping to remain unseen.
22:06But as she moves, she catches sight of Vil turning in her direction.
22:14Too late.
22:15Before she can even react, Vil's eyes meet hers.
22:19Vil freezes.
22:20Time seems to stretch as Min and Vil lock eyes, an unspoken realization dawning between them.
