What happened here?
That's a good question.
This is... intense.
What the heck...
This is going to take all day.
Yeah.
Your partner didn't show up today either?
Didn't even text.
Men...
What do you think?
Some sort of wild animal?
Ever hear of a wild animal jabbing a stake through a man's heart?
No...
So, a couple of weird things.
First, these people have fangs.
Second, this crime scene is fresh,
but based on the body temps, these victims have been dead awhile.
What's "awhile"?
Seems like at least a few weeks.
And in one case, six hundred years.
Six hundred years?
Oddly, it's as though these "dead" people were somehow alive.
Come here, and look at these teeth.
Just listen to me.
First, they were vampires.
They were already dead, so I didn't kill anyone.
And second, I just killed them for now. They'll be alive again.
So you admit you did it?
Yes.
I had to, to save the world.
You got that?
Yeah, killed them to save the world.
Great, let's go.
I did it for love!
Psst.
I believe you.
Is Joon going to be okay?
He just put himself in harm's way to save you.
Joon Park just did some super awesome leading man stuff.
For you! This has got to be a good sign.
Okay.
I'm just saying... if I had supernatural powers,
I would totally have stayed and taken on all those vampires too.
What's-his-name doesn't have like a monopoly on being the good guy.
- Yes, Evan. I know you're a good guy. - Right?
Here we go again--
Claire!
Where have you been? You completely missed the bust!
Wait, you're a cop?!
Yeah, I'm undercover trying to take down Hyun.
Remember, it's the drama we were watching.
You... you...
You lied to Hyun? But he's such a cool guy.
Evan, he's a gangster and super villainous.
K-dramas. Good guys. Bad guys. We talked about this.
Claire, I don't know where Ji-won is.
What do you mean you don't know where Ji-won is?
Who are these people?
Right, yes, okay. That's Evan.
He's an informant from Hyun's gang.
I'm a member. You are the informant.
Okay.
Also, maybe not the best idea to wander out in the open chatting with informants.
And the kid?
Kid?
I do more for this world in a day than you could ev--
Okay, I'm a part-time nanny.
What? You're not paying me, are you?
Gals got to put food on the table.
Okay, fine...
None of this is important.
What's important is Ji-won never came back last night.
Hyun has been off the radar since yesterday too.
So I need you to do get back undercover with Hyun and find Ji-won.
See, the thing is, we're kind of in the middle of something and...
Claire…
Ji-won is my mom.
Ji-won's your mom?
Your dad--
is a facilitator.
And your mom is a leading--
Are you serious?
That's a thing?
We've got to find her.
What are you talking about?
Okay, here's what we're going to do.
Evan and I are going back out there. You're going to stay here.
But…
I know, Sam, but it's going to be dangerous.
Okay? I promise I'm going to...
...we're going to find your mom.
This is my favorite part.
They make a good couple.
Here. Maybe you can hold on to this for me.
Take the reins for a little while.
You want me to have the book?
Well, somebody's got to explain it all to the new facilitators.
I can't.
If I don't believe in love, how can I?
- Seth. - Sorry.
You don't know how much this means to me.
Thank you, Doug.
I'll do everything in my power to protect this place.
Okay.
- Everything! - Okay, okay.
I can't-- I can't breathe.
I'm not facilitating.
I'm just having a look around, Okay?
They're all gone. They took the entire clan.
I'm sorry. I didn't know…
You didn't know?
Your kind did this! You made me hide, like a coward!
I knew you wouldn't stop fighting until they killed you! And Seth--
Seo-yeon!
Sit down.
You're pale.
You need blood.
No, I'll be fine. I'll be ok.
No, you need it!
You know it's always been you…
It will always be you.
Do you want to go get a bite somewhere after this?
Nobody's ever noticed, but I have.
Vampires, weretigers, time-travelers, beautiful men…
And it's like the rest of us are literally invisible. It's weird isn't it?
I mean I didn't even know my own name until last week.
I feel like this is the first time I've ever spoken for this long.
Sorry, I just need a minute alone.
Let's talk later.
And you would have, but you saved me instead.
- I mean, you saved my life. - Claire, you're okay.
And you really shouldn't have. I mean...
Everyone would be better off if I was dead.
Claire.
Where are you?
I need you.
Visitor for Joon Park.
Joon Park.
- Go ahead, get it all out. - Hey! Calm down!
- What do you want? - The same thing you want.
To save Dramaworld.
Have a seat.
Let me pose a little question.
Look at your circumstances.
You're in jail for multiple homicides, which you did commit.
Your father disowned you.
You tried to steal your brother's true love--
- That was-- - You blew up a factory.
And then you monologued about it.
Now, from the outside, what does that make you?
Definitely not a leading man.
Yes, thank you.
More like a villain.
You're the bad guy. But do you think you're a bad guy?
Or are you doing everything based on some sort of logic of saving the world?
And if you're doing that,
then maybe you can allow it into that arrogant leading man head of yours
that other people are, too.
Maybe you're just looking at it through the wrong lens.
Maybe I'm one of the good guys.
You're joking, right?
As a former facilitator,
I can tell you that Dramaworld is going sideways.
And that's not me.
We're both playing by the rules that someone else is changing.
The fact that we're both here. The fact that you were in the real world.
Dramaworld has a real problem, Joon. And that problem's name--
is Doug.
He's our best pitcher.
Tonight is the last game of the playoffs and he's supposed to start!
When he missed warm-up, we found him like this.
And he's been like this all day?
Yeah.
Detective? Maybe you'd like to take some notes for our report?
Notes.
Yeah.
So what did you just say?
That's the fifth one of these we've seen today.
Number three was definitely my favorite.
Number four.
What was that?
But, I agree.
The abs on the fourth guy are definitely the best.
Is this weird?
Mm-hmm.
Where have you been?
- Fishing. - My aunt's.
You know, we've been here and there.
You guys ready for a job?
Sure, yup. What are we... doing?
Let's go.
Get in.
If you need anything, don't hesitate to ask
anyone in a magenta jacket.
While you wait, Seth wanted me to play a little music for you.
Hope you enjoy.
♪ This isn’t a dream ♪
♪ I so want to believe ♪

- You still look skeptical, Joon. - Don't think I don't remember.
"Taste of Love".
- You were ready to destroy the world. - I know.
I know.
I was a man in love, Joon.
Because I used to believe in love.
But that was my mistake.
- Do you love Claire? - Yes.
Truly, with all your heart?
- Yes. - Everything you've done is for her.
And now you're in prison.
I'm here to help you, where is she?
See, that's what I'm saying, everything is wrong.
Okay, I'm here with you when she's off doing god knows what.
If you truly believe that your love for Claire can save this place.
I do.
Great.
Then let's find out.
My name's Guard, by the way.
Won't even shake my hand... Geez!
Hurry up.
Are you ok?
I'm fine.
I'm just a little tipsy from the alcohol in your blood.
Come here. Hop on.
It's fine.
Can I have just a tiny bit more?
Sure.
Both of our fathers are dead.
That means we don't have to ask anyone. We can just get married.
This war will end someday,
and you and I, we can be the start of a new race.
Werepires?
Vamtigers.
Vamtigers?
Sure. Vamtigers.
Our love can conquer all.
When I was days old,
my mother left me in front of an orphanage.
A tiny little baby abandoned…
Having no idea who she was, I grew up wishing every night for just one thing.
A family.
But they never came.
I grew bitter. I got in trouble.
Got kicked out of the orphanage and found out…
Oh, the world doesn't care about people like us.
Then I met Dong-su.
And that's when I realized I had been going about it all wrong.
I'd been waiting around for a family…
To find me, accept me, want me.
But that whole time, I could have been making one myself.
Because real family isn't about the people that leave you on the steps.
It's about the ones you choose to love.
I let you both…
into my family.
And one of you betrayed me.
And now you'll have to pay.
They're just frozen in their showers.
He's taken every leading man out of their dramas.
Flashbacks that lead in the flashbacks. They're all stuck in memory loops.
I just wanted to show that if Claire and Joon could live happily ever after,
so could you and Mom.
But now there are Australian frogs everywhere,
and I don't know what to do.
You need to facilitate!
I can't do it.
I already told you, if I don't believe in love then how--
You do believe in love!
You can't have a broken heart without it.
But this isn't about your broken heart.
This is about all of us.
Love is in danger here.
And…
I can't find Mom.
Give me the book.
Which of you sold me out?
Hyun? What?
What are you talking about?
Don't play dumb with me.
Neither of you showed up yesterday.
But you know who did?
The cops.
Now how would they know exactly when and where to hit us?
Good guess?
Four people knew where that delivery was happening beforehand.
You, him, the singer, and me.
And I already handled the singer.
Did you kill her?
Is that how you treat family?
Like we're disposable? Right, Dong-su?
Like none of us even matters? Where's Ji-won?
I did what I had to do.
Whoa, dude.
So now,
I can kill you both and wash my hands of the whole thing. Or…
you can show me who's truly part of the family.
Oh, boy!
Bloodthirsty gangsters on one side,
cute guy who really likes you on the other.
But then there's Joon and Seth and this world.
Oh gosh, Claire's in trouble.
Claire.
I'm really scared.
It's okay.
Trust me.
I know what I'm doing.
Whose got a light? Boss needs a light--
I think.
Okay, Hyun.
You want to know who's really part of the family?
I'll show you who's part of the family.
You no-good snitch!
What would you do if Claire stopped loving you?
She wouldn't.
Why not?
You forgot about her, didn't you?
That wasn't my fault.
You forgot about the woman you loved?
What a jerk.
Hypothetically,
one day at dinner, Claire sits across from you and says,
"I don't love you anymore."
That would never happen.
Why do you think seasons here only last 16 episodes?
Even Romeo and Juliet would hate each other by episode 30.
I'll always love Claire no matter what.
There's a world beyond love.
I want you to know that, just in case.
In case of what?
Claire.
I knew you were an animal, but man…
Yeah...
I should've known.
He never could explain how he got that briefcase.
Stop the car.
Why?
Stop the car. Now. Now!
I-- I just... I'm just so jacked.
Like, whoo! Electricity, like, pulsing through me.
Killing gets me so amped.
I know exactly what you mean.
I still get it every time, too.
Yeah, like, I got to burn this energy off or I'm not going to sleep tonight.
So I'm just going to get out now and run back. Little, like, murder jog!
That'll sort me out. Yeah?
You do what you gotta do. See you tomorrow!
Sure thing. Yeah. Uh-huh.
Evan!
The last leading man, leading lady pair left.
These two could be our only chance for love in the world.
Ready?
Did I ever tell you about the drama where your mom was a bodybuilder?
Evan! Evan! Evan!
Evan! I'm sorry. Evan!
Evan! Hold on, I'm coming.
Don't go back to the real world just yet. No! Come on!
I still need you.
Evan!
You're alive, you're alive! Oh my god, you're alive! I'm so, so sorry.
I had to. I had to so that we could save Dramaworld.
And I didn't explain to you the rules. I'm sorry! Nothing would've--
You saved my life.
I'm sorry, Joon.
