Eun kyung admits that after seeing the two together, she forgot all her previous desire to stay married and now wants a divorce. She doesn’t need Yu ri’s consolation and wants both of them to join hands together in creating the greatest divorce show.
The next morning, to Choi So ra’s shock, she receives court papers from Eun kyung who wants to sue her over her affair.
As soon as Eun kyung enters the firm, she summons Choi So Ra to her office and makes her know that she’s aware of her betrayal. Choi so Ra becomes uncomfortable and wants to resign but Eun kyung doesn’t let her, claiming it’s because she is good at her job. So Ra asks how long she has known but Eun kyung doesn’t tell her and says she asks questions like all other adulterers. So Ra claims that she and her husband Kim Ji sang were practically strangers anyway but Eun kyung’s non chalance riles her up and she leaves but Eun kyung isn’t strong. She actually feels hurt and tries to hold back her tears.
She then sends court papers and images of the wedding pictures to her husband. He is shocked but remorseless as he asks if she spied on him. He tells her he is sick of her and that her action has given him the proof he needs to leave her. Eun kyung, in tears, tells him not to call her but to call her lawyer. As her husband asks if she also told Woo Jin, she cuts the call and finally succumbs to tears.
We jump back to the present where Yu ri arrives at the office but meets a somber atmosphere. A staff gossips about Eun kyung’s husband’s affair but Yu ri doesn’t want to participate in that talk.
After some thought, Yu ri goes to meet Eun kyung in her office and asks her if she only wanted her as an attorney to stop her from resigning but Eun kyung tells her she really doesn’t need an attorney as she knows divorce better than anyone but she needs Yu ri because they are different from each other and she can keep her balanced.
They meet with a new VIP client, a wealthy man whose wife who lives abroad with their children wants to divorce him and take half his property. He complains of how he slaved so hard to create his company and take care of his family. He agreed to part ways with his wife five years ago because he suspected her of cheating on him, although there was no evidence. She had suggested the break up telling him that if she cheated, it was his fault for making her lonely.
However, when his company got listed, she changed her mind to divorce so she could get a huge sum of money. Eun kyung tells the man that since he still visited them in the US, his wife would claim that they were still happily married and deserves to recieve half of what he owns. The man doesn’t want that to happen and pleads with them to save his company, afraid he would loose everything if his wife gets half his properties.
After the meeting, Eun kyung and Yu ri think of ways to prove to the court that their clients marriage wasn’t working long ago. When Yu ri suggests inviting the man’s mother whom he lived with, Eun kyung disproves her citing that the court wouldn’t take her seriously since they are related. She wants Yu ri to think outside the box and is dissapointed that it’s which such mediocre strategy she wants to win her divorce case.
Eun kyung’s husband Kim Ji sang and Choi so Ra meet with a distinguished lawyer to handle their case. The evidence against them is strong and Choi so Ra defends herself claiming that their relationship already ended when they started their affair. Eun kyung’s husband adds that he raised their daughter alone and that he wants sole custody of her when the lawyer suggests he gives her to her mother.
After the meeting, So Ra asks Kim Ji sang husband if he is serious about raising his daughter Jae hui, looking upset when he admits it.
During the court session for Eun kyung and Yu ri’s client, the wife isn’t fazed when she is accused of cheating and wanting a divorce because of money. She laughs that her husband has no proof of her infidelity especially since he still sends her money every month causing the judge to postpone the case until they get proof of a broken marriage.
Afterwards, Eun kyung and Yu ri ask their client if he really sends his wife money and he admits he sends her 25000 dollars every month because he feels it’s his responsibility. Eun kyung tells him to stop doing so. If so, his wife is justified to recieve half of his assets but her client refuses. Eun kyung tells him he spoilt her by giving her everything she wanted. No doubt, she would feel bad if he refuses her this time. He should try to accept the fact that they’re no longer a family. He is no longer her provider
Eun kyung then postpones the trial to three weeks later when the youngest daughter would be an adult and can testify. She requests Yu ri to talk to her. Then, she suddenly asks her to pick up her daughter from a field trip and drive her to her academy since she has work to do. Yu ri wants to refuse suggesting she ask her husband but Eun kyung reminds her she can’t do that because he would use this against her so Yu ri is left with no choice.
However, it turns out that Jae hui, Eun kyung’s daughter is just like her mother, strict and straight forward as during the drive, she scolds Yu ri for not having a decent watch and making her schedule get jumbled up because she picked her up five minutes late. When Yu ri laughs saying she’s just like her mother, Jae hui refutes it, saying she’s like her dad Kim Ji sang. Then she asks why Choi So.Ra didn’t pick her up since she’s usually the one who does. Yu ri lies that she’s busy. Just then, Jae hui admits she’s aware of her parents divorce which shocks Yu ri. She pretends that she knows nothing but Jae hui doesn’t believe her. Yu ri can’t help but tell again that she’s so much like her mother.
That night, Yu ri and Eun ho go drinking. Yu ri complains that Eun kyung wants her to become a baby sitter threatening to report her to the ministry of labor while Eun ho thinks she will go far in her career if she helps Eun kyung. As for him, he is ready to pick her child up so many times as long as it makes him famous so he could set up in his own firm and do whatever he likes but Yu ri thinks he will only get busier if he does that. Eun ho then says he could marry a competent woman but Yu ri believes he should starts by having blind dates with better women. Eun ho drags that he has a lot of dates lined up. He currently has about three dates to attend that week. Yu ri tells him to settle for one but Eun ho explains that women expect him to be cool because he works for a big law firm but he’s simply an office worker.
Yu ri tells him it’s because of this she has no intention of getting married because human beings are incapable of sharing. Eun ho agrees with her but suggests that instead, they should marry someone they love, whom they can share things with. If he meets such a woman, he would immediately marry her. He smiles at her and this makes Yu ri feel awkward. He then offers to buy her every dish except the most expensive beef in the restaurant. (Ha ha!)
The two end up getting very drunk and when Yu ri wakes up the next morning, she finds herself in a motel, lying in bed with a stranger. She panics and wears her clothes but is shocked upon discovering the stranger is Eun ho. No doubt, they had sex the night before due to drunkenness. Yu ri is embarrassed and sneaks out of the room.
Yu ri gets fidgety when she gets to work and Eun kyung points out that she is still wearing her clothes from yesterday. She also gets more tense when Eun kyung mentions motel muanyu which happens to be where she and Eun ho slept together.
Yu ri and Eun ho are so awkward when they run into each other, both of them stuttering as Yu ri suggests to Eun ho that she wants to pay half of their meal from last night but he prevents her. Still she insists and suggests they should both eat lunch separately from now on. It gets more awkward when Eun ho reminds her that he usually eats lunch with his blind dates. Afterwards, they both dash into offices, embarrassed by their awkward behaviors.
The CEO suddenly enters shouting Eun kyung’s name. He is outraged over the news of her divorce due to the affair and asks her if it’s true. So Ra is embarrassed as Eun kyung admits it and just then, Woo Jin steps in convincing the CEO to leave in other not to cause a scene. The CEO reluctantly does. Woo Jin escorts him to the car, chastising him for humiliating Eun kyung. The CEO adds that he couldn’t sit back after his firm was mentioned. It would ruin his company’s reputation but Woo Jin tells him that his behavior will ruin the firm’s reputation further. The CEO can’t refute him and drives off.
Woo Jin then meets with Eun kyung dissapointed that he heard about her divorce from the news and that she hadn’t told him personally. Eun kyung apologises and explains that she will use her divorce to raise the firm higher. Woo Jin wants to help her but remembering her husband’s words about telling Woo Jin everything, she insists on taking care of things herself.
Eun kyung meets her husband Kim Ji sang at a restaurant and the two have a tense confrontation. He wants her to drop the lawsuit and settle amicably but she refuses, no longer caring about her reputation. He threatens to reveal how selfish and what a bad mother she was if she goes on with the case but Eun kyung tells him to do his worst. He accuses her of not caring about her daughter and that she isn’t fit to be a mother but Eun kyung counters him, saying he should have thought about her before things went this bad. She warns him never to mention her daughter to her again and that he should be prepared for the battle ahead. He promises to make her regret.
Eun kyung’s clients wife storms into her office demanding to see her. When they meet, she’s upset that Eun kyung changed the next trial date and decides on getting just thirty percent of her husband’s wealth claiming her husband has no right to be a father even though he is the bread winner but Eun kyung refuses to settle or give her even one percent of her husband’s money.
When Eun kyung and Yu ri meet with their client, he suddenly wants to give his wife thirty percent of his wealth because he is tired of his wife doubting his incompetence as a father. Yu ri is not in support but Eun kyung decides to give in which shocks both Yu ri and her client. However, the man starts to hesitate and asks Eun kyung what he should do. Eun kyung advises him to cut off all contact with his wife and leave her to struggle with the bills so she can realize what she took for granted. The man feels sad because his daughter’s birthday is coming up. He doesn’t want to ruin it but Yu ri tells him that her birthday is a celebration for them. He doesn’t understand but she assures him that he will and urges him to be strong.
Eun kyung and Yu ri drive back to the law firm with Eun kyung being frustrated by Yu ri’s slow driving. When they eventually get to the firm, they meet with Kim Ji sang’s lawyer but Eun kyung doesn’t regard him. He wants them to settle outside of court but Eun kyung refuses and leaves. Yu ri then introduces herself to the lawyer telling him to speak with her about the case Instead. He tries to belittle her saying she looks like someone who just graduated highschool. She reiterates calling him an old heads master who seems close to retirement. (Omg!)
At the court hearing of their client, Yu ri and Eun kyung submit a handwritten note by the youngest daughter who is now an adult detailing how their parents informed them they were no longer a couple about five years ago. The two also provide evidence of the man staying at a hotel during his visits abroad instead of at their Manhattan home. They also present phone recording of the husband calling the wife after three years to discuss their children’s future but she refused to talk to him. With all these evidence, it was clear that they were not in a happy relationship due to the woman’s fault. She’s in a state of shock as she ultimately looses the case.
Afterwards, the man thanks them. He is surprised his children took his side especially since they were closer to their mother but Eun kyung tells him to stand strong and never cower even though someone uses his children against him. (She’s also referring to her own situation). He thanks them for encouraging him to stay strong.
While Eun kyung and Yu ri are eating an expensive dinner that night, Yu ri advises her to tell her daughter about her divorce as she already has a hint about it. She then asks if she will settle with her husband but Eun kyung refuses since she will have to give half of her assets to him. Yu ri realises she only wants revenge going against what she had told her before not to get emotional with a cheating spouse and give them what is owed to them. However, now Eun kyung admits she only wants revenge determined to leave her husband nothing.
The episode ends as the next morning, Yu ri is shocked when she enters Eun kyung’s office and sees her seemingly kissing Woo Jin.
This is currently one of my favorite dramas. It’s so enticing and the ending…totally unexpected. I love how the our two heroines slowly balance each other and the case dealt on this episode was rather interesting and I’m glad, a man was the victim this time, not always a woman. I’m glad to see Eun kyung gearing for her revenge. However, from the review, it isn’t going to be easy to win especially with this rumor of her and Woo Jin. We shall see how it turns out in the next episode.
