Pinocchio: Episode 15
by girlfriday, dramabeans, January 1, 2015


So SBS changed their minds this week and there’s no double-header for Pinocchio, which I suppose might only be good news for a recapper, but don’t worry—the episode makes up for it with some juicy tidbits in the investigation and the relationships. Of course that leaves us just hungry enough to clamor for next week’s episodes now, but what fun would drama-watching be without the torturous wait and the dark circles?

EPISODE 15: “Don Quixote”



Now that Mom has implicated their cop friend Chan-soo as the scapegoat in the chemical plant fire, both In-ha and Dal-po vow to clear his name. Chan-soo stops by his old precinct just to visit the pressroom, and hands out tangerines to everyone with a request to tell his story the right way.

He tells them all that the CCTV footage is of him responding to a small butane can explosion the night before the fire, and he didn’t go inside the building because the men who called said it was just a small kitchen fire while cooking ramyun on a portable stove, and that they would’ve canceled the call if he hadn’t responded so quickly.

They ask about him looking so cavalier in the footage, since apparently people have been taking issue with the way he’s leaning instead of standing straight up while on duty. Chan-soo points out the pounds of equipment strapped to his waist at all times, and says that it’s just what happens when you wear your gear all day.

The reporters wonder why they’re each getting envelopes along with their tangerines, and give him the side-eye assuming it’s a little cash to grease their palms. But they turn out to be invitations to his baby’s first birthday party this weekend. Dal-po and In-ha’s eyes widen and Dal-po throws Chan-soo over his shoulder to carry him out of the room, while In-ha clamps his mouth shut.

They try to explain that this is no time for him to be throwing parties—the public is prepared to crucify him, and throwing a birthday party is just going to make him look worse. Dal-po says that he’s been through this before, and it’s only going to get worse. In-ha looks over at them both feeling enormously guilty, and apologizes for her mother. Chan-soo tells her sweetly that her mother is not something she needs to apologize for.

Chan-soo seems either like he’s putting on a brave front or that it hasn’t really sunk in yet how bad it could be, but just tells them both that it’ll all work out. Dal-po tells him that he’s going to do everything in his power to clear his name and In-ha chimes in as well, making Chan-soo grateful that his old classmates have his back.


He hugs Dal-po and then heads over to In-ha to hug her too, and HA—Dal-po steps in between them to play interference and hugs Chan-soo again. It’s a Dal-po sandwich!

Dal-po goes to visit Hyung in jail and tells him about Chan-soo and the fire, and Hyung thinks he must be putting on a brave face and tamping down the burning anger inside, because that’s how he was thirteen years ago. Dal-po realizes that he assumed Hyung was holding up okay back then too.

He says this time it’ll be different because there’s a good reporter out there, and points a finger at himself with a cheeky smile. Heh, I like that Hyung gives him a hard time about the bragging.

At MSC, Princess tries to lead his staff meeting and agrees with In-ha and Beom-jo that they should be looking into the cause of the fire. But Mom keeps interrupting despite telling them to think of her as invisible, and keeps pushing for more stories about Chan-soo, including the Santa incident where he let a suspect escape under his watch.

At YGN, they sigh over the fire investigation taking so long, and a staffer pitches the same story about Chan-soo and the Santa. But Gyo-dong shuts him down and tells them not to be swayed by other reports.

He reminds them of the fire thirteen years ago and why it was a lesson during their interview—they’re sticking to the facts on this, otherwise they’re fueling the anger to come out in some other way. Director Lee listens in and smiles proudly to hear his own words from thirteen years ago coming out of Gyo-dong.



MSC reports the Santa story, though Princess seems ashamed of it. Beom-jo finds In-ha watching Chan-soo’s CCTV footage over and over to look for clues, and joins her. She complains about needing a bandaid for her heel after wearing new shoes, and Beom-jo’s already flying out of the room before she finishes her sentence.

Yoo-rae investigates the wreckage at the plant and nearly falls trying to make her way through the yard, when Dal-po shows up just in time to catch her. He says he came because he was curious about something, which she naturally takes as a renewed sign of his crush.

They ask the inspectors how to get to the CCTV footage, and they say it’s impossible—the security room was destroyed in the fire. That just makes it even more suspicious that Mom somehow miraculously managed to get that tape of Chan-soo, but the inspector does add that backups would be kept by the outside security firm that they use.

As In-ha sleeps with her head on Beom-jo’s shoulder, he finally discovers something weird about the footage (that it took them all night to see this is crazy, but whatever). He shows In-ha that there’s a split-second gap where a man suddenly goes from one side of the group to the other, meaning that two segments were edited together.

She runs down to ask Mom about it, and Dal-po shows up to add that the security room at the plant was completely destroyed—so how is it that she got her footage directly from the source, as she claims?

Mom starts to get flustered, and Dal-po says that the outside security firm told him that it’s against the law for them to give their backups to anyone but the original company who hired them. Mom just blusters at them to come with facts, not suspicions, but doesn’t have much else to say in her defense.

ooooh this spoiled girl hehehehehe she's like a cute cat



I feel sorry for her but she makes me laughing funny scene

In-ha puts two and two together, and realizes that this means someone at the plant edited the footage to cover up the real cause of the fire, and Mom is helping the cover-up by pointing all eyes in Chan-soo’s direction. Despite having suspected it, it still floors her that Mom is actually this evil.

Dal-po heads back out to try and track down neighboring factory security cameras, and In-ha worries that it’ll take him forever. She runs up to grab her coat and tells Beom-jo she’s headed out to do the same, and even though he points out her bloody nose, she says she’s fine and runs out.

Beom-jo is surprised when he finds a strange phone ringing in his bag—it’s Yoo-rae on the other end, wondering who stole her phone. He goes back to the precinct to give it back, and asks why Dal-po’s picture is her wallpaper. She says it’s to throw him a bone because she feels bad that he likes her, and Beom-jo gapes: “You don’t actually think he likes you for real?”



He realizes that she believed his lie in front of Dad and Grandpa, and explains that it was a lie… but then she’s so far gone that she tells him it doesn’t matter because that lie has turned into truth. He looks at her like she’s crazy and says there’s no way that Dal-po likes her, but she doesn’t even let him finish.

Dal-po calls just then to tell her that he’s searching nearby security cameras and can’t go to the baby birthday party, which she takes as some kind of proof that he likes her. But all Beom-jo hears is that he’s doing the very thing In-ha ran off to do. They head to the party, but Beom-jo suddenly tells Yoo-rae to take a cab and leaves her standing in the street.

Meanwhile, In-ha finds Dal-po and offers to split up the search with him, and he steals a little glance at her while she’s chattering away about CCTV cameras and maps.

Chaebol Mommy calls the MSC director and Song Cha-ok to her office to thank them for their report, and says that she won some points with the assemblyman they’re helping. Ah, so all this is so that she can have an assemblyman in her pocket. She asks them to continue putting the focus on the police officer until it blows over.

She notices Cha-ok looking nervous, and thinks it cute that she’s all jittery about Dal-po discovering that the footage was edited and searching for other cameras in the area. Mommy’s already taken care of that, and tells her not to worry her pretty little head about such things.

Sure enough, In-ha and Dal-po hit dead end after dead end, but they press on. In-ha insists on helping even while limping and bleeding from her new shoes, which she keeps hidden from Dal-po. But Beom-jo watches from a distance and sighs.



After coming up empty, Dal-po heads to MSC where Mom asks confidently why he isn’t here with evidence like he said he’d be. He tells her he was naïve—he only thought of clearing Chan-soo’s name, but it wasn’t until he discovered that someone with immense power and resources must’ve erased the entire neighborhood’s security cameras that it occurred to him this was much, much bigger. He tells her to thank whoever is behind all this for the hint, and once again leaves her shaking in worry.

Yoo-rae arrives at the banquet hall to find it swarming with reporters. The party was over long ago, when Chan-soo had to clear his family out away from reporters who chased them with accusations of throwing parties while victims’ families mourn. Every station except YGN reports the incident that night, and as Chan-soo watches it on TV, it finally starts to sink in how bad this is.
