Brain Works Episode 8 Recap
A Different Victim and Murderer
The police are looking into a murder case in which the husband says he killed the neighbour out of anger. But the clues and forensic tests point in a different direction, so the detectives act out the crime to find out what really happened. They think that the killer is the husband’s wife, and a brain test backs up their theory. The neighbour was having an affair with his wife, so she had a reason to kill him. The detectives find proof of the affair in a picture on the neighbour’s phone, and the wife says she did it.
Using the Wife’s Brain Against Her
Ha-Ru comes up with a plan to get the wife to confess by making her think about the murder over and over again. They also watch her make sure she doesn’t get rid of any evidence.
But the driver of the car they were hiding behind sees them. The wife says she had nothing to do with it and was just taking out the trash. Myung-Se looks through the trash and finds another trophy, but since it doesn’t have any DNA, he can’t test it.
Our Detective’s Observation Skills Secure the Smoking Gun
A woman kills her neighbour because he made fun of her husband’s illness. She tries to hide the evidence, but a detective finds blood on her hiking clothes and is able to catch her. Even though she says she didn’t do it, her body reacts to the lies, and she has to admit it. To protect her, her husband takes the blame.
How to Confess Your Love in Ha-ru’s Style?
Myung-Se tries very hard to keep Ha-Ru, but when a case is solved, he gives up. Before he leaves, Ha-Ru comes up with a plan to help Se-Jung tell Myung-Se how she feels. Myung-Se will be taken to a dangerously high place so that Se-Jung will think that his racing heart is because he loves her. But when Myung-Se actually jumps off the mountain, Se-Jung is shocked.
It’s not clear if he really fell or if Se-Jung is just making it up. Since joining the team, Ha-Ru has become more friendly, which has helped him and Myung-Se like each other even though they fight. Even though their neuroscientist doesn’t seem to want to quit, the team needs to figure out how to get him back.
