The sinking will be perceived through Logryeon's eyes, As such moments from the movie or from the real story will be absent. We are around midnight and the order to uncover the boats and get ready passengers and crew on deck has just been given...

Logan is brought to a room on the E floor. He doesn't oppose any resistance as he is being handcuffed to a pole. He cannot forget Su-Ryeon's last glance and his mind is racing with thoughts."Am I getting ahead of myself ? it was as if she was telling me : I trust you...so trust me too"

A sailor barges in the room, calling for the officer.

"Sir...there is a big mob at the Second's class pursuer office"

Mr. Jo, who is standing quietly in the corner of the room, takes a step forward.

- "Please go...I will watch him in your stead"

- "Alright..."

The man gives the key to Mr. Jo and gets out in a hurry. Mr. Joo gets seated, his gaze impassive as it lands on his captive. Logan turns his head toward the porthole.

"Cannot expect any help from here I guess" he wonders.


Back to Su-Ryeon, she is following Dantae quietly as they head toward the grand staircase on the A deck.

They meet with her aunt once they reach the area.

- "My aunt...where is Oh Yoonhee ?"

- "Oh...our maid ? I asked her to go turn back on the heaters and get some tea ready when we return of course...where do you expect her to be exactly ?" her aunt answers, her tone indifferent.

- "But..."

Dantae grabs her hand, interrupting her middle sentence.

"We should go now, who cares, she will find her way if something happen"

Su-Ryeon's group step outside and she can hear music in the distance. The band was probably asked to play outside in an attempt to pacify the passengers.

Su-Ryeon, Dan Tae and Ok-Gyo place themselves in line in front of a boat. Shortly after, a distress flare illuminates the sky briefly with all eyes lifted to follow the gleam of light She spots the ship-builder Thomas Andrews when she lowers her gaze and she notices his odd behavior instantly.

His expression absent, he is walking on the deck and doesn't acknowledge her when he passes in front of her. He almost jumps when she grabs his arm to stop him.

"Mr Andrews, I saw the iceberg, and I see it in your eyes, please tell me the truth"

Mr. Andrews hesitates before answering. He pulls her slightly apart, talking in a low voice.

- "The ship will sink..." Su-Ryeon takes time to register what she just heard.

-"You're certain ?" she asks cautiously.

-"In an hour or so...everything here will be at the bottom of the ocean...Please tell only who you must. I don't want to cause a panic...And get to a boat quickly, don't wait, you remember what I told you about the boats, right ?"

-"Yes, I understand"

Mr. Andrews smiles sadly at her and turns back. Su-Ryeon goes back to her group in a daze.

"What should I do ? what if...they don't free him in time ?" she thinks, her mind in turmoil.



Mr Jo stands up and starts approaching Logan.

"You know... I believe that this ship can indeed sink..."
