Young-ok leads the charge into Sae-bom and Yi-hyun's place with a shame-faced Jung-kook in tow. Joo-hyung sneaks off and starts rifling through their things, looking for the Next pills Yi-hyun confiscated. He tells Yi-hyun he wants them so he doesn't die if he gets bitten – the pills kept his wife alive after having her head bashed in, after all.

Joo-hyung wonders if Seo-yoon is safe here and makes the terrifying suggestion that he could take care of her. Apparently, he likes kids. Thankfully, no one tries to forcibly take Seo-yoon away.

After getting her way, Young-ok joins everyone else waiting anxiously in the hall. Sae-bom grows increasingly angry and marches out into the hall. She suggests everyone have their little meeting about her and Yi-hyun's fate at Young-ok's place, earning a glare from Young-ok.

Yi-hyun smooths things over and leads Sae-bom back inside. Jung-kook follows and asks Sae-bom whether she truly doesn't feel sick. Sae-bom just says she's disappointed in him.

Sae-bom's little revenge worked and everyone decides the best place to meet is Young-ok's, so she has no choice but to let them in. Outside 501, Yi-hyun assures Jung-kook that Sae-bom is fine and warns him not to trust the others.

Inside Young-ok's, everyone is shocked at how bare the apartment is. While they discuss kicking out Yi-hyun and Sae-bom and taking their supplies, Andrew slips out to go warn the couple. Sae-bom tells Yi-hyun to stay with Seo-yoon and runs upstairs with her apple-peeling knife still in hand.

She arrives as Jung-kook tries to convince everyone to let them stay. Things escalate when Joo-hyung tries to swipe Jung-kook's gun. Sae-bom kicks Joo-hyung to the ground, and then Jung-kook pulls the gun on her. Sae-bom easily grabs it from him and trains it on Joo-hyung.

He dares her to shoot but cowers when she actually pulls the trigger. He's so scared he pees himself, but Sae-bom explains the first round is always blank in a cop's gun. She then suggests a test to see who's truly infected.

Anyone infected will turn when there's blood, so she holds up her knife and prepares to cut her hand. Yi-hyun arrives and grabs the knife, cutting his own hand instead. Sae-bom takes off her sweatshirt to try to wrap the wound, but Yi-hyun shakes her off. He walks up to everyone in turn as his blood runs.

They all seem fine, albeit grossed out. But then Bo-ram turns. Huh. Sae-bom leaps into action, using her sweatshirt to drag Bo-ram away from Yi-hyun. While everyone else screams and cowers, Sae-bom and Yi-hyun wrestle Bo-ram to the ground and subdue her.

After they take Bo-ram to the gym office, Sae-bom tells Jung-kook to stand guard and drags Yi-hyun out to treat his hand; she's worried it'll get infected. Bo-ram comes to her senses, so Yi-hyun tells Sae-bom to check on her. Sae-bom reluctantly goes after giving Yi-hyun strict instructions to go home and treat his cut. He agrees, and then goes up to Young-ok's where everyone is still gathered.

In the gym office, Bo-ram admits she got infected back at the supermarket. She thanks Sae-bom for subduing her back there and not letting her bite anyone. Before she leaves, Sae-bom asks if Bo-ram threw out that bloodstained towel, but she says it wasn't her.

Jung-kook and Bo-ram hear sounds coming from the driving range where Soo-min is kept. Woo-chang is currently there trying to convince Soo-min to say Sae-bom is infected. He plays all tough until Sae-bom shows up, and then he's falling all over himself to leave.

When everyone leaves Young-ok's, only So-yoon stops to politely say goodbye to Yi-hyun and acknowledge his hard work. Woo-chang arrives home and is startled to see the blood in his apartment. He takes a swig of water (uh-oh), and then he begins cleaning the blood ... with his tongue (bleh). He pulls himself together when Young-ok comes in the room.
