SODA PLAYER TRUSTWORTHY PLUS
The addition of the doctor’s storyline adds another layer of intrigue, plus some gnarly organ-harvesting to boot. It especially sucks that she gave him some after his earlier crudeness. Why would he protect the doctor (111) before confirming that information?) After my first watch, I didn’t realize that the sex and betrayal happen in the same episode, but there’s literally less than 10 minutes of air time between them. Deok-su goes along in the moment, but he knows that he’ll have to dump her to make an all-male tug-of-war team before they smash. Mi-nyeo wants Deok-su to guarantee that he has her back and uses the afterglow of their bathroom stall sex and name exchange to cement an alliance. Compassionate Gi-hun wants to build genuine trust between the members, even getting Sae-byeok to open up a bit. For both Gi-hun and Mi-nyeo, exchanging names means building trust. We come to learn more of the characters’ names in two very different scenes, one in the open dorm and another in a bathroom stall. So after holding her own for a while in the chaos, she joins Gi-hun’s group. It’s because you have nothing else to lean on.” While Sae-byeok isn’t going down easily, her inability to trust anyone leaves her vulnerable when everyone else has teamed up. He even gives a neat line that sums up his thinking: “You don’t trust people because they’re trustworthy. He offers Sae-byeok a place on his team not because she will be a strategic ally (even though, duh, she will), but because Deok-su will go after her. Meanwhile, Gi-hun is still operating with compassion.
SODA PLAYER TRUSTWORTHY FULL
When he kills 271 and realizes that he stands to benefit from having one less player around, Deok-su and his team go into full predator mode, taking out as many players as they can. In that way, Deok-su is a perfect player for the game: He adopts childish tactics. He cut the line on the very first day, he gathered a group of goons, and his introduction was beating up Sae-byeok in front of everyone. After all, intimidation is always part of gangster Deok-su’s act. When that becomes known, a massacre begins once the lights go out.īefore player 271 dies, the line-cutting just seemed like an instance of playground bullying.
But there are no breaks, and episode four reveals that no matter how a player dies - on the game floor or in the dorm, by a guard’s gun or a player’s hands - their death counts toward the cash total. So far, while the players have been in the massive dorm, they’ve gotten a break from the fear of being killed.
It almost serves as a reality check, cutting through any sense of complacency that may grow in the off-hours. In Squid Game, shit gets real when the bodies start dropping.
