Squid Game – S3 – The Starry Night
No-eul kills the doctor after Gyeong-seok recovers. In the game’s maze, Hyun-ju, Geum-ja, and Jun-hee team up. Myung-gi reluctantly partners with Nam-gyu and helps kill several hiders, realizing that narrowing down other attackers’ targets will also eliminate them, thus increasing the prize pool. Elsewhere, Seon-nyeo is betrayed by Player 100, Jeong-dae, and killed by Min-su, who hallucinates Se-mi under the influence of Thanos’ drugs that Nam-gyu dropped. Jun-hee injures her ankle and goes into labor while Hyun-ju kills several attackers attacking them. Geum-ja helps Jun-hee deliver her baby, but Hyun-ju is later killed by Myung-gi just as she discovers a way out; overcome with guilt, at the sight of Jun-hee and the newborn, Myung-gi walks away. Meanwhile, a vengeful Gi-hun, a tagger, pursues Dae-ho, who confesses to having lied about his military past and betrayed the rebellion out of fear. Enraged, Gi-hun strangles him to death. Moments before the game ends, Yong-sik, having failed to eliminate any hiders, nearly kills Jun-hee, forcing Geum-ja to intervene and stab him, after which the guards shoot him. Blaming himself for the deaths of the rebels, Gi-hun attempts suicide but is stopped by guards.
