'The Girl Who Sees Smells' episode 12 Recap

"Choi Eun Sul! Don't I know you?" Gwon Jae Hee (Nam Goong Min) looks Oh Cho Rim (Shin Se Kyung) dead straight in the eyes. 

"Haven't you ever seen me, have you?" his fingers closed around her head. 

Cho Rim covers her mouths with her hands making her identity have to remain as unnoticed as possible. She notices Choi Mu Gak (Park Yoo Chun) has arrived on the scene because of his smell. The witness takes advantage of blackout for a moment and escapes from the terrible murderer.

After the light goes on, the chef comes out the door to follow the run-away girl but he is knocked cold by the detective when hit from behind with the pistol butt. The serial victim's brother aims the gun at the man in a swoon.

"Don't shoot him, don't shoot. Please! You will be only another murderer." Cho Rim detains him by the sleeve. Mu Gak seems to experiences a mixed feeling of grief and anger. 

Cho Rim walked into the house again to find her father faints because of shock and Mu Gak transfers her to a hospital. The timely arrival of Detective Ki (Jo Hee Bong) and Detective Yeh (Choi Tae Joon) press hard upon the prime suspect just woken where Oh Jae Pyo (Jeong In Ki) is. 

The chef stops them entering the house, "He falls asleep because of wine drank with me. I will take him out." Cho Rim's father comes down from stairs when Gwon Jae Hee hides a disposable syringe.  

The serial killer follows the former detective along without his seeing the chef into his house. 

"Did he try to kill me? He called me Choi Eun Sul. Gwon Jae Hee has face blindness and he didn't recognize my face because I didn't make any sound. I already know my real name is Choi Eun Sul and I am the witness of the barcode murder. I am so so sorry about your sister died because of me." she sheds tears.

"It's not your fault." he comforts her.

Yeum Mi (Yoon Jin Seo) asks Jae Pyo to live apart with his daughter for a while. The witness arrived at home is shocked at the rooms in a mess. Cho Rim notices that her photo has disappeared and Mu Gak takes her his home for her safety. 

Jae Hee is filled with fury as he doesn't recognize the face in the picture. He marks his own symbol down on the reverse side of it.

There is still no new development in the murder due to the criminal's hole proof alibi. Cho Rim offers detectives to take the photo back for herself saying she is the only person without triggering any suspicion from the chef. On the day of recording Golden Recipe at his house, she puts up a hidden camera in his study. Cho Rim comes close to incur suspicion but she saves her neck pretending she went down the library to change a pair of pantyhose. She drops her purse on purpose to make a chance to enter the house for retrieving the camera.  

Mu Gak asks, "I'd like to go back to Jeju-do as an aquarist when I complete my tasks. Will you go with me?"

"Please take me when you visit your sister. I'd like to say that I'm really sorry." she sheds big drops of tears. Mu Gak holds her tight in his arms.

Cho Rim switches the photo inside Jae Hee's wallet while the chef is busy cooking before he goes to meet a private detective agency to find the witness. Jae Hee hands his house key to Cho Rim without a doubt and Cho Rim heads to the house to retrieve the camera without knowing that she left his phone behind in the restaurant. 

Meanwhile, Jae Hee gets the phone from the private agent about many detectives around the appointment place. He takes the picture out of the wallet. He has no sooner the car turn around than he checks there is no mark on the back. Jae Hee arrived at home before Cho Rim looks everywhere in the study. Mu Gak in a surveillance car around the house is shocked at him unexpectedly appearing on a monitor. He tries to call the girlfriend in danger but she never answers.  

"What? What are you so curious about?" Jae Hee finally detects the hidden camera. Mu Gak hurries on to the murderer's house to save Cho Rim descending into the study after she took her purse in the bathroom. 

When the elevator door is open, he makes a creepily smiled at the girl who stands agape with surprise.
