What happened in Episode 4 of Queen Mantis?
Episode 4 of Queen Mantis was as thrilling as it could get. In the episode, through flashback, we learn who Yi-shin’s third victim was and why she killed him. Yi-shin saw him beating his wife outside their house when Jung-ho stopped him.
He was then shown to force his wife’s head beneath water as she pleaded to him to stop. Later, he is seen dead due to drowning in a public bath. Furthermore, Soo-yeol’s team has also begun to speculate on how he finds the right clues at the right time, which results in Na-hee going to see Gu-wan, who attacks her and escapes from the hospital.
Jung-yeon’s digging into Soo-yeol’s past brings Park Min-jae into their life. After looking into it, Soo-yeol learns that Min-jae had been stalking him and Jung-yeon. He also discovers dioramas of all the murder sites in his hideout, which results in his arrest.
While they question him to find out about his whereabouts during the murders, Soo-yeol is informed by Na-hee about Gu-wan’s escape. At the end of the episode, Yi-shin escapes from her prison house while Gu-wan is killed by a speeding car.
In the next episode, Soo-yeol will find himself in a messier situation, as in the preview, it is hinted that Yi-shin might make a stop at his house and meet Jung-yeon.
