Da-hae, fearing a prophecy about Gwi-ju's death tied to her, hatches a risky plan with her uncle Noh Hyeong-Tae (Choi Kwang-rok). They orchestrate a fake car accident to prevent Gwi-ju from using his time travel abilities again.

I-na notices inconsistencies in the story and uncovers her uncle's involvement. This, coupled with her grandmother's suspicious behavior regarding the accident, leads I-na to confront Da-hae's uncle.

He reveals the shocking truth that Da-hae's own mother, motivated by fear of a past secret being exposed, orchestrated the entire plan to claim insurance money.

The episode culminates in a bittersweet reunion. Guided by Da-hae's uncle, Gwi-ju finds her alive and well in a remote beach town. Relief washes over them, but a shadow of the prophecy still looms.

Da-hae, wrestling with guilt, pleads with Gwi-ju to stay away, fearing she'll be the cause of his death. Gwi-ju, however, counters by expressing his love and how Da-hae brought him back to life. They both confess their feelings, choosing to be together despite the potential danger.
