Perfect Family episode 6 recap: Why is Jin-hyeok arrested?
The fifth episode of Perfect Family starts with Sun-hui's grandmother's butler trying to ask Jin-hyeok to make things right and requesting him to look out for cars. However, it is later revealed that it is Jin-hyeok dreaming in his car.
Sun-hui searches for information about the burn and kidnapping case, but her mother, Eun-ja, enters the room. Sun-hui tells Eun-ja that she heard some noise outside her room. As Eun-ja goes to check, she deletes the page on her computer. But Eun-ja sees it through the reflection on the window. Meanwhile, Hyun-woo arrives, worried about Sun-hui, but Eun-ja persuades him to leave.
Sun-hui texts him, saying she will call when she leaves the house. She overhears her parents arguing. She finds peanut powder in the grocery bag and is surprised. While crossing their room, she hears Eun-ja talking about killing someone.
Sun-hui then receives a text from Hyun-woo, informing her that he went to the police to report that Su-yeon had texted her, but he found out that Su-yeon's phone had been switched off. Just then, Eun-ja enters Sun-hui's room with porridge.
Sun-hui, now scared, pushes Eun-ja's hand away, spilling the porridge, and runs away from the house. She calls Hyun-woo, crying, and he decides to come to her. Suddenly, Sun-hui feels like someone is following her. As she stands near a zebra crossing, someone pushes her in front of a car.
Hyun-woo hears an ambulance and becomes worried. Out of nowhere, Jin-hyeok appears with an umbrella for him. He also receives a call, and the two rush to the hospital to find Sun-hui unconscious. As the nurse tries to take a report, Eun-ja mentions that Sun-hui is severely allergic to peanuts.
Sun-hui regains consciousness after having a nightmare about Eun-ja trying to strangle her. Hyun-woo and Eun-ja rush into the room, and Hyun-woo leaves to call the doctor. Meanwhile, Detective Dong-ho and Detective Lee interrogate Jin-hyeok. They show him the dashcam recording of the car involved in the accident and speculate that someone pushed her in front of it.
As the Perfect Family episode progresses, Hyun-woo informs them that Sun-hui has regained consciousness. However, when they reach the room, Sun-hui is having a nervous fit. She tells Hyun-woo that her parents are trying to kill her. The detectives try to gather more information, but she falls unconscious again.
Sun-hui dreams of Su-yeon teaching the younger Sun-hui how to light a matchstick. Su-yeon provokes her against her parents and lights herself on fire. Hyun-woo calls a number, seemingly speaking to Su-yeon, asking if she was the one who pushed Sun-hui.
Sun-hui wakes up to find Eun-ja sleeping by her bedside, waiting for her to wake up. As Eun-ja goes to call the doctor, Sun-hui calls Hyeong-min and asks for help. Detective Dong-ho tries a different approach to catch Jin-hyeok. He hires someone to crash into Jin-hyeok's parked car and then accesses the dashcam footage while the car is being repaired.
As they are about to leave, Jin-hook asks Sun-hui why she thought they were trying to kill her. As they reach home after an awkward and silent drive, the police arrive and arrest Jin-hyeok as a suspect in Su-yeon's murder. The fifth episode of Perfect Family ends with a flashback of Sun-hui and Jin-hyeok playing in the park.
The next episode of Perfect Family is scheduled to be released on 4 September.
