Jung Yi-shin, played by Go Hyun-jung, successfully escapes.
In the episode aired on the 13th of SBS's Friday-Saturday drama 'Mantis: The Murderer's Outing', Jung Yi-shin, portrayed by Go Hyun-jung, manages to escape and seeks out Lee Jung-yeon, the wife of her son Cha Soo-yeol, played by Jang Dong-yoon.
During the episode, Cha Soo-yeol sternly warns Jung Yi-shin, saying, "Do you kill if you don't like someone or feel uncomfortable? I will protect my family. I won't say it nicely again." In response, Jung Yi-shin provocatively counters, "Lee Jung-yeon? Even if my existence is revealed, will she stay by your side?"
Additionally, Cha Soo-yeol, through Choi Joong-ho (played by Jo Sung-ha), uncovers information related to Seo Goo-wan (played by Park Min-jae), a prime suspect in a series of murders, and confronts him in a factory, leading to a physical altercation. Park Min-jae taunts Cha Soo-yeol, saying, "I'm more curious about the son of the mantis than the mantis itself," escalating the tension between them.
Ultimately, Jung Yi-shin deceives the police and successfully escapes. She drugs the officers, causing them to lose consciousness, then dons their uniform and shoes to flee the scene. She immediately seeks out Lee Jung-yeon, her daughter-in-law, greeting her with a simple "Hello," heightening the drama's tension.
Meanwhile, 'Mantis: The Murderer's Outing' is a high-intensity crime thriller depicting the joint investigation between a serial killer mother and her detective son.
