The only tug-of-war games we see are those for Team Deok-su and Team Gi-hun.
We understand why he would agree to the harvesting in exchange for information on the upcoming games, but why are the guards working with him? Why would they trade information? (Not that I enjoyed them I can’t even watch medical shows with all the surgeries.) It doesn’t seem like his actions are sanctioned by the Front Man since a guard erases the maze detour from the cameras.

The addition of the doctor’s storyline adds another layer of intrigue, plus some gnarly organ-harvesting to boot. It especially sucks that she gave him some after his earlier crudeness. Why would he protect the doctor (111) before confirming that information?) After my first watch, I didn’t realize that the sex and betrayal happen in the same episode, but there’s literally less than 10 minutes of air time between them. Deok-su goes along in the moment, but he knows that he’ll have to dump her to make an all-male tug-of-war team before they smash. Mi-nyeo wants Deok-su to guarantee that he has her back and uses the afterglow of their bathroom stall sex and name exchange to cement an alliance. Compassionate Gi-hun wants to build genuine trust between the members, even getting Sae-byeok to open up a bit. For both Gi-hun and Mi-nyeo, exchanging names means building trust. We come to learn more of the characters’ names in two very different scenes, one in the open dorm and another in a bathroom stall. So after holding her own for a while in the chaos, she joins Gi-hun’s group. It’s because you have nothing else to lean on.” While Sae-byeok isn’t going down easily, her inability to trust anyone leaves her vulnerable when everyone else has teamed up. He even gives a neat line that sums up his thinking: “You don’t trust people because they’re trustworthy.
He offers Sae-byeok a place on his team not because she will be a strategic ally (even though, duh, she will), but because Deok-su will go after her. Meanwhile, Gi-hun is still operating with compassion.

When he kills 271 and realizes that he stands to benefit from having one less player around, Deok-su and his team go into full predator mode, taking out as many players as they can. In that way, Deok-su is a perfect player for the game: He adopts childish tactics. He cut the line on the very first day, he gathered a group of goons, and his introduction was beating up Sae-byeok in front of everyone. After all, intimidation is always part of gangster Deok-su’s act. When that becomes known, a massacre begins once the lights go out.īefore player 271 dies, the line-cutting just seemed like an instance of playground bullying. But there are no breaks, and episode four reveals that no matter how a player dies - on the game floor or in the dorm, by a guard’s gun or a player’s hands - their death counts toward the cash total. So far, while the players have been in the massive dorm, they’ve gotten a break from the fear of being killed. It almost serves as a reality check, cutting through any sense of complacency that may grow in the off-hours.
A spike starts to fall on jade but Aqua pushes him out of the way, killing himself in the process. In the next room Rose, Aqua, and Jade are presented with two spring-loaded spikes and a spring to elevate them to the next platform. The last death in the room is Sapphire, killed by the previously mentioned gun. The remaining six sticks reach a room with spikes and a large gun, where Alizarin is crushed between an elevator and a row of spikes, followed shortly after by a spike falling on Lilac.
The sticks traverse a parkour section, two to elevators, in the process, two sticks, Ube, and Viridian fall into a small room, where they are promptly crushed by a wall. The maze starts with eight "sticks" on two platforms, the sticks being Alizarin, Sapphire, Rose, Lilac, Aqua, Jade, Viridian, and Ube. The first of twelve of Willimation's Stick Death Maze Series.
