Lady Yoon sent an assassinator to get rid of In-woo, who had betrayed Kang Joo-seon (Cho Seong-ha). Despite the serious injury, In-woo went to see Hong Joowon (Seo Kang-joon) while he hid the injury. In-woo declared he would keep fighting until the end to expel his father. In-woo said, "Thank you for having been my friend and my family" as if he would someone who would die soon.

At the same time, Joo-seon figured it out that the situation was messed up because of Kim Ja-seom (Jo Min-ki). Kim Ja-seom raised his voice to the general from Qing that Kang Joo-seon and an administrator of Qing authority had communicated secretly and they are traitors to both countries. At this, the general contacted King Hyo-jong (Lee Tae-ri) confidentially to investigate the situation.

Joo-seon's plan to dethrone King Hyo-jong by bribing a Qing officer defaulted. As this happened, while leading his private soldiers, he went to King Hyo-jong. Joo-won told him to put down the sword and Joo-seon ended up firing a gun towards him.

In-woo, who arrived there at the moment, threw his body and was shot in place of Joo-won. Joo-seon was completely lost as his son was shot. Also Jeongmyeong, who arrived at the place later, fell down in shock. Joo-seon's endless ambition towards power led his son to the irrevocable tragedy after all.

While the utmost evil of "Splendid Politics", Joo-seon was arrested, how Lady Soyong Jo (Kim Min-seo) would face her final moment is drawing attention. "Splendid Politics" has one more episode to wrap up its long journey.
