The Witch is Alive: Episode 4 (Drama Hangout)

Behold, your weekly Drama Hangout! We might not be covering this drama, but that doesn’t mean there shouldn’t be a place to talk about it, whether that’s squealing with excitement or piling on the analysis.

This thread is exclusively for this week’s episodes and anything prior, so let’s try to keep it as a place to chat about what’s aired — not spoil future plot points for unsuspecting eyes.

This week's episode made Ma-ri lose her temper and did the unforgiveable mistake: she sent her husband away! So now, the husband can file for divorce because she made him leave the house.

She's better off without him.

From the very beginning, the premise was three friends who will have one of three outcomes: divorce, motherhood, or death. The script's missing information at dramatic times is obvious that a twist will come up in the next episode. Early on, it seemed Ma-Ri would get divorced, Hee Soo would have the baby she wanted, and Jin-A die by the stalker Squirrel. But after this episode, anything can happen to anyone.

It was obvious that Jin A's husband was still alive. Finding him on a wilderness reality TV show was a unique script option. But in this week's theme that it is sometimes better not to KNOW the truth, I think this would have been a better choice for her. We still do not know why he left her.

The face palm problem with Hee Soo's current situation is magnified by the ridiculous facts that her in-laws did not know mother's house was sold? Who was looking after it for months when she was hospitalized? None of her children visited or cared for her. How did they think her bills were being paid? It was all about inheritance and blame. Again, Hee Soo deserves better.

As for Ma-Ri's backstory and how the husband's cheating began on a rainy night when Ma-Ri had a medical emergency . . . really tragic. It was not fully clear, but it seems Ma-Ri was having a miscarriage? But her husband rode off with Go-Eun for the night then feebly apologizes the next day in Ma-Ri's hospital room?! The divorce should have happened then and there, but maybe it was a surprise pregnancy long after their first child. Ma-Ri still has feelings for Nak Gu, even when she was rolling to get his phone. Yes, Nak Gu got grounds to file for divorce, but that does not mean he will get what he wants because his cheating is still the precursor cause of it.

For $50, the fortune teller can give you a dark web site to get revenge on cheating husbands? It worked well for the mysterious client. It seems too good to be true.

The show is still rolling along, even with the stories starting to go overboard (beyond belief). Again, this show was meant to show Lee Yu-ri crazy woman skills.

Yeah, that website seems a little too obvious. I wonder if it's actually a place to hire hitmen or if it's just a private anonymous rant board. Then again we're rolling in the crazy so why not?

Wow, okay, the twist of Hee-soo actively trying to get arrested is something I did not see coming! That's a pretty convoluted move so I'm wondering what her endgame is. Also, man are her in-laws terrible or what.

Speaking of which, I didn't think Ma-ri's husband could get worse but yikes. Abandoning your wife in the middle of a miscarriage to start an affair? If Ma-ri really does go the hitman route I couldn't blame her

Things have been getting a bit darker so I really loved the scenes with the friends together this week. They're so funny and I love the way they play off each other and go to each other for advice.
