Series Recap and Episode 4 Recap
The series begins with the mysterious death of a college student named Puifai at a party. The case brings together two very different police officers: the newly transferred, by-the-book Inspector Kamin and the more seasoned, instinct-driven Captain Jet (also referred to as Jade).
Their investigation reveals that Puifai’s death was caused by poisoning. They soon discover that her close friends, a group calling themselves “the Avengers,” are being targeted by a killer using a sinister game of truth-or-dare. Each dare carries a lethal consequence.
By Episode 4, the professional tension between Kamin and Jet has become intertwined with a growing personal attraction as they work closely under pressure. The killer remains at large, and another murder within the friend group provides a dangerous new clue for the detectives to pursue. Episode 5 is expected to raise the stakes further as the detectives race to stop the next deadly challenge.
