Pyramid Game Episode 5: Bona makes sure that no one lands in rank F
Episode 5 of Pyramid Game begins right where episode 4 ended, Sung Soo-Ji (Bona) asking Im Ye-Lim (Kang Na-Eon) to join her team. Thereafter, the new episode shows that one of the students in Sung Soo-Ji’s class sends some shocking messages to all her classmates. She says that it has become quite hard for her to survive in the school as Sung Soo-Ji has been bullying her. That girl then puts on a show by cutting her wrist in the classroom. Baek Ha-Rin (Jang Da-A) is the mastermind behind it. She again manipulated the girl to frame Sung Soo-Ji.
In the meantime, a parent-teacher meeting is taking place in the school, where Sung Soo-Ji’s father is present. One of the teachers of their class tells him that his daughter has become a victim of school violence. However, the principal, along with the other teachers, takes control of the situation. They persuade Soo-Ji’s father to believe that nothing of that sort is happening in their school.
Then, in Pyramid Game episode 5, Baek Ha-Rin uses her power and her family’s high position to play the game right in front of all the parents and teachers of the school. She also makes sure that the parents also participate in the game. She presents it as a form of just a game, mimicking social order. Even Soo-Ji’s father is deceived by her manipulation and accepts the game. Through voting, the majority of the students decide that Soo-Ji can’t vote in the 15th pyramid game after the girl ends up framing her.
later, when playing the 15th raking game, Soo-Ji makes sure that Baek Ha-Rin also can’t vote in the game. She takes Im Ye-Lim’s help to do so. Thus, the episode reveals that Im Ye-Lim has teamed up with her. With Im Ye-Lim’s influence in class and different strategies, Sung Soo-Ji and her team finally get rid of rank F. When the result of the 15th raking game comes out, the students see that no student has landed in grade F.
At the end of Pyramid Game episode 5, viewers learn that Baek Ha-Rin has started the game in the first place to keep Myung Ja-Eun (Ryu Da-In) always in Grade F. It seems like she wants to bully her forever. Sung Soo-Ji has also figured out the fact. Now, she has a purpose in the school. She wants Myung Ja-Eun never to land in Grade F. The episode ends with a flashback scene. In the scenes, a girl is lying on the floor amidst a fire in the school building.
