Episode 2: Halloween Party | Squid Game
Episode 2 of Squid Game follows Kang No-Eul (Park Gyu-yong) who is a struggling woman trying to make money to find her lost baby, whom she left in North-Korea while she was fleeing the country. Her story was really surprising and I understand why the creators are keeping her a secret. She is forming an emotional bond with a little girl at the amusement park, where she works.This girl is sick and her father is doing everything possible to make money for his child's treatment. In the end of the episode it is seen that No-Eul is given an invitation to the Squid Game.

Story of the Front-Man
In season one we could see that the Front Man is the big brother of the undercover agent Hwang Jun-ho (Wi Ha-joon), who now is demoted to a traffic-agent. He gives us an insight in the life story of his (step) big brother (The Front Man) and why he may seem heartless. Jun-ho teams up with Seong Gi-hun to find the island where he got shot and where the games are being held. He does not share with Gi-hun that the Front Man is his big brother. More surprisingly Gi-hun is not just playing Batman with his money and motel, he also has collected an arsenal of wapens and ammo for the big fight. He just needs a few soldiers to back up his plan to finds the Squid Game.

Plan A
Gi-hun teams up with Jun-ho and the army they have collected with the help of the right hand of his creditor (who is taking vengeance for his boss). With the help of this team he makes a move to the Front Man who he will meet on Halloween Night in the club. Eventually in the club things don't go as planed. It makes you wonder, planning might not be Gi-hun's strong skill. He did got to meet the Front Man, just not the way he wished. In the end Gi-hun get's a choice which he accepts to make an end to the games. He got a Plan B!

Games
We don't see games in this episode. We do see a lot of foundations being laid for the backstory to keep the series going. It is not a dull episode, it is really trilling. The story of No-Eul was unexpected. She received an unexpected invitation from Squid Game. The question is in which capacity will she participate? I will not answer this question because I want you to be as shocked as me.
What would you choose?
Be a Player or a Soldier?
