The thriller K-drama starts with Cheon Seo Jin (Kim So Yeon), who made a grand comeback as the Cheong-A Arts School director.
After the retired primadonna took Oh Yoo Hee's stake at the top-tier school, it prompted her to receive the prestigious title.

While slowly recovering at the hospital, Seo Jin visited her daughter to tell her that she got accepted to Seoul National University, which was her dream school.
Unfortunately, she seems unmoved despite the great news. Ha Eun Byeol revealed to her mom that she saw her push Yoon Hee off the cliff and was worried that the incident might haunt her forever.
During their intense conversation, she burst into tears and pointed out how Yoon Hee and Bae Rona (Kim Hyun Soo) saved her from her personal tutor Jin Bun Hong (Ahn Yun Hong), who tried to abduct her.
However, Cheon Seo Jin, being the mother that would do anything to her daughter, explained that she did it because of her.
Shim Su Ryeon Found Out the Clues Left by Oh Yoon Hee
While organizing Yoon Hee's belongings, Ro Na showed her some of the things that her mother was working on before she died--this includes a board with photos of Joo Dan Tae, Yoo Dong Pil (Park Ho San), and some personalities at the Hera Palace.
Shim Su Ryeon was surprised and baffled as to what she was trying to uncover.
After some digging, she learned that the late Yoon Hee visited the obstetrics and gynecology clinic where Min Seol-ah and Joo Hye In were swapped.
There, Su Ryeon figured out that Yoon Hee knew about her giving birth to twins and that Yoo Dong Pil murdered Joo Hye-in's biological mother.
Kang Ma Ri Found an Alliance through Shim Su Ryeon
"Penthouse 3" episode 6 unravels Yoo Dong Pil's secret association with Joo Dan Tae.
It came after her wife, Kang Ma Ri (Shin Eun Kyung), learned that the Hera Palace chairman threatened his husband by framing him to Yoon Hee's death.
She revealed this information to Shim Su Ryeon and vowed to help her expose Joo Dan Tae.
Logan Lee was Alive
Possibly one of the most shocking scenes on "Penthouse 3" episode 6 was the association of Baek Joon Ki (Ohn Joo Wan) with Cheon Seo Jin.
It turned out that she was the one who brought him to South Korea with a promise of proving him financially.
"I will let you gamble for the rest of your life. If you lied to Logan and came to Korea, you shouldn't have to worry about money," she told Joon Ki.
The latest episode also showed how the retired primadonna and Joon Ki tricked Joo Dan Tae into thinking that Logan Lee (Park Eun Seok) died in the car explosion.
With the help of Secretary Do (Kim Do Hyun), they got the wounded body of Logan Lee and instructed his former husband Ha Yoon Chul (Yoon Jong Hoon) to treat the patient.
At the time, Yoon Chul had no idea who he was treating and even had no clue who was instructing him to do such things.
Interestingly, the retired primadonna hid her identity from Ha Yoon Chul and mentioned, "You must save Logan somehow. That's why I took you out of the cell."
After the phone call, this is when he realized that the patient was Logan Lee and he was alive.
