When analyzing the four options, it helps to recall the central tactic the Kim family employs to remove Moon-gwang without directly confronting her.
Option 1: 'They push her down a flight of stairs' — This is not what happens in the plan. The Kims avoid a violent confrontation in public spaces and instead rely on deception tied to a health scare, so this option mischaracterizes the method and tone of the scheme.
Option 2: 'They use her peach allergy to convince the Parks she has tuberculosis' — This option aligns with the key strategic move in the film: exploiting Moon-gwang’s potential susceptibility to a health scare (tuberculosis) and an identifiable clue (peach allergy) to trigger the Parks’ concern and lead to her removal. The rationale is designed to appear plausible and medically concerning to the Parks, making the separation seem necessary and justified in their eyes.
Option 3: 'They say she has been stealing' — Accusations of theft would create a direct workplace conflict and would not be the discreet, health-based rationalization used to remove her quietly. The Parks’ trust is preserved, while Moon-gwang is removed under the guise of illness, not crime.
Option 4: 'They pay her off to quit' — Financially nudging Moon-gwang out could work in some contexts, but the specific plot point in Parasite hinges on spreading a medical concern (tuberculosis) tied to her peach allergy to justify her departure to the Parks. This choice ignores the medical scare angle that drives the Parks’ decision.
In summary, option 2 matches the established sequence and logic used by the Kim family: they leverage Moon-gwang’s peach allergy as part of a ruse to convince the Parks that she has tuberculosis, thereby prompting her to leave without direct confrontation. The other options describe different, less plausible or unsupported methods that do not reflect the actual plan used in the story.
