While Akira and Rin wait for Keisuke to emerge from his orientation into the Igura, the man with the eyepatch, Takeru, driven insane by his usage of 50 per cent Line, massacres several Igura entrants. Keisuke is shocked by the brutality and wonders if he is cut out for this. Rin searches for Motomi, but instead finds other murdered informants in Takeru's wake. Meanwhile, Emma - the one-armed woman who sent Akira on his infiltration mission into Toshima - and her spy Gwen speak over the phone about the mysterious 50 per cent Line: where did it come from and who is producing it? Shiki questions Akira about his past, but Akira has no idea what he's talking about. On the other hand, Shiki does seem to know about Akira's connection with the military, recognizing the transmitter that Akira carries. Keisuke hopelessly wanders the streets. At the depths of his despair, he stumbles and apparently finds a corpse, clutching some Line. Keisuke is tormented by the idea that Akira regards him with contempt. The ending is ambiguous as to what Keisuke will do next.
