Chikage plans to use the Yellow Scarves to smoke out the members of the Dollars who attacked Toramaru in Saitama. To settle the confusion, Chikage challenges Masaomi to a fight, promising to be Masaomi's bodyguard if he loses. In the cafe, Kasane explains to Anri and Haruna how replication works with Saika.
