She makes a shadow clone riding away on a hang glider, successfully misleading Kinnosuke. Two hours earlier, the news reports about recent murders by a criminal known as "Hollywood", whose nickname was earned as a result of wearing different monster costumes and makeup at each crime scene. Also, Kasuka Heiwajima has a television interview concerning his stoicism, something his manager Max Sandshelt complains about. Later, Celty finishes her physical examination for scientific research for the Nebula Corporation by Emilia Kishitani, who is the second wife of Shingen Kishitani and stepmother of Shinra Kishitani. Shingen appears on Emilia's tablet computer and tells Celty that she is effectively a part of the family. Celty is then paid one million yen for her cooperation. While thinking of what to buy for Shinra, Celty ends up being chased by Kinnosuke. In the present, Celty receives a call from Izaya Orihara, who is watching the live broadcast.

| At night in a park, Russian assassin Egor attacks a zombie by using a briefcase filled with cash that he grabs near Tom Tanaka. After the briefcase breaks, an enraged Shizuo Heiwajima uses a park bench as a baseball bat to launch Egor and the zombie out of the park. In the newly updated online chat room, Celty tells her friends that she lost her paycheck, prompting Izaya to send the group a link to a video of Max announcing that he will give ten million yen to anyone who reveals the identity of the Headless Rider. When Shinra returns to his apartment, he is sucked into Celty's depressing shadow cocoon, where Celty explains her current predicament. However, Celty leaves Shinra in the shadow cocoon when she receives a call for a job. Two days ago, Raira Academy has an opening ceremony, where Aoba Kuronuma approaches Mikado at the end of class. Aoba mentions that he is a member of the Dollars, suspecting that Mikado is one of the leaders. In a karaoke bar, Mikado and Anri ask Walker Yumasaki and Erika Karisawa to help give Aoba a tour of Ikebukuro. Anri then walks past Egor, and he is unwittingly cut by her demon blade Saika. Shingen tells Anri that he knows about Saika, giving his business card to her before she leaves. At Raira Academy, Mairu Orihara and Kururi Orihara are each bullied when their desks are vandalized with graffiti by Tsukiyama and her friends. While Mairu confronts Tsukiyama's friends, Aoba rats out Tsukiyama to the teacher. This leads Tsukiyama and her friends to interrogate Aoba after school, but Tsukiyama's bag catches on fire. Mairu later reveals to Aoba that Kururi put paint thinner in Tsukiyama's bag. To show their thanks and appreciation, Mairu and Kururi each proceed to kiss Aoba. Shortly after Shizuo sends Egor flying out of the park, Mairu and Kururi find Celty's paycheck under a parked car and encounter Egor in critical condition.

Kasuka finds her on the side of the road and drives her to his home, requesting a house call from Shinra. Hollywood is shown to be Ruri Hijiribe, a famous pop idol and makeup artist. As Shinra leaves, Kasuka questions Ruri if she is Hollywood. However, Ruri pounces on Kasuka and attempts to kill him, yet Kasuka shows no reaction. Meanwhile, Shinra goes to Russia Sushi to treat the wounds of Egor. Since Egor cannot pay the fee of 200,000 yen for his treatment, Mairu and Kururi offer to cover the expense using Celty's paycheck. Shinra contact Shingen, who says that he hired Egor to assassinate a serial killer, to which Shinra already realizes her to be Ruri. Kasuka tells Ruri that he became an actor to express human emotions through his characters, in which Ruri realizes that Kasuka is a monster who wants to become human.

| Whilst being chased by Toramaru, Celty notices an arm hanging from the duffel bag that she is transporting, causing her to worry that a corpse is inside. This chase is also broadcast live on television. Members of the gang named Yellow Scarves, who are after the ten-million-yen reward for the whereabouts of Celty, harass Mikado, Anri and Aoba, only to be interrupted by the timely arrival of the Oriharu twins and the Van Gang, as they make their escape in their van. Celty, who is revealed to be transporting the duffel bag referred to her by Izaya, continues to be chased by Toramaru, until she calmly notices Kyohei's van. After Celty communicates with Kyohei about being chased, Kyohei informs her that his gang stirred up the same situation. While the Van Gang are advised to escape, Celty comes up with a plan to hold her ground against Toramaru in a tunnel. However, Celty is surprised when Egor emerges out the duffel bag under Saika's control while Ruri appears in her dullahan costume after seeing the chase on television. Egor and Ruri hold off Toramaru, allowing Celty to take off. Afterwards, Ruri is now under contract at talent agency Jack O'Lantern with Kasuka, because her old talent agency, Yodogiri Shining Corporation, closed down due to the disappearance of their CEO, Jinnai Yodogiri. It turns out that Mairu and Kururi were on a mission to meet personally Celty after learning that the paycheck belonged to her. As a favor for the payment of Egor's treatment, Denis, the chef and owner of Russia Sushi, came up with the idea to put Egor in a duffel bag to be transported for 800,000 yen. Shinra arrives at his apartment learning that Celty has an ambition for cooking, but since Mika Harima says that her fish would take overnight to prepare, Shinra suggests having a hot pot party at their apartment. In the online chat room, Izaya notices the others talking about the hot pot party, concerned that he was not invited, yet observing this as a way to enjoy his day off. Aoba tells his devious friends that they need to get rid of Izaya, but to keep Mairu and Kururi alive. | ||||||||||||

| At the hot pot party in Shinra and Celty's apartment, Mikado recalls his childhood with Masaomi Kida. One time, they sneaked out late at night to catch rhinoceros beetles. Masaomi was determined to catch one after a run-in with three bullies. Anri then recalls when she first befriended Mika during grade school. She was bullied by her female classmates, who thought that she was cheating on a test, until Mika came to rescue to her. During junior high school, Mika stood up against the bullying female classmates in order to protect Anri. Shizuo also recalls when he first met Tom during junior high school. Tom first suggested to Shizuo to let out his anger despite hating violence, as well as dye his brunette hair blond. After Shizuo later overheard some delinquent male classmates planning to beat up Tom, he took the initiative to beat them up and save Tom. Shizuo then dyed his hair blond and had a peaceful life until meeting Izaya. Kyouhei recalls when he met the rest of the members of the Van Gang, but Walker and Erika begin describing a butler and maid role-playing scenario.

| Namie watches a video recording on her tablet computer of Izaya, who explains that the human soul cannot be completely controlled, but rather slightly pushed. However, Namie sees this as meaningless, and nothing else matters in the world other than the love for her younger brother Seiji Yagiri. On Saturday, Chikage Rokujo, leader of Toramaru, walks outside an arcade after winning a plushie cat from a claw crane for some girls and stops a shoplifter from running away by kicking him in the face. In the restaurant Lottaria, Tom tells Shizuo that he notices Chikage outside, which Shizuo remembers their encounter the night before. On the previous night, Chikage picked a fight with Shizuo, who previously attacked some other members of Toramaru for tearing his shirt following their defeat in the tunnel. Shizuo easily knocked out Chikage before bringing him to Shinra in order to patch up his wounds. In the online chat room, Mikado opens up a private chat with Masaomi, who warns him not to wander around at night during the weekend and that the Dollars may be in danger. In the present, Shizuo notices Akane Awakusu happily peeking from outside the window of the Lottaria. When he goes outside, she uses a stun gun on him. However, he remains unfazed and takes the stun gun away from her, causing a scene around them. As the police chase after them, Akane clings onto Shizuo, who suggests to Tom that they hide out at Shinra's apartment. Chikage tells the members of Toramaru that he plans to revolt against the Dollars. Meanwhile, Celty takes up a job for Shiki to find Akane.

| Celty lies on the side of the road, while Vorona departs in disappointment. Meanwhile, Shizuo, Tom and Akane visit Shinra, who is waiting for Celty to return from her recent job. When Celty first accepted her job from Shiki to find Akane, Yodogiri hires Vorona and Russian assassin Slon at the karaoke bar to kidnap Akane. After picking on Shizuo for his strength, Shinra realizes that Akane has a fever. After school, Aoba tries to make plans with Mikado and Anri to meet the next day, but Mikado has his mind on Masaomi's warning. Mikado agrees to go with Anri and Aoba with the condition that they meet during the day. It is shown that Vorona used a wire attached to her belt and wrapped around a road sign while driving in order to detach Celty's helmet from her body. However, Celty emits a shadow trail on the back of Vorona's motorcycle. Slon has his truck ready for Vorona to park her motorcycle, as she believes that her encounter with Celty was almost too easy. In the online chat room, Mikado learns from Mairu that the Dollars were picking a fight with Toramaru in Saitama. Shinra puts Akane to sleep in the guest bedroom and tells Shizuo that she has an inflamed pharynx.

| Simon Brezhnev philosophizes that there are two Ivans among Russian men, one who is married to his job and one who has a screw loose in his head. As they attack the location of a group who took some of their weapons, Russian arms dealers Lingerin Douglanikov and Drakon discuss about Vorona and Slon, who once ran away from their mission. They both agree that Vorona is immature despite acquiring knowledge from books. Drakon, who is the distant father of Vorona, gave her various books during her childhood, which she learned facts of life and useless trivia to pass the time. When a burglar tried to apprehend Vorona, she applied her knowledge by pushing the burglar in an overflowing bathtub and using a hair dryer in order to shock him to death. Drakon came home later that night and finally embraced her. When Vorona was older, Simon and Denis taught her basic self-defense, leading her to join missions. In the present, Anri's doorbell rings, but it seems that no one is there. As Anri opens the door, Vorona uses a pair of loppers to break the door chain. Izaya tells Mikado that the most important thing for the Dollars is freedom, but points out that Mikado is conscientious about leaving the gang. While Slon is shocked to see Celty approaching his truck, Vorona is scared when Anri wields Saika. Vorona and Slon retreat in the truck while being chased by Celty. As Vorona shoots from an anti-materiel rifle while inside the truck aimed at Celty, the latter uses her wall of shadows to protect her from the blast, ending up blown back near Anri's apartment. Celty, confused as to why Anri was being targeted, offers Anri to stay at her place in the meantime. Simon also philosophizes that there are two Taros among Japanese men, one who is kind yet naive and one who uses such people. | ||||||||||||

| On Sunday, Aoba and his friends go to Mikado's apartment to discuss matters with the Dollars. Masaomi realizes that the logs of the online chat room up until yesterday are gone. When Akane wakes up, she tells Shinra that Izaya told her that Shizuo is a hitman who was going to kill her father and grandfather. In fact, the modified stun gun was given to her by Izaya. Keeping his cool, Shizuo assures Akane that it was just a big misunderstanding. However, once Shizuo makes it to Izaya's workplace, he is frustrated to see a notice of relocation on the door, though it was fake sign posted by Namie. Aoba and his friends take Mikado to an abandoned factory, where Vorona and Slon have a vantage point. Aoba says that he and his friends were the members of the Dollars responsible for attacking Toramaru in Saitama, before revealing that they also go by the color gang named the Blue Squares. Chikage discreetly follows Walker, who seems to be blacklisted at an art gallery, and ends up outside a girls' high school. However, Kyohei stands in Chikage's way. As an email is sent to the Dollars that Toramaru is beginning their revolt, Aoba demands Mikado to be the leader of the Blue Squares. Mikado tries not to smile when Aoba says that either war or surrender can be an order. Anri brings Akane to the subway station, as they wait for Mikado and Aoba to begin the tour. Masaomi is concerned why nobody from the online chat room has appeared recently. | ||||||||||||

Shizuo is being framed for taking out three members of the Awakusu Group, but he evades engaging in combat with the other members when he momentarily becomes surrounded. Impatient with Mikado making a decision, Aoba has his friends shut the doors of the abandoned factory. Shiki visits Shinra, who says that Shizuo recently came by with a short fuse and had a little girl in tow. Aoba, believing it was Izaya who gave the warning instead of Masaomi, plans to keep Mikado in the abandoned factory while meeting up with Anri. Celty, who was peeping behind a broken window, receives a call from Shinra, thus her cover is blown. Some members of Toramaru come to fight Aoba and his friends, prompting Aoba to defend Mikado and refer to him as the boss. Celty takes Mikado to meet with Anri and Akane, while the Blue Squares take care of Toramaru. Shiki's henchmen find Anri and Akane at the subway station before Mikado and Celty arrive. However, other members of Toramaru arrive as well and start a fight with Shiki's henchmen, allowing Mikado, Celty, Anri and Akane to escape, with Celty turning Shooter into a horse and phaeton.

Unable to face her parents again, Akane confined herself in her bedroom and read an online message board. She met up with Namie and Izaya at a restaurant to explain her current family situation before she decided to run away from home a month later. Izaya also convinced Akane that Shizuo was the most dangerous hitman in the city and may be targeting her family. In the present, Masaomi contacts Izaya, suspecting that his online alias was hacked by Izaya. When Masaomi inquires about Mikado's recent behavior, Izaya suggests for Masaomi to talk to Mikado himself. Chikage demands Kyohei to reveal the leader of the Dollars, but Kyohei says that the leader is irrelevant, comparing this gang to a swarm of locusts or a school of fish. The two agree to a fight outside Raira Academy Field No. 2, where students are playing kabaddi nearby. A female member of the Dollars catches sight of the fight and sends a message to the Dollars. Meanwhile, Izaya sends a message to the Dollars concerning Chikage's girlfriend Non with her female friends in a restaurant. In the abandoned factory, Aoba and the Blue Squares receive the message of the whereabouts of Kyohei and Chikage. Aoba discovers Celty's shadow trail on Vorona's tainted bike left behind and decides to follow it to its source. Shizuo runs to the observation deck and receives both messages.

Vorona attempts to stab Shizuo with her ballistic knife, but that sets him off with no effect on his body, as he hurls her motorcycle at her and chases after her. As she goes back to the truck, he notices that Akane is being held captive inside. He kicks a car repeatedly and uses it as a shield to get closer until he makes it inside the truck. Celty, who has been following behind, prevents Vorona from shooting Shizuo. Slon stops the truck, causing stray knives to descend, but Shizuo shields Akane from being hit. As Vorona and Slon drive off, Shizou jumps out of the truck with Akane in tow. Then, Celty creates a shadow web at an intersection to cushion their fall. Mikado catches up to Chikage and Non, admitting that he is the leader of the Dollars and that he is responsible for the current events. However, Chikage initially does not believe Mikado and advises him to live an ordinary life. Shiki is glad that Akane has returned to her father Mikiya Awakusu, who was responsible for framing Shizuo for the murders of the members of the Awakusu Group, who were actually spies. Mizuki Akabayashi and Shu Aozaki shoot Slon in the kneecaps and tranquilize Vorona during an ambush. It is revealed that Egor is business partners with the Awakusu Group.

Unbeknownst to Izaya, the caller walks up behind him and bumps into him, stabbing him in the stomach in the process.

Seiji called Shinra, who told him to go to the warehouse. Seiji then seemingly kisses Namie, causing her to run away in embarrassment. Before Seiji carries Mika on his back to leave the warehouse, Mika tells Seiji that Izaya no longer stores Celty's head in any of his three apartments. Later, Seiji mentions to Mika that he put two fingers over his lips when he leaned in to kiss Namie. | ||||||||||||

| In the restroom of a bar, Mizuki Akabayashi cracks down on three male drug dealers from selling drugs to two female customers. Akabayashi visits the bedroom of Akane Awakusu, who asks how she can be strong enough to kill someone. However, Akabayashi later has to tell Mikiya Awakusu that Akane wants to learn self-defense at a dojo called the Rakuei Gym. Mikiya informs Akabayashi that the drug dealers are from Raira University, and that their club logo is called Heaven's Slave, signified by their temporary tattoos. Six years ago, Akabayashi, a member of a crime syndicate at the time, was tasked to beat a business owner senseless. However, Akabayashi was attacked by Sayaka Sonohara under Saika's control. After Sayaka slashed Akabayashi's right eye, he overcame the curse by ripping it out and he confessed his feelings of love to her, despite her being married and having Anri as her daughter. The business owner turned out to be Sayaka's husband and Anri's father. Akabayashi and Sayaka decided to leave on friendly terms. In the present, Akabayashi passes by a closed down shop for sale and comes across Anri, asking her if she knows anything about the Dollars. Their conversation is cut short when Seiji arrives. Akabayashi meets with members of his former crime syndicate in an abandoned warehouse, but more Heaven's Slave members are looking to set him up; a Molotov cocktail is thrown inside to trap the members, causing a brawl between the members of Akabayshi's former syndicate and Heaven's Slave members, destroying the warehouse in the process. As Akabayashi leaves, one of his former cohorts exclaims that he must've been the one who killed their boss afterall. Five years ago, the boss of the crime syndicate convinced Anri's father to be hooked on drugs and to take out life insurance in order to pay his debt, which was used to buy the warehouse. Akabayashi allowed the boss to be murdered by a young assassin, whose sister has been in the hospital because of the drugs given to her by the boss. This flashback explains Akabayashi's aversion to drugs and drug dealers, and also reveals that he didn't personally kill his own boss but allowed him to be murdered due to his disagreeable actions. | ||||||||||||

Meanwhile, Vorona is forced to work with Simon Brezhnev and Denis at Russia Sushi after she was ambushed, and she calls herself weak because she has never met anyone as strong as Shizuo before. As Akabayashi takes Akane to the Rakuei Gym, an earlier conversation in her bedroom revealed that Akane does not trust anyone including herself, but Akabayashi suggested Akane to toughen herself up to protect herself and her family. Mairu and Kururi pass by, and they happen to attend this dojo, taking Akane inside. Shizuo and Tom walk inside Russia Sushi to eat, and Denis offers to put Vorona to work in debt collection with Shizuo and Tom.

| Anri has noticed a change in the city of Ikebukuro as well as the behavior of Mikado. In the online chat room, the users discuss the rumor that Ruri Hijiribe is being stalked by a member of the Dollars. Also, they mention that the Blue Squares, disguised with blue ski masks patterned as shark heads, are sweeping the city to unsubscribe members of the Dollars who mug bystanders for money. At the Rakuei Gym, the stalker is revealed to be Kisuke Adabashi, who carries a stash of photos of Ruri in his gym bag. After surviving a dangerous mission of transporting a pet snake to the home of a mogul's daughter, Celty comes back to the apartment and jumps into Shinra's arms with relief. Anri shows up and expresses her concern to them regarding Mikado's unusual behavior. Meanwhile, Shizuo is visited by Kasuka Heiwajima, who brought Ruri with him. Shizuo first mistakes that Kasuka and Ruri came by to get married. However, Kasuka says that Ruri is being stalked by a member of the Dollars who is tied with a group that deals information about idols online. Although Shizuo is unable to help them due to resigning from the Dollars, Ruri will be staying at Kasuka's place in the meantime. A flashback reveals that Aoba asked Shinra and Celty for an email address when they returned from their getaway trip. In the present, Anri reveals that Mikado has been hanging around Aoba at school. Shizuo, Kasuka and Ruri show up at Shinra and Celty's apartment.

| In the past, Ruri was born and raised in a little town tucked deeply in the mountains of the Kantō region. After her father and grandfather went bankrupt, her family home burned to the ground mysteriously. Her mother and father both disappeared shortly after, while her grandmother married into the family, though it is unsure if it was from a previous divorce or death. After being infatuated by cinematic monsters during her childhood, Ruri apprenticed as a special effect makeup artist under Tenjin Zakuroya in hopes of getting closer to her grandmother. Her success led her to meet Yodogiri, who offered to turn her into a pop idol. In the present, Yodogiri contacts Kisuke, whose father was killed by Ruri long ago, although Kisuke remains indifferent about this. For previously providing information about Ruri, Yodogiri wants to cash in a favor from Kisuke. Mikado and Kyohei walk together as they discuss about the corruption of freedom within the Dollars. At Shinra and Celty's apartment, since Celty is more knowledgeable about the Dollars, she eventually finds the forum of the Dollars that is dealing information about Ruri. A flashback reveals that Ruri was forced by Yodogiri to attend a party for their sponsors. It is also revealed that Kisuke's father was a sponsor. However, after following his father to one of these parties with intentions of blackmail, Kisuke saw Ruri and fell madly in love with her. In the present, Shizuo, Kasuka and Ruri are escorted outside the apartment, unknowingly being watched by Kisuke from a distance. Seiji and Mika come by Shinra and Celty's apartment to help, and Mika proves her skills as a former stalker by picking a locked door. Kasuka and Ruri meet with Max Sandshelt, who shows Ruri a photo of her surrounded by men wearing opera masks. In the past, Kisuke's father and his men cut Ruri's arm with a scalpel, in which the wound healed instantly. Ruri learned that Yodogiri approached her because the blood of a monster was coursing through her veins. After Yodogiri killed Ruri's father when he resurfaced, it was then that Hollywood was born and bent on revenge. In the present, Anri is left responsible for taking care of Kasuka's cat Yuigadokusonmaru and parts ways with Seiji and Mika. Masaomi Kida, who has been living with his girlfriend Saki Mikajima, returns to Ikebukuro to find Shizuo, who flicks Masaomi on the forehead as closure for getting him shot by the Yellow Scarves before. Shinra is beaten up by Kisuke, who appears as a delivery guy. | ||||||||||||

| Mikado calls Celty and warns her that Shinra is in danger. She goes back to her apartment, finding Shinra badly injured and taking him to the hospital. In the online chat room, Saki opens up a private chat to tell some users that the stalker has more than one alibi after Ruri. Kisuke found out through the forum of the Dollars that Ruri was Hollywood. Earlier, Mikado used his administrator privileges on the website of the Dollars to hack the information regarding anyone acquainted with Ruri. Mikado then sent the Blue Squares after the alibis. While on the way to Russia Sushi, Masaomi, Shizuo, Tom and Vorona are attacked by two alibis, but the Blue Squares arrive to intervene. A confused Masaomi chases after a member of the Blue Squares and accidentally knocks him unconscious, realizing that Mikado sent a text message to the Blue Squares to protect Anri near her apartment without her knowing. Anri accidentally lets Yuigadokusonmaru run outside from her apartment, while she is found and kicked by Kisuke. After Yuigadokusonmaru scurries away, Kisuke goes out and attacks the members of the Blue Squares. Masaomi sneaks in with a counterattack, but Kisuke manages to pin down Masaomi. Mikado, who was fully masked, lights Kisuke on fire, causing Kisuke to run away in anguish. Aoba arrives in a van to pick up Mikado and the Blue Squares. Before leaving, Mikado tells Masaomi to be patient, to stay away until he is done and to not tell Anri about him. Anri then finds Masaomi and picks up Yuigadokusonmaru. Before running off, Masaomi promises to explain everything later. Elsewhere, Seitarō wants Yodogiri to give him Celty, Anri and Ruri at any price. In the parking garage, Kisuke, with a severely burned back, receives a leaked photo of Ruri surrounded by Kisuke's father and his men wearing opera masks that Max reported to be a computer virus. As he browses his phone, a man with a half-burned face walks up to him with a large hammer in his hand. Izaya, now discharged from the hospital, is seen back in his apartment typing in the online chat room as two different users, and Namie remarks that he has no friends. Instead, Izaya points out the people around him in the workplace who has joined his alliance, which include the badly-injured Sloan, Kisuke unconsious on the ground, the man with the half-burned face from before, Manami Mamiya, and other unknown individuals. Izaya holds Celty's head up to the window and suggests a hot pot party to celebrate, as a close-up shot shows that Celty's eyes have started to open up slightly. | ||||||||||||

| Haruya Shiki hires Izaya to go to a gambling ring run by an organization named Amphisbaena, which uses integrated circuit casino chips as collateral for their tournaments. Shiki informs Izaya that that Akabayashi recently cracked down on some drug dealers, but Shiki only learned that the supplier is not Amphisbaena. It is later shown that Mimizu, leader of Amphisbaena, has captured Izaya, who is tied to a chair and has a potato sack over his head. Mimizu tries to torture Izaya by pouring water over his head. Earlier that day, as Mairu and Kururi find Izaya near the Rakuei Gym, Izaya is attacked by dojo instructor Eijirō Sharaku, who berates Izaya for possibly violating his sister Mikage Sharaku in the past. However, Mikage kicks Eijirō in his head, telling him that picking fights in the streets would give the dojo a bad reputation. At night, Izaya is guarded by the biker gang Dragon Zombie and meets with Celty to help him transport some information in a laptop. Elsewhere, Hiroto Shijima, second-in-command of Heaven's Slave supplying the drug, learns that the casino chips can record wins and losses electronically, each containing a transmitter and a bug inside. In fact, the goal is for Heaven's Slave to team up with Amphisbaena to expand the business. Celty leaves the laptop unattended, and Heaven's Slave manages to snatch it and evade Shooter in the form of a horse. Thanks to the laptop's GPS device, which tracked the location of the casino chips, Heaven's Slave barges into Amphisbaena's secret location. Mimizu and Hiroto both receive a phone call from an obscure voice, who revealed the respective leaders of Amphisbaena and Heaven's Slave to be Tokage and Kumoi. Izaya cuts himself loose and reveals that he felt like he was not tortured at all. Ran Izumii, who was the caller, and Mikage arrive to beat up their opponents. In the streets, Izaya encounters Haruna Niekawa, who is obeying him because of his promise to take her to see her teacher Takashi Nasujima. Afterwards, Izaya tells Shiki that Amphisbaena has shut down their casinos and disbanded their membership, though Izaya denies knowing from Shiki that Heaven's Slave also split town. Shiki informs Izaya that Akabayashi wants to speak with him. Izaya believes that being an information broker is more so his passion and not just his job. | ||||||||||||

| Kasane Kujiragi talks to Nakura, who is Izaya's middle school acquaintance. Nakura says that he sold his name to Izaya and received books about folklore in the mail. Celty once again manages to outsmart Kinnosuke Kuzuhara while on the road, and she returns to Shinra, who is recuperating in bed. As Celty begins to change Shinra's bandages, she notices a scar on his lower abdomen, which he received by being stabbed by a knife in the past. Twelve years ago, on the first day at Raishin Middle School, Shinra invited Izaya to start up a biology club together, seeing as two students are required to start one, since Izaya announced that he loved to observe living beings. Izaya first declined the offer but decided to join after giving it a second thought. In the biology room, they discussed if it is possible to fall in love with a zombie. Izaya then began taking bets on baseball games. In the present, Izaya contacts Nakura to confirm that he was listening in on his conversation with Kasane. Izaya reminds Nakura how they secretly founded Amphisbaena and Heaven's Slave when they were in high school. Nakura used the alias Tokage, and Mimizu referred to him as her boss. He then used the alias Kumoi, and Hiroto used him as a scapegoat even after he disappeared. This reminder causes Nakura to have a mental breakdown. In the past, a month later in the biology room, Nakura ran towards Izaya with a knife because the latter refused to cancel a bet on a baseball game. Shinra consequently protected Izaya from being stabbed and ended up with a wound in the lower abdomen. After Nakura runs off in shock, Izaya patches up Shinra's wound with duct tape. Izaya allowed himself to be arrested so Nakura can live a life of regret. In the present, after being told to let the members of Heaven's Slave steal the laptop, Celty meets with Izaya at night to receive her money, and Izaya says that Yodogiri was the one who sent Kisuke to attack Shinra before. Once Celty leaves, she realizes that Izaya was carrying her head in his bag. | ||||||||||||

Hiroto meets with Yodogiri and Kasane to discuss matters about the Dollars in front of his father and grandfather. Meanwhile, a reporter named Shuji Niekawa is looking for Haruna, his missing daughter. He did not file a missing person's report because he still receives texts from her, but he did check her computer to learn about Nasujima as well as the Dollars. Aoba and Ran meet up during the day in the city, where they are revealed to be brothers. It is revealed that Aoba originally founded the Blue Squares but left Ran in charge after Horada began his crimes. Ran claims he wants to meet Mikado in person and pay his respects, since Mikado is the one who started the Dollars. In a playground at night, Akabayashi gives Izaya an assignment to dig up more information on Mikado, suspicious about his relationship with Anri. In a parking lot, Aoba compares the city to a shallow ocean and the Blue Squares to a bunch of sharks, saying that only Mikado will help them thrive deeper into the Dollars. Masaomi tells Kyohei, Walker and Saburo that the Blue Squares are responsible for tossing out the bad apples in the Dollars but does not answer if Mikado has something to do with this. As Kyohei leaves Russia Sushi to think it over for a few days, he soon becomes the victim of a hit and run, which is then posted in the online chat room. Mikado tells Aoba that it is bad idea to pass by the hospital to visit Kyohei, yet Mikado is somewhat glad that Kyohei is there. | ||||||||||||

| When news of the hit and run finally got to Celty and Shinra, the latter shows concerns for the Dollars, saying that Shizuo is the muscle and Kyohei is the conscience dealing with both external and internal threats. Soon after, Celty receives a message from Aoba, asking if they can meet somewhere and talk. Shuji requests Shiki to help Shuji find Haruna, thinking that the Dollars are responsible for her disappearance. Shiki then calls Akabayashi to set up a meeting. In a bar, Izaya and Akabayashi confirm that Mikado is the leader of the Dollars. In the hospital, Anri and Erika wait in the lobby as Kyohei undergoes surgery. Masaomi reform the Yellow Scarves, and their mission is to take down Mikado. Saburo drives to a convenience store and encounters former classmates from his high school, telling them that he will kill the one responsible for the hit and run by dragging them behind his van. Walker follows the Yellow Scarves to the karaoke bar, with the stench of kerosene on him, believing it was this gang that was behind the hit and run. In the new hideout of the Blue Squares, Mikado finds out from an online post that Shizuo got arrested, and Aoba begins to wonder if Mikado truly is twisted. With Kyohei and Shizuo out of the picture, Aoba suggests to Mikado that the Dollars need a symbol to represent them. Celty arrives and reluctantly agrees to be the symbol after a previous conversation with Aoba. Akabayashi then arrives on the scene. Earlier that afternoon on a rainy day, Namie encounters Seitarō and Kasane on her way back to her hiding place.

Before Akabayashi leaves, he introduces Shuji, who begs Mikado to help him find Haruna. Walker is followed by Ran, who reveals the scars on his face and arm, Ran attempts to land an attack with his sledgehammer, but Walker retaliates with a flamethrower. After Ran says that Kyohei is now in a comatose state, Walker speculates that Ran is not the culprit because Ran would have wanted Kyohei dead instead. Ran receives a phone call and abruptly leaves. Anri views an urgent online post previously made by Mikado on the website of the Dollars, which details looking for Haruna as a runaway girl. Celty confronts Aoba for his reasons behind wanting to purge the Dollars, especially when she believes that Aoba is using Mikado to fight Masaomi and the Yellow Scarves. While Yodogiri and Kasane are walking in the parking garage, Yodogiri receives a phone call from Izaya, who asks where Namie is. When Yodogiri refuses to comply, a man possessed by Saika drives his car into Yodogiri. Kasane then receives a phone call from Izaya, who concludes that Jinnai Yodogiri is a name of a group of men and that Kasane Kujiragi is their true leader. Izaya reveals that Kasane sold Saika to Shingen, and taunts Kasane by saying that Saika is now being used against her.

Erika tells Chikage that only family members are allowed to see Kyohei Kadota, who will be waking up from his surgery soon. Chikage exchanges numbers with Erika and leaves. Izaya shows up at the hospital just when Anri is about to tell Erica about Saika. Anri suspects Izaya of messing with Mikado Ryūgamine and Masaomi Kida, but Izaya declares that he did nothing, all for the love of observing human beings. As Izaya strongly believes Anri of being inhuman when she agreed to be one with Saika, Erica slaps Izaya with a paper plane, telling him to stop trying to make Anri cry. When Izaya leaves for a cranial nerve examination, Erika consoles Anri. Meanwhile, an exhausted Celty informs Shinra about the difficulty of sleeping arrangements for her house guests. Shinra is concerned because Celty acts more human than most people, which is why she is so kind. It is revealed that Kasane and the mother of Ruri Hijiribe are half-sisters, Kasane being considerably younger. Ruri's grandmother took Kasane after she was born and sold her to Jinnai Yodogiri, who trained Kasane from a young age to run his business, forcing her to prey on humans and monsters alike. After Yodogiri died, Kasane continued to run the business by using stand-ins for him, because running the business was all she knew in the world. Kasane became jealous upon discovering that her niece Ruri was freely pursuing her dreams. Seitarō calls Kasane asking about Yodogiri, and Kasane tells him that she will be taking care of their contract. Kasane is seen enjoying her first day of freedom, buying out all the cat ear headbands at a cosplay store and reading a magazine under a tree at a park. Anri also goes to the cosplay store, discontent that the cat ear headbands were sold out earlier. However, she runs into Haruna Niekawa, another wielder of Saika. In the online chat room, Kururi tells Celty to watch the live broadcast on television, which shows that a woman's head was found in the bushes in front of the police station. Earlier the same day, Manami Mamiya, still bent on getting revenge on Izaya, went to see Haruna at her apartment. Haruna, who was ordered by Izaya to guard Celty's head, was persuaded by Manami to hand it over in order to get back her freedom, before they went their separate ways. In the present, Celty faints after news of her head is reported on the internet. | ||||||||||||

Izaya advises Mikado to quit the Dollars and lead a normal life, but Mikado declines by saying that Izaya was behind the reason why Masaomi knows about him. Mikado plans to reset the Dollars, but Izaya comments that this would make Mikado nonessential to this gang. Meanwhile, Haruna brings Anri to the park, where Haruna explains that she forgives Anri for slashing her with Saika long ago, channeling her hatred into love. Since Haruna is obsessed with looking for her teacher Takashi Nasujima, she asks Anri to join forces with her. Haruna learned that Anri has a relationship with Mikado and Masaomi, which Haruna knew all about because she used to work with Izaya. Haruna, who notices that Anri is trying to contain Saika within her, offers to take Saika for herself. As Anri declines the offer, Haruna now has the reason to fight. Izaya is amazed by Mikado's unpredictability when the latter admits to his nonessential qualities. Mikado analogizes that he wants to sit in a boat at the water's edge, more or less controlling people's happiness and misery from the front row. Izaya turns down Mikado's proposal to join his side, but Mikado tells Izaya to check the news before hanging up the call. After blocking one attack from Haruna, Anri realizes that she called herself a parasite, neither a human nor a monster. Kasane, who overheard Anri and Haruna, requests them to take their fight somewhere else since they disturbed the cats in the park. Revealing herself as the original Saika, Kasane restrains and shocks Haruna. Kasane notices that Anri does not want her Saika and offers to buy Saika from Anri at any price, explaining that she has a contract to procure her Saika for a client of hers. After Haruna believes Kasane to be a thieving cat, Kasane agrees for the three of them to discuss matters further in a cafe. Hiroto meets with a disguised Nasujima, who suggests that they work together to obtain Yodogiri's fortune.

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. Haruna points out that Anri could control the ones whom she loves by cutting them with Saika, but Kasane says that it is possible to cut them but not control them. Kasane also says that the wielder of Saika should be thought of as a virtue instead of a curse, leading Anri to question her humanity. After Kasane calmly identifies herself as a villain, she clarifies that Anri's relationship with Saika is symbiotic and not parasitic. Anri withdraws from giving up her Saika because how it has saved her life up until now. Kasane gives Anri her business card in order to contact her later. As Erika arrives at the cafe, she is stoked that Kasane collects cat ear headbands. Kasane and Haruna go their separate ways, while Erika tells Anri that Kyohei has woken up from his comatose state. Masaomi tries to trap Chikage in a chokehold, but Chikage runs and then jumps off the rooftop parking lot. Masaomi grabs onto a pole just before the jump, but he encounters Ran Izumii, who arrives with his crew. Ran blurts out that he broke the legs of Saki Mikajima, leading to an intense match between Masaomi and Ran, one where both of them bleed.

Kasane's plan is to reunite Celty's head and body together, then sever the head again to claim the body. Since Celty's head contains memories of her previous life, it is believed that Celty will forget her life as the Headless Rider when her head is restored. Shizuo, who manages to ride into the street blocked off by people possessed by Saika, confronts Kasane for treating Celty like a monster to sell like merchandise. Vorona arrives and aims a gun at Shizuo to express her seriousness in her current mission, but Shizuo mentions that she is his trainee. As Seitarō orders Vorona to shoot Shizuo, Kasane tells Vorona that she is not obligated to do so and suggests that they should leave instead.
