Synopsis

Shingen orders his guards to leave before drawing his sword and attacking Logan. An intense fight follows during which Shingen manages to seriously injure Logan, to the point his healing factor has trouble keeping up. Elswhere in the Dragon Palace, Hideki arms himself with a gun loaded with the special poison A.I.M. made for him. He prepares to shoot Logan with it, but this time Shingen stops him, insisting the he and he alone should finish Logan.

As the fight continues, Yukio joins in and attacks Shingen, but is injured by him. Hideki, ignoring Shingens orders, tries to shoot Logan, but Kikyo intercepts the dart with his own body. Logan breaks Shingen’s sword and slices up Shingens outfit, only to learn his opponent is wearing an armor of vibranium and steel underneath. Shingen continues to fight barehanded, and in the struggle both men fall out a window, into the pool below.

Hideki takes Mariko to the catacombs underneath the palace, where he has buried the corpse of his father. Once there, he admits that he killed his own father with the same poison he intends to use on Logan. He further reveals that he rigged the whole Dragon Palace with explosives, and sets the timer to detonate them.

Kikyo, who is still suffering from the poison, helps Yukio on her feet.  They make their way to the pool, where Logan is still fighting Shingen. For a moment, Shingen seems to have the upper hand, but then Logan fatally injures him by stabbing him through the neck. While Logan holds Shingen in place, he lets Yukio give Shingen the killing blow so she can have her revenge. As Shingens corpse falls into the pool, Yukio succumbs to her own injuries. Just before dying, she admits that it was her who killed Tesshin. She did it to get Logan to help her with her revenge, and expresses her regret.

Kikyo informs Logan that Hideki and Mariko are in the catacombs, and the two make their way there. Meanwhile, the timer reaches zero and the bombs go off, destroying the Dragon Palace. Logan and Kikyo escape the destruction however and break into the catacombs. In a last ditch effort to defeat Logan, Hideki uses a toxic dart. As the poison cripples Logan, Hideki pulls out a regular gun to finish the job. When Hideki is close enough, Logan reveals he pulled the poisonous dart out of his body before getting the entire dose, and stabs Hideki with the dart, giving him the rest of the poison. Hideki dies within seconds, but in the struggle his gun went off and the bullet hit Mariko. Logan can only helplessly watch her die. The episode ends with a shot of Logan standing on a cliff, holding Mariko’s corpse and screaming in agony.

Trivia

  • In a cruel twist, Logan's efforts were for nothing as Mariko was killed by a stray bullet.
