| Late at night, Ryo's pleasant dream is interupted by a phone call from Umibozu, who offers him a tempting job. Eighteen year old "blonde beauty" Kathleen Heywood needs an escort as she goes sightseeing in Tokyo, he says. Ryo suspects there's more to this than he's being told, but can't resist the opportunity. At Kathleen's hotel, Ryo introduces himself as "Umibozu's substitute", which nearly causes her to draw a gun, until she realizes this man really knows nothing about what's going on. To Kaori she makes the curious remark that she should be careful, because "no one knows when Mr. Umibozu will betray them"... |
