The scene opens up at hospital where Ichi's burnt wounds already healed by the amulet as Knies & Neil were there for him.

Neil: Jeez, sucks for him to have burnt wounds.

Knives: Yeah...

Neil looks at her and asked.

Neil: Knives... why do you care about him more than Scott? He said he wouldn't date a girl unless they matched the description he put out.

Knives: It's not romance. It's just... he was there for me about my problems.

Neil: Yeah, he said that he went to psychiatrist school to, well, know better and understand people around him.

Knives: Yeah, it's just... he feels like a parent figure to me.

Neil: Yeah... me too...

They look on at Ichi.

Neil: What do you think he's training now?

Knives: My guess, Ashrah since I get the feeling his training section would be based on character chapters in MK 1.

Neil: Yeah, it is possible.

Later

On Saturday night, the bands are praticing for an upcoming performance at Lee's Palace. As practice goes on, Stephen stops the music.

Stephen: Hold on! Stop!

He looks at Ramona: Do we suck?

Ramona: What? I don't know, do you?

She is an unbiased third party for group.

Stephen: Do we? We do!

Kim: Shut the hell up and start over!

While that goes on Ramona speaks to Neil.

Ramona: So, how's Ichi going?

Neil: He's recovering fine. He won't be in for tomorrow for half of the day.

Ramona: Glad to hear it.

Neil: Yeah. Anyway, how's Knives?

Ramona: She and I going fine. Even though she's ex-girlfriend Scott, she still decides to be friend with him thanks to Ichi. And it's also weird that she said about visions that lead to Armageddon if nothing important has changed in the future.

Neil: Vision?

Ramona: I mean, it's off about that.

Later on, they stop at that.

Stephen: that was... better.

Scott: Oh, hey, Kim, we have another thing tonight... We're meeting at Lee's after their show.

Kim: Actually, boys, I'm busy. I've got a hot date tonight.

Scott: A hot date with a collage you're doing?

Stephen: A hot date with a 2000-piece puzzle depicting the Bluenose II?

Kim: Okay, did it ever occur to you that I might actually have a date?

Scott & Stephen: ...

Scott: Kim, you're a hall of a catch.

Stephen: You're a damn fine woman, Kim. Damn fine.

Kim: Whatever, let's just play the setlist again, assholes...

Meanwhile

As Ichi still lay down on the bed, an unknown woman come up to him after going through the door.
