Armani: Controlling the stands of other users is quite the feat. Something I will admit is that your ability is quite peculiar. However, I believe that it isn't anything I can't handle.

Yamato: You talk big for a bucket of bolts. Even if you don't have a stand or you yourself aren't one, there's nothing a singular construct can stop me at this point. You can also forget about anyone coming to save you.

Armani: Save me? Now why would I need anyone to do that?

Teresa: Dude, he has our stands. What are you going to do?

Yamato: There's nothing he can do. He has no means of defeating me, no means of calling for help, and there's no way that any of you have something up your sleeves.

*4 homeless men approach the alleyway where Armani and the others are; conversing among themselves about a secret stash of drugs one of them had hidden there.*

Man 1: I'm tellin ya, it's here. We're gonna find it and- hold on now. AYE, WHAT ARE YOU DOIN HERE!!

*The man pulls out a knife aimed at Yamato who looks back at them from the corner of his eye. The man gets irritated and goes to attack him followed by the others when suddenly they stop in their tracks and begin choking.*

Yamato: ...

Cleo: What's happening to them!?

Yamato: Like Icarus, they got to close to the sun and now they're about to get burned.

*The 4 men drop to their knees and gasp for air as one by one, they're souls lift from their bodies becoming swallowed up in the cloak of Highly Suspect.*

Armani: So normal humans are simply killed off if they don't have a stand. Interesting. Your stand has more than just a restraining presences now, but it's useless against an automation such as myself.

Yamato: You're clearly outmatched. You don't honestly think that you could take down 4 stands at one time, do you?

Armani: I believe I can. Cleo's stand won't work against me because it's a stand that affects perception. You would have to trick all 700,000 thousand pieces of my consciousness in order for that to work. Even if you could, our mind isn't the same as a human's. Joanne's stand is fairly simple. It's user would need to work in tandem with the stand itself to fully bring out it's abilities. As for Teresa's stand, you might as well had taken control of a brick.

Teresa: Watch it, jackass!

Armani: I'm sorry, dear friend.

Yamato: I see.

*A small glint appears in the eye of Highly Suspect as strings fly forth out if it's veil attaching itself to Joanne.*

Joanne: What!? What's happening!?

Yamato: If it only works in tandem with it's user, maybe this will be a good opportunity for me to see how well this pill works.

Joanne: Let go of me!

Armani: So your stand can control others as well as their stands? Not bad I must say, but how will this help you defeat me?

Yamato: Just you watch.

Cleo: Joanne!

Joanne: He's controlling my body with some kind of force. His stand is manipulating me!

Teresa: She can't control herself...

*Joanne's body becomes riddled with vectors that swirl around her arm and neck. She takes a crouching stance similar to a track star. Midnight Train and Joanne blasts off toward Armani's direction only to zip right past him.*
