11-10-1973
The woman pulls off her face, it's Misao in disguise (must have learned that from Rieko). Hiroshi apparently tells her to put the mask back on because she does, but it's too late, Hakaida and Shadow Knight hiding in the shadows have all ready seen.
Back at the hotel the woman is attacked by two of the masked men in black. She runs out of the hotel into a cave. More men in black appear. Ichiro shows up, knocks the men down and leads the woman out of the cave. The figure in white and the men in black appear. Ichiro transforms into Kikaida 01 but the men vanish. Zadam appears. When Zadam crosses his twin tridants 01 is hit by a energy blast that knocks him onto some rocks. A second blast rips off 01's left arm, which then tries to strangle 01! Zadam vanishes. Kikaida appears, grabs hold of 01's left arm. Kikaida's eyes flash and the arm stops moving. He holds the arm back in it socket. His eyes flash again and the arm is reattached. The woman opens her watch and gives Ichiro something that was hidden inside of it (microfilm?).
The woman joins Hiroshi, Akira and the disguised Misao. After she tells Misao everything's ok she removes her mask and wig. Hakaida, Shadow Knight and several Shadowmen, carrying spears instead of the usual lightning bolts, appear. Ichiro arrives, and transforms into Kikaida 01. The two women and two boys flee. The white clothed, masked firgure appears, grabs the other woman, taking her to Zadam. 01 knocks Hakaida and Shadow Knight down with 01 cut then goes into battle with Long-Nosed Goblin Flying Squirrel. After Long-Nosed Goblin Flying Squirrel is destroyed by 01 Zadam summons Hell Amphibian. The episode ends with Hell Amphibian holding onto the arm of Zadam's prisoner.
