The Emperor and the Hanged Man, Part 1.Episode Description:
The Joestar group arrives in Calcutta, which presents a considerable culture shock. Polnareff sees J. Geil's Stand the Hanged Man in the mirror of a restaurant's toilet. He smashes the mirror before the Stand gets too close. Afterwards, he decides he should hunt down J. Geil on his own, despite Avdol's warnings that they should remain together. Elsewhere, Hol Horse, another of DIO's assassins, teams up with J. Geil to kill Polnareff. The next day, Polnareff finds J. Geil with Hol Horse, but J. Geil disappears as the rainy sky clears. Hol Horse uses his Stand the Emperor, which takes the form of a gun, to fire a bullet at Polnareff, but the bullet is a part of the Emperor and dodges Silver Chariot. Just as the bullet is about to hit Polnareff, Avdol arrives and pushes him to the ground. Avdol attempts to melt the bullet with Magician's Red. The Hanged Man emerges from the reflection of a puddle and stabs Avdol in the back, allowing the bullet to strike his forehead. Kakyoin and Polnareff mourn Avdol's death.
