Aired on May 13, 2005

31
Black Jack experiences sudden paralysis in his hand while performing surgery on a patient, leaving him confused about the cause. This incident occurs twenty years after Dr. Honma operated on him. He recalls that Dr. Honma had previously blocked his memory regarding a warning from another doctor. That doctor had stated Black Jack's hand would become immobile after two decades. The paralysis confirms this prediction, revealing the hidden consequence of the past surgery that Dr. Honma had deliberately concealed from his student's mind.
