His mother, Holly, contacts grandfather Joseph Joestar, who arrives with Mohammed Avdol. Joseph tasks Avdol with removing Jotaro, who summons a protective spirit. Joseph explains these manifestations are Stands, powered by life force. Jotaro fights back, breaking the bars, allowing Avdol to succeed.

Trapped and partially blinded, Polnareff struggles as Silver Chariot cannot target unseen enemies, resulting in a hotel staff member's death. Polnareff frees himself just as the doll prepares to electrocute him with a hairdryer. Using mirror reflections, he locates and destroys the doll, killing Devo remotely. While Polnareff handles the aftermath with legal aid, Joseph uses Hermit Purple on a television to reveal a message warning of a traitor among them, specifically naming Kakyoin as Dio's servant.

After fire and ice fail, Jotaro drags Rubber Soul into the sea to force him to lower his guard. Interrogated, Rubber Soul names the next Stands: Death, the Empress, the Emperor, and the Hanged Man, the latter belonging to J. Geil. Jotaro defeats Rubber Soul using a water blast through a pipe.

The Hanged Man pursues them through reflective surfaces, forcing a crash. They realize the Stand jumps between reflections, including a young boy's eyes. Polnareff kicks sand into the boy's eyes to force the Stand into his own eye, striking it. This leads them to J. Geil, but the man is a decoy. J. Geil uses beggars to trap them, jumping the Stand between their eyes. Kakyoin flips a gold coin to distract everyone, allowing Polnareff to destroy the Stand and kill J. Geil.
