Summary
Jorge wakes up lying on the road and sees that his injuries have healed up. He learns that he was sleeping on a large bed, a young boy next to the bed speaks in Italian, glad that he is now awake. Jorge replies while speaking Italian as well, surprised he was able to speak it; he asks how he knows his name and how he can speak Italian now. The boy explains that a Japanese man had come by with an ability that allowed people around including him to speak English, Italian, and Japanese. Jorge asks where he is, the boy explains that he is in a town called Morioh, he then introduces himself as Vinegar Doppio. He explains that his boss had saved him, he then reaches out for a book with its title being Pink Dark Boy, and curls it and holds it to his ear. He hums a weird sound and begins to speak to someone while completely ignoring Jorge. He explains to the other person that the Joestar boy is awake, he asks Jorge if he is able to get up. Jorge tries to get up but is unable to because of the amount of pain he was in. Doppio explains that he can feel better if he keeps moving, as Jorge refuses, the boy yells at him in anger. He threatens Jorge not to mess with him or he would shoot him with his gun. Jorge instantly feels better, he snatches the gun from him and points it at him, stating that he had been shot down by Germans and survived throughout a war.

The boy grabs the Pink Dark Boy book to his ear again, it makes a strange sound and begins to play music. It suddenly harms Jorge, causing lots of vibrations in his head. Doppio had somehow gotten the phone into his head, Jorge then points the gun to his head and shoots himself. The bullet gouges his skin and about seven centimeters long and seven millimeters deep into his skull. As the vibrations stop, he points the gun to Doppio and shoots him several times. None of the bullets hit him, instead, hit the wall behind him. A man with a hat standing next to Jorge asks him to knock it off. Doppio orders the man, whose name is Mista, to shoot Jorge.
