Summary
Polpo lights a lighter using the fingers he previously seemed to chew off. He then asks Giorno what the most important value in selecting someone is. Giorno replies, saying that the most important value is what someone is capable of, and reveals the stolen wallet of one of the security guards. Polpo explains his test to prove Giorno's reliability: to keep a lighter's fire lit for twenty-four hours. To join the gang, Giorno accepts this test. His first obstacle is to get through a body check without the guards noticing the lighter. He passes by, hiding the lighter in the corner of his hand. when asked to open his hands, he turns the lighter into a flower, tricking the guards. He leaves the prison, the first obstacle avoided.
