Summary
Jotaro's group arrives in Singapore, and meeting Anne again, decides to take them with her. The group checks into the hotel. After they split up due to the overcrowded hotel preventing them from getting rooms close to each other, Polnareff discovers an eerie looking doll with a spear on its back sitting on his nightstand. He then orders whoever's hiding in the fridge to come and confronts Devo the Cursed, Polnareff wounds Devo, but the latter escape via a balcony, cursing him. Something slices Polnareff's ankle, and in response he calls Joseph and Avdol while he bandages himself. After Polnareff makes a second call to room service for medical assistance, Avdol explains Devo the Cursed to Joseph, stating that he is an assassin hired by criminals from all over the world, and that his Stand is powered by grudge. After concluding it's dangerous for any of them to be alone, Joseph then calls Jotaro to have all four of them meet up in Polnareff's room. Meanwhile Polnareff searches for his room key, which he finds under his bed. However, as soon as he crawls under the bed, he hears footsteps and suddenly finds himself tied to the underside of the bed and blinded by shampoo. Something then begins sawing off the legs of the bed, which ends up pinning Polnareff to the ground. The attendant Polnareff called is promptly killed with a razor slicing through his neck. The murderer reveals himself as the doll Polnareff found earlier, possessed by Ebony Devil. Polnareff attempts to attack the doll with Silver Chariot, but as he is unable to see his enemy, it is futile.

Silver Chariot fights the doll and can only break its spear, wreaking havoc in his room. The doll then soaks the entire room with the beer and other drinks in the fridge, intending to fry Polnareff with a short-circuiting hairdryer. However, just as the doll drops the hairdryer, Polnareff reveals he was purposely scattering the shards of the bedroom mirror to let himself see above the bed, as Chariot skewers both the hairdryer and the doll's head and slices the doll to pieces. The scene cuts to Devo hiding in the bathroom, now a mangled corpse. Polnareff then joins up with the others, and soon faces interrogation from the police over suspicions of killing a little boy in his hotel room and the death of Devo in the hotel bathroom, but Speedwagon Foundation agents bail him out. Later, Joseph divines with the use of a TV an hears that Kakyoin is a traitor. Joseph concludes there must be something more to the story, and the episode ends with a cut showing Kakyoin with Jotaro outside the hotel, the former with a menacing look on his face.

Manga/Anime Differences

 * There's an extra scene showing how the group distributed themselves through the hotel rooms.
 * After the fight, a scene was added showing Polnareff being interrogated by the Singapore police after the incident in the hotel, but he's saved by the Speedwagon Foundation.
 * There's an extra scene showing Jotaro and Kakyoin checking on Anne before meeting Joseph and Avdol.
 * The scene where Joseph uses Hermit Purple on the hotel television is altered from the manga and does not feature Nekodora-kun. It does however have a short blip featuring Gorgeous Irene one of Araki's previous mangas.
 * In the animated scene where Ebony Devil tries to electrocute Polnareff, the hairdryer is spewing fire, possibly adding an additional ignition effect to the spilled alchohol.
