The Joestar Group arrives in India. Polnareff escapes an attack from J. Geil, his sister's killer, but parts ways with the group to exact revenge on him. Unbeknownst to the Frenchman, J. Geil has teamed up with the gunslinger Hol Horse to lay a deadly trap for him.
Summary
The heroes have reached India, a stopover on the way to Egypt. Humorously, they suffer a bit from the culture shock with the filthy streets and the hordes of beggars and solicitors. The group rest at a café and Polnareff goes to the restroom. Looking inside a mirror, Polnareff spots The Hanged Man approaching him from inside the mirror and sees that it has two right hands. Polnareff realizes he's found Sherry's killer.
The Frenchman separates from the group to find his foe, frustrating Avdol who knows that Polnareff is heading to his death. The group is observed by another assassin, Hol Horse, who is in cahoots with J. Geil. Meeting with J.Geil, Hol Horse shows his gun Stand, Emperor, while Hanged Man cuts down a snake from inside the mirror. Meanwhile, the heroes worry about Polnareff and decide to look for him.
Eventually, Polnareff is lured into a trap set by The Hanged Man and Hol Horse. Stuck in a traffic jam, the heroes scatter to find Polnareff while Kakyoin guards their truck. Polnareff meets Hol Horse and they begin to fight after some banter. Emperor surprises Polnareff as it can control the trajectories of the bullets it shoots and the bullet evades Silver Chariot's sword to head for Polnareff's skull directly. Thankfully, Avdol shoves him aside before the bullet can reach him.
Hol Horse makes the bullet fly back at Avdol at the same time Kakyoin arrives. Avdol is confident and prepares to melt the bullet with Magician's Red. However, Hanged Man ambushes Avdol from one of the puddles on the street and stabs him in the back, allowing the bullet to hit Avdol in the head. Avdol is killed on the spot. Shocked, Polnareff tries to remain arrogant but Kakyoin realizes that the Frenchman is in tears.

Manga/OVA Differences
- The gag involving Polnareff and the pig's head in the toilet is entirely omitted.
- Polnareff mentions to Avdol that he and his sister were orphaned at an early age.
- Avdol does not attempt to attack Polnareff during his separation.
- Hol Horse's introductory scene is split. The first part occurs on the same bridge as the Joestar group's separation, with Hanged Man accompanying Hol in the reflections of his motorcycle.
- Hol Horse first appears on a motorcycle, rather than an elephant.
- Nena does not enter with Hol Horse, instead approaching him after his conversation with Hanged Man.
- Hol Horse is shown bribing the civilian that points Polnareff toward Hol Horse, in order to confront him on a specific street.
- The second part of Hol Horse's introductory scene is moved to after Polnareff begins looking for J. Geil.
- A series of original scenes show the group acquiring a truck and deciding to look for Polnareff. The truck is later shown stuck in traffic, forcing them to split up and find Polnareff on foot.
