Guilt-ridden, Hot Pants couldn't find peace even after becoming a nun, so confesses to Johnny that reassembling the Corpse would lead to her redemption. She is finally crushed by the membrane and disappears. Johnny then tries to reach the exit, but a duplicate of Danny confronts him as Gyro is covered by the membrane and incapacitated. Johnny seemingly shoots Danny trapped into a boot but his elder brother Nicholas Joestar emerges from it and covers him with membrane. Johnny nonetheless manages to crawl to his horse but his path is blocked by Danny. Danny fuses with Johnny but he manages to shoot at the water gourd and purifies himself with the water. Then seeing an old well nearby, Johnny shoots into the ground and manage to get underground water.
