Summary
As Brad approaches an unconscious Vash, elsewhere Legato and the remaining Gung-Ho-Guns learn of Leonof's and Gray's defeat. A brief flashback of when Vash was found by the residents of the floating ship is shown and then Vash awakens in the infirmary. Resting in the bed next to him is Wolfwood, and soon, Milly, Jessica, and Meryl enter the room. Immediately the insurance girls greet Vash while Jessica embraces him. The remaining residents of the ship then visit Vash and inform him that 170 of the 480 residents were killed by Gray and/ or Lenof. Forlorn by the staggering number of losses, Vash blames himself for all of the losses. A man named Luida steps in and tries to dissuade Vash from that notion. He also details that they hospitalized two of the men that were inside Gray, confirming that there were a total of nine,and that they were working for Knives. Furthermore, the council will take over from there and mentions that Vash should rest easy from there on out. When Vash asks Luida about Sensei,Luida immediately changes the subject.

Afterward, Wolfwood awakens and cynically retorts Vash's gratitude towards him. Wolfwood's inner-monologue reveals that Vash's comments and actions tend to easily piss him off. He also notes Vash's youth immortality. Just then Jessica drops Wolfwood's tray of food on him and the young woman acts all apologetically. Although Wolfwood tries to brush it off, he spots a locket with a young picture of Jessica and Vash in it.
