Episode 14: Revenge

Sasaki retreats to his office after being unsettled by the boys, then leaves for a motel meeting after receiving a call. Joe confronts him with a gun and takes him to the beach, where the boys bury him to his neck as the tide approaches; Sasaki begs for mercy, but wakes in the motel unsure whether it happened. Mario tells Setsuko he spared Ishihara because Ishihara was not worth killing, while the others expose Sasaki's crimes during his mayoral address, driving him from the race and costing him his hospital. With Setsuko praying at Sakuragi's grave, the boys accept their revenge as complete, and Mario gives each friend a bullet taken from Sakuragi before they leave to pursue their dreams; Mario sees Sakuragi smiling at the tree.
