81:27-88:21 / 89:21-89:36

After Shima collapses, the original version follows with another shot of Harry and Claudia, then the final fade-in.


In the IFD-version, Richard instead finds a confusing message that he should come to the forest tomorrow. By phone, he learns that Shima has been killed. Again, he enters his closet and comes out again in ninja gear - off into the forest!

After several shots of running around to funky beats, Richard faces a girl who wants to kill him for betraying the ninja principles. Richard explains why Shima deserved to die and there are some funny threatening gestures. Nothing helps, the change into the ninja costume is necessary. Besides combat shots with physically agile doubles, there are, as usual, lots of close-ups of Richard looking grimly with his eyes painted. He cuts menacingly close to the girl's face and says that he will spare her. The girl doesn't really like that and so she commits suicide.
