This episode is
different than the ones that have come before. In the first scenes of the episode,
Arisu and Usagi are spending time together and getting to know each other better.
Previously, they were too busy trying to stay alive and trying to recover from an
onslaught of tragedy to really talk to each other.
Eventually, they
follow other players who are wearing wrist tags to a place called the “Beach”. This
place turns out to be a large luxury hotel playing host to a group of players
who have banded together. Arisu and Usagi miscalculate and are captured and
taken to the group’s leader - “Hatter”. He is quite an interesting character because
he’s so bizarre. He walks around in a silk bathroom and swim trunks, wearing
sunglasses (inside!). He tells them that his ultimate plan is to collect all
the playing cards, thinking that if someone has them all then everyone can
escape the game. It seems farfetched but given the oddity of the game it maybe
plausible.
Arisu also plays a
game where he has to escape from a room with other players before they all drown.
This game is run by a new character called Ann and it’s meant to test his
skill. For the rest of the episode the main characters are partying at the pool
and plotting how to get their hands on all the playing cards.
Words/phrases that I recognized: “ABC 3つのスイッチの中で” – Heard this over the speaker system as
the players were trying to escape the kill room. I also recognized the word for
door. The characters while arguing with each other used the following words a
lot: “what” 何, the conjunction
for “but” でも
