Always Stay the Way You Are Nepenthes appears with his boss after a trap they put at the mansion sets off, and binds Shinjiro and Moroboshi using his vines. Ace Killer Seiji sets them free, and Shinjiro fights Nepenthes. He is soon joined by Moroboshi after he deals with some henchmen, but they are defeated and bound once again.
