Summary[]
Alberto Camarasa repeats to Roberta his warning not to try and deceive him. Intentionally licking her lips in a seductive manner, Roberta asks him what he wants to do next. Reminding her that he is the one who will test her, he replies that she will gain his trust if she acts like a good hound, ordering her to stick out her tongue. Watching them tongue kiss, Garcia turns his eyes away and is greatly unnerved, biting his thumb so tight that it bleeds. As he puts images of Roberta's maid persona in his mind to calm himself, Roberta asks Camarasa if she can disrobe her pants, and he warns her to do it herself slowly. As she presses her belt buckle, a hidden gun emerges and shoots Camarasa in the stomach, pushing him back. As his abdomen bleeds, he curses her as she gleefully taunts him for not being cautious enough.
Roberta kicks his gun away before he can grab it, remarking that runaway dogs like herself never return to their original master. She agrees that it would have been easier to just use Camarasa to kill the American soldiers and then betray him, saying that Camarasa and the U.S. foxes both follow the same loathsome master of ideology and philosophy. Finishing that her only master is Garcia Fernando Lovelace, Roberta is then interrupted by Camarasa painfully muttering that she is no longer a bloodhound but instead a wolf. Consequently, Roberta begins to bludgeon him to death with her fists, shocking Garcia and making him cry a river of tears. He loudly pleads with Roberta to stop, and she turns her head and is greatly surprised to see the young master, terrified that he witnessed her killing Camarasa. She then lets out a loud scream that gives away her position to Revy and Caxton's respective groups.
Turning her head away in shame, Roberta tells Garcia not to look at her, but the frozen boy kneels onto the ground and silently cries. Roberta frantically crawls to him and begs him to wake up, and behind her she hears her hallucination remind her that she has remembered him as an intrusive thought to prevent urges for revenge. The dead Japanese man recalls that it has been 7 years since she attacked the Taisho Electric office in Magdalena and killed two Japanese employees including him. Reminding her that she tore up his family photograph before executing him, the man states that the photo is a tiny scar that remained with her during her FARC days. The man then assumes that had she stayed with Garcia, then her mental scar could have healed.
Yelling back at the hallucination, Roberta angrily asks what she can do to be forgiven for her sins, accusing the Japanese man of exploiting her young master to toy with her emotions. Laughing deliriously, Roberta thinks that the man has concocted a hallucination of Garcia to trick her since she cannot think why the boy would be in Roanapur. Declaring that her actual master is still waiting for her return at the mansion, Roberta grins and points her pistol at the young boy, claiming that she will prove that the boy is just a hallucination.
