Shindo (Abe) was hiding behind a tree and secretly watching his daughter Sumire (Horikoshi Reika) and ex-wife Kyoko (Aitsuki Akiko) when a reporter, Minami (Kaji Masaki), showed up.
Minami said he heard from the police, "It seems that after Kageyama (Ishibashi Renji), (chairman of Kageyama Heavy Industries), was arrested, they were able to round up the perpetrators of the crimes, the underground organisation Together Space, and among them were the attackers of Yamai's (Otoo Takuma) father and the culprit who killed Yamai in a gas explosion. They apparently confessed that it was all on Kageyama's orders."
Minami also revealed that all the criminals behind the cases Shindo had been pursuing had been indicted, and said, "However, they haven't come forward yet about the attack on Shindo's wife. It seems the boss of the organization has fled. That said, we don't know anything about that person, except that he has a bad leg." Shindo responded, "Well, I'll expose him soon."
In the midst of all this, a mysterious man, played by Teranishi, appears. While keeping an eye on Sumire and Kyoko, the man reports to someone on the phone, smiling, "Sorry for the delay. I've finally found the four-panel comic strip with the lion as the news anchor." In the next moment, his eyes become sharp and he asks, "Are you going to target her next?"
On social media, he garnered attention with comments such as, "Takuto Teranishi was cool even for a moment," "His appearance was only for a few seconds but his presence was incredible," "The way his eyes changed from a smile to an expression gave me goosebumps. I want to see more of Terasani-kun's crazy acting," "The final episode of Caster ended on a still ominous note, does that mean there will be a sequel!?" and "I wonder if there will be a sequel? It ended intriguingly so I hope there will be one."
