Whereas Shinnosuke is distracted from watching the Yawara's finals match by a blonde he picked up, Matsuda finally reaches the stadium but has trouble going past the guards to get close to ringside as the match gets under way. Although he tries to rush the ring, he is arrested by security, but Jody rescues him. The taxi driver fan helps him yell cheers loud enough for her to hear, and she defeats Krushcheve with her trademark quick ippon zeoi after she notices Matsuda at the ringside. Matsuda and Yawara look for the taxi driver, but he already left without charging Matsuda taxi fare. However, all Matsuda can talk about is judo again, and he does not understand Yawara's real feelings at all, who does not seem to mind.
For the free weight finals match, Teleshikova defeats Canada's Kristin Adams with her uranage, a scene which is not shown and only related by a report filed by Matsuda. Matsuda does further searching for his taxi driver savior, but is unable to locate him.
