Meanwhile, Goemon is sitting on a cliffside; a rattlesnake attempts to bite him, but he smoothly jumps away. However, his landing places him on a loose stone, causing him to slide down the cliff face and land near a gravestone at the bottom. Before he can find out more, a little girl singing a sweet tune, Mary, and her dog Joe come to visit the grave. Mary, who is blind, reveals that the grave is her mother's. What's more, she's blind, but her father tells her as soon as he saves up enough money, she can go into Los Angeles and have an operation to restore her sight. Feeling Goemon's long hair and robes, she mistakes him for the angel her mother said would bring happier times; not wanting to disappoint her, the samurai flees, causing a bird to fly from a nearby bush. One of its feathers lands across Mary's face, confirming her belief, and she and Joe happily run off in pursuit, with her calling for "her angel".
 
That night, as Mary goes to bed, she tells her father, the old bearded farmer, about the angel she met. Afterward, the farmer answers a phone call from Fujiko...he is Harry Zettler after all. Fujiko tells him Lupin will take the diamonds the next day, but the mercenary is not to harm the thief. On hearing Fujiko say she wants to split the loot 50/50, Zettler furiously smashes the phone. He trims off his beard, loads up his weapons, and transforms himself into the soldier he used to be.
 
Back at the bank, Zenigata is inspecting the vault and security measures when he realizes Lupin is under them as they speak, using acid to dissolve a hole in the floor of the vault. When he tries to capture Lupin in the tunnel, the thief manages to trap Zenigata with his own handcuffs before he and Jigen successfully enter. As the two thieves gleefully grab the gems, an explosion comes from the vault door; the heavily-armed Zettler has arrived to claim the diamonds to pay for Mary's operation. The mercenary chases the two thieves and their loot back through the tunnels; both make it to helicopters and fly out of the city, where Zettler is shot down by Lupin and Jigen. He returns the favor with a rocket launcher; the two begin to duel in an empty canyon. Zettler has prepared for this and has weapons such as bazookas and grenades stashed everywhere. He bombards the thieves with artillery, to the point Jigen and Lupin consider surrendering. Lupin manages to figure out where the last weapon is, but before he can go after it, Zettler fires a rocket at them, dead on target.
