Recap of Episodes 6 and 7 of Tokyo Vice
In the sixth episode, Following the failed attack on Ishida, Chairman Nakahara, the head of the yakuza’s western division, travels to Tokyo for a peace meeting with Chihara-high-ranking Kai’s members. He makes Tozawa bow and apologise to Ishida, as well as pay a large sum of money to the de-facto leader of Chihara-Kai.
After Ishida and the others have vanished, it is revealed that Nakahara dispatched Tozawa to Tokyo to conquer the east for them. He was aware of Ishida’s murder plots. He cautions Tozawa not to fail again before departing.
Ishida gives Jake information regarding Tozawa’s meth cargo. When he brings it to Katagiri, the latter informs him that they will have to wait, much to Jake’s dismay. Jake speaks to Maruyama and appears to persuade him to launch a raid after chatting with Eimi, who reminds him that he does not work for Katagiri.
However, nothing appears to have been discovered, and Jake’s carefully cultivated relationships with the Japanese police are ruined in the process.
In episode 7, Eimi instructs Jake to investigate a case involving a woman who was murdered by her partner. She believes it is part of a pattern in which homicides have occurred as a result of police failure to respond to women’s pleas for assistance against their abusive relationships.
Despite Eimi and her team’s efforts and the significance of the topic, the article is eventually published on one of the inside pages and receives no attention. Jake tries to use Misaki, Tozawa’s mistress, as a source in addition to assisting Eimi with her piece. Meanwhile, Tozawa passes out during a function, unwittingly revealing that something is wrong with him.
Which Police Officer Is Corrupt in Tokyo Vice Episode 7?
Miyamoto has been providing information to Tozawa; it is revealed near the end of episode 6. Jake was told the truth by Ishida. That airliner did have meth on it. However, Miyamoto, who was in charge of the search, ensured that the narcotics would not be discovered.
As a result, despite the fact that the drug route is always near to Tozawa, the gang members are never apprehended by the authorities. Katagiri decides to put up a trap after the body of the engineer who recovered the medications for the Tozawa washed up.
He informs other agencies that Organized Crime is on the verge of apprehending Tozawa, prompting Miyamoto to come snooping. Katagiri explains that they had been working on a case against Tozawa for months and that the engineer was their informant. He also informs the other officer that all evidence against the yakuza boss is being kept in a basement room.
Miyamoto then speaks with Tozawa, who instructs him to find out what kind of proof Katagiri has. He also swears that this will be Miyamoto’s last act of kindness to him. When Miyamoto enters the room, however, all he discovers are empty crates. A camera is mounted on the wall. Katagiri, on the other hand, is keeping an eye on him. Miyamoto understands he’s been caught in the act.
Is Matsuo Dead or Alive in ‘Tokyo Vice’ Episode 7?
Samantha hears a voicemail from a concerned Polina questioning why she hasn’t been returning her calls in the sixth episode. Matsuo is later introduced to her, and she discovers that her father has employed him. Samantha agrees to undergo ten sessions with Matsuo instead of returning home and confronting her father.
Sato, however, learns of this and attempts to intimidate Matsuo, but learns that the other man has ties to high-ranking members of Chihara-Kai. He then kneels in front of Matsuo and asks him to leave Samantha alone. Sato beats Matsuo to death after he reacts with obscenities.
