The Fable Episode 4 -

Youko: "Don't. Boss said no. Kuroishi is a test. He wants to see if the legend is still sharp."

Kuroishi, on the night bus, holds his broken wrist. He’s still smiling. He dials a phone.

Akira: "Nobody dies. Debt settled. You don’t owe me. I don’t owe you. Leave Osaka."

Flashcut: A memory. Five years ago. Akira (Fable) is tied to a chair. Kuroishi holds a revolver to his temple, then lowers it. "Killing a ghost is boring." He walks away.

Akira tails Kuroishi to a meet with Takeda. Kuroishi is supposed to negotiate peace, but instead he pulls a knife. Akira watches from a ventilation tower. He doesn’t move.
