After they acquire the Relic, the plan goes awry when they become inadvertent witnesses to the murder of the megacorp’s leader, Saburo Arasaka, at the hands of his treacherous son Yorinobu. Yorinobu covers up the murder by claiming his father had been poisoned, and triggers a security sweep. T-Bug is killed by Arasaka's netrunners. A firefight breaks out as V and Welles make their escape; Welles is fatally wounded, the Relic's protective case is critically damaged, and V is forced to save the Relic by inserting the biochip into the cyberware in their own head.
