At the time of the opening of the monument in his honor, the hero himself appears, having returned to his homeland. It turns out that Bashlet Jr. was actually only shell-shocked, not killed. He uses the current situation to call on the audience to stop the imperialist war. This is followed by his arrest and charges of imposture.
