As Kiritsugu and Saber arrive at the theater on separate paths, Saber is attacked by a gun-wielding Berserker in the underground parking lot. Meanwhile, Rider and Waver encounter Archer on the bridge. As they share a final toast before their duel, Rider asks Archer to join forces with him and conquer the world and beyond, but Archer politely declines. Saber manages to destroy Berserker's gun, but is startled to find he knows the exact length of her sword. She ask for his true identity, and Berserker removes his mask to reveal Sir Lancelot, one of Saber's most trusted knights, gravely shocking her. At the same time, a dying Kariya begins hallucinating due to his guilt over Aoi. Rider summons Ionian Hetairoi and he and his army charge at Archer. Archer pulls out his sword Ea and uses his Noble Phantasm Enuma Elish to destroy Rider's army and Ionian Hetairoi, sending them back into real world. Rider asks Waver if he would like to become his retainer, to which he agrees. Rider pulls out Waver from his horse and orders him to live on and pass down the tale of his final battle. Rider charges at Archer and is slain by Ea, but not before Archer tells Rider that he respects him as his equal. In admiration of his loyalty to Rider, Archer spares Waver's life and departs, leaving Waver mourning. Kiritsugu finally reaches Kirei, who has laid out his wife's body on the theater's stage.
