Episode 4. The Devil Awakens
📖 Episode Summary
In Episode 4, the story escalates as both realms edge closer to catastrophe. The White Rabbit has successfully acquired both halves of the Sparda amulet, as well as the legendary sword, positioning him to tear open the barrier between Earth and Hell. Meanwhile, Dante is being transported by DOTCOM after his capture, unaware of the full plan unfolding around him. However, not all is as it seems. Anders, revealed to be a double agent, triggers a bloody mutiny mid-flight, leaving Dante in the middle of a conflict between corrupted soldiers and those still loyal to the mission. During the chaos, Dante begins to experience disjointed flashbacks — painful memories of his past, his mother, and his unknown origins. When all seems lost, Dante unlocks a hidden power within himself: the Devil Trigger. His transformation marks a turning point in the battle, and he emerges as a true hybrid — part human, part demon. As Mary and the remaining operatives confront the truth about Dante's bloodline, the episode concludes with a massive portal beginning to open, threatening the world with a full demonic invasion.
