The episode also reveals how Denji met Pochita as a child. While Denji is visiting his father's grave, an injured Pochita approached him. Realizing that the devil could heal itself by drinking blood, Denji offers his arm to Pochita and says they now have a contract where the devil will help him survive.

The result of their union is Chainsaw Man, who then kills the Zombie Devil and his zombies.
