Budd calls Elle and offers to sell her Beatrix Kiddo's Hanzo sword for a million dollars and she agrees. She drives to Budd's trailer with a suitcase full of money. Budd tells Elle what he did to Beatrix and he offers her a drink. He tells her what grave she was buried in and Elle looks at the Hanzo sword. She asks him how Beatrix's sword compares to the one Budd had and he tells her no Hanzo sword can be compared to another. He asks her if she is filled with relief or regret knowing Beatrix is dead. She tells him she feels regret and Budd opens the suitcase full of money. As he is pulling out the stacks of money, he is suddenly struck by a black mamba multiple times. Elle pulls out a notepad and tells him the fatality stats of the black mamba. Before he dies, Elle tells Budd the biggest regret she feels is that he killed Beatrix and not someone else better skilled. As Elle is collecting the money back up and putting it back into the suitcase, she gets a call from Bill and tells him Budd is dead and blames his death on Beatrix who she says she then killed. Elle offers to come over and see Bill and as she is leaving Budd's trailer, Beatrix attacks her. They fight and Beatrix finds the Hanzo sword Bill had given Budd hidden away.

Beatrix and Elle sword fight until Beatrix manages to pluck out Elle's remaining good eye. Beatrix squishes Elle's eye and leaves her in the trailer with the black mamba.
