The Film Director Came Back (帰って来た映画監督, Modottekita Eiga Kantoku) is the fourteenth episode of Kamen Rider Wizard.
Plot[]
As Haruto fights a familiar Phantom on a film set, Koyomi starts to think that she remembers some of the people involved in the filming.
Synopsis[]
While out with Haruto, getting a beret, Koyomi sees a strange Plamonster as she and Haruto follow it. But while following Black Cerberus, Haruto ends up leaving Koyomi to follow the Plamonster on her own as he encounters Medusa when she attacks a youth.
Assuming Hurricane Dragon, Kamen Rider Wizard seemingly defeats Medusa as he turned to the youth as he offer to protect him for a while. Arriving to Omokagedo with the youth, Haruto meets an old friend of the youth named Chizuru who reveals his name to be Satoshi Ishi, an aspiring movie director who went missing six months ago.
Elsewhere, ending up in the middle of the forest, Koyomi ventures into a cave where she finds a blue magic stone. As Koyomi returns to Omokagedo to give the stone to Wajima, Haruto and the others go to the campus where Satoshi lived to help him finish editing his movie. However, while Chizuru tells the others how he got her into acting, they find Satoshi gone.
Fearing the worst, Haruto finds Satoshi before finding himself evading numerous attempts on his life. Haruto learns that "Satoshi" is actually the Phantom Lizardman, the first Phantom Haruto encountered six months ago. Battling Wizard so he can escape his execution, Lizardman holds Chizuru hostage being attacked by Medusa who reveals the girl to be a Gate.
