Tony, now knowing that the world was now ending, called his family in Tokyo in an attempt to warn them. As Tony waits for Wil to speak to him, a massive earthquake hit Japan, and with Tony not able to do anything but listen, the call disconnects.

In the kitchen, Tony learns that Japan has been hit by a massive earthquake and that parts of it have sank into the ocean. Tony told Harry that he called, but was too late. Harry tries to console Tony, but everything in the ship begins tilting to one side, and those in the kitchen clinging to whatever they can. Tony loses his grip on the table and falls, the tsunami capsizing the ship and drowning everyone on board.
