Momo, Renji, and Izuru stepped forward despite having been told to get out of the area, and saved Hisagi from almost certain death. More Hollows appeared but then Sousuke Aizen (Captain 5th Division) and Gin Ichimaru (at that time Lieutenant 5th Division) showed up and dealt with the Hollows.

The episode ends back in the present with Momo, similar to Renji, deciding she's been languishing in a jail cell for too long.
