What is a Roidmude's Last Dream? (ロイミュードの最後の夢とはなにか, Roimyūdo no Saigo no Yume wa nani ka) is the forty-fifth episode of Kamen Rider Drive. This also marks the death of Chase.
Synopsis[]
Gold Drive, after mercilessly attacking Heart, Medic, and the three Kamen Riders, goes to the “Promised Land”. He also has the Grim Reaper Roidmudes storm the Kuruma Driver's License Center and incapacitate the Special Unit. The last stage of Banno’s preparations for a second Global Freeze has commenced. Drive and the others, having barely survived the attack, go after Gold Drive. The final battle has begun but Chase does something unexpected. Meanwhile, Akira Hayase, Shinnosuke's former partner, despite not being fully recovered from the injury he suffered from the first Global Freeze, gets ready to go into the battle once again.

- The opening sequence has returned to normal and no longer shows clips previewing Drive's summer film.
- Brain is still shown despite being killed off last week.

The scene reused from the opening.
- One of the scenes in this episode reuses a footage from the opening of Tridoron dodging claw-like machines that pop out from the ground.
The Kamen Riders and Super-Evolved Roidmudes teamed-up.
- The team-up of the three Riders and two Super-Evolved Roidmudes is similar to the team-up of the core three Gekirangers and the RinJyuKen Warriors.
- This episode marks the first time Heart fights Roidmudes, discounting when he along with Brain and Chase aided the Kamen Riders against Megahex's Plain Roidmudes (Lost Number) in Movie War Full Throttle.
- During the confrontation between the Riders-Roidmudes team-up and Banno, Heart's pointing finger upward is a reference to Soji Tendo's signature 'point to the sky' style mostly seen in Kamen Rider Kabuto.
- Despite Chase's death in this episode, he would return in the final episode but only in a flashback
- His actor, Taiko Katono, would portray Koichi Kano in the near-end of episode 47.
- The security camera footage given to the heroes has the date 9/6/2015, the date this episode aired on.
- Final appearance of Deadheat Mach, Chase's Mashin Chaser form, and the Mass Production Model Mach.

- Coincidentally, it aired on the same day which the premiere episode of Kamen Rider W was aired.
