First Half

Karin is sitting in her timeship, wondering what she is going to do about the Mega-Playboy when she gets a video call from her boss, Yokomori. Karin panics and quickly says that she actually missed when she tried to shoot Junta and so nothing had actually been done, and then hangs up before Yokomori could respond.

Junta is lying in his bed, wondered how he can woo Karin, and then comes up with the idea of buying her a present, but doesn't know what to get.

Next we see Ami and Kotomi talking in Ami's family's restaurant. Kotomi is asking why Ami ran off for the previous night, to which Ami responds that it was nothing. Kotomi then starts talking about how good Junta is at fighting, and said that it was exciting to see Junta beating up the thugs in the cafe. Ami has a slightly surprised look, but Kotomi tells Ami not to worry since she has "first dibs" on Junta, to which Ami says that she doesn't have any dibs on Junta.

Junta then enters the restaurant. Ami is still mad at Junta, and asks him what he wants. Junta asks Ami for advice about what type of present he should get a girl he likes. Ami tells him to get a necklace, noting that the more expensive it is, the more the girl will appreciate it.

While Ami tells Kotomi that it isn't what it seems, and that Junta doesn't really have a girlfriend, she is clearly distressed about the possibility of Junta liking someone else.

Junta runs to the mall, and Karin, wondering what Junta is doing, goes after him.

Junta only has ¥5000 to spend, and is having problems finding a necklace to buy, looking at one shop for over an hour. Finally Junta finds a necklace for ¥4800 and figures that he can afford it after taxes.^[1]

Just as Junta is buying the necklace, Tomoko walks into the store. She asks him who he bought the necklace for, obviously expecting it to be her. She then takes it and puts it on.

Junta turns into the Mega-Playboy and starts feeding Tomoko more smooth talk. In response, Karin grabs a cart and runs at Junta and Tomoko with it. Junta turns back into his normal self just in time, and grabs Tomoko and jumps out of the way.

Junta starts becoming concerned that he'll not be able to get the necklace back from Tomoko. She then invites Junta to go shopping with her, telling him that there is no ditching her, and that he's a real playboy, being all seductive at one instant and being hard-to-get the next.

We then see Junta carrying several boxes and bags as Tomoko takes some clothes into a dressing room. Junta thinks that now that he isn't looking at her face, he can tell her the truth about the necklace. He stands next to the changing room, and quickly glances at it. However, there is a crack in the curtain and he sees Tomoko's panties. This immediately causes him to feel sick.

He finally recovers from being sick, and tries to tell Tomoko again, but Tomoko grabs him and pulls him into the dressing room with her. She is only wearing panties and a tank top, and is pressing herself against Junta, making him feel sick again. She asks him if he wants to "do it" right there, and that it'll be a kick knowing people are outside. She grabs his hand and places it on her butt.

An employee at the store walks to the dressing room and asks her how it fits. When Tomoko doesn't respond, she begins to open the curtains to the dressing room.

Second Half

The employee opens the curtains and sees Tomoko standing there holding up a dress, behind which Junta is hiding. Tomoko says she doesn't know how to wear it. Meanwhile, Junta's face is being pushed into Tomoko's panties from behind. Finally enough is enough, and he pukes everywhere.

Next we see Junta waiting outside of a restroom waiting for Tomoko to finish cleaning herself up, thinking that Tomoko is going to hate him. Tomoko comes out and walks by Junta, looking angry.

Junta starts to ask for the necklace back when Tomoko tells Junta that they're not finished yet and that Junta has to take her where she wants to go. When Junta asks where, she says she would like to see his bedroom, which causes both Junta and Karin to panic.

In his room, Junta begins to think if Tomoko is weird herself for wanting to still hang out, and Tomoko can see it, mentioning that maybe she is weird, saying that she wants to be with Junta even though she doesn't know why.

Tomoko sits in a way which reveals her panties, making Junta sick again. She asks if Junta hates her. Junta turns into the Mega-Playboy, says that he doesn't believe that there is a man alive who could hate her, and then immediately turns back into normal Junta. Junta tries to backtrack, but then starts turning into the Mega-Playboy and back rapidly. Karin wonders if Tomoko will turn Junta into the Mega-Playboy permanently.

Karin runs into Ami's house, grabs her, and takes her to outside of Junta's room. She plans on throwing Ami into the room if Junta turns into the Mega-Playboy again.

Tomoko says that she sometimes sees Junta as a loser but other times her body is telling her to be with Junta. She says that her DNA is ordering her to be with Junta. Junta says that he doesn't buy the idea that Tomoko's DNA is telling her what to do.

This catches Tomoko off guard, and Junta finally gets up the guts to tell her that the necklace was for someone else and to please give it back.

Tomoko appears angry for a moment, mentioning what an obvious playboy Junta is. She then lightens up and says that they're even now, because she hurt Junta before.

Tomoko opens the door revealing Karin and Ami standing outside. Tomoko gives the necklace to Ami, saying that Junta didn't really get angry in the cafe fight until the thug punched Ami, and that she knew then that Junta really loved Ami. She warned Ami that she wasn't going to stop until Junta was hers, however.

Karin first thinks that Ami getting the necklace is for the best, but then starts to feel sad at the idea that Junta and Ami may in fact get together.
