Yachiyo the samurai sword carrying waitress reveals that she started carrying it to ward off bullies back in elementary school. At this time she encounters Kyoko who agrees to act as a body guard in exchange for Yachiyo's lunch. Otou Hyougo, the true restaurant manager, returns to the store after another unsuccessful search for his lost wife. His wife who has the worlds worst sense of direction got lost years ago while out shopping.

Otoo returns to Wagnaria once again this time bringing with him a new waitress, Yamada Aoi. Aoi tells a "tragic tale of woe" to which Takanashi responds that she is a liar. Reluctantly he ends up training Aoi in how to be a waitress. As the day progress she tries to assign the various staff members into a fake family structure.

Popura becomes upset with Sota constantly calling her small. Later, Sota becomes devastated when Kyoko kills a bug, inadvertently insulting Popura and Inami in the process.

Aoi becomes curious about Hiroomi's secret life and drags Popura into stalking him, despite the fact he is completely aware of it. Later, Popura tries to get Sota to treat Mahiru nicer. Tired of Jun's teasing, Popura tries to get revenge on him which does not go to plan. Meanwhile, Aoi acts very clingy around Otoo after he comes back from his recent trip.

Whilst out shopping for some more cream, Kyōko and Yachiyo end up meeting Otoo's long lost wife, Haruna. As Yachiyo debates whether to tell Kyōko about her, she disappears again. As Yachiyo feels guilty about it, Mahiru learns about Jun's one-sided crush on Yachiyo and starts feeling sorry for him, leading Sōta to believe she has a crush on Jun. With some support from Jun, Yachiyo apologises to Otoo after he returns and cheers up.

Popura and the others try to think of ways to help Sōta get along better with Kyōko. Wanting to be spoiled in a similar manner to Kyōko, Aoi starts learning how to make parfaits, much to the dismay of Jun. In order to stop Kyōko from eating everything in the store, Hiyoomi tells a white lie which leaves her stunned. When Sōta finds a lost girl, Kyōko is told to look after her, and even avoids taking her food. After the girl is reunited with her mother, Jun gives Kyōko some food as thanks.

Popura and Jun end up catching colds due to Aoi's clumsiness, so Kyōko calls in two of her juniors, Yohei and Mitsuki Mashiba, twin siblings who don't get along. When Kyōko offers to put someone else in charge of looking after Inami, Sōta becomes upset and falls out with Inami, but Inami soon manages to build up the courage to make up with him.

Mahiru meets a boy calling himself Kirio Yamada, who she believes might be Aoi's brother. As he is able to withstand her punches, Mahiru ends up conversing well with Kirio, who starts developing feelings for her, but Sōta becomes downhearted when he sees the two getting along. He begins acting strangely the next day and ends up bashing his head against the wall, leading him to think he might've become a masochist. Later, Kozue manages to get the waitresses to dress up in animal cosplay.

Aoi searches for her teddy bear, Daisy, only to find that Jun had just put it in her room. Later, Yachiyo overhears a conversation between Jun and Mitsuki and assumes the two are going out with each other. As Jun notices her weird behaviour, he takes some advice from Popura to put some pressure on himself to sort things out with her.
