Souta spends the day looking after the little girl who came before, leading Popura to start feeling a little left out. The next day, Aoi comes across Haruna, seeing her as a potential mother and bringing her to Wagnaria, where the other staff try to keep her put until Otoo returns, but she somehow manages to escape regardless.

Realizing that he and Yachiyo both have the same day off, Jun finally finds the courage to ask her out for drinks. Meanwhile, Yamada devises multiple plans to get Sota to pet her again.

While Sōta remains stressed over the other day's events, Izumi, assuming he had broken up with Popura, tries to set Sōta and Mahiru up with each other, unaware of the actual circumstances between them.

As Popura becomes more aware of the relationships blooming around her, she and Aoi question Otoo about the restaurant's stance on romantic relationships. Later, Minegishi comes to the restaurant to tell Sōta something and gets punched by Mahiru, leading her to feel she hasn't gotten over her androphobia, but Sōta manages to calm her down.
