Tsugumi becomes upset when she receives a letter from her mother informing her that her dog, Pochi, had gotten involved in an accident, and ends up lashing out at Meme for forgetting things so easily. That night, Tsugumi and Anya follow Meme during one of her sleepwalks, winding up at the hidden research room where they are discovered by Akane and Clay. Meme is taken into custody, as Sid believes that her sleepwalking and forgetfulness may be the result of being under Shaula's hypnosis. As Tsugumi and Anya become conflicted on what to do, they receive a message from Meme asking them to come see her. However, when they break her out, she is revealed to have been possessed by Shaula and escapes. Sid chases after Shaula, who has possessed some of his men, but is outsmarted by her and found dead by the time Tsugumi and the others arrive. Later on, Akane and Clay reveal they were hired as bodyguards for Anya, who is really Princess Anastasia Yngling, ordered with escorting her back home should anything happen to Sid, leaving Tsugumi stunned.
