While doing modelling work, Mahiru hears about a mysterious model known as Shooting Star who vanished from the public eye one day. Back at the Venus Ark, Mahiru takes an interest in Rei after she uses kendo skills to stop her cat from stealing food, clashing with her own ideal that karate is the greatest martial art. Just as the two prepare to face against each other, they are alerted to an intruder sneaking aboard the ark. Using some advice from Rei similar to that she received during her shoot, Mahiru manages to catch the intruder, who turns out to be Ako trying to find out Kirara's weakness. Later, after Elsa performs at a welcoming party, the girls learn Koharu is designing the dresses for Elza's brand, while it is hinted that Rei is Shooting Star herself.
