A shadowy religious group decides to release a serial killer named Georg to deal with Ecarlate. Meanwhile, as the party stops to rest in another town, Mariandale and Sainglain are both shocked by the appearance of a cowlick (ahoge) sprouting on Ecarlate's head. They immediately rent out the entire inn and cater to her every whim, afraid of what will happen if they anger her during her "hyperactive period." Later that night, Georg sneaks into the inn to kill Ecarlate, but gets beaten by each bodyguard and then accidentally awakens Ecarlate's hyperactive form...
