It's the first day of class, where the freshmen are introduced to their second-year student advisors, and when the students try to stand out. The freshmen also gets to visit the backstage of the Kouka Theater. While on tour, Sarasa chanced upon a door left ajar. Andou-sensei, the instructor who accompanied them, tells her not to enter, but it was too late. Sarasa entered a door that actually leads directly to the stage area. As she wanders onto the stage, Ai is dazzled by Sarasa's stage presence, especially when the lighting crew, mistaking her for a staff member, pops a spotlight on her. Meanwhile, as all this is happening, Ai's stalker has arrived at Kobe.
