Nodoka is planning to leave the Tendo household the following morning. Akane schedules an appointment between Ranma and Nodoka to meet in the nearby park, and later in a restaurant. However, Genma intervenes and tries to prevent them from seeing each other. Nodoka walks towards a water main thereafter, in which it explodes, pushing her up into the sky. Ranma reluctantly saves her, while she is able to catch a glimpse of her son before she faints. When she awakens, she sees Ranma in female form, convinced that she was just dreaming. The episode wraps up with Ranma and Akane both saying "See ya!" to the home viewers.
