Shichifushigi no Hitotsu
The guys are beating up Kume because they think he has lied to them about Keisuke's date. Keisuke stops them although he doesn't know that he is the cause of it. When he is away, Narita enters and says they shouldn't worry, because it's only a one time event and never has there emerged a steady couple from this event, even more, he says that it only brings bad luck for the ones who did the date.

Back in his room, Keisuke ponders about Nakanishi, apparently he was a great fan of him in his youth (an example). Suddenly someone knocks on his door. It's a third year student who tries to barter a couple of pet-raising books. Keisuke doesn't pay attention because he is called away for a phone call. It's Ninomiya who asks him how to raise the chick. He scolds her for buying a chick without knowing how to raise it. She protests, but the only thing he can offer is to go to the library the next day. Ami is angry and throws down the phone. In the corridor the third year student still tries to barter his books without any success. Suddenly, Keisuke gets an idea. At the girls' dorm Ami and a friend are desperately trying to find out what to give the chick to eat. Standing at the open window, Ami is getting worried. Suddenly she gets something thrown against her head. When she grabs the object she sees that it is a book about raising pets. {PVH}

Nesshin na Koochi
[Cold-hearted Coach]
The next day, Keisuke is on the school grounds and gets suddenly wet from water poured down by a teacher (looks exactly like a bald Hitler) who is watering plants. Ninomiya crosses him, but she is again very cold. He tries to start a conversation, but she reminds him of the fact that it was a one day date. Seki and Kyoutarou have watched the scene and are making fun of Keisuke being dumped and that it will only bring him bad luck. He takes his revenge by saying to them that if they want bad luck they only have to stand here, turn 3 times and say loudly BALD. Seki calls him an idiot, but they try it out and... get wet. The bald teacher was still watering his plants and doesn't like to be called bald. At the swimming pool, Seki is working out on a machine in the training room. Other guys are astonished about the heavy resistance he is using (a swim simulator). Seki challenges Keisuke to try it himself. Keisuke answers that they can as well go to swim if Seki is getting worried about his health. Seki chuckles that he probably doesn't want to be compared. In the pool, Keisuke gives Seki a hard time and scolds him repeatedly for his bad swimming style. In the evening, we see Keisuke coming out from the training room. He runs into Ami, who is coming from the pool and asks him if he doesn't have any bandages for her chafed knee. He says yes and asks her to wait for him here. When walking away, he suddenly wants to scold her for being so cold that morning, but when seeing her standing against the wall he doesn't say a thing. Seki and Kyoutarou enter the training room, and Kyoutarou is surprised that Seki wants more training on the machine. Seki says that he won't loose against Keisuke. Kyoutarou reminds him that Keisuke has been third on the national interhigh. Seki responds that a genius like him cannot loose against a guy like... but suddenly he stops and remarks the incredible resistance at which the machine has been set. He asks to Kyoutarou if he uses the machine but Kyoutarou says no. Seki wonders who could be using the machine at such a resistance. We see Keisuke leaving with a package of bandages in his hand. {PVH}

Keisuke
[Keisuke]
Minami has a visitor. It is the old man Keisuke and she met on their date. He has come to return the money of the taxi-ride. When he talks about Keisuke as if he were Ami's boyfriend, she gets upset. He also gives her a little present: a photograph of a little boy and a little girl playing with a rucksack. At first, Ami doesn't get it, but finally she realizes that that's her and Keisuke on the picture. The old man explains: his family knows the Yamato and Ninomiya family already a long time. When Ami and Keisuke were born, the Yamato's and Ninomiya's were too busy running the shops to take care of the children. Having lots of spare time, the old man offered to babysit the two children from time to time. He always kept it a secret to the one family that he was also babysitting for the rival family. That's why Ami and Keisuke could play a lot together when they were little. The old man leaves and Ami thinks about what he said to her. The photograph brings memories up and she now even remembers taking baths together with Keisuke. This thought embarrasses her and she decides to keep it a secret.

Back in her room, she hears one of her friends calling on "keisuke". Her friend has baptised the little chick. Ami isn't pleased with the name keisuke, after all they don't know yet if the chick is male or female. Her friend says that the chick doesn't respond to any other name. Ami tries a lot of names fruitlessly, but keisuke is the only name to which the chick replies. {PVH}

Katte na Yatsu
[Egotistical Guy]
At the training, the coach prepares for a confrontation with Keisuke. He wants Keisuke to continue with crawl and still remembers Keisuke opposing against it (because he only became third on the junior high finals). Much to his surprise, Keisuke doesn't protest the coach's decision.

Ami calls for Keisuke. He thinks she wants to pester him again, but she only came to give him the money the old man returned. Keisuke asks her for the name of the man, because he has the impression knowing him from somewhere. Keisuke thinks very hard and Ami notices that he is on the right track. She quickly comes up with a fake name.

Back in the dorm, Keisuke looks at the poster of Nakanishi he put up and pretends asking him for a signature. Ami is still upset by the thought of Keisuke and her being youth friends. {PVH}
