Interrupted from reveling at the full moon by his growling stomach, Momotar? decides to seek some sunflower seeds and becomes infatuated with a female squirrel prior to transporting his payload. Unfortunately, Momotar? loses his balance and unwisely tries to save the seeds—the penalty of which is induction into the slipstream of a passing truck and being electrocuted. Several hours later, Kaoru discovers the unconscious Momotar? during the return trip home from school and immediately decides to nurse him back to health at home—a decision that Shiho and Aoi are not entirely thrilled with. During his metempsychotic possession of a bird, Akira spotting an abandoned laboratory in the forest prompts Minamoto to call a recess and investigate. Meanwhile, after Kaoru cautiously attempts to feed Momotar? (who snaps awake to angrily chomp her finger not understanding her intentions), Shiho psychometrically discovers that Momotar? has no memory. Kashiwagi's arrival to keep an eye on the girls complicates things with the prospect of Momotar?'s dysphoric discovery. Another psychotic episode of Momotar? acting out prompts Minamoto to explain that residential coexistence with Momotar? is impossible because of the wartime experimentation done on him. As if to prove Minamoto's situational ethics correct, Momotar? recovering himself to again jump to conclusions ignites another battle. After objecting to Minamoto chasing after Momotar? on the grounds that he is what she along with Shiho and Aoi once were—a maltreated creature whose life is of the same priceless value that theirs are, Kaoru leads her teammates after Hatsune and convince her to stand down before confronting Momotar?. Ky?suke arrives to aid Kaoru with the sentiment that espers can only be truly understood by another esper before departing with Momotar? (who has come to his senses enough to truly understand Kaoru's intentions). In aggregate, it has been demonstrated that Minamoto truly practices what he preaches regarding the ethical challenges of using defensive force and of all life having the same priceless value.
