Synopsis[]
- Homosapiens does not progress to the next round of N-1, instead losing the spot to Bonnou Illumination. After Baba leaves for another gig, Nagashima shows up to ask Shibagaki to partner up with him when the duo eventually splits up, though Shibagaki rejects the offer.
- Yano tells Sekiguchi about Dobu being shot after his getaway (Dobu thinking that Skull Mask was who shot him), and sends a "declaration of war" to Dobu. Sekiguchi then shows Yano Imai's new tweet saying that he had lied about winning the one billion yen, but Yano quickly realizes that the picture is edited and has Sekiguchi find out where he's living.
- Odokawa picks up Yamamoto, who urges him to sell the data since his other potential buyer is part of the yakuza, and hints at a threat. Yamamoto claims that Mystery Kiss is his dream, and that he is willing to do anything for it. Odokawa reveals that he is aware of Ichimura's badger games, and Yamamoto asks what he has to do to prevent him from leaking this information. Odokawa, to his surprise, offers Yamamoto the data if he betrays his gang and allies with Odokawa.
- Odokawa explains his plans to take down the gang, but when Yamamoto realizes the actual power balance between the two of them, he starts to strangle Odokawa, reminding him of a time when he nearly drowned. However, before Yamamoto is able to kill Odokawa, Shirakawa breaks one of the taxi's windows and challenges Yamamoto, using capoeira to take him down. Yamamoto asks for forgiveness, and Odokawa advises that he quit running badger games, join Odokawa, and allow himself to be caught by the police at the bank heist. He agrees in order to protect Mystery Kiss.
- Odokawa and Shirakawa discuss Dobu's true motivations, and how he feels caught in Dobu's schemes. Shirakawa tries to defend him, but this only strengthens Odokawa's resolve to take him down. During their argument, Odokawa remembers the previous time his window was broken, and finds the GPS Skull Mask had planted to track him. He starts to make a plan using the GPS that will allow him to be finally be rid of his assailant.
- Time skips to December. At the sauna, Odokawa meets Kuroda, who knows him due to him being a person of interest for the missing girl case, though he doesn't suspect him. Kuroda asks him what he wants, but Odokawa says that he only wants to be able to repay the people that have helped him.
- Sekiguchi has successfully located Imai through his other tweets, exciting Yano. Meanwhile, Dobu and Odokawa discuss the bank robbery plan. The plan is as follows: split one billion yen into ten duralumin cases, only hand one to Dobu and fill the rest with counterfeit money, fool Yano into only checking the real case and taking it and the nine fakes, and Dobu and Odokawa driving away with nine-hundred million yen. However, Dobu wants the entire billion yen, and so plans to have Odokawa wait near the bank, have Dobu with the money get in the taxi, have the elder Daimon hold up Yano, drop Dobu off who will then steal Yano's car, and meet back up where they began for the rest of the money. Dobu dubs this plan, "ODDTAXI". Instead of receiving a cut of the money, Odokawa tells Dobu that he only wants him to take care of Skull Mask, and end their partnership.
- Dobu concedes, and asks him for the truth about who the girl in Odokawa's dash cam data is. He says that she isn't the missing girl, but that she is the only one who matches the descriptions. Odokawa recognizes her as Mitsuya.
- Odokawa confirms the robbery plans with Yamamoto on the phone, where he will have Yano find out about the counterfeit money, and call the police. Koshiro Daimon calls, but Odokawa doesn't pick up. He then visits Imai at his new apartment, and tells him that the yakuza will come the next day to kidnap him. He tells him to be patient and comply with Yano's demands, and reassures him that he will be saved.
- At Odokawa's old school, Gouriki asks the principle about Odokawa's accident. At Odokawa's house, he watches a news report about the body from the bay being identified as Yuki Mitsuya, though Odokawa knows this to be false.
