After finding the photo of him and Linda, Banri runs to the bridge where the accident that caused his amnesia occurred to remember more, but cannot. The spirit of the eighteen-year-old Banri Tada watches him, and explains that the fall caused his eighteen-year-old spirit, and all his memories, to leave his body, and that he cannot be seen or heard by the current Banri. After returning to school, Banri meets Kōko, who gives him a mirror that matches hers to commemorate their friendship. The next day, Banri and Mitsuo run into Kōko, who begins to act overly cheerful and dramatic about her friendship with Banri. Linda, who is helping Kōko register for classes, soon joins them and meets Mitsuo, while later inquiring about Kōko and Banri's joining the Festival Club. Kōko answers that both of them will join, while Banri wonders why Linda has not mentioned that she knows him from before. At their first dance rehearsal, Kōko demonstrates she cannot dance, which causes her to be depressed and cry. After calming down, she apologizes to Banri for her behavior, and confesses that she is still recovering from being dumped by Mitsuo, but he reassures her it is fine, and reaffirms their friendship by using the mirror she gave him. That night, Banri recalls the memory from when he escaped the hospital; he had seen a flashing light from his window, and when he snuck out to see what it was, he discovered it was Linda. As the two talk, she reveals that she was the one who inspired Banri to come to Tokyo. Banri wonders why Linda has not mentioned any of this to him, and the spirit of Banri laments that he cannot tell the current Banri how important Linda was to him.

Banri and Kōko ride the train and discuss Kōko's new Festival Club nickname "RoboGirl", so named because she looks like a robot when she dances.They look forward to the Awa dance festival and the beach trip they have planned. Banri worries about whether Kōko is the one who took the photo of Linda and him from his apartment. They meet up with the rest of the Festival Club, and discuss the preparations needed before the festival. Afterwards Banri speaks with the upperclassmen and asks for advice about his beach trip with Kōko. When they find out that Banri only intends to take her by train for a day trip, they tell him that a classy girl like Kōko won't be happy with the low-budget, simple trip he has planned. They advise him to get a job and make some money. Later Kōko tells him that she doesn't want him to get a job because it would mean they wouldn't get to see each other much. Kōko offers to pay for both of them on their trip. She tells him that she wants to spend as much time with him as she can, and admits that she worries about what he's doing when they're not together. She says that she knows she is awkward, overbearing, and annoying, but says she's learning to hold back. Kōko then tells Banri that she wishes she could shrink him down so that she can keep him with her in her bag for safety. Oka-chan walks up and says hello, then announces that she is on her way to her part time job. Oka-chan advises Banri that her employer is looking for more people, so they follow her to the upscale cafe where she works. Kōko, though, forbids Banri from working. Banri visits Nana to pay her back for cab fare and bring her cookies. Upon finding out Banri needs money, Nana invites him to be a waiter at a weekend party. She also insists he bring Mitsuo with him. Mitsuo resists the idea until the Tea Club tries to recruit them for questionable employment. On the night of the party Banri tells Mitsuo that Kōko had wanted to come over, but that he told her he had to work on a report. At the party, Banri finds himself dressed as a maid. The party host offers Mitsuo an extra 10,000 yen to wear nothing but a flesh-colored Speedo, which he accepts. While waiting on party-goers, Banri sees that Linda is also working at the party dressed as a devil girl. Meanwhile, Kōko is unable to contact Banri as he is not carrying his phone with him at the party.

Banri arrives at the Golden Time restaurant where the Festival Club is setting up for a gathering at the Fireworks Extravaganza and the club members are strangely welcoming and eerily nice, which sets Banri on edge. He figures out that they are trying to comfort him after his and Kōko's supposed breakup. But when Kōko arrives they clear up the confusion, only to create a new misunderstanding with former fourth year members. Linda also arrives late and Linda, Kōko and Banri discuss the accident. Banri asks about how she knew about it since she was out of town, but Linda answers vaguely. Linda then asks if Banri will be going home and he says he will, so Linda brings up that there will be a class reunion and wonders if Banri will come. After Kōko makes the decision for him, Kōko and Banri talk about how Banri is ready to face his past after their frank fight earlier, and Kōko admits that her love for Banri has grown more after that fight, and encourages him to return home. The next day Banri is on a train home. Meanwhile, Chinami had invited Kōko to help her unpack, and invites Kōko to stay overnight, but while Kōko denies that she was there to help and will not stay, she relents. Chinami then reveals how she respects how amazing her love for Banri is. Elsewhere, at the club where Linda works, Mitsuo and Linda talk while she cleans and Mitsuo asks if telling her about the accident was a bad thing. Mitsuo then discovers that Linda will also be gone like Banri will be, and then sees her train tickets going to the same place as Banri, but when he presses her a bit about it and tries to playfully flirt, Linda storms off. The next day, 2D, Kōko and Mitsuo are enjoying a treat at a cafe and Mitsuo and 2D discuss what they think they know about Banri's true situation with his amnesia. When Mitsuo asks Kōko about it she deflects the question and focuses on other things, leaving Mitsuo to brood on this new-found knowledge.
