RUIN AN ARRANGED MARRIAGE!

Reiji stopped by Ruriko's house to hand her a pot of flowers. Reiji asked Ruriko to join their Political Club. Ruriko did not know what to say because it was too soon to decide. Reiji told her how he always wanted her to join because she had a clear mind and a good judgment. After talking, Reiji invited Ruriko to walk with him so that he can listen to her ideas. Ruriko made an excuse that she needed to wake up a sleepy head (Shun) next door. Meanwhile, Shun was scratching in his sleep. Reiji realized that Ruriko liked Shun more than him. And Ruriko went "WHAT?!" Reiji admitted his defeat against Shun. Reiji told her that he would not lose next time, then he walked off.

Ruriko entered her room, thinking about what Reiji said, then she put the flowers on the table (the table was adjacent to the window) — only to see a dressing up Shun (not really bad, he had his pants on) from the window. Ruriko yelled at a voice the whole village would hear, "First thing in the morning! How indecent!" (Episode title)

Ruriko and the others were walking together to Tategami School. Reiko said, "Oh, Kageyama bought flowers to recruit you in their club?" Ruriko told Reiko that she did not know what to do with the flowers. Megumi, who was reading (yes, while walking), whispered that she was just dissatisfied. Shun said he would prefer receiving food. Reiko said, "ahh, cakes first before flowers." Ruriko told Shun that he was not the one who was being recruited by Reiji. Fei clutched Shun's arm and offered to cook Chinese food for him. Kaoru pushed Fei away and voulunteered to cook lunch for Shun instead. Shun agreed. Kaoru promised that she would do her best. Reiko noticed that Miss Ochiai was being forced by a man to enter his car. They all decided to save her. As they go nearer, the man gave up and mentioned to Miss Ochiai that they would be married soon and promised to buy her a nice looking black wedding dress. The rowdy guy climbed back inside his car and drove the car fast towards the direction of Shun and others. The rowdy guy told everyone he passed by to study hard — to be ant slaves of the society. Shun wondered what kind of guy that was. Ruriko asked Miss Ochiai who the guy was, and Miss Ochiai calmly replied that he was the guy she would be marrying. Shun calmly said, "I see". Ruriko asked if she meant that he would be her husband-to-be. Silence. They all yelled, "WHAT?!" Because of Reiko's naivity, she congratulated Miss Ochiai. Kaoru cut in and said that Miss Ochiai could not marry someone like THAT.

In the Clinic, Miss Ochiai mentioned that her grandmother chose a man with aggression because she was slow. Kaoru remarked that aggression had to have a limit. Fei agreed and said that the guy was just rowdy. Ruriko asked Miss Ochiai what she thought about her grandmother choosing a man for her. Miss Ochiai replied that her grandmother told her that a man would look good once married. Ruriko reaffirmed that she was asking her (Miss Ochiai) what she thought and not what her grandmother thought. Ruriko then asked if she liked someone. Miss Ochiai blushed and said she could not tell. Reiko wondered who he was and if they happened to know him. Megane asked if the man wore glasses, as he held up his glasses. Miss Ochiai blushed more and nodded. Megane ran around in his "dream world" and said that an older woman would not be that bad. Bancho interrupted and asked her if that man is strong physically and mentally. Miss Ochiai implied her answer by blushing again. Bancho posed a muscle and said that women should be attracted to strong men. Ruriko coughed-cut in and advised Miss Ochiai that she should let the man know how she felt. Kaoru agreed and announced that she loved Shun. Kaoru told Miss Ochiai that she should do it like she did, because she would be the one who would open her own future.

Later that night in Ruriko's bedroom, Ruriko pondered the vase incident and the Dream Island incident, where Shun both appeared to rescue her. She thought about what she said to Miss Ochiai about telling someone how she felt. Then she remembered Kaoru's courage to confess how she felt for Shun.

The next day in Class 2-A, Shun and Bancho talked about eating in the canteen. Ruriko came in blushing while carrying something in her back. As Ruriko approached Shun, Kaoru entered their classroom and called Shun's attention. Kaoru handed Shun a packed lunch that she made for him. Ruriko noticed incisions in Kaoru's hand. The boys in the room teased Shun that he was a playboy. Shun digged in the food and told Kaoru that it's good. Shun noticed Kaoru's hand and asked what happened to it. Kaoru hid her hand and said that it was from her fall in the stairs. Shun turned to Ruriko and asked what she wanted from him. Ruriko replied that it was nothing, then she told him that she had a business committee meeting, and then she goes out (hiding the box she was carrying). Kaoru informed Shun that Miss Ochiai would be going to her hometown on Saturday. Bancho said that Saturday would be tomorrow.

Ruriko found a place in the rooftop and then sat there. Ruriko opened the box, which revealed a Yotahachi-shaped meat with some squids surrounding it. She grabbed a squid and ate it. Reiji took something from the box and ate it. Ruriko noticed Reiji. Reiji apologized and praised Ruriko that she was not only good in studying but also in cooking. Reiji informed his club would be having its assembly at Yoyogi Park. Reiji asked Ruriko if she would come. Without thinking twice, Ruriko agreed. Reiji noticed Shun and Kaoru below, walking to the Gym Storage. Reiji told Ruriko that some students did some scandalous deed there. Ruriko looked down and saw Shun catching Kaoru in his hands.

//The real thing was, Kaoru was just dizzy because she woke early (to cook Shun's lunch). Shun caught Kaoru with his hand when she was about to fall. Kaoru asked Shun if it was really ok for him to go along with her to the Gym Storage. Shun nodded and said that it would serve as a payment for the lunch she made. They headed to the Gym Storage to get some mats and vaulting horses.//

Reiji remarked that Kaoru and Shun were a good match. Ruriko re-packed her box hastily but organizedly and apologized to Reiji. Ruriko ran off. Reiji reminded Ruriko about the meeting, then he grinned.

All the Gate Keepers reported back to Shirei's emergency call except Ruriko. Shun told Shirei that Ruriko left immediately after school. Shirei said that he would just inform Ruriko in case it would be confirmed. Megumi mumbled that Ruriko was really useless. Shirei informed the Gate Keepers of the Invader wave that was detected a while ago.

Ruriko sinked to her bed and uttered "darn." She looked at the Kaijuu (toy monster of Shun) and pondered a memory of him during their childhood.

The next day, Shun told Ruriko that Miss Ochiai would be leaving for home. Shun mentioned that Kaoru was waiting for them in the limited express. Ruriko having heard of Kaoru's name said that she had to do something. Outside the classroom, Reiji called Ruriko. Ruriko walked to Reiji and his club members. Shun addressed her as Rurippe and asked what was wrong. Ruriko yelled at him to stop calling her Rurippe.

In a train station, the rowdy fiance of Miss Ochiai yelled at her that she was too slow. Miss Ochiai, who was carrying all their bags, asked him why they weren't taking the limited express. Miss Ochiai's fiance told her insultingly that limited express did not match her slowness.

Reiji walked and talked with Ruriko — only with her. Reiji said that their assembly would be their first step for the club. He told Ruriko that he was glad she came. Ruriko was not talking but was thinking of what she and Kaoru told Miss Ochiai. Ruriko stopped and Reiji turned to her, and asked what was wrong. Ruriko apologized and told Reiji that she had to do something. "Tsk!" Reiji mouthed then he posed an evil grin.

Megane and Fei searched all over the limited express station but found no sign of Miss Ochiai. Shun said that if Miss Ochiai made up her mind to marry the rowdy guy, she should have told them. Kaoru expressed her feelings by yelling that it would be ridiculous for Miss Ochiai to marry someone she did not love.

Ruriko arrived to the train station where Miss Ochiai was. (how did she know that she's not in limited express? beats me.) The rowdy guy was ordering Miss Ochiai to buy lunch for him when Ruriko saw them. Ruriko told Miss Ochiai not to marry someone she did not love. The rowdy guy pushed Ruriko and said that Miss Ochiai would be his possession once they got married. Ruriko yelled at the rowdy guy that Miss Ochiai would never be his possession. The rowdy guy was annoyed so he started to get his sunglasses from his pocket. Miss Ochiai tripped to the rowdy guy and he fell off. The rowdy guy bumped to other passengers, and the identical sunglasses of the passengers were scattered all over. Miss Ochiai's pen Invader-detector detected a wierd electrical wave. The rowdy guy grabbed a sunglasses from the pile and wore it, wrong one; tried another, wrong again; until he wore the fifth sunglasses. The rowdy guy transformed into an Invader, similar to Fukuoka, funny looking and less serious too. The people in the station scrambled away. Ruriko and Miss Ochiai ran outside. The Invader followed them and Ruriko told Miss Ochiai to stay behind. Shun and the others appeared. Shirei was with them, stading on the AEGIS battle bus. Miss Ochiai blushed. Shirei informed everyone that the civilians have already evacuated the Ueno Station (the train station...) to let them finish the Invader fiance of Miss Ochiai. Shun attacked with Ultra Whirlwind Slash, Kaoru followed with her Kaoru Kick, Megumi with her wall of steel, Fei with Fire Panda, and Bancho with his Inside circle throw. After those sequential attacks, the Invader was finished.

Shirei and Miss Ochiai had a private talk. Shirei told Miss Ochiai that he did not want her to go home yet because she was his right hand person. Miss Ochiai thanked Shirei. The Gate Keepers (with Bancho) peeked from the back of the battle bus.

The next morning, Ruriko woke up and touched the toy monster while saying, "Tell him how you feel huh… I'm not the same bashful sniveler anymore!". She opened the window to greet the birds Good Morning. In the opposite window, she saw Shun wearing his underwear (on the spot and butt naked!)! Ruriko screamed.

Megumi went out of the restaurant to go to school. Megumi noticed Reiji who was looking at her. Megumi ignored him but when she looked back, Reiji was gone.
