SALLY FORTH, GATE ROBO!

Giant eggs and a set of giant food were being thrown by Giant Invader Chefs to the Gate Keepers (who were wearing gym uniforms). Megumi defended everyone with her Wall of Steel and at the same time served as an offense to the Chefs by slamming at them. Kaoru hurried everyone to catch up with the Gym Festival. Fei finished the Chefs with her Fire panda. As the Gate Keepers were about to go off, Reiko summoned her Maiden's Prayer and played the piano. Reiko's melody reproduced Giant Chefs! The Giant Chefs reattacked them! Megumi's steel wall blocked Reiko's music in the Giant Chef's direction, thus retaining only one Giant Chef. Shun finished the Giant Chef with his Ultra Whirlwind Slash. Reiko clapped her hands and said, "We did it! Great teamwork, let's go back to the Festival." They (except Megumi) all dropped down to the ground. Megumi whispered that Reiko always get in their way. Reiko heard it and was crushed. (Episode Title)

Reiko counted her dolls in her dormitory room. Reiko thought that she had always been buying souvenirs instead of fighting the Invaders. Shimamura opened the door and informed Reiko to get ready for the practice of her volunteer work. Apparently, her volunteer work was a puppet show play for kindergartens. Reiko played as Cinderella's godmother witch. After Reiko finished her practice she headed to a room. Reiko looked at her witch puppet, who she called Majo-san (Miss Witch), and thought to herself that she could not be like the witch because she always made mistakes. Reiko moved Majo-san and said, "it seems like that…" Reiko asked herself how she could be a good witch.

-The next day- Ruriko practiced her arcchery. Ruriko successfully landed the arrow right into bullseye without any sweat. However, Reiko struggled in trying to stretching the bow. Ruriko asked Reiko if she was alright. Reiko told Ruriko that she wanted to fight like her while pulling the bow without progress . Megumi watched them and remarked, "useless effort."
-
Kaoru led her gym classmates in their jogging. Reiko jogged far behind them. Megumi who watched from a tree remarked, "talentless".
-
Reiko tried whacking Shun with the wooden sword. After NOT hitting Shun, she slipped and fell down. Megumi watched from a lower window and remarked, "Clown."
-
Fei was playing with the kittens when Reiko approached her and asked if she can teach her Fire Panda. Fei told Reiko that it would not help her because Fire Panda was an attack and not illusion. Megumi opened the window near them and remarked, "a burden."

Reiko was alone in the rooftop. She wondered if she was really a failure. A slight snowfall appeared. Behind her was Yukino who gave her an advice(in usual poetic form), "When in doubt with thoughts, one needs to drink a cup of sake." Reiko turned around and asked who spoke but saw a small snowman instead. (^_^ how nice of Yukino)

After the puppet show in Violet Dormitory, the toddlers clapped their hands in appreciation. Reiko played with the children. A girl from the dorm remarked that kids liked Reiko. Shimamura agreed and said that Reiko got along with the kids quite easily because she was like them. Reiko warned the kids to be careful because they may slip in the puddle. Contrary to what Reiko said, she was the one who fell in the mud puddle. A boy said to Reiko, "What am I going to do with you?" Reiko apologized to the boy. The boy forgave Reiko but she should be his girlfriend. Reiko went "KANOJO (girlfriend)?!" A kid called the boy Hideki and said he was too forward. Hideki told Reiko-neechan that their date would be at the zoo. And Reiko went "DEETO (date)?!" Reiko noticed a key dangling in Hideki's neck. The kid told Reiko that Hideki's parents were both at work. Reiko saw herself in Hideki because her parents had always left her with Ms. Ono. Hideki thought that being left alone looked cool. When it was almost sunset, the kids needed to go back home. Reiko waved her puppet-wearing hand and bade goodbye to her little friends. Shimamura praised Reiko that she did well. Reiko told Shimamura that it was because she got along with the children easily. Shimamura told Reiko that she did good in the puppet show because she had shown her powers with the puppets. Shimamura told Reiko that she would make a good witch. Reiko was glad and she thanked Majo-san for it.

Reiko was looking for the staff office (maybe AEGIS Staff office) when she accidentally stumbled in the AEGIS Hangar. Reiko thought the staff office looked different. seems lost in Tategami. Reiko saw Gate Robo and thought it was a giant doll. Megane noticed in his monitoring screen that the Gate Robo had been released by someone. Megane told Bancho that he did not give an order. The robot comically slipped to the ground (Reiko's trademark ^_^;). After the slip, the robot was dragged to its launcher and was launched somewhere.

A boy cried when his balloon flew away from his hand. Reiko in the Gate Robot happened to land somewhere there. Reiko wondered how she would be able to get out. Reiko spotted a balloon in the screen and caught it by operating the robot (Apparently, the robots movements can be controlled by the operator's action). Gate Robo handed the balloon to the boy. The mother of the boy was shocked at the sight of the robot. People enjoyed the appearance of the robot.

AEGIS Operators tried to contact the Gate Robot but its signal was off.

Meanwhile, Reiko knocked at the door of her house to ask Ms. Ono's help. When Ms. Ono saw the robot, she fainted. The robot entered the house (how did the robot fit inside the door?). and even got Ms. Ono to lie down on the sofa. Reiko realized that she was counting on others too much. Reiko thought of making her mother, her father, Ms. Ono, her friends, and everyone happy. Reiko wondered if she was too spoiled. Reiko's puppet-wearing hand accidentally pushed a button. Shirei appeared in the screen and asked Reiko how she got in. Reiko said she thought the robot was a big doll and she got in but she cannot figure how to get out. Shirei warned Reiko that the robot is maintained for Shun's use only. Reiko checked her watch and noticed it was a minute past 4 PM. Reiko told Shirei that she had to see a friend. Again, Reiko accidentally switched the signal off.

Hideki waited for Reiko outside the zoo. When Reiko had not appeared yet, Hideki muttered Reiko was a liar. A robot appeared and it slipped to a fountain in front of the zoo. Hideki knew it was Reiko from that slip. Reiko apologized to Hideki for being late. Hideki was amazed to see a robot and asked Reiko-neechan how she got in. Reiko told Hideki how she got in. Unsurprisingly, Invaders appeared before them and surrounded them. The robot took Hideki in its hands. Reiko pushed a button that opened the robot's head. Hideki was transfered inside the robot. Reiko asked herself if she just opened it ^_^;. Invaders blasted the robot with their bazookas. Reiko did not know what to do then until the AEGIS Battle Bus appeared. Shun told Reiko that he had to get in. Hideki told Shun that Reiko cannot figure how to get out. Shun realized that a kid was inside the robot. Shun told the button's position but Reiko was darned confused so she pulled the wrong lever. The lever almost hit Shun. Reiko apologized (which made the robot kneel down apologizing) and the robot almost smashed Shun. As there were no more alternatives left, Shun opened his gate. But the Invaders outdone them and trapped them inside an Invader-cage. Reiko knew she must do something. Hideki encouraged Reiko-neechan that she can do it. Reiko saw her friends struggling. Reiko thought she was too spoiled. Each time she saw a friend struggling, the Majo-san's line "something for them" entered her mind. Reiko finally thought of making her friends happy. Hideki hurried Reiko to save her friends. Finally, Reiko decided she was going to be a witch. She opened her gate then announced that she would defeat the Invaders. A helicopter appeared and it dropped down a huge piano, just right for the size of the robot. Shirei said it was the GR05V and it may come in handy (they are really prepared with this, huh?). Reiko summoned her power and played the piano (with a steering wheel!). Reiko's Dazzling Melody produced multiple copies of the Gatekeepers. The Invader cage wobbles and Shun and the others took the chance to get out. Hideki was happy that Reiko-neechan did it. Hideki noticed that Reiko-neechan was sparkling while she was still concentrating her power, with that he smiled. Reiko's illusion made the Invaders confused. The Invaders saw a door and they saw Reiko in witch costume, but it was really a red Invader. The red Invader on the other hand saw the other Invaders as the Gate Keepers. The black Invaders attacked the red Invaders, so they instantly disappeared! Reiko's sparkle slowly disappeared after she was done concentrating. Reiko apologized to Hideki because their date was ruined. Hideki did not mind it and even thought of it as cool. Reiko looked at her right hand (the puppet-wearing hand) and thanked Majo-san. Hideki told Reiko-neechan that she did not need to thank the witch because she did it herself and she became a witch herself. Reiko was glad when she heard this.

Reiko had finally come out of the robot. Fei told Reiko that she was amazing. Ruriko thanked Reiko for saving them. Kaoru told Reiko that she made a difference. Megumi knew what Reiko had done but was still convinced that Reiko could not be compared to her.
