"An Unnatural Phenomenon."
Air date: 1992.06.20
Rei (Raye), Usagi (Serena) and Ami gather in a park and are admiring its beauty. Rei (Raye) is slightly surprised that Ami knows about the place; Ami states that she usually reads here if there is no juku. The girls talk to the caretaker, Mr Baxter, who tells them that the park will soon be converted to office buildings and the girls express their disappointment. Baxter taught Amy about birds, plants, and nature. Rei (Raye) adds that she will have a date in the park before it is eliminated.
Luna, in her continuing search for the Moon Princess eventually ends up in the middle of the road and is almost run over save for Mamoru (Darien)'s intervention. Usagi (Serena) accuses Mamoru (Darien) of trying to harm Luna. Mamoru (Darien) attempts to defend himself, but fails. Just then, Motoki (Andrew) happens by and greets Mamoru (Darien). Usagi (Serena) is suprised at both the fact that Motoki (Andrew) knows Mamoru (Darien) and that Mamoru (Darien) is a college student.
Elsewhere, Nephrite chooses his next target: the park's caretaker, Mr Baxter.
Usagi (Serena) is spending her money at the game centre while Rei (Raye) is pumping Motoki (Andrew) for information about Mamrou. Rei (Raye) discovers that Mamoru (Darien) is the eldest son in his family and is living by himself in an expensive apartment. Rei (Raye) then pledges to go with Mamoru (Darien) on a date in the park.
Mr Baxter wonders how to protect nature and is told by Nephrite, who appears in front of Mr Baxter, that Mr Baxter can do it himself. Mr Baxter is then possessed by a youma (Petasosu) which controls animals and insects.
Rei (Raye), in her attempts to meet Mamoru (Darien), plans to use Motoki (Andrew)'s information to accidently run into Mamoru (Darien). Rei (Raye) daydreams of this occurance and imagines Mamoru (Darien) as being apologetic and offering a cup of tea in apology. Not too far away, Usagi (Serena) watches Rei (Raye)'s face hit the sidewalk in a failed attempt to hit Mamoru (Darien).
Mamoru (Darien) asks Rei (Raye) if she is all right; she applies in the affirmative and asks Mamoru (Darien) to take her out for tea. Mamoru (Darien) agrees much to Usagi (Serena)'s chagrin. Usagi (Serena), being upset, decides to follow the two.
Usagi (Serena) watches Rei (Raye) and Mamoru (Darien) in the restaurant outside the window. Usagi (Serena) initially plans to transform into a waitress to sneak in, but Luna prevents her. Umino (Melvin) happens by and is coherced by Usagi (Serena) to 'take her on a date'/aid her in spying on Rei (Raye). Rei (Raye) and Mamoru (Darien) then agree to go to the park.
Luna has a short conversation with Ami concerning Mr Baxter of the park. Mr Baxter is acting strangely; he tells people that without a reason, they should not be in the park. As well, Mr Baxter is able to 'indirectly' drive off the construction workers; an animal attacks one of the construction workers visciously, causing them all to flee. Luna feels the presence of the Dark Kingdom which leads her and Ami to search for Usagi (Serena) and Rei (Raye).
Mamoru (Darien) and Rei (Raye), out on Fairview Lake, are talking about the park and nature in general. Mamoru (Darien) expresses his disappointment in the fact that the park will be destroyed. He wants to see the rose garden before it's gone, admiting he likes roses. Usagi (Serena) is watching from the distance trying to get closer to the couple on the lake. Usagi (Serena) leaves the scene leaving Umino (Melvin) slightly surprised at her disappearence.
Luna and Ami find Usagi (Serena) and tell her that something unusual is occuring in the park. Petasosu appears and begins attacking leading Usagi (Serena) and Ami to transform and begin attacking. Rei (Raye) observes Mamoru (Darien) acting strangely; Rei (Raye) disappears and enters into the melee. Just before Usagi (Serena) defeats the youma, Tuxedo Kamen drops in to offer a few words of wisdom.
After the youma is defeated, Mr Baxter recovers and asks Ami what has happened. Ami simply replies that it was a dream. Not too far away, Rei (Raye) asks Mamoru (Darien) how he is; Mamoru (Darien) is fine. Rei (Raye) comments that Mamoru (Darien) must be Tuxedo Kamen to Usagi (Serena)'s disbelief. Umino (Melvin) then shows up telling Usagi (Serena) to return to their 'date'. Mamoru (Darien) is amused to Usagi (Serena)'s horror.
At the end, Usagi (Serena) daydreams about a wedding scenario with Tuxedo Kamen and kissing with him until she is snapped back to reality by Luna's interjection.
