Air date: 1992.07.25
Nephrite looked into the stars and discovered Sailor Moon's weakness. It was Tuxedo Mask.
Zoisite summons Nephlyte to Queen Beryl, where he tells her of his plan of impersonating Tuxedo Mask to trap Sailor Moon.
When Usagi (Serena) came back from school and looked in the mail box, she found a letter from Tuxedo Mask. Usagi (Serena) was very surprised. When Usagi (Serena) opened the letter, she found out that it said, "I love you more than anyone else. Please come to MS department store in Shinjuku tomorrow night." Usagi (Serena) was very happy.
Luna was suspicious. She wondered how Tuxedo Mask know that Usagi (Serena) was Sailor Moon. Usagi (Serena) said that Tuxedo Mask's love for her figured out the secret. Then Luna said that although Tuxedo Mask always helped Sailor Moon, they didn't know if he was an ally or an enemy. She told Usagi (Serena) to be careful. But Usagi (Serena) wasn't listening.
The next day at school Usagi (Serena) found out that all of the girls, inlcuding Naru (Molly Baker) had received a love letter from Tuxedo Mask. Usagi (Serena) was very disappointed, but none of the girls knew who Tuxedo Mask was. Naru (Molly Baker) thought that it would be great if the one who gave her the love letter was Sanjouin Masato (Maxfield Stanton).
Then Haruna came in and said that everyone shouldn't be tricked by a prank love letter. She told everyone not to go to MS department store. But Haruna was really very upset that she didn't get one herself.
(In the North American version, she informs the class that she was invited as a chaperon, and advises them to be on their best behavior.)
At school Luna told Ami that she was very suspicious about the love letter. Ami said that she would discuss it with Rei.
Motoki (Andrew) and Mamoru (Darien) were at the game center. They were talking about the love letter incident. Mamoru (Darien) thought that it was some advertisement stunt. Then a very disappointed Usagi (Serena) walked in. Mamoru (Darien) thought that Usagi (Serena) was sad because she didn't receive a love letter. But Usagi (Serena) yelled back, "I got one. What are you doing here?" Motoki (Andrew) told Usagi (Serena) that Mamoru (Darien) went to the came college as him. Then Usagi (Serena) cried out, "How could Tuxedo Mask do that. Instead of just me, he gave love letters to everybody."
Ami was at Rei's house. Rei was in bed because she caught a cold. Rei was disappointed because she could not go see Tuxedo Mask. Ami said that she would take care of Rei.
Sanjouin Masato (Maxfield Stanton) was at MS department store. He was thinking that Sailor Moon would definitely come because she loved Tuxedo Mask. Then Naru (Molly Baker) walked up to him. Naru (Molly Baker) introduced herself. Then she asked if Sanjouin (Maxfield) was Tuxedo Mask. Sanjouin was surprised. He wondered how Naru (Molly Baker) knew that he had sent the love letters. Sanjouin (Maxfield) thought that Naru (Molly Baker) must be Sailor Moon. Then Sanjouin (Maxfield) said, "Naru (Molly Baker), you're very cute. I'm glad that someone as cute as you remembered my name. See you tonight," and left. Naru (Molly Baker) was very happy and thought that Sanjouin (Maxfield) was definitely the one who had sent her the love letter.
Usagi (Serena) was at home wondering why Tuxedo Mask had sent the love letters to everybody. Usagi (Serena) decided that she would ask Tuxedo Mask in person. So Usagi (Serena) got ready to go out to see him.
That night Naru (Molly Baker) went to the MS department store. It was closed, but suddenly the door opened. Naru (Molly Baker) went in and called out for Tuxedo Mask and Sanjouin Masato (Maxfield Stanton). Then Tuxedo Mask replied from the top of the escalators. Naru (Molly Baker) recognized the voice and said that it was Sanjouin (Maxfield). Sanjouin (Maxfield) was surprised that Naru (Molly Baker) knew his identity from just his voice. So Sanjouin thought that Naru (Molly Baker) was Sailor Moon. Sanjouin (Maxfield) went to Naru (Molly Baker) and told her to transform into Sailor Moon.
Usagi (Serena) was walking in Shinjuku when her communicator rang. Ami asked Usagi (Serena) where she was, and Usagi (Serena) told her. Rei got upset that Usagi (Serena) was going to meet Tuxedo Mask.
Sanjouin (Maxfield) was trying to get Naru (Molly Baker) to transform into Sailor Moon. But Naru (Molly Baker) didn't know what he was talking about. She just said that she liked him. Then Sanjouin (Maxfield) pulled out Naru (Molly Baker)'s enormous energy.
Usagi (Serena) arrived at MS department store. She saw Tuxedo Mask with Naru (Molly Baker). But Usagi (Serena) knew right away that it wasn't the real Tuxedo Mask. Then Usagi (Serena) transformed into Sailor Moon.
Meanwhile Mamoru (Darien) was walking outside a bookstore. A sudden pain hit him, and he transformed into Tuxedo Mask.
Sanjouin (Maxfield) figured out that Naru (Molly Baker) was not Sailor Moon. But he had gathered a lot of unexpected energy. Then Sailor Moon went to face Sanjouin (Maxfield).
Sailor Moon called Sanjouin (Maxfield) a youma. Sanjouin (Maxfield) was surprised that Sailor Moon figured out that he wasn't the real Tuxedo Mask. Then Sanjouin (Maxfield) took off the Tuxedo Mask costume. He introduced himself as Nephrite, one of the dark kingdom.
Nephrite called out to the stars and created a lion youma. The lion attacked Sailor Moon. Sailor Moon tried to run away, but she fell down. Then a red rose came flying by and hit the lion. The real Tuxedo Mask appeared.
Tuxedo Mask got in front of Sailor Moon and told her to escape. So Sailor Moon turned around and ran away. But Nephrite sent the lion after her. Sailor Moon used her moon tiara action and hit the lion. It stopped the lion momentarily. Sailor Moon was surprised that it didn't finish it off, like usual. Then Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask escaped into an elevator. But Nephrite laughed as it was his trap. The elevator was going to go to the top floor and then fall to the bottom.
Instead of panicing Sailor Moon was thinking about getting a kiss from Tuxedo Mask. Then Tuxedo Mask told Sailor Moon that they had to escape. Tuxedo Mask opened the little door at the top of the elevator and they climbed out. When the elevator reached the top floor Tuxedo Mask and Sailor Moon jumped to catch the ledge. But Sailor Moon slipped and Tuxedo Mask caught her hand. The elevator crashed at the bottom and Nephrite thought that he had won.
Sailor Moon was hanging on, but she couldn't take it any more. Then Tuxedo Mask told her not to give up, and told her to think of something to talk about. Sailor Moon thought and said, "Why do you always help me?"
Tuxedo Mask said, "My blood starts rushing and I feel like I want to protect you." Then Tuxedo Mask found a place to put his feet. He told Sailor Moon to climb onto his back. After Sailor Moon happily climbed onto Tuxedo Mask, Tuxedo Mask said, "A long time ago.. I feel like I knew you. It's in the corner of my memory, but I can't remember." Then the sign that Tuxedo Mask was resting his feet on came loose and fell to the bottom.
When Sailor Moon started panicing, Tuxedo Mask told her to start talking again. Then Sailor Moon asked, "What's your hobby? What do you like to eat?" Sailor Moon quickly thought that she was stupid for asking such questions.
Then just as Tuxedo Mask's fingers slipped, the elevator door opened and Sailor Mercury and Sailor Mars appeared to catch Tuxedo Mask's arms. They pulled Tuxedo Mask and Sailor Moon up to safety.
The Sailor Senshi and Tuxedo Mask went up to the roof. Luna scolded Sailor Moon for going off on her own. Sailor Mars yelled at Sailor Moon for going off and holding Tuxedo Mask by herself. Sailor Mercury told Sailor Mars and Sailor Moon to stop fighting. She was carrying Naru (Molly Baker) on her back and she said that they had to hurry to the hospital. Then Tuxedo Mask said, "Please be friends with each other," and left.
Nephrite reports to Beryl, "I couldn't defeat Sailor Moon, but I got a lot of unexpected energy. Everyone has one time when they are very engrossed in something and they create a lot of energy. This girl Naru (Molly Baker)... It seems she really fell in love with Sanjouin Masato. Foolish girl."
When Molly told Nephlyte she loved him, she was being true to herself. It got her into a mess, but Nephlyte knew Molly's strong feelings could b valuable to the Negaverse. When you do sonething right, your true feelings are valuable too. When you're true to yourself, you're as strong and powerful as any energy. When you're doing sonething right, be true to yourself.
