Summary
The Princess Lorelei has arrived at the resort island. After jumping rashly out of excitement, Loid warns Anya to be cautious. While walking away from the cruise ship, he becomes unnerved as he briefly spots SSS agents from a distance.

The two later unite with Yor, who received Anya's message the day before and was able to take the whole day off. Loid notices Yor's swollen face, and she lies about her previous mission. With her work done, the Forgers spend the rest of the day touring the island to enjoy the resort accommodations and activities: walking around town, zip-lining, riding a tandem bike, cave-exploring, riding horses and a swing, and sightseeing. As Anya approaches a flock of sheep and compares them to Bond, Yor comments that she is at peace and wishes that it would last forever. Loid agrees, but he silently thinks otherwise.

Anya intervenes in their exchange and points at a scuba-diving poster, insisting that she wants to dive in the ocean and look at the fish next. Yor internally worries about wearing a bikini at the risk of exposing her new chest wound, which makes Anya change her mind. To her luck, Yor finds a rental poster for swimwear and decides to wear a rash guard bathing suit instead. She agrees to scuba-dive with Anya and assures her that there will not be any sharks present in the water.

The Forgers scuba-dive, then surf soon afterward. Clutching a surfboard, Anya readies herself to be pushed into a wave by Yor, but gets propelled with force as Yor forgets to hold back her strength. She is taken by the wave and launched in the air, but Loid quickly comes to her rescue. Once the wave has passed, Anya asks Loid to redo it, but gets strictly rejected. Meanwhile, Yor panics and apologizes for the mishap.

Now back in town, Anya is delighted that they had fun the entire day. Suddenly, Yor is hit with the exhaustion from the night before, and she collapses into Loid, sending her into a deep sleep. Anya becomes tired as well, and she falls asleep like Yor. With the two girls knocked out in his arms, Loid is shocked to witness Yor fall asleep in public, noting that it is unexpected of her to do so. He guesses that work had been rough for her, and he smiles at her effort to still spend the day with them. He then walks back to the cruise ship.

After the cruise, the Forgers come back home. Anya reunites with a crying Bond while Loid hands Franky, who seems to be complaining, a gift bag. Afterward, they commune in the living room over coffee.

At WISE's hideout, Sylvia informs Loid that numerous passengers aboard the Princess Lorelei have gone missing and were originally traveling with fake passports. Loid affirms his suspicions and suspects that their goal was to create conflict between Westalis and Ostania. However, the SSS suspects that a third party was involved, and that they will most likely cover the issue to protect their reputation. Sylvia orders Loid to watch out for Ostania's extremist movements at the risk of sabotaging Operation Strix. As Loid walks away, Sylvia asks how he enjoyed his vacation on the cruise. He tiredly responds that it was more exhausting than his previous missions, to Sylvia's amusement.

Back at home, Yor, Anya and Bond sleep soundly in the living room, with Anya having drawn a picture of her and her parents' cruise adventure.
