Summary[]

Loid looks over Anya's tests and sees that they are all failing grades. He calls out to her, but she tells him she is busy because she is watching Spy Wars. He decides to pick her up and carry her away from the TV so they can go to study as they promised at 5 o'clock. They begin studying, and Loid scolds her for being unable to spell correctly. Yor joins them and takes a look at Anya's test, then compliments her for her score being not bad, despite it still being a failing grade.

Anya Thinks About Cheating

Loid, believing she did that well because of her cartoons, tries to help her learn idioms by referencing idioms used in Spy Wars. Anya, however, only had difficulty with the idioms test because she read the mind of another student who also did poorly. She plans to learn who is the best at each subject so she can read their mind for tests in the future.

Loid considers having her grades changed in the school's records but realizes that would be suspicious if she did not have some real improvement as well. He also believes that if he does that, her classmates will resent her for her unearned accomplishments. Anya reads his mind and contemplates whether it is a good idea or not for her to cheat by reading her classmates' minds. Loid decides that he may have been too strict with studying and decides to instead to have her switch to doing some drawing.

Anya Tries Extracurriculars

She tries drawing a cow, but it turns out poorly, so Loid gives up on her drawing skills. He tries to get her to do music and sports as well, but she fails horribly at both of them. Yor then gives Anya a jumping rope to try playing with. While she does this, Loid contemplates his mission and the hopes that WISE has of her getting eight Stella Stars in four months. Anya ends up tangling herself in the jump rope but tells Loid she will to work really hard before asking him to free her. After helping her, Loid asks if she will go with him somewhere tomorrow, and she agrees.

Anya Fails At Cleaning

The next day, they go to the hospital to do some community service in hopes of earning her a Stella Star that way. Through his intel, Loid knows that outside of academic achievement, Stellas can be awarded for long-term community service and heroic acts like life-saving and police assistance. The nurses assign Loid and Anya to start by cleaning the locker room by the pool. Anya ends up breaking two flower pots while cleaning, so the nurses decide to reassign her to tidying the books in the library. Instead of cleaning, though, she ends up just reading manga. Anya tells them she is tired of cleaning and runs off to find a surgery room so she can assist a doctor by handing them tools.

Ken Drowning

The fed-up chief nurse yells at the two and excuses them from service. They dejectedly begin to leave the hospital, with Loid realizing she will not be able to get a Stella Star this way. Ken, a patient at the hospital, passes by them in the hallway and heads to the pool. He reaches his hand in the pool to check the temperature but accidentally slips in. His pool instructor looks around for him but does not see him and assumes he is still changing. Ken, unable to swim, begins to drown in the pool. Anya hears his cries for help through her telepathy and is about to tell Loid about it but realizes he will not believe her.

Ken Saved From Drowning

Instead, she rushes off the pool by herself and passes by Ken's instructor, who tries to stop her. She frantically looks around for where Ken is before hearing more cries for help and diving into the pool after him. Anya is unable to swim as well, but she grabs hold of Ken's hand. Loid dives into the pool as well and saves both of them. Ken's instructor is shocked because she did not know he was in there; the swimmers are shocked as well, as they heard nothing. Loid tells them that is how children usually drown as it makes little sound and advises them to keep their eyes on them when around a pool. Despite her reckless actions, Loid praises Anya and Ken's instructor thanks her for coming to Ken's rescue.

Anya Wearing Her Stella Star

Anya gets her first Stella Star

On the next day of school, Anya is awarded a Stella Star for saving Ken's life. Becky Blackbell congratulates her for getting the first Stella Star in the grade while Damian Desmond scoffs at her for getting one before him. Yor gives Anya a hug, and Loid pats her on the head, realizing he is genuinely proud of her. Anya realizes that she can use her powers to help people and gets very happy. Yor proclaims that she is going to make a special dinner, but Anya rejects the idea because she does not want Yor's bad cooking.
