Summary[]
BERLINT IN LOVE[]
At her home, Becky watches a scene of Berlint in Love on television, where the male lead Vincent is seduced by his lover Sonia. Reminded by a framed photo of the Forgers, Becky calls up Anya's home and pretends that she happens to be dropping by their house while in the neighborhood. Soon after, Becky is at their door, confusing Anya with her quick arrival. Becky's thoughts reveal her intent to confess her love to Loid, though Martha disapproves. Anya calls over Loid, announcing Becky's visit. Loid greets Becky, with Martha apologizing for their unannounced visit with a gift. He welcomes Becky to their home with a bright smile and thanks her for being a good friend to Anya, causing Becky to get flustered and fall backward with a lovestruck expression. Watching this, Anya is reminded of Fiona. Martha leaves Becky at the Forgers' home, reminding her to behave.
Anya tries to take Becky on a quick tour around the residence, but the huge gap between their financial status led Anya to put a stop to it, as Becky assumed their living room is a storage vestibule and is amazed at Anya's room being smaller than her dog's doghouse. Becky quickly asks Anya where her mom is, and when she finds out Yor is out walking Bond, Becky begins to fantasize about her and Loid in a similar situation as the Berlint in Love scene earlier, with her marrying Loid. Anya is shocked but is soon persuaded after reading Becky's thoughts on the benefits of being her mother. Anya decides to help Becky out with her plan, asking Loid to play with them and cheering Becky on, but later Becky insists that only talking is fine. Loid chats with Becky, trying to gain more intel on the activities of Becky's father, while Becky is flustered as she wonders if Loid is interested in her.
Yor arrives home with Bond and greets Becky. Anya tries to introduce Bond to Becky, who is too busy with plotting how to defeat Yor to notice. Becky tries to use techniques she learned from her television dramas, letting her hair down and flipping it, to no avail. Yor decides to serve everyone tea and seats Loid beside Becky and Anya. Becky asks Loid why he is interested in her family, and he replies that he was just making conversation. This shocks Becky, who claims he has been playing her the entire time, making him spit out his drink as he worries that Yor will misunderstand. However, Yor is not affected, upsetting Becky.
In a last-ditch effort, Becky leans on Loid's arm, pretending to be tipsy after drinking the tea. Yor, worried that she somehow poured alcohol into Becky's tea, quickly carries her to a hospital, to everyone's shock. In her rush, she sees an oncoming car and tosses Becky in the air before getting struck by the car. As she rolls from the hit, Yor quickly recovers to catch Becky and resumes her dash. Becky stops Yor by confessing the truth to her and apologizing. Yor does not get angry and is simply relieved that Becky is well, to Becky's surprise.
Yor apologizes for jumping to conclusions and dragging Becky to a nearby park, wondering aloud how Loid can put up with her. After Yor gets asked why Loid chose to marry her, she does not mention their agreement but recalls her hazy memory of the night Loid told her that she was strong, a statement that Becky takes literally. Loid and Anya soon catch up with them. Seeing a strongman game, Becky tries to prove her strength to Loid but sadly falls under the weight of the hammer. Yor mistakenly assumes that Becky wants to win the grand prize for Loid and single-handedly wrecks the game with her strength, rendering everyone speechless. Becky misinterprets Loid's stunned reaction and gets convinced that he likes strong women, so she asks Yor to train her. Yor accepts, and everyone returns home where she teaches Becky how to punch. Martha, who arrives to pick up Becky, is confused at the sight of the two training together.
NIGHTFALL'S DAILY LIFE[]
The day before Loid's vacation on Princess Lorelei, Fiona is shown files of an urgent mission he would have taken once he returned and decides to do complete it by herself, believing only she can do it. Sylvia approves, but instructs her to not push herself so hard. While Loid has his cruise vacation, Fiona masterfully completes the mission of eliminating an enemy group, still intent on taking the role of Twilight's wife. After completing the mission, Fiona is reminded of her loss to Yor and decides to train herself to become stronger and defeat the current "Mrs. Forger," going to the wooded mountains and training with the wildlife there.
The day after Loid returns from his trip, he meets with an overworked Fiona at Berlint General Hospital, who gives him documents of his patients while he was gone. Fiona asks if there were any changes, hoping that he found a huge flaw with Yor. Loid, who thinks about Anya's behavior and the bomb threat, says there was nothing much, to Fiona's disappointment. Loid then asks Fiona the same question. Fiona thinks about how hard she worked to become a woman Twilight would admire and her goal to defeat Yor, but also tells Loid that nothing much happened.
Loid remembers an earlier conversation with Sylvia, who informed him of Fiona covering his mission for him while he was gone. Loid is surprised by this, knowing that Fiona also had her own missions, and offers her the leftover souvenirs he got from his trip. To his surprise, however, Fiona glares at him intensely as she accepts them, then thanks Loid and leaves his office. Once alone, Fiona happily skips through the hospital halls and thinks about how she loves Twilight.
