Mikako's nocturnal struggle to successfully compile a new concept design becomes the preamble of a conniption in which Mikako lashes out at Ruriko for wondering about breakfast whose furor piques Noriji and Tsutomu's concerned curiosity before racing off to school. While Tsutomu chases after Mikako, P-chan is bootstrapping herself for her school commute and demonstrates that her corporeal mass is an ongoing concern for her. This time around, it seems that P-chan is a little overzealous about her dimensions as per her family government's protests and the environmental suggestion of food conquering P-chan whose collapse after her egress from the train becomes the preamble of Noriji having demonstrated before him the lives led by Mikako and her friends. Noriji's intercession for P-chan and Mikako gives way to Mariko exhorting Yuusuke's lunchtime company much to Ayumi's anguish; a stopover to rent a movie during the home commute becomes the forum for Noriji to have demonstrated Risa's typical workday with rude customers and clumsily-governed kids. Noriji ultimately completes his home commute with far greater insight into the turbulent complexity of adolescence.
