Udgivelsesdato: Dec 28, 2008

Kyousuke's coercion attempt from the previous episode prompts Taizou's intercession and ignites a brief battle. After a moment of jubilant intrigue, Kyousuke gets the best of Aoi before preparing to demonstrate his disappointment of Kaoru refusing to join P.A.N.D.R.A. but instead decides to leave behind a photograph with the proposal that Kaoru endeavor to rescue her leader. Before anybody can stop her, Kaoru finds herself in Minamoto's cerebral pseudo-reality and that Minamoto bearing the burden of Ikyuugo's final prediction by himself is the engine driving the pseudo-reality. While Kaoru conscripts Minamoto into what she thinks is the deus ex machina needed to emancipate them both, B.A.B.E.L. has successfully located Setsuko holed up by herself but finds that it will take more than a Taizou Kiritsubo bulldozer blitzkrieg to apprehend her since there is a minefield surrounding the place. Wielding the darkness and the internal design of the house to her advantage, Setsuko knocks Naomi and Aoi out of action with the click of her camera shutter along with Shiho who successfully recovers herself to fire a bullet right into her camera lens thanks to matching psychic mechanics. Desperate but undaunted, Setsuko energizes a time bomb before racing away. Unfortunately, even with Setsuko in custody, B.A.B.E.L. is no closer to locating P.A.N.D.R.A.'s headquarters or emancipating Minamoto. Polluted by the cerebral psuedo-reality, Kaoru becomes introspective and pensive as she states that she does not want to forget her newly-discovered thoughts and feelings even if that means she never returns to the real world because she has fallen in love with Minamoto. Back in the real world, Kaoru exhorting that Kyousuke explain to her what kind of dream world she was in ignites an argument between Kyousuke and Minamoto over who will successfully change the future that suggests a friendly rivalry between the two men.
