Ep. 21: The trio attempts to expose Saki's weakness to help Yuki, but their plan backfires.
Motoko Minagawa and two Prince Yuki fan club members devise a scheme to remove Tohru from Yuki's life by uncovering the weakness of Saki, known as the demon queen. They visit Saki’s home under the guise of discussing her wave abilities, only to find her living environment surprisingly ordinary. While searching for clues, they encounter Megumi Hanajima, Saki’s younger brother, hiding behind a closet. Saki quickly deduces their true intentions and confronts them about their jealousy regarding Tohru’s closeness with Yuki. After Megumi recites their names, causing panic due to a previous warning about curses, the trio flees. Although Saki admits to some jealousy over Tohru’s time with the Sohmas, she is reassured by a visit from Arisa and Tohru. The following morning, the trio shares a nightmare about Saki and Megumi, and Saki teases them by stating the curse will activate in three days.
