Aired on January 26, 2002
Keitaro takes a semester off from Tokyo University and travels to America with Seta to visit various archaeological sites. During his absence, his step-sister Kanako arrives at the Hinata apartments and declares herself the new landlord, which irritates the other residents. She establishes numerous new rules, prompting the tenants to attempt breaking them in hopes of discovering her weakness. These rules are actually linked to a specific promise Keitaro made with his "little sister." Naru, remembering her own sister, attempts to help and defend Kanako, unaware that Kanako intends to drive her out. The episode concludes with Keitaro's return.
