Ep. 11: Okabe finds a TV lifter for D-Mails while Kurisu proposes time leaps to avoid chaos theory risks.
Okabe learns that a television in the electronics shop below the lab functions as a lifter, enabling D-Mail transmission only when powered on. Kurisu theorizes that memories can be sent back in time similarly, allowing consciousness to time leap. Okabe explains to Mayuri that time leaps are safer than D-Mails due to chaos theory unpredictability. During their outing, they encounter Moeka and Suzuha, who claims Kurisu works for SERN, a denial Kurisu makes. Kurisu also discusses her strained relationship with her father, who resents her superior scientific abilities. Okabe later receives a threatening text with a severed head image, prompting a return to the lab due to concerns for Mayuri. Daru subsequently reveals the lab was unknowingly connected to the SERN network.
