Ichigo encounters a timid girl named Retasu Midorikawa, who is being pressured by three classmates to photograph a school ghost. To protect her, Ichigo spills parfaits on the group, forcing them to leave. Later, Ichigo and Minto visit the school to investigate the rumor but instead find Retasu, who has been haunting the pool due to fear of isolation from her new abilities. After a short confrontation, the pair explain her Mew powers and invite her to join their team. As Ichigo walks home, an alien named Quiche appears, steals her first kiss, introduces himself, and then vanishes.
