Team Ichigo and Team Koshiro receive an anonymous invitation bearing the St. Marie Academy emblem to a ball at Mont Saint-Michel. Henri's secretary escorts them to the castle, revealing it as the semi-final venue where the theme is a chocolate dress. Lacking time to select another model, Kashino, Hanabusa, and Andoh choose Ichigo, basing the design on Cinderella. The competition ends in a tie, necessitating a rematch. During the subsequent ball, Henri-sensei removes Ichigo, claiming he feared the dress and she might be crushed. Ichigo then dances with Henri-sensei, which provokes jealousy among the Sweets Princes.
