Manami's words have excited Onoda. He begins matching paces and laps with Imaizumi and Naruko, despite being in last place, hoping he can move up and claim an Inter-High spot. The captain switches the viewing screen from class to laps completed which leads to a race between the second years and our three first years. However Teshima and Aoyagi have carefully thought up a plan they believe will lead them to an easy Inter-High roster spot. Teshima has been riding a lap ahead of the others, and when the first years come up on them, he helps Aoyagi perform a breakaway while he acts as a road block for our trio. If Onoda, Imaizumi, and Naruko can't get past Teshima, they'll find themselves being lapped and failing to make the Inter-High. Can any of them get past Teshima while they're working on their own, or will Teshima's prophecy that the first years will drop out in 3 more laps come to pass due to the nightly rule of no lapping others in the dark?
