While Mama cuts heads of lettuce with her guillotine, seemingly troubled, Papa and Noelle talk about the Red String of Fate. Papa claims that he and Mama have a red string of fate keeping them together, and asserts that Noelle and Yuusuke are the same, although Mama seems uncomfortable with this. In class, Noelle ties hers and Yuusuke's fingers with a literal red string, and Natsumi turns up her nose at them, saying she doesn't believe in such superstitions. Muse accidentally breaks the thread, causing her and Noelle to cry, but their teacher assures them that a true red string will never break. Silky wonders where her prince is, and Eros chastises Muse (who seems to have feelings for Eros) and instructs her to take Noelle's halo. Mama still seems troubled, spacing out and accidentally vacuuming things at random, then runs off in tears when she realizes what she's done. Sara reveals that Mama's behavior could be due to a possible love letter she received earlier, causing Papa to panic. Muse turns into a cushion that's softer and kinder than Mama, and comforts Papa (as well as giving him bad advice) in hopes to steal his heart while he's vulnerable. Due to Muse's bad advice, Papa insult's Mama's cooking, furthering the rift between them, which, in turn, causes Noelle to cry over her fear of her parents' red string breaking. Papa is being comforted by Muse when Mama finds them, and is convinced by Muse that Papa is leaving their family to start a new life with her, instead. A tug-of-war over Papa breaks out with Muse on one side, and the rest of the family on the other. The family wins, and Papa and Mama make up and apologize to one another. Mikael and Raphael discuss the potential that Noelle might have to sacrifice something big in order to become an angel. Meanwhile, Noelle finds Mama's letter, and the source of her stress--an invitation to the Demon World Witches' Tournament. (Source: Wikipedia)
