Summary
Zastin, the group's only hope, is too busy working with Rito's father, trying to finish a manga before the deadline.

Meanwhile, on the planet Okiwana, the group takes shelter in a cave and near there is a river with drinkable water. Yui is worried about what they will do without food and a change of clothes. Lala try to cheer up her, but Yui tells Lala to leave her alone because it is all her fault. Lala then gets very quiet and apologizes, surprising Yui. Haruna then brings fruits found in a tree nearby and Peke scans it to make sure the fruit is edible or not. The scan proves positive and they eat. Haruna proposes to go back and pick other fruits, so the food problem is solved. Haruna reassures Lala that it's not her fault and that everything will be alright if they are well organized. Lala is very happy and thanks Haruna saying she's awesome. Even Rito thought Haruna would be scared, but instead she supported them. Rito, Saruyama and Run all go to set up camp while Yui contemplates to herself.

Rito and Saruyama spend thirty minutes trying to start a fire for keep away animals like the dinosaur. They manage to get a couple embers, but it goes out. Lala (returned with many fruits) then uses her Almighty Tool to quickly light a fire. Later, the girls make beds out of bunches of dead leaves to put in the cave. After collected so many leaves, the girls are tired. Suddendly Rito and Saruyama come with a nees; they discovered a hot spring near the cave. Lala comment is like a natural open air bath. Saruyama proposes to let girls go in first.

The girls enjoy the water and Run found it comes out from a small stream. Lala say she never thought they could have a hot spring in this place and Haruna compare its like to be in a hotel. Suddendly Yui apologizes to Lala for what she said earlier admitting this kind of exprience is not bad after all and she should have joined her and helped Haruna. Happy, Lala then jumps on Yui calling her sweet. Run is less amused from them.

Meanwhile Saruyama and Rito are hidden behind an high rock. The first has the intent to peek the girls remembering the failure at seaside summer school last year and Rito claim this a bad idea. Suddendly, Saruyama sees one of the monkeys who stole their things. Trying to get revenge, Saruyama goes after it pushing Rito into the hot spring. Rito fell on head and when he look up there are Lala and Yui (still hugging) naked in front of him. The girls (minus Lala) looking shocked at Rito and a furious Yui calls him a shameless pervert; Rito faint of embarrassment. Meanwhile, Saruyama lost to the monkey and Peke play with sand asking there is a way to leave from planet.
