Haruna decides to tell Lala about her and Rito, Lala congratulates both Haruna and Rito and asks them what are they going to do after knowing each other's feelings, Rito and Haruna said they want to start going out but Rito is worried about Lala. Lala said that it would be OK if Lala and Haruna split the dates and take their turn to date Rito. Rito doesn't believe that it would be fine doing so, and when he's about to reject Lala he ends up thinking of the times he spent with Lala, and started crying.
Haruna says she's OK with the idea of Rito dating her and Lala but Rito trips and falls on Lala in his usual fashion. Inside the school Haruna says to Rito that he needs to settle things with Lala and every girl who liked him. Rito says that he is pathetic. Haruna explains the reason why she loves him and tells him to take his time to think about it.
On his way home, Rito is joined by Momo who takes this opportunity to confess her feelings to Rito. She says that the harem plan was created to hide her weakness that she couldn't be true to herself and even if the harem became reality, she wouldn't be able to accept it since she also wants to be Rito's best. Momo then says But as long as the two of you haven't moved on to a relationship it's too early for me to give up, and one day she'll make Rito think that he can't live without Momo. When she confesses to him she sends a mail to her mom telling that she is clear about her feelings for Rito and her mom gets excited that she is just like me.
Kotegawa in her room reads Rito's dad's manga and finds it interesting and tells him by email. While Run-Chan and Kirasaki Kyoko is in their dressing room, Run shows her the pic she took with Rito in the school the other day. Kyoko becomes jealous of the pic and says she can meet him anytime so she is jealous. Later in Tenjouins Palace Saki tells Rin that she plans to let her have a date with Rito and will invite Zastin as well. Aya said that she will support both of them. Meanwhile in Mikado's Clinic Tearju invites Yami-chan to have dinner with her but she refuses by saying that she has plans. Mikado says the she is a grown girl now and she may have a boyfriend. Oshizu brings the cup of tea for both of them. After a while, Yami-chan and Mikan are seen cooking dinner at the Yuuki household and Yami-chan asks Mikan how well her cooking was, Mikan comments that she can become a good wife with it. After hearing this she asks if it will satisfy Rito's tastes but Mikan says that he may not like it. While Nana and Mea went to a nearby Zoo for a walk Mea tells Nana that she likes to live in The town of Sainan and said that Sainan is fun. That night, Momo shows up naked on Rito's bed, forcing a massage on him. Nemesis joins in, and reveals her real plan to tease Momo by snatching Rito away from Momo and make her submit herself but Momo tells her that she won't let her have her way because Rito is hers.
