Similar to the beginning of the last episode, Erecpyle wakes up in a hospital to receive the news that his other testicle had to be removed following his battle with Kon, and he ends up taking an indefinite leave of absence from his post. Meanwhile, a small, blue-furred pet appears in the path of the princess and her entourage. Kon wants nothing to do with the creature and tries to scare it away, due an event in his past with another pet, but fails. The pet becomes part of the traveling group.
