After Kanade rejects his confession of love, Shikijou presses her for a reason, grabbing her arm and saying, "This isn't normal. This isn't like you."

Kanade's hands and feet are tied with rope, so she can't move. Shikijou moves closer to her saying, "Kanade-san, you aren't normal right now. We have to reform you."

When Himuro finds out that Yukimura spends time alone in a room with a high school girl for his part-time home tutoring job, she becomes intensely worried that he might be ogling his student.

The Ikeda Lab is, as is traditional, doing something for the university's Mutsumi Festival, an event which draws many people from off-campus. Yukimura proposes conducting a large-scale experiment on the importance of appearance for romance. He has readied a large number of cosplay costumes to rent out to visitors who will then participate in an attractiveness rating. In order to emphasize how important appearance is, Yukimura projects a series of images of Himuro in cosplay on the screen, including Himuro in a nurse's uniform, a maid's uniform, and a black cat style outfit?!

Kosuke enjoyed his date with his beloved Aika. They did things like shop for clothes and watch a movie. In the midst of his fun, Kosuke watched Kanade, her date, and a lot of other couples up close. He ends up being made aware he was the only one playing with dolls, and the feeling makes him scream and cry. Meanwhile, Kanade is still in shock from the words Shikijou said to her on their date: "You didn't seem normal." Seeing this, Yukimura asks Kanade for the definition of "normal," and declares that living with an obsession about being "normal" is a truly stupid way to live.

After worrying long and hard over what to do about Shikijou's invitation to go hang out together, Kanade decides to try going on the date with him. When Himuro hears about it she leans forward excitedly to congratulate Kanade on finding someone she might fall in love with. Himuro is also eager to observe and analyze Kanade's date from afar in order to put it to good use in her own research. As she's thinking about this, Yukimura arrives and proclaims that he has devised a new standard unit for the measurement of favorable feeling, the Kanade love power. Then, Kanade's date becomes a double date!

Yukimura is working hard on his computer, as usual, when Himuro suddenly says, "I am in love with you. Her confession greatly shakes Yukimura. Unlike the last time, Himuro states her feelings matter-of-factly. Yukimura asks, "What theory did you use to determine that you love me?" Himuro replies by taking Yukimura out on a date and begins performing experiments they've done before such as measuring heart rates, using an emotion counter, collecting saliva, and the kiss experiment.

Yukimura and Himuro allow Yamamoto to turn their experiences thus far into a manga and Yamamoto collects proof of love from her readers in return. The manga becomes very popular. Yamamoto, pleased with herself, says that an anime adaptation may not be just a dream. In the meantime, Kanade, still bothered by the love she experienced back in high school, gives some hard thought to the confession she received from Shikijou. Seeing Kanade so full of anxiety over the question, "what is love anyway," Yukimura tries to give her some advice and pulls out a whiteboard where he begins to write out an equation.
