After gym class, Yuiko enlists Riki to help find Mio's favorite book. Riki and Mio are unable to find it inside the classroom, thinking that someone may have hidden it as a joke.

Kyousuke, Komari and Kudryavka summon Riki for baseball practice, and Mio goes to watch the Little Busters from the sidelines.
