Episode Title:
My Girlfriend.Episode Description:
Takeo is participating in the upcoming sports festival on the class's Swedish relay team. The team runs into trouble when one of their fast runners sprains her ankle, and is replaced with the slower Mariya Saijou. Feeling that Mariya isn't as slow as everyone says she is, Takeo starts training her to run faster and ends up accidentally motivating her to run faster only because she was afraid the much faster Takeo would run her over. On the day of the festival, Mariya trips, but is encouraged by Takeo to get the baton over to him, allowing the team to win by a landslide. Afterwards, Mariya gives Takeo a towel as a thank-you gift, causing Rinko to become concerned that she might be a rival for Takeo's affections. A few days later, after Takeo helps her out with a twisted ankle, Mariya tells Takeo that she likes him as a person and asks to be his disciple, giving Rinko some relief.
