Episode Description:
Chise meets Rahab, Lindel’s master, who summoned her. Angelica visits Elias. Rahab reveals Elias lived with her for decades learning about humans, but he always failed to understand emotions so he could only imitate human behaviour. Rahab once tried to explain marriage to him but it didn’t go well. Elias explains his growing worry to Angelica about Chise’s habit of confronting danger, even giving her his precious silver necktie hoping by trying to avoid breaking it she will start avoiding danger. Chise assures Rahab that Elias definitely has emotions, even if he doesn’t know it himself. Rahab is happy Elias met Chise but asks Chise not to mention her to Elias. Elsewhere, Philomena throws away the tea Chise gave her except for one small sachet. Elias shows Chise a shortcut to the college through a mystical doorway, but warns her it is extremely dangerous as it is possible to become lost forever in time and space. The Centaur postman guides them, showing them how to bribe the guardian hounds for passage. Chise ends up asking Elias what he thinks a bride is. Philomena overhears Zoe confess his fear of Chise to Doctor Alexandra. Lucy has a nightmare of her past.
