JB explains to her assistant, Chiara Farrell, that she has been confined due to her being the person in charge of Yuuji. She believes it is to keep her from giving an unwanted testimony and that Yuuji may be executed for his supposed attack on the consulate. She also announces that she will have a different job after her return to Langley but Chiara reasons that it is only to keep JB quiet. JB then warns her from speaking too much as they are under surveillance. Back on the girls' houseboat base, Kazuki/Thanatos announces that Yuuji will be transferred from the holding facility on August 6 at 6:00 p.m and that the girls must prepare an extremely large sum of 100 million before then. To this end, she created a series of plans in order for them to earn the amount within a day and assigns the girls to do various jobs. Yumiko uses her laptop to sell one of Makina's possessions online and uses an auction site to buy and sell. Amane rents a car and is made to memorize a very specific but complex route around the town. She once again finds Thanatos' voice familiar but cannot recognize it as Kazuki's most likely due to the fact that several years had passed since the two separated. Sacchi opens a private bank account for the girls and later accompanies Makina to a gun maker were she picks up a specially made, pink colored sniper riffle which was ordered ahead of time by Thanatos. The shop's owner, Morishima, strongly hints that he knew Asako, Yuuji's late mentor and guardian, since she was a child as Makina strongly reminded him of her. Michiru, surprisingly, was assigned the most tiring task wherein she literally traveled to different countries within the day engaging in a variety of transactions that allowed her to earn billions by following Thanatos' detailed instructions but was ultimately left with just enough money to meet the required sum after which Thanatos explains their plan to rescue Yuuji through a raid. Meanwhile, Chizuru, the now-closed Mihama Academy's principal, is seen eating in a restaurant when she too receives a call from Thanatos offering her a site for the new Mihama Academy school building which she quickly accepts. JB is seen relaxing while watching television in her quarters when her television suddenly displays a message from Thanatos saying that "the Mihama Women's Volunteer Corps YK Rescue Campaign is underway" to her confusion. Back in the Ichigaya holding facility, Yuuji is seen tied up while lying on a bed and being monitored via surveillance by guards. Heath Oslo is then seen discussing the installation of the two warheads in a metropolitan area with one of his men who explains that one has been planted while a suitable location is still being searched for the other. They then discusses their own plan on retrieving Yuuji. The next day, the day of the operation, Yumiko gives a pep talk to the girls reminding them that they were heading to a war zone where there was no guarantee of their lives and the girls eat what may be their last meal.
