Hayate is about to go into the Small Animals Cafe when Takayuki approaches him because he didn't want to go into a cafe full of girls and couples by himself. Once inside together, Hayate gets really excited about all the animals, while Takayuki feels the soothing effect of them by just watching.

Takayuki has been put in charge for the promotinal campaign of the movie adaption of his childhood friend's novel. Wanting to create something great for his friend Motoharu, he get fired up about his assignment. However, unlike his motivation, the ideas are just not coming. In order to clear his head, he takes a break outside where he randomly runs into Motoharu, who reminds him of something very important.

Souta, Hayate, Shun, Souma, Takayuki, and Motoharu have made their way to the ocean. While Shun is super hyped to swim, Motoharu and Souta are more into drinking on the beach. With everybody free to do whatever they like, Takayuki volunteers to watch their bags and have some quiet time. Takayuki usually only realizes that summer is already over when it's too late, but this year he's actually enjoying it and talks to Souma about a CD cover design that he's working on.
