Mom spots a large bald spot on the back of Bunji's head. The Spirit of Early Education freaks Mom out when he tells her that it's a boy's spirit callingfor help due to being neglected by his parents. Mom tried to improve her lax attitude towards Bunji, but...; Bunji can't calm down and can't sit still for lunch or going to the bathroom. That behavior just makes his school teacher say that "Bunji sure has a strong sense of curiosity." Mom was impressed by this, but...; Mom goes to wake Fumi up after sending Bunji off to school. She is enticed by Fumi's comfortable bed and drifts off to sleep herself, to the sound of Fumi's breathing. She drifts off to dreamland. Then, Bunji, Ma, and Chi engage in a never-ending argument about peppers, which, incidentally, they all hate.
