The following day, Kono and the others arrive at Becan's house, facing the front door.
Gram: Is this Becan's house?
Kono: It says "DUDES" on the front door.
Daru: It's his house, you idiots. No one else says "Dude" but him.
Someone opens the door; it's a member of Becan's crew.
Flaming Grill 1: Hey, DUDES AND DUDETTES!
Daru: Correction… this whole crew says "Dude."
Zodiac: Yeah, no kidding.
Ohma: Hello! How's it going?
Flaming Grill 1: It's going great, Dude!
Gram: This is where the barbecue is, right?
Akira: Yes, you dumbass. He literally mentioned it at the house yesterday.
Gram: I feel like I'm always getting attitude from everyone in this crew!
Flaming Grill 1: Yeah! It's here!
A few moments pass as he observes Kono's crew.
Akira: Well?
Flaming Grill 1: Oh shoot, right! Head on in the back; Becan's waiting for you.
Akira: These people seem dumber than Gram.
Gram: Hey! I heard that.
Akira: Wasn't hiding it.
They all enter the house, which is extremely hot, with clothing scattered across the floor and crew members without shirts.
Kono: Seems like they don't like wearing shirts in the house.
Ohma: Should I take my armor off?
Himitsu: No, don't!
They proceed to the backyard, where they find Becan on the ground, kissing it.
Becan: I didn't know the ground was so beautiful and so hard! Poor thing, everyone just steps on you without a care.
Zodiac: I think I'm going to cut my eyes out.
Ohma: Hey, Becan!
Becan looks over while still on the ground.
Becan: (hugging the ground) Hey, everyone! I'm so glad you made it!
Daru: Yeah, we… Hey Becan, what are you doing?
Becan: Oh, I'm hugging the ground.
Akira: Why?
Becan: Well, I was told everything has feelings, and I want to spread love to everything.
Himitsu facepalms.
Zodiac: This is so—
Before Zodiac can finish, he observes Ohma hugging the ground.
Ohma: Don't worry, I'll give you a hug, ground; we can be best friends.
Gram: Ohma, get up!
Becan rises from the ground and approaches them.
Becan: Well, guys, are you ready for today?
Himitsu: Yes, but Becan… where is the barbecue?
Becan: Huh? You're standing in it!
Himitsu: But there's nothing here.
Becan: Well, yeah, duh! You have to prepare the barbecue!
Daru: Please tell me we're not setting up this barbecue.
Becan: Well, yeah!
Zodiac: Fantastic…
Akira: I hate this barbecue.
Becan: Hey, everyone, I got help, so don't worry. Go up to the third floor and introduce yourselves. I'm sure you all remember each other well.
Kono: Okay…?
Kono and the others head up to the third floor.
Gram: I think it'll be fun to set up the barbecue.
Ohma: I think so too.
Zodiac: Then why don't you guys do it yourselves?
Ohma: Okay!
Gram: No, Ohma. We are doing this together.
Ohma: Understood!
As they ascend the stairs and open the door, they find everyone from Fighting Minus One: The Scarlet Crew, Virgo Crew, Blue Trooper Crew, and Honsor Crew. Sai and Zodiac make eye contact.
Sai & Zodiac: Great…
Yoshi: These guys are here too?
Lith: You're HERE TOO!
Kono: (nervous laughter) Hello, Lith.
Souta: (to herself) Daru!
Iris: (to herself) Zodiac's here too! Wait, that bitch is here too (looking at Akira).
Himitsu observes Kora speaking with her group.
Himitsu: H-hey, Kora.
Kora: (under her breath) Great, he's here again… Hey, Himitsu!
Gram addresses Kora's crew members.
Gram: Hey, ladies, I'm Gram… (chuckles) Gram The Great.
Akira rolls her eyes.
Daru: This is just going to be great… just great.
Ohma: Hi, everyone!
Becan: See!! Didn't I tell you guys you knew each other?
Daru: Yeah, but you didn't tell us it was everyone who helped defeat Minus One!
Becan: Hey, I did say you knew them, dude!
Lith: (looking at Akira) And who are you supposed to be?
Kora: Yeah, I don't ever recall seeing you before.
Akira: Does it really matter?
Kono: Oh, this is Akira! She is one of our new crew members that we just added a few days ago.
Lith: (shocked) What!? You found someone else!?
Junko: Oh wow.
Lance: (talking to self) She doesn't look like a pushover, but she is nowhere near as royal as us.
Daru: Yes, she is part of our crew. Can we just get going already?
Koda: Well, Akira, it is very nice to meet you! And welcome to the Order!
Daru sighs loudly as Becan steps onto a table in the center of the room.
Becan: Alright! Dudes and dudettes.
Everyone quiets down and looks at Becan.
Becan: Today is Sampostis Day, and we all have the day off, so I wanted to host a barbecue! As you can see, there's no food, chairs, or anything else, so I thought it would be nice to work together to gather everything as a team again!
Everyone remains silent.
Becan: Ugh? Did I say something wrong?
Sai: Becan, everyone here hates each other.
Becan: Uhh, what!? No!?
Lith: Listen, Becan, it was nice of you to invite us, but we don't get along with everyone here.
Reiji: But Lith, I d—
Mako and Yoshi hit Reiji on the head.
Reiji: Ouch! Ouch!
Lith: We are leaving, Becan. Let's go, Scarlet Crew.
Iris: Yeah, we're out too.
Koda: Sorry, Becan. Maybe next time.
Kora: Sorry, cutie.
Everyone stands and moves toward the door. Becan steps off the table.
Becan: Aww... man, I wanted this to happen so badly. I had everything planned.
Flaming Grill 3: It's okay, dude. Maybe next year.
Flaming Grill 2: Yeah, don't beat yourself up.
Akira: EVERYONE, STOP!
Everyone is taken aback to see Akira standing on the table where Becan was.
Gram: Akira?
Himitsu: What's going on with her?
Iris: What the hell are y—
Akira: SHUT UP!
Iris: Excuse me! How dare you!
Akira: LISTEN UP! I don't know you all, but this guy has been preparing for this for a while. He had everything planned for today, and you're all about to leave after he worked so hard!
Kora: Ooh! Everyone likes a feisty girl!
Daru: (Chuckles) So she does have a soft side.
Reiji: Lith?
Lith: What do you want, Reiji?
Reiji: I think she's right. It would be rude to leave Becan after he planned this whole day for us.
Souta and Junko prepare to hit Reiji on the head.
Lith: Stop!
Souta & Junko: Huh?
Lith looks at her team.
Lith: He's right… We're staying and helping Becan. We were invited, so it would be rude not to see it through.
Becan: Wh— really?
Koda glances at his team and nods.
Koda: We will stay as well.
Lance: Iris.
Iris: Yeah, I know we're staying.
Lance: Huh… No, I was going to say let's go.
Iris: Huh? No, we're staying! It would be unroyal to leave.
Lance: (Sighs) Damnit… fine.
Kora: We'll stay too! Plus, to look this good, I need to eat and stay healthy.
Blue Trooper 2: We're staying, ladies!
Becan: So does that mean everyone is staying?
Daru: It appears so.
Becan looks back at Akira.
Becan: Thank you!
Akira: Listen, I'm just hungry, so let's get this going.
Becan: Right! Okay, here's the plan—
Just as Becan was about to speak, everyone's Jump Watch vibrated, and the AI began to announce.
Jump Watch AI: An update is currently available. Please wait approximately one minute and thirty seconds while your Jump Watch downloads.
Ohma: Uhhh, what is going on?
Lith: Relax, our Jump Watches are just updating. It's nothing serious.
After a minute and thirty seconds, everyone's watch finished updating, and they checked for new features.
Mako: I don't see anything new.
Junko: Me neither.
Kono: Wait, there's a new icon below!
They all looked and saw the same thing as Kono and clicked on it.
Kora: Contacts? We can add other individuals with Jump Watches to our contacts and text or call them.
Souta: You can even create a group chat!
Becan: (clearing his throat) As I was saying, we're splitting into three groups: the girls will stay back to set up decorations, while the guys go out for food, and others will pick up chairs and tables from the hardware store. I'll plan the layout.
Akira: Why do the girls have to stay back?
Becan: No, no, I didn't mean it like that. But if you want to help with the other tasks, feel free.
Kono: Akira, just stay back while the guys do all the running around.
Kora rubs Akira's shoulders.
Kora: Yeah, let the guys do the heavy lifting. Decorating is my forte… (looks at Iris) Right, Iris?
Iris: Yeah, sure.
Akira: Stop touching me! Whatever! Where are the decorations?
Becan: Oh, they're in my basement, but be careful; they're heavy!
Iris: I'll go get them.
Akira: No, I will!
Iris: No, I will!
Akira and Iris begin to bump heads.
Kono: This looks like Daru and Zodiac, but with girls.
Daru & Zodiac: We can hear you.
Kono: Oh, sorry (smiles).
Everyone splits into three groups: the girls remain to decorate while the guys go out for food, chairs, and tables. We see Zodiac, Koda, Gram, Himitsu, Sai, and Yoshi walking around a grocery store.
Himitsu: Wow! I've never seen a place like this!
Sai: You're telling me you've never been to a grocery store? Do you live under a rock or something?
Zodiac: Just shut up. Obviously, Himitsu and I have never had this kind of experience on our planet.
Sai: (sarcastically) Oh, that's so sad! Do you want me to pat you on the head to make you feel better?
Zodiac: Touch me, and you'll lose a hand.
Yoshi: (shaking his head) Can you guys just quit it already?
At that moment, Gram runs up to the group with a large frozen box of lasagna.
Gram: Look what I just found!
Koda: You like lasagna?
Gram: Do I like it? I LOVE IT! It's one of my favorite foods.
Himitsu: I've never had that before, but it sounds delicious!
Gram: Oh, trust me, Himitsu, you'll love it!
As the group gathers the remaining food, Daru, Mako, Lance, Reiji, and Ohma are at a hardware store selecting chairs and tables.
Reiji: Does it matter what type of chairs and tables we choose?
Mako: Ummm, I don't think so. But they need to be for outdoor use.
Daru walks over to the outdoor furniture section, pointing.
Daru: So these are fine, right?
Mako: Yeah, those will do.
Daru picks up five plastic chairs.
Ohma: Wow! Are you sure you can carry all of that?
Daru: Yes, Ohma, they're just plastic.
Ohma: Oh, right (laughs).
When Lance sees Daru carrying the chairs, he employs his gauntlets to lift multiple chairs and tables, bringing them over.
Daru: (scoffs) What, are you so weak that you need to use your powers?
Lance: Don't you dare test me, you lowlife! I'll use my powers to my advantage, unlike you.
Daru: Whatever makes you feel better.
Mako: Okay, Reiji and Ohma, grab some chairs too.
Ohma: Yes, sir!
Lance: Let's go.
Daru: Hey, smartass, you forgot the cups, paper plates, and cutlery.
Lance: (looks at Mako) You go get it.
Mako: (sighs) Lazy.
As both groups gather their supplies, they return to Becan's house with everything they need.
Becan: Did you all manage to get everything?!
Lance & Sai: Yes, we got everything.
Lance: Hey, copy me again, and we're going to have problems.
Sai: Should I be scared?
Lance: (angrily) Keep talking, and I'll show you what scary looks like.
Sai: I'd love to see you try.
Lith: Sai!
Iris: Lance!
Lith & Iris: Knock it off!
Kono: Man, Sai was right; everyone does hate each other here.
Becan: Sweet! Now let's CRANK UP THIS BARBECUE!!
Everyone begins setting up the area, bringing chairs, tables, cups, paper plates, and cutlery. Becan's crewmates assist him in preparing food, including ribs, chicken, burgers, fries, hot dogs, lasagna, chicken wings, and chili. The scene depicts people engaging in conversation and greeting other crew members; some say hello while others walk away. Akira observes Daru and Ohma doing push-ups while Zodiac sits alone, prompting her to roll her eyes. Becan smiles as he reflects on the many friendships he has formed.
Becan: Now this is what I call a group of friends!
Flaming Grill 4: Yeah, dude, this is awesome.
Becan looks down and notices the burgers burning.
Becan: DUDES, THE BURGERS!
Everyone rushes to fan the flames, which finally subside as they take a breath. As time passes, the food is prepared, and Becan begins serving it to everyone.
Reiji: Thank you, Becan!
Ohma: Yeah! Thank you, sir!
Kono: Thank you!
Lith: Thanks.
Iris: Thanks… (to herself) Where is Zodiac?
Becan: You're welcome, dudes and dudettes! I just love how we're all here together!
Yoshi: Yes, whatever, I'm just here for the food.
Akira: You and me both.
Junko: Has anyone seen Souta?
Sai: No, I haven't.
Mako: I'm pretty sure she went to the bathroom.
Iris glances to her left and sees Zodiac sitting alone on a bench. She rises and approaches him as he looks at her.
Zodiac: Hmm?
Iris takes a seat beside him, feeling a bit anxious.
Iris: So… what are you doing?
Zodiac: Nothing.
Iris: Oh, well that makes sense. (to herself) What should I say? What should I say?
Zodiac: Is that all you have to say?
Iris: N-no! I was just wondering if you were at that club.
Zodiac: What, the club that Daru and I went to, where Gram, Himitsu, and Ohma were?
Iris: So you did come to the club after all. What happened?
Zodiac: Those idiots went to a club without telling us and even got Ohma drunk. So, pretty much, Daru flipped out, and we had to go to the club to get them.
Iris: Now that makes sense. But I didn't see you anywhere.
Zodiac: I was probably at the back of the club trying to stop them.
Iris: I see. Daru really shook the whole place down, that's for sure.
Iris gradually moves closer to Zodiac.
Iris: (blushing) So, what do you like to do besides fighting and working?
Zodiac: I don't know, train.
Iris: Huh? There's got to be something else besides training.
Zodiac: Well, there isn't.
As they converse, Zodiac notices Lance staring at him with a serious expression, arms crossed.
Zodiac: Why is he looking at me?
Iris: Who, my brother?
Lance: (yelling) Iris! Get over here!
Iris: What! Why!?
Lance: I said get over here!
Iris: (annoyed) Fine!
Before standing up, Iris looks at Zodiac.
Iris: Bring up your Jump Watch.
Zodiac: What?
Iris: Just do it!
Zodiac raises his watch as Iris does the same, positioning them face to face. Their screens illuminate, indicating they can add each other to their contacts, and they both press accept.
Zodiac: What was that for?
Iris: (standing with a smile) I'll talk to you later, Zodiac.
Iris approaches her brother, who is eating.
Lance: This is actually good! For someone who isn't royal, that is.
Koda: Do you even know how to be nice?
Gram: This lasagna is so good! Becan, you made this perfectly!
Becan: Thanks, dude! My mom used to make it a lot, so I just copied her (laughs).
Ohma: So, Gram, why do you like lasagna so much?
Gram: Oh, that's easy. Zen… Zenshi used to make it when I was younger.
Daru: Yeah, it was really good.
Himitsu: Either way, it's delicious! Hey, Becan, can I have another hot dog?
Becan: Yeah, dude! Coming right up!
Daru: I'd like eight more burgers, please.
Everyone at the table looks at Daru, shocked and perplexed.
Daru: What?
Lith: Eight burgers!?
Kora: Are you serious!?
Daru: No, I need my protein.
Ohma: Right! Becan, I would like four more ribs!
Daru: (chuckles) There you go.
Gram: Then I would like two more lasagnas!
Reiji: I'd like three more hot dogs!
Akira: Get me ten more chicken wings!
Becan: (laughs) Alright, guys! I'll cook a whole bunch! Let's do this, boys!
Becan and his friends stand up and begin cooking, while Souta is in the bathroom talking to herself.
Souta: COME ON, SOUTA! Just get out there and say it!
Junko: Ugh… Souta? Are you alright in there?
Souta: Junko?
Junko: Yes, it's Junko. Are you okay in there?
Souta: Yeah, I'm fine.
Souta opens the door, revealing herself in a dress.
Junko: What on earth, Souta! Why are you wearing a dress?
Souta: What? Too much?
Junko: Too much for what? Wait, don't tell me you dressed up for Daru!
Souta: Do you think he'll like it?
Junko smacks her forehead.
Junko: Souta, you're wearing a green dress at a barbecue!
Souta: You didn't answer my question.
Junko: (sighs) I mean, yeah, I think so.
Souta: Okay! I'm going out there. Wish me luck.
Junko: Souta, are you sure?
Souta exits the bathroom and steps into the backyard. As she emerges, everyone notices her in a striking green dress, prompting Gram to choke on his food while Himitsu stands speechless.
Lith: S-Souta?
Yoshi: This is disgusting.
Reiji: I think she looks beautiful.
Sai: Who wears a dress to a barbecue?
Souta approaches and sits beside Daru.
Souta: H- (clears her throat) Hi, Daru.
Daru, absorbed in his meal, glances at Souta.
Daru: Hey...
Daru resumes eating.
Souta: Uh…
Gram: How! Just how! How does he get THAT!
Lance: Maybe because you're a ginger?
Koda: Or maybe because you're skinny?
Kora: Or maybe because you don't know how to talk to girls.
Gram: Alright! We get it… AND JUST FOR YOUR INFORMATION, I HAVE GAME!
Gram gathers his food and walks away to eat elsewhere.
Souta: So, um… Daru.
Daru: (eating) What?
Souta: Um… regarding the new update we received on our jump watches?
Daru: Yes, what about it?
Souta: I was considering adding your contact, BUT only for safety reasons.
Gram: Safety reasons?
Daru: Yeah, whatever, just do it.
Souta: Great!
Souta places her hand on Daru's jump watch, adds her contact, and retrieves his. She taps her screen to confirm and then taps his screen to finalize the process.
Daru: (wipes his mouth) Alright, is it done?
Souta: Yep! It's all done.
Daru: Great. Alright, everyone, let's go; it's getting dark.
Souta: What?! You're leaving already?! But I got dressed and everything!
Kono: W-what, already?
Himitsu: But I'm still eating!
Gram: Yeah, what about the lasagna?
Daru: Take it with you; I don't care. Plus, we have a big day tomorrow.
Lith: Oh, that's right. I heard you completed your 50th mission.
Reiji: Good luck!
Lith playfully hits Reiji on the head.
Reiji: Ouch!
Lith: Shut up!
Kono: Daru is right; it's getting dark, and we need rest for tomorrow.
Gram: Aww, man!
Ohma: Yes, sir, Daru!
Akira: Good, I'm full anyway.
Zodiac: Good! Finally, we can leave. I was getting a headache.
Lith: Yeah, we should go too.
Kora: Thank you, Becan! This was enjoyable, and I never realized how charming you truly are.
Iris: There she goes again. Lance, let's go.
Becan: Well, dudes and dudettes, thanks for coming! I hope we can do this again sometime.
Kono: Definitely, Becan! Thanks again for inviting us.
Becan: No problem! See ya!
The scene depicts everyone bidding farewell and departing, with Souta weeping on Junko's shoulder.
Souta: He didn't even look at my dress! Was I that ugly?
Junko: No, no, you're beautiful, Souta!
Souta: Really?
Junko: Yes! You're stunning!
Souta: Okay then, all I have to do is try harder.
Junko: What? No, don—
Souta: Thank you, Junko! You're the best!
Junko: (sighs) Yeah, anytime… oh boy.
