Episode 1 begins with Natsuki waking from a nightmare and meeting Catherine, who proposes a plan for him to become wealthy. Despite his skepticism, Natsuki accepts a device from her and leaves his quarters on a boat docked in the harbor.

Catherine discusses a controversial energy project on the radio, prompting Natsuki to argue with her. Their conversation is interrupted by Natsuki's classmate Minamo, who invites him to school. Catherine mentions a treasure in the sunken house of Natsuki's deceased grandmother, leading to the plan of retrieving the treasure using a submarine.

Natsuki dives to his grandmother's house and discovers a capsule containing a humanoid robot girl named Atri. Atri awakens and is brought to the surface by Natsuki. Atri explains that she comes from a factory that produces high-quality humanoids but was recalled for unknown reasons. Catherine wants to sell Atri, but Atri insists on getting Nonko's permission, only to learn that Nonko is dead. Atri then accepts Natsuki as her new master.

Minamo urges Natsuki not to sell Atri. As they take Atri to a potential buyer, Atri vaguely recalls a task assigned by Nonko. Despite Catherine's intentions to sell, Natsuki hesitates. The episode ends with Atri promising to support Natsuki and become his "legs."
