The episode begins with Kochou, a tabloid reporter, meeting Taipei, who is observing a building connected to Phantom Solitaire and Polka. Takeru instructs Taipei to cooperate with Kochou but to be cautious and not reveal too much. During their interaction, Taipei senses a deep, dark presence and compares it to a cage of wild beasts.

Misaki encounters Kochou and recognizes her. Misaki informs Kochou that Polka and Xiaoyu are unavailable as they are working. The scene shifts to Civil and Arahabaki, where Civil offers Arahabaki help, who insists on handling the situation himself.

A confrontation occurs between Taipei and Arahabaki, with Taipei noticing the presence of Heilei soldiers. The scene becomes chaotic as Takumi, Sayo, and Xiaoyu react to the commotion. Polka, concerned for Takumi's safety, instructs Misaki to escort Kochou outside. Civil, observing the situation, notes Misaki's calm demeanor in the face of danger and speculates about her role as a bodyguard.

In the episode, the character Sabaramond appears, described as an elemental devourer and ranked first among the court wizards. Sabaramond converses with Izliz about the use of mana and the power of spirits. Sabaramond expresses envy toward Polka due to his connections to spirits and a witch.

Civil decides to leave the scene and offers compensation for the trouble caused. Arahabaki, who was injured during the confrontation, is scolded by Civil for not dodging the attack. Civil reveals his surname, Sabaramond, and expects the old hands of the organization to react to this revelation.

The episode shifts to Higuro, who broadcasts a video about the "Bastard Children of Sabaramond," linking them to the infiltration of the police and Phantom Solitaire. Ryouma comments on a fake video featuring Solitaire, sparking public interest in the "Sabaramond" organization.

Inspector Iwanome and his team investigate the Fire-Breathing Bug's hostility toward the Sabaramond group and uncover a hundred-year-old arson incident that resulted in multiple deaths. The team speculates about the lack of media coverage of this incident and decides to investigate further.

Polka, disturbed by the abduction of the real Polka (the plush shark), has him guarded and contemplates a rescue plan. Takeru asks Polka for his divination services to identify the attackers and mentions a bizarre video uploaded by Solitaire.
