In "Jaku-Chara Tomozaki-kun 2nd Stage - Episode 2," the episode revolves around an elaborate plan to motivate Konno Erika, who is struggling with personal issues. The plan, devised by Tomozaki and his friends, involves several steps to boost Konno's morale.
The strategy begins with Yuzu asking Konno for help in a tournament, knowing that Konno is willing to assist her friends. Hinami then subtly undermines Konno's athletic abilities in front of another friend, while Mizusawa informs Konno that Nakamura prefers sporty girls. The combined effect of these actions successfully motivates Konno.
Meanwhile, Tomozaki participates in the tournament but is quickly eliminated. However, his early exit surprisingly earns him the respect of his classmates. The plan seems to be working until Konno discovers that Izumi and Nakamura are in a relationship, which deeply unsettles her.
Konno's frustration leads her to target Hirabayashi, the shyest girl in the class. At first, her actions seem random, but it soon becomes clear that she is intentionally bullying Hirabayashi. Tomozaki wants to intervene, but Hinami suggests waiting, as Hirabayashi has not taken any steps to defend herself.
The situation escalates when Konno begins physically intimidating Hirabayashi. Just as Tomozaki is about to stand up for Hirabayashi, Natsubayashi Hanabi steps in and confronts Konno about her behavior. Konno responds with feigned innocence and manipulation.
As the class atmosphere deteriorates, Tomozaki notices a shift in Hinami's usual pragmatic approach when her close friend Hanabi gets involved. Hinami starts working closely with the middle-grade girls, while Mimimi stays near Hanabi to prevent the situation from worsening.
Tomozaki meets with Mimimi and Hanabi after school, where the usually cheerful Mimimi shows a more vulnerable side. She worries about whether she can effectively support Hanabi. Tomozaki reassures her but realizes how much the situation is weighing on Mimimi.
Tomozaki considers advising Hanabi to withdraw from the conflict, but Hinami firmly rejects this idea, displaying a rare deviation from her usual strategic thinking. Later, Tomozaki meets with Hanabi, who acknowledges the difficulties but refuses to back down. She believes in standing up for what is right and refuses to betray her principles.
Hanabi also expresses her admiration for Tomozaki's growth and change, asking him to teach her how to effectively confront the situation while staying true to herself. The episode ends with Tomozaki appreciating Hanabi's strength and character, looking forward to working with her to resolve the ongoing conflict with Konno.
