Plot
Kobayashi heads to work, and Kanna, curious about where she's going, wants to accompany her. Tohru advises Kanna against interfering with Kobayashi's job, mentioning their own plans for the day. Kobayashi asks about their plans, and Tohru explains that they're intending to show Kanna more about the human world and that she will train Kanna to be perfect. Kobayashi finds Tohru's plan surprising and comments that no one is perfect, including Tohru.

Despite Kanna's attempts to go with Kobayashi, Kobayashi leaves for work. Tohru then decides to teach Kanna about common sense, warning her about traffic rules. Kanna asks Tohru about cars, and Tohru, with a mistaken understanding, describes them, mentioning something like cars using a kind of magic and needing a license to operate. Kanna wonders if Kobayashi has a license, and Tohru explains she does but doesn't own a car due to maintenance and parking expenses.

Kanna questions why Tohru doesn't carry Kobayashi to work, which prompts Tohru to consider the question. At work, Takiya and Kobayashi discuss Kanna. Kobayashi expresses concerns about Tohru teaching Kanna, and Takiya offers reassurance.

Meanwhile, Tohru and Kanna encounter things in the human world. Tohru mistakes a see-saw for a training device for catapults, revealing her lack of understanding. She explains about humans and dragons coexisting peacefully, cautioning against revealing their true forms. They discover a crepe shop, and after trying some crepes and comparing them to foods from their world, Kanna asks about other dragons and Tohru's reasons for coming to the human world. Tohru shares a story of a battle where Kobayashi saved her, leading her to become Kobayashi's maid as gratitude.

Later, Kanna asks if they can visit Kobayashi at work. Tohru agrees, and they transform into their dragon forms using perception blocking. From her workplace, Kobayashi catches a glimpse outside but thinks it's just her imagination.
