Naofumi keeps roaming around the school until he meets Wilhelm and explains to him that he was fighting a monster alongside his companions Raphtalia and Filo when he suddenly was transferred to the school and is searching for them since then. Meanwhile, Kazuma and Ainz meet Raphtalia, who is also looking for Naofumi while Subaru and Aura find Filo with the other pets and start riding her. With the other students playing baseball together, Raphtalia eventually reunites with Filo and just when the two are about to be hit by a stray ball from Mare, Naofumi arrives and uses his shield to protect them. With the three reunited, Naofumi, Raphtalia, and Filo decide to stay at the school with the others until they find a way back to their own world.

Inside the Principal's Office, Aqua grabs a bottle of the "red stuff" and unwittingly sets off a security system, forcing the group to disarm the traps. After they disarm the traps, the system then summons four giant toads from the Konosuba world. With five people in the heist group, Tanya's comrades sacrifice themselves to save Aqua, but Kazuma uses his stealth skill and the last toad chases Aqua through the hallway.

Class 2 will have an SAT-style test, so everybody has study sessions. During the test, Ainz is nervous because he was a slacker in school, so he tries to cheat by freezing time so he can copy answers. He is shocked when Aqua, Tanya, and Subaru are still able to move in frozen time. The three wander the room wondering what is going on because Ainz pretends to also be frozen. When the time freeze ends, everybody is able to quickly return to their seats except for Aqua, whom Roswaal accuses of cheating and fails.

To even out the teams, Rerugen orders Naofumi, Raphtalia, and Filo to participate. The highly destructive game ends in a draw when the ball bursts.

They draw lots to decide Ram will play Cinderella, Rem will play the Prince, Aqua will play the Fairy Godmother, Shalltear will play the stepmother, Darkness and Demiurge will play the stepsisters, and Ainz, Tanya, Kazuma, and Subaru will play the horses pulling the pumpkin carriage, which infuriates Shalltear who wanted Ainz to play the Prince and herself to play Cinderella. Naofumi is annoyed that he has to play the Ugly Duckling himself. Hamsuke and Death Knight report to the teachers that Destroyer has broken out from where it was buried.
