Summary

When injuried Tsuruno stands up again and yells that she's strongest, Yachiyo knows her failure. Connection with Tsuruno is refused. Madoka feels they will hurt Mami if they try it, too. Uwasas of soldier bears appear everywhere so they can't retreat, either. In the hotel Fandthope, Touka is angry and saying she won't forgive them since Tsuruno is blowed so brutely. Nemu asks why it become so.

Iroha wants Yachiyo to try again. Yachiyo refuses since it won't work. She never try to understand Tsuruno. Tsuruno rushes to attack Yachiyo, so Iroha goes to protect Yachiyo.

Suddenly Iroha finds herself in a theater. Yachiyo, as an actress, speaks that she feels Tsuruno should be understood by her. Though it is not the case. Tsuruno, as another actress, shows up in the other side, tells watchers that she should and must be energinetic and strong. Mel gets up by Iroha's side, saying that according to her fortune telling, it is her most fortune day today. Yachiyo urges her not to tell fortune any more.

In the evening, there was so many customers in Banbanzai so Tsuruno was busy bringing meals to them. Yachiyo called her in the phone, told her a witch was found. But she then determined that they could win so it is no need for Tsuruno to come. However, when Tsuruno came to Mikazuki villa later, she was told Mel's death. Although Yachiyo, Momoko and Mifuyu tried to comfort her, Tsuruno believed that she is not trusted and too weak. She also blamed Mel's death caused by her absency.

After some days, She was told Mifuyu missing. Momoko was also busy training new novice magical girls. She believed that she must be much stronger, or her friends will be gone. She fought minions and witches alone or with Yachiyo. She was tired but still force herself. When Iroha came to Banbanzai first time, she got up quickly and had smile on her. But on that day she went to the memorial museum, she discovered that one witch(Etteilla) she killed is actually Mel's witch form. She was heart broken, calling Mel to forgive her. She hopes no more magical girls to become witches so she accepts alteration by Touka and Nemu. Returning to reality, Yachiyo and Iroha find they successfully connects to Tsuruno, and know what actually happened.

Tsuruno attacks them again, only being stopped by a huge hammer of Felicia. Felicia retorts Tsuruno not being strong at all. She also tells Yachiyo so. Knowing her mistake, Yachiyo determines to try connecting again. Iroha asks her how she expects Tsuruno to be when Tsuruno returns. Yachiyo answers that they all not need to be strong. Just help each other.
