In the wake of the Rhyme battle, Aoba is left with a headache and missing memory; Koujaku visits; a strange man drops in front of the junk shop.

Aoba finds a stranger going through his computer; Aoba gets a call that Tae is in trouble.

Clear asks Aoba about mortality; Tae's tie to a larger plot is exposed; Mizuki and Dry Juice vanish.
