The chapter starts with Alpha asleep in her bed. Once her alarm rings, she begins her wakeup routine by stretching, drinking some water, and then rinsing her mouth with mouthwash. As she passes her attic stairs, she thinks it might be a good way to greet the day by going up to open the attic shutters. As she tries to do so however, she finds that the attic shutters are stuck shut, and she accidentally breaks one of the doors off as she kicks it open.  
The chapter starts with Alpha picking up a broom from some sort of vendor. As she sets off on her scooter, broom in tow, it begins to rain and she reflects on how the weather refused to cooperate with her even for a moment. Suddenly, in a brilliant flash of light, her broom is struck by a flash of lightning which knocks her off her scooter, and she lay on the ground in the rain.  


As Alpha repairs her shutters, she hears Ojisan's tractor approaching her café with a trailer full of watermelon. Ojisan explains that he is thankful for her supervision of Takahiro, and offers her watermelon in exchange. Alpha, who loves watermelon, excitedly rushes down, and sticks out her hands to receive one before Ojisan exclaims that the entire trailer is for her. Alpha and Ojisan talk about how bountiful the harvest was this year, and about how Ojisan has been spending the entire day trying to give watermelon away to anyone who might want some.  
Ojisan hears the nearby lightning strike and goes to investigate. After finding Alpha, he takes her to his lifelong friend Koumi'ishi, who is a doctor of sorts. After an examination, Sensei confirms to Ojisan that the lightning had only passed over her skin, and that she will be fine after a few days in her care. After checking in on Alpha, Ojisan head home.  


Alpha ends up with 12 watermelon as Ojisan drives off with his trailer still full. Unsure of what to do with them, she brings them into the café, and tries to pretty them up for customers by putting bows on them. Just as she finishes, two customers enter and giggle at the watermelons. As Alpha serves them, she tries to get them to take a melon, but the customers point out their truck already full of watermelons just outside the café. To end the chapter, Ojisan is seen sitting in front of his gas station, with a shelf full of watermelons. Sitting at a table, Alpha glances over at her own bow-tied watermelons, and chuckles at herself.  
Over the next two days, sensei replaces Alpha's damaged skin and burnt hair. After the first coat of skin, Alpha is concerned about the rough finish to it. Sensei confirms that it is just the first coat, and that after the second and finishing coat, it will be smooth as silk. Once sensei leaves, Alpha finds herself brought to tears by the kindness of those around her.  
 
When she is ready, Ojisan and Takahiro arrive to take her home. Takahiro, bursting through the door, finds Alpha attempting to style her new hair which is sticking up in every direction. Sensei and Ojisan follow Takahiro, and Sensei comments about how it will take roughly a week to calm down. Alpha finds herself brought to tears for a completely different reason this time.
 
Hugging Sensei goodbye, Alpha and her friends head back home. The chapter ends by her giving thanks to Ojisan, who comments that she is like family to them.
