Annoyed that Hana and Shinichi's relationship has not moved forward, Ami and Sakaki decide to shake Hana out of her confident attitude by telling her she might lose Shinichi to other women if she lets her guard down. While teaching Shinichi to cook croquettes at her house, Hana is still bothered by her conversation with Sakaki. Meanwhile, her mother once again misinterprets Shinichi's intentions when he asks what is her first name. The croquettes turn out really good though.

The Uzaki family go to a hotsprings resort, minus Kiri who is still traumatized after running into Shinichi. Fujio reminisces of the days when Hana was a child, and soon after arriving at the resort chases off guys hitting on Hana and Yanagi, and then Tsuki. He then gets surrounded by young men admiring his physique, which turns into a photoshoot as he basks in the attention. While the cat gets training from the resort's mascot, Hana goes wandering and runs into Shinichi and Sakaki. She offers to hang out with them but Shinichi tells her to spend time with her family. As they part, Hana gets Shinichi to compliment her bathing suit. Back to the Uzaki household, Kiri regrets not having joined his family's outing, while a now buff cat scares a bunch of the neighborhood's kitties.
