Sakura attends an athletic meet festival with Tomoyo, Toya and Yukito, with the four of them expecting Sakura and Toya's father and Tomoyo's mother later on in the day. In the meantime, Sakura enjoys the day, participating in the events. Syaoran is also in attendance, seeking to compete in the games as well. Later on, Fujitaka arrives in time for lunch while Tomoyo's mother, Sonomi, comes just a little bit after. When the two meet, they are unexpectedly surprised to see one another. It is soon revealed that they have met before.

During all of this, there has been a constant falling of flower petals seemingly from out of nowhere that noone really takes much notice of, until the falling turns swiftly into a storm. Sakura quickly realises that it has to be the work of a Clow Card and resolves to capture it before everyone at the event is swamped [[ItMakesSenseInContext in an overflow of petals]].

----
!!In the falling of petals came these tropes:
* {{Anticlimax}}: It turns out that the Flower card is just celebrating the festival in its own way and surrenders to being returned to its card form serenely.
* BigDamnHeroes: As the volume of falling flower petals continue to rise and flood the grounds, Toya and Yukito take over holding the finishing line ribbon for the parents' race from Chiharu and Rika before the two smaller girls are overwhelmed by it.
* BigEater: Yukito gobbles up blocks of food without taking a single breath.
* ButtMonkey: Aside from competing in the obstacle course and accepting Sakura's invitation to lunch, this is Syaoran's role in the episode.
* CutenessProximity: When the Flower card first sees Sakura, it is inspired to dance with her.
* {{Determinator}}: Sonomi has been attempting to [[ChallengeSeeker prove she's better than Fujitaka at something]] for years because she just cannot stand how [[AlwaysSomeoneBetter perfect he was to her late cousin]].
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: In the years since Nadeshiko's death, a furious Sonomi was never able to understand why Fujitaka keeps smiling despite the loss of his dear wife. He finally gives her an answer; he does it because Nadeshiko asked him to.
* FailureMontage: [[spoiler: Sakura]] is the only competitor that successfully makes it to the finishing line of the obstacle course.
* AFriendInNeed: Sakura invites Tomoyo to have lunch with her and her family to prevent her from feeling lonely after Sonomi is running late. She also extends a [[FriendlyEnemy similar invitation to Syaoran]].
* FriendlyEnemy: Fujitaka would rather not be an enemy to Sonomi, but for as long as she continues to hate him and seeks to outmatch him, he will always respond by meeting her challenges with his best effort as he feels doing anything less would be an insult to her.
** The Flower is a very playful Clow Card.
* ILetYouWin: Averted. Fujitaka refuses to enact this trope out of respect for Sonomi.
* ObliviouslyEvil: The Flower card
* PassionateSportsGirl: Sakura loves participating in the athletic meet.
* TheRival:
** Sonomi has hated Fujitaka for years, claiming that he stole Nadeshiko from her.
** Sakura and Syaoran seek to outdo each other at the obstacle course.
* RunningGag: Sakura + baton twirling = '''ouch!'''
* SayMyName: '''KINOMOTO-SENSEI!!!'''
* SoreLoser: [[spoiler: Sonomi]]
* SpannerInTheWorks: An unknowing Yamazaki prevents Syaoran from aiding in the capture of the Flower card.
* TeacherStudentRomance: How Fujitaka and Nadeshiko's love story began.
* WhamLine: Sonomi's maiden name is revealed to be Amamiya, the same maiden name Sakura's mother Nadeshiko shared. Toya informs Yukito that the two were actually first cousins. [[GeniusBonus This leads to the unspoken revelation that Sakura and Tomoyo are related.]]
