And now to make things worse, Mako gets attacked by the enemy! Return that girl's Pure Heart now! I am Sailor Moon! InTheNameOfTheMoon, I'll punish you!”''

9The Inner girls are concerned that Makoto has fallen in love with Haruka as she begins to hang out her and Michiru. As flattering as the cool couple's invitation was, however, the truth is far worse as Haruka only invited her as Makoto is the latest target for Kaolinite and her Daimon.
10----
11!! Tropes in this episode include:
12* AllAccordingToPlan: Sailor Neptune drops this phrase as the Daimon proceeds to take out Makoto's Pure Heart.
13* BeautifulAllAlong: Behind Scar's hideous mask lies a beautiful face.
14* BigWhat: Rei, Ami and Minako have this reaction after Usagi tells them about Makoto's outing.
15* BitchInSheepsClothing: Haruka comes up with the idea of spending extra time with Makoto alongside Michiru so they can be near her when the Daimon claims her Pure Heart. Though it's subverted in the end after Makoto is revealed not to be a Talisman holder so they can continue their friendship with her with actual sincerity.
16* BookEnds: Haruka uses her scarf to tend to Makoto's wound after crashing into her in the beginning. In the end, Makoto uses the same scarf to heal Haruka's wound.
17* CallBack: Minako admits that she can't blame Makoto "going out" with Haruka given her own experience.
18* ContinuityNod: Michiru mentions having met Makoto [[Recap/SailorMoonSEp03AHandsomeBoyHarukaTenohsSecret at the arcade]].
19* CrashIntoHello: Makoto becomes smitten with Haruka after she almost flattens her and Usagi with her wheels.
20* DubInducedPlotlineChange: The Cloverway dub awkwardly tries to re-write Usagi and the others thinking Makoto is in love with Haruka to Serena and the others thinking Lita would rather have Amara as her "best friend" than any of them.
21* IDidWhatIHadToDo: Even though she regrets toying with Makoto's feelings, Uranus accepts that she needed to do so to determine if she bears a Talisman or not.
22* FreudianSlip: After a gust of wind blows away her handkerchief, Makoto openly admits that it was her excuse to see Haruka.
23* HeteronormativeCrusader: In the original version, Usagi and the other Inners are strongly against the idea of Makoto falling in love with another woman and implore her not to give up on finding a boyfriend. In the Viz dub, this attitude is significantly downplayed.
24* HiddenInPlainSight: Usagi and her friends don't even notice Kaolinite as they walk by her in the middle of the city.
25* ItsAllMyFault: Sailor Jupiter blames herself for Haruka and Michiru getting hurt because they were close to her when Scar hunted her.
26* IJustWantToBeYou: Played with sincerity. Makoto became enamored with Haruka because of how strong and selfless she was as a woman while having a confident embrace of her masculine and feminine qualities. She hopes to herself that she can be a woman as confident as Haruka one day.
27* LikesClarkKentHatesSuperman: Makoto develops animosity towards Uranus and Neptune after realizing that they were "hiding" to take her Pure Heart while letting Haruka and Michiru, two people that she strongly admires, be attacked by Scar.
28* [[MalevolentMaskedMen Malevolent Masked Madame]]: The Daimon, Scar, wears a monstrous mask throughout her appearance.
29* MirthlessLaughter: Usagi and Makoto do this to brush off the possibility that Makoto would be romantically interested in another woman[=/=]Haruka.
30* MummyWrap: Scar's main attack involves mummifying Makoto with her many scarves.
31* NiceJobBreakingItHero: From Uranus' perspective, Moon and Mercury getting in the way of Makoto's attack robbed them of the chance to determine if she bore a Talisman or not.
32* OnlySaneWoman: While her friends are busy gossiping about Makoto having an interest in girls, Ami is the only one who's worried that she'll be in peril because of the Daimon.
33* PragmaticAdaptation: The original series heavily featured the Inner girls disapproving of the idea of Makoto falling in love with girls, so the Viz dub took multiple liberties to downplay this aspect.
34** In the original, the girls insisted that Makoto could still find a boyfriend and how she'd regret falling for a girl. Usagi in particularly constantly reminded her in harsh tones that Haruka is a woman. In the Viz dub, they're more concerned over the fact that she fell in love with Haruka [[OfficialCouple who's already in a relationship]] and were worried that Makoto was setting herself up for heartbreak as a ThirdWheel.
35** In the original, Rei was embarrassed that Usagi pulled out her ''All Girl Revue'' album just to embarrass her. In the Viz dub, she's more upset over Usagi's ruining her first edition album with her filthy hands.
36* SexyCoatFlashing: Scar does this to Makoto during her second attack.
37* ShoutOut: Usagi pulls out Rei's album which is based on Creator/TakarazukaRevue.
38* ShutUpKirk: Uranus isn't phased with Jupiter's accusation of her and Neptune being on the same level of despicableness as the Daimons.
39* SparingThemTheDirtyWork: Discussed. Uranus argues with Neptune that the Inner Guardians won't have the guts to sacrifice any of the Talisman holders in order to prevent the Silence. Therefore, she'd prefer it if she and Neptune kept themselves separate from the Inners while they look for Talismans.
40* SuddenlyShouting: Ami ends up doing this to get her friends to pay attention to the fact that Makoto will be in danger on her own.
41* TacticalWithdrawal: Kaolinite orders Scar to flee the scene after Sailors Moon and Mercury arrive to save Makoto.
42* WhatTheHellHero:
43** Jupiter calls out the Outer Guardians for always lurking in the shadows hoping to take the Pure Hearts of victims just like the Daimons.
44** As they're running, Neptune chastises Uranus for acting childish by beating up Jupiter.
45* WingdingEyes: Makoto gets stars in her eyes when she sees Haruka remove her helmet to attend to her after the crash.
46* TheWorfEffect: Jupiter, the brawny girl of the Inner Guardians, is easily beaten by Uranus after a single strike. Though it's revealed that Jupiter was able to land her own hit on Uranus.
47* YouRemindMeOfX: Rei assumes that Makoto fell for Haruka because she reminded her of her infamous heart-breaking sempai.
