General

• The Kiryu twins are running a VTuber channel called Dark Night Lights, using nicknames and cat-themed masks to hide their faces, with scenes from their channel appearing in several episodes, with it being more a Boke and Tsukkomi Routine, with Kaoru as the straight one to Michiru's random tangents, than anywhere near a serious channel, with the only notable thing is that, between the comedy skits and randomness, they are incredibly good at spotting where Shadows are spawning.

Episode 1

• Nozomi nearly trips on her way to meeting Rin. After Rin stops her from falling over, she tells Nozomi that she didn't need to run to her like she is still in middle school.
  Rin: You're a grown up now, so walk like one.
  Nozomi: Don't worry! At school, I act like a mature teacher.
  Rin: I wish you would act like a mature teacher around me too.
• Rin and Nozomi are talking about some of the difficulties they are having at work, when Nozomi decides to get the barkeepers' attention by asking them to make something tasty for them.

There is then an Imagine Spot of Nozomi about to transform into Cure Dream, only for reality to come back and show that Nozomi said that out loud and people are staring at her and Rin. Rin immediately starts apologizing for Nozomi's behavior and asks if Nozomi is drunk.
• It turns out that Nozomi's stunt was able to get the attention of Urara, Komachi, and Karen, who happened to be in the area. So what does Nozomi decide to do after seeing her fellow Pretty Cures for the first time in years?
  Nozomi: All right, let's go drinking! It's decided!
• Kurumi's introduction is her at a bar, complaining to Kenta Hoshino about the fact that her coworkers got annoyed at some advice she tried to give him. The look on his face makes it clear that he really has no idea how to react to this.
  • And when Nozomi and company happen to arrive at the same bar that Kurumi is at, Nozomi almost calls Kurumi Milk in her surprise.
  • And then she almost gives away that they were Pretty Cures when the owners ask how they knew one another.
    Nozomi: Yes we're former Pre..

  • When Karen asks if Rin is okay, Nozomi just says that this is how Rin normally is when she is drunk.

    Komachi: Rin-san is troublesome when she is drunk.

  Karen: I wouldn't put it past Nozomi.
  Everyone: For sure!
