Barkhorn gives Miyafuji a tour of the Strike Witches base and a lesson on the day to day routines and chores. Minna is determined to showcase her non-existent cooking skills. Miyafuji, Yeager, and Hartmann are put on standby and spend the day sunbathing.
Tropes in this episode:
- Artistic License – Geography: In Universe. Yeager and Hartmann look out over the ocean from Britannia and start calling out the Neuroi in Southern Europe. Barkhorn points out they are looking at Northern Europe.
- Bad News in a Good Way: After Barkhorn passes out in a puddle of blood she vomited up, Minna gleefully states that her soup is also good for constipation.
- Be Careful What You Wish For: Yoshika is afraid she is going to get sunburned while waiting around on standby so she is given a heavy coat and hat to wear. She passes out from heatstroke.
- Embarrassingly Painful Sunburn: Happens to Yeager and Hartmann after they spend the day sunbathing. Barkhorn says they got what they deserved.
- Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Bishop is supposed to keep an eye on Minna to make sure she doesn't do anything to their meal, but she runs away instead.
