- Olivia is able to fix the broken wriststrap of Mallow's new Z-Ring like she made for Lana.
- Secret Test of Character: Both Oranguru and Tapu Koko give Mallow one. It pays off wonderfully.
- Determinator: Mallow doubted herself at first but didn't give up in the end through Tsareena, Shaymian and Oranguru encouragement as she grew more confident in her cooking skills.
- Took a Level in Badass: Mallow gets a Grassinium Z for giving Tapu Koko a good meal, and a Z-Ring from Oranguru for helping all the visitors in the restaurant.
- True Companions: Ash and his friends offer their help by working at Mallow's family restaurant while their friend was gone, which Abe was very grateful for.
