Tuxedo Mask has gotten desperate, and has revealed his objective of obtaining the Legendary Silver Crystal to Tokyo! The Dark Kingdom, seeing a golden opportunity, has sent Zoisite to capitalise on Tuxedo Mask's revelation, and put the whole city under a spell to find the Legendary Silver Crystal. The Sailor Guardians have to stop Zoisite... but can they trust Tuxedo Mask?
Tropes used in this episode:

- Heroic Self-Deprecation: Usagi falls into this, lamenting that she doesn't have powers like the others. Tuxedo Mask gently snaps her out of it.
