“Dearest Mamo-chan, please forgive me. I allowed a man other than you, my beloved, into my home. Even worse, mom and dad are out so now I'm all alone with him in my room! YES I KNOW, IT'S VERY VERY BAD! But don't worry, your Usako isn't that easy.”
— Usagi Tsukino
Usagi ends up having to stay home alone with Chibi Chibi while her family goes out for the night. And fearful over the recent string of burglaries, she invites Seiya over to keep her company. But their small get-together soon becomes an unprecedented house party due to the arrival of some Interrupting Inners, two trespassing teen idols, out-of-nowhere Outers, a hungry host and an attack by animus Animamates.
Tropes in this episode include:
- Adaptational Context Change: In the original version, Sailor Uranus asked Sailor Moon how many unit sizes her living room was with Moon giving a solid answer. In the Viz Dub, Uranus comments that the room is rather small while Moon admits that she never considered how small it really was.
- All Men Are Perverts: Discussed lightly. The p-word isn't mentioned but Luna warns Usagi that men will inevitably act on instinct and try to take advantage of any girl they come across.
- As You Know: Usagi's friends start the episode warning her about a recent outbreak of home invasions. One of which threatened an old lady with a knife.
- Bait-and-Switch: When the Outer Guardians make their grand entrance, Siren looks on utterly horrified.Sailor Aluminum Siren: I don't believe this!
Sailor Lead Crow: That's right you, you tell them!

- Call-Back: Sailor Moon brings back "Moon Tiara Action" only with a pizza instead of a tiara.

- Continuity Nod:
- Seiya appears before the Inners wearing his football uniform.
- The girls wear their cute aprons from the SuperS Movie.
- Haruka and Seiya are still hostile with each other.
- Contrived Coincidence: Happens some times over the course of the episode:
- The fan belt to Haruka's car breaks in the same vicinity as Usagi's house, giving her and Michiru incentive to pop in for a visit.
- A TV host that has a show about dinners at random people's houses shows up at Usagi's house precisely in that same night.
- Aluminum Siren and Lead Crow decide to attack said TV host while he is at Usagi's house.
- Covert Pervert: When Seiya walks around half nude, Usagi has her eyes covered while Rei, Minako and Makoto stare on in wonder. Ami also has her eyes "covered' but just enough so she can peek.

- Usagi sums up Luna warning her about men acting on instinct as her not like them.
- Subverted with Haruka. When Usagi brings up that she doesn't like men, Michiru clarifies that she doesn't like popular men in particular.

- Michiru casually reveals that Haruka doesn't hate men. She hates popular men. As in, men who have better luck with the ladies then she does.Usagi: I heard that Haruka doesn't like men.Chibi-Chibi: Doesn't like men!Yaten: Oh, so that's the reason.Haruka: Don't listen to her.Michiru: Haruka doesn't like popular men.The Inner Senshi: That makes sense!Haruka: No, it doesn't make sense!
- Michiru casually reveals that Haruka doesn't hate men. She hates popular men. As in, men who have better luck with the ladies then she does.
- I'm a Humanitarian: Sailor Sommelier tries to take a literal bite out of Minako, labeling her as an appetizer.
- Imagine Spot: Luna imagines a police dog man watching over a happy sheep only to turn into a hungry werewolf who gobbles her up. All of this is a metaphor for Seiya taking advantage of Usagi during his upcoming visit.

- Missed Him by That Much: Probably one of the most egregious examples of this in the entire series.
