The Japanese representatives are at a beach, presumably in Melbourne, Australia. Coach Mifune sets up a Pick-Up Contest. The rules were bring a girl back to the group, if not, they would have to try Akuto's meshi (a rice dish). Mori samples one and immediately passes out. Now both teams are equal: 13 against 13. Oni is the first high schooler. He speaks English to a girl but he gets turned away. He falls victim to the meshi. Kintarō, not wanting to lose to Oni again, is the first middle schooler to go. He speaks Japanese to a lady but is rejected since he is 10 years too young.
