The Miyamoto Research Lab episode. Becky gets her own private office to be herself in, Himeko fantasizes about her experiments and a whole bunch of stuff happens, particularly with respect to that monster-laden trapdoor in the ceiling. Watanuki of the Intelligence Club falls foul of that later in the episode - and with Ichijou's assistance, jumps from the frying pan into the fire after the end credits.

I love it the strange mix of affection and condescension that Rei displays when she strokes Becky's head. Also how but the latter doesn't resist or protest like the way she does when Himeko tries to hug her.

Becky's hau-hau never gets old. This time, it's Class Representative Ichijou's turn as she imposes self-study time so that the usual clique can go and explore Becky's new research lab.

Shiratori No.2

More Ichijou weirdness.

The tanning power of Miyako's reflective forehead.
Loved the way the whole gang emotionally blackmailed her into helping them.

Ichijou's shamisen martial arts and prelude to trouble. I also liked how the anime didn't show how the problem was resolved. We're only told that Ichijou was instrumental in resolving what she had started.

Suzune vs. Otome. Latter loses again, of course.

Like Becky's hau-hau, Kurumi trauma over being called plain never gets old.

Again Rei's two-sided relationship with Becky - affection shown by bringing snacks, drinks to have fun with her and bullying by refusing to give her the orange drink that she wants and forcing her to have peach instead.
