As a typhoon hits the city, the roads become blocked by landslides. Hiro, Hime, Riza, and Reiri are forced to stay at a motel until the weather lets up. However, "that", a spider-like monster, haunts the motel, sucking out the life force out of two guests. Although Hime and Reiri ignore the situation by playing chess, Hiro and Riza gather the other guests and take them outside to look for "that". When they see "that" coming out of another guest, Hiro and Riza fail to capture it. In the lobby, "that" shoots out of a fourth guest and tries to possess the fifth guest. As Hiro and Riza are unable to prevent "that" from possessing the fifth guest, Hime steps in and strikes it with a broken cue stick.

While she goes out shopping, Flandre meets an android named Ciel and brings him to be repaired. In return, he does various chores around the mansion. He tells Flandre that he worked as a miner three years ago, but he escaped and traveled to a shoreline, seeing the ocean and feeling free. However, Ciel finds out from Hime that his memories were programmed rather than experienced. Before his departure from the mansion, he tries to kidnap Hime, fairing well against Flandre. Sherwood and Francisca arrive, and the latter damages Ciel. He requests to have some of his parts transferred to Flandre to save her life. He returns to Zeppeli, responsible for all of the recent attacks thus far. Having a time bomb strapped to his body, Ciel detonates after confronting Zeppeli regarding his programmed memories.
