== Summary ==
To infiltrate the prestigious Eden Academy, the entrance interview requires both a father and a mother. Loid attempts to disguise Franky as a woman to play the mother but unfortunately fails despite his superior skills, claiming that there is only so much he can do with Franky's body type. Franky angrily stomps off while Anya offers him a peanut as consolation. Loid resigns himself to having to find a wife.
At Berlint City Hall, Camilla, Millie, and Sharon discuss a burglar that snuck into the offices to steal the personnel files of female residents. Camilla tries to bring Yor Briar into the conversation, but she is not paying attention. They make fun of Yor's aloofness and try to suggest fashion and cosmetics to her. Camilla mockingly warns Yor of being considered suspicious because of her lack of a partner at the age of 27 while making fun of her. She relates the story of a 30-year-old bachelorette who was reported by her neighbors. After Yor obliviously thanks them, Camilla invites Yor to a party at her place during the weekend, reminding her to bring a date.

At Yor's apartment, she receives a call from her brother, Yuri, who checks up on her and asks if she intends to get married soon. Yuri further explains that he is getting a promotion soon but is reluctant to accept it while his sister is still alone. They share a touching conversation where Yuri expresses that he simply wants to see her happy in return for all the care she has given him. In order to reassure her brother, Yor brings up the party Camilla invited her to and lies that she is bringing a date. Hearing this, Yuri says he will ask his friend about Yor's date to ensure he is suitable and hangs up. Upon hearing this, Yor is stressing about Yuri finding out her lie when the phone rings again. It turns out to be her employer, who she refers to as "Shopkeeper," calling about a client for the "Thorn Princess" at the Royal Hotel, Room Number 1307.
At the hotel, a woman in black approaches several guards in suits and takes them down, breaking a door. A guard tries to warn of the intruder but gets stabbed from behind instead. Yor Briar is revealed to be an assassin codenamed "Thorn Princess," now hired to target Brennan of the Auditing Board and proceeds to kill everyone in the room. Later, Yor is in the bathroom of the same room, trying to wash her hands of blood, and notices her dress has a rip. She becomes dismayed as that is her only good dress and is reminded about bringing a date to the party.
At the Forger Residence, Loid is still struggling to find an appropriate woman to marry that also satisfies several of his difficult requirements. Franky has obtained a list of unmarried women from City Hall for Loid to choose from. Franky questions why Loid does not just use a female spy for the role, and Loid comments that the recent spy hunting has caused most of the female spies in WISE to be wiped out. Loid decides to improve Anya's appearance after Franky points out her unseemly behavior.
At a boutique in Ostania, Loid brings Anya to measure her for clothing. Loid considers the seamstress and owner of the store as candidates but is startled by Yor Briar speaking up behind him without him noticing, requesting her dress to be mended. Loid discreetly stares at Yor, recalling all the information he knows about her, which Yor notices, much to his shock. Loid makes up an excuse that he was staring due to her attractiveness and Yor tries to invite him as her date, only to be interrupted by Anya calling for Loid and becomes hesitant due to assuming he has a wife. Anya reads Yor's mind, causing her to find out about Yor's secret job. Anya acts like she misses her mother on purpose so that Yor will find out Loid is unmarried, allowing her to ask him to be her date and explain her reasons. Loid accepts, but under the condition that she will play the role of the mother at the interview and schemes to get her to agree to marry him afterward. Both agree to meet on Saturday at the party.
While Loid and Anya are grocery shopping, Loid receives a cipher and a secret message from the cashier that turns out to be instructions for taking down a smuggling ring planning to steal antiquities from the West at the same time he is meeting Yor on Saturday. To resolve the mission quickly, Loid brings Franky along as an assist, despite his poor fighting ability, and bribes him with a few of the smuggled antiquities. Meanwhile, Yor is waiting for Loid near the subway and is concerned with how late Loid is. Loid has managed to get the smuggled antiquities, beating up a large group of smugglers in the process. While inspecting the goods, Loid claims a diamond ring for himself, getting into an argument with Franky. While they argue, a car with some surviving smugglers drives out in front of them.
Yor has been left waiting at the station and she assumes she has been played, but decides to attend the party on her own to prevent her brother from worrying. At the party, her co-workers greet her and mock her for not coming here with her supposed date. Yor asks Dominic, Yuri's aforementioned friend, to lie to Yuri that she brought a nice man, but Camilla interrupts due to Dominic being her boyfriend and says she will tell Yuri about her coming alone. Yor is tempted to kill everyone to prevent Yuri from knowing she came alone but quickly brushes those dark thoughts aside.
Seeing everyone socializing with each other, Yor concludes that she cannot live a "normal" life and decides to leave early, but Loid arrives bleeding and introduces himself as Yor's husband by mistake, which Yor corrects discreetly. Camilla, jealous about Yor's handsome husband, tries to spill a pan of hot macaroni au gratin over Yor in an attempt to embarrass her but gets embarrassed instead when Yor uses her leg to catch the pan and some gratin spills on Camilla's nose. Camilla is undeterred and continues to bring up Yor's previous work where she would be summoned to hotel rooms for special "massages," which was, in fact, a euphemism for her assassin work. Yor tries to justify herself to Loid but is surprised when Loid expresses his admiration for her working hard to provide for her younger brother, moving Yor. Loid excuses themselves, and they leave the party together.
In the van, Loid apologizes for mistakenly saying he is her husband. Yor tries to propose an idea but is interrupted by a car slamming into the van's side. Loid recognizes the drivers as survivors of the smuggling ring and pretends that they are his patients suffering from hysteria, quickly driving away from them. The smugglers discover the now-abandoned van and split up to try and find Loid and Yor at an old factory. Loid sneaks up on one with a block and knocks him out, snapping a pipe as a weapon while running elsewhere with Yor. Yor is concerned about his violence toward his patients, which Loid lies is a new therapy method called "concussive therapy." Loid throws a pipe he picked up at a smuggler coming up behind them but is unable to dodge another smuggler attacking from above. Yor proceeds to kick the smuggler away, helping Loid. Loid thanks her, and they both laugh about how she sent the smuggler flying before getting interrupted by a smuggler shooting at them.
While running away, Yor proposes that they get married as an extension of Loid's original condition, surprising Loid. Loid agrees and tries to find the diamond ring to propose to her but discovers that it has been lost. He notices a grenade near an unconscious smuggler and grabs it before ducking behind a generator. Loid pulls the pin and hurls the grenade at the smugglers while using the pin as a wedding ring. The smugglers blow up as Loid says his wedding vows to Yor, the two of them pledging themselves to another until the end of their respective jobs.
