## Summary

Klaus visits the Inferno members grave and tells them that he completed the Impossible Mission. He also decides to bury Guido's finger there too, and explains that with his new team Lamplight, they will continue where inferno left off.

20 days before the Impossible Mission, the girls are wondering on how to defeat Klaus. They argue between themselves about a mistake in their previous plan, but Lily calms them down and they all agree that they should bond better. Erna doesn't believe a spy can afford giving their trust that easily and decides to go for a walk.

Erna walks into a back alley, talking to herself that she just wanted to remind them that spies should doubt everything, and that she doesn't feel that close with them as she arrived late. Some men surround her, believing that she is rich and want her to come with them. Erna feels unlucky and asks them to come with her into another alley, where she explains that she is always followed by accidents and tragedies, but she learned on how to predict them. In that moment, an accident occurs and building materials fall over the men. Erna returns and tells Lily that she wants to carry the next attack on Klaus by herself while the girls support her. As she goes to sleep, she hopes to defeat Klaus and prove herself to the girls, so they become proper friends and don't abandon her.

The next day, Erna meets Klaus while shopping by "accident". As she explains what she is shopping for, Klaus decides to help her as it will be too much for her to carry it. He walks with Erna when a car with a punctured tire heads towards him, but Klaus notices it and jumps out of the way. Erna is surprised of his fast reactions, but knows that there are more misfortunes on their way. They experience several accidents and misfortunes, but Klaus manages to handle them all. They get all of her items, but Erna still wants them to continue shopping. Klaus states he knows about her ability as teacher from her school told him. Klaus explains that she didn't get the respect she deserves and that she is lucky girl. Thanks to her, many people got saved, like the runaway car could have hit someone else. Erna can't believe it as she sees herself as a demon that brings misfortune to people. She feels another misfortune and wonders on what to do, but decides and asks Klaus to come with her.

She takes him elsewhere, where Klaus realizes they aren't alone and are surrounded. Several men then show themselves, believing that Erna is a councilman's daughter. As they also have a hostage, Klaus decides to surrender. Klaus and Erna are then taken elsewhere and tied up. Klaus wonders if the rest of the girls are following them, but Erna explains she dropped and broke the transmitter. Erna apologizes for bringing bad luck and guesses she needs to stay away from everyone.

Klaus and Erna are then taken to the men's boss, which is the man who tried to kidnap Erna the previous day and also tried running them today with the car. However, he got some good intel and decided to kidnap them. Klaus tells the man to not touch Erna, but he punches him, believing he is just some bodyguard. The man decides to kill Klaus, but Klaus asks him if he got his intel from a teenage girl. The man shoots at Klaus, but Klaus moves and makes each bullet hit his chains that tie him up. Klaus guesses that after the car accident, a silver haired girl gave him the intel and they kidnapped a black haired girl to be their hostage. Then they learned Klaus destination from a girl with white hair. The man is surprised he knows all of this. Klaus is impressed how fast the girl had improved in just ten days. Klaus wonders for how long he needs to play this game, after which the girls break into the place and defeat all the men. As the girls free Erna, they tell her that she gave them more good fortune that they hoped for. Klaus tells Erna that her misfortune isn't enough to kill him or the girls, and she should try working with the girls. The girls then believe they have caught Klaus, but in just a second, he frees himself from the chains.

The girls are wondering how Klaus managed to unlock the combination lock from their previous attack and now the chains. Erna believes she knows how. She explains that when they got caught, Klaus had a jewel in his mouth, which he used to buy off one of the guards. Then he annoyed the man, who kept shooting at him, which damaged and weakened the chains. Erna guesses he used the same trick for the combination lock and he paid one of them to get the combination in advance. Lily is surprised that one of them is a spy, but is told that all of them are spies. Thea states that one person kept chiming in each time the topic about the lock came up. The girls then turn towards Lily, who reveals that Klaus made her do it, stating that she needed to practice her lying, and that everyone need to practice doubting their allies. Monika then comes with a plan. Following it, Lily goes to inform Klaus she got new intel and attempts to attack him while he paints, but he ends up covering her in paint.

Erna tells Klaus that she believes she will get along with the girls and its all thanks to him. Klaus is glad to hear it, but states he has a lot to learn himself. Erna wonders if he will finish his painting. Klaus finds the question being good, and that he brought new paint, but it just isn't speaking to him.
