This is the third episode of the Dropkick on My Devil! anime.

## Summary

### Part 1

Minos grills a couple of lobsters (crawfish) in the back of the apartment with Beth and is soon joined by Yurine. It's revealed that Jashin-chan gave her a bunch of them after fishing up a basket full from the local canal. When Minos ask Yurin if she wants some, she consistently declines every time she's offered. So, Minos and Beth enjoy the "lobsters" together.

### Part 2

It's Christmas time and Pekora walks alone down the shopping district. She soon sits on a park bench and eats some bread crusts from her bag to satiate her hunger. As she's eating, Pekora overhears a couple of boys talk about what they want for Christmas. She thinks that Saint Nick must have his hands full to want to fulfill their wishes and thinks about her own wish. Immediately, she scolds herself for such an impertinent desire when she's not even human. Almost choking on her food, Pekora nearly drinks all of her milk that was supposed to last the entire day. Desiring to taste the delicious flavor of curry again, Jashin appears sitting next to Pekora enjoying a plate of curry while wearing a Santa hat. Believing that the lamia is a spirit of Saint Nick, the notion is squelched when Jashin finishes the plate of curry. Sequentially, Jashin enjoys another plate of curry in front of the famished Pekora and when she's finished, demands Pekora's bag of bread crusts. The two get into a heated argument about the bread crusts and during it, Pekora spills her milk. Taking advantage of Pekora's shock, Jashin dropkicks and steals her bag of bread crusts. Now in possession of the bread crusts, Jashin taunts Pekora until Yurine arrives. She reveals that Jashin was supposed to go home with the curry she purchased for them while she bought some chicken. Seeing that both currys were eaten by Jashin who feigns ignorance, Yurine punishes her by tearing off her cheek. As a form of retribution for Jashin's actions, Yurine offers Pekora fried chicken. The angel tries to decline, however, Yurine insists and takes Jashin home to help "decorate" their Christmas Tree. Overwhelmed with emotion, Pekora graciously thanks Yurine for her kindness. That night, Beth enjoys Jashin's tail meat while Yurine informs an unconscious Jashin that the reason why Santa's clothing is red. Elsewhere, Persephone II is shown lying on the snow-covered streets calling out for Jashin.

### Part 3

Jashin finishes her personal exercise regimen that will improve her drop-kick attack. Believing her abs to be as hard as steel, Jashin requests that Yurine punch her in the stomach to test them out. Yurine obliges and knocks the wind out of with a single punch. At that moment, the doorbell rings and it's the ice devil sisters Yusa and Kori. Inside the apartment, the guests are offered tea and cake. With the tea frozen by the blizzard that Yusa manifests, Yurine kindly asks her to stop it and she does so. Yurine then starts a conversation noting how the two sisters look nothing alike. Yusa answers that it's because Ice Devils' appearances not only change when they mature. Also once they reach a certain age they receive a name and become full-fledged devils. Suggesting a name for Kori when she becomes a full-fledged demon, Yurine suggests the name, Kōji although that's a boy's name. The conversation then changes as to why the two have come over to visit. Apparently Kori wanted to see Yurine and they brought over a present for her. Also, Yusa wanted to "thank" Jashin as well, while then giving her a killer stare. Kori then informs Yurine about the couple of misdeeds that Jashin did to her. These actions have traumatized Kori, but Jashin chastises her as a lower class demon causing her to cry. Yusa then defends her sister and claims that Jashin's words insult their proud family's name. Jashin then sardonically berates the Ice Demon's family name and Kori's appearance. This triggers Yusa's wrath that manifests another blizzard. So in retaliation, Jashin distracts Kori and then tries to dropkick the young Ice Demon with her newly acquired "abs of steel". Yusa though freezes Jashin solid mid-air and she's broken in half once she hits the ground. Thanks to Yurine's request, Jashin is let off the hook... for now.

### Part 4

After withdrawing money from the bank, Medusa visits Jashin to give it to her. Yurine comments on how lecherous Jashin is when it comes to her taking Medusa's money and never paying her back. Riddled with guilt, Jashin tries to claim that she does pay her back, but Medusa claims that she doesn't have to. Elated by this news, Jashin compliments Medusa, leaving Yurine unamused by Jashin's subtle selfishness. Yurine then claims that Medusa's pampering towards Jashin enables her to act like a scumbag. Hearing this shocks Medusa and Yurine further claims that she should act more responsible toward Jashin. Chiming in, Jashin tries to emotionally manipulate Medusa to take her side. When Medusa tries to defend herself, Jashin berates her. This hurting Medusa's feelings and she leaves emotionally distraught while claiming she'll never return to the human world again. As Medusa leaves, Jashin claims that she doesn't need her. With Medusa gone, Jashin notes her remorse as she was her personal "ATM". Afterward, Jashin drowns her sorrows at a restaurant by ordering several glasses of strawberry juice. After having her fill, Jashin leaves the restaurant and has a breakdown about how nobody loves her anymore. She then apprehends a passing by salaryman and begs him to love and take her away. As she does this, Medusa arrives with Yurine whom consoles the emotional Jashin, all while Jashin calls Medusa her personal ATM. Later, Medusa offers Jashin to have curry together, but Jashin wasted all of her money on her strawberry juice binge. So Medusa offers to pay for the bill. This elates Jashin and as the two head off, Yurine notes how Medusa has enabled Jashin to become the "Ultimate Scumbag.
