## Summary

Some days before the Mission Impossible, the girls suffer another defeat by Klaus and get caught in their own wiretraps. While they take a bath, Sybilla is surprised that there are no marks from the wires. Monika states she expected Thea to be more concerned about marks as her speciality is seduction, however Thea explains that she doesn't mind them as some men get turned on by rope marks or burns. As the conversation turns more sexual, Lily quickly changes the subject. The girls then propose that they do individual attacks as they don't always need to attack in a team.

Later, while going to bed, Thea invites Lily into her room and tells her that she didn't expect Lily to be such a later bloomer as she also should have been taught some seduction in her academy. Thea wants to teach Lily some techniques which Lily will then use on Klaus, stating that some men prefer more innocent looking girls like Lily, than confident looking like Thea. Lily isn't sure about it, but Thea states that everyone will compliment her for being a good leader if she managed to defeat Klaus and Lily agrees.

Lily goes to Klaus' room dressed as maid and explains that she remembered that in her previous life she was his younger sister and that also was a maid that loved giving him massages to easy his fatigue. Klaus isn't deceived by her play and Lily runs to her room ashamed. Thea expected this, but is still surprised how much self-control Klaus has.

The next day, Lily complains about Thea to Sara and explains what happened last night. Soon, Erna comes and complains about Annette, who keeps setting up traps and Erna keeps getting caught in them. Lily suggest that she is doing it to capture Klaus and make him say he surrenders, but Erna is sure that she is doing it just to torment her. Sara and Lily decide to follow Erna, who goes inside the mansion and sees a bulge in the carpet and decides to step on it, which then activates another trap. Annette shows up and complains that its Erna who got caught in the trap again and wishes someone else for a change to get caught.

At night, Grete sees that Klaus came back late and brought him dinner. She wanted to come in his room and serve him, but he kept refusing. The next day, Grete shares to Lily about what happened and explains that she just wanted to serve him, but he may have thought she was going to attack him. Lily recalls he never ate dinner with them and Grete confirms, stating he cooks for one and eats in his room. Lily then gets an idea.

Later the girls gather and Sybilla and Monika share that they challenged Klaus, but he defeated them. Lily states she has a plan, but needs the girls help and they agree to help her. Lily then shares that Klaus has a mission tomorrow in town. The next day, while Klaus is in town, they follow him, but he slips out. However, the girls expected this and keep following him using Bernard. They also question the people at the restaurant where Klaus ate and gather other info. At the end, Lily figures out that Klaus isn't eating with them because he has got food allergies and avoids certain foods. The girls then start cooking and Lily is happy to see Annette and Erna working together.

After Klaus returns, the girls serve him dinner, figuring he would be tired. From their research, they found out that he avoids beef, shrimp and anything with dairy. Klaus eats the steak and the rest of the meal and thanks them for the delicious food. The girls are annoyed and realize that he made them believe that what he wants to eat is what he doesn't like. Back in his room, Klaus states that meals are something you eat with your family and the more you share the same table, the deeper your bonds grow.

The girls sit to eat dinner and Lily is disappointed that her plan failed, but the rest comfort her. Sybilla is annoyed at how composed Klaus is and wonders how old is he. Erna explains that she had asked him and he is twenty years old. The girls are surprised to learn that he is almost their age, but then most of the girls get some idea on how to defeat Klaus.
