## Synopsis

Cash-strapped Seven flunks a crash course in professional killing and opens a hair salon as a cover. First assignment: cut off a bride's hair.

## Detailed plot

The episode starts with our protagonist Seven cooking beef offal at a stall. After being mocked by a kid for using over-the-top telekinesis skills to make a soup, his friend (and boss) Dai Bo proposed to him to start a killing business in order to make big money. Seven is skeptical at first because Dai Bo was also the one to guide him into the cooking business. To convince him, Dai Bo tells him he could get his lost memory back by earning 100,000 yuan and traveling to Stan, the most technologically advanced country in the world.

Before becoming a killer, Dai Bo gives Seven a crash course on the four essential killer skills. For infiltration, he issues him with a special invention of his, the Gaiba Egg. To escape from the scene he presents him Xiao Fei, a flying chicken who can help him away from tough situations. Unfortunately, Seven shows no talent in the other two assassins' skills as he is imprecise with his hits and unable to kill even a worm without hurting himself.

Fed up with Seven's failures, Dai Bo decides the best way to train him is to send him directly into the field. He gives him his first assignment: to cut a newlywed woman's hair. Seven initially hesitates because he doesn't want to bother someone on the best day of their life. Dai Bo changes his mind when he tells him they will be paid 500 yuan for the job.

At the wedding party, Seven gets distracted by a video montage of the newlyweds' memories together and starts crying from the emotion of people reviewing memories. He wonders why he lacks his own and what kind of person he used to be. He gets back to his senses to notice that every guest of the wedding is staring at him cutting the hair of the wrong person (the new husband). He quickly flees the scene, followed by angry guests, but not without first cutting the spouse's hair.

During his escape using Xiao Fei, he bumps into STAN the robot and asks him if there really is a technology that can help him get his memory back. The robot confirms the truth of this, but notices a fallen badge with the inscription "Seven" on it and asks Seven if it belongs to him. As soon as Seven said yes, the robot started attacking with laser beams saying that all people carrying such badges are the enemies of Stan and are to be executed. Seven tries to defend himself, but only manages to cut one arm of the robot off before he realizes he's outmatched. He asks the robot if he can tell him who he is and why he is an enemy of Stan.

Before the robot can answer, its head is cut off by a mysterious masked assassin. She asks Seven why he owns a badge of the killers league and threatens him with death if he doesn't answer. Before she can act on her threat, the robot self-destructs and Seven flees the scene with Xiao Fei. Once safe, he asks Dai Bo how one can contact the killer league, but they are a mysterious organization that can only be contacted when they get interested enough in you. Dai Bo tells him getting into the top 100 highest-ranking assassins should give him the attention needed for them to contact him. Seven officially agrees to become a killer and have Dai Bo as his agent, using a hairdressing shop as a front for their new business.
