With the second team still missing, C considers declaring them traitors, but Klaus assures him that he can solve the issue himself. He then explains Lily and her team what the second team had been doing. Shortly after Lily's team left, Klaus designated Thea to lead the second team and issued a test where they would need to touch his hand before the end of the day. However, Monika, Erna, and Annette were notorious in their respective academies for having poor teamwork. Consulting with Klaus, Thea revealed that she wanted to become a spy after being saved once by Klaus' superior, Hearth. Klaus advised that Thea should be more direct with her teammates to get them to work together. She used her ability to discern people's desires to win over Erna and Annette, though she is troubled at how childlike the amnesiac Annette's desires are. Thea attempted to lure Klaus into a trap, only to learn that Monika had already pulled off her own plan, forcing Klaus to shake her hand after she sabotaged all of the mansion's faucets while using the others as a diversion. Klaus decides to take Lily to look for Thea's team while the others take care of his other missions. Meanwhile, Thea's team are relaxing at a swimming pool when Annette is suddenly hugged by a woman claiming to be her mother.
