As they recharge their battery powered motorcycle, Youko and Airi explore the cafe at the Hakone Taikanzan. Airi later finds the wreck of Maneuver Combat Vehicle and a nearby support truck containing rations. As they rested awhile, Airi noticed that the MCV's sensors are actually watching them, then suddenly springs back to life, and proceeds to attack them. Airi disables the MCV using her arm-mounted plasma cannon, then Yoko permanently shuts the AI off. They later took a side trip to Hakone's hot springs, where Yoko had flashbacks of their trips to Hakone with her big sister, before heading to Yokohama Minatomirai next.
