This episode was a special episode released after the seven listed above. It begins on a sunny day Tenchi is seen waking up when he sits up he sees Ryoko's head floating there with her body phased into subspace. Her eyes are bloodshot because she's been up all night watching him. Tenchi leaves his room with Ryoko following quickly behind. He goes to a room and says that he needs his privacy. When Ryoko asks him why he points to a sign on the door which says "Restroom". Tenchi goes into the bathroom alone but when he sits down on the toilet Ryoko's head is there looking through the wall. Next Ryoko can been seen scratching at the door like a dog trying to get out of the rain. While Tenchi is changing in the bathroom he sees the ring which Tsunami gave him on his finger. When he goes to take it off he activates it and changes into his battle gear. A small seed falls out of his clothes and he picks it up. Ayeka is walking by while Ryoko is scratching at the door, but the two just stare at each other. The door Ryoko is leaning against is suddenly opened and Ryoko falls in while Tenchi comes out. He goes up to Ayeka and hands her the seed. The seed is Ryu-Oh's. With this seed Ayeka can revive Ryu-Oh in time.

The next scene is in Washu's subspace lab. Ayeka comes in asking if there's something that she can build for Ryu-Oh's seed. At first Washu is angry and refuses to help because she insists that she be called Little Washu (Washu-chan in Japanese). After Ayeka breaks down and calls her Littler Washu she says that she'll help her. Washu hands her a flower pot which Ayeka quickly smashes over her head. Meanwhile outside Washu's lab Mihoshi and Sasami are reading comics for girls which belong to Tenchi's father...but that's his business. Ryoko wakes up wondering what all the fuss is about and Sasami tells her that they're reading how to get guys Earth style. Ryoko realizes that these comics might give her a hint on how to get Tenchi and begins reading. Back inside Washu's lab she opens a portal to subspace and takes out a shell which looks much like Ryu-Oh's. Washu tells her that Kagato made it to keep Tsunami in and it should be perfect for Ryu-Oh.

Tenchi is in the field farming carrots when Ryo-Ohki shows up Tenchi tells her that "All these carrots are just for you." Ryo-Ohki becomes excited and begins digging into the ground but Tenchi tells her that they're not ready yet. After that Tenchi goes home and when he comes into the house, Sasami is making lunch. She asks if he'll go get everyone. First he goes into Washu's lab. When he gets there he asks where's Ayeka. She tells him that she's planting carrots...or something. Ryo-Ohki quickly runs away. Washu decides to she needs Tenchi for a few experiments when suddenly a large contraption comes up behind him and ties him up.

Ayeka is gently planting Ryu-Oh in the unit. When she goes to get some water she finds Ryo-Ohki digging up the seed. She screams at Ryu-Ohki "This is not a Carrot!" Back in Washu's lab Tenchi is being held in an uncomfortable position. Washu says that she needs just one more sample. She puts on a nurse's uniform and tells him that she needs a sperm sample. When she's just about to use her "Magic Fingers" Mihoshi comes up behind her and asks what's she's doing. Washu can't figure out how she just stumbled into her subspace lab. Mihoshi leans on a console and little Ryo-Ohki and Ryoko dolls begin to pop out.

In the next scene Tenchi is outside sweeping and Ryoko closes the book she's reading. She walks up behind Tenchi and kicks him over. When he starts to help her up, she tells him that her name is Ryoko. And in the middle of her dramatic moment scripted directly from the comic book Mihoshi shows up and asks why Ryoko's face is red. Ryoko tries to send her away but she's worried about her and takes her away to treat her illness. As Mihoshi drags Ryoko up the stairs Ayeka and Sasami are standing there listening. Sasami tells her sister that Ryoko has been reading Nobuyuki's books. The next scene Ayeka is there reading books. Tenchi is on his way up the hill to his grandfather's shrine when he stumbles and falls. Ayeka comes rushing up and gives him her handkerchief. As she leaves she tells him that her name is Ayeka. Tenchi confused pulls his foot up and there's a rope tied around it. At the top of the hill Tenchi and his grandfather are working, when Tenchi's grandfather asks him what the girls are up to? They look over and the two are trying poorly to hide behind Azaka and Kamidake. They quickly leave after being spotted.

Back to the house Ayeka and Ryoko are looking for new ideas. Ayeka bribes Ryo-Ohki with the promise of carrots if she delivers a letter to Tenchi. She hurries to the top of the shrine. While Ryoko decides that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. When Ryo-Ohki samples the food Ryoko has made she passes out.
After many failed attempts to get Tenchi on their own, Ryoko and Ayeka decide to team up. Ryoko, pretending to be Mihoshi's superior officer, calls up Mihoshi and orders her to report back to GP Headquarters. While Ayeka sets up a forcefield at Washu's door. After the two have successfully eliminated all rivals, Ryoko turns on Ayeka and ties her up. Ryoko sneaks up the stairs and just when she's opening the door she's whisked away into the middle of the lake by a small guardian placed above the door. Ryoko storms into the house where she finds Ayeka untying herself. The two begin to fight.

Sasami is walking in complete darkness when suddenly she falls through and hits her head. After falling some distance Sasami is seen lying in a pool of her own blood. Tenchi appears and reaches out a hand to help her. But just before they touch, a large hands grabs him. Sasami sees a strange woman, which later turns out to be Tokimi, and wakes up crying.

Back in the hall Ryoko and Ayeka are still fighting. Sasami walks by crying and they both stop. She goes to Tenchi's door and knocks. Tenchi opens the door and lets her in. She asks if she can sleep with him tonight. Tenchi says OK and Washu and Ryo-Ohki can be heard in the room. When Ryoko and Ayeka realize that they're the only ones not in the room they run to the door but are teleported outside into the lake. Tenchi wondering what the noise was goes to the door but nobody's there. Washu, glancing out the window says, "Two fools who forgot to knock." As everyone is dozing off a strange sound is heard. It's Mihoshi returning from Headquarters. Mihoshi...being Mihoshi crashes into Tenchi's house, destroying it.

The next day all that's left is Washu's door. Inside the door everyone is sleeping in sleeping bags. Ayeka is awakened by Ryo-Ohki digging up her tree again. When she goes over to stop her she finds out that she was talking to her tree.
