The Natural Gift! Gift of Children
While Hotaru and Natsuko keep order with the queued children outside the exam room, Dr. Sakaki conducts appraisals of ESP aptitude and discovers a third-grader named Takashi Kawamura that has significant ESP aptitude. Minamoto summons the girls to charge them surveillance thereof. Fortunately, in spite of basically waylaying him, Kaoru and her teammates quickly befriend Takashi as they demonstrate their respective powers and explain that ESP is nothing bad or shameful. There is little that can go awry as Takashi is in seventh heaven with Kaoru and her teammates warmly accepting him as is . . . except for the sudden arrival of Takashi's father Tekeno who has written his antipathy for espers into a book. His psychic powers now active in earnest, Takashi rushes off to settle the score with a bully. Once Aoi successfully locates him, it is a simple matter to phase in upon Takashi with an austere reproof and an emphatic injunction against abusing and misusing his powers. What drives this lesson home, however, is a terrorist attack by The Normal People who show their anger at Aoi frenzily teleporting the people to safety by driving several tanker trucks loaded with fuel into the congregation. The deus ex machina consists of the triple punch of Minamoto confronting Tekeno at the news station, Takashi psychokinetically immobilizing the bridge while Aoi phases out the casualties and Kaoru sweeps the bridge clear, and Dr. Sakaki wielding a squad of B.A.B.E.L. agents to confront the masterminds. The euphoric epilogue is enhanced even more when Tekeno sees the light and demonstrates that the love for his son is greater than his ignorance regarding espers having realized that it is the virtue or vice within the heart that determines whether ESP is wielded constructively or destructively.

The Floor is a physical quiz show that sees 81 contestants face off in quiz duels on a giant LED floor divided into a 9×9 grid of squares, each representing its own field of knowledge.

The first challenger, selected at random, must choose one of his or her neighboring opponents to go head-to-head in an epic quiz duel in the opponent's category. The winner takes over the loser's square, gaining valuable ground as they expand their territory, while the loser exits the game. The winner must then choose – do they continue on and attempt to secure another square? Or do they let The Floor choose a new challenger? The last contestant standing who gains full control over The Floor takes home a life-changing $250,000 cash prize.
