During lunch time Nagisa starts the “Ideas on how to bring in more members to the swim club” 'conference' atop the Iwatobi High School and suggests that new members should receive an Iwatobi-chan changed from the 'Novel version' to 'Swimsuit version', but Makoto doesn't think that that's a good idea.

Rei is worried as he does not have a swimming suit except for the one he had when he was in elementary school. Just as he was worrying, Nagisa came in showing him a bunch of swimming suits and asking him to choose one as he had to take responsibility due to what he said before Rei joined the club. However, Rei cannot make up his mind, thus, Nagisa calls Makoto and Haruka to give advice. In the end, Rei chooses a speedo due to what Makoto had said.
