As soon as Genzo is told that the wrestling promotion company he owns, Animal Mask Productions is losing money, he decides to take drastic measures to restore its finances. Meanwhile, Misha and Carmilla, along with Genzo's former student, Martha, tag along to find a way home after losing their money in a scam. But their search for an affordable way home leads them to an investment fraud scheme that Genzo promptly crashes. When his plan falls apart and he's unable to earn back the lost money, Genzo realizes that he will have to issue bonds to stay afloat.
The episode progresses with the Animal Mask Productions team attempting to create a bond issuance event to gather funds. Despite their efforts, the team is plagued with setbacks, leading Genzo to evaluate his leadership style. His assistant, the dog named Shigure, shares her thoughts on his qualities, leading Genzo to reflect on how much he has changed since arriving in this world.
The team soon receives a lead on a potential investor named Kojiro, who happens to be a fan of Genzo's previous persona as the wrestler, Animal Mask. Despite this potential partnership, Genzo remains distrustful of individuals benefiting from his fame. However, he reluctantly goes ahead with the meeting, with the hope of securing funding for his company.
Kojiro shows up, and the meeting begins, with Genzo pitching his company and imploring Kojiro to invest in it. Kojiro, who is actually a huge animal lover, expresses his admiration for Genzo and is impressed by his production company's unique concept. Kojiro agrees to become a shareholder and purchases an Animal Mask plush on the spot to support Genzo- this prompts multiple other fans to follow suit, in a positive turn of events for the company. With the help of his new investor, Genzo is able to launch new merchandise and create an exclusive fan club.
The episode concludes with Genzo reflecting on the great progress that he has made prior to seeing a news broadcast announcing the devastation left by Behemoth, the demon king's pet.
