As the episode begins, the members of The Guild are faced with mounting pressures and responsibilities outside of the game.

Meanwhile, Clara, the self-proclaimed "domestic goddess" of the guild, faces her own set of focus problems. Juggling her familial responsibilities with her commitment to the game proves to be a challenge.
