Tomoko Kuroki is a socially-awkward high school student who struggles with making friends and being accepted by her classmates. In this episode, Tomoko attempts to improve her social standing by pretending to be more outgoing and popular than she really is. She starts by dressing up in more stylish clothing and putting on makeup, but quickly learns that appearance alone is not enough to win over her classmates.

As the episode progresses, Tomoko begins to mimic the behavior of more popular students in her school in an attempt to fit in. She tries to be bubbly and cheerful like one of her classmates, but ends up coming across as fake and insincere. She also attempts to be more assertive and confident, but her awkwardness and self-doubt get in the way.

Despite her efforts, Tomoko's popularity does not increase and she starts to feel disillusioned. She realizes that she cannot change who she is and that she will never be able to fit in with the popular crowd. However, she also learns that there are people who accept her for who she is and that she does not need to pretend to be someone else to be liked.

Throughout the episode, Tomoko's inner thoughts and feelings are narrated, giving viewers a glimpse into her inner world and the struggles she faces on a daily basis. Despite her flaws and insecurities, she remains a relatable and sympathetic character, making this episode a thought-provoking and powerful exploration of the challenges faced by many high school students.
