Episode Title:
Moment of Earnest.
Episode Description:
Following Yusa's conspicuous transfer to Yuu's class, Nao brings her and the boys to their third task in Kannai Academy, where a student is believed to have telekinesis. Nao shows them footage of a baseball pitcher, Arifumi Fukuyama, who pitches knuckleballs with his ability instead of his grip. They confront Arifumi, who refuses to stop using his ability. Nao organizes a baseball match between the two academies' baseball teams, with the condition that Arifumi will stop using his ability if Hoshinoumi Academy wins. After eight innings, both teams are evenly scored. In the ninth inning, Yuu hits a few foul balls, and Misa runs from second base to home plate. Hoshinoumi subsequently wins against Kannai, two to one. Arifumi admits to using his ability only to help Takato, who is the catcher and his best friend, train to qualify for the national league. The others assure that Arifumi can still be of much help to Takato, and Arifumi agrees to stop using his ability.
