Episode Title:
Ignorance Is Bliss.
Episode Description:
As Kotetsu tries to work up the courage to announce he is retiring, Barnaby goes to see Kriem, who has awakened from a coma she was in since the Jake incident. She talks about how Jake saved her when she was ostracized by her friends and family for being a NEXT. Before committing suicide, she reveals that Jake was not the one who killed Barnaby's parents, as he was with her on the day they were killed. Barnaby goes into denial, saying he remembers his parents' death clearly, but some video research shows discrepancies between reality and Barnaby's memory. Upon this revelation, Barnaby's memory of the murderer's face keeps changing and he starts to doubt if he should continue being a hero, giving Kotetsu no room to tell him about his own intention to quit. Meanwhile, Kaede is trying to deal with her emerging NEXT power, the ability to copy the power of any NEXT she has touched, not realizing her father is a NEXT despite this revelation.
