Upset at not being able to drop in on Tenchi whenever they want, Ryoko and Ayeka persuade Washu to set a network of video relays so that they can keep an eye on him! But when a demon reprograms the network to give misleading images, the girls get confused. Could Tenchi really be on top of a cliff with a hippo and a cow? Or, worse yet, could he be off having fun with his ‘true love'?

Needless to say, Ryoko and Ayeka are not happy to see Tenchi getting so close to another girl, but when Sakuya enlists the help of the Love Knot Goddess to strengthen her relationship with Tenchi, they may not have any choice in the matter…
