Summary
Having obtained their Starlight School uniforms, Nono and Lisa change into them. Lisa reminds Nono that they need to take their Aikatsu seriously and they get a call from Orihime. They received a job offer for the Urban Girls Collection; much to thier excitement as Nono brings up a program she and Lisa like that involves it. She incidentally embarrasses Lisa while recalling the memory of their enthrollment for it, unaware of her anxiousness. Orihime informs them that besides being included in the fashion show, they are to put on a performance. Right away, the girls decide they need to figure out how to get the Dolly Devil Premium Rare dresses.

Madoka, Juri, and Rin call Luminas while they pass through Kyushu. Heading to Okinawa, they will need to board a ferry soon. They are joined by Nono and Lisa and the trio ask how they are doing, then they go on to bring up their own offer. Lisa complains that it seems like too much to take in due to how quickly everything has been going. Luminas seem to understand her feelings though, with Hinaki mentioning that in the past as a fledgling idol they were likely to grab whatever they could get their hands on. The trio share a laugh as Akari claims nothing has really changed, and they announce their plans to cheer the girls on. With that, they hang up, leaving Nono and Lisa with the other three.

Rin then brings up their plans about what coord they want to wear, and the trio express interest to know which brand they settled on. Juri describes the brand, while Madoka looks up information about Lucy Kisaragi from a magazine. She is noted for being a bit strange, provided in the magazine is a small amount of information, saying that she values creative spark above all else and is described as the embodiment of freedom. Madoka continues on to describe what she has learned about Dolly Devil, including its focus on the glimmer of cuteness found behind a veil of maturity. Lisa expresses her plan of obtaining the Premium Rare coords, explaining that she took interest in the brand because she felt as though she had changed after wearing a set for their Auditions.

Madoka comments that Lisa is normally composed, but when she becomes passionate about something she seems to be more expressive, and Nono states that it is because of her that they were able to start their Aikatsu to begin with, then agrees with her about gaining the Premium Rare. The trio inform them that if they really want it, they need to ask the Top Designer herself. Juri flips the pages in the magazine and shows them the building where Dolly Devil is located, a Plaza in town. Rin and Madoka offer to show them the way and mention how easy it can be to get lost there. Lisa thinks it over, but decides they should go on their own. Nono agrees, so the girls wish them luck before they head out.

Meanwhile, at the building a woman runs into the room where Lucy resides to let her know she's been taking too long. She's surprised discovering Lucy has vanished and reacts accordingly, with two women running into the room and knocking her over unaware of what happened. One tells the women to hurry up and try to locate her, then comments that Lucy must be off in search of inspiration.

In town, Nono and Lisa observe the area and remark on how crowded it is. Lisa is a bit concerned over getting lost, but as soon as she looks away, she notices that Nono has already began to wonder off. She scolds her for not being more careful, and to her horror she realizes they were seperated by a big crowd. As she attempts to catch up to her, she accidentally runs into an adult man and quickly apologizes, but this causes them further seperation when she's able to cross the path Nono was walking by. Lisa heads to a secluded area and tries to call her, and Nono lets her know of a crepe shop she found. Lisa tells her not to leave and hangs up, then she tries using a map for help- until she finds out there are several crepe shops.

Nono is about to eat a crepe when Lisa calls her to inform her of this and asks if there are landmarks in the area. As Nono tries looking she accidentally runs into a woman. For a moment she is stunned, then screams in alarm upon realizing the cream from her crepe has stained the woman's coat. Lisa starts to panic when Nono hangs up on her. Feverishly Nono apologizes to the woman, but she assures her its alright because she is as just much fault, due to spacing out. Nono looks around and notices a fountain located next to a children playground before impulsively grabbing the woman's hand and leading her there to help her get cleaned. The woman is a bit surprised at first.

Lisa continues to wander around in search of her friend. But she finds herself overwhelmed and thinks about how easier things were back in Hokkaido. They knew the town like the back of their hands, and everyone knew everyone else. Suddenly, Nono calls her and apologizes for hanging up, and she tries to figure out where she is, locating the Omohara Park sign and informing her before hanging up again. Lisa looks up the location but struggles after her phone refuses to work. She approaches a bunch of people and starts to ask them where Omohara Park is, and she rushes over after a nearby worker is able to help her.

With the stain mostly gone, the woman takes her jacket back from Nono. She expresses gratitude before Nono explains that she got separated from her friend. She comments that it wasn't like this back at home, and mentions that she used to live in Hokkaido. Everyone knew each other, and seemed to be much more formal because of it. Here, she finds everyone to be overwhelming.

Just then, Lisa arrives and Nono embraces her as the woman approaches them. Nono introduces them to one-another and the woman asks why they are out there, expressing surprise after they bring up their desire to speak to the top designer of Dolly Devil, as they wished to obtain the Premium Dresses for a Concert. Lisa comments that while it was really exciting, it was also hard at first to gain the courage to even take this step. But with each other they feel they can accomplish everything, and they express how much each other means to them. The woman is move by their words and she prepares to leave, saying goobye to them. Lisa decides that in order to ensure they don't get separated again, she holds Nono's hand.

In the Cafeteria, Rin, Juri, and Madoka have received a confirmation from the duo to inform them that they have arrived to the Plaza. This relieves them as Madoka reads the message, going on to explain what happened.

After the girls head into the building, a woman approaches them to thank Nono and Lisa for helping "her". They express confusion, as they have no idea who she is speaking of until they head into the office and realize the woman Nono ran into earlier was Lucy. As Nono starts to panic, Lisa asks what she had been doing out in town. Lucy explains that she has a tendency to hit the town in disguise in search of an unexpected happening; which makes them recall what Maoka read earlier. They quickly ask her for a pair of Premium Dresses, and Lucy agrees after saying they inspired her.

Later, the five girls get together and chat about what happened while in the waiting area. They comment that never before has two Premium Dresses been made before at the same time for a brand, and Nono shows them the letter they got from her. In it, Lucy brings up some key notes of inspiration for the outfits, like Nono's scrunchies and the ribbon worn by Lisa. She wishes them luck for the concert and the girls take a moment to observe and compliment the coord. With that, Nono and Lisa head to the changing area and share a few words before they change and perform "Lucky Train".

Afterwards the girls are contacted by Luminas, who compliment their performance. The duo thank them and they hang up after promising to talk more later. More excited than before, Nono and Lisa remark on this event and watch as the sun setss in the distance.
