Summary[]
Members of the Prince Yuki Fan Club do some scheming and visit Saki Hanajima's house.
Plot[]
Members of Yuki's fan club, as well as Motoko Minagawa, are plotting to separate Tohru from Yuki. Saki is also involved and after school at her house they attempt to discover any weaknesses.
They decide to look for clues in Saki's room before coming across her younger brother, Megumi Hanajima. Saki helps alleviate the tension having figured out the trio's true motives.
To assist them in leaving, Megumi mentions their names which causes them to run since Saki announced this was a way to curse them. After, Saki does feel jealous since Tohru is spending more time with members of the Sohma family. Arisa and Tohru herself help restore her happiness.
By morning, Motoko has had a nightmare involving Saki and Megumi. The curse also takes three days to take effect.
