Summary
As the students from Class 4 reflect on what happened during the overnight trip, Eren muses over how he was not able to get Mr. Smith to quit. As he remarks the club will now be less exciting than before, his classmates remark they should be the ones saying that due to how similar Eren and Mr. Smith are about Titans.

A summer festival is announced at the school. Reiner reveals to Bertolt that he is planning on inviting Krista and Bertolt should come along too as a precaution. When asked, Krista says yes but insists that Ymir go with them as well; Reiner agrees, remarking that Bertolt could escort Ymir. The latter coldly remarks she will be escorting Krista along with Reiner and Bertolt will have to find another girl. Later on, Ymir confronts Bertolt and reveals she believes Bertolt likes Annie. He becomes flustered and tries to deny it, but Ymir orders Bertolt to ask her out or she will tell Annie about his crush on her; Bertolt nervously agrees to. After class that day, Annie goes to Bertolt and asks what he wanted to ask her about. He begins to side-step around the question and eventually reveals he is going to the summer festival with Reiner, Krista and Ymir and was curious if Annie was planning on going with him. As Bertolt goes on, he notices Annie's attention is elsewhere; noticing that she is looking down where Eren is, Bertolt sheepishly remarks that he would not mind if Annie brought someone with her. Annie thinks it over and agrees to go. Ymir, who was spying from a distance away, smirks and remarks she almost feels sorry for Bertolt.
