Overview
Rico assumes the worst of Ian trying to recruit Mikasa.
Summary
Ian points out a training Mikasa to Mitabi. The two begin cheering Mikasa on, commenting on how thrilled they are watching her. Overhearing their comments, Rico assumes that they are peering at something they shouldn't. Charging in, Rico furiously demands that they explain what they are looking at. Mikasa flies between Rico and the others, using her ODM gear. Ian asks Rico why she's interested in them looking at training exercises. Rico hangs her head in shame and doesn't reply.
Ian wishes that Mikasa would join the Garrison Regiment, but Mitabi reminds him that the best students typically join the Military Police. Ian announces that he's going to ask her himself and leaves. Soon after, Rico asks Mitabi where Ian is. Joking, Mitabi states that Ian left to sweet talk Mikasa, because he's smitten with her. Rico takes the joke seriously.
Nanaba and Gelgar are trying to recruit cadets for the Survey Corps. They approach a cadet and convince him to enter the recruiting tent. Inside, the potential recruit faces Levi, who specifies that he is only going to explain the information once. Intimidated, the recruit flees the tent. Nanaba is displeased with the cadet, but Gelgar sympathizes with his fear of Levi.
A cadet asks Krista on a date, but she refuses his offer. Nearby, Ian attempts to get Mikasa to listen to his offer to join the Garrison, but Mikasa keeps refusing. When she mentions Eren, Ian says that her boyfriend is welcome to join as well, causing Mikasa to clarify Eren to be family. Krista notices the debate between Ian and Mikasa. Later, Krista beams silently beside Mikasa, prompting Mikasa to ask her what she's doing. Krista says that she was thinking of how similar they are, mistakenly believing Mikasa had turned Ian down for a date.
Mike tells Levi that he's taking over the recruitment tent. Levi is disappointed that nobody gave him the chance to speak. Nanaba and Gelgar discuss how replacing Levi will help put potential recruits at ease, as Mina enters the recruitment tent. Seconds later, Mina rushes screaming outside of the tent. Enraged, she demands to know why Mike smelled her. Nanaba tries to defuse the tense situation.
Standing at his window's office, Commander Pixis uses a telescope. His words are suspicious, prompting Anka to demand that he cease peeping. Agitated, Pixis points his finger at Mikasa and says that he was observing her. Mikasa is standing below in the street alongside Eren, Armin, and Commandant Shadis. Apologizing, Anka begins to study Mikasa, admiring her dexterity. Pixis agrees, but Anka notices that his telescope isn't pointed at Mikasa, proving her initial suspicions correct. Anka swings it in Mikasa's direction, causing Pixis to complain that he missed the best part.
Rico asks Ian how Mikasa took his offer, still believing that Ian's intentions were romance related. Ian describes how Mikasa's love for her boyfriend prevents her from leaving him. Pleased to hear that Mikasa is in a relationship, Rico says that nothing can be done. She offers to buy Ian a drink, which Ian gratefully accepts. Rico then says they can discuss her past romantic partners to cheer him up. Ian is shocked and confused as to why Rico would say that.
