Overview

Connie wants a beard so badly that he annoys Reiner when he's shaving.

Summary

Reiner is about to begin shaving when Connie interrupts him. Connie is enthusiastic that Reiner already has facial hair and discouraged that he cannot grow a beard himself. Reiner sarcastically tells Connie to stand aside so that Connie will not be injured. Connie begs Reiner to let him watch, but Reiner orders Connie out of the bathroom. When Reiner is about to begin shaving, he notices Connie peering at him through the ajar door. Reiner angrily throws Connie out, shouting that he does not want to be injured by laughing at Connie's face. The two boys pass a stunned Krista in the hallway.

Connie shows Eren a fake mustache that he drew upon himself with ink. Eren laughs at the unrealistic color choice, provoking Connie. Connie demands that Eren try. Eren draws a beard in the same style of his father, which Connie ridicules. Armin interrupts, warning them that the lecture is about to begin. The lecturer jokes about the fake beards, to which Connie asserts that Eren and he made fools of themselves. Eren yells at Connie to shut up.

Outside, Petra notices that Eld shaved his goatee. Eld states that he is trying an image change, to which Gunter mentions that it is like they are all recruits again. Petra says that Eld looks younger. Petra notices that Oluo has a beard, and Oluo claims that he is also trying an image change. Gunter doubts that it changed anything, and Petra says that Oluo always looks older. These comments anger Oluo.

Mina compliments Pixis on his mustache, causing him to converse about the meaning of his mustache. Anka interrupts his monologue, demanding that he stop wasting time and get to work. Disappointed, Pixis says that Anka has no appreciation for the greatness of his mustache, compelling Anka to order him to stop playing around. Pixis reluctantly agrees.

Reiner offers to teach an excited Connie how to use a razor. Reiner warns Connie not to make him laugh, and Connie agrees to remain serious. Connie's serious face is too much for Reiner, causing him to burst into laughter. Reiner says that they are not going to continue, causing Connie to question whether Reiner will always laugh at his face.

Anka finds Pixis grooming his mustache again. Anka urges Pixis to get to work immediately, to which Pixis denies that he is playing with his mustache. Anka points out that he is doing so, to which Pixis claims that it is nose hair. Unamused, Anka demands that he get back to work. Pixis laments the loss of love for humor.

Alone, Connie begins shaving. Although jittery, he manages to shave without injury. Gleeful, Connie announces to himself in the mirror that he succeeded. Connie brags to Eren about his accomplishment. Eren excitedly claims that Connie is now an adult. Emboldened by the compliment, Connie offers to teach Eren how to shave.
