Ai no noten saka otoshi; zenpen
(Falling Headfirst in Love - Part 1)
While watching TV one day, Shingo learns a backward suplex from an old movie and then tries it out on Mendo, when he tries to change the channel. Mendo angrily orders him to head to school and retrieve his forgotten English homework, which Shingo grudgingly does. There he runs into Ryunosuke who mistakes him for a robber. Neither one sees the other's face though, and Shingo uses his newly learned suplex technique on Ryu. In doing so he grabs her breasts and gets beaten up. While watching TV later, he sees a woman who's breasts are touched by a sumo wrestler say she will never become a wife. The sumo tells her he will marry her because it is his duty as a man. Shingo decides that after touching Ryunosuke he must hunt her down and marry her as well to repay her for grabbing her bosom. Unfortunately for him he never saw her face so he only has the scent of her hair to go on. With that he runs around town plucking young women's hair until he meets with Ryunosuke again. The two begin to battle again unaware of their prior meeting. Just then Shingo puts Ryu into his suplex again and realizes from the scent of her hair that she is his mystery woman.

(Falling Headfirst in Love - Part 2)
Shingo confesses to his grandfather that he feels he must marry Ryunosuke due to the bosom-grabbing incident. His grandfather gives him an antique hairpin that has been handed down through many generations. He tells Shingo that it will mark Ryunosuke has his legitimate wife should she accept it. Meanwhile Mendo apologizes profusely to Ryunosuke for the problems his manservant has caused her. Ryunosuke and Shingo run into each other again, and Shingo asks Mr. Fujinami for Ryu's hand in marriage. Of course Mr. Fujinami would not engage his "son" to another boy, so he refuses, but he does want Ryunosuke to take the hairpin so they can sell it for extra money. Shingo manages to pin Ryunosuke to a tree with his hairpins, but she refuses to accept it from him and become his betrothed. When Shingo touches her breasts again, she flies into a rage and beats him within an inch of his life. All bandaged up, Shingo admits that he touched her chest again and feels he still needs to marry her.

Soon everyone realizes it is cursed and it beings flying back and forth from classmate to classmate hot-potato style since no one wants to hold it when it hatches. Finally Ataru catches it just as it begins to crack and everyone watches in shock and awe as a snail emerges.
