Tae arrives home one Wednesday night...

Tae: Look everyone! We got a package!

Tasuki: Is it alcohol?

Tamahome: Is it money?

Tae: Tamahome and Tasuki no baka!! Tasuki, you know I don't drink! And Tamahome, who'd send me money?!

Kenshin, Tamahome and Tasuki gather around Tae.

Kenshin: Taihen! Tae-dono...

‹thud›

‹smack›

Tamahome's fist and and Tasuki's fan meet the back of Kenshin's head.

Tamahome & Tasuki: Tae-chan!!

Kenshin: Oroororo....where was I? Tae-dono (he ducks and Tamahome and Tasuki smack each other) get rid of that quick!!

Tae: Huh?

Kenshin: It's from the Shinsen Gumi! It could be a bomb or something!

Tae stares at Kenshin before bursting into laughter.

Kenshin: Oro?

Tae: These are videos of your TV show. Shinsen Gumi is the group that makes them.

Kenshin. Huh?

Tae: Yup. And these cover the Kyoto Saga!

Tamahome & Tasuki: Cool! Let's watch 'em.

Some time later.

Tasuki: SUGOI! Kenshin is SOOO cool. Too bad he couldn't help us fight Nakago.

Tamahome: Hey! I did all right! I won, didn't I!?!

Tasuki: Yeah, but you were half-dead by that time.

‹Insert Tamahome and Tasuki brawl.›

Suddenly a hyper-dimensional hammer wacks the two of them.

Tae (eyes glued to the screen, one finger on the REWIND button on the remote): Would you two be quiet? I'm trying to watch this here.

Kenshin: This is so embarrassing. Tae-dono (he ducks) wouldn't you like to watch some Fushigi Yuugi?

Tae: No. Be quiet. I'm busy here.

2:55 AM

Kenshin: Ano...don't you think you should get some sleep?

Tasuki and Tamahome are konked out on the floor.

Tae: Yes. But I don't want to!!! Well, I guess this is a good place to stop. The Aoi-ya is safe, and your fight with Soujiro hasn't started yet. Oyasumi nasai! Oh, remind me to get Tasuki to tell me again what happened to the grill on my deck.

Kenshin: Hai! Oyasumi nasai, Tae-dono.

Tasuki & Tamahome (drowsily): Oyasumi nasai, Tae-chan.

Tasuki (To Kenshin, after Tae's gone): You're not really going to remind her about the grill, are you?

Kenshin: Oro....
