Gokinjo Monogatari

Episode 14

The ordinary conclusion of another class session becomes extraordinary when P-chan cries out that her stuffed rabbit Petite Francoise is missing. The other Akindo members are not thrilled that Mikako has summoned them for such a petty purpose; a detailed explanation of Petite Francoise's origins and its collaborative prologue with P-chan later, the other Akindo members decide to participate in the search. Risa and Jiro forced to drop out because of work while Mariko entreats a motorcycle ride from Yuusuke, Mikako suggests that she and Tsutomu continue the search while prosecuting their home commute during which P-chan recalls that she was trying to beat the pedestrian signal that morning and probably lost Petite Francoise in the attempt; during a recess to regroup, P-chan shares her prologue and explains that the Petite Francoise she lost is the first one she has made on her own using her grandmother's instruction. Mikako resumes the search with P-chan the next day only to have some hilarious and humiliating adventures to show for her efforts; the deus ex machina is Tsutomu finding that a kindergartner named Yukari has discovered Petite Francoise; seeing the parallels between Yukari and herself as a child, P-chan ultimately decides to pay forward her grandmother's legacy and make another Petite Francoise for herself.
