Kagura: I... I wasn't able to tell what language he spoke.
Yukari: Well, now, if you'd pay better attention in my class, you could identify and speak with people better.
Kagura: What would you have done?
Yukari: Well, ah, the perfect target. Watch this!
Kagura: Oh, no way!
Kagura: Hey!
Yukari: It's no good! He's German!
Kagura: Huh? So, you're just gonna run away?!
Kagura: So, that's basically what happened yesterday. It was pretty rough.
Tomo: Hey, your story reminded me of something.
Kagura: Oh, yeah, what is that?
Tomo: Just how very stupid you are, Kagura.
Kagura: Excuse me!
Sakaki: Huh?
Tomo: I didn't know your conversation skill was so lame. I guess your big chest gets in the way.
Kagura: My chest has nothing to do with it! Bit, you could perform under pressure?
Tomo: Better than you did.
Kagura: Uh-huh, Then, how about if I quiz you!
Tomo: Sure, ask me anything.
Kagura: What's "I.T." stand for?
Kagura: Don't look the other way!
Tomo: It's... it's that thingy. It's... like e-mail and... homepages and stuff.
Kagura: Look, I get the general idea. So, tell me what "I.T." stands for?!
Tomo: Don't worry about it.
Kagura: See?! You can't answer!
Tomo: So... so does that mean that you know the answer?
Kagura: I'm asking you because I don't know!
Tomo: Yomi! You tell her what it stands for!
Yomi: Eh...
Yomi: In... in...
Kagura, Tomo: In...?!
Yomi: Interne... um... Internet technique...
Kagura, Tomo: Ooh, I'm convinced.
Yomi: Really?
Chiyo: "I.T." is actually short for "Information Technology". In Japanese, that phrase would be translated as "jouhou gijutsu". But, I don't know if asking about "IT" is such a good test for judging your communication skills.
Kagura: Um...
Chiyo: Yes?
Kagura: Where do you learn about things like that?
Chiyo: Huh? Um, well... Where... what do you...
11-2. Showdown
Kagura: Morning, Sakaki!
Sakaki: Mm.
Kagura: So, what I want most right now out of anything is a mountain bike, you know. But I'm having a lot of trouble picking out what kind of color and all that stuff. What is it?
Sakaki: It's blooming.
Kagura: Flowers? Oh, it's a hibiscus.
Sakaki: Pomegranate.
Kagura: Man, I totally don't know anything about flowers. Sunflowers, morning glories, and that's all.
I know, lilies!
Sakaki: No, gardenias.
Kagura: Oh, violets!
Sakaki: Azaleas.
Kagura: Oh, well, who cares about flowers? So, anyways, back to that mountain bike. Huh?
Sakaki: Hm?
Kagura: Just now, was that... a contest?!
Sakaki: What?
Kagura: A contest for guessing the names of flowers.
Sakaki: No.
Kagura: All right.
Kagura: So, there are a couple of colors I'm leaning toward right now...
Sakaki: Yeah?
Kagura: Hey, Sakaki! Let's compete! Let's have a competition! This time, the event would be speed-eating lunch.
Sakaki: Huh?

Tomo: Hm... A sign for skipping breakfast. But that's a given. Eh?
Kagura: Man, this one's really nice. Oh, ooh, this one's nice too.
Sakaki: Ah...
Kagura: I saved up my New Year's allowance and I've done quite a few part time jobs, so I do have the money. But it's just that... when it comes down to the buying, decisions are hard to make. Like color and the shape of it. The ones I think look nice are expensive. But I couldn't see myself getting the cheap one.
NecoKoneco:
Meow.
Sakaki: Just what are you doing?
Kagura: What? Oh, this?
Hmm... nothing. I just felt like it. Although, doesn't it look pretty cool? Oh, I know. I'll make this part more like... this!
Sakaki: It's that cat.
Sakaki: Ahhhh!
Kagura: Hey you! You shouldn't bite people!
Kagura: Hey, are you okay?
Sakaki: Huh? Yeah...
