Koan and Berthier are over at the Hikawa Shrine, raking leaves and cooking sweet potatoes with the Inner Senshi and Chibiusa. Berthier comments that it is nice to have friends, since the two of them didn’t have any before. Chibiusa begins to eat a potato, and Usagi asks if she could have half. When Chibiusa eats the whole potato, Usagi gets angry and begins to chase her.

Petz and Calaveras watch their newly healed sisters from the UFO. Rubeus soon arrives, and gives Petz a rod that will increase their power. Rubeus then gives the remaining sisters an ultimatum: kill the Sailor Senshi, the "rabbit", and the two sisters, or they will not be allowed to return.

At the Hikawa Shrine, Usagi begins to pig out on sweet potatoes. Makoto comments that Usagi will get fat from eating so much, and Rei suggests that Mamoru rejected Usagi because she was like that. A bright light shines in the sky, and some light beams shoot at Chibiusa. Koan pushes Chibiusa out of the way, but gets captured in the process, along with Berthier.

Usagi moves Chibiusa to the closet and tells her to stay. Chibiusa runs to a window, where she sees Usagi and her friends transform into the Sailor Senshi, unknowingly revealing their secret identities to Chibiusa. Sailor Mercury uses her computer to locate the evil energy and the Senshi run off. Chibiusa chases after them.

Koan and Berthier are trapped by Petz and Calaveras in a ball of energy, near a bridge that is under construction. Calaveras asks Petz if she could touch the rod, but Petz refuses, as she is enjoying her newfound power. Koan and Berthier try to reason with Petz, asking her and Calaveras to quit fighting the Sailor Senshi, but Petz disagrees with them.

The Sailor Senshi arrive and Petz immediately begins using her power. Petz deflects Sailor Jupiter’s Sparkling Wide Pressure attack and blasts her back. Mercury uses her computer to find out that Petz is powered up from the rod. Sailor Venus and Sailor Mars use their attacks, but Petz is able to defend herself from them, and she blasts the Senshi back with her Dark Thunder. Koan and Berthier plead with Petz not to hurt the Sailor Senshi, but Petz refuses to listen. Petz then blasts Koan and Berthier along with Calaveras. Berthier and Koan fall from the energy ball, but Sailor Jupiter and Sailor Mars catch them. Sailor Moon goes up to Calaveras and asks if she is all right. Calaveras is shocked to find out that Sailor Moon cares about her.

Petz begins to prepare for another attack. Sailor Mercury uses her Sabão Spray to create a fog, then Sailor Venus uses her Venus Love-Me Chain attack to knock the rod out of Petz’s hand. Sailor Jupiter then blasts Petz. The other three Ayakashi Sisters gather around Petz, then Rubeus appears. Rubeus states that he hadn't expected the Black Moon sisters to beat the Sailor Senshi, but he will use the power of the rod so that everyone will die together.

The rod creates a hole to another dimension. Petz tries to use her remaining power, but she almost gets sucked into the hole. The other three sisters then rescue Petz. After a brief appearance by Tuxedo Mask, Sailor Moon suggests that the Senshi go into the hole to destroy the rod. The Sailor Senshi jump into the hole, find the rod, and then use the Sailor Planet Power to destroy it.

After the dimension hole closes, Sailor Moon uses the Silver Crystal to turn Petz and Calaveras into humans. Chibiusa shows up and watches the transformation, discovering the Silver Crystal in the process. Back in the UFO, Rubeus is furious over the defeat by the Sailor Senshi and punches one of his mirrors.

The next day, the four sisters open up a cosmetics shop together. Petz begins to get upset at Berthier, who is trying on the makeup. Usagi and Rei then begin to squabble with each other, much to the dismay of the other three Senshi.
