A police vehicle is passing by, causing Haimawari to warn Pop Step. Pop Step decides to end her live performance, and flies away while Haimawari prepares to slide to his place of work. Kouichi works at a convenience store; the manage isn't pleased with Kouichi being late and deducts his pay. Customers arrive, however, it is the same group of thugs that Kouichi encountered earlier on. The leader of the thugs becomes angry at seeing Haimawari again and takes him outside.

With his good deeds done for the day, Kouichi begins walking home. Suddenly, a person gives Kouichi juice to drink. The person giving him the juice is Pop Step. Pop Step thanks Haimawari for warning her about the Police and followed him in order to properly thank him, but mocks Kouichi for being weak, to which Kouichi defends himself as being poor at dealing with violence.

Pop Step finds it ironic that Kouichi is wearing an All Might hoodie, but is bad at fighting. Haimawari wears the All Might hoodie because it symbolizes his ideal in being useful in his own way. After they scrutinize each other for their objectives, Pop Step begins leaving but bumps into the same thug leader Kouichi got beaten up by. The thugs recognize her as the online idol and begin mocking her. Haimawari tries to stop them, but the thugs ignore him. Kouichi sees tears in Pop Step's eyes and cannot ignore her plea for help. Kouichi theoretically wonders how he can handle the situation; use his Sliding Quirk to trip two of the thugs and take out the leader by tackling him so that Pop Step can fly away.

Kouichi decides to put his plan into motion. Kouichi uses his sliding Quirk and tries tripping one of the thugs over, but fails. The thug throws Kouichi to the ground. The thugs turn their attention to Kouichi and the leader scratches Haimawari's face with spikes from his foot. The thug leader decides to finish off Kouichi for annoying him and strip down Pop Step.

As the thug leader prepares to strike Kouichi with his spikes, someone crashes down onto the trash which stops the thug leader's attempted murder. The person gets up from the trash heap, revealing to be a muscular old man as the thug leader wonders what is going on. Suddenly, the old man punches the thug leader which knocks him down to the ground, surprising Kouichi. The other two thugs are shocked at what transpired and ask for the old man's motivations.

The old man tells the thugs that he is called Knuckleduster and specializes in dealing with hoodlums. Knuckeduster defeats the two thugs and checks their tongues as he is looking for a new dangerous type of drug. Knuckleduster turns his attention to Kouichi and praises him for his efforts, telling him that he can become a real Hero if he works with him. Kouichi shows no interest, but Knuckleduster can see through his lies and knows he is someone who can't abandon people in need like All Might. Kouichi admits that his Quirk isn't useful and could never pass the Pro Hero Exam. Knuckleduster doesn't care about whether Kouichi has a powerful Quirk or license because they have absolutely nothing to do with justice. Knuckleduster believes that true Heroes take action when something rises up before them. Kouichi realizes that Knuckleduster is unlicensed.

Suddenly, the thug leader gets up and takes Pop Step hostage. The thug leader threatens to claw Pop Step's face off with his spikes. Unable to let him get away with his atrocious act, Kouichi charges at the thug leader and knocks him down, allowing Pop Step to fly above for safety. Knuckleduster punches the thug leader into the wall which knocks him out. Knuckleduster sees that the thug leader isn't in procession of the new type of drug he is looking for and makes a copy of his ID.
