After a trip to Wiz's shop, the gang encounters Megumin's self-proclaimed rival, Yunyun. Annoyed at the group's increased level of obnoxiousness with a new member added, Kazuma notices a choker at his feet. After trying it on casually, he realizes he's in trouble: it's actually a "Wish-Granting Choker" which won't come off until the wearer's wish is granted, on top of gradually strangling them over time. The party tries everything they can think of to grant Kazuma's wish: Wiz lets him lay his head in her lap, Darkness does push-ups while her chest sways, and Megumin and Yunyun play strip rock-paper-scissors while Aqua runs errands and serves drinks. But in spite of it all, the choker shows no sign of coming off.
