Psychic Squad - S01E21: Jack-of-All-Trades And Master Of None! Why Was He Angry!?

Kyōsuke interrupts Momotarō's revelry of eating seeds under the full moon and reflecting on Kaoru's kindness to advise of a rendezvous engagement at which he is given information regarding the B.A.B.E.L. Special Espers and ancillary personnel. Unfortunately, the ill-gotten intelligence does not include information on Oboro Kashiwagi who is busy pacifying a group of government officials frustrated at the massive expenditures B.A.B.E.L. is incurring from its work with some herbal tea. As he resolves to learning about Kashiwagi's private life, Takashi Kugutsu's evacuation is precluded by Kaoru who blackmails him into constructing a life-sized doll of Kashiwagi before lusting after the original article. Kashiwagi sternly reprimands Kaoru for her criminal voyeurism before approaching Minamoto for help in illuminating the voyeur. Unfortunately, Minamoto's investigation has the downside of being easily detected and it is not long before Taizō bellows his ethical perspective. As a circus confrontation of a man taking a pig hostage proves to be a waste of time, Kugutsu bumps into Ran (who he has had a crush on because she acknowledges his existence) while Minamoto has Shiho psychometrically excavate Kaoru's mind to explain the whole story. Unfortunately, the ensuing conflagration does nothing to address Kaoru's extortion/blackmail nor the fact that the life-size Kashiwagi doll was for Kaoru's lecherous purposes. Kashiwagi destroying the doll (even while touched by the sentiment),Dr. Sakaki leaving on a date with Ran, and the collective dysphoric illumination/contempt of B.A.B.E.L. ultimately sows the seeds for Kugutsu to become an inimical mad genius.
