Bound by an "Interstellar Dream Romance System," the narrator plans to return to the Central Star once the heroine appears. The system unlocks romance targets and a shop; earning points requires raising targets' Affection Levels or unlocking bond events. On a mission, someone kneels, fearing the Alliance will strip their Commander title. The narrator spares punishment to boost Affection, but that choice unexpectedly lowers the Affection Level. Alarms show his Out-of-Control Level surging, and he goes berserk. The episode ends with alarms blaring and the narrator confronting an uncontrolled man, forced to decide how to stop him.
