Connecting Hearts: Chibi-Usa and Pegasus

Tiger's Eye sets his sights on Morino, the art teacher Chibiusa admires, gambling that putting her in peril will draw Pegasus out to protect her. Once the winged horse appears, Tiger's Eye orders his Lemures to slip inside him and uncover the identity of the dreamer he calls home.

The plot brings out the Lemures Hebihanabiko as the featured foe, and the relic known as the Stallion Reve makes its first appearance here, giving Pegasus a means to reach Chibiusa. His plan to track the horse back to its owner ultimately fails to expose her secret.

Written by Yoji Enokido and directed by Noriyo Sasaki, the episode first aired in Japan on May 20, 1995, and later reached North America on October 5, 2000, as "A Teacher's Lesson" in the CWi dub. The Stallion Reve did not exist in the manga, where Pegasus instead spoke to Chibiusa by appearing in a smaller form ringed by pure light. Early on, Chibiusa dresses in a beret and round glasses styled after the famed manga artist Osamu Tezuka. A brief shot near the close shows her momentarily bare, making Pegasus blush, a moment left intact in the edited television dub yet trimmed for the edited VHS release.
