Summary
The second episode of the SuperS season follows Reika Nishimura, torn by an offer to study overseas that she is reluctant to accept because of her feelings for Motoki Furuhata. Her hesitation makes her a fitting mark for Tiger's Eye, who chooses her as the next dreamer whose mirror he intends to probe for Pegasus.

Notes
An animation slip leaves Reika wearing makeup during the confession scene when she should not yet have it on, and a storefront sign misspells "Parlor" as "Palor." In the Latin Spanish and English versions Sailor Mars blurts out Sailor Moon's civilian name, Serena, in front of Tiger's Eye. This marked the last appearance of the extended Sailor Chibi Moon transformation.
