Shortly before the anticipated call Keiichi goes for a walk, during the course of which he encounters Hijiri, a young girl who has lost her purse. He goes out of his way to help her find it, before returning to his dormitory to take the expected call.

His wish is granted, but the dormitory in which Keiichi is living has a strict policy of not allowing any girls to be around, and so he is evicted.

However, the search for accommodation does not go well. Belldandy asks the holy spirit of Keiichi's money for help, and a strange gust of wind blows his single banknote, said to be his "entire fortune," into the air. It leads them to a Buddhist temple, where the priest, Koshian, after mistaking Keiichi for a thief, allows them to stay on the condition that they maintain the temple. Belldandy saves Keiichi by using her magic, an incident witnessed by Koshian and which inspires him to go on a pilgrimage, leaving the temple in their charge.

To protect the pair, Toraichi Tamiya and Otaki Aoyama modify the school records, inserting Belldandy into the system.

In spite of his conviction that an apartment meeting Megumi's specification will be impossible to find, Keiichi undertakes the task. After a fruitless day's search, Megumi reveals that she would be happy to lower her expectations, and that she had never intended to move into the temple. The following day, Belldandy casts a spell, which leads them to an apartment meeting everything on Megumi's wish list.

Toshiyuki takes Belldandy to a hotel room, where he attempts to take advantage of her, but Belldandy uses her magic to ward him off before collapsing with exhaustion.

Refusing to admit defeat, they narrowly succeed in rebuilding the car just in time for the start of the race.

Urd drives Keiichi in order to head off to find the CD in which Marller had been imprisoned, while Belldandy tracks down Marller and asks her to release Keiichi.

Belldandy and Sayoko have a dance off, after which Keiichi declares that he wishes to stay with Sayoko, suggesting that Belldandy should go home to rest.

Urd prepares an aphrodisiac, which Skuld sabotages by adding extra ingredients. Although the potion, created in the form of small sweets, was intended for Keiichi, Belldandy eats it instead and becomes far more outgoing. When Urd realizes what has happened, she reveals to Skuld that an antidote is possible, but it would take thirty hours to make and the potion will wear off in twenty-four hours, anyway. Keiichi finds it difficult to cope with Belldandy's new personality, but he agrees to take her out shopping. Skuld and Urd follow, trying to keep things under control, as Keiichi continues to be confused by Belldandy's behavior, unsure of how he should react.

Urd and Skuld are called back to heaven because of increasing problems with the Yggdrasil. However, Skuld leaves Keiichi a dessert, which changes him into a woman. Belldandy, while trying to prepare an antidote for Keiichi, is exposed to a virus from heaven and becomes ill. On Skuld's suggestion, Megumi, Sora, Toraichi, and Otaki pay a visit, forcing Keiichi to disguise himself until they leave, although Megumi sees through the act and assumes it must be to help Belldandy. In desperation Keiichi resorts to dialing wrong numbers in the hope of reaching the Goddess Helpline, but all to no avail. When Belldandy's angel, Holy Bell, emerges, with crystals marring her skin, Keiichi makes one more attempt to contact the Goddess Helpline and succeeds. Following Urd's instruction, Keiichi climbs the Tokyo Tower to catch wind crystals for the cure. On Skuld's advice, they jump from the tower, and are saved only by Banpei's efforts. Returning to the temple, Urd makes up the antidote, which Keiichi then administers to Belldandy via a kiss.

Skuld begins training in magic, so that she may have an angel just like Belldandy. However, she becomes frustrated by the amount of effort involved, and so tries to shortcut the process through science, building a device to amplify her powers. When she switches it on, it casts a high-level water spell, knocking Skuld unconscious and trapping her with Keiichi. Belldandy is unable to reach them, as her powers are insufficient. Only Urd is powerful enough, if she summons her angel, but she cannot, as she ordered it never to appear again because of its hybrid demon/goddess appearance. Finally Urd comes to terms with her angel, and summons it to save Skuld. The episode ends with a call from The Almighty One, who reveals that Urd's license has been suspended.

Marller finds and awakens the Lord of Terror, who has been sealed in an urn, to bring misery to the world. Urd, depressed over the loss of her goddess license, tries to cope by finding something to do with her life, but everything she tries only makes her feel worse. After the Lord of Terror offers her a chance to regain her powers by embracing her demonic side, he takes possession of her, and Urd announces that she is the Lord of Terror's rightful heir. Belldandy is thus given a choice, either to inform the Almighty One who may destroy Urd, or to try to save Urd by herself. Making things more difficult, Urd now possesses the Ultimate Destruction Program, and, unless the goddesses can stop her, she will destroy the world. When Urd arrives, accompanied by a giant robot, Belldandy, Skuld, and Keiichi engage her in battle. Although Urd is temporarily defeated thanks to their efforts, Marller ambushes them, sealing Keiichi away when he tries to protect Belldandy. Once Belldandy has recovered, she realizes that the only way she can defeat Urd is by removing her own "power limiter," thus unleashing her full strength.

Meanwhile, Urd starts to unleash the Ultimate Destruction Program by working through each level of protection. Belldandy finds her and attempts to destroy the urn in which the Lord of Terror was confined, inadvertedly removing the final layer of protection. This starts the destruction program and releases Fenrir. The Almighty One contacts Skuld and sends her the vaccine for the program, and Belldandy does battle with Urd once more. During the battle however, the Lord of Terror leaves Urd to possess Fenrir. Skuld arrives and Belldandy blows the flute of Midgard, being the cure for the Ultimate Destruction Program, thus summoning Midgard. The Lord of Terror is seemingly defeated, but at the last minute, he manages to take possession of Midgard.
24	"Ah! Always With You?" "Aa! Itsumo Kimi to Tomo ni?" (ああっいつもキミと共にっ?)	July 8, 2005

Confident that the Lord of Terror is gone, the three goddesses and Keiichi head back to the now destroyed temple, unaware that the Lord of Terror has taken possession of Keiichi. He takes the flute of Midgard and leaves Belldandy with the option of killing him or allowing the Earth to be destroyed. Furthermore, the Valkyrie Lind descends, with orders to kill the Lord of Terror and Keiichi in the process if necessary. Belldandy chooses to defend Keiichi, even at the cost of her own life. The Lord of Terror threatens to kill Keiichi in an attempt to force the goddesses to assist him in his aims, prompting Belldandy to offer herself in Keiichi's place. However, when the Lord of Terror discovers that he cannot possess a goddess, Skuld takes advantage of his weakness to force him into a floppy disc instead, which she wipes with a magnet, thus defeating him.
