Dia was all fired up for the training plan Aqours was going to do over the Summer Break.
The bit of drama for the beach episode was that Riko had a piano competition on the same day as her group's prelim performance.
Dia knows what Summer Vacation means when you're in a School Idol group. Mari agrees.
Yohane knows Summer means a manga convention!
Dia says no! It's for training, hard training!
The other girls dread this prospect but Ruby seems happy just to see her big sister excited about idol stuff again.
We got to see the Kurosawa sisters in their original forms before Dia got bitter about School Idols.
You and Riko realized they liked Dia better when she was holding back her idol obsessed enthusiasm.
Dia had a crazy plan to get around Chika's scheduled work for her family inn.
They would train at the beach when they didn't have to work the beach shack!
Apparently, training meant playing all day at the beach.
Mari liked her "shiny" beach ball way too much for Chika's face, er taste.
Not surprisingly, Kanan is an avid surfer.
You is sneaky tease. She can't let Dia be the only one appreciating the adorable Ruby.
Chika wanted the others to play in the ocean too!
The girls live in a beach town, so of course they're going to spend time at the beach. Riko wore a nice cute pink swimsuit.
Some girls would rather enjoy the sand than the water. Others lamented the 4 AM training schedule start when nobody showed up...
Dia is irrepressible. The training went awry, but at least they can make the beach shack successful.
And then Dia saw the state of the beach shack.
Mari gave Dia a little pep talk about not losing to the flashy snack shack next door.
That flipped Dia's switch back to the ON position.
The rest of the girls didn't like what Mari had just done to their Summer Break plans.
Chika and Riko didn't know what good wearing clapboards would do.
Dia saw making the beach snack shack as ideal training for an idol's cross-promotional skills.
Dia sought out Kanan for the next part of her plan.
Dia asked Kanan to use her nice body to pass out flyers. She's not wrong about this effective strategy.
Dia got over-excited about the Kanan's "lure of a woman" compared to the "cherry" girls next to her.
Next up was food. Mari, You and Yoshiko think they got it covered.
You definitely knew how to handle Yakisoba. Her specialty is on the clapboards as "Yo-kisoba."
You got worried about the mwa-haha laughs coming from Yoshiko and Mari.
Dia thought everything was and it was time to present The Beach Hut.
After running the Beach Hut through the afternoon, it was time for some real running! Kanan was obviously in the best shape.
Dia couldn't believe Āµ's actually ran this far every day.
Chika needed to work on her core strength. The other girls needed to work on keeping Chika upright.
Training was over and it was time to rinse Ruby off.
According to Chika's mom, the girls' dinner was whatever was left over at the Beach Hut. Mari and Yoshiko had them covered! Uh oh.
Mari loves saying the word "shiny" and she even made a pun using it with the word for "boiling" (ē ®ć niru), which was in the title of the episode.
Mari and Yoshiko: "Dinner is served!"
Riko wasn't so sure about this Shiny Stew, but Hanamaru went to town and back on it.
Mari explained why it tasted so good besides looking so terrible. The best ingredients! Which meant the most expensive ingredients...
Yohan the Fallen Angel descended to present her hellish cuisine.

Yohane's version of takoyaki balls was too spicy for Ruby.
Mari is the snuggling type. Kanan is the snuggable type. This works out well for all involved.
Chika has a novel way of waking Riko up for a late night talk.
The girls quickly got into a routine working for the Beach Hut, including giggling and making fun of the younger girls.
Hanamaru and Ruby are going to go negative on their salaries if they keep breaking dishes.
You figured out how to make Mari's and Yohane's specialties actually taste good. Curry is like the duct tape of the cooking world. It can fix anything!
Hanamaru approves. Of course, she approves of anything edible.
This is pretty ironic that an anime girl is freaked out by anime girl eye stickers.
Riko and Chika confirmed their feelings for each other... Oh. Chika just encouraged Riko to go to the piano competition instead of the prelim School Idol performance. It was an emotional moment.
