Synopsis:
Edit
The crush that the young witch Yukari Sendo has on Moka drives her to endeavor to isolate her from Tsukune through various and often humorous pranks, including trying to make Moka believe that Tsukune is making sexual advances on Kurumu (who does not seem to care whether it is a prank or not). During a confrontation by a trio of lizardmen who are violently intolerant of witches, Yukari quickly finds that Tsukune is a true friend and vows to turn over a new leaf. Unfortunately, it means she now loves both Tsukune and Moka.
Long Summary:

Part One:
Edit
The episode opens with Tsukune narrating part of a letter he is writing to his family about the midterms at Yokai, which are taken a lot earlier than he expected, leaving him to score 128th in the Freshmen class. In spite of his falling exactly in the middle of the standings, he hears three male students (who all seem to have human form difficulties) expressing delight at being nearly 100 places behind Tsukune. Much to his shock, he finds that Moka has scored 13th. Male students comment on how Moka's not only beautiful but also really smart. Tsukune congratulates her, but Moka insists her score was a fluke. Moka then offers to help Tsukune study the next time they have a test. They both gaze at each other lovingly as the male students writhe in anger of how lucky Tsukune is to study with Moka.
Unbeknowst to them, Yukari Sendo, the smartest girl (and youngest due to skipping four grades, even placing first in all the school) in their grade is watching them from close by, infatuated with Moka's beauty. Yukari is complimented by her Class President on being the smartest in their school, but tells her not to push her luck. Wondering what they mean, Yukari is told that her Witch outfit is
Later in the cafeteria, Yukari thanks Moka for stepping in and defending her; Moka and Tsukune compliment Yukari on being a genius, but Yukari explains that she doesn't think so and express a love for Moka by pouncing on her and squeezing her breasts, Tsukune holds back a nosebleed as Yukari asks Moka to be her girlfreind; Moka tells Yukari that they can be girl friends, which Yukari misinterperts.
While walking through the halls, Yukari continues squeezing Moka, much to the jealousy of the boys they pass; Moka tries to get Yukari to stop, but doesn't know what to say to spare her feelings. Tsukune runs up to them to get them to stop, but Yukari puts Tsukune down by insulting his completely average self and how she wants Moka all to herself. Deciding that a beating will get Tsukune to stay away, Yukari uses her magic wand to mainpulate cleaning supplies into tormenting Tsukune, revealing her true nature. Unknown to her, the Class President and his posse are hiding near by and now have a perfect reason for going after her now.

Kurumu blushes as she says Yuakri isn't bothering her. Yukari is intially shocked by Tsukune words, but then becomes arrogant about being smart, saying that if people are not as bright as her, she doesn't want to make freinds with them. Yukari then comments on how she's always been alone. Tsukune now sees how lonely Yukari truly is and tries reaching out to help her, but several items fall on his head. Yukari laughs that Tsukune fell for her acting and runs out of the classroom. Tsukune prepares to follow after her, but Moka stops him, saying that he shouldn't be so cross with a little kid.
All the while, Yukari keeps laughing as she reflects on her life at Yokai; nobody in her class likes her because she's a witch and they think she cheats with magic to get good grades. Because of this, Yukari began pulling pranks as revenge for her mistreatment. She is bumped into by the Class President and his posse, whom she tries to shoo away, but finds they are there to teach her a lesson about disobeying the school's primary rule.
Part Two:
Edit
Back in the classroom, Moka is still trying to get Tsukune to see Yukari is hurting and needs freinds to ease her loneliness; Tsukune see Moka is saying Yukari's situation is similar to his own, but is too mad from Yukari's constant pranks to really pay any mind. Moka tells him that she is going after Yukari and runs out. Kurumu says that Yukari doesn't mind being well liked, which is typical of a witch. Tsukune is shocked by this and wonders why. Kurumu explains that Witches are not considered actual monsters OR humans, but somewhere in-between (based on the fact most monsters can be told apart from humans by their true form, but witches are only distinguished by their magic), so other monsters are prejudice against them; obviously humans hated them more because of all the witch trials and witch hunts. Tsukune now sees he was wrong.
Elsewhere, Yukari has been dragged to the pond near the school by the Class President as he and his posse transform into their true forms, Lizardmen. They plot to eat her to be rid of her annoying anctics; Yukari's wand is eaten by the Class President, leaving her defenseless. Moka arrives an

HIs two minions try to attack Moka, but are quickly knocked into the trees with Moka's kicks. The Class President roars that having such strength is against the School Rules (what fool amended his Rule Book or did he just make that up?), but is then kicked into the pond by Moka who advises him to cool his head; he promises to cool it and sinks to the bottom. Yukari wonders why they helped her and Tsukune reminds her that they are there for her because they are friends. Yukari breaks down and cries again.
A few days later, Yukari has cleaned up her act; she apologised to everyone in her class for the pranks she pulled, earning apologies from them for how they treated her, they also felt guilty about their snide remarks. Moka and Kurumu discusss this as they take supplies to their classroom, thinking that Yukari has matured. To their shock, they find Yukari is in their classroom, hugging Tsukune. Yukari tells them that since her classroom is next door, she'll be coming over to "play" often as she now loves Tsukune as much as she loves Moka. Kurumu becomes angered and begins pulling on Tsukune with Yukari in a tug-a-war. Moka tells them that they are wasting their time as Tsukune is hers; she bites him again. Tsukune yells in pain, telling Moka she'll suck him dry at the rate she drinks his blood.

Trivia:
Edit
Among the countless "Witch hunts/Witch Trials" alluded to are the infamous Salem Witch Trials in which multiple women were either drowned or burned at the stake. Such insane methods were used due to the fact they thought that a witch would float in spite of being bound. In later years some people concluded that the first victims of the Witch Trials were brought up on false charges due to envious people coveting their land. When a whole family was falsely convicted of witchcraft, (which included allegiance to the forces of evil) their lands were auctioned to the public.
As indicated in R.L. Stine's Book "Fear Street Saga Book 1: The Betrayal" every hiccup in lighting, weather and even the appearance of nocturnal animals like a bat were used to soildifiy the accused's supposed pact with the Devil. This simply adds to the theory that contaminated crops were eaten/inhaled which induced extreme paranoia, which fueled the hysterical madness of the witch trials.
