Episode Title:
I Met a Pine Spirit
Episode Description:
Natalie suggests that Azusa should get married, which Azusa rejects. Natalie then tells Azusa that there's a matchmaking party in a town called Tazine, which is falling into disarray and can only be resolved if a marriage ceremony occurs. Natalie also plans to accompany Azusa there and suggests that she should bring Halkara and Flatorte too, even though they are also uninterested in marriage. Arriving in Tazine, they find the place empty. The men at the party are not as attractive as Natalie thought before the group visit a temple owned by Misjantie, a spirit who blesses marriage. A woman appears nearby and reveals that she is Misjantie herself, who is upset because her business is declining due to people moving away. Natalie requests her to help find her a husband, but she cannot do so; however, she urges them to help save her temple, which will fall if a marriage ceremony does not take place. Azusa, Halkara, and Flatorte still do not want to marry, so Misjantie proposes another idea: to have Falfa and Shalsha marry each other instead. After learning of this, Beelzebub agrees with the idea since the marriage is not a real one. The people that Azusa met before all arrive to attend the wedding. The ceremony begins with Falfa and Shalsha wearing tuxedos and are given rings. Azusa is assigned to help with the next part, which now involves her daughters wearing wedding dresses. After giving heartful speeches, they both kiss Azusa. Back home, Azusa and her daughters plant a pine tree that Misjantie gave them, which grows to full size in three days. Sandra is not impressed with the new tree, but they discover that Misjantie made a small-sized temple onto the tree to have more marriage ceremonies at Azusa's house. Azusa does not like this idea, so Misjantie moves her temple (now normal-sized) to the village. After the credits, Natalie visits the new temple to pray for a husband, with little success.
