Hideki wakes up to discover he really now owns a Persocom! Shinbo comes over and realizes what Hideki was hiding the other night. He tries to help Hideki by seeing if Chi has any DATA or PCN numbers. After a failed attempt to use his mini-persocom Sumomo, Shinbo sends Hideki and Chi to Minoru Kokubunji, a computer whiz kid. Minoru too is unsuccessful, but his persocom assistant Yuzuki determines that Chi’s data is just well hidden. Minoru talks about a legendary persocom series called "Chobits." As they go home Minoru gives Hideki some advice about Chi.

Hideki has moved to the city from the country to enroll in Prep School in order to pass the college entrance exam.

In the city, Hideki is amazed by the mobile computer units called Persocoms that almost everyone has. If only they weren't so expensive!

Walking one night, he comes across a cute persocom just lying in the trash, and decides he should do his part for the environment and recycle her as his own.
