Plot
Sitting at a table on the balcony of her mansion, Kokone takes a bite of a sandwich. Hearts float around her, and a faint sandwich Recipeppi appears. The fairy disappears, and Kokone frowns as her butler Todoroki arrives to take her to school.

Looking out the car's window, Kokone thinks back to when Cure Precious brought her back home. She remembers how Precious had dropped her off in front of the mansion before jumping back away. Looking back away from the window, Kokone closes her eyes and smiles to herself.

At Shinsen Middle School, Yui talks to one of her classmates. The room then goes silent as Kokone steps into the doorway. While she walks to her desk, people start whispering about her and calling her Lady Fuwa. Yui asks her classmate about this, and she compliments Kokone's intelligence, beauty, and figure. She says that Kokone's father owns a high-class restaurant called Du Lac, and likens her to a princess living in a different world. Nearby, some blushing boys consider talking to Kokone, who frowns and walks away. This prompts one of the boys to say he didn't think she would talk to them anyway.

That night at Nagomi Diner, Yui and Rosemary eat dinner prepared by Ahiko. Akiho asks Yui how her class is, and Yui says there's some people she knows. She asks Rosemary if he remembers the girl they met in town, and introduces her as Fuwa Kokone, saying they're in the same class. Yui looks down and says that everyone calls her "Lady Fuwa". Akiho smiles and says she hopes they'll be good friends, and Yui and Rosemary smile.

Later on, elsewhere in the house, Kome-Kome is sitting on Yui's lap. The fairy pats her own head and transforms into a baby again. A small sandwich comes out of the Heart Cure Watch and onto the table, and Yui begins to feed Kome-Kome. Rosemary says the fairy looks happy with her transformation skill. Pam-Pam comes up to Yui and tells her she wants to see Kokone. She says Kokone is the most beautiful girl she's ever met, and that she wants to become friends with her. Rosemary, frowning, grabs Pam-Pam and begins stretching her cheeks, telling her not to talk, to the fairy's dismay. Pam-Pam says that Kokone helped her and Kome-Kome, and that she wants to thank her properly. Yui tells Pam-Pam she'll ask Kokone the next day, causing Pam-Pam to smile as Rosemary stops stretching her.

At the hideout of the Bundoru Gang, Godatz expresses distaste for Gentlu's work, asking how she could repeatedly fail when she knows what he wants. Gentlu apologizes, and Secretoru explains that the Pretty Cure has kept ruining their plan, but they're preparing for the next action. Godatz disappears, and Secretoru tells Gentlu that Godatz likes bread, and that offering that will make him happy. She says that the more she gives, the happier he will become. Gentlu understands that Secretoru is asking her to collect multiple Recipeppis at a time, and the two perform the Bundoru chant.

The next day at Shinsen Middle School, Yui enters her classroom hoping to talk to Kokone, but she isn't there. After class ends, Yui tries to talk to Kokone again, but gets interrupted by her classmate as Kokone leaves. Later, Yui falls asleep and once again misses her chance. While Yui wakes up, Kokone stands in front of a rabbit hutch outside the school, peering inside. She looks to the left of it and notices a hole in the ground at the edge.

After another class, Yui calls out to Kokone, inviting her to lunch, but she isn't at her desk. Yui's classmate Hanamichi Ran tells her that Kokone already left, but that she might be in the cafeteria. Yui heads there, as does Ran.

Hearts float around the cafeteria as the students eat lunch. Yui, despite being famished, decides she has to find Kokone before eating anything. Meanwhile, Ran takes a bite of some ice cream, and a faint ice cream Recipeppi appears.

Searching outside, Yui's stomach growls. She notices Kokone trying to pull a large mat away from the side of a building. Struggling, Kokone falls over. As Kokone starts to try again, Yui walks over and places her hands on the handle. She asks Kokone if she wants to move it, and Kokone brushes her off, saying she can do it herself. Yui tells Kokone that her grandmother said "mixing is the tip for both soup and people's power", then clarifies that she means they can do it when they join hands, winking and grinning at her. Kokone seems surprised, and the two girls start pulling the mat away. They manage to get it away from the wall a bit, and Kokone immediately runs over to the gap they've created. Yui asks Kokone what's wrong, then notices a baby rabbit in the corner of the gap.

The girls bring the rabbit back to the hutch, filling in the dirt hole with a rock. Yui tells Kokone that she's kind, surprising her. Yui thanks her for helping Kome-Kome the other day, and Kokone blushes, saying they met by chance. Yui invites Kokone to come over to her house after school, or meet her at Kokone's favorite place, since she wants Kokone to see Kome-Kome and Pam-Pam again. Kokone, shocked, looks down. Yui says that the fairies' big cute eyes are saying they want to see her, and Kokone notices Pam-Pam next to Yui, who is, in fact, looking at her with big cute eyes. Yui, surprised, notices Pam-Pam and asks her why she's there. Yui picks up Pam-Pam, who's wagging her tail, and says that since it's not okay at school, they can meet afterwards. Pam-Pam and Kokone lock eyes, the fairy filled with adoration, and the girl blushing and trying not to smile.

Meeting up with them later outside a place called Heart Bakery, Kokone continues to blush and try more than ever not to smile as she looks at Kome-Kome and Pam-Pam. As she begins to call them cute, stumbling over her words, Yui comes back to their table with some food. Yui says that Rosemary should've come too, thinking back to Rosemary scolding Pam-Pam at Fuku-An when he found out she'd gone to school. Yui asked him if he wanted to come with them to the bakery, but he claimed he didn't want to disturb them. He turned away, winking, turning back around to say he'd come if they were okay with it, but Yui was already on her way out.

Yui clasps her hands and says she'll buy some food for him later. Yui and Kokone talk about their food, and Yui offers Kokone half of her sandwich to try. Kokone begins to thank her, blushing, but Yui's already begun talking about dog treats she bought for the fairies. Kokone looks at her sandwich before watching Yui take a bite of her own and smiles, surrounded by hearts. Everyone eats their food, and Pam-Pam looks back at Kokone, wagging her tail.

Yui asks Kokone if she comes to Heart Bakery often, and Kokone says she does. She says it's always quiet and calm, and that she likes to spend time alone there. Yui apologizes for being noisy, but Kokone tells her it's not that. Three Recipeppis, curry bread, sandwich, and heart bread, fly up to Kokone. Yui notices, and the two girls look at each other, then at the fairies, then back at each other, surprised they can both see them. The fairies disappear, and Yui's eyes light up as she asks Kokone if she can see them. Kokone says she can, asking if Yui can too. Yui answers, and Kokone's eyes widen. Yui gets excited, then apologizes and covers her mouth.

Yui gets up to get some curry bread, but Kokone stops her. About to break her own curry bread in half, Kokone is interrupted by Gentlu stealing Recipeppis. Yui runs towards Gentlu, and Kome-Kome follows her. Rosemary swoops in and stands in front of Yui, confronting Gentlu. Yui asks why he's here, and he ever so subtly says it's too embarrassing to say he came secretly with envy.

Kokone stands up and notices that people around her are complaining about their food's taste changing. She takes a bite of sandwich and notices that it does taste different.

Gentlu looks at her tin and says that three Recipeppis will do, then summons a kitchen scale Ubauzō. Yui turns around to see Kokone watching, and tells her to go to a safer place. Rosemary starts to make a Delicious Field, and Kokone remembers when she saw them enter one before. As Rosemary makes the Delicious Field, Kokone jumps towards it, Pam-Pam in hand. Pam-Pam begins to glow blue, then the glow extends to Kokone as well. They shimmer and enter the field.

Inside, Pam-Pam asks Kokone why she's there, before quickly covering her own mouth. Surprised, Kokone then looks over at Yui, who, facing away, proceeds to transform into Cure Precious. Kokone begins to say something, causing Precious and Rosemary to turn to look at her, with Rosemary asking how she got in. The Ubauzō prepares to attack, and Rosemary says he'll take care of Kokone. Precious jumps towards the Ubauzō, punching the top before being launched back upwards and landing on the ground. Rosemary runs towards Kokone and tells her it's dangerous, and tries to take her back to Oishīna Town. Kokone, however, just keeps watching Precious.

The Ubauzō takes off the scale's top and throws it like a disc. Precious jumps over it, but it spins around behind her. Rosemary warns her, and she barely guards against it, getting sent back as the Ubauzō places it back atop itself. Kokone asks Rosemary what's going on, and he tries to dodge the question. Kokone looks at Pam-Pam and begs her to answer, saying she knows she can speak. Pam-Pam explains that the stolen Recipeppis are why the taste changed, and that Precious is fighting to get things back to normal. Precious sends a punch at the Ubauzō, who jumps up and seemingly lands headfirst on her. Rosemary calls out to her, concerned. Gentlu muses that the Ubauzō becomes stronger if she gets more Recipeppis.

Precious says not to worry, pushing up the Ubauzō. She says that she'll protect Heart Bakery, and begs Rosemary to get Kokone out quickly, struggling to keep up the Ubauzō. Rosemary makes an opening in the Delicious Field, and he and Pam-Pam tell Kokone to leave. Pam-Pam begins to cry, apologizing and saying this wouldn't have happened if she hadn't insisted on seeing her. Kokone places a hand on Pam-Pam and tells her it's good she met her, and that she's going to stay. Kokone says that being alone was comfy for her, and relationships made her tired, but when she's with Yui, she feels something warm in her heart, a desire she never had. She wants to protect Heart Bakery with Yui. She remembers Yui's earlier words, saying they can do anything when they join hands.

Pam-Pam glows blue and floats up, telling Kokone she wants to protect it with her too. The gem on her collar glows, and beams a Heart Cure Watch onto Kokone's wrist. Kokone looks at it in surprise, and Pam-Pam tells her to transform into a Pretty Cure. At the end of the transformation, Kokone poses, announcing herself as Cure Spicy.

Spicy leaps towards the Ubauzō with a kick, sending it back. Precious asks her if she's Kokone, and she smiles and says she's Cure Spicy. Precious beams at her, and Rosemary and Gentlu react to the transformation in surprise. Gentlu orders the Ubauzō to attack again, and Spicy says she has a plan. The two jump over the disc the Ubauzō throws, and Spicy uses a magic shield against it when it comes back around, causing the disc to fall down While the Ubauzō is confused, Precious jumps down and kicks it. The Ubauzō dodges, and Spicy uses a magic attack called Peppery Sandwich Press on it, squishing the Ubauzō between two magic bread-like objects. Precious then uses 500 Kilocalorie Punch, knocking the monster into the rock behind it.

Spicy's watch glows, and Pam-Pam tells her to finish the Ubauzō off. She performs Spicy Circle, purifying the Ubauzō and saving the Recipeppis, who fly into her watch. Before leaving, Gentlu says she'll remember Cure Spicy. Precious runs up to Spicy and congratulates her. Spicy smiles and says it's because they joined hands. Blushing, she thanks Precious, who blushes as well, smiling and thanking her too. Pam-Pam tells Spicy they'll always be together from now on. Rosemary walks up and calls Spicy a reliable friend, which Precious agrees with. Precious's stomach growls, and the group, including Rosemary, goes to Heart Bakery after they leave the field.

While the fairies nibble on their own treats under the table, Kokone breaks her curry bread in half. Blushing, she offers some to Yui, who takes a bite. Kokone then takes a bite of her own half as well.
