Synopsis

Chronologically, the audio drama takes place after the school camping trip and also after Rise's rescue. This places it between episodes 2 and 3 of the anime.

After being traumatized by Chie and Yukiko's curry—Mystery Food X—during the school camping trip, Yosuke begs Yu to make curry so they can mentally recover. Yu agrees to make homemade curry for a curry party after he grows vegetables at the Dojima house. He asks his friends what they use a secret ingredient in their curry to give it a little something extra to get an idea about what to put in his. While Adachi is over at the Dojima house helping with the garden, Yu also asks him what he uses as a secret ingredient, but Adachi mostly eats readymade curry pouches.

Adachi asks Yu about his pocket money, as he must be spending a lot between this new garden and also his scooter. This conversation leads to Yu getting a part-time job washing dishes at Shiroku Pub. Shiroku feeds him a good plate of curry after one of his shifts, but she refuses to tell him her secret ingredient even after he tells her about the camping trip. He keeps trying to recreate hers, but can never quite find the right secret ingredient that gives it the right flavor. When a heavy storm threatens the garden, the Investigation Team bands together to save the vegetables. With Marie's help, Yu is able to make a tasty curry for everyone that tastes similar to Shiroku's.

Meanwhile, Nanako makes a paper flower at school and is told by her teacher to give it to her mother for Mother's Day, but she isn't sure what to do since her mother is dead. Yu suggests she put it on the family altar, and Nanako does so in hopes it reaches her mother in heaven. When Father's Day comes up, both Yu and Nanako give Dojima gifts. Nanako later realizes that she wants to show her appreciation for Yu as well, and asks Marie when "Big Brother's Day" is. Marie, who is unused to these traditions, suggests that what matters isn't the day, but just showing your thanks to that particular person.
