This is the recap of the anime series SPY x FAMILY Season 2 Episode 1!
After eliminating an armed militant group, Yor contacts her employer over the phone to confirm the job's completion. Unaware that one of her targets survived and now aims a gun at her, she plans to pick up milk and eggs for Loid on her way home. Back at home, Loid, Anya, and Bond watch a news report about the demise of the Red Circus, a radical terrorist group. Anya, uninterested in the news, requests cartoons instead. Initially refusing, Loid gives in to Anya's tears, and she happily changes the channel to Spy Wars.
When Yor returns home with groceries, Loid notices her irritated expression and becomes concerned. Yor mentally discloses that she got shot in the butt, causing the intense pain behind her grumpy demeanor, surprising Anya. As Yor goes to bed, Loid mistakenly thinks she's upset about running errands and is determined to make amends, hoping she'll feel better in the morning.
With the morning bringing no improvement to Yor's expression, Loid, determined to lift her spirits, suggests going on a date. Despite Yor's initial reservations about dating, she agrees, aiming to practice the role of a married woman.
Anya eagerly anticipates joining them on the date, but Loid rejects the idea, stating it wouldn't be a proper date with her presence, much to her surprise. Loid enlists Franky to take care of Anya and Bond, compensating him for his assistance. Intent on creating the perfect date, Loid plans various activities, even considering a helicopter and wine date. However, Yor's lingering pain prevents her from sitting comfortably, leading her to prefer a walking date, eliminating most of Loid's ideas.
Misinterpreting her discomfort as lingering anger, Loid and Yor set off for their date. Concerned about them, Anya proposes to Franky that they shadow Loid and Yor, drawing inspiration from a scene in her cartoon. Eager to observe Loid's seduction techniques, Franky agrees, and the duo disguises themselves while Bond guards the home with Anya's toys.
Despite their attempts to remain unnoticed, Loid quickly spots Franky and Anya but chooses to ignore them, prioritizing Yor's mood. Loid takes Yor to a mall, suggesting a suit for her, but she declines, citing discomfort from the wound.
Their date includes various locations like the cinema, club, pond, spa, and zoo, but Yor's pain hinders her enjoyment, while Loid becomes distressed over his perceived failure to uplift her spirits. Franky teases Loid for the unsuccessful date, bantering with Anya. When Loid and Yor enter an upscale restaurant, Franky and Anya are rejected due to their attire and Anya's age.
As they prepare to leave, Anya detects someone recognizing Yor as the "Thorn Princess," the assassin who targeted the Red Circus. The waiter, a survivor from the group, seeks revenge. Anxious about Yor revealing her identity and jeopardizing their family, Anya convinces Franky to infiltrate the restaurant in spy attire.
At the restaurant, Loid and Yor order drinks, with Loid praising the establishment for offering blowfish. Unbeknownst to them, the former Red Circus member poisons a cocktail with blowfish toxin, intending to kill Yor. Inside the vents, Anya overhears the plan and urges Franky to act quickly. However, by the time they intervene, the poisoned martini is already served to Yor.
To everyone's surprise, Yor, with her high poison tolerance, remains unaffected, and the blowfish poison merely numbs her injury. Yor's unexpected resilience confuses both Loid and the Red Circus member.
Despite his initial failure, the former Red Circus member decides to improvise a bomb using ingredients from the storeroom. Meanwhile, Anya, still in the vents, observes that the room is nearby and disappears from Franky's view. As the former Red Circus member outlines the steps for making the improvised bomb, he slips on a large puddle of olive oil in the hallway, crashing into a shelf.
Upon entering the storeroom, a bucket of objects falls on his head. While searching for a suitable container, he realizes that the swollen container is a bomb. The makeshift bomb explodes on him, but it's revealed to be non-lethal with peanuts. Anya confronts him, warning against approaching Yor and urging him to make his girlfriend, Catherine, happy. Overwhelmed by the shock of a seemingly knowledgeable child underling of the Thorn Princess, the former Red Circus member faints, deciding to pursue a normal life.
Free from pain, Yor engages in cheerful conversation with Loid about the restaurant's food. Loid is relieved to see her in good spirits. Watching from behind a bush, Franky and Anya observe the scene. Anya takes pride in her assistance, while Franky wonders where she disappeared to earlier.
As SPY x FAMILY Season 2 Episode 1 comes to an end, Loid and Yor enjoy the city's night scenery, Yor expresses gratitude for the date and hopes for a repeat when she is not injured. Spotting a carnival, Loid suggests they visit, and Anya insists on joining, eager to ride the Ferris wheel. The following day, the numbing poison wears off, and Yor once again experiences pain, leaving Loid perplexed.
