The episode explores Kurumi's past, specifically her crush on an upperclassman (Senpai). During the initial outbreak on the school roof, he was bitten and turned into a zombie. Kurumi was forced to kill him with a nearby shovel to save her own life, an event that continues to haunt her dreams.
Yuki Takeya , still living in a delusional state where the zombie apocalypse hasn't happened, suggests a "test of courage" (kimodameshi) by exploring the school at night.
