Nephrite gives up trying to get power from humans and focuses on finding the Silver Crystal. He uses a black crystal to help him identify its location. He thinks that Naru (who is still in love with his human guise) may have the clue. However, when he asks for the Silver Crystal, she brings him a jewel from her mother's store. Sailor Moon busts in on the scene just as Nephrite realizes that maybe Naru's love for him is itself a powerful source of energy. A monster sent from Zoisite, who mistakes Nephrites's locating crystal for the Silver Crystal, also appears. Sailor Moon dispatches it and tries to finish Nephrite as well... but Naru throws herself over him, and Sailor Moon is forced to stop her attack.
