Episode Title:
Greed Equals Justice
Episode Description:
Senku reveals they have run out of revival-fluid, but Ryusui correctly deduces that journalist Minami hid one person’s worth of fluid, so Gen makes a secret deal with her to get it back. At Ryusui’s direction they locate and revive Francois, Ryusui’s own butler/chef of indeterminate gender and nationality. As a professional Francois is unconcerned by 3,700 years having passed and gets to work producing Stollen, a Christmas sweet bread containing butter, nuts, fruit and alcohol that can stay edible for a whole year. Minami demands Senku fulfil her deal with Gen so, working with Kaseki and Chrome, Senku recreates a Daguerreotype, the worlds first primitive camera. Minami swears to photograph every stage of Senku reviving civilisation. Senku also plans to use aerial photography in their search for the oil field. Ryusui surprises everyone by agreeing the historic first photograph should be of Senku. After much arguing, Senku agrees to be photographed, but only in a very specific pose.
