Episode 16: Crying in Space

"Why we can not cry in Space."

Summary
"Crying in Space" is the sixth episode of the second season, and the sixteenth episode of Interesting Fact Time. It involves astronauts trying to fix their hair and constantly failing. This is also the most ignored episode in the series.

Plot
In a space station, a Japanese tomboy named Chiaki enters the bathroom and looks through the window before going to brush her teeth. Just as she's finished, she looks in shock noticing that her hair is messed up. She decides to make her hair more masculine, but that fails due to it immediately collapsing afterwards.

Just then, an Indian astronaut named Juhi enters the room and proceeds to shake her hair. Chiaki backs away in disgust, not wanting Juhi's greasy hair to get on her. Just before Juhi can brag about her hair, Chiaki pushes her aside and tries to fix her hair again, once again failing.

Juhi mocks her for this and proceeds to use her phone to dance to music, making her hair change. Chiaki walks away to leave the room in defeat, when Juhi shows up and flips her off with both hands. This causes Chiaki to cry, and instead of falling downwards, the tears move towards the plug outlets, electrocuting both of the girls in the process.

The electricity causes Chiaki's hair to drastically improve and causes the last of Juhi's hair to fall off. Chiaki feels her hair in amazement while Juhi feels like she's about to scream now that everyone will mistake her for a man.
