[edit] Plot summary
Jadeite angrily thinks about Sailor Moon. Thetis, one of Queen Beryl's own monsters, comes up and talks to him. She says that she still loves Jadeite, and proposes to win his favour, by running a special mission, called "Operation Romantic Cruise".
Usagi and Naru talk about the advertisements that they've seen about a romantic cruise. Umino comes up, and wonders if he and Usagi would fall in love if they went on the cruise together. Usagi tells him that it's not likely. He says that he had tickets to the cruise, but he gave them to the lady next door, because it would be delinquent for them to be out so late at night. The girls despair at Umino, but he tells them that there is a raffle at a shop, and the first prize is two tickets on the romantic cruise. Usagi runs off and tries to win the prize, multiple times, but she isn't successful. As she leaves, she comes across Rei, and convinces her to try her luck. Using her psychic powers, Rei wins the grand prize, much to Usagi’s dismay. Usagi tries to convince Rei into giving Usagi one of the tickets, but Rei instead gives the ticket to Ami.
As the two board the ship, Usagi sneaks in (along with Luna) disguised as a photographer. While Ami and Rei try to find boyfriends, Usagi gets lost but meets up with the captain. The captain is, of course, Jadeite in disguise, and his first mate is the monster Thetis. Usagi flirtatiously asks Jadeite to help her find her camera crew. An intercom announcement people to come to the dance floor, and the romantic energy of the couples is leached away. Rei and Ami are left with their energy, as they are not in love. Thetis angrily taunts them about their lack of boyfriends, and commands the crew to get Ami and Rei. Ami says to Rei that they can't transform, as they would be giving their identities away. Sailor Moon then appears and gives a speech about preying on loveless girls - which angers Rei greatly. As Sailor Moon distracts Jadeite and Thetis, Rei and Ami transform. The Senshi then defeat Thetis together, and Jadeite leaves, to fight another day. The cruise ship transforms back into what it was before Thetis' spell - a wreck, and the couples recover and leave the ship dazedly. Rei and Usagi say that they'll go on another romantic cruise, with boyfriends, and begin fighting. Ami takes out a book and studies. [1][2]
[edit] English-language dub
There are some cuts of the romantic cruise advertisements when they show alcohol. Jadeite flirts with Serena when he finds her, whereas in the original, Jadeite is courteous to Usagi.[3]
In this episode's "Sailor Says" segment, Sailor Moon cautions her viewers to not fall for a pretty face, and tells them "don't settle for someone who treats you badly".[4]
