Episode 2

THE KISS OF DEATH is the second episode of the Buddy Daddies anime series.

Synopsis
Miri calls Kazuki "Papa" and has become attached to him. Even as Kazuki complained, he took care of feeding Miri and taking her to the bathroom. Meanwhile, Rei, whose pace has been completely disrupted by the two, asks Kazuki what he will do with Miri. Kazuki says he will take Miri back to her mother. Miri was the child of a mistress of a mafia boss who Kazuki and Rei killed. But without any clues about her mother, the two ask Kyutaro, the owner of Yadorigi café, to do some research. And Kazuki and team have received a new job...

Introduction
Miri was banging on Kazuki’s door, needing to use the bathroom. Kazuki, who has just awoken, is at a loss for words and just tosses the child into the bathroom. Miri, who is as little as the water closet's seat height, asked Kazuki's help in lifting her high enough for her to be able to sit on the water closet to pee. She then asked Kazuki to lift her up again to wash her hands on the sink after peeing.

Plot
Still in the current day of Christmas Eve.

Kazuki is currently cooking eggs for breakfast while Miri is busy bothering Kazuki while cooking. Their noise reached onto Rei's bathroom who's currently sleeping soundly which wakes him up. Kazuki gave Miri to him and made her play with Rei for a while as he walked out to the shower room. He lets Miri look through his video game collection, but she messed up and breaks several of them.

Rei and Kazuki discussed about Miri's mother while eating their breakfast. Miri's mother left a note with the photographs of her with Miri and Hayami, asking that she reside with her father, the human trafficker Rei and Kazuki executed just yesterday, and that he raise her. Kazuki and Rei believe it's better to send Miri to her mother, but they have no idea where to look for her. Kazuki tried to question Miri, but the only thing she knows that is a bit helpful is that her mother sings at work. Kazuki then decides to seek for aid on Kyutaro in order to gather information about Miri's mother, leaving the house with Rei while having left Miri in the home while enacting a kid show.

The two arrive to the Yadorigi café, which surprises Kyutaro considering Rei seldom leaves the house. Kyutaro began by indicating their little flamboyant outcome from their previous job as the two sat on the counter. Kyutaro chastises them for being not so discreet at the Christmas party. He assigns the two another job after some reprimanding. While Kazuki is pretending while attempting to get some information about Miri's father, inserting that the target has a doll, most likely a present for his daughter, making Kyutaro indicate that he will just look into it.

An unidentified individual steps in as Rei and Kazuki depart Kyutaro's café after some discussion concerning their next assignment. As the man enters the cafe, Kyutaro remarks that it has been a long since he has seen the man who has just arrived. He says he'll be in town for a while and requests to be kept apprised of any new work opportunities. He writes his phone number on a sheet of paper with the name Ryo Ogino inscribed on it.

Rei and Kazuki get home to discover the house in disarray, with utensils on the floor and the sofa flipped upside down, and they immediately thought there has been an intrusion, prompting Rei to draw his gun and prepare for any assaults. As they explore the home, they realize that Miri was the one who created the mess by playing hide and seek by herself. As soon as she heard Kazuki and Rei's voices, she came out of hiding and pointed an unloaded handgun at Kazuki, who was caught off guard.

Kazuki begins the next job talk as they are having dinner, indicating that their next target is a drug kingpin with a strongly secured mansion. The target's gang links with international mafias and is always at odds with other gangs. Cliffs all around the estate prevent them from getting a clear view inside, making them ponder how they will get in. When Kazuki sought Rei for suggestions, Rei envisioned an all-out rush from the front, causing Kazuki to react because they had previously received a warning from Kyutaro. While conversing, Miri approached Kazuki and said that his hamburger is nothing near as delicious as her mother's hamburger, which provoked Kazuki, causing the two to play a brief game of hide and seek. While playing with Miri, Kazuki got a sudden idea from the game.

While Rei is at Mega Echo Shopping Mart purchasing items, Kazuki sneaks into Yotsuhishi Security Services to steal a uniform. They try to leave Miri at home while the two decide to go to the area of their current mission, enticing her with goodies from Kazuki. She was thrilled with the snacks at first, but she burst into tears when she realized the two were ready to depart, causing them to bring her along with them.

Kazuki is planned to enter the residence disguised as a security maintenance employee to detonate explosives. He tries to move to the door but is halted by Miri, who says she wants to use the bathroom. He asks her to hold it and goes inside. Miri, unable to contain her pee any longer, rings the mansion's doorbell, and a henchman opens the door for her, letting her to use the toilet. Miri notices Kazuki in the living room as she is about to be escorted out by the henchman through the main entrance after using the restroom. As the henchman notices he isn't at his position, he starts following after Kazuki, who starts following after Miri when she flees to begin a game of hide and seek.

After Kazuki apprehends Miri, the two find themselves trapped in the target's room, surrounded by security. The boss directed his subordinates to kill him. Rei, who had arrived in the mansion's backyard by diving all the way there, positions himself up to get ready. When he realizes Kazuki and Miri are encircled, he starts shooting the goons from the backyard before engaging in a shootout. They fled on a speedboat in a group of three. While in the speedboat, Kazuki instructed Miri not to call him Papa outside the house, which Miri apparently didn't get because she still calls him Papa while nodding.

At home, Kyutaro contacts to notify them that, while they are on the mission, he has discovered some information about Miri's father, which he will transmit over. One of the details Kyutaro mentioned was the verification of Hayami having a kid with his mistress. Kazuki was reassured at the end of the call after hearing the details from Kyutaro.

Post-credit
Ryo Ogino, who is presently in the mansion of Rei and Kazuki's target from earlier that day's assignment, is executing the boss's subordinates while their bodies are scattered across the room. As the boss weep, pleading for mercy from Ogino, Ogino allows him to utter the final words he desired. Instead of pleading, he stated he'd pay Ogino, to which Ogino retaliated by shooting him. After murdering the boss, he uttered that the boss' last words adds no value on his collection.
