Dual Chocolate (デュアル チョコレイト, Dyuaru Chokoreito) is the eighth episode of Kamen Rider Gavv. It features the debut of Gavv Chocodon Assist.

Synopsis[]

When Shoma asks Sachika why she is covered in paint, Sachika simply says that it was from an accident. Sachika, who does everything so dexterously, only replies that it was her fault. Shoma senses that there is a deeper reason, and bites his lip because he is helpless to help Sachika.

A new art dealer comes to Masako's mansion to see the studio of Suetsugu, an aspiring painter. Suetsugu also gets a scout! Hanto is suspicious that the art dealer might be a Granute. He has to be sure.... Then Shoma comes up with a plan...!

Plot[]

The episode begins immediately from the previous episode, with Shoma as Gavv frees Tamaki from being a Human Press. However, this time he quickly hid himself to cancel his transformation as Tamaki recollect herself from the strange experience. As Shoma meets Tamaki 'by chance', Tamaki is still confused about what happened to her as the last thing she remembered is being at the Art Gallery.

Meanwhile, at Valen situation, Glotta's raw power is proven to outclass him in every aspect as she maniacally giggled during their confrontation. Glotta marveled at how a normal Human like him could ever put up a decent fight against her. Although predictably, Glotta immediately defeats Valen by first sending an uppercut to him, before slicing with her scythe, and finishes him off by kicking him against the wall. The recoil is proven to be too much for Valen as his transformation is cancelled. As Glotta left, Hanto painfully remarked that Glotta's power is at another level entirely...

Back at Masako's manor, Shoma accompanies Tamaki back with Masako herself worriedly asked what happened to the young artist. Shoma and Masako also notice Sachika after being drenched by Orange Paint by Suetsugu, although Sachika tells them not to worry about her. The scene shifted to Hapipare as Sachika had just finished cleaning herself. Shoma is about to ask Sachika about her situation although Sachika is apparently more focused by the fact that Tamaki's assailant might be from the same type as the Monster that attacked Ritsu some weeks ago. As Shoma keeps pressing on, Sachika lied by saying she tipped over a paint, although Shoma didn't buy this as he know Sachika is a careful type. Despite this, Sachika insist that she's okay and maybe just a little tired before leaving. Shoma could see that she desperately tries to hold back her sadness and tears and murmured to himself that he couldn't help her at all...

Meanwhile, at Kenzo Suga's lab, Kenzo revealed that Granute race can copy the look of another Human, with Hanto angrily asked why the scientist didn't tell him about this fact sooner. Kenzo deduces that Granute might have possess a technology to mimic Human appearance, and the only way to distinguish them from Human is by looking at the lower mouth, which they cannot hide. Suspecting that the Scientist in question might have been a Granute, Hanto forcefully pulls Kenzo shirt, only to reveal that Kenzo is in fact a human, although there's a visible horizontal scar on his torso, much to Kenzo's bewilderment, and Hanto's disappointment.

The scene shifted to Granute World, with Lango having an impromptu meeting with the rest of Stomach Family. Lango revealed that Glotta finds out that there's a Pest that's obstructing the supply of Human Presses, with Siita claimed they had no idea about the said pest. Jeeph then slipped the information about Red Gavv in panic, much to Lango's confusion. Glotta then revealed that the pest in question is in fact, not the Red Gavv, but someone else entirely. As Siita and Jeeph is dumbfounded by Glotta's exclamation, Lango correctly deduces that Siita and Jeeph already known about Red Gavv, but chooses to not inform him about this matter. Furthermore, the stocks of Human Presses are diminished under their watch, which they fearfully admitted. Hearing enough, Lango immediately fires them from Stomach Inc. and declared that Human Supply procurement will be handled by His Agents and Part-Timers immediately, before ordering Nyelv to upgrade their workers to combat both Red Gavv and the Pest Glotta mentioned. After Lango left, Glotta sarcastically comfort both Siita and Jeeph that despite their dismissal, they are still considered as Family.

The next day, Shoma is now able to control his power level as shown when he successfully handles a vase without breaking, much to Masako's delight. On the other hand, Sachika absent-mindedly mops the floor and hardly notices Shoma's progress. Sachika decides to let Shoma clean the Atelier on his own while she tends the garden, asking Shoma to be extra careful. Masako is shown to be worried by Sachika's mental state more than ever. Just as Shoma about to do the task, the Doorbell suddenly rang, and Shoma comes to the gate, finding Hanto there. Hanto revealed that he wanted to ask Tamaki about the incident that probably involves Akita Shingo here, allowing Shoma to deduce that Hanto is on search for Granute Dean as well. Shoma politely refuses Hanto and return to his job, prompting Hanto to wait at the front gate while gathering more evidence as much as he can. Eventually, at 16:02 PM, Sachika and Shoma leave the manor, and a suspicious foreigner entered the manor under the guise of The Art Dealer, Sardinia, much to Hanto's suspicions.

At night, inside of Hapipare, Shoma is shown to be able to further refine his control over his power by breaking an egg properly after countless trials. Sachika is still absent-minded after all what transpires, prompting Masako to have a surprise visit at Hapipare. Masako exclaimed that she already knew that Suetsugu is the culprit that drenched Sachika in Orange paint, after the latter explained himself. Sachika instead blame herself for being insentitive when she tries to cheer him up, although Masako insist that Suetsugu is the one at fault. Shoma, who had been listening the whole time, promptly asked his boss why didn't she at least get angry at the young artist. Sachika then revealed she nearly snapped at the disrespect, but she deflated just before things escalate further. Sachika finally admitted that she had this habit ever since she was a kid, saying that whenever she tries to cheer someone up, most people would throw back insesitive comments at her, claiming she had it easy, that she didn't know their struggle at all. Sachika ended up thinking it was her fault by being too insensitive, hence why her deflating. Masako rebukes her statement by saying that an unempathetic person would've never agonizing over that kind of thing. The elder exclaimed that while her empathy might not always end well, it's part of her charm and lovable traits as she's straightforward about helping people. Shoma supported Masako's statement by giving evidence that her idea to make a tasty diary for him had brings him nothing but positivity all this time. Sachika is moved to tears by Masako and Shoma kind words and finally cried, much to Shoma worry as he had no idea if he said something wrong. 

The next day, Shoma and Sachika returned to Masako's manor in a better mood, only to find Hanto at the front gate. Shoma promptly asked whether Hanto is still busy observing Tamaki, only for Hanto to drag both of them aside to hide from Sardinia, who appeared again to scout Suetsugu. While Sachika is elated by this news, Shoma and Hanto smelled something Fishy about Sardinia's motive. After the Trio entered the Manor, Sachika is shocked to know that Sardinia is most likely a Monster, although Hanto claimed that the accusation is only a speculation. Sachika worries that if they cannot reveal the truth properly, they'll be branded as crazy people. In return, Hanto revealed his knowledge about the Monster in general having a Mouth located in their belly, much to Shoma's shock. Thus, Shoma concocts an idea after seeing a Tea set in front of them...

At the gallery, Sardinia marveled at Suetsugu's painting, much to the artist joy. Then, Shoma entered the scene under the guise of delivering Tea to the guest, only to purposely tripped and poured the Tea on Sardinia's belly, much to Suetsugu's initial dismay. As Sardinia cover being blown by Shoma's monotonous act and all-party present witnessed Sardinia's Gavv, The Granute revealed his true form and attempted to escape, with Shoma and Hanto give chase. Although Shoma become confused by this revelation as he knew he defeated Dean two days ago. Now knowing that his scouting is a lie, Suetsugu experiences mental breakdown and throws away most of the Paintings in rage and sadness over the fact that no one appreciates his paintings, much to Masako's horror. Just before Suetsugu could pierce the Sunflower Painting using his paint spatula, Sachika intercepted and angrily said that if he need to blame someone, he should've blamed the Monster for Tricking and Giving him a false Hope. Sachika then followed Hanto and Shoma with a pile of Orange Paint in tow.

Dean run away to a warehouse, with Hanto arrived first and immediately transformed into Valen Chocodon, ready to exterminate the second Granute on his list. As Valen and Dean locked in a brutal fist fight, Shoma arrives and hides from their sight before transforming into Gavv PoppinGummy. His transformation makes him seemingly bowed behind the racks as Valen looked on in confusion, before Gavv warned him about Dean, whom he thought he defeated during their last confrontation. The fight continues with Dean proven to be too much for Gavv and Valen to handle, prompting Gavv to utilizes Chocodan form and engaging Dean in Long Range battle. After being weakened by Chocodangun attack, Valen uses his finisher to defeat Dean. Or so they thought as Dean attacked the duo on their left, without any sign of prior damages. Dean revels on his Immortality as a flashback revealed that he's been modified by Nyelv, long before Lango ordered the Scientist to do so. As Valen angrily chases after the baleful granute, Gavv find him and delivered his finisher that seemingly defeated Dean. Only for the Real Granute to reappear behind them, unscathed and unannounced.

Just as before Dean could deliver another attack, Sachika intercepted in time and angrily doused one half of the Fish Granute with Orange Paint, much to Shoma and Hanto bewilderment. Sachika expressed her anger of the Monster swindling act and wished him to go to hell. Angered by the insult, Dean is about to attack the young woman, only for Gavv and Valen to intercept and finishes the Granute off. However, Dean appeared for the fourth time, with no paint mark in sight, much to Sachika's annoyance. Gavv is quick to notice this as Valen and Dean locked on in a fist fight once more and decides to find the real one incognito. Meanwhile, Valen had spammed his finisher twice only for Dean to seemingly respawn in perfect condition, much to his chagrin. Fortunately, Gavv finds the real one, who still have the paint mark. Gavv also finds out that the real Granute Dean had been continuously created many identical clones from his modifications, which took form of school of fishes. After Gavv dragged the real one out, Dean converted his clone into school of fishes that attacked the duo riders, prompting them to hide.

Gavv notices that a Chocodon Gochizo is on the top of his shoulder, prompting him to use it to create a Chocodongun, which he gives to Valen. Gavv also use the second copy on himself, equipping him with the same weapon. Gavv and Valen now presses their assault by dual wielding their Guns to shoot the School of Fishes in an epic showdown that shows their perfect teamwork. With the school of fishes completely obliterated, Gavv and Valen mercilessly shoots at the real Granute Dean, ultimately finishes the baleful Granute for good by their combined finishers. With the battle won, Sachika cheered at their victories and reveled at now there's two Kamen Riders at town. After a rather awkward selfie session, Gavv and Valen promptly retreated.

After reporting the whole incident, Masako appreciated Sachika and Shoma help, with Suetsugu gives Sachika the Sunflower Painting as an Apology and Peace sign, which Sachika happily accepted. As the trio walked back on the sunset, Sachika wondered why did Hanto and Shoma disappeared when there's a perfect chance to see the Kamen Rider up close. Shoma and Hanto mouthed that she should never know as her tendency to jump into trouble head on will cause them worry, although Sachika didn't hear this and keep pestering them as the episode ends.
