During a very intensive battle with Spiderguildy, TailRed is on the verge of defeat. At the last possible moment, she is sucked into some sort of time warp as a possible defense 'escape hatch', possibly by the twin tail barrettes that where given to her by Twoearle, and that she is wearing for the first time in battle. TailRed is de-transitioned into Soji, teleported, and finds themselves in another time and space, another dimension in another world, where time IRL has paused for a while. When he awakes, he finds himself in the presence of a mysterious, nebulous godlike Personage, that identifies itself as His Conscience. The Personage is pale and translucent, but has a humanlike appearance, looks like a glowing angel, appears to be genderless, and is wearing huge blonde twin tails. A very profound conversation ensues, with Soji being asked to review several of life's lessons that he has experienced recently, and the Personage is offering advice to help him readjust some of his recent thinking and attitudes.

Soji is helped to regain his Agape Love (love of what is good, correct, and proper) that has been overshadowed by a bout of Eros Love ( sexual love )''. ''This most notably, as the teenage boy Soji, his love and admiration of girls who wear their hair in twin tails is reaffirmed, and as the teenage girl Solar, the love and conviction to always wear her hair in twin tails as a symbol of her commitment to what is good, noble, and proper, is reaffirmed and rededicated. It is authenticated and reaffirmed that Soji has a masculine identity, and well as an equal and necessary feminine identity. The two identities can coexist in peace, as a bigender human. Soji is also strongly advised never to negate the friendship and love of the people around him, his Mom and Twoearle, just to name two of them. Soji is also given the hint that Aika probably is in love with him, and to never discount that, but to treasure it for what it is. Most of all, never give up on the Twin Tail Warriors, and their human counterparts, who have been at his side through thick and thin.

Soji is then transported back to reality, retransitioned into TailRed and placed into the battle once more. The Time Warp actually places TailRed a couple of dozen seconds prior to her seemingly destined defeat, thereby giving her a new 'lease on life', and allowing her just enough time to reboot mentally, so as to continue to fight with renewed vigor. ( See Episode 12 of the anime for the outcome of the battle between TailRed and Spiderguildy. )
