Trapped in a Dating Sim Season 2 Episode 4 begins with a peaceful day, soon disrupted by guards entering Leon's room, handcuffing him, and taking him away. A planted box of fake evidence is enough to turn the academy against him overnight.

After being unfairly imprisoned, Leon ends up locked in the dungeon, and from there Angelica turns to Marie for help, only to become a victim of an unforeseen turn of events stemming from Marie's request for a public apology.


A Planted Box Sends Leon to the Dungeon

A student named Meow goes to Leon's room, using a spare key from his sister, and keeps a box for Marquis Frampton's conspirators in it. Frampton calls him later, declaring the setup complete, and calls Leon a fool who wasted something valuable. Leon is completely clueless as he hosts a tea party for his friends to promote a business idea.

Clarice and Deardri warn Leon about the decreasing power of his family in the palace, but he ignores them. Later, the guards break into the room, accuse Leon of treason based on evidence planted by Meow, and arrest him.

Two guards take Leon to a jail cell, and Trapped in a Dating Sim Season 2 Episode 4 explains that they are actually Queen Milene and Gilbert. They tell him that Frampton's forces are strong enough to pose a threat to the Red Graves clan's stability and that Frampton is collaborating with the Principality.

Milene and Gilbert persuade Leon to remain in the dungeon and be the bait. That secrecy is one of the significant changes in Trapped in a Dating Sim Season 2 Episode 4, as Angelica does not know what role her brother plays. This puts Angelica in a position to confront Hertrude and accuse her of plotting the whole scheme before Hertrude's rage against the empire reveals itself.

Hertrude visits Leon's prison cell and tells him that she wants him to kneel for her and serve her instead of the Kingdom that imprisoned him. She explains that he never really wanted bloodshed or power, and therefore, this would be a good time for him to switch sides and get the peaceful life he seeks. Leon refuses her without thinking it over, although Luxion points out that there is doubt in her offer.

Frampton manages to secure Hertrude's help in the project by giving the Principality back its lost item in exchange for territory. Vandal and Garrett are getting Hertrude's younger sister, Herra, ready to lead the attack.


Marie Finally Agrees to Help Leon

Angelica begs her father, Vince, to free Leon, but he says that Leon has lost his usefulness when his airship and armor have been taken away. While the girls have no other choice now, they turn to Marie, who enjoys making them beg and agrees to help them only if they beg publicly.

Hence, while all the observers laugh at them during their public humiliation, Marie tells them that if they want her help, they should humiliate themselves. However, the princes intervene just in time to force Marie to help them, which shakes Marie a little. Trapped in a Dating Sim Season 2 Episode 4 ends with the Principality's fleet already advancing toward the kingdom.
