S1E07 One Style Final!/Plot

The episode starts showing Gou and Makoto watch as Haruka and Nagisa swim. Gou is amazed by Haruka's time and tells him that it's his new personal record. Everybody agrees that their training camp has paid off. Gou then tells Nagisa that he'll have to train a little more, but then Makoto tells her that they all have come so far in such a short time. Gou still wants to aim higher and tells the guys that she wants to find a new coach for them. Haruka disagrees and jumps in the pool.

Rin is shown at Haruka's door. He rings on his door multiple times but Haruka doesn't answer. Rin thinks that Haruka's not home but still tries to open the door and walks in his house. He stops walking as he watches Haruka's fish. Then, Haruka suddenly appears behind Rin and asks him what he's doing in his house, which is answered by challenging him to a race. Haruka tells him that he only swims free and leaves the room. Rin tries to run after him, but the scene changes and he's now standing by the pool and watching Haruka on a springboard. Haruka tells him to come and race with him, but the one who catches Rin's attention is his dad from his younger days. Rin's dad starts running and Rin decides to run after him. He appears to be running among a lot of people dressed in white kimonos, but doesn't stop. Again, there's something that catches his attention - him and Gou when they were kids. Younger Rin turns to him and says something which leaves shocked Rin behind. Rin finally wakes up from his nightmare and Aiichiro asks him if he's okay.
