While they are patrolling the city Hayakawa becomes annoyed with Denji asking whether Makima has a boyfriend and pulls him into an alley to beat him up, as a warning that if he doesn't take Devil Hunting seriously he could end up dead.

Once they get back to the Devil Hunters Headquarters, Makima assigns Denji to Hayakawa's squad.
