Episode 4

"Dawn of a Miserable Morning" is the 4th episode of the Kill la Kill anime.

Plot
While Senketsu is laundered, Ryūko faces up against "No-Late Day", a school event where students must navigate a trap-filled obstacle course and reach school on time, or else they will be expelled. Ryūko and Mako make their way across the perilous course, along with an injured girl named Maiko Ōgure, while Mako's family attempt to deliver Senketsu to Ryūko. After hijacking an armored bus, the girls manage to make it to the school grounds with 15 minutes left. However, Maiko is revealed to be the disciplinary committee's head of trap development, who steals Senketsu and puts it on herself in a bid to overthrow Satsuki. However, Senketsu immobilizes Maiko and allows Ryūko to retrieve him. With five minutes remaining, Maiko sets off one more trap to send Ryūko and Mako back to the start of the course. They two fortunately reach class on time using an express cable car, while Maiko is expelled for her treachery.
