While Ran and Kogoro are arguing over which shows to watch, Conan recalls Haibara reminding him that if he wants to get his body back, he needs to help Kogoro to become a real detective.

In the anime, he reminds himself of the objective as Haibara doesn't show up until The Girl from the Black Organization and the University Professor Murder Case, whereas the manga version of episode 116-117 follows it.
