After passing, Iida and Ojiro had both pass. Team Ida & Ojiro vs. Power Loader, this match up was because Power Loader can negate both Iida's and Ojiro's mobility by manipulating the battlefield and setting traps but they won because Iida had allowed Ojiro to escape. And the team was up as Rose and that entered the monitoring room, where Recovery Girl, Midoriya, and Uraraka were. Team Todoroki & Yaoyorozu vs. Eraser Head had been the 4th battle and it began the moment they entered the room. As both Todoroki and Yaoyorozu were running through the alleys of a resident base area, Eraser Head stood over the city on top of a telephone pole, scoping the area for his opponents. "Good work out there, Asui." Midoriya had said to Asui as she stood beside him looking at the screen. While Uraraka had left due to her being up next. Both recommendations students were out in the open as Yaoyorozu was using her Quirk to make Russian matryoshka doll. "That seems like a good approach." Midoriya was saying looking at the screen.
"I don't think so." But it seemed that Rose had completely disagreed with him.
"But wouldn't it be good to now if Mr. Aizawa is close by?" The young man asked her, since that was the only reason behind it.
"Yeah, however, the one that came up with it was Todoroki." He didn't quite understand what she meant by that but it was clear that the Half-cold, Half-Hot was doing this to draw their homeroom teacher to them. Todoroki runs through the street and keeps his hand frozen. Yaoyorozu follows him and creates nesting dolls. But it seemed that part way through they had become distracted and didn't noticed until it was too late. Yaoyorozu had stopped creating dolls and before they knew it Eraser Head was above them saying something, but there wasn't any sound. Todoroki tries to freeze Eraser Head but the hero erases his Quirk and lands in front of the young man, who had then tried to kick Eraser head that had dodged and the latter yells at Yaoyorozu, who seemed hesitated before she runs and their teacher. "I told you, this wasn't going to work." Rose had completely seen through Todoroki's plan, which was for him to distract Eraser Head so that Yaoyorozu could run for the goal. Eraser Head swiftly used his Capturing Weapon to wrap up Todoroki and hang him from a light pole. "From the very beginning, Mr. Aizawa would've been planning to capture Todoroki first because of his offensive abilities."
"But wouldn't he be able burn or freeze the restraints? Ribbit." Asui had asked since that would be the obvious thing to do.
"It doesn't matter." But Rose already saw it. And that was beneath Todoroki as the ground was laced with caltrops by his teacher. "Our teacher is a ninja."
"So cool!" Midoriya's eyes seemed to be glowing with excitement. "But how did you know that they were going to fail?" He turned to the girl asking.
"It was because Todoroki's plan placed too much of the burden on himself. He didn't even think of relying on Momo or trusting her." That had been one of the main reasons that Rose knew that they would fail. The other was... Yaoyorozu seemed to be panicked as she runs towards the escape gate. As that very moment, Eraser Head catches up to her. Eraser Head wraps her arm with his scarf and pulls her towards him. But it was because of this that Earser Head hadn't used his Quirk on her, which she seemed to notice and freed herself by creating a cylinder around her arm to create space. Then, she runs back towards Todoroki.
"What is she doing? Ribbit." Asui seemed completely confused watching.
"Since the sports festival Momo lost her confidence." Rose was explaining that because she had noticed that the vice rep had began to question and doubts every decision she made lately and can't keep her composure enough to make new ones. "She's running back to Todoroki because she believes that he's better than her. In a sense you could say that's truth, however, he doesn't hesitate to take action and doesn't completely think things through." Which was kind of what happened with the Hero Killer. Although, she had no room to talk, but to use her Quirk she does need to think quite a bit. Yaoyorozu had made it back to Todoroki where she was yelling up to him but Eraser Head was approaching and it seemed to have sent the girl into panic mode once again. But she had been snapped out of it by Todoroki that was yelling down to her, although, she seemed to be uncomfortable, however, it didn't seem to matter as the young man continued to talk to her. Eraser Head had appeared from above.
"Yao-Momo..." Asui seemed to become worried as they were watching, if Yaoyorozu gets captured that means they both failed. But out of nowhere, the girl throws the nesting dolls at her teacher. Eraser Head swipes them away and knocks loose the stun grenades inside them. The light blinds Eraser Head and Yaoyorozu frees Todoroki from his bindings.
"It seems everything's going to be fine now." Rose said smiling as Eraser Head tried to attack but Yaoyorozu moves Todoroki out of the way, then tries to respond with fire, but it's erased.
"How is it?" Tokoyami had asked, curious.
"I don't think many have noticed, but since the USJ, Mr. Aizawa's eyes had gotten a bit unstable ." She was saying with the beginning of the explanation.
"Wait, that's means he can't use his Quirk as long anymore!" Midoriya had come to realise what she was getting at.
"That's right, their victory is a matter of timing and right now they just need to get out of his sight." Eraser Head throws his scarf at them from above, but he can't keep their Quirks erased and Todoroki counters with his signature move a large ice wall that blocks the man off. It had then been when Yaoyorozu started making her own version of their teacher's scarf. Since they're in a residential area, they must keep damage to a minimum. Eraser Head also pursued them too fast because he moves quickly with his own scarf. Yaoyorozu creates a catapult and loads the restraining bonds in it.
"Why isn't Mr. Aizawa going after them?" Uraraka had turned asking.
"He might've overused his eyes." Midoriya had informed her, as Rose had said earlier about Eraser Head's eyes being damaged. Which had been why he was watches their approach in front of the escape gate. It wasn't long when both had come running out from behind the ice hidden beneath cloaks. Eraser Head can't erase their Quirks while they're hidden, but they were at a disadvantage as well. Eraser Head wraps up one of them with his scarf, but it turns out to be a mannequin. Yaoyorozu tries to launch the catapult and accidentally misses the trigger. Eraser Head backs off and she launches the restraining bonds at him and they spread apart. Yaoyorozu shouted at Todoroki who shoots out his fire beneath Eraser Head.
"Why didn't he aim for Mr. Aizawa?" That had been wondered but that had been answered as the fire heated up Yaoyorozu!s creation and it tightens around their teacher in an instant. Then they handcuff him to officially pass the exam. Yaoyorozu seemed to begin to cry after Mr. Aizawa spoke to her.
"Oh my... when all's said and done, that means a softy." Recovery Girl was smiling as she signed.
"That's very true." And Rose had completely agreed with her on that fact.
"Team Todoroki and Yaoyorozu have passed!" And had had taken off out the room, as Uraraka he because it was her turning with Aoyama. Rose left the room to head for where she knew Todoroki, Yaoyorozu and Mr. Aizawa would come in from.
"Moriyama." She had flinched as the teacher stood in front of her. "You better be ready to fight with everything." She felt awkward a bit.
"Ja... yes, sir." But she could relax once he said that and left.
"Congratulations on passing." Rose was smiling at Todoroki and Yaoyorozu who were walking towards her.
"Thank you. I'm glad I was able to pass." Yaoyorozu had been crying before so her eyes were red. But it seemed that she began ti cry again. "I'll go ahead. I want to get a drink." The girl had then began to run off wiping away her tears. 
"I'm glad Momo's feeling better." She was waving to the girl saying, as she was leaving Rose and Todoroki alone.
"So you knew, huh?" The young man spoke about how Yaoyorozu had lost her confidence in herself.
"I wonder." But it was clear with the giant grin across her face that she had.
"You enjoy watching people having a hard time, don't you?" That had been said to her.
"Maybe." And it didn't seem like she was deny it.
"But you are amazing." She was quite taken back by his sentence. "You are able to understand people's feelings and act on them."
"That's because I'm an actress!" Rose had posed to the young man.
"Yeah, but I think it's more." Todoroki looked deep into her eyes, and for some reason she found herself feeling embarrassed. "Who is next?" But he didn't seem to notice.
"Was? Oh, it's Ochaco and Aoyama against Thirteen." They were just standing there together.
"Why do you think they were placed together?" Todoroki asked Rose for her input on the battle.
"I think it's because of how the two feel nausea after using their Quirks too much." She explained that unlike the two of them Thitrteen didn't seem to suffer from it. As for Uraraka and Aoyama, if they use their Quirk too much they become sick.
"So in other words Thirteen can exploit their nausea-inducing Quirks."
