Flashforward
An actress, Kana Arima, is interviewed about her reputation as a naturally gifted actress.

Summary
"You don't have to act, you're already creepy enough."

Aqua is called on set, working as a child actor for Taishi Gotanda's new movie. He met with his partner, a fellow child actress Kana Arima, who managed to piss him off with her righteous and judgmental attitude.

During the filming, Kana acted her part well, but Aqua expected the director's intention and decided not to act, knowing that he's already creepy enough as he is.

After the take, in fit of tears, Kana begged the director for a retake, because she recognizes that her acting in that scene was subpar compared to Aqua.

Aqua and the director then talked about acting, and how communication skills are important in it, especially those who can naturally feel out the intention behind the script and what the director wants.
