Backstage, Aqua is looking over the film's script when Kana comes into the room and comments on him being gloomy. When asked if his role has sucked him in, Aqua affirms that it did and he now feels like he wants to die. However, Kana claims that she would then "slap his corpse" before making him promise not to say something like that again. To cheer him up, Kana shows him her secret: pizza chips with sprinkled with sushi na ko powder. While initially doubting whether such a snack would really lighten his mood, Aqua quickly admits that they are delicious after trying it himself. Aqua then thanks Kana, stating that he always ends up having fun when she is around, and leaves the room. Aqua's parting statement causes Kana to become flustered and frustrated, wondering if there were some romantic subtext in his words, before admitting that she likewise has fun when he is around as well.
Elsewhere, Ruby is praying at a shrine when it begins to rain. As she takes cover under the building roof, she is then confronted by Hikaru, who asks if she is alright and offers to share his umbrella with her.
