The next morning, Hirokazu asks to see his grandmother. He tells her that he has to go to Ugyunimo first thing in the morning so that he can talk to her alone. He also tells her about the fire that has destroyed his house. She tells him that the place is burning down because of the overwhelming power of his family. She asks him if he saw the news of the fire, and he says that he did not see it, but the second he saw it, he got so mad that he decided to set it on fire. He asks her to take over his family, and she says that she might end up filling in until she takes over for real. He says that if he took away his power, he would die, and that he would reign as king of the place. She thanks him for the fire and tells him to meet up with her the next day at the studio.
