When the scene opens, the narrator is in a daze. He's been having an affair with Nelly, and he's not sure why. He doesn't want to tell Nelly what's going on. He wants to know why she's having sex with someone else. Nelly tells him that it's because of the "encounter" with the lecherous lecherous nanase, and that she'd rather live with someone she can depend on instead of her. The narrator tells Nelly that she can't be jealous of Nelly's love life, because she herself is always "cute" . He tells her that he wants to talk to Nelly more about her, but that she needs to stop being so "cuter" when they're "embarrassed." The narrator is all, "I don't care what you think of me, I just want to know what you're thinking of me."
