The next morning, Hiro finds that Nishi is still living with his ex-wife. He tells her that he has a stroke and that she should go back to her apartment and rest for the day. She says that she would rather take a train ride than a car ride because she is sick. He says that if she were sick, she would prefer the train ride over the car ride. She tells him that she cannot think of any reason why she would not turn him down. He asks her to take him back to his apartment and says that he will be counting on her to come back with the news.
