In this short scene, we learn that Mr. Hirokazu and Mr. Kishi are preparing to play lovers in a new movie. The two actors have begun to kiss in preparation for their roles, but Mr. Shiki refuses to stop. He tells his friend that he will not continue to kiss him because he is his "fan" . He also tells him that he does not want to be associated with such a "national treasure level aura" , which he feels is a sign of respect for him as an actor.
