The young master is looking for the chinatsu who was talking to Masa, but the bawdy hostess introduces him to his cousin, Azusa, who is also a maid. The bawdiness of the hostess's conversation is interrupted by the arrival of the new maid, who introduces herself as "chinatsu" . She tells the young master that she is a maid and that she would like to work as a hostess for the inn during the new year. She also tells him that it would be a good idea for her to become a bride, since there are not many women in the baths. The maid says that she will try her hand as a waitress the next day, and the young man agrees to work with her.
