Harima calls on Tsuka and asks him to help her prepare for her exam. Tsukumoto is excited to be working for her, but he is worried that he will not be able to perform well enough on the test. Harima reminds him that he has a long way to go before he can be a good man, and he is grateful to her for saving his life. He tells her that the test will give him an opportunity to put in a good scene with her, and that she will get to kiss him in the beginning of the movie. He asks her if she has seen his beard, and she says that he is waiting for someone to come and pick him up. He is glad that she has come to help him, and says that if she thinks he is good enough, then she should call him as much as she likes. He says that there is nothing between him and Harima, but that she is a nuisance to him.
