The next morning, the girls talk about how they're going to try to improve their play in the upcoming summer season. They're not going to play against a bad team like Momozono, they say, because they don't want to waste any time on a team that isn't good enough. The girls say they've got a book on how to do this, and rumi is going to give it to them. They walk back to the dorms, and the girls tell each other about how lonely they are. They talk about the guy they like: machizo. He's a friend of theirs, and he always cooks for them. Um, that's kind of weird, but hey, he's got a birthday coming up, so he'll be able to go home for it. They hang out for a bit, and then rumi tells the girls about the upcoming movie, which will be about a girl named kumiko. He says she's perfect for the role, because she'll get to go to school with the girl's husband, who's also an editor for the comic. Um...wait...what's going on? Um, um, um...the girl is rumored to be having an extramarital affair with the guy who wrote the comic? Um...what the heck are you talking about? Nah, it's just a rumor. Uh-oh... Um...you're supposed to be the editor of the comic, and you're also supposed to know about the actress's affair with a guy who works at the comic shop. Um....what the hell are you supposed to do about it? Um....you should just tell machizo to stop all of this gossip about the girl, since she'd be a bad influence on him if he knew about it. Uh...you can't do that, since the girl is from the same town as you, but you can tell that the rumors are wrong, because you've just gotten a call from your mom about the whole thing.
