The next day, Uruka notices Fumino has the same underwear from the previous day, so Fumino has Nariyuki help her fetch clothes from her house, only for Reiji to arrive home early. They hide in a very cramped cupboard, waiting for him to leave, and Fumino discovers her mother's laptop Reiji hid after she died.

| When Nariyuki asks about her father, Fumino claims trying to fix their relationship is pointless. Nariyuki invites her to the top of the mountain where the stars are extra visible. After he hears her talk so passionately about stars, he advises she share that passion with her father. When her father remains stubbornly opposed to astronomy, Fumino decides to show him the truth on her mother's laptop. The file does not contain a thesis. Instead, it contains a video recording her mother made revealing she was never a mathematical genius. Therefore, she gave Fumino permission to do whatever made her happy. Fumino leaves Reiji with the laptop where the last recording is a young Fumino claiming that if she found a new star, she would name it after her father. Fumino remembers her mother telling her she was happy she married Reiji and hoped Fumino would find someone who supported her as well. Reiji finally gives Fumino permission to pursue astronomy, while Nariyuki reveals his mother had secretly met with Reiji to give him the courage to reconcile with Fumino. Having reconciled, Reiji decides to confront a terrified Nariyuki on his relationship with Fumino. |||
