==Plot==
The following morning, Youto pays a visit to the Azuki household, seeking support for Tsukasa's situation.
Returning to the Tsutsukakushi household, Youto informs Tsukiko that he has a secret plan to deal with Breasts Onee-san, while the real problem is convincing Tsukiko's grandparents that they are happy living here.
They wake Tsukasa up and dress her in proper clothes before dragging her out to the courtyard for a commemorative photo. Tsukushi also goes along, appearing more excited than anyone else despite pretending to be disinterested. Though they have some trouble setting up the camera, the photoshoot ends in success.
After that, they clean up the house and wait for the arrival of Azusa's mother and father as part of the plan to defeat Breasts Onee-san. The doorbell soon rings, and Youto goes to answer, expecting his reinforcements. However, the visitor turns out to be Breasts Onee-san.
Youto rushes back to the banquet hall, but Tsukiko is no longer there. Sounding irritated, Tsukasa questions him what he's doing, so he makes up the excuse of searching for the house key he dropped during cleaning. He pretends to search, attempting to buy time for the Azukis to arrive. However, the doorbell stays silent.
Eventually, Tsukasa has had enough. Letting out a sigh, he tells Youto that the Azukis won't be coming, much to his surprise. She explains that she received a call from them, but declined their help, insisting on solving the matter without outside intervention.
Youto becomes frustrated with himself for believing that such a simple plan would actually work. Tsukasa attempts to comfort him, emphasizing that there is no evil in this situation — both sides care for the Tsutsukakushi sisters equally. She expresses her belief in resolving the conflict through mutual understanding rather than deception, adding that they had already come to a resolution yesterday and assuring him that adults have their own way of dealing with things.
However, Youto knows via his childish instincts that adults are liars. Looking into the banquet hall as negotiations resume, he sees Tsukasa rubbing her head against the floor, desperately begging. Falling in despair, he buries his head into his arms, when he feels the warmth of another child. Tsukiko admits that she too had been too childish, overestimating their capabilities as mere children. Citing Youto's promise that he'd borrow everyone's strength, she reminds him of one particular person that he should ask more than anyone else.
Some time later, Breasts Onee-san leaves, and Youto joins Tsukasa in the banquet hall. They share a quiet moment, gazing towards the yard, the scenery reminding them of the photo. Tsukasa mentions that Breasts Onee-san was certain that the grandparents will love the photo, a clear attempt to comfort Youto. Youto silently acknowledges her lie but chooses not to challenge it as she assures him that it's an adult's joy to do something for their children.
Though he enjoyed his stay in this children's world, Youto realizes that it is time to grow up. He admits that just like Tsukasa initially suspected, he does indeed have something to tell her. He acknowledges that the story he is about to tell may be hard to believe, but emphasizes its importance. In response, Tsukasa nods, giving him a kind smile.
