## Synopsis

Sara finds a man in a locker and carries him to the Pink Room. Nao remembers a conversation she had with Mishima about his past experience with failure. Nao runs away with Mishima's severed head, causing the others to go look for her.

## Summary

Sara picks up a metal pipe, ready to attack the locker in the Red Room or whatever's inside. The door opens and a man with a menacing glare startles her. The man faints over top her, and he asks for help. Joe then bursts into the room, and Sara asks what she should do.

Meanwhile, Nao still watches Mishima's body in disbelief. Gin tries to comfort her by resting his paw on her hand. Nao recalls a memory of when Mishima was driving her home one evening in high school. She was worried she wouldn't pass her exams. He reassured her that she had lots of time, and she would do just fine, but Nao was insecure that she can't paint or improve in comparison to everyone else in the art department. Mishima shared that he failed his own exams, and that for someone as proud as him, time healed his wounds. Nao felt comforted by Mishima's words that there's no need to fear failure, and if you just keep living, you'll surely find happiness. Nao echoes those words as she stares at Mishima's corpse.

Sara and Joe then enter the Pink Room carrying the man from the locker, evoking a surprised cry from Reko, wondering where they found him. They explain, and Keiji decides to tie him up with the man's handcuffs and chain just to be safe.

Sara notices Nao and asks about her. Keiji says although it's hard to watch, he has to be here so he can check out the corpse. Joe acknowledges that it must be tough for him, but Keiji dismisses it, saying Nao has it way worse.

At that moment, the participants' collars beep and an announcement plays that they body is going to be cleaned up, so everyone needs to leave the room. Reko tries to pull Nao away from the body, but she breaks, creepily claiming that Mishima is still alive. She picks up his body, and watches blankly as his head falls to the floor. She then picks up only the head instead, to Sara's horror, and runs away in denial that Mishima is dead. Gin runs after her.

Keiji, Sara, and Joe also run to try and catch her, while Reko is left with the locker man in the Pink Room. Seeing that Nao is not in the cafeteria, Keiji offers to search the second floor. Sara insists on going with him in case of danger.

On the second floor, there are many doors, but only one is open. Inside that room, the two of them find Gin sitting, facing away from them. Sara is relieved to see Gin, but he suddenly falls over. Keiji assesses that he is not breathing.
