## Summary

Meg and Alyssa are in a limousine on their way to the Black and White Formal. Meg comments to Alyssa that she took forever to get ready, and Alyssa assures her that she is just 'fashionably late'. Alyssa says she just texted Mrs. Hirahara letting her know that she would be late. Meg thanks Alyssa for inviting her to come along, and tells her that she is so excited to see Kousuke all dressed up. Meg says Alyssa must be excited to see Yeong-Gi, and that their relationship must be so frustrating, since it is mostly over the phone. Alyssa says her realtionship with Yeong-Gi is 'not that bad at all' and says he is so understanding. Meg says Yeong-Gi is sweet, but not better than Kousuke, since Kousuke will remain her number one. Alyssa smiles and comments that her sister's infatuation with Kousuke has not diminished.

At the same time, Yui checks her phone and sees the text from Alyssa. Yui tells Kousuke, that she just got a text from Alyssa. Yui talks about Alyssa's achievements, and asks Kousuke how he would feel if she helped Shin-Ae's future, but he tells her to "just leave her."

Meanwhile, Shin-Ae has just told Sang-Chul that she needs to leave to find her friend. He says he will leave her be, and she hopes he isn't lying. Shin-Ae leaves the ballroom, relieved since she felt like she was suffocating in there.

However, Yui is standing there. Yui comments on her looks, mentioning her makeup. Shin-Ae starts to say that Yeong-Gi did it, but Yui interrupts her and tells her that it looks like she is leaving, and that she needs to remember why she is there. Shin-Ae begins to say that she was worried about Yui's son, Yeong-Gi. Yui assures Shin-Ae that Yeong-Gi is fine, and she doesn't need to worry about him. She tells her to get back to the party and 'keep her eye on the prize'. She also tells her that the party is a Black and White Formal, and that her jacket sticks out. She says 'that dress you're wearing was chosen for you with him in mind. Let's not conceal it".

Kousuke finishes checking his and his mother's coat. Two girls see Kousuke and talk amongst themselves about how attractive he is. Sang-Chul then greets Kousuke. Sang-Chul remarks that the evening has been boring, but he is sure it will turn around. He also mentions that he witnessed something very curious earlier that evening. Sang-Chul aks if Kousuke came alone, and if he is planning on leaving with someone. He says that Kousuke could 'snag any woman' but he doubts that is why he came by himself because Kousuke is a 'gentleman'. Kousuke sees Shin-Ae, and excuses himself from his conversation with Sang-Chul.

Shin-Ae thinks to herself that the dress is so uncomfortable. Kousuke then calls her while reaching out. She assumes it is Sang-Chul, so she turns around in shock. Then Kousuke steps on her dress causing the two of them to slip.

Yeong-Gi gets a text from Alyssa. It says "I'm running late but I'll see you soon! Love ya!" He puts his phone back in his pocket and brings his hands to his mouth. A waitress brings him a black tea with milk and sugar, from Mrs. Hirahara. The waitress tells him to drink up before it gets cold, and to let her know if it isn't sweet enough. He thanks her, and she says 'No problem. Stay Warm!"

He holds the tea until it stops steaming, a white limo arrives, and then he places the tea down on a side table. He looks at the limo to see Alyssa stepping out.
