Niwano is frustrated because his long-time client, Kamiko, is having a hard time deciding on a property. Machi does not make a good first impression on Kamiko but she decides to ask for her help anyway.
In order to educate Kagimura, Machi makes him join a meeting with her client. But Kagimura refuses to listen to her and on top of that, he takes Machi's customer on a preview without her permission.
Machi suddenly takes a paid leave and disappears. Meanwhile, Niwano is shocked to hear about Machi's past from a customer who claims to be a classmate of hers from elementary school.
The uncertainty of the relationship between Machi and Rusudo worries Yashiro. Machi's new client is a couple, but not just any couple; both of them have extramarital partners and are open about it.
