◇The following contains spoilers
One day, Shiho (Tabe) encounters her father, Junya, in front of her apartment building. Torarou (Wataru Ichinose) considerately calls out to Junya, "Oh, Dad, come in," but Shiho refuses, saying, "I don't have anything to say. Please go home." Seeing Junya leave, saying "Sorry," Ichigo (Nagai Kana) asks, "Who's that?"
Later, through her encounter with a single mother named Haruka (Oda Risa), Shiho begins to think, "Perhaps my father was also someone who was trapped in the idea of how things should be at the time (men working outside and women doing housework)."
One day, Shiho has some free time and goes to Junya's house, but is unable to open the front door, so she turns around and says, "I guess I'll just go home." Just then, Junya returns from an outing and calls out to Shiho, and the broadcast ends.
On social media, people were discussing the matter, saying things like, "Will she be able to reconcile with Junya?", "I don't think there's any need to reconcile with a father whose expression becomes so stiff just by looking at his face," "It's time for Shiho to face her own father," and "I hope she can reconcile with her father as well."
With the next episode being the final one, Mikako Tabe about Tabe Mikako."
