In the sixth episode, Riko becomes pregnant with her illicit lover Ryosuke's (Naoya Shimizu) child and begs her husband Koki (Mitsuomi Takahashi) to divorce her. However, instead of agreeing, Koki rejoices that the child is his, and Riko is terrified by his appearance.
Meanwhile, Yurika, who is troubled by the issue of paying compensation to her husband Tetsuya ( Takashi Tsukamoto), turns to Maya and Riko for advice, but becomes increasingly angry at them for not returning her calls.
Then one night, the three of them gathered at Maya's house... and so things unfolded.
Maya and Yurika, who is in an excited state after being cornered by Tetsuya, get into a heated argument. Caught in the middle of their scuffle, Riko reveals that she is pregnant with her lover's child, screaming, "Stop it! I'm pregnant!" She then cries out, "I want to give birth and live with him and the three of us. But... if this keeps up, I'll never be able to escape the curse of my husband!"
Then, having cooled down from her excitement, Yurika muttered, "...We have no choice but to do it. Let's make him die," and Riko agreed, "Yeah, my husband and Yurika's husband too..." Then, when Riko said, "It'll be fine. I'm sure you can do it," Yurika blurted out, "That's right. I mean... this isn't our first time killing someone..."
Yurika's confession caused a stir on social media. Comments like "What, for real?", "What a shocking confession", "So that's what I thought...", "I knew there was something going on in her past, but hearing it for real hits home," and so on were posted.
