◇The following contains spoilers
Fumiko introduced her younger sister, Yoko (Noa Shirayama) and younger brother, Shuichi (Rikuto Ishizuka), to Fukami (Yuta Koseki). When asked by the two, "Is it true that you're going to make him quit his job?", Fukami answered the question properly.
When Yoko asked him a pointed question, "Don't you also play around with a lot of geisha?" Fukami replied sincerely, "I don't deny that. But ever since I met Fumiko, other women have seemed like mannequins to me. Your sister is a sinful person."
Afterwards, when Fumiko and Fukami were alone, she said, "As for the last question... I'm glad you managed to avoid it." However, Fukami replied with a serious expression, "Well, I did tease you a little, but I thought I answered seriously. So even I'd be angry if you said I dodged it." "I'm sorry. I'll take it back," Fumiko apologized. Fukami laughed and said, "Well, I'll lend you one," and left the place.
Fumiko, who was left behind, ruminated on Fukami's words and felt embarrassed, then patted herself twice on the cheek as if to pump herself up.
On social media, comments included, "Fumiko holding her cheeks is too cute," "The moment Fumiko held her face and regained her spirit was super cute," "Fumiko was seriously cute!", "Fumiko looked so beautiful when she was embarrassed in episode 9," and "Yamamoto Maika is just so cute."
