◇The following contains spoilers
Sanae visits the host club "THE JOKER" at the instruction of her husband Seiji ( Yoshi Sakou). She calls on Kaoru and says, "You know my daughter, Manami, right? I'm sorry to say this, but please don't see my daughter again."
"Let's have a toast first," Kaworu said, changing the topic and showing consideration by asking, "Would you like a soft drink?" However, Sanae, who had downed the alcohol in one gulp, ordered, "An extra tequila, and a chaser, too," as if she was used to it.
"We used to drink a lot together, so I know what kind of people you are better than my daughter does," Sanae said sarcastically. She took out a wad of bills from her bag and showed Kaworu the "severance payment," saying, "This will settle the matter."
When asked, "What if I say I can't accept it?" Sanae let out a deep sigh and raised her voice, "What are your intentions in meeting my daughter? Of course it's just for fun. It would be fun to tease a stick-in-the-mud like my daughter, right!?"
"Right now, you're drinking in Kabukicho. And right now, my daughter is apparently giving career guidance to students at school. She said that she actually finds you a nuisance. Humans have a balance. You can't say which is right. But when incompatible things get close, it leads to unhappiness." Sanae took Kaworu's hand and pleaded, "Please, don't lead my daughter astray before she's married."
On social media, the episode garnered attention, with comments such as, "The more you watch the confrontation between Kaworu and Sanae, the more amazing it becomes," "Tsutsui Mariko's spirit is incredible," and "This episode made it clear why Tsutsui Mariko was cast."
When Sanae feels stressed, she calms herself by smelling the basil leaves in the kitchen. On social media, there were comments such as, "The scene with Basil's mother and Kaoru was memorable. It was really good!", "The Kabukicho Madam Killer vs. Basil's mother", "I'm curious about Basil's mother's past", and "Basil's mother must be too used to drinking."
