The day of the meeting between the two families, which Ebiwara Katsuo (Takeuchi) and Ayumi's parents had secretly planned, arrives. Ayumi's older sister Sayori (Kikuchi Akiko) also joins, saying she "absolutely has to," but Ayumi's father, Shoji (Hoshida Hidetoshi), arrives late.
Sayori revealed that Shoji was not late because of work, but because he was out fishing, and said that he "doesn't care about his family." Ayumi's mother, Takae (Harumi Shuhama), apologized to the Ebiwara family, saying, "I'm sorry for showing you such a shameful side of me," and declared that it was all Shoji's fault. Shoji looked Katsuo in the eye and said, "In our family, it's all my fault. You should really be careful when choosing a wife," which made Takae even more furious.
After the meeting, Ayumi sighed and told Katsuo that she remembered why she had been so determined to get married. Referring to a time when Takae had irritably said to her as a child, "I wonder if Dad will die? Then I'll get the insurance money," Ayumi confessed to Katsuo, "I thought to myself that I would never let that happen, that I would definitely build a happy family."
On social media, many people commented, "Please don't say things like, 'I wonder if Dad will die, then we'll have insurance and everything will be easier,' in front of your children. Those kinds of things stay with you forever," "I don't want to end up like that, I absolutely understand that I want to build a happy family," "Ayumero's family situation was so realistic that that scene really hit home," and "I can really understand how Ayumi feels. When your family home is unstable, you dream of a happy marriage."
