In episode 43 (aired May 27th), Kiyo confided in Tsuya about her past, when she was divorced because she couldn't have children. When Kiyo smiled and said, "At first, it was hard to even look at babies...but I'm gradually starting to enjoy it," Tsuya wore a complicated expression.
In episode 45, Tsuya tearfully confesses to Kiyo, "Me too... Me too... I have no children, and I was divorced... I'm here for the money." Kiyo murmurs, "For the money...", to which she smiles and asks, "Is that all?"
