Hana meets the resident who lives on the second floor of her building, Hiroe Hannen, who is allegedly studying for university exams. When asked why she has no clothes to wear for going to the convenience store, Hiroe reveals she had been lying about taking exams. Having experienced a mishap similar to Hana's on the day of her exams, Hiroe wasn't able to get into her university of choice and became a shut-in out of guilt of lying to her peers. Sympathising with her ordeal, Hana tells Hiroe about how she was a ronin too and calls on her friends to help her pick out some outdoor clothes. After managing to go clothes shopping with everyone's help, Hiroe gives her thanks to Hana for her help and the two become friends.
