| Man with Glasses | ... |
| Shopkeeper | Are you looking for something? |
| Man with Glasses | I want to give flowers to someone performing on stage... |
| Shopkeeper | In that case, then how about these? They will look gorgeous in an arrangement. |
| Man with Glasses | Hmm, let’s see... |
| What kind of flowers are these? |
| Shopkeeper | They’re called zinnias. |
| Man with Glasses | I see... I’ll get these then. |
| Shopkeeper | What colour will it be? The ladies tend to like the red and the pink ones... |
| Man with Glasses | Oh, I’m giving them to a guy... To a precious friend. |
| |
| Azuma | ... |
| Izumi | Huh? Azuma-san, your hair... |
| Azuma | A certain someone selfishly told me that he preferred long hair. |
| Izumi | A certain someone? |
| Tasuku | ...? |
| Me!? No, I didn’t say anything like that... |
| Azuma | That’s how I interpreted it. |
| Homare | Indeed, that way suits you more perfectly compared to short hair. |
| Tsumugi | I agree. I also think it’s better that way. |
| Hisoka | ...It suits Azuma. |
| Azuma | Thank you. |
| Izumi | You have good taste, Tasuku-san! |
| Tasuku | Did I really say that...? When...? |
| Azuma | Now then, it’s almost time. |
| Izumi | Can we have a few words from the leader? Azuma-san. |
| Azuma | ...Everyone, thank you for entrusting the lead role to me. I was worried whether I was suited for it, but I’ve come this far thanks to all of you. |
| Surprisingly, this play gave me the chance to finally face my past. |
| After opening up to everyone, I feel like some of my burdens have been lifted off my shoulders. |
| And thanks to that, I was able to truly accept this role of Reo. |
| Izumi | (Indeed — ever since that day he talked to everyone when we were in his apartment, Azuma-san’s Reo changed.) |
| (He also became more passionate about practice, and his exchanges with Tasuku-san got smooth too...) |
| Azuma | I’m an unreliable leader, but I look forward to working with you until the final performance. |
| Tsumugi | Yes! |
| Tasuku | Of course. |
| Homare | We’ll be counting on you. |
| Hisoka | ...I’ll work hard. |
| Izumi | Good luck everyone! |
| |
| Kota | “Hey, are you drunk? You’ll catch a cold if you sleep out here.” |
| Reo | “...Ugh.” |
| Kota | “Geez, I guess I don’t have a choice.” |
| “My place is nearby so I can take you there. But you leave as soon as you wake up, okay?” |
| Izumi | (The beginning scene. Kota picks up Reo, who was passed out on the street... Kota’s good-natured personality is really showing.) |
| |
| Reo | “Thank you for taking care of me. I was careless to have collapsed on the roadside.” |
| Kota | “Did you make all this?” |
| Reo | “I just made it from whatever I could find in the fridge, so it’s nothing grand. It’s my thanks for giving me a meal and a place to spend the night.” |
| Kota | “The place is all clean now too... Wow. Where did a wife like you come from?” |
| Reo | “I’ve lived a pretty long life, but I’ve never been a wife before.” |
| Kota | “I’m Seo Kota. You are?” |
| Reo | “I’m Reo... Kuto Reo.” |
| Kota | “Reo, huh. Nice to meet you.” |
| “If you’ve got nowhere else to go, I don’t mind if you stay here for a while.” |
| Reo | “You’d let a guy you don’t even know stay at your place?” |
| Kota | “Don’t say that yourself. When I first came here from the countryside, I also had nothing so I went through a lot. At times like this, we should help each other out.” |
| Reo | “How kind of you.” |
| Izumi | (Reo smiles faintly after being touched by Kota’s kindness... Because he lives in solitude, this sort of kindness makes a deep impression on him.) |
| (The contrasting atmospheres between Kota and Reo in their day-to-day life is really showing because of Azuma-san.) |
| (Reo is a foreign existence that wants to blend in with a normal world... The ordinary Kota by Tasuku-san makes Azuma-san’s Reo stand out anywhere.) |
| (Tasuku-san has completely erased his usual presence, and is making it so that Azuma-san takes the stage.) |
| Kota | “Hm? You’re not eating?” |
| Reo | “I eat during irregular hours. Don’t worry about me; go on and eat.” |
| Kota | “I’ll help myself then. Thank you for the meal.” |
| Izumi | (He doesn’t eat, and he goes out at night unannounced... That sense of unease towards Reo only increases bit by bit.) |
| |
| Nonomiya | “Hey, Seo. I heard you took in some guy who was collapsed on the street? That’s way too suspicious. Nowadays you only find that type of stories in dramas and manga for people nearing their 30s.” |
| Kota | “He’s a good guy. Looked like he was troubled, so I couldn’t leave him alone.” |
| Nonomiya | “*sigh*. You’ll get in trouble someday if you keep saying stuff like that.” |
| Izumi | (Nonomiya, a meddlesome coworker... A normal salaryman is an unusual role for Homare-san.) |
| (He’s become able to do this type of character with ease. It’s almost unbelievable that he used to be over-the-top with his acting.) |
| (He’s grown...) |
| |
| Izumi | “Good morning. It’s nice out today, isn’t it?” |
| Kota | “Good morning.” |
| Izumi | “By the way Seo-san, have you been taking days off recently?” |
| Kota | “Huh?” |
| Izumi | “It’s just that sometimes I hear sounds next door during the day on weekdays... I was wondering what to do if it was a thief.” |
| Kota | “Oh, I have a friend staying over for a little while.” |
| Izumi | “Is that so?” |
| |
| Franz | “I didn’t think I’d meet someone of the same kind in a place like this.” |
| Reo | “It became convenient here recently. It’s not so uncommon.” |
| Kota | “Reo!” |
| Reo | “——” |
| Franz | “Looks like you’ve found a nice bed.” |
| Reo | “He has nothing to do with it.” |
| Kota | “Heeey, Reo!” |
| Reo | “——” |
| Franz | “We’re acquainted now. Might as well get along.” |
| Reo | “I have no intention of getting friendly.” |
| Kota | “What’s up with him...” |
| Nonomiya | “Is that the freeloader? I knew it, he’s got to be suspicious. Probably part of a crime syndicate or something.” |
| Kota | “He’s not that kind of guy... But I wonder why he ignored me.” |
| Izumi | (Franz is a vampire like Reo...) |
| (Hisoka-san has always had an other-worldly air to him, but this time he’s consciously evoking a similar aura with Azuma-san.) |
| (He really is good.) |
| |
| Reo | “I was in your care for a long time. I didn’t mean to overstay, but it just felt so comfortable here.” |
| Kota | “You don’t have to be in such a hurry to leave. You helped me out too, after all.” |
| Reo | “That’s not true.” |
| Kota | “Have you decided on a place to live?” |
| Reo | “Yeah, more or less.” |
| Izumi | (The two of them maintain a reasonable distance between each other...) |
| (Kota is worried about Reo but he doesn’t ask; Reo is hiding something but he keeps quiet... Their complicated relationship is really showing.) |
| (It’s because this is Azuma-san and Tasuku-san that they can bring out this sense of distance.) |
| Kota | “Tell me your contact details.” |
| Reo | “I’ll tell you when things have settled.” |
| Kota | “Okay. I’m glad you found a place.” |
| Reo | “I’m really grateful to you. Thank you.” |
| Kota | “You’re leaving now? Who leaves at this hour? Do it tomorrow morning.” |
| Reo | “...Right.” |
| Kota | “To celebrate your fresh start, let’s drink the night away.” |
