During the second Christmas since Kyoko's arrival, Godai attempts to purchase a gift for the manager. He initially selects earrings but mistakenly gives them to Kozue because he has not yet ended their relationship. Fortunately, Godai finds a gift he gave Kyoko the previous year hidden under his desk. Kyoko is delighted to receive the brooch. During this exchange, Godai discovers that he is only two years younger than Kyoko. The episode focuses on this gift confusion and the revelation of their age difference.
