Ep. 8: Maeda visits the public bath with Chie-chan and Reiko.
Aired on February 28, 2016

Maeda accompanies Chie-chan and Reiko to a newly opened public bath. The facility is unexpectedly crowded with elderly men, who appear to be there specifically for Chie-chan. While bathing, the group discovers that the walls are thin enough to allow them to overhear the conversation between Chie-chan and Reiko in the adjacent room if they listen closely. This situation creates an awkward atmosphere as the older patrons seem focused on Chie-chan, while the others are privy to private discussions happening next door.
