Rio reveals her internal conflict regarding her body image, where her desire for attention manifests as a separate clone. After receiving a threatening message at the train station, she asks Sakuta to accompany her home. That evening, Sakuta invites Yuma, and the trio enjoys fireworks on the beach before planning to attend a festival. The following day, the clone at Sakuta’s house flees, prompting him to search for her in the rain. He locates her at school, but she collapses from a cold. In the hospital, Sakuta encourages Rio to accept herself. She then contacts her other self, inviting her to the festival, which leads to the two identities merging into one.
