19

It's New Years! The Ichinoses are heading to their relatives' house until the 4th, and Yotsuya is off to God-knows-where. Akemi invites Godai to watch television with her and Kyoko. However, this gets him scheming about finally making a move on Kyoko. When Akemi's friends call to invite her on a ski trip, Akemi accepts, but leaves Kyoko paranoid by her warnings about Godai. Over the course of the night, Godai tries making a move, but his conscience keeps getting the better of him. When Kyoko temporarily leaves to turn off the Ichinose's pilot-light, Godai yells that he "wants to do it", meaning make a move on Kyoko. However, Kyoko hears this and Godai quickly lies that he's jealous of Akemi going skiing, something he wanted to do. Kyoko accepts this and finally calms down; after the start of the New Year, Godai goes to bed, upset that he chickened out. However, Kyoko is impressed by what a gentleman he's been, deciding to "take him". She knocks on Godai's door, making him half-expect she's going to sleep with him; however, she's actually inviting him to visit the temple. Knowing that he shouldn't have expected that, Godai agrees and prays that Kyoko will be his this year. (Source: Wikipedia)
