22. Bölüm: Godai, Kyoko'nun kiracılara istifa ettiğini duyduğunda şok geçirir

22

Kyoko visits her parents, the Chigusas, who want her to quit being manager of Maison Ikkoku and come back home. However, she tells them she won't and begins to think of all the positive things about the house she likes. Attempting to fix the balcony, she nearly falls to her death; however, Godai saves her with a loving embrace. Annoyed that the tenants aren't nice and have trouble paying their rent on time, Kyoko discovers termites have begun infesting the building. Calling in an exterminator and contractors, Kyoko watches as Ikkoku is fixed up. At the same time, Godai wants the hole, which Yotsuya uses to invade his privacy, sealed. Yutsuya threatens to reveal he's heard Godai call out Kyoko's name at night while doing "something"; Godai lets him call it out, thinking that Kyoko is outside and can't hear due to a passing plane. However, Kyoko was at the foot of the stairs and asks Godai to clean his room so the hole can be repaired and Yotsuya can't reveal anymore secrets. When Kyoko is late one night, Mrs. Chigusa arrives and informs the tenants (Godai, Mrs. Ichinose, and Yotsuya) that Kyoko has quit her job. (Source: Wikipedia)
