A super fan of Kano named Mei enters the cafe and offers Kano 100,000 yen. Mei explains she recognized Kano from the livestream and insists Kano return to the idol industry. Kano rebuffs Mei and hands her the money back, stating that she is done with the idol industry. Heading back home, Kano realizes Mei and her bags got swapped.
