When he and his friends get to know that Shiemi has passed the entrance exam to get into the academy, the next day, Rin jumps into the idea of asking her out for the dance. But it turns out that Shiemi wants to ask Yukio for the dance, which he turns down as he has signed himself as a staff for the festival.
Rin feels miserable and dejected about it. It is also seen that Paku reveals to a blond-haired girl about Rin’s dance partner choice which creates an interest for her.
