Synopsis

Chiaki began seeking out new talent, extending an invitation to Kuroki for an audition. Meanwhile, Rui found herself compelled by her mother, Mrs. Son, to leave Paris. News from Madame Bellou – perhaps their landlady – had reached her, detailing Rui’s perceived lack of diligence and frequent visits to Chiaki's. Elsewhere, Nodame rehearsed for her exams at the conservatoire, sharing the space with Kuroki and Paul duBois.
